Chapter 754: Evil Eye Stone Sword and Parasitic Bow and Arrow

The first thing Helfas did when he returned was to prepare to deal with the dragon monster. He vaguely felt that the existence he had to deal with this time seemed to be a little different from the monsters he had encountered before.

Not only was it more powerful, but there were also some other different things.

He led a group of people through the checkpoints and sentry towers of the tribe, and walked towards the residence with a solemn face. The recorder beside him immediately came up.

"Lord Helfas, how is the situation?"

Helfas did not say what happened outside, but just told the recorder.

"Call all those who have sealed objects to come to my place to attend the meeting."

The recorder nodded and immediately arranged it.

Helfas went to the second floor, took off the several sealed objects he was carrying one by one, and placed them on the table in front of him.

He wore an iron mask on his face, a black and gray ceramic kettle on one side of his waist, a sword on the other side, and a longbow on his back.

The first two are Helfas's old partners, and the last two are the two most powerful seals Helfas has obtained in recent years. The fact that they are given the form of sword and bow also represents Helfas's importance in a sense.

Ordinary people can only use one seal, and they must have physical contact and carry it on their bodies to use it. Helfas can use and summon seals from a distance through the power of the mind, but four is his limit.

Not only is it difficult to control multiple tasks, but once all four seals are used, the weirdness in the seals will become more agitated, and will always attack Helfas, making him feel very dangerous.

Even if those weirdnesses cannot break free from his will and just blind his consciousness during the battle, it is easy to have various problems.

Helfas took off his mask and kettle, then untied the sword from his waist and placed it on the table.

The sword is not made of metal, but stone. It feels very rough when touched. The shape is not very flat and regular, and the blade is not sharp at all.

There is an evil weird eye on the hilt, which is still blinking at this moment.

Helfas looked directly at it. He sealed it with his own hands. Of course, he was not afraid of it at all. In the end, the eye slowly closed itself and chose to give in.

[Sealed Object·Evil Eye Stone Sword]

[Ability 1: It can increase weight and size by dozens or hundreds of times in an instant, and it is extremely strong. ]

[Ability 2: The gaze of the evil eye will lock the target, causing it to be pressed to the ground by a huge force and unable to move. ]

This is a spherical stone eye monster that Helfas encountered.

When he first encountered it, it looked very small, as if it was just an inconspicuous little monster.

But it can grow dozens or hundreds of times in an instant. It can make its body extremely heavy and smash it hard at the enemy, directly making the whole land sink.

And when its eyes are fixed on a person, a huge and strong force will emerge out of thin air to suppress the person, making it difficult for the person to move.

This guy is so strong that it is hard to believe. It is completely inconsistent with its small size when it was first seen, which made Helfas suffer a lot.

Unfortunately, it has a fatal weakness.

It runs slowly, and its running method is single.

Some monsters that are much weaker than it have slipped away from Helfas's hands, but in the end, it was very powerful, but it was trapped by Helfas little by little and completely sealed.

Helfas reached his hand behind his back, shrugged his shoulders, took down the half-man-high longbow, held it in his hand and tried it.

The bow is grayish white, and it feels a bit like a plant, but it also feels like flesh and blood. If you want to describe it, it is like the flesh of fungi.

This longbow is actually a set, not only with a bow, but also with matching arrows.

Its arrows are the tumors on the bow. When the controller stretches the bowstring, the tumors will become an arrow.

[Sealed Artifact·Parasitic Bow and Arrow]

[Ability 1: The longbow can parasitize on the host. The stronger the host's vitality, the stronger the power released by the longbow in an instant. ]

[Ability 2: The arrow will parasitize on the enemy's body, extract the enemy's vitality and gradually generate a tumor, and finally produce a violent explosion. The controller of the sealed object can control the growth rate of the tumor and whether it explodes. ]

This sealed object was a "tumor" growing on a rotten giant tree that Helfas and the entire demon hunter team encountered in the south of the Full Moon Forest.

It cannot move, but it will spread strange spores around. Once parasitized, there is only one way to die.

At the beginning, when I didn't understand its ability, many people died in one encounter. It was indeed caught off guard.

Helfas looked at these sealed objects. Each one can be said to be hard-won. Each one has someone's life for it. He himself didn't know how many times he had faced death.

He sat down and thought about preparing for the next meeting arrangement and what to do.

After a while.

Someone came up from downstairs to tell Helfas that everyone had arrived.

Helfas walked down the stairs, and everyone looked up at him. The space here was not big, and everyone was sitting cross-legged on the wooden floor.

He came to the main seat and sat down directly.

For this kind of ordinary meeting, everyone didn't have much etiquette, just bowing.

He sat down on the floor while supporting himself and talking.

