Path of Light.

Chapter 636 637. Bone Dragon
Great Swordsman Alvin was lucky enough to obtain two elemental cores from the two-headed demon snake, making this hunting operation very worthwhile.

In addition to an ice core and a shadow core, Great Swordsman Alvin also pried off eight venomous snake fangs and a large piece of high-grade snake skin from the demon snake's head. Although the two-headed demon snake's own strength has declined a lot after the battle with the lich, it should also maintain the level of a level 5 Warcraft.

In fact, Roy currently lacks such a piece of high-grade Warcraft leather, because Mage Elaud promised Roy that he would introduce Roy to an inscription master who would tailor a set of second-level magic pattern structures for him, but the base material of the magic pattern structure actually needs to be provided by Roy himself.

Now such a two-headed demon snake has been hunted in the Great Rift Valley in Haiti. There are only six people in the adventure team, and each member can get a rich reward.

For example, the Great Magician Oppaia got an Ice Core, the Great Swordsman Alvin got a Shadow Core, Byron Thor got four Serpent Fangs, Etia Mica got another four Serpent Fangs, and Roy and Leah got all the Demon Snake Leathers.

These demon snake leathers were very large and were not split directly in the middle. Roy put them all into his magic waist bag.

The adventure group walked out of the cave happily and continued to move forward along the great rift valley.

With this gain, the atmosphere in the adventure group also changed a lot.

The great swordsman Alvin was the happiest one. It was because of his persistence that the adventure group had such a harvest. At the same time, they also discovered the two-headed demon snake and confirmed that the demon snake had some dragon blood. This also greatly increased his prestige in the adventure group...

Leah walked at the front of the team and turned to ask Great Swordsman Alvin:

"Uncle Alvin, how did you tell that the demon snake's blood contained dragon blood?"

"This may sound mysterious, but it's actually quite simple. We all know that before the dragons left the Elf Continent, there were often dragon slayers from the Orc tribes hunting dragons. After they killed the first dragon, they would usually bathe in dragon blood so that they would have strong bodies as hard as iron." Great Swordsman Alvin explained to Leah.

He stretched out a finger, rubbed the ball of his thumb and said:

"When I touched the blood flowing from the two-headed demon snake, I felt that its blood also had a very weak repair ability, so I concluded that this two-headed demon snake had dragon blood."

"There are only two possible reasons why its blood has this ability. The first reason is that it is the offspring of a frost dragon and a dark snake demon. The other reason is that it ate the remains of a frost dragon. Some snake demons have the ability to devour. But the second reason is obviously less likely."

"..."

Great Swordsman Alvin began to popularize knowledge about dragons to Leah, and Roy also learned a lot from her.

The adventure group walked out of the Great Rift Valley in one breath. Outside the rift valley, the number of dark creatures wandering in the air increased again.

Great Swordsman Alvin found a pile of rocks and led everyone to rest here and build simple marching tents. Except for the elves on night duty, everyone had to rest in the temporary tents.

The fierce battle with the two-headed snake monster made everyone very tired, but Roy was in better condition.

So this time Roy took the initiative to ask to stay by the campfire to keep watch.

The magic tent obscured the presence of the elves in the adventure group. Countless dark creatures were floating in the sky. They were like a group of headless flies, flying wantonly in the air. Their numbers were terrifying.

After staying in the dark land for so long, Roy had long been accustomed to the dark creatures in the sky.

In fact, as long as we understand their activity patterns, these dark creatures are not as scary as rumored.

He had been discussing the combat priests and temple priests in the Temple Expeditionary Force with Byron Thor in recent days. According to Byron Thor's description, the combat priests in the Temple Expeditionary Force were much more powerful than Roy had imagined.

Byron Thor said that their greatest strength lies in their ability to step on the Holy Seal and cast the Holy Light Judgment on those dark creatures...

The only thing that restricts them is that they cannot obtain the power of holy light in the dark land.

Compared with the combat priests, the presence of those temple priests may be weaker, but these temple priests are proficient in various blessing magic. In fact, a large part of the second batch of temple expeditionary forces is composed of mercenaries. Before the war, these mercenaries will receive various blessing magics, and then they will swarm into the army of the dark forces. Sometimes the battle is almost a one-sided charge.

