Chapter 430 Bait
The opponent's giant claws seemed to have not expected this to happen. Under Ryan's strong pull, the giant claws were suddenly pulled into the secret realm.
But then, before Ryan could completely transform, the opponent decisively put down the black-robed girl and retracted like lightning.
"Chi!"
At this time, an arc of light flashed across the opponent's wrist!
There was a roar from the other side of the crack, and a pool of fluorescent blood was left on the ground by Hass, but the giant claws still pulled it back!
It was Lambert who swung the sword, but his expression at the moment was solemn.
He was able to only suffer minor injuries under the full blessing of his sword's faith. The opponent's strength can be imagined, and it must be an epic existence.
At this time, the crack also began to shrink rapidly, from a diameter of several meters to the size of a palm, and then quickly disappeared.
"You escaped so fast."
Seeing this, Ryan naturally gave up continuing to transform and returned to human form.
He came to the pool of blood, squatted down, and carefully sensed it.
He felt an inexplicable familiarity with the aura contained in the pool of fluorescent blood. When he thought of the shape of the forearm of the opponent's claws that he had just pulled, Ryan immediately understood.
"Sir Ryan, the opponent seems to be a dragon?" Lambert seemed to have thought of something, and said with a look of doubt.
"It should be a void dragon, and it is at the epic level." Ryan glanced at Lambert, nodded, and said.
"But shouldn't the dragons here be adolescent dragons? Even if they are infected by the void, they should not be at the epic level." Baldwin, the captain of the army next to him, couldn't help but wonder.
"I don't know the details, but judging from the blood left by the opponent and the shape of the giant claw, it should be a void dragon without a doubt." Ryan said.
"Captain Baldwin, I am also sure that the opponent was only slightly injured by my full-strength sword just now. If it was at the legendary level, the opponent's claws would have been cut off by me long ago." Lambert echoed from the side.
"I understand." Baldwin nodded and said.
Ryan looked at the black-robed girl who seemed to be sleeping but had no heartbeat, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind.
"Perhaps, I can think of a way to make it attack again."
"At present, this void dragon seems to be very interested in the vessel where the goddess of the underworld, Hela, descended."
Ryan's eyes flickered, and he thought to himself.
Because the job change requires a complete dragon blood essence, Ryan has always kept this in mind.
Although the void dragon is a dragon infected by the void energy, it is also a dragon with a good pedigree, which is fundamentally different from the flying dragons and ancestral dragons he killed before.
In this regard, Ryan is very confident that if he can kill this void dragon, the blood essence obtained should be able to meet the last requirement of the job change dragon vein wizard-"a complete dragon blood essence".
However, in order to lure the other party to attack again, the stability of the space cannot be so high.
At the current stability, the other party may not be able to enter at all.
After thinking for a while, Ryan took out the well-protected thin slice from his arms and took the initiative to contact the command hall:
"Command hall, I'm Ryan."
At this time, everyone on the astrologer platform in the imperial capital Tamriel was immersed in the scene where Ryan defeated the incarnation of the goddess of the underworld like lightning.
"The strength that Lord Ryan just showed is probably epic, right?"
As the communicator vibrated, everyone came back to their senses. Tatia picked up the slice with a little excitement and said:
"Lord Ryan, I'm Tatia."
"Lord Tatia, please help me contact Marshal Alfred."
"Okay, Lord Ryan, please wait."
Perhaps for ordinary mission executors, talking directly to the marshal is an act of bypassing the level, but if it is Ryan, in the eyes of everyone, this is justified.
"Lord Ryan, I'm Alfred. First of all, congratulations on your victory over the incarnation of the goddess of the underworld. When you return to the imperial capital, we will immediately reward you." Alfred's serious tone could not hide his joy.
The fact that Hela, the goddess of the underworld, broke into the secret realm of Dragon Valley was beyond the worst-case scenario prepared in the emergency plan.
However, the command hall had already made targeted deployments for those void creatures outside the secret realm, so the emergency plan of fully opening the rift closer was implemented.
"Thank you, Marshal. It's like this. I want to adjust the power of the rift closer to the original frequency. Is that okay?"
Alfred was stunned by Ryan's words, but he quickly reacted and said,
"This is what we wanted to tell you. Power adjustment is inevitable, otherwise the rift closer will not last for a month and its energy will be exhausted."
"When the rift closer was first designed, a circular structure was adopted. The multiple wizard arrays in the closer can absorb energy in the void and thereby stabilize the secret space."
"However, of course, this can only be used for a long time under low-power operation. If it runs at full capacity, it will cause energy depletion too quickly."
"Originally, we planned to adjust the power after your mission was completed. If we adjust it now, affected by the energy wave of the previous battle, if a legendary peak-level battle occurs again in a local area within a short period of time, it is possible that rifts will reappear."
"Well, thank you for your concern, Marshal. But I hope to adjust it now, okay?" Ryan smiled and said.
