286. Chapter 286 Shadow of the Dragon, Tegern Mountains (6000)


Chapter 286 Shadow of the Dragon, Tegern Mountains (6000)

The entire territory has once again begun the intensive resource extraction and construction phase.

Cao Xing himself went straight to the [Blacksmith Shop].

Seeing Cao Xing's figure, Harold knew his purpose.

"Lord, the net you asked me to make yesterday is ready, and I also made a launching device."

After hearing this, Cao Xing was immediately delighted and said, "Oh? There is also a launching device. How far can this thing be launched?"

Harold replied: "Because the size of the net is too large, it cannot be ejected dozens of meters like the hook."

"This kind of launcher can launch up to one or twenty meters."

Cao Xing nodded.

One or twenty meters is enough.

If used properly, he will have another means of control.

He came to the storage box and saw a dozen black iron ball devices as big as heads appearing inside.

This thing has a different appearance from the [Hook Ejection Device], and it is also heavier.

At least a dozen pounds.

Cao Xing also took it out directly.

[Obtain: Large Net Launcher (Purple)*7]

I looked at the properties.

[Large-scale net launcher (purple)]

[Equipment type: special equipment]

[Effect: Press the switch to launch a large net of 6 meters * 6 meters to trap enemies within a certain range. 】

"Not bad, not bad."

Cao Xing admired and then said goodbye to Harold.

Walked out of the blacksmith shop and came outside the territory.

Cao Xing shouted.

"Combatants, assemble."

After hearing the order, hundreds of combatants from the entire territory came out in droves.

Wild Boar Warriors, Ascalon Warriors, Centaurs, Nightmare Court Archers, Dragonblood Fighters...

They stood neatly in six waves according to their military types.

Now, the types of soldiers in his territory are becoming more and more abundant.

Cao Xing nodded slightly, and then began to call the names, "Sarah, Renes, Assam, Andrew, Hilda, Isabel, Bertie Sun Chaser, Bronn, Victoria, Chu Chu..."

"And Jonard, Jousant."

He named 12 people in total.

Including the new members, Victoria and Bertie Sun Chaser, two commander-level creatures, he also called out.

They all took a step forward, and the 12 people exuded amazing momentum!

Compared with the nearly twenty people who went to the Witch Forest last time, there were much fewer people this time.

But enough is enough.

Among these people, there are three commander-level creatures, 6 powerful leaders, and the others are also all very skilled. It can be said that they are powerful and terrifying!

In the territory, Cao Xing also left two leader-level dragon-blooded fighters, a leader shaman, and the most powerful warrior, Francesca.

So there is no need to worry at all here.

Cao Xing said: "You guys, go out with me today."

Hearing this, Bronn patted his bald head and said with a smile: "That's great! Bronn likes to run in the snow!"

Little Chuchu also said happily: "Okay, big brother is going to take little Chuchu out to play again."

Including other people whose names were called, they also had gentle smiles on their faces.

Anyone who is familiar with Cao Xing knows that anyone who follows him to explore will get a lot of improvement.

Others are envious.

Cao Xing continued: "Others, continue to train as I ordered yesterday."

"As you command, Lord Lord!"

Soon, only Cao Xing and his party were left on the field.

He looked at Victoria on the field. The Queen of Nianqi still wore a pair of ponytails today, and her delicate appearance revealed an aura of majesty.

"Victoria, you need to go out to fight with us today. Do you need any weapons?"

After hearing this question, the Queen of Nian Qi in front of her thought for a moment and shook her head.

"Ben...my fighting method is to use the mental energy in my body, and I don't need any weapons."

"If you can, just give me a pair of gloves..."

Cao Xing suddenly nodded.

Speaking of which, he had never encountered any weapons like gloves.

This thing is as rare as a trident. Few people will fight with this weapon, so they can only find a blacksmith to customize it.

"Okay, I understand. I'll find a way to get you a pair of gloves when I get back."

Victoria bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Lord."

Just as Cao Xing was preparing to set off.

A white silhouette came over.

She took one step at a time, the hairpin on her head trembled slightly, and her long skirt dragged on the clean ground of the territory, like a blooming lotus, bright and eye-catching.

It was Francesca.

Today she changed into a pure white dress, which made her enchanting face look like a witch wearing an angel suit.

Cao Xing didn't even know how many sets of clothes this woman owned.

But it's obvious that dresses like this are her favorite style.

Francesca came over and asked softly: "Do you need me to go out with you?"

Cao Xing shook his head and said: "Today you should continue to refine the medicine and make all the secret medicines of life first."

After hearing this, the witch nodded lightly and asked no more questions.

Then he turned around and walked towards the refining pharmacy.

