Chapter 177 Dragon Tail Evolution
"Samantha, Therese, do you yearn for battle?"
Garus looked at the red dragon and the white dragon.
All dragons love to fight, and without any hesitation, both nodded immediately.
“I suspect the Bloodhoof Clan is deliberately feigning weakness to mislead us, so let’s not rush to attack their main base,” Garros said. “You will each take your followers and launch a surprise attack on the Bloodhoof Clan’s mines and ranches.”
Since the Minotaur has chosen to escape and show weakness.
Galos then decided to press forward step by step.
We'll see if the Bloodhoof clan continues to feign ignorance and deceive, or if they can no longer tolerate the plundering of their resources and begin to fight back.
"Samantha, you lead the dragon horde to attack the ranch."
"Therese, you led the Crimson Cavalry's retinue to raid the mine."
Galos gave more specific instructions.
Upon hearing his words, the red dragon raised its head and spat out wisps of flame: "I will make those horned reptiles wail in the flames."
The white dragon spread its enormous wings: "I will freeze them into ice blocks."
The fairy dragon suddenly appeared out of nowhere and said with great seriousness, "I'll scare them to death."
“No, you have a more arduous task—to guard Dragon Valley.” Galos’s serious and earnest demeanor made the fairy dragon feel valued, so she tightened her little face and said, “Vera promises to scare away all the monsters that try to attack Dragon Valley.”
Immediately afterwards, the red dragon excitedly led the flock of flying dragons, set off from Dragon Valley, and disappeared into the horizon.
White Dragon, along with his swift Crimson Iron Cavalry, began their march toward the Bloodhoof Clan's mines.
Garus watched them leave, opened the lid of the black oil barrel, dipped the tip of his tail into the black oil, and then gently licked it.
Hiss—it felt like a line of fire was shooting down my throat into my abdomen.
Flames spewed from Galus's nostrils, and he felt that the 95% pure black oil was indeed better than anything he had drunk before.
It absorbs quickly, provides ample energy, and has a smaller workload.
Resisting the urge to gulp down 95% black oil, Galos opened his mouth wide and put the entire barrel of black oil into his mouth.
He didn't bite it, but the black oil barrel disappeared in the blink of an eye.
At the base of one of the red iron dragon's fangs, there appears to be a tooth ring that is shining with a crystalline luster. However, it is not a tooth ring, but a ring that Garros has put on his tooth.
It's a spatial ring given to me by Nick, capable of changing size.
It can also be worn on the dragon's claw.
However, in the heat of battle, the dragon claws, which were placed on the most frequently attacked parts of the body, were easily damaged, so Garus placed them on his teeth.
His stomach cavity has limited space.
Moreover, each time it needs to be ruminated, which takes a certain amount of time depending on the size of the item, so it's not as quick as taking it from a spatial ring.
The black oil drum was put away.
Having reached his peak physical condition in the past few days, Galos did not continue to rest.
He used the large anvil that Samantha had made to sharpen his wings and tail, making the razor-sharp scales and wing bones even sharper.
Galos had undergone this kind of ordeal many times.
The wings showed no evolutionary response.
However, he felt something was off about his tail, especially the scales on both sides, which were becoming denser, overlapping and bulging outwards slightly, as if they were evolving into the shape of a blade, but it was only the beginning and not yet complete.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
The dragon's tail and wings rubbed and polished against the iron felt, accompanied by a piercing sound and bursts of sparks.
Not long after.
Bloodhoof Clan, Heavy Armored Rhinoceros Ranch.
The sunlight lazily spilled onto the grass.
The minotaur guards stood watch around the perimeter, vigilant for any threats in their surroundings.
Nearly a hundred armored rhinoceroses were leisurely grazing on the hardy grass, their heavy bodies leaving footprints on the ground. Their thick, black hides gleamed with a metallic sheen in the sunlight, and their horns occasionally brushed against the bushes, knocking down a few ripe berries.
Several young rhinoceroses playfully butted against each other, making a dull "thump-thump" sound.
One of the minotaur chieftains of the Bloodhoof clan, shaman Grino, is collecting dung from a herd of rhinoceroses.
Several armored rhinoceroses have been unusually lethargic and even somewhat weak lately. Greeno can determine whether they are sick or suffering from other causes by examining their feces.
Greeno's thick fingers twirled a few undigested grass stalks, his thick eyebrows furrowing into a knot.
The feces contained abnormal mucus, indicating that three or four female rhinoceroses had digestive problems.
"Go and get some wormwood."