"It is indeed a bit tricky when this kind of problem arises during the city founding ceremony, but when the problem arises we cannot escape it and must find a way to solve it."

As soon as Helfas opened his mouth, he made it clear that he would take the initiative to deal with the dragon, instead of escaping, and let everyone present be prepared.

First, he made arrangements to protect the safety of personnel on all sides.

Regarding our own people: "First of all, let all the farmers, craftsmen, weavers and cloth makers outside evacuate into the canyon, because the dragon may also attack our area outside the canyon, and there is no shelter there. strength."

Regarding people who go out to perform tasks: "Let the merchant officials and envoys to various tribes return quickly. Some of them have sealed objects in their hands. Next, we have to gather all our strength."

Regarding other tribes: "Notify all tribes near the Full Moon Forest to be careful of dragon attacks. The dragon can fly and may invade places far away. All matters assisting the Zhi tribe must also keep up."

Someone asked: "Where are the people from various tribes who came to participate in the city's founding ceremony? Some of them are already on their way."

Helfas: "Those who have already arrived should make arrangements with the tribe. We are still safe here. Those who have not arrived yet should inform them outside the forest not to enter the Full Moon Forest. The dragon's lair should be deep in the Full Moon Forest. At some point, the road could be dangerous during this time.”

"Tell them we're going to figure it out and we'll let everyone know once it's safe again."

The guard captain and the witcher captain spoke up: "What about the patrol manpower? Should it be strengthened or weakened?"

Helfas: "To further strengthen the patrol and expand the scope, we must find the location of the dragon and its traces."

The witcher captain asked Helfas: "How can we find the location of the dragon? Even if we know that its lair is in the Full Moon Forest, the Full Moon Forest is too big."

"And it can fly. Even if you find it, it will just spread its wings and fly away without a trace."

On the way back, Helfas had been thinking about this question.

"It is different from other monsters. It is a very active and proactive monster."

"It was still in the mine before, but it soon appeared outside the Full Moon Forest. Rather than being passively attracted by the aura of a large number of people, I even feel that it is actively looking for people to gather."

"It should have been entrenched in the Full Moon Forest before. Although I don't know why it has become so active recently, we can develop some targeted strategies based on its characteristics."

"First, it has been so active recently, and it will definitely leave a lot of traces. If we send more people to patrol, we will definitely find its traces, and it is possible to deduce the location of its nest."

"Second, the dragon will actively search for and attack people. We can pay attention to several tribes around the Full Moon Forest, determine its movements, and then set out to round it up. However, this plan is a bit passive. It can also fly, so it is difficult to capture it. It's trapped."

"Third, I don't know if you have noticed, but that dragon eats black iron."

"This has been confirmed by me in the mines and from the witnesses of the Zhi tribe."

"So I guess that some of its characteristics may be related to metal. It needs or likes the black iron we refine. We can use this method to lure the dragon out."

"This method is more proactive, and we can set traps and prepare the battlefield to deal with it in advance. This is the most advantageous for us, but we must also be prepared for the possibility that it may not come."

"So execute the three methods together, and report to me anytime if anything happens."

Helfas made arrangements one after another. At times like this, he became calmer.

Finally, he gave a deadline and told everyone that this matter could not be delayed or slacked off.

"We must try our best to find a way to solve this big problem before the city's founding ceremony."

A group of people filed out of the wooden house, and the entire Black Iron Tribe started to move.

After so many years, at least in this tribe he established with his own hands.

Helfas's will is supreme and no one dares to question it.

However, when he saw that everyone was moving according to his will, even though he knew that he was dealing with a dragon, he did not hesitate at all. However, Helfas, who was sitting cross-legged alone in the room, was not as relaxed as he said. .

Although he had formulated a strategy to round up the dragon, it seemed that as long as he grabbed the dragon's tail, he would be able to defeat it, and no one had the slightest doubt.

But in fact, Helfas didn't have much confidence.

He thought about the power displayed by that dragon, which was already beyond the weird abilities and characteristics of the Biphasic Demonic Insect and the Black Swamp.

The most obvious point is that the other party can already begin to control the power of nature.

Thunder fire.

In terms of this characteristic, only the Evil Eye Stone Sword in Helfas' hand can vaguely show part of it, but it not only has many restrictions but also has a short time, which is completely incomparable with the ease, comfort and large range of the dragon.

Moreover, when the evil eye stone sword's ability is released, it is like a thrown spear, which is completely impossible to control. But when the dragon's ability is released, it is completely different. It seems to be controllable from a distance?

he guessed.

"That dragon's power should be at the third level!"

——

Guards and demon hunters went out in large numbers, searching for traces of dragons in various locations in the Full Moon Forest.

Even Helfas went out in person. He divided the range of activities where some dragons might appear and exist, and then searched one area at a time.

