Chapter 175: Ektoz eating the grass next to the nest
There's one place you have to pass to get to Grimbaatar, and that's the Dragon's Throat Gate, which is stuck on the way to the cursed city.
After successfully subduing Pellision, Leo and the others spent a day resting before continuing their journey, crossing the Greenbelt Meadows and Dinosaur Ridge, where the Dragon's Throat Gate was already in sight.
The reason why it took a day to rest was not only to give the people who had taken a dragon blood bath time to absorb and clean the dragon blood on their bodies, but more importantly, Leo needed time to treat Pelicion's injuries.
The red dragon was too badly injured, and if it was not treated in time, it was easy to die, and Leo, who didn't want to let his hard work go to waste, certainly couldn't watch this new powerful fighter end up here. His paladin clone kept healing the red dragon's wounds with holy light, and even performed a holy healing spell on Pelision before the time limit for the clone's existence expired, but this still did not make the red dragon heal.
If a powerful healing skill such as the Holy Healing Technique is used on a person, then it will definitely cure one better. But it is not enough to put it on the dragon, after all, the body of the dragon is too huge compared to humans, and the holy light that can bathe the whole body of humans is just a small spot of light for the dragon. As a last resort, Leo had to let the troops stay where they were for a day, and only continued on the road the next day after using the paladin clone to heal the red dragon again.
Pelicion is very reputable, after Leo healed the wounds on its body, the red dragon did not turn his face and deny it like an untrustworthy villain, it used a secret method to contact the clan and sent the news about Valastaz and then went on the road with Leo, at this time this red dragon became Leo's substitute mount.
Riding a dragon, this is something that Leo never thought of before he set off from Dammod, sitting on the back of Pelision, enjoying the adoring gazes of the soldiers below, and he called it a beauty in his heart.
The only fly in the ointment is that the red dragon of Pelicion refuses to sit on his back by anyone but him, and Leo can only express his helplessness about this. After making a mechanical squirrel for Waitis and making the elf huntress happy, he finally solved a small problem.
"Lao Pei, there is the dragon throat gate in front, I said what is going on there, why are there so many dragons?" Leo, who was riding on the back of the red dragon, frowned, the crow he had sent earlier had brought it bad news.
Old Pei, naturally, is the new name of Pelicion.
Pelision was unfazed by Leo referring to himself as the Old Pe, but after someone explained that it was a friendly term for a close partner, Red Dragon reluctantly accepted.
I don't know what kind of conspiracy and trickery human beings want to do, but I actually let an epic paladin dress up as a warlock of the legendary realm, a paladin who believes in the power of holy light and a warlock who studies the power of darkness, such an identity contrast is really unimaginable. Thinking of the endless intrigues of the human race, Pelision couldn't help but mourn for the one of his fellow people who was about to fight, and it was not a good thing to be targeted by humans. A psychology called schadenfreude rises from the heart of the red dragon.
"It's not a dragonman, it's just a half-dragon." Pellision replied, mocking on his face, "A little game played by a faint dragon named Ektoz with a group of orcs. β
Ektoz, isn't this one of the Four Dragons of Trials? Leo tugged his chin lightly, the Dragonbone Trial was a fairly classic series of quests, and the goal was the Lair Key of the Black Dragon Princess of the Dust Swamp.
At the mention of the Black Dragon Princess, Leo suddenly realized that he had overlooked something, and just as he was about to think about it, Pelicion's words interrupted his train of thought.
"Leo, you need to deal with Ektoz, you know, my body is still a little weak."
It's hard to get the dragon to admit that it's inferior to so-and-so. However, if this so-and-so is also a dragon, the difficulty factor will be much smaller, in fact, Pelision himself knows very well that it is no match for Ektoz even in its heyday.
This old Pei really loves face, don't you know that Ektoz, who is also a red dragon, is stronger than you? Leo didn't bother to expose Pelicion, he took out a blood-red sword on his body, and this great sword was the bamboo pole he knocked out of Pelicion's hand - the epic weapon Blood Blade.
Of course, Leo would never admit to extortion, and in his words it was just a weapon borrowed from Pelision in order to win the upcoming battle.
"Don't worry, Lao Pei, are we afraid that we won't be able to get an Ektoz together?" Leo carried the blood blade, and the cow said coaxingly.
Pelicion was confident in Leo's words, and had an epic paladin as his backing, as long as he didn't make mistakes in battle, even if he traded injuries for hard consumption, he could wear out Ektoz to death. Ektoz, you soul wait, I'll see how you'll die this time. I will repay you for all the humiliation you have given me before.
Can you afford a dragon without a daddy?
