Shadow Covenant

The little Jiujiu Woody in the heart of the spirit of nature can naturally see clearly, but this is also human nature. His purpose of coming here is not to save the Feathered Serpent God, but to make a promise to clear the fog around the Golden River Valley. Dispersed, seeing the black dragon like this, the heart of retreat is unavoidable.

On the other side, the black dragon was not surprised to see a spellcaster blocking its breath, but a hoarse and cold laugh escaped from its throat.

"The teammate picked by the little female dragon is not bad, a high-level mage, but... this is interesting!"

"Bone dross, don't chatter like a brass dragon here, or worry about the treasure in your lair later, I will not keep any of them, and take them all away! Let your corpse rot and stink here, oh, No, you were originally rotten, a dead dragon, as brainless as an undead dragon, hahahaha!"

Doni replied back, for the giant dragon, losing the treasures collected with care is a thing that makes the dragon breathless. Sure enough, Doni's words obviously angered the black dragon. Its face tightened, its scales tensed, and it became hoarse His voice was slightly high, as if he was emphasizing something.

"Wait until you enter my lair. I hope you self-proclaimed kind metal dragons won't be afraid to go home and find Mother Dragon after seeing it. Then everything on you will become my spoils of war. Search for your scales." every corner of your body, and your stomach!"

The black dragon's vicious words erupted together with the thick swamp breath or acid breath. From a distance, it looks a bit like... spouting dung....

Well, it's hilarious to say that, but if you're within range of a manure spraying machine, I'm afraid you won't be able to laugh.

Although protected by the energy barrier, their safety was temporarily guaranteed, but the smell was still unstoppable.

Similarly, Cecil also reminded Doni not to talk to the black dragon anymore, but to communicate with her with her heart, so that she can go to Woody's place as soon as possible. She is watching in front of her, so there is no danger for the time being. But if it dragged on, she would have no choice but to give up this mission when the priests from the temple arrived, and she would have no choice but to give up the mission and take everyone away with the teleportation scroll.

Of course, this does not mean that Cecil is afraid in his heart, but the mage's rationality tells her that if she wants to complete the task, what she has to do now is to seize every minute and every second to suffocate the stench in front of her as soon as possible. The sky's latrine "stone" must be removed.

"Woody, Woody, hurry up, I'm going to kill that stupid dragon, my head is full of kobold waste all day long, and I'm not a kobold, I'm laughing to death."

Donnie gritted her teeth and returned to Woody, and found that the young hunter in front of her had sat on the ground at some point, and in front of him were a series of bottles, jars, and various experimental instruments. Wearing leather armor, holding a curved sword, and this slightly weird underground passage, Doni even returned to Cecil's laboratory for a moment.

"What are you doing here?"

It asked the question belatedly, but when it found that the man in front of him looked up and saw it, his eyes lit up immediately.

"You came just in time! I lack something, only you have it."

He stood up, hugged the cat, and walked out towards the entrance of the corridor. In this place, it was inconvenient for the next action.

"What are you going to do?"

"You'll know when you get out."

Woody quickly took the cat along the stairs and returned to the entrance of the basement, the vast abandoned lounge occupied by plants, and he came to an open place before he put down the cat in his hand.

And the flower cat has also properly restored to the posture of a giant dragon. I saw the dense forest glade, the gloomy color suddenly has an indescribable light source, but if you look carefully, you will find that the smooth scales are reflecting the surrounding light. The illusion caused by the spar, and the bronze dragon is also in a very elegant posture, lazily resting its two paws on the dragon's head, the crown with ribs and grooves flaunts wantonly, the curved horns and yellow horns with obsidian-like colors The greenish scales complement each other and complement each other, but the owner of this body is showing nervousness.

"What do you want? Pearls? I don't have a few left. I still have to keep them as snacks. Gold coins...you can... share some with you."

On the way here, since hearing Woody's words, Doni has been thinking about what he wants, but the only conclusion she can give is the few treasures she can give.

Although it was very distressing, he still shared a part of it with him. Seeing the dragon shrinking back and forth with its paws pushing a small bag containing gold coins, Woody couldn't help being a little annoyed and funny. He didn't have time Joking with it, he directly stuffed the gold coin back into its paw, simply said.