He felt that the dragon should be in the area between the Weaving Tribe and the Black Iron Tribe. Although it was not on the road they often walked, it should be somewhere around.

In the jungle, an old guard in his forties was leading the team forward.

The old guard was injured and retired from the demon hunter team. He looked very experienced, but his body was not as good as before.

"Everyone keep your distance and follow the formation during training."

"Everyone pay attention to alertness. If there is any situation, issue a warning immediately. Don't blow the wrong whistle, and don't shout casually."

"Don't gather when you find a situation. Our role is to find the target and send a signal, not to deal with weirdness."

"Remember?"

There are also two young guards in this search team.

They are not yet fully grown up and look very immature, which can be seen from their nervous and excited expressions.

This is their first time to participate in a large-scale search for monsters. Before that, they had been training and performing some patrol or sentry tasks in the tribe.

Although they were just following the old captain to search for traces of monsters, rather than really dealing with them, and it is very likely that they would not even see the faces of the monsters in the end, they were also excited and excited.

One of the two young guards was fat and the other was thin.

The thin young guard carefully observed the surroundings, but he was still thinking about the training in his heart: "Do you think we can become qualified demon hunters through training?"

Guards are the reserve and retirement positions of demon hunters. Young guards can become demon hunters through training, and old demon hunters can come back to serve as guards when they are old or injured.

The fat young guard whispered to him: "Don't you have the dagger given to you by Lord Helfas? Can't you just go in directly?"

The thin young guard immediately tightened the dagger at his waist: "That's so embarrassing."

The fat young guard said: "It's okay, I have already told the old captain that he will find time to train us. He is an old demon hunter."

The two kept their distance and kept walking forward.

This was the third area they had searched. The two areas they searched a few days ago did find a lot of new unknown weirdness, but they never found any trace of the dragon.

But the two did not slack off. Many things from the tribal training had been burned in their hearts like a seal.

Suddenly, the thin guard shouted.

"There are signs of destruction over there."

The two immediately ran over and saw signs of animals passing through the jungle, and that thing should be very large, even knocking down trees.

But this does not prove anything. Some large dragon beasts also made such movements when they passed by.

The two continued to walk forward and saw more.

They saw huge footprints, and they were still very new. The size of the footprints was obviously not left by a known large dragon beast, because it was larger than the largest dragon beast footprints they knew.

The two immediately became nervous, knowing that they might have encountered the target.

The fat young guard swallowed nervously: "Really encountered?"

The thin young guard was about to sound the alarm when he saw something new.

He looked at a piece of soil that had been raging and turned up by the giant, pointing to something in the middle that was as hard as stone, but also like a block of grease.

"Look, is this it?"

The fat young guard recognized it: "Dragon incense!"

In the training for demon hunters, they had seen the introduction of this kind of thing.

Now, they were completely sure that they had encountered the real thing.

"A dragon appeared nearby."

As soon as the voice fell, they immediately whistled like a conditioned reflex.

But just at the moment they sounded the alarm, another jungle in the distance shouted.

"Ah!"

"Dragon, it's a dragon."

"It's here."

"Light the cigarette quickly, tell everyone that the dragon is here."

The fat young guard and the thin young guard ran away together, not in the direction of the noise, but away from that direction.

As they ran away, the two of them were still sounding the alarm at intervals.

While running away, they kept hearing screams from the distant jungle, accompanied by the slight tremor of the earth.

They were terrified, but they still turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound and noise.

At this time, the two suddenly found that the signal cigarette that was supposed to be lit when the dragon was found was not lit.

"What's going on?"

"Where's the cigarette?"

"Didn't they light it?"

At this time, the thin guard suddenly stopped and ran back fiercely.

The fat guard yelled, "What are you doing? This is against the training rules."

The thin guard: "The cigarette is not lit."

The fat guard yelled, "We will die if we go over there, let's go."

The thin guard: "Follow me."

The fat guard was furious, but after a moment's hesitation, he followed.

However, the thin guard did not run to the direction where the noise came from, but ran to their previous position.

The fat guard immediately understood what was going on: "So you want to light this?"

The two took out flints and ignited a ball of fluff according to the training method, and then lit the dragon incense.

"It's lit!"

After a ball of dragon incense was lit, the billowing smoke instantly turned into a column of smoke. The moment the two lit it, they ran away, covered by the billowing smoke.

Several miles away.

Although Helfas came here, he was not responsible for the search, but sat in a certain place waiting for the results, or providing support at any time.

Multiple search teams dispersed, and his position was just in the center.

At this moment, he was sitting on a high ground, with a small table in front of him, on which were maps and various scrolls.

