Chapter 229 The Insidious Fire Dragon

The remaining contestants never imagined that everything they said and did would fall in Sean's eyes, and some even came up with some weird combat methods.

The elites of Nurmengard are well-deserved. Through cooperation, they have come up with many reasonable and realistic methods. Many of them master some unorthodox magic spells. Most of these magic spells are accidents or family heirlooms. Nowadays, It does have some effect in the scene.

Of course, the premise for it to work is that they are facing a real fire dragon - and that fire dragon must not know their battle plan.

"...Then it's decided. However, there is one last thing that requires everyone to make a commitment," Pena concluded, and then looked at the others seriously.

"Nurmengard only values ​​the process and not the results. In the past, most people preferred to act alone. Now they are gathering together because their opponents are too powerful, so -" Pena narrowed his eyes. , "I don't want to see someone backstab a teammate at a critical moment. Ha, don't look at me like that. This isn't the first time we've dealt with some of them, is it?"

Among the students who were half-crouching, some of them had slightly unnatural expressions on their faces.

The educational philosophies of Nurmengard and Hogwarts are completely different. Excluding the differences in daily schools, the most intuitive point is that Nurmengardians know how to cooperate, but they value their own interests more.

Probably due to the prevalence of the lone wolf concept, students in this castle rarely act as a group, and in past experiences, backstabbing of teammates often occurred.

Pena still remembers the Nurmengard Day the year before last. The content of the competition at that time was a treasure hunt. Professor Grindelwald laid out a maze with many mechanisms in it.

Pena, who was still a fifth grader at the time, formed a team with several people and reached the end with his outstanding strength and some luck. Then, Pena was hit by the coma spell of his teammates when he turned around.

This is the competitive environment in Nurmengard - as long as no lives are lost, that's fine, right? Most people will give priority to their own interests compared to the friendship of classmates.

Pena knew very well that if their plan went well and the Hungarian tree peak fell, someone would be unable to restrain their little thoughts, so before that, they must make it clear.

His tone became more serious: "As the initiator of this cooperation, I first promise that I will not betray my teammates, and you-"

The remaining people also responded to Pena's words, but Pena seemed to have no intention of believing it at all.

The corners of his mouth curved, and his whole person looked sinister and cold.

"You also promise? That's too fragile, I don't believe it. I don't expect that an experience game can make some people better. Instead of banking on this fragile agreement, it's better to be more direct - if someone comes next If you betray your teammates, I will give you some fun during the rest of school, and after I graduate—"

"The fun will only get more exciting - you should know the main direction of my spell."

He smiled happily: "Stealth magic and curse magic."

"Pena, you..." Someone looked ugly.

"Yes, Brando, you understand correctly, I am threatening you and a few other ignorant guys." Pena was very direct.

However, the effect of this passage was extremely obvious. Although it felt uncomfortable to be threatened, those few thoughtful people knew that Pena was telling the truth.

There's no need to get into big trouble just for a competition reward...

"How are the rewards divided? There are so many people here." someone asked.

"Based on the degree of contribution, I will give ten points and ask Professor Goodman to judge the contribution of everyone in this competition. Whoever contributes more will get a bigger golden egg. As for those who don't get a share, everyone else will make up for it. ,How about it?"

Pena's proposal was considered fair, and no one would question Professor Goodman's vision. Everyone nodded in agreement.

At the top of the mountain, Sean almost laughed.

Have you started discussing how to divide the spoils before taking action? Moreover, there are quite a few moles in a team of just a few people, which is really funny.

Dave, the curled-wing demon, has extremely good perception. When Pena spoke just now, it conveyed Pena's words and also told Sean which people's heartbeats had accelerated slightly.

More than half of the people have small thoughts...

It was also difficult for the leading boy. However, the seventh-grade student named Pena performed very well. He had a clear mind, acted resolutely, and knew how to eliminate hidden dangers before taking action.

Since Grindelwald talked to Sean several times, he has had more and more thoughts about establishing his own power, and now he is also subconsciously observing people worth wooing.