Cao Xing said: "Okay, let's get ready, we are about to set off."

"As you command!"

Soon, a group of thirteen figures gathered at the gate of the territory, plus a mammoth and a snowstorm bear.

Everyone is ready to go.

Cao Xing ordered: "Then let's go now!"

"Moo——"

Dabai stepped forward with his thick elephant hooves and ran wildly outside the territory.

It ran with amazing power, shaking its nose while running.

He also seemed happy to be able to go out.

Wally next to him was on all fours, with the little girl Tong Chuchu lying on his back, and his running speed was not slow at all.

Compared with before, everyone's movement speed has been greatly enhanced again.

And with Dabai leading the way, it can be said that there is no obstacle.

In about an hour, they advanced a hundred kilometers.

On the way, Cao Xing saw several small rivers covered by ice and some small ponds.

The fishing spirit is ready to move at this moment.

I can't help but want to take out the [Crazy King Fishing Rod] and cast two rods in these waters.

But because the place we wanted to go this time was a bit far away, it was a full 400 kilometers.

Cao Xing also buried his head and continued to move forward.

They crossed rivers, jungles, and mountains along the way.

Finally, after nearly three hours of driving.

Cao Xing and others came to the [Tegern Mountains].

The team stopped at the foot of a mountain.

From the map, you can climb over the mountain in front of you and enter the mountains.

There are various complex terrains, high mountains and ridges, and the area is not smaller than the [Borellis Mountains].

Cao Xing looked at the forest covered with ice and snow in front of him.

A system prompt appears.

[The Tegan Mountains have been discovered]

[Map introduction: The Tegern Mountains are vast and covered with snow all year round. There are many legends here. Some people even saw a giant dragon flying over here and falling into the depths of the mountains.

In addition, this is also the main channel connecting the blizzard fields with the outside world. After passing through the Tegern Mountains, you will reach a new area, the Brisbane Wilderness. 】

[Please note: Brisbane Wilderness was originally the area where District 180 is located. It is also the only way to reach the main city of Yongshuang. It is an area rich in trade. 】

Cao Xing was startled when he saw the system prompt.

"Good guy, are there any giant dragons in this mountain range?"

The giant dragon is different from the ancient dragon.

Although they are both dragons, their strength is very different.

Pure-blood dragons have to grow for thousands of years from childhood to adulthood. During this period, as long as they continue to eat, their strength will continue to increase.

The most common young dragons are born with third-level strength.

In the process of growth, their physical bodies will continue to become stronger, breaking through to the fourth level, fifth level, sixth level...

After reaching the peak, it slowly enters the decline period.

And any giant dragon at its peak is said to have a strength of level nine or above...

However, after reaching the period of weakness, the dragon's physical strength will plummet.

But after thousands of years of practice, these dragons in their weakening stage no longer rely solely on physical strength.

They also learned various ancient dragon spells.

Therefore, even the giant dragon in its weak stage has terrifying power that can almost destroy the world!

The difference between ancient dragons and pure-blood dragons is that they will not enter a period of decline.

In other words, as long as the ancient dragons are alive, they can maintain that terrifying speed and continue to grow stronger.

Until you can stand up to the true God!

However, everything has its own balance.

The ancient dragon is extremely powerful, and its number is destined to be rare.

Over countless years, a total of six ancient dragons were born.

The ancient dragon 'Zetan' who brings shadow and death, the ancient dragon 'Dolma' who brings ice and persuasion, and the ancient dragon 'Krakator' who brings crystal and rage...

Therefore, although I know that there may be a giant dragon in this mountain range.

But Cao Xing had no intention of attacking it.

After all, the power of any giant dragon is quite terrifying.

With his current strength, if he dared to provoke the dragon, it would be no different than seeking death.

However, there is another piece of information that Cao Xing is more concerned about.

"I didn't expect that by passing through this mountain range, I would be able to reach a new map."

"No wonder when I looked at the map, I found that this mountain range is located on the edge of the blizzard field."

"I haven't been to the Brisbane Wilds yet. There should be many areas to explore there."

"And the system prompts that if you want to go to the main city of Yongshuang, you must first pass through there."

"It seems that if I have time in the future, I will go and take a look."

However, for Cao Xing now, finding cattle is more important.

So, he said directly: "Sarah, look for a route into the mountain."

"As you command, Lord."

This beautiful dark elf exited the [Moon Dance] form, then entered the [Stealth] state, and quickly disappeared.

Everyone was waiting nearby.

A few minutes later, Sarah's figure reappeared.

"We have found a path into the mountain."

Hearing this, Cao Xing's face lit up, Sarah's efficiency was still as high as ever.

