Originally, the four young masters were supposed to go, but there couldn't be no leader in the camp, otherwise everyone would be in panic. But no one wanted to give up this opportunity to fight the monsters in the Traledi Mountains, so Laiwu, Kaiba, and Chenzhu had no choice but to draw lots. In the end, Chenzhu cursed and stayed at the camp.
The potions book said that falcon-billed lizards are most attracted to smells like garlic and onions, so Alvin asked someone to bring several bags of onions and garlic. The soup in the next few days may not taste nearly as good.
Lai Wu personally selected a hundred strong and experienced martial arts practitioners, and Alvin selected twenty powerful magicians. These one hundred and twenty people took advantage of the afternoon light to ride around the Twin Mountains, in the endless stretch of mountains. Looking for the entrance to the mountains in the thousands of miles of Tralede Mountains.
After walking for nearly twenty miles, I found a low entrance among the high mountains. Looking around, I saw dense dry forests, which was eerie and eerie. The skylight was much dimmed when I got here, and from time to time there were lone crows wailing. It sounds very permeable.
Alvin ordered people to unload the two crucibles and place them near the mountain walls on both sides of the entrance, and then started to light a fire to boil water and boil onions and garlic. Langyun and a few mages used simple wind magic to blow the cooked smoke into the mountains. The smell is quite tempting from a distance, but when you get closer, it feels so spicy that your eyes, mouth and nose can't stand it.
Alvin asked the mages to take turns. Although this was not a physical skill, it was a test of endurance.
Laiwu, on the other hand, sent his martial arts disciples to hide behind the rocks at the entrance, watching what was going on in the mountains.
Almost an hour had passed. After these few trips, Langyun's eyes were so hot that he could hardly open them. Alvin was a little impatient with waiting, so he simply stopped hiding and paced back and forth at the entrance of the mountain gate.
At this moment, there was a burst of ground movement, and there was movement deep in the dry forest.
Alvin whistled twice towards Langyun, meaning to let him lead the mages to withdraw first. But he was brave enough to be an expert, so he walked more than ten steps inside, and when he looked closely, he saw a monster jumping back and forth in the dry forest.
"Looking at this figure, it must be a falcon-billed lizard." Alvin thought to himself, "But the number is..."
He couldn't help but swallow.
"Come back quickly, you don't want your life." Lai Wu cursed in a low voice from behind.
Alvin finally came to his senses and turned around to run away, but he stepped on a dead branch and the soles of his feet slipped. He fell to the ground all of a sudden. Then he tried to get up. He rolled and crawled in panic, but he couldn't. There were so many dead branches and leaves that it fell down several times, making it very embarrassing. There is no trace of the coolness of walking alone at the mountain gate just now.
Now, the dozens of falcon-billed lizards in the dry forest saw such funny prey, they immediately divided into several columns and rushed out without any scruples.
Alvin heard the noise behind him and turned his head to see that these green-scaled and cunning monsters among the lightning and flints were already more than ten steps away from him. Then he remembered that he was a magician and slapped the ground with his palm to bless himself. He performed a floating technique and began to fly out of the mountain.
These dozens of monsters separated into several paths. A dozen of them went to the two crucibles to smell and look at them, while the remaining twenty or so saw the humanoid prey about to run away and started chasing after it.
Alvin thought to himself, "I'm floating in the air, what can you monsters who run on four legs do to me?"
The next second, he regretted his ignorant idea. The ones chasing him at the front kicked off their feet and flew higher than Alvin.
Alvin looked behind him in the dim light of the sky and saw a huge shadow covering his figure behind him. He stood up with his "light shield" in fright.
Those falcon-billed lizards opened their mouths and bit into the air, biting directly on the outer wall of the light shield, as if gnawing on a stone. They couldn't help but let out a few painful screams and fell down unwillingly.
Alvin's hair stood up as he looked at the two rows of ferocious fangs.