However, the main goal now is not this. He has to quickly deal with those guys and then get off work for dinner.

A broomstick, right? Eye disease curse, right? Sean glanced at his mouth. Do you think I am a fire dragon who follows a routine?

He raised his wings and grabbed the wooden box under him with his claws. After circling around, he went directly into the cave he came out from under everyone's surprised eyes.

The students in the stands looked at each other.

"That fire dragon has returned to its nest?"

"Yes...I also took the golden egg with me..."

"What should we do? Who dares to go to the fire dragon's lair..."

In the venue, the players who had been sending people to observe the situation of the fire dragon also learned the news. Now, everyone was dumbfounded.

They discussed various combat plans, but the premise has always been that the fire dragon is on the top of the eye-catching mountain top - is it too unethical for you to get into that dark cave?

The size of large magical animals is both an advantage and a disadvantage. While its huge body provides high-strength magic resistance and vitality, it also makes it more difficult to avoid the wizard's spell. Therefore, when dealing with creatures like fire dragons, a dozen or more wizards take action at the same time to ensure the hit and power of the spell.

But in a cave with a sudden drop in vision, the space for wizards to avoid attacks is much smaller, and any part of the fire dragon's body that touches the wizards will be fatal.

The most important thing is that the fire dragon can also breathe, which is unsolvable in the cave.

The players led by Pena were all dumbfounded. The behavior of this Hungarian Horntail was completely out of the normal range - wouldn't a normal treetop dragon hunt around like a mad dog after smelling the breath of a wizard in its territory? ?

Why are you off work now? !

Sean didn't have time to care about this. He returned to the rough and crude cave, and then recalled his human appearance in his heart. After a while of twisting, the huge Hungarian Horntail turned into a second-year little wizard.

"Huh, I'm really hungry after turning into a fire dragon..." Sean stretched and then raised his wand.

You can just struggle outside for now, and I'll come up with some tricks...

After some arrangements, Sean transformed into the form of the fire dragon again. He placed the wooden box in the middle of the haystack, and then showed a satisfied smile full of fangs.

Come on, come on, I'm waiting to get off work...

Outside the cave, Pena led several people to carefully touch the edge.

He stuck out his head and glanced into the dark cave, with an ugly expression on his face: "The view is too poor and the space is too narrow. If the fire dragon breathes, none of us can escape."

"What should we do? Go in and see what's going on?" A person suggested from the side.

"It's too dangerous. Although it's not written in the textbook, Campbell's experience has shown that the fire dragon, or the Hungarian Tree Peak Dragon, has the ability to see through the Illusion Curse. It may be able to sense the flow of magic power..."

If Sean heard this, he would burst out laughing. How could the fire dragon sense any magic flow? Even the wizard couldn't sense it - it was just that idiot Campbell stepped on a piece of grass and didn't know it yet.

The remaining players gathered outside the hole. Not long after the time passed, they became increasingly anxious.

"What to do now? If you go to fight a fire dragon in a cave, you are seeking death!" a student said angrily.

"Wait... did you hear anything?" the tall girl who had been following Pena said.

Several people listened with bated breath, and then discovered that there seemed to be a "whooshing" sound in the cave. The sound was like a worn-out old bellows, and the breath was calm and the sound rose and fell rhythmically.

"Is that guy sleeping?" A group of people looked at each other, all seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.

Pena frowned and waved his wand to turn a stone in front of the cave into a cat.

"Let it go in to explore the situation. Everyone, stay back. If the fire dragon comes out of the nest, everyone will run away."

Seeing the cat trotting into the cave, everyone else retreated to the nearest shelter, only sticking one head out to look at the situation in front of them.

After a while, the cat appeared in front of everyone safe and sound.

"It seems like he really fell asleep? Should we try it?" Someone was moved.

Pena hesitated, but if the fire dragon didn't come out, they wouldn't be able to wait here forever. If they couldn't get the golden egg, it would mean failure.

