Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Dragon Lizard
The egret could vaguely feel a familiar sensation coming from due north. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info That's the call from the bloodline, even if the egret is a dragon bloodline that has only recently fused, but it can still deeply feel the indescribable attraction from the body.
It was as if something was calling him, not some mysterious premonition or intuition, but a voice or message that only he could hear.
It's not really a comfortable feeling. Perhaps this is due to the fact that dragons themselves are not social species, they are at the top of the food chain, and only gather in groups during wars or raids. And now this call, like a high-ranking dragon calling a low-ranking dragon, makes the egret have an instinctive desire to approach.
There are two sides to the story. On the one hand, this attraction can reduce the time for the egret and his party to judge the distance, and on the other hand, the egret needs to spare energy to restrain this urge to be ordered, which reduces a lot of perception and combat effectiveness to a certain extent.
"It's too desolate here. "The night cat's boots step into the ground, and the sandy land is like walking on the desert. Although it is not hot or dry, the fine sand deeply pulls everyone forward. It's impossible to move quickly.
"You can see that this was originally an oasis island. Jayne said, pointing to the crystallized remains of green trees looming in the sand. As a result of the explosion, the original towering trees were destroyed, and the remnants were covered with a layer of gravelly crystals, which looked like stones.
Thick fog covered the land, and it was not easy for the egrets to move forward. However, after the initial sandy ground, rocky ground gradually appeared. These monoliths do not look like they were formed naturally, but have been artificially modified and placed on the ground.
The egrets looked at each other and understood. This shows that they are on the right path, and they are now close to the ancient dwelling of the dragons. As higher creatures, dragons are not wild-dwelling. They also liked extravagant large buildings, and even if they were not very capable of designing, as the top species of the time, they could drive the elves and humans to build large halls and dwellings for them. So to think that the dragon lives in some cave is completely a fantasy and a disparagement in the human mind.
As soon as she stepped onto the rocky ground, Nina's face tightened. "Something is approaching at high speed. Nina then drew the elf's blessing and stood at the front of the line. Also acting together was the egret, and almost at the same time as Nina spoke, the egret also felt the familiar aura approaching, and this kind of person seemed to have a sense of rage and danger on its body, which also made the egret clench the backlight.
Within seconds, a huge black shadow rushed out of the mist. When I looked at it, it was a giant lizard. This is a very good evolutionary creature that has been fused with dragon blood. It's just that due to the demonization, this large creature appears to be irritable. It is estimated that he sensed the existence of the egret and the others, and the big guy rushed straight over and stopped not far ahead.
"Roar!"
The demonized dragon-blood lizard let out a loud roar. The egret understood what the guy meant almost instantly. Pulling out the backlight, a dodge slashed forward.
"This guy is calling for his companions! Hurry up and stop it!" the egret slashed as he slashed, slashing at the dragon lizard's neck almost before the dragonlizard's howl reached its peak.
The dragonlizard's cry stopped abruptly, and blood spurted out as if it were dying. This guy's defense is not high, and he can't compare to the dragon at all. Even the hatching dragon species is much stronger than it.
After the first blow was successful, Locke and the night cat attacked as well, killing the dragon lizard in a few clicks. But the egret didn't have a relaxed expression at all, and immediately called: "Stand back, be on alert!"
As soon as the words fell, a giant claw rushed in. slapped directly on Locke's greatsword, Locke's body shook and exchanged a few steps before he unloaded his strength.
"These guys have a lot of strength. Locke shook his wrist and said solemnly.
The dragon lizard is not a guy who lives alone, the howl just now has attracted the arrival of many dragon lizards, and the black shadow came forward densely, and Jayne's face turned pale. "There are too many!" he began, "how can there be so many demonized dragon lizards." ”
"After the Big Bang, there may be a small number of creatures that survived. Lizards like to stay underground, perhaps because they don't all go extinct. The creatures then survived by eating the flesh of the dead dragon. It's like this!" Doni heard the situation from the communicator and immediately analyzed it in the headset.
"And these guys breed well!" a dark smile cracked into the corner of the night cat's mouth, "I guess we have a fight." ”
While speaking, Nina had already projected 6 projection swords, like a legendary sword fairy, guiding the sword body to attack. The blade projected by Shenwu is extremely sharp, cutting into the skin of the dragon lizard is like cutting tofu, and with its own combat skills, it can make a dragon lizard lose its combat effectiveness in less than ten seconds, or even kill it directly.
Not enough is a drop in the bucket, and the number of dragon lizards not only does not decrease, but as the battle continues, it increases.
The egret had just slain a dragon lizard when the other attack hit him on the shoulder. The protection trembled, and the energy index seemed to be dragged downward, rapidly declining.
"Damn! don't get hit by these guys' attacks. Although the defense is not strong, the attack of these guys is not weak. The egret shouted.