"I want some of your blood and scales to make potions. This is the preparation before slaying the dragon. I hope you can help me."

"Blood and scales?"

When Donnie heard this, she was taken aback for a moment, then immediately nodded in relief.

"No problem. I thought you wanted my treasure. I still have a lot of scales that have fallen off. Can I use them? Pulling them out will hurt."

……

When Woody returned to the underground tunnel, the tunnel that was originally smooth and clean and used as the epitaph of the Feathered Serpent was now full of filth, and there was a strong rancid smell in the air, and the black dragon in the distance had disappeared at this time. When Syl saw Woody come back, he immediately greeted him.

"Where's the black dragon?"

Woody handed the cat to Cecil and asked casually.

"Going back, it seems to be preparing for something? The god of Ruiya just said, and He is also trying to buy time."

Woody nodded.

"It should be trying to notify the group of people outside the temple. There is not much time left, so we have to make a quick decision."

Although the black dragon is not too powerful among the five-color dragons, it is the same as the white dragon. Its body is weaker than the same kind, which drives them to use sneak attacks to solve problems rather than face danger, which is different from blue dragons. Group action is also different from the arbitrariness of the red dragon, so it is normal to call for reinforcements outside the field, because these are derived from the nature of its blood.

Cecil nodded, expressing his approval of Woody's behavior, and at the same time took Doni sent by Woody, but when he saw Doni's state again, he asked curiously.

"How sick it is."

Although Woody told him through telepathy that he needed Donnie's help, she still didn't know what kind of help it was, and she didn't understand what kind of help could make a dragon that was still vigorous and passionately interact with the black dragon become this look.

"A few tubes of blood were drawn and that's it."

Looking at Donnie's appearance, Woody rubbed its head helplessly.

"Wait out, when you get to Rosent, how about letting you eat to your heart's content, it's a port city, you can find everything you want, including sharks."

After Woody's words came out, Huamao lazily opened its eyes, and simply let out a oh, as if the delicious shark was just passing by.

"I'll still come."

Cecil handed over a bag of prepared little pearls, smiled and stroked Donnie's softness and comfort.

"Thank you, little Donnie."

"It's still Cecil who treats me best, woo woo woo."

The flower cat immediately cheered up, hugged the pearl and looked at Woody with disdain on its face. Originally, it thought that a little blood would be enough, but it turned out to be a pot, oh my god, a pot of dragon blood. Thinking of this It felt a little weak all over, and corresponding to the slightly comfortable face that looked at Woody, it also became a little hideous. At least 1000 gold coins are needed to resolve this hatred.

At least!

Just after Donnie vowed that she no longer wanted to have anything to do with the human beings in front of her, Woody had already started the potion preparation, sat on the ground, lit the fire source under the crucible with a flint and steel, and started the first round of procedures.

Handle herbs.

Preparation Herbs used as adjuncts are dried and ground into powder.

What he wants to configure this time is the "Dragon Blood Secret Medicine", which was slightly more difficult in the previous life. The core material is dragon blood. Although there is no limit to the race of the dragon, it must be taken from the dragon's body for no more than two hours. Dragon's blood, fortunately, he has a living metal dragon by his side, otherwise he would not have thought of making this potion.

This level basically stumps most players. After all, whether it is slaying a dragon or making a deal with a giant dragon, it is a very daring thing. Seeking skin from a tiger.

However, the effect of the dragon blood secret medicine is incomparable to the equipment prepared by other dragon slaying braves, whether it is immunity to dragon power, courage spirits from dwarves, or natural shelter leaves from elves that can temporarily isolate all supernatural energy , or the dragon slaying certificate specially formulated by humans to have a huge damage bonus to the dragon, in essence, it is just to weaken a certain function of the dragon, or to slightly increase its own damage, so as to really face the super-sized dragon The dragon is also useless.

But the dragon's blood secret medicine is not like this. Its effect is to make the demon hunter into a real humanoid dragon. Although it is small and takes a short time, it has all the advantages of a dragon.