At this time, Laiwu and Kaiba took advantage of the situation to rush out. Kaiba led dozens of martial arts warriors to rush to the front, armed with spears and giant shields, and directly engaged the monsters below Alvin. Laiwu, on the other hand, led dozens of other martial artists, bent their bows and set arrows, and shot at the dozen or so animals at the crucible.
Langyun led the twenty magicians to stand high on the mountain walls on both sides, attacking the monsters from a high position.
However, as soon as Fang fought, he found that the skins of these monsters were really not that hard. There was nothing they could do with spears, crossbows, or magic. All attacks seemed weak.
However, the tall falcon-billed lizard fought back with great ferocity. The giant shield martial arts that was good at defense could barely survive the monster's brutal collisions, kicks, and bites, but as soon as the monster swiped its tail, everyone was unable to withstand it. Every time the stocky tail rail is struck, a wailing sound can be heard.
Alvin thought that continuing like this was not an option. His goal was just to kill one or two and remove the liver and gallbladder. There was no need to fight these dozens of monsters here.
At this moment, Alvin heard someone in the crowd yelling, "Stick, sweep, pick up, chop down." He shot four times in a row, and a monster was hit so dizzy that it took several steps back.
"Slant hook to explore the moon!" This time the tip of the spear scraped off a layer of dirt from the monster's green scale skin.
"Sweep the snow and chase the wind!" The gun tip drew a sharp arc, and dark green blood finally oozed from the monster's body.
The sight of blood boosted morale, and many people were ignited with fighting spirit. They no longer restrained their hands and feet, and started fighting with the monsters freely.
"Cang Long breaks the sea!" The gun fell from the sky and hit the falcon-billed lizard's head directly.
"Boom" the monster fell down in response. It looked like it was probably dead.
Now the morale was even stronger, and all these martial arts masters showed their special skills to fight the monsters until they were red-eyed.
When these falcon-billed lizards saw the death of one of their companions, they couldn't help but howl. Apparently, this also greatly stimulated their nerves.
"Kaiba, be careful!" Alvin saw a monster rushing towards Kaiba's back from the air, obviously wanting to avenge his dead companion.
Alvin picked up his staff and fired more than a dozen instant spells. The purple ball of light exploded on the hawk-billed lizard that was sprinting at high speed, without causing much damage.
Kaiba heard Alvin's reminder and ran towards the mountain wall with long strides. Alvin couldn't understand Kaiba's behavior. Why was he running towards death?
Seeing Kaiba fleeing, the monster that wanted revenge became more and more eager to pursue Kaiba, and bit into the air behind Kaiba, as if the air was filled with Kaiba's flesh and blood.
What was thrilling to watch was that the bloody mouth almost bit Kaiba's neck several times. Alvin flew up in the air and bombarded the crazy falcon-billed lizard, but he only managed to drag it away. It was half a body slower.
When he reached the bottom of the mountain wall, Kaiba continued to run up the mountain. However, the mountains in Traledi were extremely steep. After only two or three steps up the mountain, his whole body was almost over.
However, Kaiba did not panic, as if he was expecting it.
The monster chased him all the way up, but he couldn't control his body well, and it turned over and fell on all fours.
At this time, Kaiba took the last step, flipped in the air, shot a barb, and shouted: "Mountains and seas will never look back!"
His roar attracted the monsters and martial artists who were fighting fiercely in the field. Both sides stopped and froze in place, looking at Kaiba.
Alvin was naturally familiar with this spear. He had experienced the power of this domineering spear in the Pillow Sword Club, but he didn't know how Kaiba learned this technique.
Because Kaiba's killing gun was a reverse thrust in the air, it lacked the action of taking three steps back to retract the gun and gather momentum. With the force of going down, the momentum was comparable to that of the gunman in the pillow sword meeting.
The emphasis of this move is to move forward without any distractions and to unite the man and the gun.
Kaiba's gun has acquired three of them, and it possesses both form and spirit. Everyone can't help but marvel at it and yearn for it. For a moment, they forget that they are in a dangerous situation surrounded by monsters.