Just as Greeno looked up to give instructions to his assistant, he suddenly heard the terrified scream of a young rhinoceros.
The sky suddenly darkened.
Twelve figures tore through the clouds, led by the red dragon Samantha and the flying dragon leader Tasha. They spread their enormous wings, casting deep shadows on the ground that enveloped the rhinoceros herd and the minotaurs.
"Enemy attack! Light the signal fires!"
The shaman's shouts were drowned out by the rhinoceros herd's commotion.
The hurricane created by the red dragon's dive flattened the grass. She flew low over it, exhaling a fiery dragon breath. Instead of attacking the minotaur guards first, she rushed towards the rhinoceros herd. The dragon breath landed on the heavily armored rhinoceroses, turning their black hides crimson, like molten iron.
One after another, the flying dragons followed the red dragon's attack, spitting out corrosive acid.
The attacked rhinoceros herd scattered, and the dragon herd did not pursue them.
The heavy armored rhinoceros's massive body crushed the earth with unstoppable force. The minotaur guards tried to stop it, but they were all thrown back by the force of the blow.
"Deal with the evil dragon first!"
Greeno's eyes were bloodshot as he gave the order.
The elite minotaurs no longer hindered the rhinoceros herd, but kept their eyes fixed on the approaching dragon.
They threw the short spears they carried with them at the flying dragon and the red dragon.
Tasha the dragon deftly flapped her wings, dodging the short spears, and swooped down. Her powerful hind legs grabbed a minotaur elite, lifting him into the air. Her tail stinger pierced through the gaps in his armor, injecting poison, before flinging him into other minotaurs.
The largest number of short spears were fired at Samantha.
Samantha dodged most of them, using the remaining tail whips or claw strikes to knock them down.
But as she swooped down and knocked away several minotaur guards, a short spear arrived silently and with lightning speed, piercing her rune-enhanced scales and embedding itself in her flesh.
Baring her fangs, Samantha turned her head and saw a female minotaur who was fully armed and exceptionally tall.
She carried a long spear in her hand, with rows of short spears wrapped around her waist, and her body radiated powerful magical energy, indicating a high level of life force.
The minotaur warrior raised his hoof and stomped hard on the ground.
The ground cracked instantly, and she charged toward Samantha like a cannonball, her spear imbued with magical energy, locking onto Samantha's wing membrane.
call!
The red dragon flapped its wings, gaining altitude, and simultaneously breathed its dragon breath at the minotaur warrior, forcing him to dodge and retreat to the ground.
Under Garus's influence, the red dragon gradually realized its own advantages and, unlike other reckless young dragons, would not fight recklessly and abandon flight to land on the ground.
"Crawlers, the sky is not your domain."
Flames surged between the red dragon's teeth as it spoke.
At this moment, the shaman Grino knelt on the ground, his hands pressed tightly against the ground, and the earth in front of him cracked open.
A giant totem pole rises from the center of the ranch.
"Take off!"
Tasha's pupils contracted slightly, and she hissed.
The next second, the totem pole unleashed a chain of lightning, sweeping towards the dragons. However, thanks to the dragon leader's advance warning, most of the dragons took off first, escaping the range of the lightning chain's attack.
A few of those hit experienced numbness in their bodies, and their movements became sluggish.
The minotaur spearmen concentrated their attack, raining down short spears on the dragons, creating bloody holes in their bodies. After sustaining some injuries, the dragons took to the air and escaped the totem pole's attack range.
"The Bloodhoof clan of Totem Pole is just as Garros thought; they are extraordinary."
Ordinary shamans cannot create something like this.
"However, I also have some good stuff."
Samantha grinned, ran her hand across the scales on her neck, took out three red orbs, and then smashed them into the totem pole.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The lightning bolts swept across two totem poles, detonating them in mid-air, while another landed to the right of the totem pole, all creating deafening explosions and towering flames.
The runes engraved on the totem pole began to flash, forming a magical shield that paused the lightning chain attacks.
"Dragons, attack!"
Samantha kept throwing high-explosive flame orbs at the totem pole to interfere with it. These orbs had a longer attack range than dragon breath and were disposable, so they didn't consume Samantha's magic power.
The swarm of dragons continued their attack under her cover.
After a barrage of bombardments, the totem pole cracked, and the runes lost their luster.
The red dragon's high-explosive flame orbs were exhausted, and it once again swooped down to the ground to attack together with the flock of wyverns.
As time goes by.
As the minotaurs counterattacked, the increasingly wounded dragons began to retreat, leaving behind a scene of carnage and the corpses of many minotaur guards.
