……

When the pair of long, backward-leaning dragon horns above the dragon's head appeared in Matthew's field of vision, his first reaction was to be taken aback:

"Red Dragon?"

No, it's not.

Soon, he realized that the dragon in front of him was far from the real red dragon.

The horns of his head resemble that of a red dragon, but below the neck the style of painting has changed drastically, and under the fine and coarse scales, the creature has a bloated, short and swollen neck that almost blends with the fat body.

It is not difficult to see through the cracks in the collapsed building.

The dragon was almost fat into a flattened ball of meat!

His weak forelimbs were completely buried in the fat heap on his chest, and his hind limbs were hidden in the building, making it difficult to see.

Matthew settled down in an instant.

This is a standard wurm with at least 1/4 of the red dragon bloodline, and from its appearance, it is likely to be a hybrid of the red dragon and the earth dragon.

That is, a real earth fire dragon.

Of course, this kind of monster is not to be underestimated, but it is far from the real dragon.

After the dragon's groan.

A large number of rainforest creatures were scared away.

The dragon's head hung limply on the last remaining wooden shelf.

His golden pupils stared at Matthew's group.

Followed by.

A very majestic voice sounded in everyone's ears:

"Help!"

"Help me!"

Matthew looked back at Shiro.

The elf warlock shrugged:

"They didn't let me in here, they just said it was a secret place, but I heard Blinken mention that he caught a fire dragon and put it in there for the purpose of breeding."

Breeding?

Matthew looked at the fat Earth Fire Dragon again.

The latter cried with a handful of snot and tears:

"That's right, Blinken, that necromancer, locked me up in the desert for five, five years, do you know how I got here? Every day when I wake up, I eat, breed, eat, breed, I am about to be driven crazy by him! ”

"Don't look at me fat, in fact, I wasn't fat at all before, I'm flexible, it's really because of Blinken's conspiracy and too much breeding pressure in the past few years, which has led to the fact that the body shape is not well managed, and it has become the ghost I am now!"

"Blame that brute Blinken for everything! Eh, if you brave men can appear here, Blinken's bastard must have been wiped out by you, right? ”

Matthew looked at him curiously:

"Lingua franca speaks very fluently."

"Thank you."

The Earth Fire Dragon politely responded:

"My name is Arutren, my grandfather was a powerful red dragon, my father was not, he was just an earthfire dragon who only knew how to fight and estrus, but fortunately my goblin mother was smart enough to save my bloodline in time, she made me more intelligent and charismatic - in fact, when I lose weight, you will find that I am not bad."

As he spoke, Aru stretched out five paws to scratch his chin.

As a result, because he was so fat, his claws couldn't reach him anyway, Aru was in a hurry, and in the end, it was Matthew who accurately shot five arcane missiles to solve his urgent need.

Matthew turned around and discussed with the team for a while, and everyone felt that this earth fire dragon was not a threat, so they planned to enter the central tower to see the situation, and then decide whether to release this wurm with mixed bloodlines and not low intelligence depending on the results.

Although part of the tower has collapsed, the rest of it is still relatively strong.

Matthew and the others cautiously walked in.

They found the chubby lower body of the Earth Fire Dragon Aru in the tower, his belly and ass took up almost two-thirds of the space inside the tower, and the remaining feet, tail, and short wings could only be tucked under the belly and flanks, and it did look like a ball.

Arutren's body was interspersed with more than thirty heavy chains.

The chains also have magic spells attached to them.

"Are these spells meant to restrain your movements?"

Matthew asked.

"No, part of it is used to assist me in my movements, as you can see, I am so fat now that I can't even turn over on my own strength."

Despite being locked up as a breeding tool for five years, Aru still looks optimistic:

"And the other part, the forehead, is the one that sticks to my belly and tail, please be sure to help me get rid of it, which is used for aphrodisiac."

"Blinken, you can't imagine what the hell he did to me!"

