Killing the US fear starts from the fatal bend

Chapter 16 The Scarecrow of Fear
The ability of this scary scarecrow is more difficult than the mountain ogre I encountered before. Except for a little thicker skin and thicker flesh, plus bloodthirsty terror, the ogre can basically be regarded as a man-eating and intelligent beast. There aren't many supernatural elements.The Scarecrow's two skills are very strong in supernatural elements. Compared with the ogre, it is like the gap between a noble mage and a bitter warrior.

But the noble Faye Scarecrow has a fatal flaw-it cannot move.

After seeing the Scarecrow and learning about its abilities, Luke has a preliminary guess about what happened on the farm during this time.

This monster should have been just an ordinary scarecrow before, but due to the breath of the abyss that came from nowhere, by chance, it was alienated into a scary scarecrow, and possessed a certain amount of wisdom.

It first drove the crows to attack and kill the livestock on the ranch. After a few times, the farm employee Tom suspected that someone was making trouble and reported the situation to Mason by phone, and the Masons returned to the farm.

After several attempts and trials, it found that the nearby humans had no means of dealing with the dreaded crow, and its actions gradually escalated.

In the end, it chose to surround the farm with [Remove the Fog] when Refite and his son came to visit the farm.

People inside the farm can't get out, and people outside can't come in, creating an isolated environment inside and outside, and summoning fearful crows to harass and attack, trying to stimulate the fear of the besieged people in the farm to the greatest extent.

Fortunately, Mason and the others were lucky, and discovered the slight restraint of the salt bomb on the dreaded crow's virtualization ability by mistake, and possessed a certain self-protection ability, and Luke felt it very timely. Not long after being besieged, Just in time to save them.

Otherwise, in a few days, Mason and the others will be trapped and unable to escape, coupled with the frequent attacks of the crows, they will inevitably gradually fall into despair, allowing the scarecrow to collect more fear emotions, thus further strengthening the crows, harming and even killing them. Someone on the farm dies, which then leads to even greater fear and despair, creating a vicious cycle.

After thinking about it this way, the sudden attack of the fearful crow last night also had an explanation.

Because of Luke's arrival, several people trapped in the farm learned the news from the outside world, knowing that the outside police station was already paying attention to the farm and trying to carry out rescue.Seeing his extraordinary ability again, listening to him tell about the record of killing this strange crow, my heart was inspired a lot, and my fear naturally weakened.

The Scarecrow of Fear felt that the fear of the harvest had decreased, so he sent the crows to observe and intimidate, but there was no gain. In order to arouse the fear of the besieged humans, he simply launched an attack directly.

After the dread crows were all eliminated, the scarecrow lost the means to directly attack humans, and could not collect fear emotions. It may be to temporarily hide himself and avoid the window period of losing summoning objects. Dispersed, trying to pretend that the incident was completely over, making Luke and others relax their vigilance.

As Luke approached, the Scarecrow of Dread seemed to realize that he had been discovered, but all the crows summoned were killed, and there is no way to re-summon them at present. The Scarecrow, who has no ability to move, can only try to use [Fog Repelling] to automatically Save.

A layer of faint mist suddenly appeared, and rapidly expanded, becoming thicker and thicker.

Mason and the others who were waiting outside the farm saw the fog suddenly reappear, and shouted anxiously inside: "Luke, be careful, come out."

Luke didn't care.

He already knew the details of this scarecrow, so naturally he would not be afraid.The fog couldn't drive him out when it was the thickest, let alone the thin layer now.

Luke realized that he had been spotted by the scarecrow, so he stopped pretending and rushed towards the scarecrow. After getting within one meter, he raised the Winchester in his hand, and his spiritual energy surged up, bringing a roaring Thunder flames swung the stick and hit the scarecrow hard on the head.

The scarecrow couldn't move, there was no way to avoid it, so he had no choice but to eat the attack forcefully, the hat on his head was blown away, and the straw filling his face was also ignited by the thunder fire, and began to burn with black air.

Enemies that can't move and counterattack are awesome!
This scarecrow didn't talk about martial arts before, so he came to cheat and attack Mason, a 50-year-old man.

Luke backhanded a set of Lightning Five Cudgels, keeping the sticks close to the vitals of the head.

The straw anthropomorphic head was hit repeatedly by thunder fire and huge force, and finally couldn't stand it. A burst of thick black smoke dissipated, and the thunder fire that erupted with psionic energy completely ignited the scarecrow's head, and then the tongue of fire went all the way down the head and swallowed it , its body seemed to be doused with gasoline, and it burned violently, and the dense fog that had just overflowed around it immediately dissipated.

Get it!

Ability seedlings also appeared in due course, and a burst of gravitational force appeared, absorbing the energy left behind by the scarecrow from the void.

[Level] From level 2 (38%) to level 2 (86%)

In addition, in the absorbed energy, a light spot appeared flickeringly, and after spinning twice in the sky above the ability seedling, it went straight to the seedling.Another leaf grew quietly on the seedling, and Luke understood it. This is the skill [Dread Crow].

Mason and the others who were waiting anxiously saw the intense thunder and the fog dissipate from a distance. They guessed that the incident was over, and hurried to Luke's side.

Looking at the caring and inquiring eyes of everyone, Luke grinned, hugged his worried mother, and said, "It's all done."

The haze in everyone's hearts was swept away, and little Potter jumped up happily and shouted: "Long live Brother Luke!
After a strange change took place in the Scarecrow of Dread, the burning was also different from that of ordinary straw, leaving no ashes at all.

After a brief wrap-up and another round of patrol around the farm, the six of them went to Cheng County to rest for a day.

The next day, Tom and Refett returned to their respective farms to tend the crops.The Masons decided to stay in Cheng County to buy some livestock cubs. The farm's livestock were almost exhausted and needed to be replenished urgently.

Luke returned to Phoenix. Although only three days had passed since the one-week vacation, Mrs. Lillian insisted that Luke needed to return to school as soon as possible to catch up with the courses he had taken. ", but still can't disobey my mother's long-term emphasis on academics.

After all, the lighthouse country at this time has not yet developed into a happy education, and the anti-intellectual trend is serious, and the society still has a natural admiration for scientists and other intellectuals.So what if you are good at beating, now you come out to play around because you want to talk about your education and certificates, and you can't even get into a university, so you will be good at beating.
