Chapter 145: Dragon's Back Mountain Range
With the passage of time.
The sun rises again on a new day, illuminating this red earth.
Even though it's December, the Red Earth Continent is still very hot, the air is filled with gray dust and blazing smell, and the ground is visibly starting to appear in waves of heat, producing light refraction that makes everything shake as if it were in water.
The land is bordered by mountains that do not extinguish the fire, and the indigenous creatures who live here have never felt the cold of winter, let alone seen snow, in the hot summers all year round.
If you have a thermometer, you can know that the temperature here does not fall below 30°C for a day throughout the year, even during the rainy season once a year!
"Whoosh! ——”
A blast of wind whistled through the sky with a huge dragon-like afterimage, sending a cool breeze to the hot earth and soothing its restless heart.
Ron was roaming over the crimson land at a speed of over 700 meters per second.
"That's pretty much it."
His elongated, colored pupils scanned the several hidden roads below, one of which, according to the old man, had left the mountain from the fire.
"Where the hell is it? Cute little red dragon. ”
Ron's massive body flew rapidly around the area.
For him, maintaining a flight speed of 700 meters per second to observe the terrain below is just right, not tiring or slow.
If you were going at full speed, you wouldn't be able to observe it in such detail.
It's been 3 hours since he left the Centaur Tribe, and Ron has patrolled the surrounding mountains for 2.5 laps!
"Damn, where the hell is that red dragon? Could it be that the old man is pitting me? ”
Ron frowned as he looked at the empty red rocky mountains below.
It took him less than half an hour to fly to the vicinity of the [Dragon's Back Mountains] that the old man said, and then carefully searched for the traces of the legendary red dragon that attacked the elven expedition.
But after a careful search,
Except for the heat in the air and a few flaming humps stuffed between his teeth, Ron found nothing.
[It is worth mentioning that an unknown iridescent dragon choked on a mouthful of volcanic ash when he tried to eat the Flame Humpbeasts, and he was furious, and with a bite of dragon breath, he turned the group of Flame Humpbeasts into nothingness, and vowed never to eat this creature with the same taste as a stone again.] 】
"There's no magma here, it stands to reason that the red dragon has lived for so many years, isn't it long overdue for the lava mountain to appear?"
Ron, a little puzzled, looked around again, but still found nothing.
It stands to reason that a red dragon will basically not migrate again after establishing a nest territory, as long as the general location of his lair is known, it should be easy to find.
Red dragons are not Centaur wanderers, they are territorial creatures.
The centaurs use the sky as the bed and the earth, wandering in various regions, either moving or on the way to move every day.
And a red dragon that has found a territory out of its youth may never leave the territory for more than fifty kilometers in its lifetime.
In addition to eating and sleeping, they will "occasionally" go out to loot or reproduce, but this is limited to the surrounding territory.
Moreover, the places where the red dragons live will slowly turn into a magma field due to their own regional characteristics, which will be very obvious when viewed from above.
"Could it be that the legendary red dragon has moved?"
Ron flicked his tail a little irritably.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang.
The wind pressure from the dragon's tail blasted the ground below into a crack hundreds of meters long, killing several innocent flame hump beasts.
The poor fellow, because he was not tasty, was bombarded into slag by a passing legendary dragon.
It stands to reason.
If there were red dragons roosting around, Ron would have made such a big move, he should have come out to check it out.
As for the possibility that it would suddenly go out and not be at home, Ron basically didn't think about it.
Most red dragons live in their fixed territory and are reluctant to leave their nests.
Red dragons like the bard's mouth told about leaving the lair to attack the human kingdom for no reason are actually very few.
In human parlance, it is more "homely".
There are only two scenarios for them to move - being defeated by other mobs or finding a better place to live.
"No way, let's continue to expand the scope of our search."
Ron waved his dragon wings, made a deft turn in the air, and began to search southwest of the Dragonspine Mountains.
The farther west you go, the more habitable your surroundings become, with trees beginning to appear on many of the bare mountains and intermittent rivers on the ground.
Ron remembered that when he looked through the elven diary before, there was a record in it.
The elf Karan falls off a cliff after being attacked, is rescued by a human, and makes a love affair by a colorful lake.
If you can't find the red dragon, you can find the lake.
According to the old man's horse, he was the group of elven expeditions he met more than 120 years ago, and he didn't know if the lake was still there after all these years.
If the lake and the dragon were to disappear, it would be a needle in a haystack.
Thinking of this, Ron couldn't help but flick his tail irritably in the air.
He hated this kind of luck thing the most
I knew that there were elves here, but I couldn't find any trace of them, so it became a problem to get the water of life.
If you can't find the water of life, you won't be able to complete the travel goal, and if you can't complete the travel goal, you won't be able to get system rewards to quickly improve your strength, and at the same time, you won't be able to start the next plane trip.
And all this will lead to the inability to find his way home and tear the succubus queen by hand
"Whew-"
Ron shook his head, banishing the distractions from his mind and not continuing to think further.
The heat here seems to make me impatient.
Perhaps in this matter, those few flame hump beasts also contributed a lot.
————————
The Dragon's Back Mountains are made up of thousands of large and small peaks with a total length of more than hundreds of miles.
From the air, the entire Dragonspine Mountains resemble a huge keel spine across the crimson earth, which is where its name comes from.