While Matthew and his companions checked the situation in the tower, they chatted with Aru with a match:

"How did you get caught by him?"

Arulent complained:

"At first, I lived carefree in the depths of the dark region, but unfortunately one day the little black dragon in Frozen City went crazy and asked for double the tribute of all the creature nests around us.

As a last resort, I moved three times in the direction of the surface.

Shortly after my last move, I met Blinken.

At first, he disguised himself very well, and when he saw that I had a big appetite, he kept tempting me with a large amount of blood and food from cattle and sheep.

I couldn't resist his temptation, and the more I ate, the fatter I became, and I became good friends with him.

In about half a year, I went from a healthy handsome guy to a round ball of meat.

At this time, Blinken finally showed his ugly face, and he forced me to breed for him, of course I didn't want to, but at that time, I was completely ineffective because I was too fat, and I was captured by him in a few rounds.

After that, I was imprisoned in the territory of the Worship of the Dragons, tormented by them day and night.

I really regret it all these years.

If I had taken one less bite at the time, would I have been able to run a little faster and finally escape the clutches of that necromancer?

Ay! ”

There was regret in his tone.

Matthew smiled and asked curiously:

"What animals did Blinken let you breed with?"

"Oh, that's a lot, in the beginning, mammoths, rhinos, crocodiles, giant camels...... I tried all of this, and I was quite happy during that time, and I thought that although I had been fooled, life was not so bad, but soon, my nightmare came, one day, he brought back two terrible creatures, and a few days later, he told me that I had to keep breeding with that kind of creatures, and it really me off! ”

"If that's the case, forget it, what's even more hateful is that they are always excessive, sometimes I think they squeeze out the fat on my body, but I'm not even thin at all, this is so hateful!"

Aru complained.

"Anyway, I don't want to mention the name of that disgusting creature at all, you'll see it soon anyway."

Aru's words are true.

It didn't take long.

The group was in a large number of giant cages at the bottom of the tower, and saw an ugly creature with eight legs, short thin hair, and dense compound eyes.

……

"Milk Spider (LV11/Giant Creature/Ancient Creature): Good at participating in the reproduction and reproduction of any species, and most of the offspring born inherit the ability and morphology of the paternal line; The procreation of the offspring is also inherited in accordance with the patrilineal line."

……

With just one glance, Matthew understood why the Earth Fire Dragon driven by the Dragon Worship Cult was more like a spider in size.

"It's really the product of a large-scale hybrid between a fire dragon and a spider."

Matthew can basically conclude.

Blinken used his technology to continuously extract the fertility potential of Aru and the lactating spiders, resulting in a large number of cheap and low-quality dragon eggs.

After these dragon eggs were quickly matured and hatched, most of the young dragons were reduced to dragon ash in the black pit.

Blinken collects a large number of this material, and if it is said that just to prepare for the dragon lich transformation ceremony, he can make hundreds of dragon lich in batches.

There must be other uses for this thing.

And those young dragons who are lucky enough to survive in the deep pit are eligible to become members of the Dragon Worship Sect, and they will be raised and domesticated by a special dragon trainer for the Dragon Worship Cultists to burn and kill and plunder the outside world.

Although those Earth Fire Dragons are not worth mentioning with the cooperation of Matthew and Bobo, they are still difficult for ordinary adventure teams.

What's more, the targets of the Dragon Worship Sect's plundering are usually ordinary people.

"Judging from the number of dragon eggs in the Dragon Breeding Farm, although this place has only been built for a short time, it is indeed prepared in the direction of a protracted war. It's just that Blinken completely dispelled this idea later, and he directly abandoned the dragon breeding field, and then disappeared. ”

Ma Xiu walked outside the cage of the suckling spider.

These spiders look wooden and unresponsive, as if they were natural fertility machines.

"They don't seem to be very intelligent, and they don't even seem to have biological instincts."

Matthew asked, confused.

