Chapter 275: Hunting
While Rotan Deggi and Werner were chatting about the momentous events of his future, in a forest about a thousand kilometers from the city of Farina, the new dragon knight Elliott was struggling to make his way through a swamp filled with fog in the middle of the forest.
As the only special profession in the Eastern Continent that can transcend the limits of the five classes, Elliot did not need to suffer this kind of sin. Even if he is just a new dragon knight, it is naturally very convenient to get around, but he really can't have his own partner, a female golden dragon with a good personality.
However, this time he had to come to such a remote place alone, and even in order to hide from others, his golden dragon partner was arranged outside the forest to monitor whether anyone was approaching nearby, instead of accompanying him.
All of this, in the final analysis, involves Elliot's biggest secret.
- He is not from this world.
He was originally just an ordinary person, but after accidentally having a car accident one day, he found out that he had become a baby.
It didn't take long for him to confirm that he had encountered a common thing - crossing.
But unlike those protagonists, he doesn't have any golden fingers, nor does he have any special talents, until the day he becomes an adult, his spirit is suddenly pulled by some kind of pull, and he comes to a world full of magma, like hell, if he is not just a spirit body, I am afraid that he will be incinerated by the heat in an instant.
It took him a full half an hour before he calmed down and began to explore his surroundings. Based on the experience of his previous life, this place must have a special fate!
Sure enough, a moment later, a large amount of crimson magma rushed out from the originally calm lava sea, as if it was about to swallow the heavens and the earth.
Elliot looked horrified at the magma beneath it, and at this time, even he could feel that an extremely terrifying creature was hiding in this magma sea.
Not long after, in the magma sea, a huge object suddenly lifted from it, and a huge body covered with purple gold scales poked out of the magma, although it was only a small part of the body, but the volume was still extremely large.
The mysterious creature's faintly hideous and coercive head poked out of the magma, looking at Elliott, who was like an ant to him, and there was obviously a sense of dissatisfaction in his giant eyes.
Elliott realizes that it is the legendary dragon.
Although looking at the giant wings behind the other party, it was obviously a Western dragon, but it was also a legendary creature! If it wanted to do something to itself-
Suddenly, a bright light emerged, and the dragon's huge body suddenly shrank rapidly. In a short instant, he turned into a black-haired young man in his twenties, and his handsome face was full of indifference.
Then, as in the middle of the routine, the other party gave Elliot a large number of treasures, resources, and precious information - the corresponding price was for Elliot to find two special metals, one of which was the precious metal Misriru, and the other was the supermetal Olihagang.
However, Elliott, who was bent on finally getting ahead in the future, didn't notice the strange look in the other party's eyes.
Needless to say, Elliot quickly became stronger with what he got from the mysterious dragon, and successfully passed the dragon knight test a year later.
On this day, Elliot followed the information provided by the mysterious dragon to the heart of the nameless forest in search of a raw mine of Mithriru.
Having lived in this world for more than ten years, Elliot also knows some common sense, Misriru and Olihagang are extremely rare metals discovered nine thousand years ago, if you use the analogy of the world before him, even a piece of raw ore is equivalent to a very expensive opal in gemstones.
Misriru has excellent malleability and magic ability, and a small thin sheet can be used to engrave a large number of magic patterns, and then used as an important component in the magic computer. And if it is secretly processed in a special way, it can become extremely hard, enough to resist the physical and magical blows of the demigod powerhouse!
In addition, the raw ore of Misriru is also quite beautiful, and it is a popular trend in this world to rough process the raw ore of Misriru as a decoration among the great nobles.
And Olihagang is even more incredible, known as the "metal of the gods", although it has a mediocre appearance, it contains a large amount of strange energy, whether it is used as a building material, equipment raw materials or extracting energy for other purposes, it is a top luxury item in short supply.
It is conceivable that as long as you can find a raw ore vein, you can reap such huge benefits!
However, how rare are the raw ore veins of Mithriru and Olihagang? Almost everyone in the whole world knows their preciousness, so those ore veins that are easy to find have long been occupied by the major forces, and the only ones left are those that are little known or in the forbidden area of life.
Elliot had heard that there was at least one Orehagang Vein and three Misriru Veins in the depths of the "wasteland" in the northern part of the Western Continent, but that place was too dangerous for him to venture there as a new dragon knight.
Luckily, the message the mysterious dragon had given him was the location of a misriru vein - yes, in the forest.
After more than two hours of trekking through the mud, Elliott's eyes suddenly lit up, and a clear lake appeared in front of him. The cold air on the surface of the lake is constantly rising, and it is obvious that most of the chill in the thick fog comes from this pool of water.
"Finally I found it, and then I just used this magic, and then I was- what is that?!"
