Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Battle of the Dragons That Burned Money

"Wow! It's a great feeling! Claudia, who was fluttering in the wind, screamed happily. The sound wafted back and forth above the hill, and was soon blown away by the evening mountain breeze. But even so, Klaimatis still glared at her fiercely: "Be quiet, what if you wait until you are near the dragon's lair and you are still like this, what if you alarm the dragon in advance?" ”

It's a pity that after the whole person was translucent and foggy, Clematis's expression was blurred, so the deterrent effect on Claudia was greatly reduced. The real master laughed and said, "Don't be so rigid! It's still far from the dragon's lair! How can it be so easy to be heard. ”

But at this moment, Claudia felt the direction of the wind beside her, and her whole person drifted towards the depths of the night sky, far away from the stars of her companions. Claudia, who noticed the change, immediately exclaimed, "I was wrong! Am I wrong? Lily, don't do this, don't do this! ”

Compared with Klamatis's unintimidating words, Rieli's small punishment of Claudia, who overtook the direction of the wind, immediately made the rich girl who loves excitement choose to stop fighting. The Jomley prophet on the side turned his head to look at Barrett: "Are you sure your teammates are really reliable?" ”

"Yes! If she can stop the white dragon in the lair, she will have the ability to make the other party unable to fly again. Barrett said with great confidence.

The prophet Chomli was immediately interested: "Is this so? I'm a little interested. ”

With the wind created by Rielly, the members of the two teams rose and fell in mid-air with the wind force of the wind. The village chief of Farmori, who was bound by a special rope, lost his eyes from the moment he rose into the air, and some strange gas-like objects continued to spill from under him.

While the players weren't initially very comfortable with using the 'Ride the Wind' spell, a prophetic instinct forced them to reconsider. Although not all prophets were able to foresee the future, their intuition about the success or failure of a matter was convincing.

Sure enough, when the players took to the skies, they found that, just as the prophet Chomli had predicted, the mountain wind tonight was surprisingly light. Moreover, the overall flow direction in the sky is actually towards the location of the dragon's lair, which not only saves a lot of effort for everyone, but also greatly improves safety.

During this time, Rielie used the scroll several times to maintain the effect of wind control, and after more than 2 hours of changing speed and slowness, Barrett immediately said, "It should be not far ahead!" The guy had said before that when they occasionally escorted the sacrifices, they used the hill that looked like a crow's head as a reference. ”

"Then let's go down first, this place is not far from the dragon's lair, let's conduct pre-battle intelligence before the other party finds out." As soon as the prophet had said this, he took the lead and began to lower his altitude. Then the members of the 'Silver Seal' team began to decline one by one. Even if you don't want to see this scene, you actually have to keep up with their progress.

Fortunately, the dragon is already at the top of the food chain, so there is no possibility of a living beast in the area near its lair. The two teams carefully bypassed the dense taiga and landed silently on the snow. As soon as he landed, the Prophet Chomli took out a small pocket altar from the dimensional pouch, and then lit a small piece of incense in the center of the altar to begin the prophecy ceremony.

Barrett, who was on the side, took out the map and calculated it carefully, and then Baza said: "Tsk! Tut! Tut! In just over two hours, we were moving almost 60 miles in a straight line. If it were a walk, I think our previous estimate would be very wrong. It will take about 5-8 days to get to this area. That guy didn't mention such a thing just now, and it seems that he should have done it on purpose. ”

After saying this, Barrett didn't make a move on the village chief of Farmory, who was still unconscious, but smiled: "But in this way, we don't have to worry that someone in Tululu Village will come into contact with that evil dragon before us." ”

No wonder the big guys say that it is not easy to slay a dragon, and many times just from a place where there are people to his dragon's lair, if you walk, you may have to walk for more than ten days or even longer. If there is no need to fly, and there is no road in the mountains, it would be good to be able to run more than ten miles a day -- some people may say that in reality, there are people who can walk dozens of miles to go to school. But when there is a mountain road, you change the environment where 'Bei Ye' is located, and let them walk dozens of miles a day to give it a try.

It is often said that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads, but dragons don't have this concept - who makes people born to fly! There are no roads, aren't they all the same! And many times, adventurers may have to go through several adventures on the way to the dragon's lair. Ogres, trolls, and anything else can be a stumbling block and a hindrance to them. Some dragons also like to keep special guards outside their nests, which shows that it is not easy to slay dragons!

Fortunately, according to the information obtained by the village chief of Farmory, this evil dragon did not raise dragon blood creatures or evil dragon cultists to defend its lair. On the one hand, it may be that the northern mountains alone do not support the evil dragon and its dependents. On the other hand, it is also because this dragon is worried that it will make too much noise and expose its whereabouts to attract real dragon slayer warriors. Of course, this also makes the player's job a lot easier.

Over time, the incense was completely extinguished. Chomli Prophet, who opened his eyes again, frowned: "Is it a white dragon or not a white dragon?" ”

The prophet has just spoken the language of the spell and can give useful advice on what the caster is to do, aim, or do during the week. But its answer may be a simple phrase, or a subtle rhyme or omen. If the user's team ignores the message, the situation may change and the information will no longer be useful.

"Is it a white dragon or not a white dragon?" Barrett asked with great concern, apparently interested in Chomley's linguistic intelligence.

Although he had received some information from the mountain people, Barrett didn't expect them to be able to distinguish a specific dragon species. Even many seasoned adventurers can't tell the difference between the Black Dragon and the Eternal Punishment Dragon, the Red Dragon and the Fire Dust Dragon, and the White Dragon and the Scroll Dragon.