Before the monster could turn around, the sharp spear point pierced its heart, nailing it firmly to the dead leaves and frozen soil.
For a while, the falcon-billed lizards kept wailing. This long and mournful cry echoed in the Guangmiao Mountains, which made people secretly shocked. It seemed that the death of two companions in succession caused them to panic, and they looked at Kaiba with a look of fear.
Originally, the two sides were fighting back and forth, but now the morale of the monster side has hit rock bottom, and some have already hesitated, wanting to retreat. As for the mercenary group, Kaiba picked out two monsters in a row, and their morale was at a high level.
"Langyun, they are about to run away, all kinds of ice are slowly being released." Upon seeing this, Alvin yelled at the mage team on the hillside.
Lai Wu understood that Alvin wanted to annihilate all these monsters, and laughed and scolded, "This guy is quite greedy, but it suits my purpose."
"Brothers, follow me, don't let any of them escape." Laiwu immediately gave the order, and the martial arts armed with crossbows drew the daggers behind their backs and immediately joined the melee battlefield.
These falcon-billed lizards were originally mourning the death of their companions, but seeing this round of charges, they were immediately in chaos. Some had already begun to retreat, and some were still stuck in the battle group.
Alvin flew directly behind them and chanted high-level magic. The wind and snow began to blow heavily at the entrance of the dry forest, and frost began to rise. Langyun also arrived with the mage team.
"Hey, don't block the entire road." Alvin reminded loudly, "Just leave a hole for them to escape."
"Your Highness, why don't you catch them all? Now we are in full swing." Lang Yun asked in a low voice in surprise.
"These monsters are difficult to deal with. If we block their hope of survival, they will definitely fight to the death with us. Now they are just frightened by Kaiba's few shots. If they really fight, how can we beat these guns and swords?" The monster that entered." Alvin explained while looking at the battle situation.
"Your Highness is still thoughtful." Langyun didn't forget to flatter him at this time.
A dozen monsters escaped from the gap in the snow and ice wall, turned around and looked back at their friends who were still fighting hard, and hissed several times like shouts. The monsters who had not yet escaped heard the shouts and looked towards the gap, wanting to escape from here. However, they were already trapped in Kaiba's spear formation. Now there were more than one hundred to twenty mercenaries on the field. A group of five or six people can surround a monster.
These besieged monsters wanted to retreat, but they wanted to fight to the death but were distracted by their escaped companions. Although they are still struggling due to their rough skin and thick flesh, Laiwu and Kaiba's tactics are very clumsy.
The martial artist holding a spear holds the gun and shield to prevent the monsters from moving rashly, while the agile martial artist like Qiao Zhi, a killer like Qiao Zhi, frantically cuts the ankles of the monsters when they are distracted to look at the gap. As soon as the monster felt pain and wanted to flick its tail, the spear martial artists surrounding the outer circle were already prepared and immediately dispersed.
After dozens of minutes, the two dozen or so besieged falcon-billed lizards all suffered large and small injuries on their legs. Some of them were moaning and unable to stand.
Alvin took one look at the situation, and all that was left was to wait for Laiwu and the others to kill these monsters bit by bit. The dozen or so monsters that escaped could no longer stand the misery of their companions falling one after another, so they howled a few times in farewell and ran into the withered forest.
"They won't go to move reinforcements, will they?" Lang Yun looked into the depths of the dry forest and asked worriedly.
"It's possible." Alvin frowned and said, "Hurry up and lead these mages to solve the battle."
Langyun followed the order and found that Alvin was the only one left on the ice wall.
The finishing work also took some time, but with the addition of the magician and various negative states, these more than twenty falcon-billed lizards were finally completely killed.
Laiwu and Kaiba did not forget to stand on the monster's corpse and pose in two coquettish ways. Many people in the mercenary group had never fought against monsters before. They didn't expect to follow the "Four Young Masters" and kill so many monsters before they even reached the Maine front line. Their excitement and pride were palpable.