Roy hoped to become a combat priest, but he had basically never come into contact with holy seal magic. The one he was most familiar with was the Hammer of Holy Light...

On the battlefield in the dark land, since it is difficult for priests to obtain the power of holy light, the divine spell that priests perform the least is the Hammer of Holy Light.

When fighting the two-headed snake again, Roy discovered that both the Hammer of Judgment and the Hammer of Punishment caused much more damage to the two-headed snake than expected...

Probably having just woken up, the great magician Oppaia came out of the tent, holding a set of clean clothes and heading towards a secluded place in the rocky area. In her magic waist bag was a simple bathing shed that could be assembled at any time, allowing her to take a bath anytime and anywhere when traveling in the wild.

Roy never took a bath again after leaving the magic cabin.

Therefore, he was very envious of Oppaia's simple bathing shed.

After Oppaija wiped her wet hair and sat across from the fire, Roy put down his notes and said to Oppaija solemnly:

"Opeia, thank you very much this time."

Oppaiia wiped her wet long hair carefully. She exuded a rich lemon scent that was very refreshing.

She carefully gathered her long hair behind her head, and then quickly covered her face with a veil. Wearing a veil in the dark area could effectively prevent the wind and sand from blowing on her face.

Oppaia smiled softly: "Now you should know why Mr. Elaud agreed to let me go with the adventure group! I am proficient in space magic. Even if I encounter danger, I can open the space gate in the battle and lead everyone to escape from the battlefield."

"But compared to that bastard Grimes, I am much weaker in fighting against dark beasts."

"This time, entering Haiti to search for the whereabouts of the lich may take a long time. I hope we can cooperate as soon as possible..."

She stretched out a hand somewhat seriously and smiled at Roy.

……

In the next ten days, the adventure team moved forward a little further.

Then, according to the agreed gathering place, the adventure team changed their route and headed towards the magic cabin.

Every time the adventure group goes out, the range they can search is restricted by the gathering place of the magic wooden house. They only have about a week to search everywhere, and then they will immediately head to the gathering place of the magic wooden house.

After a round of searching, the adventure team will rest in the magic cabin for a week.

In this way, the great swordsman Alvin led the adventure team to search continuously in the Haiti area. The magic wooden house continued to go deeper into the hinterland of Haiti, and the adventure team's search area also went deeper and deeper...

Each round of exploration took the adventure team almost three weeks. Before they knew it, Roy's adventure team had completed five rounds of searches in Haiti.

Three months passed in a flash.

During this period, it cannot be said that the adventure team gained nothing.

Roy saw the black devil whale chasing the dark creature in the sky again. The devil tide almost covered half of the sky. This time, no one tried to avoid the black devil whale because the devil tide did not surge over. It just passed by the adventure group...

During the journey, the adventure group also encountered some level 6 dark monsters, but they did not see any liches again.

Almost every time they encountered a level six dark beast, Great Swordsman Alvin would lead everyone to hide. With Leah in the team, everyone could always sense some dangerous level six dark beasts in advance, and there would be no danger as long as they avoided them in advance.

Great Swordsman Alvin organized two more hunts during this period. The hunting targets he selected were almost all level five dark monsters surviving in the cracks in Haiti.

There were two hunts, one successful and one unsuccessful. The Warcraft materials harvested were indeed very rare, but everyone also paid a certain price for it.

EtiaMika's right arm was broken during the failed hunt. Although Roy reconnected the arm in time after the battle, it was broken once it was broken. Even if it healed later, it would probably be difficult for the arm to return to its original state.

For an Abyss Walker, this may mean the end of his adventuring career...

Fortunately, new members joined the adventure team in time, and the dwarf uncle Linglan Bronzebeard and the great magician Darakli returned to the team as scheduled.

As the magic wooden house continued to go deeper into the sea, the adventure group finally walked into a black sand sea where they no longer had to go down.
In this vast sea of ​​sand, members of the adventure team would occasionally see some very complete remains of giant monsters. The hills of bones gave Roy a very strong visual impact.

