Chapter 59: The Counterattack Begins
Ji Wenping held his long sword and stepped hard, leaving a deep footprint on the ground with each step. His speed grew faster and faster, and the distance between him and the behemoth was rapidly decreasing, until the massive body of the Terrecosaurus took over his entire view.
Just as he was about to crash into the beast's scaly skin, Gilvin slammed into the ground, leaped high, and slashed his sword straight at Lu Xinglong's ankle.
The black blade touched the scales of the Walker Dragon, and those sturdy dragon scales cracked in an instant, scattering in all directions, exposing the skin beneath the scales. Immediately afterward, the flesh of the giant beast was torn apart by the blade, and the dragon's blood splattered outward along the wound. Eventually, the blade of the sword slammed into the beast's leg bones, and only a click was heard, and countless bone fragments mixed with blood erupted along the gaps in the blade.
"Whew!"
The sharp pain in the back ankle made Lu Xinglong wail, and its body sank backwards suddenly, almost falling. Lu Xinglong dragged his injured leg and staggered around, its head poked in anger, it was looking for the creature that dared to sneak up on him.
But what caught the eyes of the giant beast was an inconspicuous villain, holding a long sword, and was rushing towards him.
Lu Xinglong roared and lowered his head, opened his big mouth, and stretched his neck, it wanted to tear the little man apart in one bite.
Ji Wen raised his head and saw Lu Xinglong's ugly head rushing straight towards him. The two rows of sharp fangs in its mouth were clearly visible.
Jiwen didn't panic, he adjusted his breathing, raised the long sword above his head with both hands, and then calmly estimated the distance between the dragon's head and himself.
After the sword just now, Jiwen has completely believed in the power of this long sword in his hand, it is enough to match Lu Xinglong, and it can help him save Quintus!
At the moment when the dragon's mouth was about to bite Jiwen, Jiwen used all his strength to smash the long sword down.
The heavy black blade combined with the strength of Jiwen smashed the dragon's head into the ground, forming a deep pit. The wound on the upper jaw of the giant beast was deep in the bones, and the originally sharp teeth were all broken by the impact, and Lu Xinglong's entire mouth was full of wounds, and the splattered dragon blood drenched Jiwen's body.
The pain was so severe that the beast could not even make a wailing sound, and its forelimbs went limp, and its body leaned forward, and it fell to its knees at once.
Jiwen didn't plan to let this guy go, in the forbidden god space that can be restored indefinitely, only death can buy him enough time. Stepping onto the dragon's broken nosebone, Givens jumped on top of the dragon's head in two steps, and raised his sword again against the piece of flesh between its eyes.
Lu Xinglong looked at the villain in front of him and the strange long sword in his hand in horror. At such a close distance, it already recognized the sword. The strange blade and unforgettable pain evoke memories of a terrifying summoning it had come from countless years ago.
In that battle countless years ago, the humanoid Reaper seemed to be holding the same sword, severing the necks of himself and countless summoned beasts.
Lu Xinglong began to regret it, and it thought bitterly, why didn't he recognize this sword just now!
It began to writhe in an attempt to escape.
But it was in vain, and Givens had already lifted the greatsword and stabbed it down with all his might.
The blade swallowed up the splatters of blood, and the long blade instantly sank into the top of the land gamer's head.
The body of the giant beast under Jiwen's feet was trembling, spasmoming, and the sharp pain of tearing made the giant beast desperately want to raise its head, trying to escape from this hell of death. But Jiwen pressed the sword body tightly, he grabbed the hilt of the sword with both hands, twisted it with all his strength, and the broad blade immediately writhed wantonly in the wound on the top of the giant dragon's head.
Finally, a desperate roar came from the beast's throat, and the body at Given's feet stopped moving after one of the most violent spasms.
With a loud bang, the beast's body collapsed to the ground, and it had to go through a long recovery before it could regenerate from death and get back on its feet.
Seeing that Lu Xinglong finally died, Ji Wen pulled out his blood-stained long sword and looked around.
The storm caused by the giant beast has completely stopped. The storm blew out a white island in this sea of swords and armor, and Lu Xinglong's corpse was twisted and lying on this white clearing with a radius of hundreds of meters, which was extremely conspicuous.
Nervous, excited, excited?
Givens couldn't describe the state of mind at the moment.
He'd just defeated that land walking dragon, defeating that gigantic beast that was so huge that it seemed to be unmatched!
He looked at the long sword in his hand, the body and hilt of the long sword were inlaid with more than a dozen spars of different colors like crystal disks, and these spars and those unique black patterns on the sword body formed a strange pattern. Those black arcs of energy were surging around the hedron array. At the end of the sword, a word was inscribed in Elven language, which Givin remembered seemed to mean fate.
Is it also your own destiny to get this sword?
Jiwen involuntarily clenched the hilt of his sword, firmly grasped the longsword that had brought him victory with both hands, and then raised it into the air, swinging a huge arc.
The heavy blade of the sword, piercing the air, let out a huge roar.
With that loud bang in the air, the excitement of victory, the excitement of gaining new power, then rose from Jiwen's heart, converged into a shout, jumped into the air, and vibrated Jiwen's own eardrums.
"We won!"
