Volume III: Turbulent Beginnings (Remastered) Chapter 30: The Adventures of Lake Salicagene (2)
Yu Bin looked up at the sky, it was almost 5 o'clock in the morning, it was just when the sun was just starting to rise, and it wouldn't be long before those ice and fire dragons who had slept all night would wake up and start to set off to hunt.
It is not difficult to successfully get the groundwater gushing out of the underwater spring in the center of Lake Salikene, as long as you jump into Lake Salikene, you can easily sink to the bottom of the lake, the undead are immune to suffocation, as long as the water pressure does not destroy the body, Yu Bin can move freely underwater. Even if those Ice and Fire Dragons spotted him, they would not be able to follow him into pursuit at the bottom of the lake.
But the problem is that Yu Bin wants not only a safe entry, but also a safe exit. He didn't want to be guarded by dozens of ice and fire dragons on the lake for days.
Seeing that the morning glow and morning light began to envelop the entire Sarikaine extinct volcano, Yu Bin immediately found a thick layer of snow nearby, dug a hiding place in it, hid in it, and then sealed the mouth with snow. In this way, you can maximize the guarantee that you will not be discovered by those damn ice and fire dragons when you go offline.
Reluctantly quit the world of Entagre, Yu Bin started a day's life.
Since living in Changchun with Shen Tianyi, two months have passed, and seeing that the Chinese New Year is getting closer and closer, Yu Bin has a more and more unreal feeling. The TV broadcasts all kinds of programs to welcome the New Year all day long, but Yu Bin is not interested at all, and just urges Shen Tianyi every day not to indulge in the world of Ntagre.
As he spent more and more time in that magical world, Yu Bin could clearly feel that his body was becoming more and more flexible, and it was easier and easier to make all kinds of difficult movements.
This means that his brain, or soul, is already in full control of his body.
In the human brain, in order to protect itself, a limit will be set subconsciously, and under ordinary circumstances, human beings cannot surpass him. And the reason why some people are stronger than ordinary people after exercising is not only the enhancement of physical fitness, but also the increase of this limit.
But the world of Ntagrei has used another way, in the case of no obvious increase in human physical fitness, through the brain, or soul exercise, to raise this limit one step ahead, so that people will feel that their strength is greater and the speed of running is faster, but in fact, this is the power they have, but because of the existence of this brain limit before, it was impossible to exert it.
It's just like when people are in a critical situation, they often exert incredible power, but in fact, in that critical moment, in order to protect life, the brain takes the initiative to let go of this limit, so that people can exert unimaginable power.
However, although the world of Entagri can make humans more powerful by raising this limit, if their physical fitness cannot keep up, then they will eventually face the dilemma of not being able to improve. Therefore, there is a way to strengthen the physical body using the power of the soul through the function of the ring.
Of course, human beings can also improve their physical fitness through their own exercises, which is the meaning of the extreme attribute obtained after the ring scan when they first enter the game.
What Yu Bin feels now is the physical strength brought about by the improvement of the limit in the brain, but in fact, the real physical fitness has not changed much, after all, it is not a day or two, a month or two months can change.
Yu Bin continued to exercise in the way that those adventurers in his previous life summed up, while thinking about things in the game.
Facing the Salikene Lake, which was guarded by the Salikene Ice and Fire Dragons, Yu Bin wanted to get the lake water from here safely and leave, which could be described as difficult to enter the sky.
After thinking about it, Yu Bin felt that there was only one way to try it. That is to kidnap a baby of the Ice and Fire Dragon.
Although the Salikaigne Ice and Fire Dragons are powerful, they are not large in number, so these Ice and Fire Dragons will be closely protected for each cub.
But no matter how closely protected, in Yu Bin's opinion, it doesn't make much sense, especially these Salikaine Ice and Fire Dragons, for a long time, except for those demons who accidentally break in, they have no enemies here at all, so the so-called strict protection is actually just a careful inspection of the food, and then a warning of the enemy, and finally to ensure that the cubs do not fall into the lake because of running around.
Under this kind of "strict protection", Yu Bin feels that as long as he is careful, it should not be difficult to successfully kidnap a cub.
And once the cub can be successfully kidnapped, at least until the hope of regaining the cub is lost, these Sally Kaigne Ice and Fire Dragons will not attack him, which gives Yu Bin a lot of room for maneuver, and it will be easier to negotiate or rely on the Ice and Fire Dragon Cub to get out at that time.