This place is already in the heart of Haiti. After arriving at this sea of ​​sand, Roy found that Leah became a little nervous. She would always wake up from her sleep, or stare at her surroundings nervously all day long.

"What are you worried about?" Roy asked Leah quietly.

Leah shook her head in distress:

"I don't know either. I just think it's very dangerous inside and I don't want to go in."

She raised one hand, and Roy could see that it was shaking.

Leah whispered to Roy: "I don't want to do this either, but I can't control my body..."

……

In fact, it was not only Leah who had the idea of ​​quitting, but also the six magicians in the magic house.

Since they have not found the lich yet, the magicians want to look for it in the edge areas of Haiti instead of rushing around in the depths of Haiti where there are level 6 dark monsters.

The magicians had no interest in these level six dark beasts. They just wanted to capture a few liches. So after the adventure team searched the heart of Haiti in vain, Magician Elaud finally announced to everyone that the magic cabin was going to return to the edge of Haiti to continue searching for the whereabouts of the liches.

"I feel like we've worked so hard to get here, and if we give up so easily now, all our previous efforts will be in vain." Great Swordsman Alvin was a little emotional, and he didn't use honorifics when speaking to Mage Elaud.

"Didn't we already find a lich in Haiti?"

Great Swordsman Alvin continued:

"This proves that there must be other liches in Haiti. This is the Magic Beast Forest in the Dark Land. Apart from here, it is impossible for us to encounter such a dense concentration of high-level dark magic beasts anywhere else."

"Besides, there are obvious traces of battlefield remains here. I think the remains of the Frost Dragon may not be too far away."

"Since we have already spent so much time, we should continue looking."

These words from the great swordsman Alvin made the originally hesitant Mage Elaud change his mind, and he controlled the magic wooden house to continue to go deeper into the heart of Haiti.

Time quickly came to the fourth month.

In a blink of an eye, the magicians searched in Haiti for half a year, and except for capturing a lich on the edge of Haiti, they basically found nothing.

Looking at the endless black sea of ​​sand, the six magicians didn't want to waste any more time in Haiti.

This search is the last outing of the adventure team. If there is still no trace of the lich, the magic cabin will decisively leave the heart of Haiti.

Great Swordsman Alvin led the adventure group forward, and as they walked, Roy noticed that something was wrong at the edge of his vision.

Everyone had been walking in the black sand sea for so long that they were already familiar with the unchanging scenery before their eyes. However, although Roy saw a vast sea of ​​sand this time, the edge of the sand sea seemed to be closer and filled with a dark atmosphere.

Not long after, Great Swordsman Alvin and Byron Thor also discovered this abnormality.

An expression of joy appeared on the face of the great swordsman Alvin. He even unconsciously quickened his pace, jogging all the way, and then stopped on the sand in front.

When the other members of the adventure team followed in his footsteps, they discovered that a huge abyss appeared in front of the great swordsman Alvin.

The steaming dark air was steaming out from the huge abyss before their eyes.

The abyss was filled with darkness, and it was unclear how deep it was. However, Roy observed it with his eyes and roughly estimated that the diameter of this circular abyss was at least ten kilometers...

It was surrounded by black fog and nothing could be seen clearly inside.

Oppaia stood at the edge and took out a magic flare from her magic waist bag. After lighting it, she threw it into the abyss. The flame of the flare became smaller visibly and finally disappeared in the black fog. It was impossible to see how deep the abyss was.

Great Swordsman Alvin was a little excited. He stood at the edge of the abyss and fumbled out a bundle of oiled hemp rope from his magic waist bag. He tied one end around his waist and fixed the other end to the sand with a long iron rod...

He prepared to explore down along the side of the abyss along the oiled hemp rope.

At this moment, a deafening sound of bones rubbing against each other was heard around him. Roy looked up at the sky following the sound and saw a bone dragon with only a gray-white skeleton left. It flapped its bony wings and circled into the abyss...

It was a huge bone dragon, with a wingspan of at least thirty meters...
