The sun shines down from the sky, embracing a bright green plain. Fresh air rises from the tips of the grass and flows through every corner of the plain.
This kind of weather and this kind of place are the best choice for outings. However, except for the dragon tribe, it seems that no race dares to play here. The purpose of Aranza and his party's coming here is of course not to play such a simple and high-profile content. .
"From here on, we will go our separate ways," Nicole Robin said to Korra. She seemed to hate the sunny weather, or hate this "activity center" of the dragon tribe. She frowned, her face Facing the golden-orange rays of light, his eyes flashed with resentment and anger.
It was Aranza who answered Nico Robin. He breathed in the sunshine-scented air very much, which was much better than the damp and rotten smell in the forest. He turned to look at Nico Robin, and said in his tone Without too much emotion, he said: "Well, from here to the caves or to the Holy Mountain, we still have a long distance to travel."
"There's no need to go together,"
Nicole Robin said coldly: "I have my purpose, and you have yours. Since the purpose is different, why should we take the same path? And...since you want me to take the blame for you, you can, but you It also has to be of some value. You help me attract the attention of the Dragon Clan, and I do something more extraordinary. Isn't this great?"
“The best of both worlds,”
Korra took the words and said: "Very good, then, I wish you a pleasant journey, but...if you want to go back, I won't wait for you,"
"There is a magical portal on the top of the holy mountain that is the only one that can be used in the unknown sea. I will leave this damn place from there,"
Cora nodded, but said nothing more. If possible, she would naturally hope to retreat through the magic portal, but she always knew the role she played in this incident, and so did Aranza.
The two sides immediately dispersed, and the Marauders headed by Korra continued to advance straight towards the caves, while Nicole Robin and her student, Crete, would first move along the edge of the plain and come from the other direction. Entering the Holy Mountain, the dragons' eyes are all focused on the arrogant predators, and they will not notice the figures in the other direction. Even if they notice, Crete's identity as a dragon can blind the dragons' eyes. .
As Aranza came closer and closer to the caves, the dragons' demonstrations and threatening roars became more and more frequent, but they still did not leave their lairs, like weak misers standing at the door of the treasure room, holding tightly Key, facing a powerful robber alone, and from the dragon's roar, Aranza gradually heard a hint of anxiety and anger.
Although the giant dragons here are uneasy because the remaining fighting force that left the dragon nest has never returned, and they have also seen the fate of some of their companions who tried to intercept the intruders before, they are always arrogant, even if Only the young and old dragons were left. When Aranza and his party were only a hundred meters away from the first cave, the dragons on this peak finally organized themselves, with dozens of dragons in total attacking the intruders.
Facing the black shadows descending from the peak, the invaders did not panic at all, and were even orderly. According to the original plan, Aranza and Chiwu left the team to face the dragon. Neither of them held back. This battle Not only do you need to kill the "misers" in front of you, you also need to scare the "misers" in the "treasure rooms" next door and let them know that this group of bandits is not something they can resist.
There is no suspense in this battle. After all, the combat power of the young dragon and the old dragon is not as good as that of the adult dragon. Although the former is agile, he does not have much combat experience, and his actions are full of mistakes. Aranza and Chi Wu didn't need to deliberately find the angle of attack at all, he raised his hands and lowered his hands to kill the young dragon; although the old dragon had rich fighting experience, some of his moves even surprised Aranza and Chiwu, but After all, they were in their twilight years, and their physical strength and physical strength were not as good as before. So, under the force of the attack, Alanza and Chi Wu used clumsiness and cleverness to send them to fight with the young dragon. Buried with.
The battle only lasted for more than half an hour. After that, Aranza, who had exhausted all his strength, was carried back to the team by Chi Wu, and the giant dragons on the peak had turned into corpses on the ground. Korra even asked the sailors to divide the work , pulled out the dragon scales of several young dragons in just half an hour. Although the strength of these dragon scales is not as strong as that of adult dragons, the color is extremely bright and beautiful. Their value, at least in the most aristocratic market, The dragon scales far exceed those of an adult dragon. As for the dragons in several adjacent caves, their threatening sounds suddenly became much less threatening.
