Chapter 458: Split Dragon (Part 1)

"Where is this place?" Barrett asked curiously.

"A small, useless demi-plane," Kris replied, "a colleague of mine used this place as a warehouse to store a large number of earth elementals and thor stone monsters, although the mage later put these The elemental creatures have all been transported away, or have been used up, but maybe some little ones have been forgotten and remain in this half-plane. It doesn't matter, those earth elements won't cause trouble, we don't care about it."

Barrett looked around and found that the small demi-plane in front of him was quite desolate. According to Chris, the area here is about 50 square kilometers. From a distance, you can't understand anything except the gray-black gravel and rocks.

The location where the group of them were located was considered to be a gently undulating plain. There was a huge and simple alchemy formation on the ground. It was left by the mage at the beginning. I heard that it was used to collect the elemental nuclei of earth elements in batches. This simple magic circle cannot be used to refine magic accessories or potions, but some simple collection work can still be done.

There is a bottomless canyon in the distance, and some unknown Gulong Gulong voices faintly came from the depths of the canyon. On the opposite side of the canyon, there are three towering peaks formed by the sky-high boulders.

Such a desolate landscape reminded Barret of the dark realm full of dead silence, but unlike the dark realm, this demiplane contained precious air and sunlight. Warm sunlight streams through the stretchy-looking amber membrane in the sky, turning the space into a landscape painted on yellowed parchment.

The little mage said that such unformed demi-planes are like boats anchored in the harbor, most of which are attached to a complete main plane. In the entire multiverse, there are the most demi-planes near the main material world. Some of these demiplanes arise naturally, while others are created through magic or divine power.

Those half-planes will grow slowly over hundreds or even millions of years, and one or two of them will be extremely lucky to escape the fate of early disintegration, extinction, or being swallowed by other void creatures. It is a large plane with its own unique rules, such as the main material world, the nine hells of Baator, the mechanical realm of clock nirvana, or the Joseph Garden of the heroic realm.

The little mage changed the magic circle on the ground and placed several magic spar stones at key positions. Then he released the corpse of the ancient dragon from the space ring.

The corpse slowly overflowed with thick ice breath and cold mist. Even with the protection of the 'endurance environment' spell applied by the little mage, Barrett still felt a cold that penetrated into his soul. This cold aura continued to spread outward from the magic circle, turning a large area around it into hard frozen soil.

Did I fight this terrifying dragon before and successfully kill it? Even though he knew he did it himself, Barret still had an unreal feeling in his heart.

If you look at it this way, I'm pretty awesome! The barbarian was calm on the surface, but he couldn't help but feel complacent in his heart.

"Ah! Oh my God, this dragon is really white, no, it's really big!" Chef 'Atwood' exclaimed shiveringly, "The size of a red dragon I've seen before is less than three points of its size. One. But that red dragon wasn't yet grown up at the time, and this guy, I dare say it's at least an ancient dragon."

"It's an ancient dragon." The giant beast hunter 'Auston' walked up to the corpse and probed into the scales on its body. "It lived about 3,000... no, about 3,500 years old! Did you really kill this primordial dragon alone?" The monster hunter turned to look at Barrett, "Sorry, I'm not suspicious. You Also a dragon slayer, that's a no-brainer, I can feel it. I'm just curious about how you took it down. Seriously, I'm a big fan of hunting all kinds of big and super-sized creatures, maybe we can Let's talk about each other's experiences."

"Actually, it was seriously injured before it fought me, so it didn't show its true strength." Barrett pointed to the dragon's head, "I'm just lucky. If it wasn't for its early injury , I can only be killed." The barbarian didn't want to talk about the battle process, and some things were not easy to explain.

The monster hunter Oston wisely did not ask any further, but chatted about himself casually, "I killed a green dragon before, but that dragon was just an ordinary adult green dragon, far from yours. Can't compare." He walked over to the white dragon's head, carefully observed the huge scar on the dragon's head, and continued to talk about his own experience.

"The green dragon is hiding in a dense jungle full of poisonous mist and miasma. Because there are no cliffs and caves that dragons like most near the jungle, the green dragon used its own mighty power to destroy many towering giants. The tree was knocked down, and the trunks were piled up one by one to make a huge lair. Some kobolds and goblins in the jungle were enslaved by it, and they were responsible for strengthening the lair for it, as well as some wolves and dire animals. It's also acting as its watchdog."

"It took me almost two years to find out its habits and make all kinds of preparations. I placed seven large traps in the expected battle location, and the deep pit with spikes was the most important of them. A part of it. The deep pit can let the violent bear run freely, but we all know that the weight of the giant dragon is far more than that of the violent bear, so when it falls, it can only fall into it helplessly. "

"Dragon's vitality is very tenacious, even if it sinks in, it will not die immediately. Especially not to be overlooked is that they can fly, you need to prevent it from flapping its wings and flying out after it sinks. Believe me, it will definitely be A disaster." Auston patted the white dragon's wings and said, "There are many ways to restrain the dragon from flying, and my favorite way is to use a large, strong net." The hunter kept using his hands Signed, "This net can't really trap the dragon, but it can effectively entangle its wings and play a certain slowing effect. Next..."

Listening to Auston's remarks, Barrett couldn't help but admire it. Different from the frontal and rigid fighting methods he used, Auston's dragon-slaying methods are intertwined, from the judgment of the battlefield, to the selection of dragon bait, to the methods of lure and provocation, as well as various large-scale traps. The layout and triggering are extremely intelligent. Barrett felt that if he were the green dragon, he would have no choice but to die.

"We all know about you, don't show off any more, and get down to business!" said the tailor 'Pupato'. He seems to have a good relationship with the giant beast hunter, so the way he speaks is very rude.

"Don't worry, let me see where to start first," Auston said. "And our new dragon slayer, Barrett, doesn't know yet. I mainly tell him. Dragon slayer. There's always that special, heart-to-heart feeling in between, that you laymen don't understand." He winked at Barrett.

Although the way the middle-aged man blinked his eyes made the barbarian feel a little disgusted, it was undeniable that the other party was right and he did feel a strange quality in Auston, "Why is this happening?"

"It's the dragon's curse," Auston said.

"Curse?" Barrett frowned.

"Don't worry, this is just a statement, not really a terrible curse." The monster hunter explained, "You can also understand it as a kind of dye, when you kill a real dragon, it is inevitable. will be stained with this dye. It can't be washed, it can't be removed, and it will gradually deepen as you kill more dragons. Other people can't perceive this dye, only those who also have the dye to feel each other.”

"What's the use?" The barbarian asked again ~lightnovelpub.net~ It's useless to you and me, but to the dragons, it does have a little use. Some say the so-called 'dragon curse' is some kind of defense mechanism for powerful creatures like dragons. If you kill a white dragon, all the other white dragons will smell the curse and be wary of you. "Auston looked at the dragon's pierced eyes with a slightly stunned look on his face.

After observing the Primordial White Dragon for a while, the beast hunter Oston looked at Baritt and then at the little mage, "Your Excellency Mage Kris, shall we start?"

"I can do it at any time. You can preside over it." The little mage said, "We will all cooperate with you."

Kris activated the alchemy formation at Auston's request, and then the rock giant 'Luboric' walked up silently with a long sword about the size of Barrett.

The long sword is like an ordinary one-handed sword in the hands of the rock giant, and it does not look huge at all. He followed Auston's instructions and aimed his weapon at the dragon's throat. The giant sword cut open the dragon scales at the throat of the white dragon, and pierced the dragon's skin bit by bit. When the dragon's skin was pierced, a huge amount of blood gurgled out from the wound.