"Okay, take us there."

After saying that, everyone followed Sarah and soon found a trail into the mountain.

They stepped right in.

After advancing along this trail for almost four to five hundred meters, they came to a rugged mountain road.

In front of us are mountains covered by ice and snow, with various unknown plants growing among them. The top of the mountain is shrouded in white mist, making it feel like a fairyland on earth.

[You have entered the Tegan Mountains...]

Now, they have officially entered the mountains.

Cao Xing pressed the communication device in his ear, and then asked: "Elisa, we have entered the mountain, where is your current location?"

"Zizzi...zizi..."

Elisa whispered back: "Lord, you are finally here. I am guarding the herd of yaks here in the Predator Valley!"

Cao Xing opened the map and took a look, and found that the [Plunderer Valley] Elisa mentioned was almost in the center of the mountain range.

There are still more than ten kilometers away from the deepest part of the mountain range.

It is more than 20 kilometers away from Cao Xing's location. During this period, we have to pass through four or five high mountains, which can be said to be climbing over mountains and ridges.

Cao Xing sighed: "This little girl can really run."

After hearing this, Liu Muxue had a smile on her face, "But this also shows that Elisa is so powerful. The group of cloud yaks can be found even if they are hidden in such deep mountains."

After hearing this, Cao Xing also had a smile on his lips.

Then, he led everyone forward.

The huge body of the mammoth passes through the mountains, cliffs and dense forests.

Especially when passing by cliffs.

The cold wind is constantly howling, and there is endless fog below, giving people a feeling of being powerless in the face of nature.

I have to say that the scenery in the mountains is still very good.

Walking through it is like walking through a painting.

After marching continuously for more than ten kilometers and climbing over several mountains, they did not encounter any monsters or wild beasts to attack them.

During this period, we saw a lot of forest wolves, cavemen, and even brown bears.

But they were all scared away by the auras of Baymax and Wally.

After all, Baymax is now a fourth-order boss-level beast, and Wally is also a third-order boss-level beast.

The presence of these two giant beasts is enough to deter the beasts on the periphery from approaching.

Only deep in the mountains can you encounter some creatures that can threaten Dabai.

Cao Xing and Liu Muxue sat on Dabai's back, enjoying the surrounding scenery leisurely.

Not long after they moved forward.

Sarah and Rhaenys both went into alert mode.

"Lord, there is a situation."

They all held their weapons and stared at the mountain forest ahead.

After hearing this, everyone got into a fighting stance.

At this moment, they saw several figures suddenly rushing towards them in the forest in front of them.

With frightened expressions on their faces, they were running fast through the forest!

While running, he shouted wildly.

"Help...help..."

"Lord Mountain God, please save me!"

Behind them, it seemed as if something terrifying was chasing them.

And this group of humans quickly saw Cao Xing and his party, and they thought they saw their savior.

As a result, he suddenly saw Dabai's huge body, and his face turned pale with fear.

For a moment, they were wolves in front and tigers in the back, and they didn't know where to run.

Finally, they bit the bullet and rushed towards Cao Xing and the others!

Assam and others had drawn their weapons.

Cao Xing quickly glanced at the information on these people.

[Nice Town Hunter: Mobit]

[Race: Human Race]

[Level: Level 18 (second-level ordinary creature)]

[HP: 1736/2413]

[Attack power: 347~358]

[Skills: Junior Bow and Arrow Proficiency, Junior Hunting Skills, Junior Trap Proficiency]

[Talent: None]

Looks like a group of ordinary hunters.

Just when Rhaenys was about to shoot the arrow, Cao Xing said: "Wait a moment and see what they want to do."

After everyone heard this, they also stopped attacking.

When the hunters arrived at Cao Xing, they knelt down with a pop.

"Sir, please save us!"

"A group of snow barbarians are hunting us"

These people came to Cao Xing's side and knelt on their knees with pleading expressions on their faces.

"What are snow barbarians?" Cao Xing asked doubtfully.

They were just about to answer.

At this moment, behind this group of hunters, there were roars that echoed through the mountains and forests!

"Ho! Roar!!"

The sound is deafening, and just listening to it makes people feel the blood surge!

The hunters turned pale with fright.

Then, Cao Xing saw many figures suddenly appearing in the woods behind them.

A group of primitive people covered with animal skins, holding bows and arrows and animal bone clubs in their hands, led a few tigers and rushed out.

These are the snow barbarians they call them.

It's really wild and primitive.

The other party also noticed Cao Xing and others.

They didn't seem to want to communicate at all. A group of archers on the opposite side directly drew their bowstrings, ready to focus fire on Cao Xing and others at any time.

