Chapter 496: Take it down
Survey Team 7 set off again after resting, and they took one of the bronze dragon's broken claws with them, and tracked them in the direction where the bronze dragon had disappeared.
Tracking down the escaped wounded prey, Wu Qi is very familiar with this kind of thing. Yue Zhanfei and the others, as soldiers of the investigation team outside the wall, are also excellent in this regard. They traced the gravel on the rocky beach, the extent of the wear, and the smell of the remnants of the bronze dragon, and finally came across a large valley after 20 minutes.
The rocks of this valley are a dull gray like most of the abyssal rocks, except that the dark gray has a little more silver. At the top of the valley there is a vegetative cluster that stretches to the end of the valley. The lush vegetation makes the dull silver mountains not look bare, and there is a clear sense of life.
Yue Zhanfei stood in the center, and the rest of the people gathered around him. With his right hand, he drew dots on the electronic map of Zhi Brain, while explaining to a few people from the logistics team who didn't know about the "Steel Valley".
"This 'valley of steel' is the lair of the bronze dragon, who was badly wounded and blind, and sure enough, returned to its lair. Next, we had to enter through the valley road ahead, be careful not to make any noise, and lean up the hill when we saw the dragon, looking for a boulder or something to prevent the scales of the bronze dragon from scattering. When all the staff are deployed, we will start harvesting and shooting, and we must succeed in one fell swoop, and we can't let it escape again! Have you memorized them all? ”
"Remembered." The crowd replied.
Yue Zhanfei glanced at everyone and continued, "What I said just now is the most important closing stage, and then I want to talk about the valley road. The Bronze Dragon's lair is not the only creature in it. There are many intricate weathered tunnels in the steel valley, and the roads in the tunnels turn a thousand times, and there are thirty or forty steel dragon birds inhabited in them. The Iron Dragonbirds are all second-order plague species, they are equipped with a variety of defensive abilities, their bodies are as hard as superalloy, and the bullets of electromagnetic kinetic rifles cannot kill them in a single hit, and they are also associated with the Bronze Dragon. The Bronze Dragon provides a safe habitat for the Iron Dragonbird, which takes its abilities from the Bronze Dragon's crystalline excrement and cleans it up, just like a crocodile and a toothpick. And now that the Bronze Dragon is wounded, the Iron Dragonbird will come to defend it instead! ”
"That is to say, we must eradicate this group of steel dragon birds that will protect the bronze dragon before we can enter the mountain!" Yue Zhanfei finished speaking.
Yue Zhanfei made full preparations before officially launching the battle plan to hunt the Bronze Dragon, and a lot of information on the Bronze Dragon was obtained through the joint efforts of all the people, and the information related to the Dragon's Lair was the bottom that he and Wu Qi had discovered. There is plenty of information, even if they fail to kill the Bronze Dragon on the spot in the "Funnel", they still occupy a certain degree of initiative after the Bronze Dragon escapes back to its lair.
"The only question now is 'how to eradicate these steel dragon birds?'" They are highly defensive and vigilant, numerous, and flying, and we lack long-range range attacks on our team. And one thing is for sure, we can't go to their home turf to fight. Wu Qi said. He hadn't figured out a general solution to the Iron Dragonbirds.
Pi Chunsheng held his chin with one hand. He had been pondering when Yue Zhanfei was talking to Wu Qi just now, and suddenly spoke at this moment: "I don't know what the principle of the Iron Dragon Bird's defensive ability is, if I can have a dragon bird to test for me, I may have a way to solve all the dragon birds." ”
Yue Zhanfei listened to Pi Chunsheng and glanced at Wu Qi, as if he had thought of something. He said, "Xiaopi, your ability should be fine. Wu Qi said that the skin and bones of the Iron Dragon Bird contain an excessive amount of metal elements, and the defensive abilities of the body are also inseparable from the metal elements, which are obtained from eating the crystals excreted by the bronze dragon all year round. ”
Wu Qi nodded. When he and Yue Zhanfei were investigating, they had hunted a steel dragon bird, and used the revelation of life in the wilderness to see through the dragon bird's body, and came to the conclusion that Yue Zhanfei was now mentioning. However, he didn't know what ability and method Pi Chunsheng was going to use.
Pi Chunsheng said decisively: "That's feasible, we put down the dragon's broken claws on the edge of the valley road, as long as the broken dragon claws can attract the steel dragon birds, I will use 'petrification' to convert all the 'minerals' in their bodies into stone, and then you will reappear to harvest." ”
Pi Chunsheng has two positions in the No. 7 investigation team, one is the "occult navigation" that Wu Qi and others know and are very impressed, and the other is an important "field control assistance". In the past investigation tasks outside the wall, Pi Chunsheng played the role of "field control assistance" most of the time, and "recitation" rarely played a role, basically "sitting on the cold bench".
Wu Qi quickly absorbed the information that Pi Chunsheng said and understood. He has a good memory, and when he first met Yue Zhanfei, Yue Zhanfei said that Pi Chunsheng was an indispensable field control assistant for the team when he introduced Pi Zhanfei. "Field control" is the main thing, and "the insight and study of the occult" is secondary.
However, in the current task of investigating the Ark of the Throne, Pi Chunsheng has not played the role of "field control assistance" once, but the ability "Nian Bu", which has been sitting on the cold bench, shines, so Wu Qi and the others almost forgot about Pi Chunsheng's main job.
According to Pi Chunsheng's battle plan, everyone placed the broken claws of the bronze dragon in the center of the valley road, and each of them hid themselves in each section of the valley road. More than a dozen steel dragon birds were flying and gliding from the sky above the steel valley, hovering inside and outside the valley. They resemble birds for three parts and pterodactyls for seven times; When the figures overlapped with the blazing white arc of light, it seemed to the eyes of people that their whole bodies were wrapped in silver light.
Just as a small group of Iron Dragonbirds circled over the valley road, suddenly a steel dragonbird smelled the breath coming from below, and led a group of companions to swoop and slow down and land on the valley road.
More than a dozen steel dragon birds surrounded the dragon's broken claws in the center, some of them tentatively poking the surface of the dragon's claws with their long pointed beaks, and some of them looked around and were alert to the situation.
The length of this dragon claw was almost the height of a normal adult male, and it was huge, weighing hundreds of kilograms. At the beginning, Wu Qi and Yue Zhanfei thought that "they can't fight in the home field of the Steel Dragon Bird, they must be attracted", so they carried it to the mouth of the Steel Valley.