And the mountain people's knowledge of the dragon is nothing more than a patchwork of songs, rumors, or other kinds of rumors. So I fully believe that this is actually going to kill people, and I didn't see it with my own eyes, and the devil knows what kind of dragon that thing is - it's good to confuse the brass dragon with the golden dragon, and it's a dead end to confuse the bronze dragon with the green dragon. Take fire dust and eternal punishment as an example, the fire prevention that was originally prepared, but as a result, it was met with liberation and sound waves, who would not die. In the same way, the white dragon and the scroll dragon, a fool among dragons, a wise man among dragons, the tactical arrangement is even more different.

The prophet Chomli then said, "The revelation I have received is a song of ice and fire in the mist and crystal. The mist and crystals are supposed to refer to the location of the dragon. If I'm not mistaken, that guy is in his lair eighty percent. And the Song of Ice and Fire should refer to its identity, a dragon that can control both the power of ice and fire. But I can't be sure exactly what Mr. Long is. So it's likely to be a white dragon and not a white dragon at the same time. ”

"Do you mean a half-blood dragon? But the number of combinations of ice and fire is not small! If you count the rare dragon ......," Barrett touched his chin.

Prophet Chomli waved his hand: "Don't worry about it so much!" Add both protection energy (fire) and protection energy (cold). No matter what breath it uses at that time, we will be able to resist one or two. ”

"In other words, you're going to kill it right now?" Barrett wasn't quite sure, "Anyway, the residents of Tululu Village won't be there for a while, so why don't we take a break?" ”

Prophet Chomli looked at his teammates on the other side, then shook his head, "The dragon's situation may change over time. If he leaves the nest, we're in trouble. ”

"But if we go in like this, it's still very dangerous for us to be discovered." Barrett frowned, then turned to look at Rielly, "How many invisibility scrolls do we still have in our hands?" ”

"There are some, but not enough for so many people here." Rielly said with some embarrassment.

Prophet Chomli immediately waved his hand: "Rest assured, we have enough scrolls in this area for our own use." ”

After some consultation, the unconscious village chief of Farmory was tied to a nearby pine tree. The two teams cautiously approached in the direction of the dragon's den, and sure enough, it didn't take long to discover a cave that was not too small. After pausing for a moment and blessing the support state, Barrett took the lead and stepped deep into the cavern.

This dragon's cave was obviously not intended for humans, and the entire passage was full of stalagmites and other rocks, and there was no place for people to settle down. If it weren't for Jomli's Prophet using a 'Crowd Volley' again, the players would have had to vaporize before infiltrating the Dragon's Lair. That would require a return from the gas state to the combat state, which would probably leave the dragon with too much time to react.

'Swarm Volley' is a spell that allows the recipient to walk in the air as if they were walking on solid ground. Moving up is a lot like climbing a hill. The maximum upward or downward angle is 45 degrees, at which point the speed is half of the normal speed of the recipient. Although the speed of this spell is very slow, and it is somewhat affected by the wind. But it is enough to deal with the situation at hand, and if such means are lacking, the adventurer may be killed and wounded by the terrain on this final journey.

From the beginning of this mission to the present, whether it is the 'Bloodstained Gray Flower' mercenary group or the 'Silver Seal' team, the scrolls used have been converted into thousands of gold coins. In order to slay the dragon this time successfully, both sides can be said to have made a bloody investment. For now, we can only hope that the damn dragon will bring enough rewards.

As the two teams did not go deeper, large swaths of stone walls began to be covered with ice. It can be seen that although this evil dragon has two completely different attributes, its living habits are still biased towards the white dragon. At the same time, a hazy white mist gradually appeared around him, and the changes in the environment should have been influenced by the dragon.

When a dense mist almost like a marshmallow appeared in front of you, Barrett realized that the dragon was enveloped in the mist. The most intense part of the churning mist should be not far from the dragon's mouth and nose.

Unfortunately, because these fogs are not magical effects but natural phenomena influenced by dragons, Barrett can't see through them even if he has the ability to 'penetrate the magical veil'. Fortunately, all the participants had prepared for the battle before entering the Dragon's Lair. As a mage, Rielly was the first to strike, and a fierce wind raged in the dragon's lair, opening the white mist formed by the non-supernatural force and began to dissipate.

Then the dragon in the midst appeared before your eyes. Its crown is not as pronounced as that of an adult white dragon, and the scales on its throat and chin are smooth, lacking the drooping flesh and spines of an adult white dragon. It has only a slight angular rudimentary shape on the ridge above the eyes and ears. Because of its 'white dragon', its toes are wider than those of other dragons, which gives them greater stability on unstable footholds. They have barbs and serrations on their claws, which are not used to deal extra damage in combat, but to help this dragon walk on ice.

And with the change of his living environment, the evil dragon in front of him also woke up from his sleep. When it saw Rielly casting a spell, it immediately fanned its wings to attack. But this guy suddenly realized that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move forward half a step. At the same time, no matter how much she flapped her wings, she couldn't leave the ground - Claudia, who was chanting the mantra of 'inertial conflict', picked up Rielly's cooperation at the first time. The dragon in front of him was confined to the ice where it slept.

The immobile dragon didn't sit still, but opened its jaws and spewed out a seemingly paradoxical cone-shaped black ice particle from its slightly pointed mouth, which enveloped Claudia's position. Fortunately, after the anvil became larger, he arrived in time and protected the real master behind him like a wall. (To be continued.) )
