It's not that there are no cloud rays that are controlled by people, but most of them steal cloud ray eggs like them, and they have assisted in various magical domestication since they were young, and the success rate is unusually low, which is not something that ordinary forces can afford.

After all, the appetite of an adult cloud ray is quite amazing, and it is normal to eat three or five cows at a meal.

Although it is an omnivorous animal, it also eats all kinds of plants and grains, but it cannot stand up to the large amount.

If you want to raise a cloud ray to adulthood, the cost of it is absolutely staggering.

Like the one in front of me, who directly cuts an adult cloud ray, let alone see, I haven't even heard of it.

Now they finally understand why the other party is willing to pay a high price to buy the news of cloud rays, this is to master the taming method, you can start in batches.

Roar!

Seeing the trio of thieves, the cloud ray let out a unique wind roar as if it had seen an enemy, and boulders flew up from the ground.

"Calm down, calm down, they're sending your child back." Gavin reassured, "What are you waiting for? Don't hurry up and take out the cloud ray eggs! ”

"Here?" The trio of thieves looked puzzled.

"I'll let you let it go, and you can just let it go, and it won't be fine." Gavin nodded firmly.

"Okay." It was still the half-elf thief who took the lead, and a giant egg covered with cloud-like patterns and spots came out of it, and something strange appeared.

The cloud ray egg did not appear to be in free fall, and just floated directly in mid-air.

"What's going on?"

"Cloud ray eggs can fly?"

"It's amazing!"

The trio of thieves looked surprised.

"It's not that they can fly, but they float, this is the innate ability of cloud rays, how can they not have eggs? The cloud ray's native plane, the qi element plane, does not have a large land area, so how can they lay eggs? Gavin wasn't surprised by that.

Because the cloud ray is not a native magic beast of the material plane, the air element plane is its hometown, and it is believed that there are more of them there.

But finding them there is much more difficult than the material plane.

Because that world is an endless sky, there are only countless island-like landmasses of different sizes floating there, there is no difference between up and down, front and back, left and right, and most of the creatures live an endless migratory life.

When a non-flying creature gets there, it's a disaster, and although it doesn't fall (because there is no gravitational pull of the earth), it's very difficult to move, and the only way to do it is to swim, well, to the air.

If you want to find a cloud ray there, purely by luck, you may be able to hit it in the next second, and you may not be able to touch it in your lifetime.

"I see, I've been taught, and it seems that my homework has not been done at home." The half-elf thief sincerely thanked him.

As he spoke, the second cloud ray egg was also released from his life-sustaining dimensional bag, and the phase spider silk coil that was used as the connecting dimensional bag slowly faded, and finally turned into nothingness and disappeared completely, representing that this life-sustaining dimension had disappeared.

In this matter, the half-elf thieves are not lying, and the life-sustaining dimensional bag in their hands is disposable.

There is also that kind of permanent life-sustaining dimensional bag, but the cost of the two is definitely not at the same level, this kind of disposable consumables, the main one is cheaper.

The human female thief followed, releasing a third cloud ray egg.

The halfling thief didn't act for a long time, and his palm-sized face was twisted into a ball, all with a look of pain.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The cloud ray had already floated to the distance of its mind manipulation ability, and the three cloud ray eggs floating in the air flew towards it, but the roar was more rapid and angry, because there were not enough of them.

Gavin hadn't spoken yet, and the half-elf thief was in a hurry, and reminded repeatedly: "Besca, don't do stupid things, you want to make money, there will be opportunities in the future, but not now." ”

He is very aware of the problems of his companion, he loves money like life, and since he was a child, he has planted more than one heel in this matter, but he still can't change it.

I don't know if the halfling thief figured it out on his own, or if the half-elf thief's urging had an effect, or if he was poor in skills, he couldn't escape at all.

Beska finally chose to release the two cloud ray eggs in her hand, but there were words in her mouth, which were obviously not good words.

Seeing that Gavin's gaze at the halfling thief became a little deep, containing a certain deep meaning, the half-elf thief involuntarily opened his mouth to defend his companion: "Although Besca has a bit of a bad habit in this regard, he is not a bad person, and I promise that he will not cause any trouble to adults in this regard." ”

"Greed is not terrible, what is terrible is greed that cannot distinguish the situation." Gavin said meaningfully, "As an adventurer, especially a thief who walks on a tightrope, the slightest mistake can turn this vice into a disaster, dragging you all into the abyss from which you will never recover, and not everyone is as good a talker as I am. ”

He is speaking from experience, in his previous life, he suffered a big loss at the hands of such teammates, and almost perished, since then, he has always been respectful of such people.

At least not to venture with them, especially in dungeons or treasure spots, where wealth is often tied to danger.

Uncontrollable greed is the way to death.

"I'll discipline him." The half-elf thief's promise is somewhat feeble, and this disposition is the most difficult to change.

