------------------

Behind the door was a large room, the size of a dozen football fields, the ceiling of the room was full of glowing crystals, making the room as bright as day, while the surrounding walls, including the floor, were full of cold ice crystals, and the huge iron door was not fully opened, and Sigroot could feel the biting chill coming from him.

Through the crack in the door that gradually opened, Sigroot stared blankly at the hill-like creature in the center of the room, which looked like a dozen football fields were a dozen football fields in the center of the room with a sleeping dragon, a dragon that penetrated deep blue.

"How is this possible, there are obviously no dragons in the race information on ALO's official website."

The bright light shone on Sigroot, clearly showing his shock and surprise.

The iron door opened completely in a few moments, and the other wind elves also saw the dragon in the room, and they all looked shocked.

The story of dragons and warriors has long been heard to the ears, in various RPG games, dragons are extremely powerful creatures, accompanied by rich treasures, but... There are no dragons in ALO, right?

"Could it have been added in the last version update?" A wind elf guessed thoughtfully.

"Whatever, if you can push this dragon away, maybe you'll burst out with legendary equipment." After a brief moment of shock, someone said greedily.

After all, it's just a game, and the dragons in games are often treasure troves.

Shock was followed by ecstasy...

Sigroot's eyes slowly widened, and he was stubbornly staring at the sleeping dragon, measuring the success of the dragon.

"Captain Sigroot, let's fight, if we succeed, we may be the first player to overthrow the dragon, even if we fail, it will only be a death."

"Yes, this is a dragon, I used to think that ALO didn't have a dragon monster, but I didn't expect such a big move in the last version update, but I don't know why there is no information about dragons on the official website of the road."

"Idiot, wouldn't it be meaningless to say it early."

“…”

"This is a dragon, I've wanted to see a dragon in the imaginary world for a long time."

In their eyes, ALO is just an imaginary realm, and no matter how realistic it is, the mechanism of resurrection ten minutes after death will not make them afraid to walk in front of the iron gate.

When death becomes cheap, the fear of presence becomes insignificant.

Without much hesitation, Sigroot decided to try his hand at the dragon in the room.

"The buff effect on the support for the avant-garde is the same as when attacking the Frost Giant, if the avant-garde can't stop it, stay in place and contain it."

Sigroot reminded the avant-garde, and then everyone went directly into the room filled with cold, if they opened the map at this time, they would definitely find that the remaining third of the gray area of the rhombic cave was lit, that is, this room alone had one-third of the total area of the rhombic cave.

The moment they entered the room, the sleeping dragon suddenly opened its eyes and looked coldly at the unscrupulous intruder, the will forcibly embedded by the system drove it to spread a pair of huge fleshy wings and slowly get up.

There was no overly obvious movement, just staring coldly at Sigroot and the others, and their huge bodies were like a small mountain, exuding an inviolable majesty.

Frost Dragon, this is the name that Sigroot and the others can see, and the basic information can be seen from the name, obviously the Frost Dragon should use ice-based magic.

The Frost Dragon's powerful momentum slowly swung out like a heart vibrating, reaching everyone far in front of the iron gate.

"It's scary!"

Even though he knew that the Frost Dragon was only an imaginary product, the heart beat faster and faster as he got closer to the dragon.

Affected by the momentum, the pace of the avant-garde suddenly slowed down.

"Don't panic, it's just a data-forming object." Sigroot frowned.

The known monsters in ALO do not yet possess the characteristics that can make players feel frightened, and although the dragon is a little weaker than the evil god monsters in the sea maze that has not yet been opened, its huge size and extremely high fidelity are extremely impactful, and they are more terrifying and powerful than the currently known monsters.

The avant-garde kept hypnotizing themselves in their hearts, and the frost dragon in the distance was just a pile of data, and death was not really death, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

Just the data, this kind of concept that they had before entering this world succeeded in soothing the fear in the hearts of the avant-garde.

Even if he has independent intelligence, it is just a pile of data, just like the sky at this time, just like thoughts and memories belong to human beings, but now he is just data, no matter what he does, no matter what changes, he can't change the fact that it is just a pile of data.

Because it's a data body in the imaginary world, there's nothing to be afraid of.

The avant-garde suddenly quickened their pace, and five or six minutes later, before they could enter the attack range, the frost dragon suddenly raised its dragon head, and its mouth full of sharp teeth suddenly opened.

Active Attack Type...?

Seeing this, the wind elves were slightly stunned, and at this moment, the dragon head raised by the frost dragon drooped a little like thunder, and a cold current filled with extreme cold erupted from the mouth full of sharp teeth, shooting towards the avant-garde at the front.

The distance between them is at least more than 500 meters, but the cylindrical cold current with a diameter of two meters is extremely fast, so fast that when they are separated by more than 500 meters, the first few avant-garde guards were hit by the cold current before they could react, turning into humanoid ice sculptures.