He lingered for a moment and then said: "No, it's too dangerous to enter the cave - I think it's better to lure the fire dragon out of the cave."

"But how do you seduce someone so that they can go in and recite explosive spells at close range to irritate them?"

"That's all we can do. We can't cast the delayed detonation spell if we can't see the target." Pena took a deep breath, his eyes calm, "I'll go in and anger the fire dragon, and leave one person to take care of me. The others will follow our previous plan. Be prepared and take action as soon as the fire dragon comes out of its nest!"

It would be great if someone was willing to take the lead, and the plan was quickly implemented.

Pena took a deep breath and cast several defensive spells on himself. His figure slowly faded into the air. Behind him, the girl also held her breath and cast the Disguise Charm on herself. , and then followed Pena from a distance.

The students in the stands only saw this scene, and everyone became confused, wondering what kind of plans the players were going to make.

In the dark cave, Pena, who was invisible, tried to lower his breathing as much as possible. He did not dare to cast a fluorescent spell, so he could only use a spell to increase his field of vision before entering, so that he could barely see the scene inside the cave. .

There are jagged rocks in the dark cave. Fortunately, this is just a fire dragon's lair simulated by the professors, and there are no bats or other cave creatures to cause trouble.

Pena moved forward quietly, without being attacked. After slowly passing through the dark passage, he finally saw the innermost scene.

It was a rough nest, with hay and glass gems placed in it. In the center, the goal of this competition, the wooden box containing the golden eggs, was lying quietly on the hay.

However, the Hungarian treetop dragon that was supposed to be there was nowhere to be seen.

Pena's eyes widened. He couldn't understand. What about such a big fire dragon?

Although the scales of Hungarian Treesaurus are black, its barbs and skin are yellow or bronze. It is impossible to hide its figure in this environment.

Moreover, creatures at the top of the food chain like fire dragons never know what concealment is.

So...where did the fire dragon go?

Outside the cave, the others arrived at their respective positions as planned. They all stared at the entrance of the cave. As soon as the fire dragon appeared, the prepared spells would roar out.

However, what they didn't expect was that Pena, who finally appeared at the entrance of the cave, was frowning.

He waved everyone over, and then said with a strange look: "The fire dragon is gone..."

"Gone?"

Pena nodded. He had carefully explored the cave just now and found no sign of the fire dragon.

"What's going on? Can the fire dragon still use the Disguise Curse..." A student made a joke.

"But the big guy is indeed missing... It seems that he walked away through other channels..." Pena even looked at Grindelwald in the stands with confusion. The situation has changed now. Is the game going to be terminated?

However, the professors said nothing.

The players looked at each other, they never imagined that this thrilling game would end in this way.

"What about the golden eggs?"

"Still inside, I checked the situation and came back..." Pena suddenly paused.

"What about us?" Those thoughtful students all looked at each other, and they all saw the greed in each other's eyes.

The fire dragon is gone, but the golden egg is still there...

Without anyone notifying them, the previous promise was instantly invalidated, and several students ran towards the cave.

The rest of the people also reacted. Pena cursed in annoyance and also ran away.

The students in the stands discovered this scene.

"Hey, why are they running desperately into the fire dragon's lair?"

"What's going on? Fire Dragon stayed up late last night and died suddenly today?"

The players had no time to think about other things, and everyone was running hard.

"Golden eggs!" The first person to run away saw the wooden box on the haystack.

"Collapse!" The latecomer didn't hesitate at all, and cast a coma spell on the back of the classmate in front of him.

"Asshole! Expelliarmus!"

"The needle penetrates the body!"

The scene suddenly turned into a big melee.

"Tsk, we finally gathered together -" In the corner of the cave, the invisible Sean showed a smile.

He raised his wand and his body suddenly grew larger.

"Roar!" The deafening roar of the dragon spread throughout the cave!

Pena's eyes widened in horror. Didn't he explore that corner just now? !

Why is that fire dragon still there? !