If I could have done it, I would have done it a long time ago, and I wouldn't have waited until now.

"It's good to do it yourself." Gavin just warned the other party, and then didn't say more, and the other party was not his subordinate, and he didn't even agree to the hiring, that is, he had a love for the half-elf thief, and didn't want him to make a big mistake.

But judging from the series of performances just now, they are not a simple cooperative relationship, there are still deep bonds between each other, it is likely that they grew up together, and the half-elf thief cannot give up on him because of the shortcomings of the other party.

Unless an irreparable heel is planted on it, it is possible to part ways.

After all the cloud ray eggs were recovered, the cloud ray gradually calmed down.

Five eggs were placed on his back in a star, apparently prepared to carry them with him.

"Let's go."

Gavin ordered the rays to float in the air, and first went to the ray's lair to see if there were any other treasures here.

Unfortunately, the cloud rays don't have the dragon's penchant for collecting treasures, and the five cloud ray eggs are the only valuable thing in the nest, and the rest are not even tattered.

This situation is also beneficial, at least no one will go specifically to find the stubble of cloud rays for the sake of treasure wealth.

After leaving the Giant Running Mountains, Gavin did not return directly to Colossus City with the cloud rays and the Wyvern group, but deflected slightly and killed directly to the center of the Giant Plains.

Looking down from above, both Gavin and Shanoba have long been accustomed to it, but for the thief trio, it is a new experience, and even the halfling thief can't care about the pain of losing the treasure, lying on the edge of the cloud ray and looking down.

They only felt that their field of vision was incomparably vast, as if half of the giant plain was under them, and both the cattle and the figures had become not much bigger than the ants.

"Why are there so many people down there? So lively? ”

The halfling thief said as he pulled out a retractable monocular from his portable backpack and leaned on the cloud ray's back to look down.

"Goblins, trolls, orcs, gnolls...... Good guys, this is a big gathering of monsters, and the monsters of the entire Giant Plains are gathered here. ”

"I'll see, I'll see, I'll see......" The human female thief snatched the copper monoculars from the halfling's hand and observed the situation below, "Really, hey, they seem to be converging in one direction, what's going on?" Could it be that the monster tribes on the Giant Plains want to unite? ”

"It's not a coalition, it's that they're holding a general assembly of all races, preparing to reach a truce with Bloodgit City." Gavin was more interested in the monoculars that the two snatched from each other than the Assembly of All Races, and asked the half-elf thief, "Wouldn't this be made by you yourself?" ”

"I'd love to say yes, but I can't do it with a clear conscience, although this thing is made by ourselves, it is an imitation at best, and the original version is from those gnomes, called Eagle Glasses." The half-elf thief replied truthfully.

"Who's from whom?" Gavin wasn't interested in who exactly invented it, the key was whether it could be made, preferably in bulk.

There is a very crucial problem in high-altitude warfare, that is, the field of vision, especially high-altitude bombing, cannot be indiscriminately bombed without seeing the target clearly.

In fact, the most suitable equipment is not a telescope.

It's a piece of equipment that Gavin bought very early on - dragon vision glasses.

These magic glasses, which mimic the vision of a giant dragon, can easily see targets from kilometers away, even clearer than an eightfold mirror, and can even zoom in and out.

But this is not a magic item made by conventional magic, most mages don't know how to make it, although Gavin has already asked several mages to help analyze and try to imitate the production, so far there is no follow-up, but I'm afraid it's not an easy thing to do.

The second is the sharp ear technique and the eagle eye technique, which is a three-ring spell, after casting, it can form an invisible induction force field, and the caster can see or hear things there as if he was there, even if the two sides are separated by many obstacles, as long as it is within the effective range of the spell, it can be cast, once cast, the invisible induction force field will not be able to move, and can only observe the surrounding situation.

On top of that, the casting distance of this spell is a bit too close, only a few hundred meters, which is definitely enough for adventure, but not enough for air combat.

You have to find a way to improve it further, or make it into a corresponding magical equipment, like a telescope.

The research had not yet been put into action, and the normal goggles appeared in front of Gavin first.

This thing is not difficult to make, as long as there is clear and transparent glass or crystal, and with a few ingenious craftsmen, it can be easily polished and made.

Even if the first two are successfully developed, it is estimated that the mainstream will have to be a telescope, after all, it has the advantage of low price and convenient large-scale installation.

"It's Besca's masterpiece, and he developed our gliding suit." The Half-Elf Thief tried to salvage the Halfling Thief's impression, "He is a typical miscast, with a dwarf soul in his body, and he is very talented in this area, and there are many subtle things that he can imitate with just one look." ”

"If he is really as talented as you say, he should stay in the research and manufacturing room instead of running around the world with you, which is good for him and for you." Gavin's impression of the halfling thief did pick up a bit.

When the gods close a door for a man, it is possible to open a window for him.