"That's the case, so it's not fun at all to be a seed—

I mean, the "Milk Spiders" are indeed not normal creatures, and when Blinken introduced them to me, he proudly stated that he had obtained them from some of the biggest names in the Seven Holy Alliance.

If you want me to say, this must be another mage in the lab!

It is impossible for nature to give birth to such a pure machine. ”

Aru said.

At this time, Li Weiqi, who had also been checking by the cage for a long time, said to Matthew solemnly:

"He's right, the lactating spider is not a natural creature, at least not the creature that nature should be now, and I sensed an uncoordinated "qi" in it, which means that it has traces of artificial synthesis."

"Not a creature now? What do you mean? ”

Matthew didn't know why.

"It is the product of ancient creatures, revived by magic, but magic often only recovers a small number of characteristics of ancient creatures, and this defect often produces many fatal sequelae."

Li Weiqi looked at Huyi, who was weak:

"I've heard that the Seven Saints Alliance has conducted several rounds of experiments on the revival of ancient mythical creatures, is there such a spider?"

Hugh Yi spread his hands when he heard this:

"I'm just a supernumerary person in charge of running errands, I will do whatever the old man tells me to do, and even if this kind of project exists, it will not be my turn to know."

Matthew's heart moved.

He had heard about the project from Taling 177.

Next.

The crowd quickly checked and counted the supplies in the tower.

Except that Matthew found a jar in the storage room that was suspected to have contained a large amount of Longshan ash and had just been taken away.

The rest of the things are basically in line with everyone's perception of the Dragon Worship Sect.

The thirty or so brooding spiders were of high magical scientific value, and Matthew had planned to transport them all back to Rolling Stone, but Arutren told him that the spiders would have to be fed Blinken's mana and blood regularly to survive.

Blinken hasn't returned for a few days, and many spiders' lives are showing signs of decay, and it won't be long before they all die.

This made Matthew feel sorry.

At the moment, he can only continue to keep these spiders in iron cages, and wait for them to die before taking away the corpses, at least as a material for the subsequent summoning of high-level undead creatures "Hades Spider" or "Frost Dead Spider".

The rescue of Arulente was long and laborious.

Fortunately, Lumière called a large number of Jango.

Even so, with multiple people working together, it would take hours to remove a chain that runs through the Earth Fire Dragon's body.

Fortunately, Arulente was very patient.

The Jango were still unchaining him here, and there was already snoring near the head of the Earth Fire Dragon.

It seems that what is said to be wide and fat is true.

After leaving the tower.

Matthew inspected several other buildings in the Nursery Farm.

After collecting all the things that should be confiscated.

Next.

Destroying the Dragon Breeding Farm is a matter of setting fire to it.

……

In the afternoon, the entire structure of the Breeding Farm except for the central tower had been demolished.

When Aru successfully escapes from the predicament, this place will also be burned.

From now on, the threat of the Cult of the Dragons to the rainforest will be temporarily removed.

Matthew, Rhaegar and Lee Weiqi deliberated for a while, and together they decided on a plan for dealing with the cultists' captives.

After breaching the Dragon Breeding Farm, there were about twenty dragon-worshipping cultists in their hands, including three high-level people: the necromancer Potter, the dragon-blooded warrior Kunbo Totra, and the goblin warlock White.

Combined with Xiu Yi's recommendation, Matthew plans to send all these people to the "Black Rope Mountain Fortress".

It was where the Seven Holy Leagues tried and held prisoners.

The reason for this choice was that, on the one hand, Huichi said that although he could not contact the Alliance Headquarters, he could contact the "Black Rope Mountain Fortress" on the west side of the desert.

According to the practice of the Alliance Headquarters, if these cultists are caught, they will also be sent directly to Hessoshan or a similar organization, which is in line with official procedures.

On the other hand, it is because the Seven Saints Alliance has offered a bounty to the members of the Dragon Worship Sect at a high price.

For members of the Dragon's Tooth level, the bounty reward for capturing alive is usually between 2000~2500 gold coins!