He was analyzing the characteristics of the dragon. It is said that there are many dragons in this world, and he doesn't know if they are all the same, but he analyzed the one he encountered.

[Weird·Unknown Asian Dragon]

[Characteristic 1: Can devour metal, perhaps can obtain some kind of power from metal, most of its body is metal, perhaps it can transform its body by devouring metal? 】

【Feature 2: Able to spit out lightning and fire, and even create a lightning net on a large scale, and has the characteristics of long-distance control of natural forces in a certain area. 】

【Feature 3..."

The information collected by Helfas came from the mouths of witnesses, and he also collected it after on-site observation, but it still looks incomplete.

The merchant also came over to Helfas. He looked much better than before, at least no longer in a daze, but cheered up.

The merchant asked Helfas: "Why does this world have such a weird existence?"

This seems to be the question that every dragon man wants to ask.

Helfas took a pen and said while writing.

"It's because this world needs weirdness. They are part of this world and also maintain the operation of this world!"

Helfas has seen many strange things over the years, and has a different view of this world.

"Some weirdness can make plants grow vigorously, some weirdness can make a region have abundant water resources, and even wind, rain and weather changes are all related to some weird existences. "

Merchant: "Then why did someone appear again? ”

Helfas: “Maybe it’s because this world also needs people!”

Merchant: “Is it to be eaten by monsters?”

Helfas: “I think there must be other meanings. Although people are weak, they have wisdom that monsters don’t have.”

“This world may need monsters, but without wisdom and the power of thinking, everything will be meaningless.”

Suddenly, Helfas felt a movement in the distance.

He immediately stood up, put down his pen, picked up the bow beside him, and led people to quickly go there.

“Where is the movement coming from?”

These days, this kind of situation is not uncommon, but sometimes it is some large dragon beasts, and sometimes it is other monsters.

Helfas moved towards the target while watching the movement.

Suddenly.

Helfas saw the billowing smoke in the distance, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

“Found it. "

At the same time, a violent roar was heard from afar.

"Woo~"

A dragon spread its wings and flew up from the jungle. It was holding a dragon man in its claws, and it crushed him into a meat paste the moment it flew up.

It showed its ferocity and brutality to these reptiles without any hesitation.

The terrifying momentum spread in an instant, and a large number of dragon men in the surrounding forests were directly taken by its momentum and lay on the ground unable to move.

In the jungle, Helfas, who was running at high speed, also saw the other party.

He stopped immediately and took the half-man-high bow from his back.

Pull it hard.

The strange bow melted like foam and candles, covering Helfas's left arm. The bow looked like it grew out of his hand.

An arrow automatically grew between the bow and the string, and with a loud bang, it was thrown into the sky.

"Swish! "

The sharp arrow turned into light and rushed into the sky. The dragon only saw it at this time.

It flapped its wings to avoid it, but it was too late.

The arrow hit its body like a heavy artillery, and then spread out all of a sudden, covering part of its body like a pool of mud, and squeezed into the scales.

Then, a tumor grew out of its body.

"Bang!"

The tumor grew rapidly, and then exploded with a loud bang.

You can see the dragon's body covered with metal scales, and part of it is exposed.

Although for the huge size of the dragon, this small piece is nothing, let alone fatal.

But it is enough to anger a dragon. As a high-ranking top predator, it has not suffered such a heavy blow.

The dragon roared, looking at the "despicable villain" who attacked it below.

Its voice changed, becoming like thunder, no longer used to show its majesty, but anger.

"Roar! "

It immediately turned around and wanted to pounce on that guy.

Helfas was not afraid at all, but smiled.

"Good!"

"It is angry and is coming down."

"Everyone get ready."

The people of the Black Iron Tribe came from all directions, carrying all kinds of seals, and skillfully formed a formation waiting for the dragon to rush down.

But under the gaze of Helfas, the dragon just made a gesture to pounce down.

"Boom!"

A thunder exploded, and the white light was so dazzling that people couldn't open their eyes.

At the moment of thunder, the mask on Helfas's face immediately extended a large number of tentacles to wrap himself, and his body quickly rolled to the other side.

But when Helfas completed the resurrection of the two-phase demon worm, he didn't see the dragon rushing down.

Helfas raised his head.

He saw it flapping its wings and flying away.

Helfas retracted his strength, climbed up and looked at the sky, and uttered the same words as the merchant before.

"There is something wrong with this dragon."

However, although Helfas didn't use all his strength in that arrow, and it was not fatal to the dragon at all, Helfas's goal was achieved.

Injuring the dragon with that arrow was only secondary. His main goal was to leave the scent of the parasitic bow on it.

Next, Helfas only needed to hold the parasitic bow and reach its vicinity, or if it appeared within a certain range of Helfas, Helfas would be able to find it.