The plan has been decided, and Yu Bin also patiently waited for the arrival of the night, and continued to impart various knowledge to Shen Tianyi by the way. He had already learned from Shen Tianyi's mouth that the Bright Sect was about to hold an inauguration ceremony for her, which was a very good result, even far beyond Yu Bin's original expectations, so he hurried to instill in her what Shen Tianyi might use.
After dinner, at 8 o'clock, Yu Bin entered the world of Entagri on time.
When he opened his eyes, it was still the ice cave, which meant that Yu Bin had done a very good disguise, and during the time he was away, no Ice and Fire Dragon had discovered him.
Watching the night gradually engulf the earth, Yu Bin knew that the opportunity for his own action had come.
Continuing to crouch in the crater, Yu Bin observed the living habits of the ice and fire dragons on the inner wall of the volcano.
As a wurm species, the Sallykaigne Ice and Fire Dragon, like most wurms, has a diurnal lifestyle. As time passed, there were ice and fire dragons burrowing into the nests on the mountain walls, snoring and sleeping, and some ice and fire dragons came out of the nests, spread their wings, and flew out of the fire to prepare fresh supper for their children.
It wasn't until nearly midnight that Yu Bin finally determined that there were no more ice and fire dragons who had gone out and never returned, and compared to last night, there were two or three underage ice and fire dragons flying and playing on the lake, and today there was only one young dragon gliding aimlessly there, and after a while, maybe even this young dragon was bored, and went into a small cave in the mountain wall and went to sleep.
Yu Bin, who finally waited for the opportunity, began to slowly climb towards the big hole that he had found through hours of observation before connecting the inside and outside of the mountain wall.
Climbing into this big cave with difficulty, Yu Bin saw that there were still most of the corpses of lava monitor lizards in the cave, because of the cold air on the top of the mountain, a thin layer of frost appeared on the surface of the corpse without a head and neck.
Carefully walking through the gap next to the lava monitor lizard's corpse, Yu Bin finally entered the inner wall of the volcano.
The nearest cave was at least a few tens of meters away, but there was a protruding stone platform outside each cave, which was presumably used by the Ice and Fire Dragons to land.
Aiming at the nearest stone platform, Yu Bin took out a large crossbow in his backpack. Bow, slowly open the crossbow arm with your feet, and then put a crossbow arrow, the tail end of the crossbow arrow, tied to a rope. These things were procured from the goblins of Ratchet City, crossbows. The bow arm of the bow is wrapped in a special material that greatly reduces the force required to shoot.
Raise the crossbow. Bow and aim at the edge of the platform outside a cave, which Yu Bin had specially observed and determined that it was a vacant lair.
With a low sound, the iron slender crossbow bolt successfully drilled into the edge of the platform that Yu Bin was aiming at, and in this way, a passage connected by ropes was formed between the two caves.
After waiting for a while, to make sure that no Ice and Fire Dragon woke up from the sound just now, Yu Bin tied this section of the rope to a raised stone in the big hole, and then hung it on the rope, slowly moving towards another platform.
In this way, Yu Bin approached the target little by little, and after several hours of careful observation, he had already made a safe route, and the only question to worry about was when those ice and fire dragons would wake up.
Unfortunately, when Yu Bin was still two caves away from his goal, on the other side of the mountain wall of Lake Salikene, an ice and fire dragon emerged from the lair.
Yu Bin quickly lifted the crossbow halfway up. The bow was put away, and he turned and hid in the cave to avoid being seen by the ice and fire dragon who had not slept well and had gone crazy in the middle of the night.
And as the Ice and Fire Dragon woke up, more and more Ice and Fire Dragons began to crawl out of their nests and began to fly to the places where they were used to store food for food.
Seeing this scene, Yu Bin, who knew that he had no chance this night, slowly retreated to the deepest part of this vacant lair, took out some fabric of the same color as the stone wall in the cave from his backpack, arranged a small space in the corner of the cave, and then got into it, trying to shrink his body as much as possible to avoid being discovered by the big guys outside.
Looking at the time, Yu Bin chose to go offline, and now he can only pray that he is not favored by the goddess of doom, otherwise he can only be resurrected from the nearest cemetery, and then look for a new opportunity to enter Lake Salikene.