Just as everyone was immersed in the joy of defeating the monster, the mountains shook behind Alvin, followed by a long roar that resounded through the sky. How could this sound and movement sound like a dragon?
Accompanied by several roars that followed one after another, everyone was stunned for a moment and stared blankly at the depths of the mountains.
"What a bullshit!" Alvin and Lai Wu were still the two most sensible ones, and they shouted out almost at the same time.
"Laiwu, don't forget to bring these monsters with you." Alvin shouted to Laiwu.
"I know, is there anyone more greedy than you, Alvin?" Lai Wu cursed, and then ordered everyone to speed up and drag the more than 20 monsters out of the valley.
However, the monster, which was two people tall, was much heavier than expected, and it was quite difficult for four or five strong men to carry it. Langyun and the mages used the levitation spell on the corpse of the monster, but it had almost no effect. The outer scales of the falcon-billed lizard were made of who knows what, and they could always deflect the magic.
Alvin stared closely into the depths of the dead forest, listening to the roaring sounds getting closer and closer, and flocks of birds scurrying away in panic. Looking at this posture, he thought there was going to be an earthquake.
Amidst the deafening roars, several falcon-billed lizards rushed out from the dry forest, and then a mad dragon with flames all over its body flashed out from behind a mountain, with a burnt falcon-billed lizard in its mouth. .
"Aren't these the falcon-billed lizards that escaped just now?" Alvin thought in surprise, "Why did I encounter this fire dragon just after I ran out?"
Alvin watched these monsters dash towards him decisively, and then he understood the meaning of those farewell howls just now, "It turns out they wanted to attract the fire dragon and die with us."
"It's so clever that I was fooled by my cleverness." Alvin sighed bitterly, "I really shouldn't have let them out."
Fortunately, Laiwu's movements were quite swift, and half of the monsters had already been dragged out of the entrance of the mountain.
"Laiwu, move faster!" Alvin roared at Laiwu, who was still directing the men to carry it, and flew into the air. "I'll find a way to drag this fire dragon for a while first."
"Come back! You don't want your life." Lai Wu cursed as he looked at the figure flying up on the ice wall.
"You are really looking for death." Kaiba frowned and cursed, and then shouted to everyone around him: "Hurry up, hurry up."
The fire dragon's wings were spread out, a gust of wind rose up, and its body had fallen behind the falcon-billed lizards. With a roar of the dragon, a pillar of flame spurted out, and the monsters that were still running on the path of the dragon's flames were immediately burned to black. carbon.
The ice wall that had just been built collapsed instantly after being struck by the dragon flames, and a charred road was burned alive under the dragon flames. The air was filled with the smell of burnt fallen leaves and twigs, mixed with a weird smell of tallow, presumably from those over-roasted falcon-billed lizards.
Once the ice wall was broken, the fire dragon naturally discovered the traces of the mercenary group. The dragon's eyes widened immediately, and it was obviously interested. It flapped its wings excitedly and kicked its feet on the ground, as if it was about to attack.
If it comes to fighting a falcon-billed lizard that is two or three people tall, humans can still restrain their inner fear. But looking at the giant dragon the size of a mountain, the only thought left was to escape.
However, everyone in the mercenary group saw that Laiwu did not give an order and did not dare to escape privately. Although their legs were shaking with fear and they wet their pants, they still moved the remaining monsters tremblingly.
Alvin's men instantly fired magic bullets. The fire dragon, which was originally glaring at the mercenary group, was attracted by these tickles. Everyone on Laiwu's side breathed a sigh of relief.
"Quick, don't be so stupid, hurry up!" Laiwu looked around at everyone and cursed, and he started to help move it.
The bursts of dragon roar just now caused the snow on the mountain tops to collapse. Many mountains were already filled with white smoke and roaring. It was obvious that an avalanche was coming.