Locke wielded his greatsword and sideways to block a claw strike, "You think. Then he turned and jumped up, stood on the head of a dragon lizard, and thrust his giant sword down, "What was I just calling?" The big guy was pierced through the head and fell to the ground to die. Locke didn't even have time to breathe, and in a burst of rolling and crawling, he dodged the combined attack of at least three dragon lizards.
This is obviously not going to work. The protection of the egret and their group is not unlimited, if they continue to be entangled like this, it will not take long for the protection to be consumed, I am afraid that they will be directly exposed to the demonic mist, even if the dragon lizards can't beat these few, they only need to be patient and wait, so that the egret and his party will be polluted by the demonized mist and be poisoned directly.
Jayne wandered through the gap between the dragon lizards, and he didn't get involved in the battle too much, but his eyes were closely watching the environment, and finally he made a discovery. "This is the Sacrificial Square, yes, the Dragon's Sacrificial Square. A short distance further afield, you will reach the place where the leader of the dragon lives. Don't get tangled with these guys anymore, if we can rush to the dragon's dwelling, we can stop them with the dwelling's own defenses. ”
There is no problem with this idea, because it is a dwelling for dragons, so naturally they will not build a temple with materials that can be easily destroyed by dragons. If they weren't sturdy enough, these higher creatures wouldn't live in the houses built by the tofu dregs project.
"After the Big Bang, are you sure there's still good buildings in there?!" exclaimed the egret, not so optimistic. "Even if it's intact, the dragon's dwelling place is so easy to break into?"
"That's why you need the ability to break the trap! I don't have that much time to think about the unexpected and get out of the breakout first. Our goal is not to clean up the monsters here, but to find the treasure trove. There's a good chance it's in the dragon leader's quarters. Jayne continued.
Everyone's eyes lit up, and what Jayne said was not wrong. The dragon leader's dwelling should be extremely sturdy, and it will not be easily destroyed by the explosion of the demonic weapon that has been researched. This weapon will also not be researched inside the residence, so there is a good chance that the dragon leader's residence is intact.
The egret reacted to this. Quickly stood still, and the momentum of his whole body was immediately stimulated. The demon dragon has changed, and if you want to break through, the current combat power is not enough to do it. The egret came up with a killer idea, just to buy time for everyone to get out.
The white egret's hands immediately turned into dragons, and his eyes became like snake pupils. He withdrew his backlit knife and used only his claws to grasp the dragonlid's head with a single blow.
This time the efficiency has improved a lot, and the egret disregards its own protection and shoots left and right. Immediately tore a way out in a straight line. Nina and the others no longer entangled, and broke through directly to the way out.
Sure enough, as Jayne expected, as soon as he broke out of the dragon lizard's encirclement, he saw a dark shadow of a building. The overall building was severely damaged, but the entrance and several large columns in front of it did not completely collapse. The passages inside are faintly visible, which is enough to prove how solid the structure was in the first place.
This living hall must have been extremely magnificent before the explosion, and the height of a few people when facing the gate was like children under a dozen stories high. The gate was closed, but a slit leaked diagonally due to the impact. It's like a glimmer of heaven at the Grand Canyon. Maybe not enough to pass through any large creatures, but for the egret group, the gap was enough for them to enter.
"Hurry up. "As soon as they saw this, a group of people stepped up. Jayne rushed to the door first, and squeezed into the door on one side. In order of combat power, Jayne, Ilian, Night Cat, Egret, Locke, and Nina must enter in order. So the egret, Nina, and Locke felt that they were behind the palace and resisted the dragon lizards that rushed after them.
"Egret, hurry up!" the night cat cried as he entered, "Damn, there's a trap in this gate, it was triggered when Jayne entered!"
The egret was shocked and turned his head to look. The trap opened on the gate has already revealed the brilliance of the technique, this is a protective trap that cuts off the empty space! Due to the instability of the magic energy, the trap was not launched at the first time, but it will not be long before this gap will be completely sealed, if the central controller cannot be found, I am afraid that no one can close this trap used to cut off the space inside and outside the gate.
Nina and the egret have a long-term cultivated tacit understanding, and as soon as they saw the egret's expression, they vaguely knew how bad the situation was. She reached out and grabbed the egret, then slammed it towards the gap in the gate.
"Nina?!" Egret was shocked, "what are you doing?"
"Protect Ilian!" Nina ordered, "leave us alone, make sure those who go in return safely." ”
Locke also smiled when he heard this, "Don't worry, little brother, I have experienced a more severe situation than this, in this battle, I will protect Nina instead of you." ”
What this means is that neither of them is going to go through the door. As soon as the egret was pushed into the gap, the entire gate began to close the space, and the space squeeze that was almost visible to the naked eye swooped down. The egret's teeth were about to bleed, but the situation did not allow him to hesitate more, and almost brushed the incision of the closed space, and rushed directly into the door.
"Nina and Locke?!" Jayne also heard Locke and Nina's voices, and looked at the egret in horror.
"They'll be fine!" the egret's eyes fluctuated, and his face was extremely ugly. "We don't have much time. Baoyu must be found as soon as possible!"
