Chapter Ninety-Five: Abundant Materials
This situation made Leo feel very strange. Because from what you know from books, corrupting the creature of jackals is cruel and bloodthirsty, not only for the enemy, but also for themselves, as long as there is a battle, it is a situation of endless death.
But now, they are running away, which is a bit unreasonable.
"Could it be that there is something in there that they can rely on?" Leo naturally speculated, and at the same time said to the three people around him: "Go in and have a look, but I think there may be some unexpected dangers inside, let's be more careful." ”
Looking at the deep and dark cave, Leia nodded solemnly: "I'll go to the front, and you try not to expose it." ”
With that, she recited the incantation, and a shield of energy that glowed white appeared, completely obscuring the front of her.
Soon, several people advanced dozens of meters, and the smell of fishy odor became stronger and stronger.
The next moment, a piercing howl came, and a huge figure slowly emerged against the light of the energy shield.
"Demon Blood Jackal! It's a Demon Blood Jackal!" shouted Leia at the front.
Leo had also seen the demon-blooded jackal in front of him, which was much larger than an ordinary jackal, and he felt a headache for a while.
Demon-blooded jackals are relatively rare magical creatures, as they are not born naturally, but evolved from ordinary corrosive jackals. Only those corrupted jackals who live the longest, most cunning, and most bloodthirsty have the potential to evolve into demon-blooded jackals. And once they evolve successfully, their life and power will also be greatly increased.
As for the demon blood jackal's demon blood, it is a very excellent neutralizing agent, which can be blended with different pH values according to different situations, and it is highly valuable.
And soon Leo discovers that there is a chain the thickness of a child's arm around the neck of the demon-blood jackal, precisely because of the existence of the chain. The terrible creature couldn't get out of the cave. And the ordinary corrosive jackals obviously rely on it, and they all honestly crawl aside.
Seaberton suddenly shouted, "Over there, my God, my God, it's the same as my magic, we're going to get rich!"
Leo followed his gaze and suddenly saw that there were seven or eight sealed magic boxes stacked behind the Demon Blood Jackal.
"No wonder it's locked here, it turns out to be guarding a large supply point. Leia said thoughtfully, and then asked, "Leo, what are we going to do now?"
Leo said bitterly: "I think with our current strength. It's probably not that easy to kill the demon-blooded jackal. ”
Sanders immediately nodded and agreed: "It's definitely not easy, that guy belongs to high-level magical creatures." ”
As he spoke, he recited a spell and cast a standard "Magic Missile".
The missile, which was purely made of magical energy, flew straight out, hitting the demon-blooded jackal accurately. However, the magic missile that could easily shatter bones hit the demon-blooded jackal, but it didn't even damage its fur in the slightest.
"Look...... Even if it's level 4 magic, it probably won't have any effect under its resistance. Sanders said with a sad face.
Seeing that the three of them were helpless. Seaberton smiled: "What are you going to do with it, we just need to get the supplies, you look at me." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he also recited the incantation. It's not an attack spell, though, it's an invisibility spell.
A second later, Sieburdon's entirety was gone, but of course it was only visually. In the perception of spiritual power, he did not change at all.
Leo immediately guessed what Seaberton was trying to do, but he didn't wait to stop him. The guy was already taking a step towards the demon-blooded jackal.
The distance was quickly narrowed, and in the blink of an eye, it was within ten meters.
And at this moment, the demon-blooded jackal suddenly opened its mouth and spewed out a puff of dark brown liquid, and the target was Sibberton in the invisible state.
Because it was so close, Sieberton had no chance to react. Fortunately, Leia had already been prepared, and as soon as his mental power moved, the open energy shield was transferred to Sieburdon's body, intercepting all the liquid for him.
And as the liquid dripped down, bursts of white smoke rose from the ground, which showed how corrosive it must be.
Seaburon couldn't help but be scared for a while, and hurriedly took a few steps back, quickly returning to the group, and muttered, "Why can it see my invisibility technique?
"Because in this environment, its eyes may have deteriorated, but its sense of smell and hearing is much sharper, and it is difficult not to detect you. Leo explained.
Seaberton stuck out his tongue, "So what are we going to do now? ”
Leo thought about it carefully and analyzed: "Now we only have two ways, the first is to fight it hard and see if we can kill it." ”
Leia shook her head and said, "This is definitely unrealistic, you better talk about the second one." ”
Leo smiled and said, "Second, help it break the chains, maybe it will leave on its own." ”
"But how is that possible?" Leia frowned, "The chains that can lock it must be quite strong, how can we possibly get it open?"
Leo responded, "It's not completely impossible, it's just a little dangerous. ”
Hearing him say this, Leia suddenly became interested: "What can you do?"
Leo looked at the black metal chain around the neck of the demon-blooded jackal, and said, "In my opinion, there should be an anti-corrosion coating on the chain, which can prevent the demon-blood jackal's saliva from corroding and breaking it. However, if I use fire magic to bombard constantly, it shouldn't be difficult to break the coating, and then I only need to let the demon blood jackal spray it on its own, and the chain may break. ”
"Sounds doable. ”
"But what if that guy breaks free and attacks us?"
"It's really hard to deal with this problem......
The four of them discussed for a long time, but they were still at a loss.
Sanders said anxiously, "Well, if only that guy had some intelligence and could see that we were going to help him open the chains!"
Leia sighed and said, "Although that guy is powerful, he is just a beast, and he acts completely on instinct, so you should not think about this." ”
"Instinct ......" Leo suddenly had some thoughts.
Leia immediately noticed the change in Leo's expression and hurriedly asked, "What have you come up with?"