On Cao Xing's side, everyone was ready for battle.

Sarah behind him has disappeared into the shadows. As long as the opponent dares to attack, he will usher in a fatal attack from this commander-level assassin.

Including the new member Victoria, she clenched her fists with both hands, her mind energy was flowing all over her body, and she was ready to release the [mind energy shield] at any time.

The atmosphere fell into a stalemate.

After a moment, the tigers in the hands of this group of primitive people suddenly opened their bloody mouths and let out deafening roars at the same time.

"Ho! Roar!!"

【bite! You have been attacked by the roar of the ice tiger, your spirit has dropped by 20%, your thoughts of faith have taken effect, and you are immune to this attack...]

Cao Xing and others didn't react at all, just stood there.

The hunters were so frightened that they collapsed on the ground.

There were two other people with yellow liquid appearing under their bodies...

Cao Xing knew that this was the test method of the snow barbarians. Once he was frightened by the roar of these tigers, they would swarm him.

A smile appeared on Cao Xing's lips.

"When it comes to comparing pets, my comparison is totally worth it!"

He patted the mammoth at his feet.

Dabai flicked the elephant's trunk and roared loudly.

"Moo——"

"roar!!"

Baymax and Wally let out even more terrifying roars at the same time.

The powerful sound wave turned into substance, even shaking the snow in the mountain forest and knocking the snow off the trees.

It directly knocked those tigers back a few steps!

Seeing this scene, the expressions of all the snow barbarians changed, and after taking a closer look at Cao Xing and others.

Without hesitation, they took the tiger in hand and turned back and left here.

"Tap...tap..."

This group of snowy barbarians came and left just as quickly, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

After they all left, several hunters lay limp on the ground as if they were surviving a disaster.

"Finally saved..."

"God bless me, I'm glad I'm still alive..."

Cao Xing asked directly: "What's going on with you? Why are those snow barbarians chasing you?"

After the initial panic, several hunters gradually calmed down.

One of the middle-aged men wearing a black hat said gratefully: "Thanks to the rescue of a few warriors. We are hunters from Nice Town in the Brisbane Wilderness opposite."

"We came to the mountains to hunt and search for traces of a mysterious creature."

"As a result, I accidentally broke into the territory of this group of snow mountain barbarians, and then they were treated as enemies."

"We kept apologizing to them, but these guys didn't listen at all and have been chasing them all the way until now..."

After hearing this, Cao Xing nodded and continued to ask: "What are the Snow Mountain Barbarians? Are they different from us ordinary humans?"

The middle-aged man in the black hat replied again: "Sir, there is no difference in the physical structure of the snow barbarians."

"However, these barbarians are closed-minded and unwilling to go out of the mountains. They are a group of savages who live a tribal life."

"So, we call these people collectively the Snow Mountain Barbarians."

After hearing this, Cao Xing finally understood the origin of these snow barbarians.

He continued to ask: "There is another question. You just said that you are tracking a mysterious creature."

"What is that mysterious creature?"

At this time, these hunters looked at each other.

One of them was about to speak.

At this moment, one of the hunters suddenly raised his head and fell over for some unknown reason.

"Enaji!"

The hunters exclaimed.

Only then did they notice that there were two arrows stuck in the back of the fallen hunter.

"It's over!"

One of the hunters said: "The arrows of the snowy mountain barbarians injured his internal organs, and Ainaji is no longer alive..."

Hearing this, other hunters on the field were stunned, and then a look of sadness appeared in their eyes.

Cao Xing thought for a moment and glanced at the status of the hunter on the ground.

[Nice Town Hunter: Ainaji]

[Level: Level 15 (second-level ordinary creature)]

[HP: 754/2172]

[Status: Coma, internal injuries, bleeding...]

It sure looks like it's gone.

The hunter on the ground seemed to know that he was going to die. Various complicated expressions flashed across his pale face, and finally turned into relief.

As a hunter who hunts in such deep mountains for a long time, it is equivalent to dealing with the God of Death for a long time.

Everyone is ready for this day.

He began to quietly explain his funeral to his companions.

He also told them that he buried a box of crowns under the corner behind the yard, which contained all his savings.

In addition, he also has his wife and a pair of children, who he also asks other hunters to help take care of.

He gave instructions one by one.

As hunters who go hunting together in the mountains, they are actually a kind of mutual help group.

If something happens to someone, other companions will be responsible for their aftermath.

After all, no one wants to die alone in such a mountain without anyone paying attention, and even his family does not know the news of his death.

The atmosphere seemed a bit heavy.

Just as they were preparing to carry the hunter away and take him back to see his wife and children for the last time.

A voice suddenly sounded.

"Let me do it."
