Chapter 285 Slaying the Dragon and Bullying the Dog
After Ren woke up in the room, the first thing he did was to summon the right arm part of the armor.
At the tiger's mouth, you can see a clear scratch. To be precise, it is a small gash made by something sharp. Although the gauntlet has not been completely cut through, this is the first time that Ren has seen armor.
damaged.
The thing that caused this scratch was none other than Renn's own Allenville sword.
While fighting Sprague, Ren found that it was difficult for him to cause fatal damage to the dragon. His strength could suppress the dragon, but his fists hitting the dragon's scales would not cause much damage. The long sword could pierce.
The dragon scales could only make Sprague feel needle-like pain.
As for looking for weak points such as the eyes, the opponent has already taken precautions and protected the vital points tightly.
In the final analysis, it is because although the long sword in his hand is extremely sharp, it is damaged after all. The handle is loose and cannot be slashed. Even if he stabs, he must hold the sword body with his hand when pulling it out.
Lane and Sprague fought for a long time. Apart from Sprague's howling and screaming, all he could do was scratch the opponent's golden shell covered with black scales. The fight on both sides shook the ground, but the actual damage was not done.
Didn't cause much.
Finally, Ren was heartbroken and simply put away the hilt of the sword, grabbed the sword body and slashed directly, finally catching Sprague off guard and successfully slit the dragon's throat.
The effect is very good, but...it's also a bit lethal to myself.
Ren touched the cut on his gauntlet. If it had been deeper, he might have cut his hand.
It can cut through armor. It seems that Ren despised this sword before. Now that he thinks about it, Alexia made a special trip to the World Congress headquarters to steal the long sword. There is no way it is just a show. Maybe he can succeed.
Later, Alexia also strengthened this.
It's just that being strong makes you stronger, but it is a veritable double-edged sword.
Still have to use it as little as possible.
But judging from the fact that it can destroy armor, if armor is really related to gods, then this sword, which has been ignored, is likely to become the key to solving the problem in the future.
I wonder if Alexia had already arranged this.
Moreover, we will leave for Koti tomorrow to look for traces of the Wolf God, so it would be good to have one more method.
…
On the other side, Lailin's trio had basically finished their investigation in Belo Hatan and were preparing to leave on their luxury plane.
As for the harvest…
Although she was accompanied by the bodyguards of Lailin's family, the criminal investigation experts she hired, and a powerful mage, nothing was found.
The Belohatan royal family felt that they were losing face and did not want to meet anyone at this time. The Lelinto family's connections said they wanted to invest in Belohatan. The royal family was tempted, but then they still refused to meet.
Because the luxurious hall they specially used to receive guests was smashed by the armored monster. If the guests are invited to meet in places that are not luxurious enough...
How shameless!
Even so, it cannot be said that they have gained nothing at all, there is still a little bit - such as this cute puppy that Lailin is teasing now.
They found this in the mountain forest where armored monsters are said to be haunted. When they first encountered it, they were scared of people and screamed very fiercely. Later, Lailin easily subdued it with food.
The mage who was traveling with him said that this little guy has some special blood mixed with it. It is not an ordinary animal, but it cannot be called a miracle. After inspection, he estimated that the only special thing about this dog is that it has a loud voice, so he should keep it as an ordinary pet.
Can.
Fortunately, after being subdued by Lailin, she no longer barks at anyone.
The private plane has already taken off, and their next destination is also Koti.
"Don't even tell that guy!" Lailin said enthusiastically while teasing the newly tamed pet in her hand: "It's been so long. If we get to Koti and that guy is later than us, I will detain him.
Money!”
PHS was fiddling with his notebook, and while typing on the keyboard, he said, "Didn't we decide to go to Nelas in the first place? I also want to see the sacred tree."
"I won't go, I won't go. We'll wait until we call that guy in Koti. I've been to that broken tree since I was a kid, and it's useless."
"What wish did you make?" PHS asked curiously.
Even Professor Ai looked over. What would the "princess" of the richest family in the world wish for when she was a child? She was also curious.
Lailin raised her lips and complained: "Who said I made a wish? At that time, I told my father that this tree is full of colorful hearts. It is very beautiful. Can I dig it up and plant it in my garden? It didn't take long for Nelas to succeed.
The mayor came and invited us away. He kept telling us that this tree was useless for making wishes and was a lie. He begged us not to dig it up. The guy thought I was small, so he wanted to use a small model of a broken tree.
Fool me."
PHS: "..."
It does sound like something Lailin can do...
"But..." PHS's attention quickly returned to the notebook, and he seemed to have discovered something extraordinary: "The armored monster seems to have appeared again."
PHS pushed the notebook in front of Lailin, who saw the news about the armored monster slaying the dragon.
"You actually killed a dragon? It sounds like a plot from a novel. Fexiti Plains? Where is that?"
A navigator who was familiar with geography immediately reported Fexiti's location.
Lailin thought for a moment: "It's closer than Koti, but it's just opposite to our current flight direction. Forget it, let's continue flying to Koti."
PHS has no objection to just making money along the way. Professor Ai fully agreed with the place where his friend Enid has been, so everyone's goal remains unchanged and they continue to go to Coti.
I don’t know which one will arrive first, or Renne.
After discussing with her teammates, Lailin continued to read the news and scrolled down the page bit by bit.
The following paragraphs analyze the identity of the murderer and tell people why it is said that the armored weirdo killed the dragon Sprague.
One is the writing left at the scene, and his style is like that of a weirdo in armor, while the other is more conclusive, with the wound matching Allenville's sword.
At the bottom of these paragraphs of explanatory text, at the end of the article, there are also several pictures, including those of weird men in armor and those with long swords.
When Lai Lin saw that the webpage had reached the end, she was about to click it out. The puppy she was holding in her hand, which had always been so obedient, suddenly jumped out for some reason and started chewing and barking at the laptop screen.
Lailin was startled, but fortunately the mage who accompanied her reacted quickly and immediately cast a spell to restrain the puppy.
Everyone exhaled, the dog barking was really too loud.
But why does it suddenly go crazy?
Seeing that the dog was restrained, PHS quickly took back his notebook to check. Strangely enough, as soon as the notebook screen moved, the puppy immediately became more honest.
Lai Lin was the first to notice it and immediately shouted: "PHS, quickly point the computer screen at it!"
"ah?"
"hurry up!"
PHS didn't know why, but he did as he was told. He turned the screen and pointed it in the direction of the puppy. Sure enough, it started to become manic again. If it hadn't been immobilized by the spell, it would probably have pounced on it again.
Lailin: "Turn around again!"
"..."
"turn around!"
"Woof woof woof!"
"Turn around!"
"..."
After trying it several times, I can basically confirm that the dog responds to the news on the screen, or to be precise, the pictures on the news.
The accompanying mage said to Lailin: "Miss, this dog may have seen the armored weirdo before, and there was some friction between the two parties. It is estimated that it had a grudge against the armored weirdo at that time."
Lailin touched the dog's head, which had gradually become docile, and snorted: "He is indeed a notorious armored weirdo, and he even bullies such a cute puppy! We must catch him!"
