Chapter 76: Good mercenaries don't fight dragons
Hanks bluntly expressed his doubts: "The question is, can the voice of the old man in the Spirit Gathering Temple, as well as the images shown to His Highness, be completely true? Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoYou must know that if Your Highness is not in Lars for a day, your control over the domestic army will be weakened by a point. If this continues, it will only give opportunities to those careerists with bad intentions in China. β
Hearing this, Tina asked the other party a series of disapproving questions: "The old mage's voice and image cannot be guaranteed to be real. But this corrupted dragon below the mountain must be real, right? The barrier of the Spirit Gathering Temple is also real, right?
Faithful, distrustful of outsiders, and always on high alert, Hanks expressed his guess: "Is this corrupted dragon really unkillable? He and Sean of the Eastern Route Army colluded with each other in an attempt to lure His Highness to Arebis in order to achieve their goal of gradually controlling all the armies in Lars. β
Tina immediately found many unreasonable logical flaws in Hanks's words, and refuted them one by one: "Whether the corrupted dragon can be killed or not, we will find out if we try it immediately." As for your guess, there are a lot of loopholes. First of all, the mysterious merchant is so strong.
If he and Sean were in the same group, why didn't he go out and deal with us with the many amphibious pirates in the Bahanna Strait? Instead, he would have gone to great lengths to lure us to Arebis? Second, he had only stayed in the Spirit Gathering Temple for such a short time to be able to concoct a corrupted dragon, a dragon-shaped pillar, and a temple barrier that had existed there for a long time, which was too miraculous, right?"
Although Hanks was almost speechless by Tina, he still insisted on some of his arguments: "This... Even if all the inferences of the subordinates are wrong. However, the corrupted dragon doesn't look like a swimmer, and it shouldn't be able to reach Lars. Moreover, Sean will inevitably continue to strengthen his control over the domestic army during His Royal Highness's absence. Therefore, His Majesty thought that His Highness should first do his best to deal with all the problems of Lars, and then go to Arebis. β
Tina expressed her judgment unusually calmly: "The problem is that we haven't figured out a way to deal with the invasion of the First Army of the Republic of Vosfitta. In such a situation, even if you return to China and firmly control the army, what can you do?
However, the Corrupt Dragons are a looming threat to the Isle of Salt, and a catastrophe that we can all prevent now. Moreover, it was the mysterious merchant who brought us to this place. Maybe we'll meet with the elven elders and destroy the corrupted dragons, and the problem Lars is facing will be solved. β
On the way to escape from the corrupted dragon, Leonard had already seriously pondered many questions in his mind, and the images of Tux, the mysterious merchant, and a certain man in black repeatedly appeared in his mind, so he took the initiative to say to Hanks in a very rare way:
"Hanks. Let's be honest. Everything in this world seems to be in the dark, with its own fixed number. Faced with the invasion of the First Army under the old man's command, Tina's stay away from Lars, which may be the safest option. The Republic of Vosfita is a country dominated by the elves. We are going to visit the elders of the elven race, maybe we can really usher in some turnaround, maybe we can usher in something. β
When Hanks heard this, he also agreed with Leonard's words in an unusually rare way: "If this evil dragon really can't be killed." I'll listen to you. β
Rosie, who heard this conversation, couldn't help but burst into tears of gratitude, and while thanking him loudly, he was about to kneel down in front of the friends at the scene: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness! Thank you for your great help! In the face of such a heavy kindness, I only want to express my gratitude to you on behalf of all the amphibians of Sark Island..."
Seeing this, Tina hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out her hand and held Rossi's arm tightly, and while preventing the other party from kneeling, she persuaded the prince of the amphibious tribe rigorously and to the point: "Your Royal Highness, you must not do this. Lars had concluded a treaty of alliance with the Kingdom of the Sarke. The two countries will work together to deal with all natural and man-made disasters. Therefore, what we have to do is nothing more than to fulfil our obligatory obligations. β
Hearing this, Crotty also stepped forward and echoed Tina: "The corrupted dragon is not only a threat to the amphibians of Sark Island, but also to the life and death of the people of the continent of Farusion and even the entire world. As a resident of the mainland, it is also the responsibility of everyone to get rid of this evil dragon. β
Seeing this, the howl looked around at the faces of everyone at the scene, and replied to Rosie in a heroic tone: "What is there to thank for this? In order to uphold justice, destroy this evil monster." Isn't that what everyone should do?"
When Rosie heard this, she couldn't help but choke up and spit out her heartfelt words: "I... It's really... Thank you so much... I swear... As long as I'm alive in this world for a day... You will always be the guests of the Kingdom of Sark, my best friend of Rosie!"
