0146 Gusyas Vampire Owl

Gusyasdesen, Toraksh swamp sea, withered hills, cold iron ore road.

These are the four important areas distributed in this Underground World Realm, although Jia Lan has not personally surveyed them, but through the description of Elder Bloodmane, he has a general understanding of the situation in these four areas.

There is not much to say about the swampy sea and the withered hills, one is a mud zone in a large hollow underground, and the other is a swampy area connected to the "Torak Wet Marsh" in Dagon County outside.

The cold iron ore road is the underground ore vein that has been excavated since the Bailong Sect began to build a temple in this underground world, and the only thing that is special is that this mining road that has been excavated like a spider web extends in all directions, what is produced is not ordinary iron ore, but a very rare secret metal, cold iron!

Weapons forged by cold iron are extremely sharp, with a certain amount of cold damage, and excellent toughness, and although they are not as precious as adamantite gold and mythril among the various arcane metals, they are enough to be comparable to arcane metals such as scorched iron.

Although the cold iron vein is rare, it is not uncommon, and it can occasionally be found in some mines with a depth of more than 500 meters, but this cold metal hidden deep in the earth's veins is very peculiar, and ordinary flames cannot melt it at all, and can only be refined in small quantities through some low-temperature forging methods mastered in alchemical laboratories.

As with all arcane metals, conventional smelting and forging methods do not work on them, and can even destroy their materials, requiring the use of esoteric techniques or arcane methods to process them, which further limits their production.

And in this underground realm. However, it contains an astonishing reserve of cold iron ore veins, and the dwarves near the ground happen to be master craftsmen who handle metal. This can't be regarded as a surprise for Jialan.

When she was in the main hall of the rat cage, Jialan noticed that the metal cage there was completely made of pure cold iron, and now that she thinks about it, nine times out of ten it is the craftsmanship of the dwarf ancestors of the Ujia tribe who participated in the construction of the temple of the Dragon Worship Sect.

After arriving in Bloodmane Village, Jialan found the armor worn by the dwarves and the hammers they used. Even the iron pickaxes and iron drills in their hands are all made of cold iron, which is known to the outside world. Gotta go crazy!

In fact, the more you add Cold Iron to your weapon, the stronger the "Freezing Damage" effect you get, but because of the soft texture of Pure Cold Iron. It is not suitable for making slashing weapons.

And the natural sharpness of cold iron. It is good to use piercing weapons such as arrows to make arrows, but you must know that the value of cold iron is equal to that of equal weight of gold, and who is willing to fight with arrows of equal weight of gold?

The dwarves are natural masters of forgery, and their knowledge of the properties of metal is almost instinctive, as evidenced by the weapons and equipment they use.

Although their sledgehammers and rough armor may seem bulky, they are just right for the powerful dwarves, and the cold armor will not only protect them from the heat. Can stay in front of the stove for long periods of time to work, and the sledgehammer serves as a weapon for blunt damage. It also avoids the weakness of a softer texture.

Adding one-tenth of a portion of cold iron to a weapon is enough to raise the quality of the weapon to a sophisticated level, but it is too extravagant and wasteful to be used to build a rat cage here!

Jialan couldn't help but sigh, 8 million gold taran bought the ownership of Doom Fort, it was too cost-effective, just the cold iron ore produced was worth the ticket price, and the cold iron was in the hands of Jialan, the caster, and its role was not only in the hands of blacksmiths, it could only be used to make weapons and equipment......

“...... You're saying that the central strip of the four regions leads to the lower subterranean forests?"

Elder Bloodmane told Jia Lan a piece of news that surprised him, he originally thought that this was the lowest level of this underground world, but he didn't expect that in the central area of the four major regions, there was a passage to the depths, and if this continued, it was estimated that they would be able to directly enter the range of the dark region!

Elder Bloodmane nodded, "Yes, actually, the woodland we are in is just a small piece of woodland derived from the real 'Gusyas Forest' in the lower layer."

Jia Lan was speechless for a while, according to Elder Bloodmane, the "Dusk Ramp" near the central area was the only way to enter the lower level, and in other directions, there were cliffs hundreds of meters deep!

The largest clan of the Uga Nearland Dwarves, Blazingmane Village, was built at the top of the Dusk Ramp and built a checkpoint to prevent dangerous creatures from invading the upper level of the Guth Forest.

"Dangerous creatures?"

Hearing the dangerous creature, Jialan became serious: "What's down there?"

Elder Bloodmane looked at Jialan with some astonishment, as if he was wondering how Jialan, the "Sage" of the Dragon Worship Sect, could be ignorant of the situation in the Holy Land, but he still explained: "Dragon!

