Chapter 366: Quest's Physical Persuasion (Ask for Subscription!Ask for Monthly Pass!Ask for Recommendation Ticket!)
Stubborn Rock, who couldn't remember when he was last defeated, heard the name of Kord, the god of power, spew out of Queth's mouth, and his rock-solid heart even twitched for a moment.
His eyes like lava balls dimmed a lot in an instant, and the stubborn rock said weakly, "It turns out that you already know. โ
The tone of his voice was somewhat unexpected by Quis.
By observing his previous behavior, it can be seen that this stone man named Stubborn Rock is definitely thoughtful and stoic at the same time.
Generally speaking, mortals with such traits will not give up hope even in desperate situations, and will give it a go knowing that they will die.
But now, just because he mentioned the name of that Kord, he had the idea of dying quickly.
It's very abnormal, very abnormal. Quest suspected that his previous judgment might have been somewhat biased.
You know, Kord is only a god of strength, not a god of victory.
He encourages his admirers to strive for the laurels of competitive victory, but rarely punishes the loser.
For Kord, what is even more admirable, or perhaps more befitting of his priesthood, is the tireless efforts of mortal worshippers in the pursuit of competitive victoryโthe actual act of power.
Even, for some worshippers who have worked hard, but are unable to survive due to their own racial conditions, this god of power will sometimes be particularly favored.
He will personally send down divine power to free him from the shackles of his body so that he can pursue the laurels of victory.
So conversely, for Kord's admirers, failure is not terrible, the real horror is the fear of failure itself.
As a person who dares to "lurk" into the bottomless abyss and carries out the dragon slaying plan step by step, Stubborn Rock is by no means idle.
Before making a move with him, Quest even felt that the other party might be a god who was undergoing his own training.
However, during the entire battle, the stubborn rock did not reveal any divine aura.
When your life hangs by a thread, you still have to hide your strength?
It certainly can't be, but Quest can't guess why, unless-
"Why do you want to slay the dragon, is it not just to please the god of power, or is there some other reason?"
Quest is neither omniscient nor omnipotent, so he naturally asks questions if he doesn't understand (this is a good habit and worth learning from everyone).
Hearing this question, Stubborn Rock was startled, and he found that the other party didn't seem to know all his intentions.
"It turns out that the Batzu Devil is not so powerful. โ
Stubborn thought to himself, "Bah", and spat out a stone in his mouth, which had been one of his teeth.
"Let's make a deal, if you help ...... No, as long as you don't interfere with my plans anymore, I will tell you the reason for slaying the dragon. โ
Bang!
The sandbag-sized fist of the young blue dragon hit the bridge of the naughty rock's nose, and some broken stones flew again.
"Losers, not qualified to make trades.
Besides, you think I really don't know, the mortals who are bound by the contract to the front line of the bloody war are paying back the devil's interest.
You are not eligible to enter into any deed of exchange until the debt has been paid off completely.
It seems that my persuasive skills are still not enough. So...... have you ever heard of the term 'physical persuasion'?"
Glancing at the collapsed Crunan Stone Man, Quest raised his fist again.
Bang, bang, bang, bang......
Even with the racial bonus - the Crunans rarely fall into disadvantageous states such as vertigo and blindness due to their bodies made of rocks, but under the sincere physical persuasion of the young blue dragon, the stubborn rock eventually fainted.
This strong stone man, whose original dark cyan rock skin, first became pitted because of bathing in lava, and then after being hit by Quesi's heavy punch, there are now many places on his body that have exposed white stubble.
After doing this, Quest himself opened the door of the cavern, which had been sealed by the stubborn rock.
At this time, on the platform of the fifteenth layer of this giant stalagmite, those elite bone demon guards had already assembled.
After receiving the summons from Quest, they were quickly moved and searched every cavern on the stalagmite.
Those who dared to resist have been killed with hooks and sickles, and their bodies have been handed over to the scavengers in the city to dispose of.
As for what happened to the scavengers, Quest didn't really care too much, because the tragic fate of those mortals was already doomed when he signed the contract with the devil.
Moreover, even if it does not need to take on the task of frontal battle, the city is still on the front line of the bloody battle.
Participating in a protracted war, even a legendary powerhouse may fall at any time, let alone a mere mortal?
Doing your own thing and taking care of your partners is the main topic. In fact, it is not so easy to survive to the end.
Blood War is not a game, not only is there not so much grass for people to hide, but there will always be a few old yin who may want to fight black guns suddenly pop up inadvertently.
"That is called ...... Stitch"
On the way back to the commander's camp, Quest wanted to sort out his thoughts, but when he thought of the name of the mysterious dwarf powerhouse, he suddenly realized something, and quickly erased the name that was about to appear in his heart.
โ...... That guy, when he teleported away before, didn't seem to be casting a regular spell. Or rather, it wasn't a simple spell power, it seemed to be mixed with some psionic powers.
He claims to be the master of the stubborn rock, but what can he give to the stone man? Judging by his words and deeds, he does not look like a warrior monk at all, and it is unlikely that he is the great master of Shi Chanliu.
Although people cannot be disguised, not every dwarf creature has the potential to grow into Master Yoda.
There must be something hidden in this, and that stubborn rock must be hiding something......"
There are few coincidences in this world, at least that's what Quest always thought.
When he came to the front line of the bloody battle the day after that, he discovered a conspiracy in his jurisdiction that might be related to him:
The group of Ugros demons he had offended might be fueling the dragon-slaying plan of the stubborn rock, and once his plan succeeded, the young blue dragon would definitely follow suit, and even be punished by Bato's camp.
And just as he was tracing the source and trying to cut the detonation line of this time bomb, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of an atomic bomb that had entered the countdown next to the bomb.
The ethereal but substantial threat touched the senses of the young blue dragon, and he had to brace his spirit and treat it cautiously, "We must find out as soon as possible what this stubborn rock is hiding." โ
"If you can't find out by physical means, then go another way, but it must be fast. โ
