Chapter 678: Mistakes
As for Cross's previous plan to use the Trial Scroll as bait, it is even more impossible to obtain benefits from the aliens, even if the aliens are willing to pay enough price, it is impossible for Cross to hand over the controller of the black dragon body.
Only then did Cross understand that Augusta's advantage was not so easy to take advantage of, and what Cross did not know was that compared with Augusta's integrity, his shrewdness was more deeply rooted in the hearts of the mainlanders, and even the Empire and the Holy See had never taken any advantage of his dealings with him.
"Clever choice. Augusta glanced at Cross approvingly, "There are many restrictions on the control of the black dragon's body by this scroll, first of all, if you want to activate the control rune on the scroll, someone must have already passed the first nine levels of the Heart of Defense No. 1; secondly, you can only give two orders to the black dragon's body through the trial scroll; third, due to the conditions, the black dragon body can only exert the original strength of Dilknight at most, and it is no problem to deal with the general Sanctuary, but if you want to deal with the Mithril Sanctuary, I am afraid there is no hope of winning." ”
"You haven't said how to activate the Control Rune. Cross cautioned.
"After someone successfully clears the first nine levels, the control rune is automatically activated. Augusta glanced at Cross with pity, and could not have imagined that Count Delacoural was shrewd, and in the end he chose such a foolish fellow to guard the castle for him.
"By the way, if you want to use the Trials Scroll, just unfold it. Augusta looked at Cross and couldn't help but remind him in a friendly way. However, Kross now wants to start the trial scroll is also wishful thinking, and he can't do it without the strength of the twelfth level.
In fact, Augusta left Kroes with a two-choice option, if Cross insisted on waiting until someone cleared the ninth level and used the Trial Scroll to control the black dragon's body, then the original function of the Trial Scroll to teleport to the Trial Space would be equivalent to non-existence. After all, in Augusta's design, the trial space and the real game of the ninth level are one, and if someone passes the first nine levels, then the trial space must have been destroyed.
If the Trial Scroll had been used before that, the runes that controlled the black dragon's body would naturally disappear as the Trial Scroll was damaged.
"Thanks for the reminder. Cross knew Augusta's hints but was afraid to speak out, and he swore that he would never deal with such a scheming creature again.
"Alas~" Looking at the irrepressible anger that flashed in Kroos' eyes from time to time, Augusta shook his head, Kroos didn't understand that in fact, the most precious point of this trial scroll was not at all the two aspects that Cross was concerned about, but the function of actively activating the Heart of Defense No. 1.
If he knew the true power of the Heart of Defense One, he would understand that the so-called Trial Scroll and Control Rune were just two chicken functions.
"I've done everything I need to do, so do it yourself. Seeing Cross's attitude, Augusta waved his hand and drove away without looking back.
Cross, who was racking his brains about how to politely let Augusta leave, was both sudden and delighted, and he was afraid that Augusta would not leave here. Unexpectedly, Augusta really kept his word, and he didn't stay here for a minute.
After successfully sending off such a god, the ecstatic Cross didn't notice that Augusta was leaving, and whispered a few words in his mouth: "This feeling of being driven by prophecy is really uncomfortable, and you will have to rely on yourself in the future!"
......
"Are you saying that the Black Dragon should only be able to exert thirty percent of its strength, and why is this happening now?" Elfie shouted in a gaffe, almost as if he wanted to strangle Kenobi.
Robert X told Alfie the original story of the series of transactions that Augusta had made with the Earl and Cross, in addition to proving to him that the soul of the black dragon had been extracted more than two thousand years ago, the point was that according to Augusta's plan, the unconscious black dragon could only exert thirty percent of its strength at most.
"If the black dragon's body is automatically awakened by you through a real game, it will only be able to exert thirty percent of its strength at most. It's a pity that the black dragon's body is not passively activated, but actively awakened, and it was awakened before you passed the level. So we will face a black dragon in peak form. Robert X explains the difference.
"Doesn't Kenobi claim to be the last resort, and why is there such a big flaw?" Alfie asked in a skeptical voice, thinking that it was all a conspiracy of Kenobi's cunning fellow.
"Soul Resurrection Curse. Robert X's simple answer immediately made Alfie feel weak, as far as he knew, it seemed that only Celent could use the Require Charm.
"Does this have anything to do with Celrant?" Alfie's voice lowered.
"Not long ago, in the castle dungeon, the priest named Celent used a reinvenant charm, but unfortunately all the fluctuations of the reinvention charm were absorbed by the black dragon's body in the depths of the castle. Although the power of the Soul Restoration Spell was not enough to completely recall the soul of the black dragon, it awakened the instinct of the black dragon, the instinct to fight. Robert X's answer sent chills down Alfie's body, and if he remembered correctly, Sellant had used the Reinvention Charm to resurrect him.
Alfi never imagined that the source of this mistake would be on him!
"What about the control runes? The control runes on the trial scrolls should work against the black dragon, right?" Alfie grabbed at a straw.
"It's a pity that due to the tight time at that time, the arrangement made by the master was only effective for the unconscious black dragon body, like the current situation, even if there is a control rune left by the master, I am afraid it will be difficult to control the black dragon that has awakened the battle instinct. And since Cross's death, no one knows where he hid the Trial Scroll. Robert X's calm answer gave Alfie another blow, knowing that he would kill Cross at that time, and it was too late to say anything.
In the first few levels, Alfie can be said to have exhausted the mechanism, so that they have come to the present smoothly, but I didn't expect that all the opportunistic behaviors before would directly cause a super big trouble in the end, the kind of super problem that cannot be solved even if all the strength of the team is gathered!
Thinking of this, Alfie had a feeling of wanting to cry without tears, no matter how he drew in his heart, the combat power at hand was extremely limited, taking the Sanctuary as an example, only Leni and Kofren who had not yet arrived and Koco who had just been promoted, Rebecca and Hayata were still in the stage of pseudo-Sanctuary, and as for the troll warriors and old dwarfs, they had not even touched the edge of the Sanctuary.
Even such a team with uneven strength still wants to defeat the Black Dragon Deer Knight, one of the five powerhouses? What's more, Robert X analyzed it very clearly, and now this state of having no soul and acting completely on combat instinct is the time when the Black Dragon is the strongest.
