Chapter Seventy-Five: Departure

When it stopped, the metal casing of the Centurion was removed and I was removed from the inside of the cockpit.

"How does it feel?"

Before I could get rid of all the asbestos wrapped around my body, Kasemer couldn't wait to come up to me and ask me what I thought about the test drive.

"Aside from a few minor questions, I'm generally satisfied...... I replied with a lot of emotion, "I'd like to open a little longer, maybe I'll find more questions in the next time." ”

"No way!" Hearing my request, Kasemer flew into a rage and flatly refused me, "What kind of energy do you think the Centurion Forge consumes?" It's not wood, it's not coal, it's a charged soul stone! That's something more valuable than coins! The precious money I have raised must not be wasted! ”

"Well, but I'm going to have to drive this Forge Centurion to the dragon's perch."

"Alternatives can be found for non-essential steps. I've already laid it out, and once we've confirmed that the modification is complete, we'll take the machine apart into parts and hire a fleet to deliver them to their destination and assemble them on site. ”

"Well, if you're short of funds, this matter is on me, and it just so happens that I still have a group of mercenaries under my command who don't know how to arrange it......

Back to business.

On my first test drive, I was generally satisfied that the heavy mech showed enough performance to perform its duties. However, in the eyes of a semi-professional, the Centurion of the Forge still has some flaws that need to be improved.

The asbestos wrap allowed me to minimize the heat of the Centaulion's internal heat, but on the other hand, the body's natural heat was difficult to dissipate for the same reason. Consider that there is no suitable heat sink on hand to use. So I had to use the change magic in advance the next time I drove, and I was ready to go.

Presumably because Cascemer focused on how to fight the dragon, the mech's intrinsic security was still lacking. For example, the back cover can only be opened from the outside, which is a terrible safety hazard for me - if the machine suddenly breaks down and burns, I will be locked in a crematorium waiting to die.

I made a lot of demands around the stability and safety of the Centurion, and Kasemer promised me to make the most important corrections in the next few years. The final delivery deadline was set for two days later, and I also set the departure time of the dragon slaying team accordingly.

……

Two days later.

At my behest, the Silverblood Family's recruitment of Dragonslayer Warriors has been removed. As the Silverblood Family intended, many of the city's idleness were recruited into the operation.

In addition to the faces of the natives, I can also find the slaughtering Orc Berserker, the assassin-skilled Brighton Nightblade, and the skilled Redguard swordsman. There are all kinds of talents in the team. It's just that they don't play a key role in my plan.

Although the personnel under his hands are mixed. But they still behaved very well after signing the contract, after all, the mercenary profession is still more particular about credibility. Besides, the Silverblood family hasn't handed over all the commissions to them, so as long as there is no incident that causes public outrage, the bounty hunters will not have trouble with the bounty.

A large convoy drove up to the city gates. The convoy consisted of mercenaries from the Silver Blood family. and Kasemer and his assistants; The goods transported included the Centurion, which had been dismantled into parts. and related experimental equipment and supplies.

Just as Atries guessed. In the face of such a large team, and the fact that the team is owned by the Silver Blood Family, the security standard at the city gate has indeed been lowered a lot - if everything is business as usual. Then we may not be able to get out of town for a whole day.

When the last truck pulled out of the city, our convoy finally set out on its journey. I sat in the lead carriage and spread out the map, and set my eyes on the destination I was about to go toβ€”Longya Pass. The Dragon's Tooth Pass is located to the northwest of the territory of Ruichi, slightly west of the midline between the Kaswisten and Druadachi strongholds. "Dragon's Tooth Pass" is named after a dragon, and now there is indeed a dragon inhabiting there, I wonder if this is a coincidence, a necessity or both.

"The mountain pass, the pass where the mountains meet each other, looks like a dragon's tooth from a distance, so it was named the Dragon's Tooth Pass......" After answering my question, the direction of the Silverblood family gave me a detailed description of the geography there, "According to the results of the investigation, the dragon inhabits a certain mountain plain. There was originally a fort built there, but no one knows who it belonged to, and when one first set foot here, one found it completely abandoned. ”

"It doesn't matter, what I'm concerned about is if there's a flat road where our convoy can follow us to our destination."

"Of course there is, I say this to tell you this, there will definitely be a great road connecting the fortress in the mountains with the world realm outside."

"Very well," I nodded, continuing to ask the guide, "Do you have any reliable information for me about the dragon?" For example, size, variety, combat style, etc. ”

"Size...... Conservatively estimated, standing up straight is about the height of four or five adults; I don't know much about the breed, this is the first dragon I've seen in my life, I don't know if the dragon can be divided into different species; As for the way of fighting...... A terrifying breath and a deadly bite? That's probably it, after all, ordinary people who have seen dragons fighting with their own eyes are already close to death. ”

The dragon was obviously not welcoming to visitors, and the information provided to me by the guide was very limited and vague. Luckily, I already know the details of where the dragon lives, and the geography and size of the dragon allow me to drive the Centurion into battle, which is enough.

……

Although dragons are legendary creatures, it is not uncommon for records of them to be handed down. Based on the available information, Kasaimer's research team can easily deduce various data about the dragon's body, such as the theoretical maximum bite force of the lower jaw and the yield stress of the keel when it undergoes plastic deformation. After combining and analyzing the various performance parameters of the forging Mocenturion, a detailed strategy is ...... Oh, I guess the battle plan is on my hands. The plan was about how to maximize the damage dealt by the various weapons equipped by the Centurion of the Forge when facing the dragons.

Yes...... It's awesome to have a whole team behind you coming up with ideas. (To be continued......)
