Right after she said that, the Red Eye Scorpion King roared and charged toward Darryl at an unimaginably high speed.
Darryl had the blood-drinking sword in his hand; he aimed it at the scorpion.
Darryl could not use his internal energy as the strong vibration might cause the ancient tomb to collapse. He had no choice but to use a weapon. No matter how strong the shell, the blood-drinking sword should be able to pierce through it.
Roar!
The king scorpion roared in pain as the blood -drinking sword pierced through its shell. It swept Darryl up, and he flew through the air.
Bang!
Darryl flew more than ten feet, and he landed on his stomach. Fresh blood sprayed from his lips.
The Red Eye King Scorpion raised its tail and aimed it at Darryl.
“Watch out, Darryl!” Yvette shouted.
Darryl sweated. The scorpion’s tail was poisonous. The Red Eye King Scorpion was the king of the scorpions, so its poison could be worse. He might not survive it.
Darryl wanted to hide, but it was too late; the Red Eye King Scorpion was too fast for him.
It pierced its tail into Darryl’s back and released the venom into his body.
“Argh!” Darryl shouted in pain. At the same time, he pierced his sword into the giant scorpion and took its life. The scorpion struggled on the ground and for a short while before it became motionless. It had died.
Darryl held his fists tightly. He felt numb on his back, and then he could no longer feel his body. He paled.
The next second, Darryl dropped onto the ground as he shook uncontrollably.
“Darryl! How are you feeling?” Yvette rushed toward him.
Darryl’s lips quivered, but he could not speak. His whole body felt weak. Would he die?
Darryl’s heart was filled with regrets. He thought that he would find treasures in the ancient tomb. He did not expect to see a Red Eye King Scorpion before he could find the treasure. He also did not foresee that a scorpion would poison him.