"Come on, let me empty out these guys' caves,"
Korra came down towards the sailors, and then she remembered something. She looked up and looked at the caves in front of her. This was a spiral peak with dozens of layers, and there were more than ten giant dragons on each layer. The caves where people live, and there is a wide platform in front of each cave. Korra thought for a while, waved her hand, and added: "Well...it is not necessary to empty all the caves, leaving one or two caves on each floor. Don't Go in and pretend not to notice,"
Although Aranza had exhausted all his strength in the battle with the dragon, he still had the strength to stand up and speak. He was a little confused and asked: "Well, why don't they all be evacuated?"
"Wouldn't it be nice to give the other dragons in the caves a little hope?"
Korra looked mysterious, but her tone was triumphant, and she said: "When we move things here, they can see clearly over there. If they find out that we always miss one or two caves and don't move them... …”
"They will get lucky and think that we may ignore the cave where they are. In this way, the remaining dragons will not have the courage to fight us,"
The person who answered was Chi Wu. It was rare for him to say some inferences. After saying this, he nodded towards Korra with admiration and said: "Korra's strategy is meticulous and convincing."
Korra raised her eyebrows and replied: "Oh, I can only be a little clever. If you are immune to magic attacks and immune to physical attacks like you, there is no need to think about anything, just push it."
"I also have shortcomings," Chiwu's words suddenly aroused the interest of Aranza and Korra.
"If you don't mind saying it..."
Korra deliberately added a touch of disdain to her tone and said, "Well, I don't mind listening to it either,"
"I don't mind saying it,"
A smile appeared on Chiwu's sharp face: "The so-called immunity to magic attacks and immunity to physical attacks are actually just maximizing certain things... If you two are willing to spend a few years listening to me explain, I still don't know. Mind explaining,"
Aranza stared at Chi Wu's face and frowned slightly. Chi Wu had always maintained a sense of mystery in his impression before. Now, Chi Wu had to eliminate the mystery himself, but it made Aranza feel even more pressured.
At this time, the sailors were attached to the ancient stone giant, while the ancient stone giant was trying hard to climb the peak. This was the first time for this ancient stone giant to do such a thing. Its movements were slightly clumsy and its speed was slightly slower, but it was relatively It is always much faster than sailors climbing by themselves.
There was still a little distance before the ancient stone giant climbed to the first level of the cave where the giant dragon lived. This was enough for Chiwu to finish his words. He gathered his thoughts for a moment and said: "I think you two don't have time to listen to my explanation in detail, so, I Just put it simply, I maximized certain things to gain immunity to magic attacks and immunity to physical attacks. These two abilities are actually only aimed at normal range magic attacks or physical attacks."
"And once someone attacks me with maximum magic attack or physical attack, these two abilities of mine will be ineffective. The reason... The battle between maximization and maximization will never be peaceful,"
"Well, what is maximization," Aranza asked his doubts.
"You can understand the strongest,"
Chi Wu explained: "But this 'strongest' is not limited to a certain aspect. Any branch of a system reaching the top can be regarded as the maximum of the system. This is a bit contradictory, but it is true, because no matter whether it is human Even gods, there is no being who has cultivated all branches of a system to the top,"
"It is somewhat similar to the level system under the Sanctuary in our Thorn Continent," Korra said. Thinking about it, in the level system under the Sanctuary, the standard for promotion only refers to a certain value. When this value reaches According to the promotion standard, the cultivator's level will be improved. This grading system is not rigorous and has many errors and omissions. However, among the complex cultivation methods, this grading system is the most common measurement standard.
After listening to Chiwu's explanation, Aranza thought hard. The path he was walking on was different from the hierarchy of the Continent of Thorns, but a brand new path based on rules. But if Chiwu's theory was applied, Aranza could It was found that the prototype for establishing this theory is probably the power of rules.
He did not tell Chi Wu his conjecture, because Aranza knew very well that Chi Wu would waste his time saying this just because he hoped Aranza could get some conjectures.
His good impression of Chi Wu improved slightly.
"We have more important things now,"
Korra stretched out his hand and knocked Aranza on the head, pulling him out of his thoughts and saying: "No matter how magical the theory is, it cannot avoid reality. What we should pay attention to now is the wealth of the Dragon Clan,"
After she finished speaking, she reached out and pointed upwards. It turned out that before she knew it, the sailors had emptied a giant dragon's cave. The amount of wealth hidden in each dragon's cave was beyond the group's expectation. Only the bottom layer was empty. This cave will prevent sailors from freeing up extra space to pick up more gold, silver and jewelry.
"Well, it seems that just transporting these treasures will take a lot of time," Aranza glanced at the layered caves and couldn't help but sigh,