Among them, Baiyu Mountain is located in the westernmost part of the Longji Mountains.
"Boom!"
A huge black shadow landed vertically on the 1,735-meter-high emerald green peak, as if the entire mountain had been shaken, stirring up a burst of dust that completely enveloped the entire peak, making it impossible to see what was happening.
"Whew-"
The dragon's wings swung slightly, and a visible circular shockwave pushed the billowing dust around, revealing the behemoth at the summit.
With a wingspan of more than 70 meters, the wings show a crystal clear texture in the sun, as if they have been plated with a layer of gold by the sun's rays.
His body was 35 meters long, his back was covered with hard colored diamond scales, and the end of his tail shone with three sharp tail spines, and the pale purple aura circulating on it made people feel fear.
This colorful dragon is none other than Ron, who suddenly landed from the sky.
"Is this it?"
Ron looked curiously at the mountainside.
When he was searching in the air just now, he found that there was a magic array on this ordinary mountain peak blocking his vision!
It felt like a round black bubble suddenly appeared in the crystal clear water that was once unobstructed, making it impossible to see what was inside.
It's not something that can be done casually.
With Ron's current strength, even if he didn't use the Scout Magic, a masking circle below the 5th ring would be basically ineffective against him.
In other words, this masking circle is at least 6 rings or even 7 rings or more!
And with the strength of the legendary red dragon, arranging this kind of magic circle is also in line with his identity.
It's just that I don't know why, Ron deliberately made such a big move, and I didn't see him (her) come out to welcome him.
But it doesn't matter.
Ron looked at the mountain that was hidden by the magic array, and found that in addition to the covering circle, there was also an 8-ring defense circle!
This discovery made Ron sure that the red dragon was definitely here, otherwise who else would have set up such a high-ring magic array in this wilderness?
Thinking of this, his colored pupils couldn't help but glow with excitement.
Little Red Dragon, you really make me look for it!
Knock, knock, knock
Ron walked slowly on the peak, and the sound of heavy, powerful footsteps made the peaks seem to tremble slightly.
The massive body of the iridescent dragon left deep marks on the mountain peaks, showing the world his incredible weight.
Wherever Ron had stepped on, it was immediately compacted, as if it had been rolled back and forth by a roller for three days and three nights, and became smooth and hard, as if no human could shake its solidity.
The giant masking circle had a radius of hundreds of meters, covering nearly half of the Emerald Mountain, and Ron slowly approached the area wrapped in the circle, while unleashing his dragon might.
"Hum—"
A substantial burst of colored light erupted around Ron as the center.
The wind and waves of his scales blew up the stones and sand, giving off an indescribable aura. It was an aura that was extremely powerful, as if the entire mountain peak was under his control by this colorful dragon.
The demonic beasts in the dozens of surrounding mountains all trembled under his dragon might.
Ron's hand was the equivalent of a hello.
This is similar to how people in previous lives met each other and greeted each other with "Have you eaten?" ”
When the dragon meets, Long Wei raises his hand as a gesture of friendship.
Ron tried to provoke the red dragon to come out, he wasn't here to ask for trouble, he just wanted to ask something.
Otherwise, Ron would have had a single iridescent breath to make any dragon below the demigod disappear into the world.
If it's not enough, then two!
It's a pity that the huge round golden magic array didn't react to Long Wei, but instead became stronger under the fluctuation of magic power.
"Ahem, is there a dragon?"
"Fellow open the door, I'm a good dragon, I don't take a stitch from a group of dragons."
"Open Sesame?"
"The FBI is here to check the water meter!"
Ron walked over to the magic circle and tried to tap the protective layer.
"Bang" "Bang"
The curved dragon fingers that shimmered with colored light collided with the magic wall, producing a crisp sound similar to that of striking glass.
Feeling the fluctuations of the magic circle in front of him, Ron's eyes lit up, and he once again affirmed what he was thinking.
In terms of this defensive strength, it is almost an 8-ring protection array. Except for the legendary red dragon, it was really difficult for other creatures to arrange such a powerful magic array.
"If you don't come out, I'm going to go in?"
Ron knocked on the "door" again, he was just trying to communicate, but he didn't expect to knock on something a few times.
"Whoosh!"
A cylindrical golden light suddenly burst out of the circle, flew in front of Ron's eyes, and came to a standstill.
Ron watched curiously as the golden light in front of him slowly changed form.
"What do you mean, fellow? If you can't open the door, you can give an explanation~~"
Ron could feel that the energy in front of him was not some attack magic, but just pure magical energy.
The golden magic twisted into a few lines of text in front of Ron.
The owner of this magic is obviously a little unskilled in this work, and the writing is like a ghost drawing.
After some tossing, this cylindrical golden light finally succeeded in forming four lines of text in the air.
Maybe it was afraid that Ron wouldn't understand, but it actually wrote it again in the continental lingua franca, and then in dragon language!
[Ron: What about me when I'm illiterate? 】
As he finished writing, the extra golden glow turned into a half-hourglass, and a little golden glimmer flowed down from the hourglass, as if to time Ron.
Ron curiously glanced at the golden hourglass, and then slowly read the four lines of golden words:
"She is round, and now she is flat as a board"
"Altar of the Wolf Lords"
"Jewels on black velvet, pearls in the sea"
"Constant and regenerative change, never stopping."
Today, every day, add a more chapter.
