Chapter 319 Magic Academy (22) - Luring the Dragon into the Trap
After Judy told Xingchen about Ning Shu's plan, Xingchen indeed remained silent, and her expression was extremely unpleasant.
Judy thought to herself, "Sure enough, Star will definitely refuse. Isn't this just making things difficult for him?"
Unexpectedly, Xingchen's answer after the silence was—yes!
She had to admire Ning Shu's prediction; was this the power of a prophet?
Ning Shucai hadn't made any predictions. All she knew was that for players, any method was acceptable as long as the mission could be completed.
Xingchen was right, mainly because he didn't have a good solution. The dungeon was about to end, and he had no other choice.
The dragon could easily take down one person, and Owen, who was beaten without any chance to fight back, cursed inwardly.
What are they all doing? They agreed to be the vanguard and lead the dragon into the trap they had set up.
But I can't handle this myself, shouldn't they come up and help? Why are they hiding in the back?
He even doubted whether he had been scammed, and just when he was about to give up, he suddenly noticed a female dragon appearing nearby.
How did he know it was a female dragon? Because the other party was really flamboyant.
This female dragon has only one head and is smaller than the demon dragon. Her eyelashes are long and curly, and she is currently winking at the demon dragon, which is commonly known as—electrifying.
Owen had no idea where this female dragon came from, or why she was acting so frivolous. Even as a human, he found her incredibly lewd.
He noticed that the dragon had slowed its attacks on him, and when he looked over there, good heavens, the dragon's three heads were fighting.
After watching the commotion for a while, Irving finally figured out the reason behind it.
It seemed that one of the heads was indifferent to the mother dragon, but the other two heads kept staring at her, their eyes shining, their pupils almost turning into hearts.
They tried to chase after the mother dragon, but the third head only wanted to deal with Owen and refused, so the three heads started fighting.
The dragon's wings flapping in the air slowed down, and it finally stopped on the ground, focusing on fighting.
Irving: "..."
It's amazing that such a thing can make them fight. He glanced at the mother dragon and noticed that she was making even more antics.
At this time... to seduce the dragon? What is it thinking?
Suddenly, Owen seemed to have thought of something. He felt that this female dragon might be... *chuckle*, he couldn't help but laugh.
The main reason was that he couldn't help himself when he thought about how the serious-looking Xingchen would do such a thing.
The key point is that the other party is a completely straight man. How could he do something like this—seduce a male dragon? And do it in such a provocative and flirtatious way?
Kyrie Irving's smile was harder to suppress than an AK's; he didn't mean to, but he just couldn't hold it in.
On the dragon's side, the outcome was quickly decided; two against one, the majority won.
The two victorious heads flapped their wings and flew towards the mother dragon.
When the mother dragon saw the demon dragon approaching, she stopped her preening and flapped her wings, heading in one direction.
The dragon, surprisingly, had no doubt about the mother dragon's purpose and was determined to follow her.
Irving followed, with Judy behind him, the two riding broomsticks through the air.
Fortunately, they didn't fly too far and soon stopped. The stars fell directly to the ground, breaking several trees.
After landing, Xingchen turned around and continued to flirt with the dragon.
The dragon landed very quickly and abruptly, like an airplane braking suddenly. It slid along the runway for a while, and like a small shovel, it knocked down many trees.
Seeing this, Xingchen felt a sense of foreboding, as he hadn't seen any trace of an array being set up in the air.
Even if Ning Shu set up the magic circle very well, it might be destroyed by the demonic dragon's interference, and their efforts might not be useful.
But now that the die is cast, he has no choice but to proceed according to the original plan.
After the demonic dragon stopped, it pounced on the mother dragon, which was transformed from a star, seemingly wanting to engage in some unspeakable act with her.
Xingchen certainly wouldn't let it succeed, but he couldn't leave immediately, so he could only pretend to flirt with the demon dragon.
To allow the other person to touch you, but not to succeed.
After being tricked by him several times, the dragon seemed to be getting angry and was about to kill the star when it suddenly saw flames igniting around it.
Xingchen also saw it. After Judy told Ning Shu about his plan, she also told him to watch the signal.
Once the signal is sent, he must leave the area of the magic circle to avoid being affected.
He didn't know what the signal meant, but flames were already burning around him.
He couldn't wait any longer, so he immediately transformed back into his original form and rushed towards the outermost edge of the fire.
When he flew high into the sky and looked down, he discovered that the firelight had formed a huge magic circle pattern.
Although the pattern was incomplete, he could still make out that it extended to the dragon's feet, because he saw firelight at its feet as well.
Xingchen felt a chill run down his spine; he had to admire Ning Shu.
The fire must have been caused by flammable material; he didn't know how Ning Shu had managed to do it.
Logically, even if it were laid on the ground, it would be destroyed by the dragon's landing.
This brings us to the prop Si Zhong gave Ning Shu: a metal prop shaped like a small mouse that could be made big or small.
Ning Shu's original plan was indeed the same as Xing Chen's: to use gunpowder to draw a magic circle pattern on the ground.
She knew this method wasn't very reliable, so she made some improvements.
At the time, she thought of buying a small shovel to dig a trench in the ground and then scattering gunpowder in the trench.
After listening, Si Zhong felt that this method was too inefficient and that he had a better way.
His prop, the "Drawing Mouse," is used by opening the cover on its back and putting colored powder inside.
Point its eye at the pattern you want to draw, and the eye will emit a beam of light to scan the paper.
After the scan is complete, a parameter panel will pop up, allowing users to set parameters for the desired effect.
Then place it on the ground, and it will draw the scanned image according to the set parameters.
Ning Shu was so excited at the time. She enlarged the prop, poured in all the gunpowder she had bought from town, and then put the lid on.
To avoid damaging the pattern when setting parameters, the "elevation" was specifically set to -50 cm.
After starting, the little mouse burrows underground and begins drawing about 50 centimeters below.
As it moved forward, its sharp little nose pushed through the soil in front, and it easily passed through tree roots, while its little tail behind it kept scattering gunpowder from its belly behind it.
Finally, the magic circle was drawn perfectly.
When Xingchen saw the dragon glaring at him angrily after discovering he had been tricked, he no longer cared about how Ning Shu had managed to do it, and rode away from the magic circle on his broom.
Ning Shu was standing at the eye of the magic circle—she was waiting for a signal.
