In the rocky ground, everything else is in short supply, except for kobolds and goblins. There are nests of them everywhere.
It's just that those kobold dens with only dozens, or even hundreds, of kobolds are simply not worth Shanoba's liking.
Either don't do it, or do something big.
She remembered that there was an Eagle Cliff nearby, and there was a big cave there, and it was full of kobolds. Well, that was it.
While Shanoba was calculating, she flew towards Eagle Cliff.
On the other side, Gavin, who had just received a summons from Black Well Town, was rushing back from Eagle Cliff with the young dragon Ivinsa and his personal bodyguard Sterina.
After listening to the report of Erd's messenger, Gavin's first reaction was that this was something the Zhentarim would do.
The other party mobilized a sky mage with a pterosaur mount over.
Master Tian.
He is a type of mage specially trained by the Zhentarim.
Flying mounts are the standard equipment for these mages.
Provide assistance and cover to those caravans from the air.
It has now become an important symbol of the Zhentarim.
In the Desert of Aenook, I saw a mage riding a flying mount, circling around a caravan. This caravan was definitely from the Zhentarim.
He only feared that the Zhentarim would carry out assassinations and drive the monster swarm to attack the Black Well, but he ignored that the other party could come to drain the cauldron.
Fortunately, he attached great importance to the defense of the Black Well Tribe, and with a little financial resources, he asked Bede to find ways to customize and purchase large-scale defense facilities such as ballistae, ballistae, and catapults for him.
These things are really not expensive in Faerûn—compared to magic items that cost tens of thousands of gold, they are really very cheap.
An ordinary ballista costs only five hundred gold, and even a high-quality ballista only costs eight hundred gold, which is not as valuable as a dragon flutter bomb.
A light catapult is only eight hundred gold, and a heavy one is only a thousand gold.
Of course, these are all made by ordinary craftsmen. Once these ballistas and catapults are enchanted and turned into self-propelled ballistae or automatic attack catapults, they will be very valuable, and their value will increase at least ten times.
.
In Faerûn, the most expensive commodity is magic.
As long as those kobolds don't take the initiative to kneel down, it would be wishful thinking to rely on one or two sky mages to conquer Black Well Town.
"Pterosaur...the pterosaur with black wings, is it the one the messenger mentioned?" The young copper dragon has sharp eyes and can immediately detect targets several kilometers away.
"It can't be such a coincidence, right?" Gavin said a little surprised, "Go up and have a look."
"The direction is right, the characteristics are right, it must be him, a bastard, how dare you take advantage of my subjects and kill them!" Iwensa was furious and flew towards the pterosaur.
Compared to Gavin, the young copper dragon has more fire energy.
Now the Dragon Oak Leader is her iron rice bowl. She will be in trouble with anyone who touches her rice bowl.
"Young copper dragon?" The pterosaur's eyes were a little confused. When he found the young dragon, the distance between the two sides was only a few hundred meters.
But the strange situation made Shanoba a little stunned.
This red copper dragon has a dragon saddle on its back, and you can tell at a glance that it was kept in captivity.
However, there was no one sitting on the dragon saddle. Instead, there was a large living person, a half-elf, hanging under his front paws.
What kind of game is this?
The red copper dragon was clearly filled with anger and rushed toward him menacingly.
Young copper dragon!
Half elf!
Kobold!
A flash of inspiration flashed in Shanoba's mind, and she felt that everything was connected.
The half-elf in front of her is most likely the half-elf whom the middle-aged woman asked to replace her, the leader of the Black Well Tribe.
Not very likely, but 100% yes.
The other party was able to gather a group of kobolds for his own use, not because of his own ability, but because of the young copper dragon who was dragging him along.
In other words, the middle-aged woman made a mistake.
This young copper dragon is the real master of the Black Well tribe, and the half-elf is just a puppet on the table.
The fact that the half-elf is hung below instead of riding on top is a clear proof of their master-servant relationship.
As long as the young copper dragon is killed, the Black Well Tribe will be his.
If the opponent was an adult dragon, or even a young dragon, Shanobah would immediately land on the ground, change back to her original form, and crawl into various caves without hesitation.
But if it is a young copper dragon, she still has a great chance, especially if the other party drags a burden.
Compared with the giant dragon, the body structure of the pterosaur is more suitable for aerial combat.
Sanoba, who felt that she had smoothed out all the relationships, rushed forward with the same force.
The first one to launch the attack was Ivinsa.
To start with, it’s Slow Dragon’s Breath.
In air combat, it is absolutely correct to slow down the enemy, at least to make him invincible.
Just waiting for you!
Shanoba immediately lowered her body and jumped over with the slow dragon breath. The whip-like dragon tail swung hard in the air, a pair of dragon wings swung violently, there was an emergency stop in the air, and then there was a one hundred and eighty
A big turn around.
Chased towards the young copper dragon.
It is crucial to fight the real dragon and trick his dragon breath out.
Only in this way can it be convenient for you to start close combat.
The young copper dragon did not turn around, but kept flying forward, apparently waiting for its breath to resume again.
Under normal circumstances, the young copper dragon has a speed advantage, but now, there is a burden underneath him, which seriously slows down his speed.
It didn't take a few seconds for Shanobah to catch up.
Just as Shanoba swung her tail sting, preparing to launch a fatal blow.
Suddenly I felt like my brain had been hit, and I felt a little dizzy.
When I woke up again, there was a bone-piercing pain coming from my back.
