Do you believe me when I say I’m not a dragon?

During this period, no living thing appeared.

After a while, Pom's digging movement suddenly paused, and then he changed the direction and struck vigorously.Then he burst into laughter and raised the crystal in his hand high.

"Ore of this purity - finally found!"

"Shh! Be quiet!"

The others were immediately startled. Although they looked at the crystal with burning eyes, they still covered Bom's mouth immediately.

"No! No!"

The excited Pom looked around and showed them the crystal in his hand, his tone full of resentment.

"I finally discovered the reason why we are always frustrated in the cave - wouldn't it be better to check the traces around us? Why should we prevent the existence of our own imagination? It is precisely because each of us is dragging each other This is what happens when you are holding on to the opponent's hind legs! If we can complete the excavation here in advance, it means that we will have more time to explore other places, right?"

Looking at his companions who were looking at each other, Bohm slowly calmed down his tone and said softly: "I'm not saying that we should act recklessly, but we can't go on like this anymore. There will be no growth if we always hide in a safe place. Yes, we have to take the initiative, but at the same time we must not forget to use our wisdom and experience, okay?"

After everyone looked at each other again, Charlotte among them took a deep breath, nodded firmly, and was the first to agree: "I agree!"

Chapter 86: Tai Sword Tian Zun, appears!

......

"Chiyo-sama, are you there?"

Hearing the knock on the door, Chiyo yawned and pushed open the door.

Standing outside the door was a somewhat anxious Gulu.

"It's the village chief, what's the matter?"

Gulu stood at the door holding a flaming red rodent creature, which was still wearing simple clothing.

"The previous group of hunters is in danger! I hope you can save them."

The cave is connected in all directions and it is easy to get lost, so the blacksmiths also use this red fire rat to judge the direction.At the same time, after being tamed, it also has the function of sending distress signals on behalf of hunters.

"What's going on?" Chiyo was stunned after hearing this, and then frowned.

"The red fire rat has the hunter symbol left on it, look at it."

Gulu pulled the note from the red fire rat. After Chiyo took it, he deciphered the crooked symbols.

"...Suggestion...black, dragon?"

Hearing this, Gulu's expression changed slightly, while Chiyo's expression became sharp.

"I'll leave right away. Do you have any good swords here?"

"This...I'll bring it to you right away."

"As soon as possible, please."

After saying this briefly, Chiyo closed the door and changed his equipment.

Gulu, on the other hand, showed a troubled expression and whispered in his mouth: "Damn it! How dare they go to that place? I hope they won't anger the black dragon... and I hope they are still alive."

Although there were many thoughts in his heart, he still honestly took out the highest quality tachi and handed it to Chiyo who was already dressed neatly.

......

The red fire rat led the way, while Chiyo followed closely behind, but as the air around her became hotter and hotter, she couldn't help but wipe her sweat away.

She took out a bottle of potion from her backpack and poured it into her mouth without hesitation.

The medicinal liquid is sweet in the mouth, with a hint of mint. After drinking it, you feel a chill in your body, as if every pore in your body is wide open.

After regaining his composure, Chiyo continued to run.

——On the other side, Mercer looked at this group of humans with dull interest.

Really, he just met this group of people by chance. There is very little magma in this area and it is relatively ventilated, so this is also a place where he can occasionally take a breather.

More importantly, there are many sparkling ores here, and Mercer has an instinctive love for them.

And while he was wandering around, he happened to meet this group of people.

Originally, Mercer wanted to treat them cautiously, but when they saw him, they were startled at first, and then rushed forward like crazy - of course, it is possible that they acted out of fear.

Their weapons were so rough that they couldn't even damage his weakest secondary scales, and their movements were illogical. After two hits, he rolled abruptly.To be honest, Mercer even regarded them as actors.

But if there is anything noteworthy about them, there is still something - that is, they are really good at hiding, although most of their efforts are useless.

Seeing their indescribable actions, Mercer sighed, intending to restrain his playful thoughts and show his true abilities.

If you don't let people go through several serious injuries when they meet, Mercer really feels that he has grown in vain. What if others think that he is easy to bully?

However, even with such an ordinary sighing movement, they flew away as if they had lost their souls, which really left Mercer speechless.

Just when he was about to strike hard, a shout came from not far away: "What are you doing! Get out of here!"

Several hunters were attracted by the sound, but one of them couldn't dodge and was slapped away by Mercer's tail.

"Um...Chiyo-sama?"

Pom clutched his chest and raised his head to look at the figure running in the distance. A trace of joy appeared in his eyes, and then his expression became distorted and he broke into a cold sweat.

He had broken several bones in the previous battle, and the pain was unbearable.

Not just him, but other teammates too.

"I can still fight!" Charlotte grabbed her arm and shouted tenaciously. He was probably injured by the attack just now.

"What are you thinking about? You are just a burden now." Chiyo had already rushed in front of them and stood opposite Mercer, his tone no longer in a hurry.

Charlotte gritted her teeth, helped her companion and limped away.Of course, he didn't go far, but watched her actions from around the corner.

After a calm glance at these people, Chiyo withdrew his gaze, looked at Mercer in front of him, clenched the sword in his hand, and looked at each other with him.

"..."

After a moment of silence, neither party made any moves, and Chiyo also changed the grip of the sword from the middle to the lower position.

"It doesn't have a high desire to attack... No, it won't attack those who offended it. In other words, it was the group of people who took the initiative to attack."

Frowning slightly, Chiyo moved her steps carefully.

She understood that such a being either had a gentle personality, or simply regarded the creature in front of him as an insignificant insect... Looking at the aggressive body of this black dragon, Chiyo became cautious.

