Chapter 229: Fragments are missing, and the Demon Dragon's Egg [Ask for subscription]
The witcher is instantly recognizable from its name.
And it is straightforward and frank, highlighting the main points.
That's the "Demon Hunt".
As for the hawks, they should be the factions in the witcher forces.
For example, mages are also subdivided according to the elemental system they are good at.
The caster who came with the team this time was the wind system.
However, regarding the specific abilities and differences between the hawk demon hunters, Chen Xuan was not very clear.
But what is certain is that the Demon Hunter Force will definitely not be an unknown existence.
Since the other party had the strength to ban the dark magic dragon Belle hundreds of years ago.
Then even if it is not famous now, it will inevitably leave a relevant record.
After Chen Xuan planned to return to the city, he asked Angela Lauder to use the demon hunter as a keyword to inquire about the relevant information.
His instincts told him that the power called the Demon Hunter had a lot to offer.
It should be a good hand at dealing with monsters.
Squinting his eyes and thinking for a moment, Chen Xuan quickly had an idea in his heart.
The closure of the Naroa continent is relative.
After all, this is a fairly vast continent, with a multi-ethnic background and a brutal environment.
In such a situation, various forces or heroes will always be born.
As the years passed, many became relics or some kind of hidden inheritance.
And what Chen Xuan has to do is to slowly unlock the secrets that belong to this world.
Looking at the eagle's head mark on the edge of the stone platform, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.
After two or three minutes of silence, he withdrew his gaze.
Then he raised his hand and put the stout chains about 100 meters long into the spliced storage compartment.
The Greyfall Iron comes from the Grey Demon Moon, a rare exotic metal.
Regardless of whether you can find a special casting method in the future, it is always right to put it away first.
As a means left by the Hawk Demon Hunters, as long as the relevant inheritance information can be found, then the chains forged by these Gray Fall Iron can be reused.
Several chains take up a lot of space in the storage compartment.
They are hard and heavy, coupled with the ability to suppress the magic of chaos.
That's why he was able to suppress the black magic dragon Belle.
After dealing with these chains, Chen Xuan took out the spare mobile phone, turned on the camera function, and carefully recorded the remaining rune traces on it.
The texture of these stone platforms is not an ordinary stone, but a material called magic stone.
This material is common in Naroa.
It is characterized by its ability to isolate the perception of mental power to a certain extent.
After Chen Xuan took the chain, an extremely deep pit appeared on the stone platform.
God knows how the Hawkish Witchers poured the chains of the Greyfall Iron into the Demon Stone.
The depth of the pit is more than ten meters.
In this way, those demonic stone platforms should be stone pillars embedded in the rock foundation.
Chen Xuan quickly came to a conclusion and tried to record these details as much as possible.
After more than ten minutes, he waited until it was properly handled before he ordered to enter the ruins cave.
The entrance to this cavern is wide enough for the Black Magic Dragon to travel through with its membrane wings retracted.
He didn't bring too many people in, and only sent three squadrons of garrisons to take the lead.
Hidden in the Misty Canyon, this cavern has existed as long as the Black Dragon has been banned.
The air inside the cave is relatively dry, and there is no obvious smell or trace of monsters.
Chen Xuan had some guesses about this, but he didn't have any words to express it.
It's just that his expression has become more calm.
The garrison squadron walking in front of it carried a magic spotlight, and the bright beam of light illuminated the roof of the cave.
The first half of the journey was relatively gentle, and after advancing for more than 100 meters, the passage began to slowly extend downward.
No monsters appeared along the way to stop them.
So the crowd moved forward very quickly.
Under such circumstances, it only took seven or eight minutes to reach the ruins located underground.
Chen Xuan followed the team unhurriedly, silently observing the situation in the passage.
As he had guessed, the state of the cave was not normal.
To be precise, it's a bit of a special case.
It was not reset by Annihilation, and it also lost the ability to teleport to the monster that descended.
In other words, it's a cave where you can't "farm" monsters.
But the ceremonial altars located here are mostly normal.
This can be seen from the fact that the traces of the monsters' activities in the canyon are concentrated in the first half.
As for where those monsters came from, Chen Xuan guessed that it should be the result of some kind of conscription ceremony.