Killing a dragon tooth can only get about 500.

Ordinary Dragon Worshippers will be rewarded with about 50 gold each.

Even if it is for the sake of profit, they do not intend to kill these people directly.

Matthew estimated that this group of captives would probably be able to provide them with a bounty of about 7500~9000.

This bounty is barely inferior to the magic crystals they get in the dungeon!

The only hiccup is.

When checking the list of prisoners, Huichi said that the existence of the fairy sorcerer Bai was embarrassing, because she had only recently joined, and the alliance had not offered her a bounty, and if she was to be handed over to prison, she could only be counted as an ordinary cultist.

At this time, Bai said very kindly that she was willing to pay the ransom out of her own pocket.

Matthew was a little moved, but after thinking about it, he finally planned to hand over the goblin warlock to the Seven Saints Alliance.

However, he suggested that it could be done in a different way.

The next few days.

The group lived in the central tower.

The empty iron cages also became temporary cells for the dragon-worshippers.

While rescuing Arutren, they waited for the field staff of Hessoshan Prison.

At the same time, they are also secretly guarding against the possible emergence of Blinken.

Soon, two days passed.

As the rebellion is about to expire, Matthew transforms both Miss Zombie and the Bone Dragon into his summons.

The difference is that the former is just an ordinary summon, and even after the conversion ceremony, she still does not get the bonus of the Silver Moon Zombie, which makes Matthew feel a little pity.

The latter, on the other hand, occupies a contract slot and becomes the immortal of Matthew's fifth contract.

However, compared with Philorius, this skull dragon is of average quality and has poor attributes, and Xiao Boiling can almost beat him two.

After signing the contract, Matthew threw it into the negative energy plane and let it pick up the bones on its own.

But it doesn't really matter if this skull dragon is powerful or not.

Its very existence is the greatest significance to Matthew.

Besides.

The task of expelling the dragon worshippers that he received in the dream of the Black Banyan also shows that it has been completed.

may be because the follow-up Matthew is not very fierce.

In the end, he only took three more druid spells.

……

"Beast Sense: You touch a willing beast. When the spell is in effect, you directly feel the senses of the enchanted beast, including its special senses, but at this point your essence is considered to be equivalent to a state of blindness and deafness."

"Plant Locator: You call the name of a plant, and the plant will respond to you within 10 kilometers."

"Leaf Bloom: You grab a large leaf of any plant and wilt it for about 5 seconds, during which time you or your companion will regenerate a certain amount of health.

If you use this spell too much, it is easy to go astray, so please use it with caution!

Available times per day: 5"

……

All three spells have a certain usefulness.

In particular, "Leaf Blossom", which is the first healing spell that Matthew has obtained, he can finally milk in the back when his teammates fight in the future!

As for the description, mentioning this spell is easy to go astray.

Matthew claims to be a necromancer.

Compared with a normal druid, he has already gone astray, so let's sprinkle water on this little misdirection.

On the evening of the third day.

The float ship used by the Black Rope Mountain Fortress to escort prisoners has finally arrived near the ruins of the Dragon Farm.

This time, after receiving Xiuyi's magical message, Hesuo Mountain urgently sent two field enforcers to take in the prisoners of the Worship Dragon Sect.

The names of the two enforcers were Dave and Macbeth, and they were both fourth-order mages who had served in Mount Hesso for several years and had a lot of experience.

It is worth mentioning.

Macbeth actually knew Rhaeggar, and the two chatted for more than ten minutes at a dinner party held by Archmage Ronan a few years ago, although they didn't talk about the old for too long after this meeting, but with this relationship, the two sides also trusted more, and the handover was very harmonious.

Macbeth told Rhaegar that according to the normal process, prisoners who were taken to Hessoshan needed to be given the full bounty after the trial, and that only half of it would be paid when it was handed over;

But this time, Xiu Yi deliberately emphasized the bravery and contribution of the group in the magic message, so Heisuo Mountain also made a special approval and directly asked them to send the prize money.