Elliott's delightful words were suddenly interrupted by something.
About 100 meters above the surface of the lake, the clouds are low at this moment, rolling and surging.
Elliot had never seen such low clouds, but what really shocked him was not the cold lake or the clouds, but something between the chilly lake and the tumbling clouds.
Is that......
A snake, to be precise, is a snake that is as black as black iron.
This big black snake, with a body length of more than 50 meters, stands up on the surface of the lake, and its head and tail seem to connect the clouds and the lake, like a sacred tree that supports the clouds.
A dull roar went straight into Elliott's heart.
It's just that this snake doesn't have a smooth and round body like an ordinary Warcraft snake. On either side of the snake standing among the clouds on the surface of the lake, there were two nodules, and the other two on the head, which looked disgusting and ugly.
- If it were a normal person here, he would indeed think so, but Elliot is different. Possessing the insight of another world, he suddenly thought of a possibility.
The serpent, plus these six are just the right place, and the clouds......
Wait a minute, why is this scene in front of you so similar to the story of the "snake dragon" in my memory? Isn't this supposed to be a Western fantasy world that has entered modern civilization?
After a brief moment of shock, Elliot decided to wait and see. The big snake in front of him, in Elliott's opinion, even if it is not the legendary true dragon, is definitely an existence that must be accomplished! If he shows up and disturbs at this moment, he is afraid that the end will never be good.
The clouds were rolling densely, and there was a faint flicker of thunder and lightning in them, and although it was silent, the coercion that filled the heavens and the earth was immense. The serpent's head poked into the clouds, and its muffled roar continued, apparently gathering momentum.
Suddenly, an explosion of thunder erupted, and bucket-thick lightning fell from the tumbling clouds and slashed at the snake.
"Shhhh
An angry roar came from the clouds, the snake's body shook violently, the snake's tail whipped against the lake, splashing waves several meters high, and the snake's head was dancing wildly, looming in the clouds.
At the moment when the snake's head danced through the clouds, Elliot was struck by lightning - in that snake's head, two sarcomas had exploded, and the antler-like horns stretched out at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Sure enough, it's a dragon!
Serpentine Dragon!
At the same time, several lightning bolts slashed down and slashed at the black snake, causing the snake's body to flash with silver light. In the flash of silver light and the splash of electricity, the scales around the big snake soared, and the thin scales of the snake quickly turned into flying fish scales!
In the blink of an eye, four thick bolts of lightning slashed down, slashing at the sarcoma on the limbs of the snake's body impartially, and in an instant, the flesh and blood flew out, and in the blood foam, the young claws stretched out......
In the legend of the original world, the snake turned into a dragon, which was originally a breakthrough to change one's life against the sky, and the way of heaven was intolerable.
The snake's body is constantly transforming, and the lightning falling from the clouds is more dense. The rumbling sound of explosions and dazzling white light overwhelmed Elliott's sight and hearing, threatening to blind him.
The serpent twisted and writhed, stirring up the entire lake.
I don't know how long it took for Elliott's sight and hearing to gradually return to normal, only to find that the clouds that strangely appeared more than 100 meters above the lake were slowly dissipating, and the turbulent lake surface was also calm.
Not far away, the head of the serpent rested in the mud pool, and most of it was submerged in the muddy water, while the snake's body extended out, and most of it sank into the lake.
Obviously, this black python has undergone earth-shaking changes in the lightning and thunder.
The huge snake's head grew horns, its horns were like a deer, its eyes were like a cloud rabbit, its ears were like a bull, its head was like a rock camel, its neck was like a blood python, and its belly was like a mirage......
There are scales on the body, the scales are like golden carp, there are claws, the claws are like eagles, and there are palms, and the palms are like tigers......
There is also a beard next to the mouth of the she, a pearl under the chin, and the reverse scales under the throat are still slowly condensing......
Everything has begun to take on the form of a dragon, and if it continues like this, it seems that the black python will turn into a dragon and return to the clouds!
Elliot stared at the body between the mud and the cold pool, although the other signs were hidden under the mud and in the lake, there was no doubt that the great snake had completed its metamorphosis.
A real dragon!
Even if he had only heard legends before, but now based on his own observations, Elliot knew that the other party must be in a state of weakness, but soon, this weakness would disappear and be replaced by the demeanor of a true heaven and earth god.
He was hesitating.
He didn't know if the Great Serpent would continue to stay here after turning into a dragon, and if that misriru vein would fall into his hands.
What's more, the value of a newborn true dragon may be greater than the ore vein! If you miss this opportunity, I really don't know if you can encounter such an opportunity in your life......
Gritting her teeth, desire eventually triumphed over reason and awe, and Elliott decided to take a risk.