A few hundred meters away in the air from Jiwen, a flying carpet was slowly approaching. On that flying carpet, Harvey was sitting next to Quintus the Birdman, barely believing what he was seeing.
"He actually won. Harvey touched his forehead and muttered.
Just now, while Jiwen was fighting with Lu Xinglong, Harvey scooped the unconscious Quintus onto the flying carpet. Covered in blood, Quintus had now regained consciousness slightly, and he opened his eyes with difficulty, looking at Jiwen in the distance, who was waving his hand at the giant beast's body, and smiled dismally.
"Harvey, he's not just a blacksmith, he's a hero. ”
"Heroes, heroes are fools. Let's pick up the fool first. ”
Harvey shook his head, manipulated the flying carpet, and leaned towards Given.
After dealing with the giant beast, Jiwen and his party hurriedly evacuated the Dragon Plain.
Because the strange sword was too heavy for Harvey's flying carpet to bear, Givin finally had to hold the sword and follow Harvey's flying carpet far away to start the long walk home.
After an arduous trek, Givens finally returned to the goblin second-hand store with the "prey" of this flying carpet.
Givens built a makeshift fence in the square to keep the sloth dolphins inside. Jiwen looked at the hundreds of sloth beasts he got this time, and he was full of emotion.
Although he knew that this could not be all the sloth dolphins in this world, as long as there was only one summoned beast used by the Sodima Summoning Academy, or even one summoned beast of the summoner in Sodima City, then his plan could be successful!
Harvey sent Quintus to his room to rest and returned to the square. He looked at these lazy sleeping sloth dolphins, and asked puzzledly: "We have worked so hard to get these lazy guys back, what should we do now, let them deliver the letter for you? Even if you put a strip of cloth on them to call the police, no summoner will take it seriously." ”
"Then let them take it seriously, and if they think it's important, they'll do it. Givens replied.
"Risking your life to call the police? Not every summoner is so enthusiastic and idle. Harvey disagreed.
Jiwen looked at Harvey's appearance, and then whispered: "I'm not asking them to call the police, but making them think that a golden egg has fallen from the sky!"
Givens had already drawn up a plan. He wants to make the summoners think that he has won the lottery, and then willingly bring the news to the summoning academy.
For human beings, the instinct to believe that golden eggs fall from the sky has never been wiped out, and a baseless winning text message can make countless aunts willingly send half of their life savings to scammers. Givens believes that these elves, who look like humans, should be no exception.
Givens explained the whole plan to Harvey, and old Harvey's expression changed from initial disdain to surprise, and his eyes flashed with the characteristic essence of merchants.
"That sounds good! My cousin in Treasure Cove has been using this similar trick to deceive people. ”
"But I still need your help, Harvey, go ahead and put on the Firefiend's glove, I'll be waiting for you at the blacksmith. ”
There is no paper in this world, and sending messages with those garbage rags will only make this scam a goof, and in order to make the alarm look like a magical masterpiece of the Summoning Academy, Givens has to find a high-end and atmospheric information carrier.
Givens went to the blacksmith's shop, picked out a hard, flat piece of metal, and carved an Elven phrase into it.
"You are lucky enough to be chosen by magic as a lucky summoner. If you send this voucher to Dean Curzon of the Sodima City Summoning Academy, you will receive a generous gift of appreciation and a priceless gift of spells. To make sure you're the winner, you also need to remember the code: at the Archon's villa, Enya took Adelia with her. “
In the last sentence, Givens changed the word order slightly, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the summoners. However, he believed that Elder Curzon should be able to understand the meaning of those words.
After finishing the seal-like piece of metal, Harvey appeared with the Firefiend's Gauntlet.
Givens found the small pieces of metal in the blacksmith's shop, and asked Harvey to quickly melt the pieces of metal into a soft red state with the hands of the fire demon, and then beat them flat with a blacksmith's hammer to form a thin sheet. Finally, when the metal sheet has not completely cooled and solidified, the metal sheet is squeezed heavily with that temporary metal seal. Once cooled, a clear inscription was formed on the metal sheet.
With Harvey's cooperation, Given's efficiency was very high, and in a short time he made hundreds of beautiful metal inscriptions. Givens drilled holes in pieces of metal of various sizes and tied ropes to the backs or stomachs of the sloths.
When all this was done, Givens had time to sit down next to the square and take a break.
Now that everything is in place, there is only one last thing left.
"What are you going to do now?" asked the goblin Harvey, looking at the glittering golden sloth dolphins in front of him.
"It's nothing, just waiting for the summoners to summon them, I hope there are many children who are new to summoning recently. Givan replied,
"And now, are you just waiting here?"
"No, I'll go and rebuild a cuirass for Quintus, and then I'll do my best to do as much work as I can in the shop these days. ”
Givens knew that both Quintus and Harvey had risked their lives to help him today, and that he should repay them in some way.
"Hmph, you still have a little conscience. Harvey, the old goblin, grinned, and as the two spoke, Harvey noticed that the number of sloth dolphins in the enclosure seemed to be decreasing, and at least a dozen of them had disappeared.
He hurriedly pulled Jiwen over, and then pointed to the gap left by the disappearance of the sloth dolphin in the fence, reminding excitedly.
"Your plan is going to succeed!"