After spending a day in fear, Yu Bin couldn't help laughing at himself, others were happily waiting for the New Year, but he had to be scared, like a thief.
But there is good news.
At breakfast in the morning, Thunderlight made a phone call to inform him that he and Keldila had safely passed through Astrana, the elven camp, in Ashendale, and that the two undead thieves were still trudging through the primeval forests of Thorn Valley.
After calculating the recovery time of soul energy, Yu Bin stuck on the hour and entered the game after lunch to take a look.
Luckily, Yu Bin was still safely curled up in the corner of the vacant lair, and it seemed that there was no boring Ice and Fire Dragon to disturb him.
With as little movement as possible, Yu Bin left the game again after making some arrangements slightly.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, Yu Bin, who couldn't wait, went online immediately.
Because at night, the lair where Yu Bin was hiding was already dim, and only the occasional light reflected from the surface of the lake could illuminate a little light gray sky outside the cave entrance.
Feeling out of the nest lightly, Yu Bin hid in the shadows near the entrance of the cave, waiting.
This wait waited until nearly midnight, until all the ice and fire dragons had burrowed into their lair and began to sleep soundly, and Yu Bin began to act.
Like the previous night, Yu Bin leaned on the crossbow. With the help of a bow and rope, slowly move towards your goal.
Finally arrived at the last lair without the life of the Ice and Fire Dragon.
Less than 10 meters away from this cave, there is a larger lair, Yu Bin had clearly seen before, there are two ice and fire dragons constantly tearing the most delicious tender meat on the captured lava lizard into pieces of meat the size of Yu Bin's head, and then bringing them into this cave.
This means that in this huge lair, the two ice and fire dragons must be raising a cub.
Another piece of evidence is that the vacant nest where Yu Bin is now and the huge nest next to it, which is less than 10 meters away, two caves. Between the platforms at the entrance, there is a stone path that is large enough for two Yu Bin to walk side by side.
Judging from Yu Bin's experience, this is obviously the stone path used for the ice and fire dragon cubs to walk, and it is obvious that the vacant nest where Yu Bin is now is a single room prepared by the parents of the two ice and fire dragons for their future children.
The pup period of the Ice and Fire Dragons is usually half a year, and after half a year, these underage Ice and Fire Dragons will move out of their parents' nests, live alone nearby, and begin to practice various necessary skills, this stage usually lasts for nearly two years.
In a previous life, an adult Ice and Fire Dragon was difficult to hunt, but hunting an underage Ice and Fire Dragon was very simple, these little guys who didn't have any survival experience at all, just needed some delicious enough meat to lure them out.
Of course, the premise is that the player can avoid the attention of the Ice and Fire Dragons who are in charge of guarding the area.
It's not easy.
However, Yu Bin's goal was more difficult, because he had to find a way to lure out the Ice and Fire Dragon cub.
Yu Bin didn't dare to directly enter the home of the Ice and Fire Dragon couple and steal the child under their noses, if they were discovered, it would not be something that could be solved by calling the police.
Walking to the deepest part of the cave, Yu Bin took out a few pieces of fresh meat from his backpack. These fist-sized pieces of flesh come from an animal that lives near the extinct volcano of Salikaigne, a small beast called the snowfoot hare, which depends on the moss and rare plants that grow near the extinct volcano of Salikaigne.
In order to forage for food in the snow of the extinct volcano of Salikaigne, these critters have evolved four furry snow feet, with long hairs on their feet that allow them to move quickly through the snow to avoid predators.
These rare snowfoot rabbits, due to their delicate meat and great difficulty in hunting, are high-end ingredients among the player base. At the same time, the meat of these snow-footed rabbits is also the favorite food of the Ice and Fire Dragon cubs.
It's a pity that the adult Ice and Fire Dragon, who is a behemoth, has a hard time successfully hunting these nimble and alert snow-footed rabbits.
When he first arrived near the extinct volcano of Salikenje, Yu Bin deliberately took a little time to catch a few snow-footed rabbits with homemade traps. Now players have not discovered the blessing of this delicious ingredient, the number of snow-footed rabbits near the extinct volcano of Sarikaigne is not as rare as in the previous life, plus Yu Bin in his previous life in order to make money, he also deliberately sneaked here for a period of time to hunt, with the experience of the previous life, he naturally and smoothly caught these clever ghosts.