Alvin led the fire dragon towards the depths of the mountains. Fortunately, the fire dragon could only fly a short distance after flapping its wings a few times, and most of the time it could only run by pawing the ground with its two claws. But even so, the speed was so fast that Alvin didn't dare to relax. He relied on the splitting of the sky after instant magic to barely avoid being chased by the fire dragon.
Obviously the fire dragon was angered by this vivid magician. He stopped and spit out dragon flames at Alvin. The hot dragon flames that could directly burn people exploded around Alvin. The temperature was comparable to that of Haven Street. Shang Lanyin's fire rain was much higher, and the clumps of snow fell into the dragon flames and were directly burned into water vapor.
Even in the midst of the ice and snow, Alvin's robe was burned in several places, and the fire at the collar had reached the ends of his hair, but he couldn't spare his hands to put out the fire. He had no choice but to fly to a cliff somewhere and rub against the perennial snow to extinguish the fire on his body.
"It's not even touched by fire, but my clothes are already on fire. If I were hit by this dragon flame, wouldn't my life be dead on the spot?" Alvin thought to himself as he gasped for air.
At this time, the avalanche became more and more violent. Looking around, in the vast Miao Mountains, countless pieces of snow are peeling off and rolling, the sky and the earth are already filled with white smoke, and snow waterfalls are connected.
Even the fire dragon was frightened by the earth-shaking force. After a quick glance at the cunning magician, he climbed up the saddle to a raised ridge and hurriedly ran deeper into the mountains. go.
Alvin did not dare to stay in the low place that was about to be buried by the heavy snow. He floated into the air and flew away from the mountains. The wide dry forest along the way was already buried by the heavy snow.
The snow will not stop until it reaches the entrance of the valley.
Alvin was completely relieved when he saw the people staggering outside the mountain. When he landed on the ground, his feet were weak and he almost lost his balance.
When everyone saw that the deputy leader was back, they cheered.
"Holy shit, I really admire you now." Lai Wu ran up and cursed, "As for, you have to fight the fire dragon for a few monsters? Didn't you say you only need to get one or two of these things from the beginning? Yes."
"He may think he is Master Piro or Feiyue, and he easily picks off a dragon." Kaiba joked when he saw that Alvin was fine.
"You're the one who taught me how to take advantage of it. It would be a pity not to get those dead monsters back." Alvin smiled miserably, "Besides, you saw it too, this falcon-billed lizard is full of Green scales are very durable. If you cut them off and make dozens of pieces of scale armor, the combat effectiveness of our mercenary group will increase a lot."
"There's something wrong." Although it made sense to hear what he said, Laiwu still cursed.
"Oh, if I don't lure the fire dragon away, I'm afraid it will chase us and kill us all the way. There is no way." Alvin sighed and began to dust away the burnt pieces of clothing on his body.
Lang Yun, who had not dared to speak, helped Alvin dust himself off.
"This is also my fault. I let the dozen or so of them run out in the beginning, otherwise nothing would have happened to the fire dragon." Alvin sighed, "I was afraid that if they were blocked, they would have to fight for their lives with us. However, Who would have thought that these monsters would use themselves as bait to attract the fire dragon after they ran out?"
"Huh? I thought they were just unlucky. They escaped from the wolf's den and entered the dragon's mouth." Kaiba said strangely.
"No, I was close at the time and could see clearly. They looked like they were just trying to attract the fire dragon and die with us." Alvin shook his head.
"Do these monsters still have such intelligence?" Kaiba asked with a questioning look on his face.
"Don't tell me, it's really possible." Laiwu thought for a moment and said, "Think about it, if the monsters were easy to deal with, would it be necessary for Prince Resa to send so many elites to guard the south side of the Traledi Mountains every year? The Orthodox Church also sent many mages to suppress them, I think these monsters are extraordinary."
"I'm too lazy to worry about this. Let's transport these monsters back to the camp first." Alvin grabbed a handful of snow from the mountain behind him and washed his face. "I feel like I smell like barbecue."