It can fight, is durable, and has super resistance and resilience. With its help, you can have a real dragon duel with the giant dragon without any scruples.

Of course, even if Woody took the potion, it would be impossible to head-to-head with an adult black dragon, but the imbalance in strength can be compensated for by other factors. In addition to the help of teammates, you can also start with the environment.

Woody quietly waited for the commonly used potion auxiliary materials in the crucible to dry under the flame, and closed his eyes to calculate the available locations of the Lost Temple in his memory. The ability to fight dragons, but if you want to kill an adult black dragon head-on, it is tantamount to nonsense.

When he opened his eyes, the herbs had lost their moisture and stuck to the wall of the crucible, exuding a unique fragrance unique to herbs. He turned off the fire with a calm expression, then picked up the awl-like cylinder and began to pound the medicine. While pounding the medicine, the other hand has already picked up the reagent bottle containing hot fresh dragon's blood, and he divided the pot into ten parts with utensils. His current technique is not mature enough. With one-third success, he can thank the lucky lady Tymora for her blessing.

But having said that, the lucky attribute should also have a bonus at this time... right?

But he will not completely pin his hopes on the unfathomable luck. He completes every process of the potion seriously and attentively. He must be comprehensive and make no mistakes, and try to avoid making potions. There may be mistakes that may occur. Although the environment is relatively simple, Woody still vaguely found a little touch from the experience of the previous life.

In the next few procedures, he was very busy, and basically completed all the steps without any mistakes, and only waited for the final fusion reaction.

When Woody poured several cups of liquids of various colors that were hard to distinguish from the process into the crucible that was burning red, there was a sizzling sound in the crucible immediately, and the several liquids were catalyzed by the flame. , returned to the high temperature state again, and with the help of several auxiliary medicines, the dragon blood began to fuse with other potions, dispelled the uncomfortably violent rage in the dragon blood, and began to neutralize it. But this time it is no longer accompanied by a strong smell of medicine, but a hot bloody smell that seems to burn people's whole body, even Donnie, who has been resting under Cecil's feet with her head sullen, asked This breath also raised his head and sniffed in Woody's direction.

"Success?"

After it confirmed that Woody had no other actions, it couldn't wait to speak in his heart.

However, after Woody glanced at the colors in the crucible, he shook his head with regret.

"The temperature is a bit high. Although I deliberately lowered the temperature considering that you are a bronze dragon, I still couldn't make the dragon's blood fuse at a comfortable temperature. This time, the high temperature destroyed the medicinal properties and failed."

The first failure was expected by Woody, but the second time, the same steps and the same materials still failed to completely volatilize the dragon's blood. The semi-finished dragon's blood secret medicine is extremely unstable. Woody would never bet on his own fate with it, and even if the bet was successful, the sequelae would be unacceptable, so Woody put it away directly and planned to put it in the corner of the dimensional ring to turn it into ashes.

After putting away the second semi-finished dragon's blood secret medicine, Woody's face was a little ugly. Obviously he could lower the temperature, but he still couldn't completely volatilize the dragon's blood of the bronze dragon. What link happened? question?

If the temperature is lowered, it is very likely that it will not dissolve.

The secret medicine is not even a semi-finished product, it has directly become a mass of waste.

After Doni heard that Woody failed for the second time, she also curiously asked the reason for the second failure. This time, Woody may have carefully told Doni the process of making the potion in order to organize his thoughts.

Just when Donnie felt a little drowsy.

He suddenly discovered the problem, the flame is unstable, and it is difficult to achieve consistent temperature in this environment.

While he was reflecting, he was preparing the materials for the third time. He didn't believe that this time, he would still make mistakes after being fully prepared.

However, when he was about to prepare the potion for the third time step by step, he suddenly thought of something, and looked at the flower cat who was lying on his stomach and counting the bricks on the floor.

Huamao noticed the person coming, and looked up at him with wide eyes, apparently wanting to ask him what he was doing.

And Woody's next sentence made it a little stunned.

"I have a big project worth hundreds of gold coins, do you want to participate?"

Donnie was about to refuse, but when she heard Woody's next sentence, she swallowed the words in her throat.

"Pay on the spot!"