Leo replied, "There is indeed a way, but it may be risky. ”
"Let's talk about it first. ”
"You probably don't know. I have the blood of the Red Dragon. Leo said lightly.
As soon as the words fell, except for Sanders, who knew something about it, the other two suddenly let out an exclamation.
"What? Red Dragon Blood?"
"What are you kidding?!"
"That's the way it is. Of course, Leo didn't want to dwell on this issue too much, and hurriedly continued: "Since the demon-blooded jackal only relies on instinct, if I stimulate the red dragon bloodline, is it possible to scare it away?"
How could Lea not feel Leo's attitude, and said after a moment of silence: "This is indeed a way, if it is a normal situation, even the most ferocious beast will definitely be suppressed when facing the dragon." But I don't know what the effect of the dragon power you can exude is. Is it more than the Demon Blood Jackal can bear? ”
"Why don't you three quit first, and I'll stay here and try it myself. Leo told him what he had planned.
Leia worried, "Wouldn't it be too dangerous for your own words?"
Leo shook his head: "It's better than staying here with all four of them, and it's best to scare it away, if it doesn't scare it away, I can run away immediately, take it out of the cave, and then you can come in and get something." There are so many magic boxes in front of you, you have to try it. ”
Leia couldn't think of a better way. I could only agree: "Okay, just do as you say." But don't be reluctant, and make sure your own safety is the priority. ”
............
In the blink of an eye, more than ten minutes passed. There was still no movement coming from inside the cave, which made the three people waiting outside start to become anxious.
"Why has it been so long?" said Sanders, eager to rush to the cave to see what Leo was up to.
Leia said comfortingly: "Don't worry, it may be that the chain is very strong." It's not easy to break. ”
"But why do I have a bad premonition?" said Seaburton, grinning, and immediately received two cold glances, which made him quickly close his mouth. Don't dare to talk nonsense anymore.
Another few minutes passed, and just as Sanders was about to take it anymore, a low roar suddenly came from the cave.
"It's ......" Sanders, hiding behind a large tree, poked his head out and looked into the cave.
The next moment, a fishy smell poured out of the cave, followed by a huge jackal.
However, unlike the ferocious and terrifying appearance just now, at this time, the demon-blood jackal was like a frightened rabbit, running desperately with its tail between its legs, while the four surviving corrosive jackals followed it and disappeared into the forest in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this scene, the three of them were overjoyed, and they didn't need anyone to remind them, so they ran to the cave together.
Seeing Leo intact, Sanders finally calmed down and asked, "How did you do that?"
Leo smiled and replied, "Oh, that's a dragon pronunciation, and it will be extra loud under the amplification of magic." I guess that demon-blooded jackal may have suffered from dragons before, but I didn't expect it to be scared like this. ”
Then, naturally, it was time to count the loot.
Eight sealed boxes were stacked on top of each other, indicating that there would be a lot of supplies that were urgently needed at the moment.
When the first sealed box was opened, everyone made a sound of disappointment, because there were still no magic crystals in it, only a thick stack of magic paper.
Leo clapped his hands and said, "It's not bad, we can use it to draw a large number of scrolls, and when we need it, we can stimulate it together, and we will definitely be able to pray for good results." Think about it, if you hit twenty magic missiles in an instant, which guy can reach it?"
The three of them thought of the picture that Leo had said, and they all laughed at the magic missiles flying in the sky, and the atmosphere that had been somewhat reduced was restored again.
Soon, all eight sealing boxes were checked. However, admitting that with the accumulation of quantity, good luck naturally returns.
This time, Team Ravington not only found magic crystals, all kinds of good magic materials, but also obtained a high-quality magic pen. You know, without using a magic pen, it's a world of difference when it comes to drawing magic emblems.
And in the last sealed box, they also found several magical equipment components. According to Leia, a simple combination of these elements and a period of mana recharge can be used to get a good piece of magical equipment. However, what exactly is the function of this magic equipment needs to be further tested.
As for the eight Lordaeron insignes found along with the materials, the total number of insignia at the Rivington School of Magic and Wizardry reached a staggering twenty, a full five ahead of the second place. They didn't know that there were still quite a few teams that hadn't even found a single emblem.
Looking at the number one Ravington name on the map, Leo quipped, "If anyone asks us where we're from, don't mention Ravinton." I don't want to wait until it gets dark to start being hunted. ”
The cheerful Bieberton laughed out loud and said cooperatively: "Hahaha, of course, we are from the Gamore School of Magic from the Kingdom of Ditru, and we have been calculated by the hateful Raventon, if anyone finds their traces, please be sure to tell us!"
After everything was processed, and the things were sorted into the space ring by Leia, Leo stood up and watched around again to make sure that nothing was missing, and then said, "Let's go, let's get out of here." ”
Sanders wondered, "Isn't this place very good? It's a bit smelly, but if you cast a few wind magic, you'll be fine." ”
"No, it's not good here. Leo shook his head firmly, "This cave is so conspicuous that any team that sees it will definitely want to come in and have a look." We have to keep a low profile now and avoid any more contact with any team. ”
"That makes sense, but where are we going next?" asked Leia.
"Get the map out. Leo said to Lea, in fact, it didn't matter if he looked at the map or not, it was already in his head anyway. However, in order to take care of everyone, he pointed his finger at the center of a hilly area on the north shore of the lake.
"Here, with its rolling hills, secluded terrain and commanding heights, I think it would definitely be a great place to have lunch. ”
Seeing this location, Seaberton couldn't help but exclaim: "What a place! I don't want to go there when I see so many mountains, and others must think the same way!" )
