Chapter 224: Red Dragon Stove
"John, that's not your real name, is it?" said the red dragon, a little suspicious, after all, the name is too bad.
"The name is just a code name. The Helmet Man shook his head a little gloomily, as he had already noticed that several of his teammates had lost their lives. However, he was not silent for long, and quickly stood up: "Lord Ember, we don't know how to thank you for saving your life, if it weren't for you today, we would all be buried here." ”
The red dragon nodded, it had already seen that this John was the strongest among these people, with the strength of the golden peak, so it asked, "Are you the leader of the Halo Mercenary Regiment?"
"It's not. The helmet man shook his head: "Commander, he sacrificed his ...... to cover us"
It turned out that the well-prepared Halo Mercenary Group and a group of more than thirty people entered this barren land immediately after the dome of the Ice Sea of the Dead dissipated, and quickly crossed half of the Ice Sea with their sophisticated equipment and rich experience.
The scattered undead and demonic beasts encountered on the road are not their opponents at all, and the powerful demonic beasts do not bother to hunt them.
If they hadn't encountered the Sin Dragon Kushaal, they would have been able to reach the position of the Undead Emperor without any problems, but how could the Wind Dragon, who had already made the Ice Sea of the Dead his territory, let them be presumptuous?
In the face of the sudden terrifying ice storm, the people of the Halo Mercenary Group even became a luxury hope to escape. The fine armor that would not leave even scratches with ordinary attacks was as fragile as a baby in the face of a raging ice storm. I didn't even see the shadow of the wind dragon, and the people who were swept into the ice storm were shattered to pieces in an instant!
The leader of the platinum-level Halo Mercenary Regiment stood up heroically, and burst out with the strength of his whole body to temporarily block the sweep of the ice storm, allowing the rest of the group members to split into two groups to escape.
But no matter how strong a person's strength is, it can't be compared to nature, and the leader of the Halo Mercenary Regiment didn't hold on for even a minute, and he was bitten by the sin dragon that burst out of the ice storm with all his energy, and was swallowed alive!
This scene was only seen by John, who ran at the end, and then saw the raging ice storm turn around and chase after another team of mercenaries, and the people there were basically more than lucky.
After running for a long time, the disoriented group found a cave and hid in it without much thought.
After everyone took a breath, they counted and found that they and the others were extremely unlucky and did not have any supplies!
In order to travel lightly during the operation, most of the supplies of the mercenary group were divided into six elite members, and each person's reserves were enough for the whole group to survive in the ice sea for at least a month. And now two of the remaining members of the team, including John, have storage items, but John's space bag was torn by the ice storm, and the other person's hand wearing the space ring was cut off!
The two fire mages in the regiment were also killed, and even the most resilient warriors in the midst of hunger and cold would collapse.
More than a dozen people who could not see any hope snuggled together in the last despair and fell into a deep sleep......
In the end, nine people survived with the help of the red dragon, who happened to be here too, and only those who were particularly desperate and pessimistic at the last moment died.
"Man, never give up hope at any time, and never despair no matter what. Because it could be a holy angel or a fire-breathing dragon who will save you at the last moment. ”——
......
"The monster that can control the Ice Storm is actually a sin dragon, and I was sent here to capture it this time. But for now, I'm no match for it. The red dragon half-truthfully explained to the mercenary.
John, who couldn't see the expression, nodded, and didn't bother to ask about the affairs of the dragon clan, but said, "Lord Ember, I still feel very cold, can I lean on your body?"
For this presumptuous request, Honglong thought about it and agreed, after all, this is not an outrageous request, and it doesn't hurt to agree for the sake of being so polite.
Of course, this does not mean that the red dragon is now relaxed, because he is now lying on his stomach, and as long as the enemy is not attacking from the underground, it is impossible to attack his own vital point!
After receiving permission, the helmet man took two steps back and gently leaned on the red dragon's thigh, the large temperature difference made him shiver. Ember guessed that he was now surprised by his somewhat scorching body temperature, thanks to the scarf around his neck right now.
At this time, another mercenary woke up slowly, she opened her eyes and saw the figure of the helmet man and the red background behind him in a daze, so she asked weakly, "...... Deputy Commander: Are we in the kingdom of the gods? It's so warm......"
"No, Cortana, we're not dead, we've been saved by Lord Ember, the guardian dragon!" explained John, who was leaning on the dragon's lap.
......
Knowing that Xiaolan went out to scout again, confirmed that Kushar was not nearby, and came back to report that Ember had lit a bonfire, the nine mercenaries realized that it was a bit inappropriate to use the life-saving dragon as a stove, and then reluctantly disengaged from the red dragon.
"Rest in peace, may there be no more cold in the world over there. John flattened the body of his sacrificial teammate, then searched his suicide note from his personal pocket and carefully put it away.
After a moment of silence, the mercenaries expressed their joy at surviving and expressed their highest gratitude to the red dragon.
The red dragon who stood up looked down at them and said, "I prefer to be grateful in substance. ”
The mercenaries immediately agreed: "Yes, yes, yes......", and they all said that they would definitely make up a reward that satisfied the red dragon when they returned.
The premise is that they can successfully return to the mainland.
Ember took out enough food and combustibles to give to the mercenaries, and gave them a gadget he named a lighter that he made in his spare time.
The lighter contains the liquid in the red dragon's own fire sac, and when used, it only needs to press the button on it to spew flames from it. Ember was going to be sold on the mainland after he was proficient in the crafting, so he sent them a few to try first. Although there are similar things on the market now, they are not as durable as the flammable liquid produced by the Red Dragon!
Seeing that they were almost ready, Ember was about to leave, when one of the mercenaries hesitated and said, "Yu ...... Lord Ember, I wonder if I can trouble you a little more and personally send us out of the ice sea?"
The red dragon glanced at him: "No, I have been targeted by the sin dragon now, and I will not be able to protect you if you are attacked in the process of leaving." ”
The mercenary bowed his head in shame at the disdainful gaze of his teammates.
After meeting everyone at Cotter City, Ember flicked his tail and strode away. Everyone watched the red dragon leave with gratitude, and then continued to bow their heads and pack their luggage.
A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in John's mind after packing the backpack, and he stood up and looked in the direction where the red dragon had left: The entrance to the cave is so small, how did Lord Ember get in?
"I'll go to the front and have a look. He said something to his teammates and ran forward, the others wondering but not asking much.
When John saw that the hole had been widened enough for the red dragon to enter, he shrugged his shoulders and laughed to himself, "I really need to get rid of this problem." ”