In the end, Leonard concluded with his own set of philosophical views and extraordinary bearing: "Who among us is not friends with each other? It is actually normal for friends to have a little conflict with each other, and even suspicion and jealousy. In my opinion, those guys who spend all day drinking and drinking like glue with each other are not really friends. β
Suddenly, another loud roar came from far and near. Thundered... Leonard: The entire hill shook beneath them. The great swordsman who had just stood firm for a while couldn't help but be shocked again, and his right arm stretched out against a tree trunk beside him, barely falling down, and then asked in a loud and upset voice: "What's going on!?"
Li Ming stood on the side of the mountain with his head held high, stepped on a large rock with his right foot, and looked at the scene at the foot of the mountain with his pair of binoculars covered with white iron sheets, and replied to Leonard: "The corrupted dragon has been spewing slime at the bottom of the mountain from just now until now, and it is estimated that it has damaged the geological structure of this hill. The mountain was unstable and shook due to the times. β
At the same time, Bran slipped down from a nearby tree, holding a pair of brass binoculars in his hand, and asked the group, "Don't you want to try the corrupted dragon, can you kill it?" β
When Leonard heard this, he immediately ordered Bran: "Then you can take us there quickly." So the longbowmen led the group and began to move quickly to another location at the top of the hill. At this moment, more roaring loud noises came one after another. Thundered... Thundered... The whole hill shook violently as if it was about to collapse.
And then, with a bang, boom. The side of the mountain where Leonard and the others had been located suddenly collapsed completely. Countless turquoise acid and decaying gases rose and gushed up. The corrupted dragon was standing at the foot of the mountain in front of him, in a shallow lake of dark green acid.
Rocks, soil, vegetation, and other objects tumbling from the collapsed mountain fell into the lake of acid and sizzled, and dark green bubbles continued to rise until they were completely dissolved. A large amount of acid-decaying green haze rose from it.
Rosie, who had followed Bran and the others to another location at the top of the hill, heard the loud noise, looked back at the scene, and couldn't help muttering to himself, "It's really dangerous! If you can't get rid of this thing, the island of Sark will really be finished." β
Li Ming also opened his eyes this time, and couldn't help but sigh with Rosie: "This is the power of the legendary demon god." β
Leonard was not touched by the terrifying scene in front of him, but calmly reminded everyone: "Hurry! Let's try to see if this hill can be killed before it is flattened by the corrupted dragon." If not, we must hurry back to the port and inform the king of the news. β
Bran then led the group to a shady, rocky hill and said, "There are many rocks in this area, and it is the most solid part of the mountain, and the vegetation is dense and easy to hide, and above all, it is on the right side of the Corrupt Dragon, and it is close enough to it. β
From a bird's-eye view of the small hill where they are located, it can be said to be roughly an irregular circle. The Corrupt Dragon was like a worm that gnawed a bite on this irregular circle and crawled into the gap. Now, the Longbowman had quietly taken the group from the position directly in front of the dragon's gnawing to the top of the hill behind it to the right.
I saw that Crotty raised the Ghost Sword and Slayer Spirit with both hands, and chanted a spell in his mouth: "The Spirit of Demon Fire, the Form of All Things." Please use the power of hell to incinerate the mortal things that stand in my way..."The blade of the Ghost Sword immediately turned red and translucent, and golden flames continued to gush out. - Flame Spirits are burned!
Tina also held her breath and held the royal ceremonial staff in the air with both hands. The staff's head then gathered a large ball of pure magical energy that shone like a blazing white sun. Immediately after, the elven female swordsman swung his sword. The female mage wields her staff. A large stream of golden fire wrapped around a large blazing white energy light projectile, and it slammed into the corrupted dragon with sudden and rapid speed.
The corrupted dragon was extremely large, slow and clumsy, and in a very short time it only roared once, not reacting to the situation at all: "uhββ!" boom... The flame stream that the flame spirit burned was wrapped in the energy light bullet of the Blazing Heavenly Punishment, and it smashed directly on the spine of the evil dragon Senbai, causing an extremely violent explosion. Blazing white light overflowed. The scorching golden flames spread across the entire spine and wing skeleton of the corrupted dragon, burning violently.
In the blink of an eye, Bran also pulled the metal composite longbow in his hand to the maximum limit, firing a fast, accurate, and fierce heavy arrow. The arrows of the whizzing ββ arrows wrapped in a cloud of white magical energy, and along a straight path, pierced straight into the corner of the corrupted dragon's eye.
The corrupted dragon roared, and from its almost depleted skeleton, several blood-red breaths swelled: "Uh-ga-ββ" The golden flames that burned on the dragon's body were extinguished. At the same time, it opened its bloody jaw, full of sharp teeth, and sucked and sprayed the sharp arrows aimed at Bran. A large stream of dark green slime instantly melted the heavy arrow into ashes, and it spurted and splashed halfway up the mountainside in front of Leonard and the others.
Leonard held the brass telescope handed to him by Bran, and while observing the battle situation in front of him, he shouted loudly: "Retreat! No matter how much you attack, it will be in vain! If you continue to grind here, you will only die in vain!"