Creatures that can have this kind of thinking will undoubtedly be powerful.

Moreover, this black dragon exuded an unimaginable aura... Just by looking at it for a long time, Chiyo felt a sense of oppressive suffocation accumulating in his heart.

If he continues like this, I'm afraid his fighting spirit will disappear before he can take action.

"Okay... I'll lend you a few scales to study first!"

Chiyo took a deep breath, rushed forward, raised the knife and scratched Mercer's scales, but a few sparks burst out.

Feeling the frustration of wielding the knife, Chiyo suddenly opened her eyes.

"So hard? Did it grow up eating metal?"

Having said that, she did not stop her attacking movements and thrust forward. Then she jumped to the side with her cassock and moved to Mercer's legs.

This human's first attack made Mercer feel something different. Except for the first time when he swung his sword and hit the scales, the rest of his attacks were all aimed at the gaps between the scales.

Mercer finally became interested. He let out a low roar, turned around and flicked his tail towards Chiyo.

However, she suddenly pulled away, holding the sword tightly with both hands while lowering her body, the tip of her hair barely brushing against Mercer's tail.

Feeling the thrill, Chiyo's eyes flashed and her heart beat suddenly.

Her brain secreted dopamine, which represents excitement, and her movements became faster again. She suddenly stepped forward and slashed across Mercer's leg with her knife.

The action was obviously similar to that of the human holding the sword before, but it gave Mercer a completely different feeling.

On the side, Charlotte's eyes widened as she watched this scene, and she couldn't help but open her mouth.

Chapter 87: Nightmare

"Surprisingly, can it still be used like this..."

Charlotte's body was shaking with excitement, and her eyes were so wild that she forgot about the pain on her body.

——The use of Tai Sword is the control of momentum.

This sentence sounds mysterious, but it actually adjusts the body to its optimal state by secreting dopamine during combat, making movements faster and more powerful.

In other words, it is to increase the momentum layer by layer through combat to maximize the damage.

There are two ways to increase your momentum. One is to keep swinging the knife and let your body feel the action of chopping and become excited; the other is to use a move called "Kikiri", which must be dangerous and dangerous. Avoid enemy attacks and counterattack to reach the next level of momentum.

And the move Chiyo used just now was obviously the so-called Mikiri.

Through training, a tachi hunter can ignore many external attacks, such as roars, flashes, violent shaking, etc., at the moment when the brain secretes dopamine, just like becoming a berserker.But in the same way, the secretion of dopamine can easily cause them to lose their cool heads, and end up in an embarrassing situation due to their fanatical desire to attack.

But it's obvious that Chiyo is not this kind of person.

In a short period of time, Chiyo continued to dodge and move in the face of Mercer's attacks, and his momentum continued to approach its highest point.

"call--"

Letting out a long breath, Chiyo's eyes were as sharp as a sharp sword.

With a quick slash of the sword, several scales were successfully peeled off from his body, and were dexterously held by Chiyo in his arms.

But when Mercer arrived, he felt a little unhappy.

This human being cannot hurt himself. Even if a few scales are cut off, they are just secondary scales on his body and will grow back quickly.

However, even so, Mercer could not do anything to her.This human being can always avoid his attacks at the most dangerous moments, and the few injuries he gets are only minor injuries. At the same time, the site is not high, and Mercer cannot fly. Even if she wants to spit fire, she will always get under him.

With a trace of mania flashing in his eyes, Mercer suddenly slapped the ground, and a large number of cracks spread to the surroundings. However, such a violent vibration was avoided by Chiyo Mikiri.

After pulling back, she did not use the roundhouse slash like before, but raised the sword and pointed the tip at Mercer.

"That can't be it!" Seeing this scene, Charlotte became excited, "Dragon Sword!"

Before Mercer could turn around, Chiyo rushed forward, the tip of the knife piercing Mercer's scales with her edge.

...Then, the sword in Chiyo's hand could not withstand the force and broke with a click.

"Eh?"

Chiyo's expression froze in surprise, and then he met Mercer's eyes.

"It's over, what kind of quality is this..."

The next moment, Mercer's palm came. Chiyo quickly raised his broken knife to block, but was still sent flying and hit the wall.

Coughing out a mouthful of blood in embarrassment, Chiyo reluctantly stood up, took out a small ball and threw it on the ground.

puff-

A large amount of smoke spurted out from the small ball, and along with the pungent smell, Mercer lost track of her. He frowned and took a long breath, but saw the human figure getting into the narrow tunnel. .

Walking forward and staring at the backs of the group of people leaving, Mercer was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his palm and slapped the tunnel with all his strength.

This was not to vent his anger. Under Mercer's power, the tunnel vibrated, and dense cracks spread to the surrounding area, completely collapsing the front section of the tunnel, blocking the way for those who came after.

After seeing the tunnel closed, he checked the surrounding area again before turning around and leaving.

......

"They're back!"

"It's Chiyo-sama!"

In the cave where Forging Man was built, a small group of hunters first emerged, cheering for joy at surviving the disaster, and then Chiyo slowly walked out.

She walked straight to Gulu and handed him the broken knife in her hand guiltily.

"Sorry, village chief, I broke this knife."

"This..." Looking at the knife with some distress, Gulu could only show a forced smile on his face: "As long as you're okay... Are you injured?"

Seeing the depressed look in her eyes, Gulu looked surprised.

"It's just a minor injury. There is medicine in my room. Just treat it yourself."

She waved her hands indifferently and left the place.

Pushing aside the rookie hunters who wanted to express their gratitude, Chiyo returned to his room, took out the potion and poured it into his mouth.
