Chapter 165: Outline of Flor's Dragon Slaying Techniques
Flor is a down-and-out nobleman who lives in a dank basement in Stratholme.
When Robbie saw his dilapidated residence, an old ancestral bed, and garbage everywhere on the floor, especially when he learned that this man only had one decent piece of clothing, he immediately felt like he had been cheated.
If I hadn't heard the name of "Flor's Compendium of Dragon-Slaying Techniques", I might have turned around and left.
"I have the secret recipe for slaying a dragon. I want to pay a thousand gold, can I?"
Flor lit an oil lamp, and a bright light came out of the dark basement. A big mouse was nibbling on the corner of the table. After feeling the light, he raised his head and looked at the two people quietly.
"If you can really slay a dragon, what's the big deal?" Robbie muttered.
Robby's fingertips burst out with bright light, which is the power of holy light, and he uses this to show his identity.
"It turns out he is a respected paladin master, disrespectful and disrespectful."
With a respectful look, Flor invited Robbie to sit on the only chair and sat on the edge of the bed. Soon he showed a beaming expression and began to talk about the glory and history of his family.
Robbie listened patiently. In the continent of Azeroth, it was a tradition to show off one's illustrious ancestors to strangers. Even the narrator himself was not sure how much fiction and exaggeration there was.
It turns out that the Flor family was once prominent. Flor's great-grandfather was a small lord in the Stratholme region with a wealthy family. In a small-scale war against trolls, he once beheaded a troll priest.
He made considerable military exploits, was appreciated by a certain Rivendell, and was considered a somewhat famous warrior.
This little lord has a fertile manor, his own small castle, a beautiful and virtuous wife, and well-behaved children. He can be considered a worry-free life.
Until one day, a blue dragon flew over the territory and rested for a long time on the hill behind the small castle. Flor's great-grandfather accidentally saw the elegant blue dragon. He didn't know which muscle was touched, and he fell into a spell.
I was stunned and suddenly had the idea to build a mechanical dragon that could fly in the air.
Humans have long had the dream of flying. On the magical continent of Azeroth, flying is not a problem. There are many magics that can do it. Even flying instruments have been invented long ago, such as large airships, dwarves and gnomes.
helicopters, etc.
It's hard to imagine how a wooden propeller can withstand the pressure of the wind.
In fact, the principle of the dwarf's helicopter is not exactly the same as that of the earth's helicopter. It mainly uses the power of magic to power the climb, and the propeller only plays a role in turning and stabilizing.
In order to realize his dream, Flor's great-grandfather spent a lot of family wealth. Unfortunately, his magical talent was limited and the process of developing a mechanical dragon was not smooth. Before his death, he passed all the research results to Flor.
grandfather, and established the ancestral precept that even if there is only the last member of the Flor family left, they must create a mechanical dragon.
Flor's grandfather learned his lesson and took a different approach, focusing on the characteristics of dragons. Although he failed to successfully develop a mechanical dragon, he became a famous dragon research expert.
This ancestral teaching was passed down to Flor's father, who depleted the last of the family's property. The servants and servants had long since been dismissed, and the castle and manor had been mortgaged. Flor's father passed away amid poverty.
, all that was left to him was a large ancestral bed and a pile of useless mechanical dragon drawings.
The impoverished Flor had no time to study mechanical dragons. He gave up the dream of his ancestors and indulged in alcohol and beauty.
In order to get money, he sorted out the drawings of the mechanical dragon and accidentally discovered a secret.
Although the mechanical dragon cannot be manufactured, the third generation of Flor has made remarkable achievements in researching dragons and has discovered many weaknesses of dragons. If a strong enough warrior masters these skills, he can slay a dragon alone.
So Flor sorted out these materials and compiled them into a book called "Flor's Compendium of Dragon-Slaying Techniques". He boasted himself as a great dragon-slaying warrior and made up many legendary stories about dragon-slaying.
With his eloquent mouth, he really attracted the attention of many people.
Although no one believed Flor's lies, it was an interesting pastime to listen to Flor's well-founded and witty talk about his dragon-slaying process. Flor even received invitations from many nobles.
"Believe me, Robbie, the tradition of our Flor family is to seek truth from facts. All the information recorded here is true. In order to observe the flight of the dragon, my grandfather once ventured to the Dragon Bone Plains and lived next to the Wyrmrest Temple.
For thirty years, I have observed the daily life of the Dragon Clan every day, and these are valuable experiences.”
Robbie was hesitant and accepted "Flor's Compendium of Dragon-Slaying Techniques".
After flipping through the first few pages, Robbie nodded, something interesting.
Robbie noticed a section about the flight of dragons and made a detailed comparison with birds.
Birds have hollow bones, wings that are relatively large compared to their bodies, relatively short digestive systems and developed respiratory systems, fast-beating hearts, strong blood circulation, etc., which dragons do not possess.
Compared with birds, dragons are too large and their wingspan is not wide enough. Their flight principle is the same as that of birds, relying on the combination of magic and aerodynamics.
Without magical support, dragons would not only be unable to fly into the sky, but would even be crushed by their own weight.
The secret of slaying dragons is how to break the magic that dragons use to support their bodies and fly.
The Dragon Slaying Compendium also explains the origin of the five-color dragons. The five-color dragons in Azeroth were created by the Titans based on the Ancestral Dragon, rather than evolving in accordance with the laws of nature. This resulted in their bodies not being the same.
Perfect, with some small flaws, but the power of the Titans is too strong, and it is difficult for the dragons themselves to change themselves.
In fact, the Dragon Clan has long been aware of its own shortcomings, which is why they must keep a low profile and reduce their chances of contact with the outside world to avoid being exposed.
The black dragon clan worked hard to conduct various experiments, hoping to create the perfect dragon clan.
Flor's father once witnessed the decisive battle between the Red Dragon Princess and the Black Dragon Princess from afar. It was not as evenly matched as the outside legends say. In fact, it was the Black Dragon Princess who won. Flor's father discovered that the Black Dragon clan has been able to fight very well.
The Red Dragon Clan obviously can't hide their shortcomings.
It is not easy to overcome the weaknesses of the red dragon clan. You need to master strong strength. The power of the gods should be able to do it. Robbie read the dragon slaying outline carefully and felt that there is no problem.
One thousand gold coins was not a problem, so Robbie applied for one thousand gold coins from Baron Rivendell and bought "Flor's Compendium of Dragon-Slaying Techniques".
Robbie knew very well that he should never trust others easily. Even things that seemed to be the truth needed to be verified.
In the church in Stratholme, Robbie found Arthas.
"I want to slay the dragon and kill the hateful Red Dragon Princess and her subordinates."
Robbie said solemnly: "I need your help, Your Highness. Your deceased soul must monitor the Red Dragon Princess and his subordinates 24 hours a day, and record their daily routine and habits."
By verifying the information obtained through surveillance with the Dragon Slaying Outline, you will know the authenticity of this book. (To be continued)