The head of the frost dragon swung slightly, and the cold current quickly moved past the humanoid ice sculpture, sweeping towards the other avant-garde, and the sudden change made the rest of the wind elves startled, but they were all elites, and they reacted quickly and timely, and they all immediately retreated, leaving a few humanoid ice sculptures in place.

This is no longer a question of containment or not, in the face of the cold snap without the ability to resist, the avant-garde retreated without hesitation.

Perhaps because the attack range was not enough, the Frost Dragon stopped releasing a cold snap, and there were flashes of ice crystals floating in the trajectory of the previous cold snap.

As the frost dragon's cold current erupted from his mouth, Sigroot retreated faster than anyone else, until he reached a safe distance before he looked at his teammates who had turned into ice sculptures with a look of horror.

When I opened the panel showing the status of my teammates, I saw that the hapless guards were already dead, but they did not turn into residual fires, but remained like ice sculptures.

It can't be collected and resurrected if it doesn't become a residual fire, and the duration of the ice sculpture is not clear, if it's more than ten minutes, then this boss is really terrifying, and it has the ability to prevent the resurrection of elves.

"Retreat!"

Sigroot immediately gave the order to retreat, and then he was the first to turn around and run, and the others would hesitate when they heard Sigroot's words, turn around and flee.

The wind elves who turned around didn't see the humanized taunt in the eyes of the frost dragon, obviously this dragon was similar to the evil god monster in Yuzheim, with independent minds and AI, but the commands embedded in their AI by the system could not be violated, equivalent to the mission of their own existence.

Sigroot, who was fleeing, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that the iron gate was dozens of meters away, if he died, it would be troublesome, and if he fell out of the ancient quality of the sword of great power, it would be a tragedy.

Just when he thought he was about to escape, a thick ice wall larger than the iron gate fell from the sky without warning, accompanied by a loud bang and a wave of air, the huge ice wall ruthlessly sealed the entire exit.

"What!"

Sigroot braked suddenly, his eyes wide in disbelief.

Although the ice wall is crystal clear, you can see the outside without blurring through the ice, but from the side it is very thick, the most important thing is that the ice wall is a magic product, just like the earthen wall that obstructs Kirito on the bridge in the original book, it belongs to the magic specially used to block the way, it cannot be destroyed, and it can only disappear when the duration is reached.

Sigroot's face was desperate and gloomy, and when the ice wall disappeared, it was estimated that they would not even have a corpse left.

"Damn!"

Thinking that the equipment he obtained after killing the Frost Giant might fall due to death, Sigroot couldn't help but rush to the ice wall, angrily holding his broadsword and slashing at the ice wall, the blade of the sword slashed against the ice wall without leaving a trace, but the force of the rebound made his wrist slightly numb.

"Captain Sigroot, what now?" One of the wind elves in the magic team trembled and said in a trembling voice, this person was relatively timid, seeing such a terrifying ice dragon, even if he knew that the death of Lu Dao in the game would not have any impact on the real body, he still couldn't stop the fear in his heart.

Sigroot didn't respond to him, but gritted his teeth and tried to think about how to escape from this room, now the plan can only be dragged until the ice wall disappears, yes, as long as the ice wall disappears, he still doesn't believe that the ice dragon will chase out of the room, thinking of this, his eyes twitched slightly, turned around and said loudly: "The equipment is all on me, so I can't die, you attack the dragon to attract hatred and then scatter and run away, this place is very large, there is enough space to maneuver with the ice dragon, and the ice dragon is bloated, the speed must be very slow, as long as you try to drag it out, After that, just wait for the ice wall to last! ”

The wind elves immediately looked at each other when they heard this, but what Sigroot said was indeed very reasonable, after all, the equipment was all on Sigroot, if Sigroot died, it was very likely that the equipment that he had just obtained would fall, and just looking at the size of the Frost Dragon, the speed in this terrain was definitely not fast, as long as they held on until the ice wall disappeared, they also had a good chance to escape from the room.

As soon as they thought of it, the wind elves immediately dispersed, and the frost dragon seemed to have a cat-and-mouse mentality, and when they ran back, they just lowered the ice wall and did not pursue, but after seeing the gathered wind elves scattered, it moved, and it seemed that it also knew that the room was large, and if the wind elves were scattered and ran to the corner, it would be a bit troublesome.

Swish...

The Frost Dragon spread out a pair of fleshy wings behind him, and then flipped its wings to fly as the wind elves watched in amazement.

“!!!”

"Just kidding, it's cheating!" Someone shouted unacceptably, in the cave terrain, elves can't fly, and the dragon itself is so powerful, it is simply against the sky to be able to fly in the cave.

But the Frost Dragon doesn't reason with the elves, its mission is simple, it is to kill any enemy who enters this room, and it will not resist this mission, because if you don't kill these people, then it may die.

The Frost Giant, who was guarding the Iron Gate, would come back to life after being pushed away, but it couldn't.

Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the Frost Dragon's slow speed to delay time, but when the Frost Dragon waved its wings and flew up, Sigroot was completely desperate, and he stood alone in front of the ice wall, stupidly watching the Frost Dragon use the advantage of flight to kill his scattered teammates in seconds.

