About a hundred meters away from the sunken cave, in the deep pit where the black dragon had just trampled the footprints, a head suddenly appeared, then a neck, shoulders, body, and finally feet. This human had significant dragon veins.
Characteristics, whether it is the jaundice-colored vertical boy, the thin blue-gray scales covering the skin, or the hands that transform into dragon-like sharp claws, this is the Woody who just disappeared in the cave.
He touched the "Thor Stone Ring" that was still on his nails after doubling up. The strange Sol Stone magic that came with it saved him twice. The previous time was when the black dragon used its breath to break the stalactites above his head.
, forming a landslide, he used the Thor Stone Ring without hesitation and sank into the soil to avoid damage.
The second time was just now, but this time the movement was much louder than the black dragon's breath. The thunder in the ears had not stopped, but the shaking was much smaller, and it was obvious that the foundation was solid.
The pain in his chest still existed. Taking advantage of this gap, Woody felt that he drank a bottle of holy water that had been prepared before. The pain weakened a little. At the same time, Woody observed the location of the hole in more detail. Although he had planned several pits
However, the final plan is similar. First, lure the black dragon to the predetermined location, and then use the magic of Thor's stone ring to escape while detonating the cave.
Using the environment to deal with the enemy is a compulsory course for every player. When he knew that he was about to face the black dragon, he had already made various plans on the way, including the desperate attack just now and the premeditation to deliberately bring it to the place of death.
It had been rehearsed in his mind several times, so when he saw this scene, Woody was not overly happy, but cautious.
The vitality of the giant dragon is very tenacious. Although the damage caused by falling boulders is enough to destroy a large adventure group, even if one does not die for a while, the suffocation of being buried in the soil will make people die in despair, but the giant dragon is different.
They have strong bodies. If a hill presses on them, they will have many ways to free themselves. The most stupid and stupid way is to use their claws to dig a passage to get out.
The dragon's claws are natural magic weapons with a natural +2, and cutting stones under its claws is like playing. Therefore, even if the black dragon is successfully deceived this time, life and death are still uncertain.
In particular, this black dragon is not as simple as an ordinary black dragon. Not only is it a part-time professional, but its background may also be related to Tiamat, the mother of evil dragons.
Sure enough, Woody's guess was not wrong.
Kara!
Violent noises came from the boulder buried at the entrance of the cave. Woody's expression did not change much. He just clenched the curved sword in his hand. He had already made a second plan. Seeing that it was not dead, he could
I ran away with peace of mind.
He just hoped that by the time he arrived, Cecil and others would have found what he was looking for.
Woody took another look at the entrance to the sunken cave, then turned around without hesitation and rushed in the direction Cecil and others left.
…
About five minutes later.
The boulder at the entrance of the cave suddenly exploded, and two sharp dragon claws poked out, mixed with rubble, forming a round hole with a radius of a person. Soon, as the dragon claws were retracted, the scales on the head of a head were oozing with red blood.
, the rather embarrassed black dragon's head came out, it was the black dragon Beast who was buried alive in the cave and was unable to survive.
The look on Beast's face at this time was particularly fierce and distorted. He was almost holding his breath and could not release it.
It never imagined that human beings could be so cunning. If it hadn't been for the desperate grace given to it by the Dragon Mother, it would have ended up here. But what it couldn't accept even more was that if it was because of the life-and-death confrontation between the giant dragons,
It is enough for a crisis to trigger divine grace, but this is just a small bug that cannot be smaller.
Why!
Best was gnashing his teeth angrily, partly because the human dared to fool it, and partly because of the sequelae of divine grace in desperate situations. There is no free lunch in the world, let alone the mother of dragons.
There are many divine blessings given, some can make the dragon grow bigger, some can give the dragon's wings an extra pair of claws so that it can cast spells, and some can give the scales the ability to store breath.
When necessary, the dragon can spray out a year's worth of water in one day.
but!
The abilities are different, but they all come with a price. For example, the effect of his Desperate Divine Grace is that the dragon will quickly recover all its health points after entering a dying state. Although Beast looks very embarrassed now, his body
The wounds he suffered just now, including the knife on his back and the injury to his left eye, have completely healed.