In addition to the characteristics of cross-realm presence, cave altars are another important factor, and they often have bells and whistles.
Strengthening, conscription, and the construction of large formations can all be achieved through ritual sacrifices.
And the consumables needed are only the flesh and soul of the Naroa natives.
Combining the concept of the Gate of Ten Thousand Sources and the Demon Descent, it is not difficult to see that the natives living in the continent of Naroa possess the mysterious power needed by the Outlands.
This force drives the monsters to plunder.
Billions of demons have come and gone.
They have long since taken over every corner of the Outlands.
Multiply like a disorderly tumor.
It was then rapidly consumed during the invasion of the continent of Naroa.
Chen Xuan had never been to the Outer Regions, but he could imagine how big the Outer Regions were.
After all, even the continent of Naroa, which is an isolated land, is so vast, then the outer lands with more land will only be larger.
Thinking in his heart, he followed the outpost to the cave hall.
This is where the core area of the cave is located.
What catches the eye is a hall with an area of several thousand square meters.
More than a dozen altars were arranged in a strange formation.
All the altars were projecting large black beams of light straight upwards.
These beams were the key to the formation of the medium-sized Void teleportation channel.
They are able to penetrate the barriers of rock walls, and do not appear to be incorporeal.
Chen Xuan did not destroy these altars at the first time, but frowned slightly, and used [Insight] to observe them separately.
【Skinning Altar】
【Boning Altar】
【Altar of Eyes and Tongues】
【Soul Drawing Altar】
……
【Grey Foil Altar】
……
The surface of these altars glows with a dense glow of blood.
It looks like it's supposed to be the amount of energy needed to sustain the altar's activation.
Except for the [Gray Flash Altar], which is in a bleak state, the other altars are all activated.
Beams of light are sent towards the sky, and the seven altars that maintain the Void Passage and the Dark Mandala Light Curtain are mainly [Peeling], [Deboning], and so on.
After a cursory observation, Chen Xuan quickly came to a conclusion.
Each altar bears traces of being repaired after being damaged.
Repairing the teleportation array should have been one of the tasks that Ansetus had been tasked with as a tool man over the years.
With the guidance of the demon dragon, it is not impossible to restore the altar.
At best, there are some difficulties in collecting materials.
But Ansetus was controlled by the dragon, and there were nearly ten years of Naroa before and after.
That was enough time for him to solve the problem.
Without delving into the matter of the restoration of the altar, Chen Xuan immediately led everyone to search the entire hall and found a wedge-shaped passage leading to the depths.
After passing through this passage, he saw a gray portal made of two magic pillars.
Not far away, there is a special regional force field suspended in mid-air, isolated by a black cube light curtain
In this cube light curtain, there is a vaguely oval silhouette more than a meter long, floating and sinking.
Underneath the force field is a small altar embedded in the rock floor, which does not appear to have much presence.
Chen Xuan just glanced at it, and then focused his attention on the gray portal first.
It's the hallmark of the cave.
As far as he knew, almost all the caves relied on this kind of portal to complete the arrival of monsters.
The only thing that the gray portal here is different from the other caverns.
There are no swirling spatial ripples in the middle.
The gray light is like a dead lake, and there is no fluctuation.
Chen Xuan observed cautiously.
The golden hint refreshes in the mind,
【Demon portal that lost the key of the rose shard】
[Due to the lack of fragments, even if the magic pillar still maintains the spatial anchor point, this portal has lost the effect of spatial connectivity]
……
Seeing the information fed back by [Insight], Chen Xuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"The Key of the Rose is missing?"
"Could it be the handiwork of a hawkish witcher?"
The fact that the gray portal contained the fragments of the Rose Key was no secret to Chen Xuan.
The Rose Key Phantom in his mind absorbs shards and boosts his abilities.
But now it seems that someone has taken the lead.
It cannot be ruled out that the fragment of the Rose Key here was taken by the Witcher force who banned the Dark Magic Dragon.
This may mean that the Witcher has some sort of ability related to the Key of the Rose.
Of course, in addition to the above reasons, there may be other situations.
Either way, he already knew the cause of the cave's anomaly.
In fact, it has been destroyed, but it has not been completely destroyed.