So far.

Matthew and his party received a hefty bounty.

Dave and Macbeth also got their wish and harvested a group of important criminals.

Both sides rejoiced.

However, in order not to delay the work, the two sides did not greet each other for too long.

Ten minutes after putting everyone on board.

The floating boat started again, and during this time Hugh Yi followed and boarded the ship, and he said goodbye to Matthew and the others by the side of the ship, saying that he had to go to Hesuo Mountain to report on his work because of his work.

Matthew smiled and saw off Huichi and the float boat.

Until the dark shadow dissipated at the end of the desert.

The smile on his face faded.

"Are they all marked?"

Matthew asked Lee Weiqi.

Li Weiqi nodded solemnly:

"It's marked, the ship is confirmed to be the ship of Hesuo Mountain, and the people are also from the Seven Holy Alliance."

Matthew's face was also a little complicated when he heard this.

He turned his back to the sunset and sighed softly:

"At most tonight, the truth about why Blinken suddenly disappeared should be revealed."

"I hope I'm overthinking."

Night.

By a campfire near the tower.

Lee Weiqi hurriedly appeared in front of Matthew again.

Don't wait for him to speak.

Matthew nodded to indicate that he already knew everything.

data bar.

……

"Hint: The 'Necromancer Potter' and 'Drakeblood Warrior Cumbo Totra' you marked are dead!"

……

"I'm afraid it won't be long before the news of the wreck of the Black Rope Mountain float ship or the crash of a dragon will reach our ears."

Matthew smiled helplessly at Li Weiqi.

"This world is really complicated and cruel."

Lee's expression didn't change much.

He sat down beside Matthew and pointlessly stabbed the bonfire with a twig:

"So, the reason why Blinken resolutely abandoned the Worship of the Dragons is clear."

"He just wants to live."

Matthew nodded slightly:

"At first, I couldn't figure it out, Blinken was still aggressive when I negotiated, and I couldn't see anyone again after the negotiation."

"Now that I think about it, in the process of that negotiation, he had already seriously misjudged my identity, he saw Hugh Yi beside me, and heard that I had a relationship with the Seven Saints Alliance, and panicked, he thought that I was the first step for some big man in the alliance to test him, and next, what greeted him was the fate of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots."

"The reason why I haven't thought of this for a long time is probably because I have a trace of fantasy about the Seven Saints Alliance in my heart."

"The alliance has allowed the development of the Dragon Worship Sect to be unstopped for so many years, and I'm afraid internal resistance is a major reason."

"And Hugh said that he was sent by the alliance to spy on Blinken, but the fact is surveillance or cooperation is probably only known to him."

"After all, he guided us to fight Blinken to the death from beginning to end."

"The alliance has always only given out half of the bounties, and Dave and Macbeth are so enthusiastic this time just to gag our mouths, after all, I have Ronan's Patronus on me, and Rhaegar and you are also present, so they don't dare to have bad intentions."

"The Dragon Breeding Farm has been wiped out by us, and the Dragon Worshippers are fleeing to death, and even the boss Blinken is like a water dog."

"In a few days, people will start cheering and celebrating, and there will be one less great scourge on earth."

"It's just that who would have thought that Blinken, the notorious and everybody-shouted No. 3 priest of the Dragon Worship Sect, is most likely the black glove of a big man in the alliance?"

"How much of the Dragon Mountain Ash and other forbidden materials that Blinken has collected on a large scale have been used by himself, and how many have been handed over to the giant beasts hiding in the shadows in the Seven Holy Alliance?"

"I don't know......"

"I don't know."

The light of the hunting fire reflected on Matthew's face.

His expression was a little sad, a little helpless, and more of a wisp of anger.

……

I can't finish writing, I really can't finish writing, and the next chapter will sort out the ins and outs of the plot, kowtow.

(End of chapter)
