Chapter 1285 Then I'll Go
Chapter 1285 Then I'll go.
The crust that had not yet completely broken apart was like floating ice floating on the sea. As the boiling lava from the ground gushed out like a fountain, it continued to disintegrate and melt.
The lakeside where the Explosive Dragon was located gradually broke apart.
The hunters stepped on the semi-molten ground, bathed in the splattering magma, and ran madly.
Finally, they escaped from this dangerous area before the ground completely melted.
Looking back with lingering fear.
In the lava hell, the Explosive Dragon that caused all this roared unwillingly to the sky.
This is its true power, but it is no longer able to show it, and it can't even continue to raise its heavy head.
Endless wandering and fighting exhausted its last strength, and the Explosive Dragon fell heavily to the ground.
In its turbid eyes, a trace of relief seemed to flash across it, and it finally completely lost the brilliance of life.
The three members of the alcohol team looked at each other.
Looking at the huge entity undulating in the boiling lava, Maka said with a bitter face: "Do we still have a chance to extract materials?"
"Of course there must be!" Ted Ted stared.
The heavy shell of the Explosive Dragon, which grew up in the repeated explosions of ancient slime mold, is undoubtedly the best equipment material.
He couldn't bear to let it go.
The problem now is how to get this corpse out.
Can we wait until the magma in this large area is completely extinguished and cooled? Even if we have to wait for a few days.
After soaking in the magma of thousands of degrees for so long, even the best materials will be burnt crispy.
"Li——!"
At this moment, a clear and long cry came from the sky.
The faces of Ted and the other two changed drastically. They no longer cared about how to extract the materials. They all set up their weapons and looked at the sky where the cry came from.
The Ice Curse Dragon returned?
Hayata and the others failed? !
Before I had time to think about it, the Ice Curse Dragon in gorgeous ice armor had already arrived above the large lava lake.
As if in a hurry, it did not make any extra movements, and swooped down and plunged into the hottest center of the large lava lake.
It was not until then that Ted and the others saw clearly that two figures riding pterosaurs were chasing after the Ice Curse Dragon in a hurry.
"So they were chased here, luckily they are fine. Wait, why is Feng Ying missing?!" As a shooter with the best eyesight, Osura looked surprised.
Hayata and Aiden landed beside the three people of Alcohol.
Noticing the uneasy expressions of the three people, Aiden guessed what they were thinking and quickly explained, "Feng Ying's pterosaur was killed by the Ice Curse Dragon, and she was riding Amber to come here."
"As unlucky as always."
"Yes."
"Where is the Explosive Dragon?" Hayata asked with his hand on the hilt of the sword.
"Dead." Maka shrugged, "To some extent, it can even be said to be suicide."
"?"
Before he could ask for details, the Ice Curse Dragon had already rushed out of the lava lake.
The high temperature and high pressure at the bottom of the lava lake melted away its ice armor, replacing it with a brand new body of glass scales.
Facing the Ice Curse Dragon with reshaped scales, the hunters drew their weapons and prepared for battle.
In mid-air, the Ice Curse Dragon stretched its body.
Suddenly, its movements paused.
The corpse floating in the magma, like a dark green island, was so eye-catching.
Although the wounds on its body were covered by the new scales, they were still in great pain, reminding it all the time how powerful the corpse was when it was alive.
Its sight turned to the hunters holding weapons and looking aggressive.
The hunters held weapons and confronted it silently.
After thinking for a moment, Hayata turned his head and whispered to Aiden, "Dye bullet."
Aiden was stunned when he heard this, but Osura understood her intention first, pressed a dye bullet into the crossbow chamber, and fired it at the Ice Curse Dragon in the air.
Ted has already taken up the big shield.
In past experience, the dye bullet with a strong smell has a very good provocative effect.
As an ancient dragon species, the Ice Curse Dragon has a proud temperament.
Faced with such a provocation, he thought that the former would definitely attack.
However, something unexpected happened.
The Ice Curse Dragon shook its wings stained with the juice of the dye bullet, and its eyes showed human disgust and fear.
It seemed to have guessed the effect of the dye bullet.
After realizing that the hunters would continue to hunt it, the Ice Curse Dragon first let out a series of angry screams, and the hunters looked at it fearlessly.
The Ice Curse Dragon finally calmed down, and had already retreated in his heart.
But it felt a little resentful to leave in such a dejected manner.
Its sight turned to the corpse of the Explosive Dragon in the lava, and it flapped its wings and glided above the corpse.
It took a deep breath, and the next second, a silver-white breath spurted out.
The extremely cold frost spread on the corpse, and the diffused freezing air froze the surrounding ground that was gushing with magma.
In a blink of an eye, the corpse of the Explosive Dragon turned into an ice sculpture wrapped in solid ice.
"Li Ya——!"
The Ice Curse Dragon roared again in a demonstrative manner, then flapped its wings, soared into the sky, and flew towards the northwest.
Hayata breathed a sigh of relief.
Feeling threatened and uneasy, did the northwest finally plan to return to the Everfrost Frozen Land where it originally lived?
It is not completely certain at the moment, and it is necessary to notify the commander-in-chief and send an elite team to further track and confirm.
But no matter what, the battle in front of me is finally over.
Out of sight of them.
A group of ancient slime mold that had not been detonated penetrated into the narrow stone crevice.
It will sleep here until the next host appears.
The reconnaissance team confirmed that the ice dragon, which was repelled by the superior hunters in the molten mountain canyon, had left the northwest coast of the New World and flew to the eternal frost and frozen soil.
The climate change crisis in the New World is over.
The star base held a celebration banquet as usual.
It's a pity that the food shortage problem caused by climate change has not yet ended. The variety of food ingredients in the Star Stronghold is not very rich, and there is even a shortage of drinks.
This made this banquet somewhat boring.
Fortunately, no one cares, the source of the problem has been solved, and everything will be fine soon.
The Alcohol Team stayed in the Lava Canyon for almost a week longer. They swung their pickaxes and shone on the ice covering the body of the Exploding Broken Dragon.
While waiting for the ice to melt, I dug and peeled it off. After a lot of effort, I finally brought back the materials for the Explosive Broken Dragon.
After the appraisal of the processing house, they got good news and bad news.
The good news is that the Dragon Broken Material has excellent performance in all aspects, and its quality is not inferior to that of the Ancient Dragon Material. It can create top-notch equipment.
Isana, who was temporarily in charge of the processing room of the Star Stronghold, was extremely itchy, but she knew that her strength as a craftsman was far from being comparable to that of the leader of the second phase of the regiment.
No matter how itchy your hands are, you can't waste the materials, so she suggested that drunkards take the materials of Explosive Dragon Crushing and go to Yuechen Stronghold to find the leader of the second phase of the group.
As for the bad news.
It has been frozen, exploded, frozen again, exploded again, exploded again, been soaked in magma, and frozen again
No matter how good the material is, it should be ruined.
Most of the materials brought back by the Alcohol Team have been damaged in texture and cannot be used as equipment materials. They can only be given to scholars at the Institute of Ecology as research materials.
And after all these "ordeals", the small portion of materials that are still usable are naturally the best of the best.
But this is the quantity.
Don't even think about making armor. Isana estimated that it was almost enough to make two weapons.
Based on the material properties, these weapons should have quite powerful explosive properties.
The drunken trio discussed it, and Urshula voluntarily gave up the opportunity.
The explosive attribute has no effect on the crossbow. It is a pure waste to use the precious explosive dragon-shattering materials to build a light crossbow.
Therefore, they chose to build blunderbuss and insect sticks.