Jialan gasped, the ranch where dragons were raised?Is a dragon a creature that can be domesticated?

But soon, Jialan reacted, in the lingua franca of the former civilization Kovalé, "dragon" is a specific homophone polysemetic word, through the difference of syllables, suffixes, object predicate quantifiers, can be changed to "true dragon, wurm, dragon-like, pseudo-dragon, dragon descendant, dragon beast" and so on.

In the underground dwarf language, "dragon" is a noun that refers only to a certain kind of "dragon" type of creature, due to the difference of the times and the change of context, Jialan was unable to distinguish which type of dragon the "dragon" mentioned by Elder Bloodmane for a while!

The "dragons" that Jialan knows are not the same as the "dragons" described in some folk adventure novels, and the vast majority of the "dragons" that appear in front of ordinary people are not real "dragons".

And the story of the heroic knight in the story who bravely went into the dragon's den to rescue the princess is even more nonsense, the real dragon, even the weakest dragon species, is not an existence that can be resisted by manpower, and he went to rescue the princess single-handedly?

But in this relic of the Dragon Worship Sect, Jia Lan was not so sure, who knew if those ancient Dragon Worship Sect disciples in the Dao had any secret means to be able to communicate with the dragons.

Of course, Jialan can be sure that in the so-called "Dragon Ranch", there will definitely not be any "real dragons" that are stocked, because the proud true dragons cannot be domesticated, not even a powerful dragon species, and the weakest dragon species cannot be stopped by hundreds of dwarves.

Moreover, according to Elder Bloodmane, there are not one or two dragons in the dragon ranch, but a huge number of "dragon groups", as far as Jialan knows, dragons are solitary creatures, and they need a huge territory as hunting grounds, even if two dragons of the same kind meet together, it is very likely that there will be a battle, not to mention the "group".

No matter how large the area of the ancient Yas Dessen is, it is less than the territory of a dragon, and in this barren underground, what can feed the herds of dragons? Do you think dragons eat grass?

"At present, there are about a dozen varieties of dragons in the lower layer of the Gusias Forest, but the number is not large, and the largest group is only a dozen...... The Blazing Mane Clan guards the dim light ramp, not mainly to defend against the dragon group, there is a 'defense dragon spirit light array' on the ramp, and the dragon group does not dare to forcibly break into the ramp. ”

Elder Bloodmane explained: "What the Flame Mane Clan is defending is mainly the 'Gusyas Vampire Owl Tree' in the lower layer of the Gusyas Forest, and the 'Withered Thorn Treeman' derived from it! In addition, there are some strange animals and plants in the lower layer of the Gusyas Forest, once they invade the upper layer, it will directly threaten our living environment!"

"'Gusyath Vampire Owl'?" 'Blighted Thorn Treeman'?"

Jialan's face was ugly, he hadn't heard of these two terms, but he had learned about the "owl wood", this carnivorous plant, but the existence of the so-called 'Tree of Death', there was such a tree in that forest, it was almost certain that there would be no life in this forest.

The most terrifying thing is that it can absorb the intelligent creatures that it has attracted and devoured with its seductive/seductive scents and psychedelic sounds, suck them into its branches, transform them into a part of itself, and then control these woody puppets to serve and fight for itself!

Of course, this was only the ability of the "Owl Wood" that Jialan knew about the Dao, and this secret plant, which Elder Bloodmane called the "Gusyath Vampire Owl Wood", had obviously mutated, which was completely different from what he knew!

According to Elder Bloodmane, this owl was first planted by the sages of the Dragon Worship Sect thousands of years ago to detain a vampire demon, but as time passed, the vampire demon that was imprisoned in the owl gradually woke up, and instead devoured the owl and became this terrible "vampire owl wood".

Fortunately, the prohibition set by the Dragon Worshippers back then was still in effect, and the vampire owl wood could not leave the sealing place, and could only rely on the wooden puppet that controlled it to try to break free from the seal, which allowed Gusyass Disen to maintain its current state!

However, the situation has become worse and worse, and over the years, those stupid kobolds and goblins have become more and more numerous under the control of vampire owls, so that they dare to hunt dragons for it to feed, making its strength stronger and stronger, and gradually showing signs of breaking free from the seal.

Fortunately, the powerful dragon group wiped out a large number of withered thorn tree people controlled by the vampire owl wood, and the vampire owl wood also preyed on a large number of dragon groups, so that the strength of the two sides maintained a skillful balance, which allowed the four major races in this underground world to survive.
