Chapter 646: Unexpected Size
The system hadn't specified the size of the Rock Monster in its introduction.
So Qin Feng was very surprised when he saw this Rock Monster.
Because the size of this Rock Monster couldn't be called the behemoth he had imagined.
Instead, it was a monster smaller than a human, about the size of an antelope.
It was about half a person's height.
It was lying on the ground, crawling on all fours.
Its head was like a round ball, with no ears, no eyes, no nose, and no mouth.
Its body was flat and long, somewhat like a goat's body, and its limbs were short and thick.
Qin Feng thought it looked more like pig trotters.
In short, it was a "four-unlike" creature.
This really surprised Qin Feng.
He didn't know if it was influenced by anime, novels, television, or movies.
When the name "Rock Monster" was mentioned, Qin Feng subconsciously assumed it was a humanoid, giant monster made of rock.
At least several meters tall, walking upright like a human.
Eyes like copper bells, mouth breathing fire, body emitting lava.
Facts proved that Qin Feng had overthought it.
"Do all Rock Monsters look like this?"
Although seeing is believing, Qin Feng still felt a bit disillusioned.
He couldn't help but ask the three teenagers beside him,
although they should also be seeing a Rock Monster for the first time.
"The forms of Rock Monsters described in textbooks are diverse.
Some are smaller in size, perhaps only the size of a rabbit.
Others are as tall as several tens of meters.
Some crawl and run on all fours, while others walk upright, looking like humans.
But regardless of the form, the body of a Rock Monster is composed of rock, so it is still easy to identify."
Qin Feng's question didn't make them feel strange.
After all, looking at Qin Feng's previous performance, it was clear he didn't know much about Rock Monsters.
"Mr. Qin Feng, judging by the size of this Rock Monster, its strength is likely around Tier 3 or Tier 4 Chosen."
"A Rock Monster of this strength is still very difficult for us to handle, so please be careful."
Perhaps because Qin Feng lacked knowledge about Rock Monsters, they were afraid Qin Feng would be careless and get injured or even die, so Lilith gave a very thoughtful reminder before the battle.
Qin Feng nodded without answering Lilith.
This wasn't because Qin Feng was aloof or putting on airs.
It was because, during their conversation, the Rock Monster, which was still in the distance, had already detected their presence.
And it was charging toward them at high speed.
The speed of Rock Monsters is generally not fast, but that doesn't mean all Rock Monsters are slow.
After all, the forms of Rock Monsters are strange, and their abilities are strange, and this ability seems to be related to the place where they were born.
For a Tier 3 or Tier 4 monster, this speed was already very fast.
At least its speed was definitely on par with Qin Feng's.
And Qin Feng's speed among Tier 3 Chosen should be considered among the best.
Although he hadn't practiced any excellent light-body techniques or undergone specialized training,
due to his experience and physical fitness, his senses were far stronger than those of cultivators at the same level. So his speed naturally kept up.
Qin Feng saw the Rock Monster charging, and the others naturally saw it too.
Since the distance was still far, there was no situation where someone was caught off guard and immediately injured.
Instead, everyone immediately scattered to avoid being wiped out by the Rock Monster.
Although the four of them dodged the Rock Monster's impact due to the distance,
the speed of this Rock Monster clearly surprised Lilith and the others.
At the same time, their faces turned pale, feeling that this quest would probably be difficult to complete,
and even whether they could retreat unscathed was a question.
After all, although the speed of this Rock Monster was on par with Qin Feng's, for them, it was already too fast.
It was fine at a distance, but at close range, they wouldn't be able to dodge at all.
Let alone fight.
Because these Rock Monsters are species naturally born between heaven and earth,
they can hardly be considered living beings, and they have no intelligence.
They only know how to destroy everything in front of them.
So it didn't have the behavior of picking the softest target.
Instead, it chose to attack the closest person.
As for why it attacked Qin Feng and the others instead of the flowers, grass, and trees around them,
that's because for Rock Monsters, they prioritize attacking things that move.
If there were other moving animals with Qin Feng and the others,
the Rock Monster might very well abandon Qin Feng and the others and prioritize those faster-moving animals as its primary target.
Although all four of them dodged the Rock Monster's impact in time, it was clear that Qin Feng's speed was undoubtedly the fastest.