There was even a bit of a rush.
Otherwise, the altars would not have been restored.
And the gray portal will not survive to this day.
As long as the pillar is removed and the spatial anchor point is destroyed, the portal will cease to exist.
This reminded Chen Xuan of another possibility.
That is, the destruction of the cave and the banning of the demon dragon may not be the same group of people.
Shaking his head, he put these distractions aside for the time being.
Hundreds of Naroa years have now passed since the incident.
Replace the years in the blue star, that is more than a thousand years.
What happened in the first place was already in the boat.
After so many years, it is useless for Chen Xuan to be in a hurry, it is better to relax, stay calm, and investigate the truth.
It's a pity that the demon dragon has long since died.
Otherwise, it should be able to ask something about the situation from its mouth.
It's just hard to do that.
The strength of the demon dragon was strong, and Chen Xuan could brutally kill it, but he couldn't suppress or subdue it.
If you want to force the question, it is even more difficult.
simply killed the most refreshing directly, and also put an end to possible hidden dangers.
After confirming the situation here, Chen Xuan stepped in front of the gray portal.
Reaching out a hand, he gently touched the unwavering teleportation light curtain.
Surprisingly, a new hint appeared.
[A mid-level portal to the Naroa Outlands, missing a fragment of the Key of the Rose]
[Fragments that can be infused with the Key of Roses×6 to awaken the portal]
[Yes] [No]
……
The operation is bidirectional.
Since it can absorb fusion, it can also be re-injected.
This gray portal is much higher in size than a tiny, small cavern.
Six Rose Key Fragments need to be infused to awaken it.
Chen Xuan decisively chose [No], and at the same time withdrew the arm that touched the portal.
The idea of destroying the magic pillar in his heart was also reined in.
This silent portal could be considered to be kept.
When the time is right, it's a good idea to wake it up and use it to farm monsters.
After all, monsters can produce magic cores and magic materials.
However, the level of this portal is not low, and Chen Xuan will only choose to wake it up when he is completely sure.
After deciding on the fate of the portal, he then walked towards the cube field.
As soon as his eyes narrowed, relevant information suddenly emerged.
[Breeding Ground for Breeding the Eggs of the Black Dragon]
[Black Dragon's Egg: The egg born by the dragon Belle Tobias Croaddy five hundred and seventy-six years ago is being conceived in the altar of the hotbed ceremony, and due to the failure to receive the essence and blood of the dragon mother for a long time, the vitality in the dragon's egg is in a dormant state]
[Break the altar below to remove the hotbed ritual force field]
……
After reading the subtitles quickly, Chen Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
"The Dragon's... Ovum? ”
I didn't expect there to be a dragon egg here!
Doesn't this mean that there is a chance to hatch a little black dragon?
Chen Xuan's mind instantly became active.
As a high-ranking creature, the dragon is not only physically strong, but also extremely capable of fighting.
It is one of the most handy mounts.
A real man has to ride a dragon.
However, the true dragons of the Naroa Continent are not visible, and the demon dragons have a brutal temperament that is difficult to tame.
The dragon egg means the opportunity to fulfill the wish of dragon riding!
Ophelia is a half-demon tamer.
She once briefly introduced to Chen Xuan how to tame monster cubs.
Compared to making a contract to tame an adult monster, cubs are much easier to subdue.
Chen Xuan planned to bring it back first and then see what to do with this Demon Dragon Egg.
As for the Black Devil Dragon's essence blood, it is not a problem.
The dragon corpse has long been disposed of.
Buckets of essence blood were extracted from the huge heart.
These essence blood contains extremely surging energy, and it is a valuable raw material in itself.
You can draw a high-level magic circle or refine alchemy potions.
Through the encapsulation of the magic array, it can be stored for a period of time.
After putting away the dragon egg, Chen Xuanzai carefully searched every corner.
A dragon scale the size of a shield was found.
The dragon scale was not faded, but changed into some kind of token.
The information fed back in [Insight] is [Dragon Puppet Soldier's Order].
This thing can be used to control the dragon golems in the canyon.
Except for those dragon puppets who first entered the canyon.
It cannot be ruled out that there are more dragon puppets in the canyon for the time being!