"If the equipment is lost, this operation will be a complete failure, I am a man who is going to run for the next lord, how can this operation fail! I will not allow it! ”

Sigroot swung his broadsword madly and slashed at the ice wall, sword after sword without stopping, but it was just useless.

There are many ways to attack the Frost Dragon, flick with the tail, scratch people with claws, breathe with the cold current, and the most cruel thing is to step on it directly from the sky with one foot, as cruel as it is, it can be said that it is a lot of fun, and the few players who were trampled to death by the Frost Dragon may not have nightmares when they sleep tonight, but they have one more advantage than the players who are frozen by the cold breath, that is, they can also watch the live broadcast in one direction after becoming the residual fire, and those players who are frozen will face ten minutes of dark time.

For nearly ten minutes, the elite team of the wind elves was killed by the frost dragon one by one before they could completely disperse, leaving only Sigroot, who had given up resistance in front of the ice wall.

In the past ten minutes, the ice wall has not yet shown any signs of melting, and the teammates are all dead, leaving no chance.

He didn't turn to look at the Frost Dragon, but looked at the Ice Wall in a daze, with a confused expression, knowing that the Frost Dragon would use the Ice Wall to block the way, so he shouldn't have made a hasty strategy at that time, at least he had to transfer the equipment first.

At this moment, a black figure appeared above the ice wall.

Sigroot looked at the figure on the ice wall, his eyes opened slightly, and he looked a little stunned, and before he had time to think about it, a cold snap hit him from behind, and in an instant he fell into darkness.

The Wind Elves are gone!

The black shadow on the ice wall was naturally the sky outside the door, and he couldn't see what was going on inside, but he could tell through Yui that the wind spirits inside were dying one by one.

"What did they encounter?"

Xiangkong looked at the ice wall, a little curious.

Yui shook her head, even if she invaded the database, she couldn't know the information of the monsters in the room, and her permissions had become relatively weak since the last version update, although it wasn't obvious, but it was indeed not as random as it was at the beginning, and she could easily query any information she wanted to know.

"All dead." Sensing that all the players in the room were dead, Yui said suddenly.

"It's only been less than ten minutes, it's scary."

Xiangkong was slightly stunned, and then sighed a little, if he was a normal player, maybe after the ice wall disappeared, he would also go in to see what kind of monster was so powerful, but ten minutes could wipe out the elite team of wind elves, but now that he is a data body, he may really die if he dies, so he won't step into the room, but it's nothing to take a look.

After waiting patiently outside the door for five or six minutes, the wall of ice blocking the door finally melted into water.

Xiangkong stood in front of the door and glanced into the room, the first thing that caught his eye was a remnant of fire, thinking that it was one of the dead wind elves, because the ice wall blocked the door, so he could only wait for death in front of the ice wall.

Ignoring the remnants of the fire, Shoku glanced into the room, and when he saw the frost dragon sleeping on the ice crystal floor in the center of the room, his eyes changed slightly, and then he looked sideways at Yui who was sitting on his shoulder, who also looked at Shoku, with a faint worry in his eyes.

"It's a dragon... Then the main task is imminent. Xiangkong silently looked at the sleeping Frost Dragon, thinking of the task that affected him, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, maybe that was the punishment of the ALO main system for outsiders.

(The premise here is that the Kammu clan took over the ALO and did not have exclusive power like Sugo and controlled everything with manpower.) )

Yui was silent this time with her head down.

Xiangkong smiled, stretched out his index finger and lightly tapped Yui's head, and said, "I can accept the worst outcome, you don't have to think too much, even if you are stuck in the data turbulence forever, it's nothing." ”

Yui smiled reluctantly, waved her fist, and said, "It would be nice if I could go up to the Death Realm Tree." ”

"I can't do it alone, you know that."

Xiangkong smiled bitterly, did not continue to dwell on this topic, and looked away from the ice dragon and looked at the remnant fire.

(I only know that PK kills the opponent or kills monster props and equipment in the original book are sent directly to the inventory, but the items dropped by the player after being killed by the monster must be set to retreat to the monster?) This was obviously unscientific, so I set it up so that the dropped items had no sovereignty for 10 minutes, and non-teammates could get the dropped equipment by clicking on the Fire Remnants. )

"Anyway, the items you drop will return to the database after the worst, so why don't I take them."

Based on the psychology that it is better to give it to the database than to take it himself, Xiangkong's hand reached out to the remaining fire, and Sigroot in the black and white vision looked helplessly at the hand that was slowly stretched out, he couldn't hear the sound, but he could see the black and white picture.

Xiangkong pressed one hand on the remnant fire, and immediately a window appeared in front of him, and the first item was the Sword of Great Power.

After making sure that the item was in hand, Xiangkong turned around and left, as for the frost dragon in the room, he couldn't afford to provoke it at all.

Poor Sigroot couldn't see the dropped items in the state of the remnant fire, and he didn't know that the Sword of Great Power had fallen, and Xiangkong had picked up a big bargain.