The other side of the sheet was silent for a few seconds, as if thinking about it. Soon, Marshal Alfred's low voice sounded again: "Mr. Ryan, have you thought it through?"
"I have thought it through."
"Okay!" Marshal Alfred said.
It is necessary to reduce the power of the rift closer, otherwise, even if the void dragon has the heart and courage to steal, it will not be able to enter the secret realm to rob.
Ryan is naturally looking forward to the other party's arrival!
Although Baldwin and the others present did not understand Ryan's intention, they had experienced the battle just now and naturally would not question Ryan.
"Lord Ryan, should we go to clear out the infected adolescent dragons in the secret realm, or should we go to find those cultists first?" Baldwin asked at this time.
In fact, the two tasks have the same purpose.
The adolescent dragons infected by the void beasts are violent and kill their own kind in the secret realm.
The legendary cult masters came to the secret realm this time to kill healthy adolescent dragons and weaken the foundation of the Dragun Empire.
But Ryan knew very well that in terms of strength, the former was not strong, but the latter. Some cult masters were more difficult to deal with. For example, Baldwin was injured by the legendary cult masters.
"By the way, Ereda, do you know who came from other sects this time?"
"Not very clear." Ereda shook her head and said.
"This time when we entered the secret realm, the higher-ups only told us that our mission was to kill underage giant dragons and imperial personnel. By the way, they also told us that the activity area was the central part of the secret realm, and other places were under the responsibility of other sects."
"Is it the Flame Mountain and this forest?"
"Yes." Ereda nodded
. Ryan nodded.
This is a bit difficult.
If the cult mobilized a large number of troops, it would be easier to track them.
But the problem now is that each cult has very few people, and their personal strength is strong. At the same time, they all act alone, which makes it more difficult to track them.
Especially if the other party deliberately hides their whereabouts, it is almost impossible to be found in this secret realm that is equivalent to the size of a county city.
"Perhaps, we can change our thinking. Since the other party's mission is to kill underage giant dragons, it is obvious that the other party will rush to the place where dragons are more concentrated."
"That's right."
"Sir Baldwin, please contact the command hall to confirm several areas where dragons are more concentrated in the secret realm."
"Okay, I'll contact them right away." Baldwin smiled and nodded. He already understood what Ryan meant.
After a while, Baldwin put down the sheet and said,
"Sir Ryan, it has been confirmed that there are roughly a few places where underage dragons are concentrated, the Lingering Pool in the southwest of the secret realm, the Flame Mountain and the Evergrowing Forest
in the middle, the Black Water Swamp in the northeast, and the surrounding ring-shaped mountain cliffs." "The command hall is very supportive of your move and hopes that you will be responsible for this operation."
"In addition, there are currently four combat-capable mission operators. It has been confirmed that if the four of them join forces, they should be able to take charge of one of the areas."
"Oh? That's good, I see." Ryan looked thoughtful. "
Sir Ryan, why don't you leave the Lingering Pool to me? I came from there before." Lambert thought for a moment and spoke first.
He still had the task of the Blue Dragon's descendants to complete, and it was just the right time to kill the cult legend.
"Okay, then I'll trouble Sir Lambert." Ryan smiled slightly and said.
"Sir Ryan, I'll go to the farthest crater cliff area." Baldwin thought for a moment and said.
"You alone? But your injuries haven't healed yet, it's not appropriate." Ryan looked at Baldwin, shook his head and said.
"Then let the Eredar sisters accompany you."
"No! No! This is not appropriate." Baldwin looked at the beautiful Eredar sisters, blushed for no reason, and shook his head repeatedly.
"Lord Ryan, you are alone, right? How about letting Arida go with you? I will accompany Lord Baldwin to the cliff of the crater?" Arida looked at Ryan and said.
"No, if you two are separated, your strength will be greatly reduced. If we are together, I believe that even if we encounter other cult legends, we will not have much problem dealing with them. With Lord Baldwin, it will be basically a sure thing." Ryan waved his hand and said.
After losing the power of the Devouring Serpent, the Arida sisters are now only at the late stage of the legend.
However, the two sisters cooperate well and have outstanding talents. If they fight together, they will still have the combat power of the peak of the legend.
"Lord Ryan."
Baldwin wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Ryan.
"Lord Baldwin, did the command hall just tell you that I am the person in charge of this operation? Then it is decided." Ryan said.
"Okay, Lord Ryan, then you should be careful when you are alone." Baldwin looked at Ryan and said.
"Thank you. By the way, Mr. Baldwin, tell the command hall to mobilize the remaining executive personnel to the Blackwater Swamp. I will be responsible for the Flame Mountain and the Yongmao Forest."
"Okay, Mr. Ryan."
If his guess is correct, the Flame Mountain and the nearby Yongmao Forest should be the responsibility of the Snake Cult and the Limb Reattachment Cult.
Previously, 'Multi-Armed' Pierce was killed by him, and the two Eredar women of the Snake Cult also defected to him, which means that there should be no cult members here.