Halfling thieves do have fatal flaws, but on the other hand, they have their own strengths and advantages, depending on how to play to their strengths and avoid weaknesses.

"That's what we originally planned, and when this mission is over, we'll stop and go to the City of Faith, relying on Besca's craftsmanship to open our own grocery store, which is our dream since childhood, but it's always stranded for various reasons and accidents, and this time it's the same." The half-elf thief's face was full of helplessness.

Nine times out of ten, life is unsatisfactory, and whenever they think that the peak is turning, there must be a pit waiting for them in front of them, and it has been pushing them on the road of adventure.

"If your companions really prove that they have the ability to do this, I think we will have a new point of cooperation, and then it will not be as simple as opening a grocery store, but directly opening various factories." Gavin is now seeing a business opportunity and not letting it go.

Although Feron has a large industry, most of them are in a state of enlightenment, and more of them are production workshops, mainly family-oriented.

Large-scale industrial production is indispensable for the further prosperity of commerce and trade.

"This is easy to do, I will ask Beska to make a list of various equipment and items that he can make or imitate to the adults, and the adults will see what they are interested in, and we will talk about it before it is too late." For this matter, the half-elf thief will naturally not refuse, after all, there is no risk, even if he is deceived, it is nothing more than the craftsmanship means of paying some ordinary items.

"A cooperative factory is a cooperative factory, and my previous offer of employment is still in effect, but I suggest that Mr. Besca be removed from the adventure team and concentrate on what he does best."

"I'm sorry, I don't have a way to give you an accurate answer right now, we need to discuss it again." The Half-Elf Thieves were still jealous of this.

One is that the money is a little too easy to make.

The second is that his understanding of this big man is really limited, limited to hearsay, and he is afraid that he will accidentally fall into the bottomless pit and never be able to climb up again.

Which of those big people doesn't regard small people like them as mustard?

Use it up and throw it away.

And this conqueror, bigger and more famous than all the great men he had ever seen.

Under normal circumstances, there is no chance to climb high.

"You have time, after you figure it out, just come to me." Gavin no longer cares about the half-elf thief's thoughts, but focuses his attention on the assembly of all nations below.

It is true that he lost all the power to deal with this matter to Bloodclaw, it does not mean that he does not pay attention to it at all, especially the main members of the Giant Plains, which are their main competitors in the Giant Plains in the future.

In fact, both sides know that sooner or later there will be a war between them, but not now.

Neither side is ready for this and is buying time for themselves.

"Bloodclaw City Lord, don't force it too much, we have already given up the fattest pasture, and now you even want our tribe to pay tribute, one animal per person every year, and the number of huge livestock will account for one-tenth, even if it is robbed, it is not so fast, do you still want our tribe to live?"

"There is still a way for ordinary livestock to think of, but there is no way to make huge livestock, you Blood Gorge City, the looting of giant livestock in the plains during this time, and the accumulation of the past hundred years are about to be robbed by you, where can we find so many giant livestock?"

"This condition is too harsh, you don't have the sincerity of peace talks at all, do you really think that the entire Giant Plain belongs to you? All the tribes of the entire Giant Plains, united regardless of race, have a population at least ten times that of yours, and if we are in a hurry, we will overwhelm you with crowds. ”

"If you had the ability, you would have done it a long time ago, and you won't wait until now, the conditions we offered are very sincere, if you force us to take it ourselves, I'm afraid it won't be this amount, without you, I believe that the rest of the people will be very willing to help you take care of the ranch."

"You don't want to divide us, we are one now, regardless of race."

"If you want to fight, you want to fight, you want livestock, and you don't have one."

"We will never accept your extortion again."

"Since it is a peace talk, we both have to show the least sincerity, and we can't make repeated concessions, and you Blood Gorge City will not give in a single step."

The progress of the 10,000-person conference in the Giant Plains was not smooth.

Where there is oppression, there will be resistance.

This applies not only to sapient creatures, but also to monsters.

In the past period of time, the goblins led by Bloodclaw have pressed the monster tribes on the Giant Plains too hard, and they have shown a joint situation, just like the Eight-City Alliance on the Dragon Coast, they are forming their own tribal alliance.

Led by them was a group of orc tribes, all of whom were orc giants over four and a half meters tall, and among these barbarian tribes, they had a huge advantage in size and often gained dominance.

Their innate ability to regenerate with a large number of regeneration gems, coupled with the higher strength and wisdom bestowed by the Giant's Plains, has made their troll army unstoppable in the Giant's Plains, and all tribes have to pay tribute to them to make them stronger.

It's just that these trolls have the same legendary laziness as all trolls, and rarely take the initiative to attack, and many more remote tribes directly ignore their existence.

Today's resumption of the double watch, the old rules, the second watch is still one o'clock in the afternoon!

Recently, there is a new feature, if you have any pictures you want to see, you can leave a message, I will find it as much as possible!
