Chapter 36: The Rock Dragon
John listened to Carmeline's words and learned a lot of information. It seems that after that, it will be a tough battle.
Kamary watched John's movements, "Do you want me to kill that rock dragon?" With just a slight thought, this rock dragon will disappear directly from the roots, leaving not even the slightest trace of existence. John shook his head: "No need, let me come, you must know that the dragon clan is full of treasures, if I can kill this rock dragon, then I can get a lot of good materials." "Well, that's right. And if you can feed the little dragon vulture with the flesh and blood of the rock dragon, you can also purify its blood, although the effect is not very good at one time, but as long as you eat all the flesh and blood of a rock dragon, it can also lay a good foundation for its subsequent transformation. But that's not all you have in mind. Catherine saw through John's purpose at a glance and said.
John nodded, the obsidian greatsword in his hand was held tightly, and a sense of battle rose from John's body: "It's rare to find a completely unknown enemy who can fight me head-on, how can I let it go?" ”
When Catherine heard that John was going to do it herself, she didn't start killing the poor rock dragon. But this is not a good thing, this time it was not erased, it means that it will be peeled and cramped by John after a while, which one is worse than this or directly erased, who can say clearly.
John's position is still quite awkward right now. Judging from the information sent by Camyline, the rock dragon's sense of smell is still very sensitive, and if an unfamiliar smell appears in the lair, it will definitely attract the attention of the rock dragon. And John's current location should be the vent of the rock dragon's lair, or the vent of the upwind position, this position has the wind to blow John's scent into the rock dragon's lair, so that the rock dragon who returned to the lair is alert, so this time, John is not prepared to directly fight the rock dragon head-on. Who can backstab who will fight head-on at the beginning?
It's just that with the previous moves, it is impossible to achieve the combat method of backstabbing the start this time, so the only way to take advantage of the fact that the rock dragon has not come back to observe the environment here and prepare for the next battle is to find at least a good ambush location for the next battle.
Walking into the lair, John's eyes lit up: he originally thought it was just a larger cave, but he didn't expect it to be a huge cavern, not only the area inside is very large, but there is also a big opening at the top of the cave, big enough for the rock dragon to enter the cave from above. A lot of sunlight came in from this big opening**, dispersing a lot of the dark and damp air inside the cave. I don't know if it was from the big hollow above or the seeds wrapped in the belly of the prey, and it fell into this cave, plus there was a little water flowing into the mountain wall, and a lot of plants grew, and a big tree with a few fruits hanging on it. Of course, these are just the environments, the most conspicuous is a nest on a high earth platform, made of various branches and bones, with two large dragon eggs in the nest, and even if they fall into the nest, some of the tops still pop out. But the troublesome thing is that there is no place for John to hide, and the little dragon vulture is very uncomfortable because it is suppressed by the rock dragon breath that is more dominant in the bloodline, and pulls John's tail back from time to time. Thinking of this, John could only retreat to this big hollow air inlet—the place where he came in.
However, John did not leave directly, and now that he knew the situation here, John was a little concerned about whether there would be something to be found in the other direction of the fork in the road.
With this in mind, John took the little drulture back to the fork in the road and walked in another direction. The discovery in this direction was also considered to be beyond John's expectations, and John found veins that had been extended from the ore he had seen outside, and the quality was even better than what he had seen before. It seems that this place is indeed very suitable as a stronghold, so thinking about it, that rock dragon needs to be solved.
John left with the druvon and looked like he was going to continue looking for a place to live temporarily. However, since this place has been selected as a stronghold, it is necessary to fight against the rock dragon, so the place chosen now needs to meet the needs of not being discovered by the rock dragon and being able to observe the rock dragon's movements, and only by knowing the rock dragon's movements can you make a plan to deal with it.
In the end, after Lily had found enough prey, she could not find it, so she could only build a temporary tree nest with branches around it, and then set up a campfire next to it, and began to monitor the rock dragon.
However, John didn't know that in fact, the place he chose to observe the rock dragon was also the territory of the rock dragon, or in the area with the nest as the center and a radius of more than ten kilometers, it was the territory of the rock dragon. Thankfully, Kamlaine helped John hide his station, so that the rock dragon never noticed the situation.
After observing for a long time, John found that the rock dragon would go out to hunt every three days, except for a few days after the initial discovery of John's scent, and each hunt would spend most of the day outside, and would definitely come back before dark anyway, and would bring one or two large prey, such as deer, or cattle and sheep, and even a kind of beast in the water was carried back to the lair by the rock dragon.
After figuring out the guy's habits, John began to think about how to attack this goal. I don't know if this rock dragon eats or not, but why do you want to jump out and attack it while it is eating? Or is it unrealistic to use poison? Or is it an ambush in the lair when it leaves? There is no place for an ambush.
John was still thinking about how to ambush him, and the rock dragon seemed to have encountered something, John found that it did not return to the lair on time for this outing, and only when the sun had risen the next day did the rock dragon flap its wings and fly back to the lair. This time, not only did the rock dragon not come back with its prey, but it could be seen from the flight attitude of the rock dragon that this rock dragon was also injured, and it didn't even fly smoothly. John's eyes lit up: And this kind of good thing?
Thinking of this, John told Lily to move around at will today, and asked the little dragon vulture to follow Lily out as well. When they were out into the jungle, John got up and walked towards the rocky mountain. It seems that today I will be able to put the base in my own hands.