Leo got a new message from Pellision: "Old Pe, do you mean that these half-dragons were made up by Ektoz, and that it has such great ability?" β
"If it was made out of thin air, of course Ektoz didn't have that much ability, but these orcs all had a trace of dragon blood power in their bodies, and it just needed to stimulate them. However, this method has a big drawback, the brains of the half-dragon people who are forcibly stimulated are not very good, and their lifespan will be shortened a lot. β
It turns out that this is the case, after the dragon-throated orcs who could not be half-dragonized were stimulated by the power of the bloodline by Ektoz, it was equivalent to taking a certain drug in a martial arts novel, although they lived with great strength, but the price paid was expensive, or it was like practicing the exercises, such as ...... Ouyang Feng, the western poison who was fooled by Sister Rong!
"The strength of the half-dragons is not weak, although they are not as strong as the powerhouses of the Legendary Realm, but the difference is not big, there are hundreds of half-dragons here at the Dragon Throat Gate, it really worries me. Lao Pei, is there any solution to it? β
Looking at the rows of half-dragons, Leo was very worried, he had seen the strength of Tug after transforming into half-dragons, it was really not something that the soldiers below could stop.
Pelicion was surprised: "Worried? Why worry? The defense of this group of soldiers under your command after bathing in my blood is no worse than that of this group of half-dragons, and they have sophisticated weapons and equipment in hand, so they can surround them and beat them to death when the time comes. β
Belch? Leo scratched his face, he was a little embarrassed, the effect of dragon's blood is really so good? It's a pity that after reaching the legendary realm, the dragon's blood strengthens the body very little, otherwise I really want to find an opportunity to ask Lao Pei for some blood to take a bath or something.
Red Dragon is angry at Leo's performance.
"Don't doubt the effect of dragon's blood, in fact, the effect of dragon's blood is far from what you think. If these soldiers are loyal to you, as long as you get enough dragon blood, you can even build them into powerhouses in the Legendary Realm, but I'm afraid you don't have the ability to do so. β
"That's right......" Leo's gaze kept roaming over Pellision, causing the red dragon to shudder several times.
"Don't let you hit my idea!" Pelicion roared in exasperation, as if he had a heart to embolden himself.
Leo looked at me like this: "Lao Pei, we are partners, how can I fight your idea?" Am I that kind of person? Wait until Ektoz's blood is collected for me. β
Hearing that dragon blood could forcibly build such a powerful army, Leo was not calm. It seems that there will be more trouble with the dragon in the future.
Pelicion's eyes rolled, and his next words confirmed one thingβwhen it came to rectifying their own kind, intelligent creatures were always the best.
"If you want to collect enough dragon blood, I don't recommend that you kill Ektoz, wouldn't it be better to imprison it and provide dragon blood all the time?"
Uh, imprison a dragon to keep supplying yourself with dragon blood!
Leo blinked, this guy is so evil, how do I feel that I am so pure compared to him?
"That's a good idea, are you sure it's going to work?"
Pelicion again despised Leo: "Why doesn't it work? Just pull the soul of Ektoz out of its body, isn't it? Aren't you a warlock, don't say you want me to teach you if you want to suck souls. β
The red dragon's Leo pondered and sucked the soul of a giant dragon, this is a big project, and it is impossible to succeed without ten or twenty days of work. And because the dragon's soul is too strong, it can only be extracted part by part, and in the end, it is only a bunch of soul fragments, and it is impossible for a complete dragon soul to appear. But what he wants is not a complete dragon soul, but a dragon blood machine, so it doesn't matter.
Eventually, Leo came to a conclusion: the viable surname is big!
The premise is that he beats Ektoz to the brink, and ensures that the dragon is powerless to resist during the time of the soul extraction. On this note, Leo set his sights on Pellision.
The latter smiled sinisterly, patted his chest and assured his human companion: "Leo, we are partners, don't worry, I promise that Ektoz will always be obedient." β
me, is this guy really a dragon? The more Leo looked, the more he felt that Pelicion looked like a demon in dragon skin.
"I said, old Pei, what is the trouble between Ektoz and you, did he give you ...... Uh-huh? I didn't expect you dragons to like to play this tune too. β
Pelision was stunned at first, then furious: "Don't speculate on our dragons with your human sordid minds, that guy from Ektoz is just a scoundrel who loots everywhere with his might, uh...... I've only bet with him a few times and lost. β
Well, it's clear, it turned out that he was robbed by a certain dragon. Looking at Pelicion's annoyed appearance, it seems that it has been robbed more than once, no wonder it is so ruthless against its own kind.
In fact, robbery is still a very promising thing, but rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, and you rob the neighbors around you, this is your mistake.
I ought to thank you, Ektoz, for Pelision would have been so devastating in helping me deal with you? In order to win the heart of Pelision, the new thug, for the endless precious dragon blood, the dragon blood maker is up to you.