Even if there are, they should be members of the Limb Reattachment Cult except Pierce.
He planned to go to the weak space at the top of the Flame Mountain first to lure the Void Dragon to attack again, and by the way, he could also complete the task of the Red Dragon's descendant's dragon language mark.
Soon, several people set off separately.
After several people left, Ryan looked at the black-robed girl in the hands of the Hellfire Improved Golem.
He picked up the black-robed girl and carried her on his back, and immediately walked towards the Flame Mountain in the center.
The warm and soft touch from behind made it hard to believe that the black-robed girl was dead.
Ryan carefully sensed it again and found that although the other party had no heartbeat, some energy remaining in the body still pushed the blood to flow slowly, forming a blood circulation throughout the body, so it would present the state of sleeping beauty at this moment.
But the other party's mental power fluctuations have returned to zero. You know, even a sleeping baby will have weak mental power fluctuations.
Therefore, Ryan guessed that this black-robed girl was probably in a state close to brain death.
However, after just two steps, Ryan suddenly stopped, raised his eyebrows, and seemed to think of something.
He came to the back of a golem, quickly deformed a stretcher-like support on its back, and put the black-robed girl on his back.
Although he just considered that the rift closer had returned to normal power, the black-robed girl might attract the void dragon again at any time, so he carried the black-robed girl with him.
But the problem is that the other party might be afraid of his strength and not show up.
So, Ryan thought about it and decided to put the black-robed girl behind a golem to lure the other party to attack.
Of course, this time, Ryan was confident that he would not let the other party escape again if he paid attention.
Because the golems were quite noisy, one person and two golems had a smooth journey, passing through the dense forest and heading towards the dark Flame Mountain.
However, after a while, Ryan keenly sensed that a void vortex suddenly appeared hundreds of meters behind him, and several strange-looking void creatures sneaked out of it, and then followed in the direction he was moving.
After a few minutes, a void vortex operated in the same way.
This made Ryan smile slightly.
"Not bad, the fish didn't give up."
"The fish took the bait."
At the same time.
On the other side of the Flame Mountain.
On a protruding mountain boulder, a tall figure with a figure between burly and bloated was looking at the direction where Ryan and Hela had fought before.
The other party had a head of messy gray hair, a pale and haggard face, and two huge double-edged battle axes on his back. The axe handles seemed to be made of gold, giving people a very gorgeous feeling.
But the most peculiar thing was his body shape.
Although the wide gray cloak was thick and covered most of the body, it gave people a very strange feeling.
A closer look would reveal that the other party was obviously more than two meters and five meters tall, but he actually gave people a bloated feeling, because he was too wide, and the width of his body under the cloak was nearly two meters.
This was unreasonable.
He was the second person of the Limb Relay Church to enter the secret realm this time, and the last person - Collins Glick.
At the same time, he was also the legitimate son of the Pope of the Limb Relay Church, nicknamed "Dragon Slayer" Collins.
Just now, Collins felt the energy fluctuations seven or eight kilometers away. Although it was far away from him, the energy intensity of the battle was very high, which immediately attracted him.
But when Collins walked to the middle of the mountain, he suddenly stopped and extinguished the idea of rushing over, because at this time, the energy fluctuations at the end of the battle soared and reached the epic level.
Collins understood that this was not the level of battle he could intervene in.
At the same time, he was also confused and curious. Isn't there a strength limit in this Dragon Valley Secret Realm?
But the energy level of the battle just now didn't look like a legendary level.
After thinking about it, Collins planned to return to the top of the Flame Mountain again and kill the underage red dragon descendants according to the task assigned by the church before.
Although the church also assigned another task, to kill as many imperial personnel as possible, he knew that compared with the underage dragons, the number of people coming in from the empire this time was only a few dozen. It was not easy to encounter them, so it was better to wait here. But
not long after jumping off the boulder, his ears moved slightly, and he immediately turned his head to look down the mountain.
The dull pace of this rhythm, the low roar.
"Huh? This seems to be the movement of the golem?"
"I haven't heard of any legendary masters who can control golems in other sects."
"So it seems that the people who came should be from the empire." After figuring this out, Collins' pale face showed a smile.
Soon, he saw the trees in the forest below the mountain broken and fell, and two dark gray strange golems and a young man in wizard robes came out.
Obviously, the two golems were controlled by the young man behind them.
"It turned out to be a rare puppeteer? Interesting."
Although Collins had never seen this style of golem, it did not prevent him from quickly assessing the opponent's approximate combat power.
Because golems basically follow one point, that is, the larger the size, the stronger the combat power.
"Six or seven meters high? The two together can only be regarded as an ordinary legendary combat power at most. So it seems that the other party should be the person who came to participate in the Dragon Knight re-examination."
Collins' smile became brighter and brighter. After observing for a few seconds and confirming that there were no other people behind the other party.
Collins turned from going up the mountain to going down the mountain, and quickly moved towards the direction where Ryan was at the foot of the mountain.