But what this means is that when he returns to the Dragon Queen and returns to life, it will have to collect a hundred times its own property within a month, which means that it will lose at least 10,000 gold coins in this wave of property.
That's almost a third of the savings in its treasury.
He came here partly for the Dragon Queen's divine favor and partly to make money. Whether the Mother of Dragons is recruiting chromatic dragons for a bloody battle in Hell or heading to the Star Plane to fulfill her covenant with the Githyanki, she will give adult colors
Dragon is a good reward.
Although it is usually given by the summoner, such as the various devil princes in Hell, or the Githyanki queen in the Astral Realm, a small amount of Tiamat will still come out of her own treasury, and some of it will be divided evenly.
.
And this time, it was a mission sent by Tiamat personally. Besta originally thought it was very simple. Just by stationing in a remote plane for less than ten years, he could harvest the wealth that used to take thirty years to collect.
, not to mention that you can also get a lot of merit points in the Evil Phosphorus Fortress, which is a very cost-effective deal, but...
Best felt like his heart had been cut by a knife. The physical pain just now was far less serious than the mental trauma he suffered this time, but he couldn't blame the Mother of Dragons in any way, and he didn't dare to
.
Therefore, I can only express my anger at the lingering Woody breath in the air, but this time, it is no longer the incompetent barking on the surface, but like an inconspicuous puddle in the swamp, clear on the surface, but already dark and sticky inside.
The thick, deep anger and murderous intention were suppressed by him under the heavy mud, waiting for the moment when the prey fell, and suddenly swallowed it.
"Then let's see who laughs last!"
The black dragon glanced at the direction Woody left and walked in the opposite direction.
Since that guy Keso pretended to be dead and refused to come, don't blame him for going directly to find him.
These humans are in the temple and cannot escape anywhere. It is very clear about the principle of being a turtle in a urn, not to mention that dragons never like to fight alone. What they love most is to sit high in the back and watch the dragon slayers who dare to challenge themselves.
Or, they capsized and were destroyed in the wave after wave of monsters.
It has done many such things, and there can only be one winner.
That's it!
Only it!
…
The moment you enter the botanical garden, the dim caves and light seem to be abandoned behind you. Instead, at the central high platform, the ever-dark light source reflects the surrounding walls, the ground, and even the cave ceiling, and the green and spreading shrubs extremely clearly.
, it seems like an underground forest, with countless plants and trees growing in it.
In the Jingge Forest, the herb collectors have worked hard to find the gallinopsis fungi. The soil here is almost connected together. Some good herbs are also needed, but that's it. More magical herbs here have already been included.
The killer vines and other monsters were devoured, leaving not much for them. Woody walked very fast, and the natural walker allowed him to always find a path that would not affect his speed when passing through any complicated shrubs.
He quickly discovered the traces of the battle. It was an open space in the forest. The surrounding plants were sparse and the rocks were exposed. Only a prismatic stone pillar about five meters high collapsed softly. There were dozens of holes in the interrupted position of the stone pillar.
With thin green vines at its roots, Woody could tell at a glance what kind of monster it was. It was obviously:
——"Tree Rope Monster"
This is a kind of predator that often ambush in underground caves. They can change their color and shape to make themselves look like ice pillars. If there are no such mimetic objects in the terrain, they will
He shrank his body very small and disguised himself as a big stone.
And the thin vines wrapped around their bodies are not simple. They are tentacles produced by them, but they are not flesh and blood like octopuses, but a semi-fluid substance like melted wax, and like its body, they can enter a camouflage state.
, when it touches the target, it can paralyze the opponent and absorb power.
This tree-rope monster was undoubtedly dead. There were still traces of battle on the ground, including broken arrows and traces of scorched flames. It was obvious that both Cecil and Caverman had taken action.
Woody then discovered several more traces of battles, and the dead were all common monsters in the Lost Temple Botanical Garden copy in his memory.
There are a lot of them, and they obviously create a lot of noise, otherwise they wouldn't be able to attract so many creatures in the botanical garden.
And when Woody followed the trail deeper into the botanical garden, which covers an area of about one kilometer, and was about to reach the high platform with the light source in the center, a warning voice suddenly came from far above his head.