The half-elf under the claws of the young copper dragon Diaozi has disappeared.
It didn't disappear, but fell on his back.
A spear was inserted deeply into the spine between the wings. Every time he flapped his wings, it was painful to the bone.
Without thinking, Shanobah immediately swung her tail spine and stabbed the half-elf riding on her back.
Gavin twisted the sharp spear without hesitation. The pterosaur was in pain, and its whole body shivered again. Its attack movements were deformed, and its tail stab attack became a bit weak.
Taking the opportunity, Gavin took Tail Thorn into his arms.
When Shanobah realized that her tail spine was captured, she instinctively pulled her back and immediately screamed, not daring to move any further.
Gavin's strength alone would not be able to capture the flying dragon's tail.
But the problem is that his other hand is tightly holding the sharp spear inserted into her body, and a large part of his strength is directly acting on it.
The harder she pulls, the greater the force exerted on the sharp spear, and the more painful it becomes.
Asymmetric information, wrong information interpretation.
The famous black dragon girl, with the joint efforts of Ivinsa and Gavin, could not hold on for a single round.
Directly under control and unable to do anything.
There are three attack methods of pterosaurs: bite, claw attack and sting.
Two are out of reach and one is restricted.
This was the most frustrating battle in Shanobah's life.
It's not that she has never failed, it's not that she hasn't been forced to escape, but at least she was either crushed by force or restrained by her abilities. She has never been defeated in such a confused and helpless way like this before.
I endured the pain in my back, and my whole body was filled with magic light.
Shanobah prepared to make a last-ditch effort and began to transform directly under the circumstances of being charged.
This is the most painful transformation Shanoba has ever had. Even the first transformation and bone reshaping have never been so painful (at that time, there was protection from the power of law, which would shield most of the pain. More
is feeling physically strange and weird).
She could clearly feel that the spear was squeezing and tearing inside her body. Her original plan of deforming the spear out of her body did not succeed.
The plan to throw the half-elf out of his body also failed.
After Gavin noticed something strange, he immediately released the tail stinger, firmly held the root where the sharp spear penetrated, and put weight on it.
When Shanobah showed her female outline, Gavin immediately activated the bionic technique - the power of the bull, stacking his power beyond the extraordinary. Just like the eight-clawed octopus, he immediately gave her two arms to
He was tied up and his legs were wrapped around the other person's waist.
It has to be said that the opponent's waist is very slender, just enough to cover a plate.
The two people entangled in the air seemed somewhat inappropriate to outsiders.
The black dragon girl who had just completed her transformation was naked. In order not to be thrown from the air, Gavin hugged her as tightly as possible.
This moment is a matter of life and death. Not to mention that Gavin doesn't care about the difference between men and women, Shanoba obviously doesn't care either.
While flapping the dragon's wings with great effort, he screamed: "Let go quickly, I can't hold on any longer. If this continues, both of us will fall to death."
Zanoba's dragon wings could not bear the weight of two people, and the sharp spear was still poking into her chest. Gavin, who was grabbing her from behind, was in the way. The two began to spin towards each other.
Falling, the dragon wings that kept flapping only slowed down the falling speed of the two.
"It's you who is going to die, not me." Gavin said confidently.
Ivinsa was hovering above them.
"Surrender, I am willing to surrender." Shanobah shouted hurriedly.
"Then change back and wait until you land." Gavin didn't believe in verbal promises.
Faced with such a tough enemy who was unable to make any progress, Shanoba was completely at her wits' end and could not gamble with the opponent until the last moment.
After all, the opponent still has a giant dragon holding the battle, and the possibility of falling to death is far less than his own.
In desperation, Shanobah could only obey the order and activate the pterosaur transformation again, reliving the pain of the previous transformation.
If I had known earlier, I should have surrendered earlier, so I wouldn't have to suffer this kind of crime.
After transforming back into a pterosaur, although Shanobah's tail spines were free again, she did not dare to continue attacking.
Making the sharp spear a little scary is just one of them.
Secondly, the mental attack that stunned her for several seconds made her very afraid.
If you don't do it right, you'll be asking for trouble.
Implementing it honestly is the wisest choice at the moment.
At this time, they were already less than a few dozen meters away from the ground. Shanobah directly found a slightly flatter hilltop and fell down.
Gavin had no intention of getting off the pterosaur's back, nor did he have any intention of pulling out the sharp spear.
When the young copper dragon landed, it stepped on the pterosaur's poisonous tail.
Shanobah squatted there obediently, not daring to make any movement.
"Was it you who was circling Black Well Town earlier?" Gavin asked straight to the point.
Sure enough, he was the half-elf from the Black Well Tribe.
At this moment, Shanobah, who was being stepped on by others, could no longer lament her good luck. This was a disgrace.
Shanobah answered honestly: "It's me."
"You are a Zhentarim?"
"No, but when I come here, I do have something to do with the Zhentarim..." Shanoba poured beans out of a bamboo tube and told the middle-aged woman's story. Anyway, she had nothing to do with the Zhentarim, so she betrayed her.
, without any psychological burden.
No, this is not a betrayal at all. There is no relationship between the two parties, and the employment is a matter of wishful thinking on the part of the other party.
After listening to Shanobah's words, Gavin believed 50% of them. This was indeed a common method used by the Zhentarim. The only thing he was not sure about was whether the person in front of him was as innocent as she said. She was trying to excuse herself and protect herself.
