The first stop of Dashibi is the gathering place of needle aphids.

Needle attacks are often the nemesis of hard armor.

So even with [hardening], Li Pu didn't dare to confront them head-on.

Fortunately, beside me, there is also the nemesis of needles, the straw man.

"It's up to you this time."

So after attracting the needle aphids, Li Pu decided to stand by and watch.

【Choo Choo Choo! 】xN

At this time, these needle aphids were standing on the edge of the rock and soil area, staring at each person and grass.

They have long, needle-like mouthparts and have weird calls.

【Grass! 】

Straw Man: Summoner, you can rest assured!

It is a rare opportunity to show itself, and it feels very happy.

"By the way, you can try that trick."

While retreating, Li Pu did not forget to give advice.

[Sloppy! 】

Hearing this, the grass man couldn't help but his eyes lit up slightly.

Because from the telepathy it conveyed, it already knew which trick the summoner was referring to.

Now these needle aphids gather there like a target, it is a good time to use 【Snail Grass】!

To be precise, it should be [Snail Grass] + [Little Fireball].

Regarding the [Snail Grass] skill, Li Pu and the grass man also went through many trials and experiments, and they basically understood its nature.

Without interference, this is indeed a very powerful explosive skill.

The so-called non-disturbance means that the slow motion state of the straw man cannot be broken.

For example, when it is swinging the [Snail Grass] Slow Fist, if it falls down or is broken by an external force, the slow state will be terminated immediately, wasting the energy of using the skill in vain.

Li Pu tried to throw the straw man, and also tried to pick it up and swing it directly, but as long as it breaks its original slow state, it will cause the [snail grass] to fail.

But [Snail Grass] + [Small Fireball], it is possible.

It's just that [Small Fireball] at that time was only an F-level skill, and although its power had been amplified, it was still not enough.

I don't know if there will be a relatively large enhancement after being promoted to C-level now.

【口~begging~aoao~wood~cao~】

Ever since, the straw man started to rub fireballs from a distance of several meters.

Originally [Small Fireball] was slow, even after being promoted to C level, it was still not that instant skill.

Now rubbing in the state of [Snail Grass], it will be even slower and slower.

After a full 30 seconds, the grassroots rubbed out the flames.

But this time the faint blue flames were much stronger than before, almost completely covering the two grass hands of the grass man.

It's just that even though it became so huge compared to before, Li Pu still didn't feel the slightest bit of burning heat.

[Mouth~begging~aoao~mu~cao! ! 】

Almost 30 seconds later, the straw man finally released.

It pushed forward with both hands, and a round ball of fire not much smaller than itself floated out.

If you take a closer look, it is still the Q version of the straw man, with the hands replaced by wings.

[Grass stick! 】

Under the control of the grass man, the enlarged Q version of the little grass bird flew out.

"Fortunately..."

Seeing this scene, Li Pu heaved a long sigh of relief.

The worst-case scenario he had envisioned did not materialize.

That is, if the [Small Fireball] played with [Snail Grass] is also a slowed down version, it will be difficult.

Fortunately, the speed of the little grass bird was not affected.

At this time, it swooped down and landed on the place where the needle aphids were densest.

Boom!

A large number of faint blue fireworks exploded immediately, not only belching the five or six needle aphids hit in the front, but also setting a lot of needle aphids around on fire.

【Choo Choo Choo! 】xN

For a moment, the entire needle aphid group became chaotic, and a few lonely ones on the edge began to retreat towards the big stone wall.

On the other end, Li Pu was observing the effect of this faint blue flame.

He didn't let the straw man try because he was afraid of burning the rice bag by mistake.

So until now, it is the first actual combat effect display after the [Little Fireball] upgrade.

"It's quite different from what I imagined."

Observing the chaotic situation of the needle aphid, he muttered to himself.

Originally thought that the current [Small Fireball] is a move of fire attribute + ice attribute, so it may cause the target to be slowed down by frost.

Actually, not at all.

I don't know how to describe the characteristics of this faint blue flame.

Li Pu observed for a while, and concluded that it was sticky.

This is a viscous flame.

Once those needle aphids touch them, they will stick to them and continue to burn.

The needle aphids tried to put out the fire by rolling or spraying insect juice at each other, but the effect was not satisfactory.

It seems that compared with ordinary flames, this faint blue flame has no temperature, but it is difficult to extinguish.

[Grass is awesome! 】

Straw Man: Summoner, the Materia Medica has become stronger!

Seeing the results of his trick, the straw man was very happy.

The 5 needle aphids that were hit head-on directly burped, and 7 were subsequently burned to death or dying, not counting those who suffered moderate and mild burns.

"It really worked hard this time."

"If I knew this earlier, I wouldn't need to learn [hardening]."

"Just let you rub the fireballs from a distance, and you can always wipe them out one by one."

"Safe and labor-saving, save my effort."

Li Pu patted the grass man on the shoulder, feeling very relieved.

But he is relieved that fortunately, the needle-like mouthparts of these needle aphids are relatively strong in flame resistance.

Even though the wreckage was almost burned away, the mouthparts were still preserved~lightnovelpub.net~Of course, he is also satisfied with the power of [Snail Grass Fireball].

The straw man has become more and more like a mage, but his goal is to cultivate this guy into a powerful summoned beast with both magic and martial arts, so now it can only be regarded as the first step.

After a fireball attack, the needle aphids were in chaos, and Li Pu planned to finish the battle as soon as possible without giving them time to retreat.

"Okay, let's go."

So he patted the straw man again.

【Grass! 】

Said that the straw man received, rushed into the swarm of insects in a few strides.

【Choo Choo Choo! 】xN

Seeing the murderer who killed their own people rushing in, all the needle aphids rushed over.

However, they soon discovered a terrible fact, the straw man in front of them was not afraid of their needles at all!

No matter from which position or angle it is pierced, it is like piercing the air, causing no harm at all!

But the other party punched and kicked them until their heads exploded!

【Grass! 】

【Choo Choo Choo! 】

【hastily! 】

【Choo Choo Choo! 】

[Sloppy! 】

【Choo Choo Choo! 】

On one side is the sonorous and powerful roar of grass, on the other side is the sound of resistance that is getting weaker and weaker.

The grass man felt that he had never been so powerful, like a big grass.

"Hey, don't break their needles."

However, the voice from outside the arena reminded the boss that someone else was there.

Knock!

At this time, a large needle aphid was blown up by the straw man.

It seemed like something had fallen out.