The Great Swordsman found that even though the Corrupted Dragon had been attacked with such a strong attack, not even a single piece of the crumbling flesh on its body had fallen off, and its bones had not been damaged in the slightest. At the same time, a large forest halfway up the mountainside in front of him suddenly disappeared. A large blue-green acidic fog then rose.
The corrupted dragon that sensed the location of the group followed with another wild roar: "Uh-ga-ββ" Another wave of dark green slime struck at a rapid pace. Thankfully, the place Bran had chosen was rocky and dense with jungle. As a result, another large expanse of vegetation and rocky soil turned into sour slime in front of the Great Swordsman's eyes, closer and closer. A large puff of extremely pungent rancid gas rushed into the nose and drifted into the mouth, nostrils and eyes of the group.
Hanks was so stimulated by the acid gas that he coughed and burst into tears, and quickly put the spell mask Li Ming gave him back on his face; while scolding bitterly, he took out a few spell smoke bombs from his arms and threw them into the air: "Cough... Cough... Damn itββ..."
Leonard and the other companions also burst into tears, coughing loudly while quickly putting on a spell mask: "Ahem... "Tina and Crotty also pulled out several spell smoke grenades from their coat pockets and threw them into the air, then used their spells to send them flying towards the corrupted dragon.
When the smoke grenade flew to a similar distance, they used the weapons in their hands to release the most ordinary kind of energy light projectile, which hit the smoke grenade directly. After the smoke grenade was hit by the light bullet, it exploded. Bang! bang... Large puffs of pitch-black smoke were released from the sky above the eyes of the giant evil dragon.
Seeing this, the corrupted dragon roared and continued to spit out slime, beginning to disperse the pitch-black smoke that blocked its vision: "Uh-quackββ..." Leonard and his party took advantage of this opportunity to quickly move to the other side of the top of the hill and quietly slipped down a mountain path.
The corrupted dragon continued to attack for a long time, leveling most of the small hills, but there was no trace of Leonard and the others, so he felt that something was not right, and once again used his teleportation technique, shouting loudly towards a radius of 100 miles: "You will die immediately! The brave man with the magnetic card and the inheritor of the Lars Empire will be turned into powdered slime! You will be killed immediately! The brave man with the magnetic card and the inheritor of the Lars Empire will be turned into powdered slime..."
Hearing the cry of the corrupted dragon in his heart, Crotty, who had taken refuge with his companions on another hill, told everyone again: "Don't answer it. So no one made a mistake again. The Corrupt Dragon loses its target.
Rossi looked through the telescope and saw that the corrupted dragon was still destroying the hill from before, and he breathed a long sigh of relief, and said his thoughts more anxiously than any other member of the team: "Phewβwe're finally free from the dragon's entanglement." Now, before it can start destroying the rest of the island, go to Arebis to retrieve the Holy Prayer Crystal. β
The Corrupt Dragon's teleportation had apparently been echoed by some of the amphibians in the nearby amphibian villages. Then the evil dragon's words immediately changed, and he threatened with the teleportation technique: "I already know that this island is called Sark Island, and it is inhabited by a group of amphibians who are as inferior as lizards. If you wait for a young night, you will not come out and die! I will slaughter all these inferior amphibians. β
Rosie's mind sensed the threatening words of the corrupted dragon, and he couldn't help but feel angry and his blood surged into his heart, and he cursed with great excitement: "Bastard!!ββ it's a shame that my people have always worshipped this despicable evil dragon as an ancestor!
When Li Ming heard this, he persuaded Rosie in a half-joking tone: "I told you amphibians a long time ago that blind worship is meaningless. Lowly worshippers are often ignored and despised by the great men or idols they worship as ants. Besides, this evil dragon doesn't know that you amphibians have been worshipping it all along. β
Leonard, who was standing on the side, heard this, and echoed Li Ming's words, reminding Rossi: "It can be seen from this how ridiculous and ridiculous blind worship is, self-inflicted, wishful thinking, and stupidity. So, Rosie, please want to open a little bit. We should rush back to the port immediately, that's the urgency of the delay. β
When Rossi heard this, he put down the binoculars in his hand and replied in an unusually firm tone, "Okay, let's go now!" So, the prince of the amphibious tribe and his companions left the corrupted dragon and hurried straight to the port of the island of Sarke. As soon as they returned to the port, they informed all the crew of the Lars fleet and the local inhabitants of the amphibious kingdom of the grave state of affairs.
Rossi's father, the amphibious king, immediately declared a state of greatest urgency in the country. Detectives were dispatched to monitor the movements of the corrupted dragon day and night, and to report the latest situation at any time, and once the dragon was found to be close to any village, all the villagers of that village would receive an urgent notice from the king's commissioner and move to a relatively safe place to take refuge.
The dragon was constantly venting the resentment that had accumulated over thousands of years of suppression under the Temple of the Gathering Spirits, destroying everything it saw. Everywhere it went, everything on the surface of the earth turned into a swamp of rotting poison bubbling with acidic miasma.