"who!"
The voice was old and hoarse. When Woody heard this voice, his tense heart relaxed a little, and he waved and said with a smile.
"it's me."
After saying that, Woody walked over following the sound, and happened to see Cecil and others who were searching around. The tabby cats were sniffing next to a light blue flower, and the one who made the beeping sound was the crawling cat.
In a nearby tree, the old ranger Caverman, with his bowstring already stretched tight.
After hearing Woody's voice, he loosened the bow string. Although this did great damage to the bow, the enchanted arrows in his hand were useless. He also had a spare bow, but the enchanted arrows were useless.
Not much.
"Are you OK!"
After hearing Kafferman's warning, many people turned their attention here. Seeing Woody who had not completely faded away from his dragon veins, they also looked around curiously, especially Cecil, who was even more amazed and looked up.
Looking at his appearance, he even touched the scales, which were as hard as a suit of armor.
"Not bad, how's the black dragon doing?"
"He's not dead. He should be here soon. I just don't know if he's alone or with the people from the temple."
When Woody left there, he was already prepared for the situation that the Black Dragon might go to bring reinforcements, but he knew clearly that the most urgent task was to go to the Holy Hall to destroy the sacrifice in the mouth of Quetzalcoatl. After destroying it, he
It is possible for one side to have one more reinforcement, and the difficulty of the copy will be lower.
"Stop talking and go find the seeds quickly. Time is running out."
Woody paused the conversation after the reunion, and there really wasn't much time left for him now.
He lowered his head and looked around, looked at Cecil and said.
"What areas did you search?"
The location of the seeds in the previous life was very random, and he only knew about a few points. It had been a while since they were separated. Woody passed by first and they had searched, so it would be much easier to find them directly.
"We searched both the south and the east but couldn't find it. The only remaining areas are the high platform, the west and the north."
"I see."
Woody nodded, then passed over the crowd and searched the botanical garden with ease. Since the monsters were all solved by Cecil and others, Woody did not encounter any difficulties on the road, and soon he was in the north.
On a cliff, he saw what he wanted, a dot surrounded by dense shrubs and glowing with emerald green.
"Seed of Life."
This is also the main reason why this botanical garden has no one to take care of it and is so dense with only light. This life seed has the power of natural growth, which is equivalent to a high-level Dru Yin constantly supplying this botanical garden day and night.
"I found it. You guys go to the high platform and wait for me."
Woody said to Cecil and others who were following behind him. The others did not leave immediately, but looked at the emerald green light on the cliff with surprised expressions. The natural power contained in it was enough to make people
Just one whiff will make you feel happy.
Woody just got close to it, and this life seed made his wounds improve. Coupled with the demon hunter's amazing physical strength, the injuries that originally took a while to recover from the holy water have now improved, and the scabs are intact.
"It's a pity that I can't take it away, otherwise this would be an excellent portable priest. No, it is more useful than the priest. After all, the priest's magic requires a casting time, and this seed, as long as it is worn on the body, will be used before the energy is exhausted.
It will always work, it’s like a mobile blood-restoring hot spring.”
Woody sighed with a little regret. In the last life, this thing was almost disposable and could be given up after use. As a player at that time, he didn't feel it was a pity to use it at all, but now, he feels reluctant to part with it.
a feeling of.
After all, if you can bring out a copy, it will at least be a high-level magic item, which is quite high among high-level items.
After climbing up the cliff and removing the life seed, Woody put it into the dimensional ring and stopped looking at it. He seemed to be afraid that if he looked at it for a long time, he would develop an obsession with taking it for himself. The main reason was that it was too comfortable. As a natural walker,
His natural affinity is naturally very high, and the energy source of the life seeds comes from the same kind as him. This is like a hungry traveler in the desert encountering an oasis. He just stays for a while, and the traveler is naturally unwilling to leave.
Unwilling.
But there is naturally no room for too much entanglement at this time.
He looked towards the high platform with the green arches in the distance, and was about to descend from the cliff to catch up with Cecil and others.
At this time, Woody, who had excellent vision, saw movement at the entrance of the botanical garden, and the sound reached here in an instant.
It was a violent roar, mixed with a familiar sound.
