Red Dragon has magic

Chapter 50 The situation is tense
"Alright, we'll set out in three days, kill the red dragon, and empty its lair."

This is a village outside the forest. There was originally another village, but it was too small and weak and was destroyed by the attack of the werewolf group. In the same tavern, the human warrior and his two remaining companions told the story that happened in the village chief's house.

"Do we have to let that red dragon live for another three days?" The half-elf ranger pounded the table with his clenched fist.

"Three days is not a long time, everyone needs to prepare." The human warrior patted the half-elf ranger on the shoulder to signal him not to rush. "The javelin ballista is fixed, and needs to be dismantled and installed with wheels and chains. When it hits the red dragon, we can pull it down from the sky. And Reverend Freyna is out, and she won't be back until tomorrow."

"As soon as possible." The half-elf ranger exhaled and patted his face. "I need to shave my beard. I really can't continue to be depressed... Pudding is dead too. I need to find another animal companion. How about a crow? I want it to peck out the red dragon's eyes, but I'm afraid it doesn't have enough strength."

"That's your business," the human warrior said. "I don't understand it either."

The half-elf ranger nodded.

Three days is really not a long time. It passed quickly with sunrise and sunset.

Sunny morning.

The human warrior was not wearing plate armor today. He left the plate armor in the inn room and changed into a chain mail that was convenient for movement. In addition to a long sword and a shield, he also carried four javelins and a heavy crossbow, which maximized his long-range capabilities.

The half-elf ranger just found an ordinary bird as his animal companion. It can definitely not hurt the enemy, but it is still fine as an "eye".

The sorceress got up early in the morning and sat on the balcony flipping through the spellbook - each wizard has a personal set of symbols, columns, notes and codes to record spell research - and spent the whole morning recording spells, specifically spells for the red dragon.

Long stride and jump can help teammates quickly approach the red dragon. Tasha's laughter and monster freeze can try to control the red dragon. Sarcos said that the red dragon's invisibility turned into a gust of wind, and you can "see" it as long as you feel it well. In short, wind making may be very effective. I don't know if dispel magic can "knock down" the flying sword of the red dragon.

It's obviously just a baby red dragon, so why does it have so many spells, spells that I've never seen before? I will definitely write a paper about it when I get back.

"Is everyone here?"

"Wait, Mark hasn't come yet."

"Yes, I am here. Do you only look at beautiful women?"

In addition to the three people, the team to fight against the red dragon has about thirty people. The captain and deputy captain of the militia are both professionals of a high level. Priest Freina is a tall woman who looks to be in her forties. She is usually in charge of the affairs of the temple. A young girl is a monk... The wheeled javelin crossbow removed from the watchtower was pushed by two militiamen.

The half-elf ranger and the militia deputy captain were scouting on the left and right.

The half-elf ranger was particularly serious today, killing one goblin with one arrow until he encountered a giant goblin.

"A big hobgoblin Ironshadow. It was very cunning. I couldn't kill it and it ran away."

The half-elf ranger still remembered his scout's mission and reported any unexpected events in a timely manner, instead of chasing after the earth elves, otherwise with his abilities he could kill them in a short time.

"There is a legion of hobgoblins in the forest. They must be from that legion." The militia captain said, "They once sneaked into our village and were discovered and hunted by our deputy captain. They finally escaped and never dared to enter the village again."

"I only heard that the orcs were subordinates of the red dragon, but I didn't hear that the hobgoblins were also subordinates of the red dragon." The human warrior analyzed, "Didn't the red dragon come here a long time ago? There's no reason why the hobgoblins could be tamed in such a long time. Don't worry about it."

The team continued to move forward. The javelin crossbow itself was not very big, had wheels, and had the effect of levitation. It was quite easy for two militiamen to push it, and it did not slow down everyone's speed at all. So everyone soon reached the low hill where the red dragon built its nest.

When they arrived at the destination, the battle was about to begin, so the half-elf ranger in charge of reconnaissance and the deputy captain of the militia rejoined the team.

The human warriors took the lead and walked down the mountain, shouting, "Red Dragon! We are back."

After waiting for dozens of seconds, the red dragon came out of its lair and stood halfway up the mountain. The human warrior continued to shout, "Get lost with your tail between your legs."

"What are you laughing at?" The human warrior discovered that the red dragon was laughing. "What are you laughing at?"

"I really don't know why you dare to come." The red dragon's voice was full of fearlessness. Hearing the red dragon's words, the human warrior's heart skipped a beat and said, "We are here to kill you."

"I've always said that those who kill should be prepared to be killed."

"You still dare to speak so arrogantly after all this."

"How do you think my name got out? Who do you think is the master of the group of orcs in the abandoned fortress?"

"Even if you are their owner, they are not here."

"Is it possible that there is an ambush nearby?"

"A group of orcs will also ambush us. Do you think we can be deceived so easily?"

"They don't know how to ambush, but I will teach them how to ambush, and I will eat anyone who doesn't obey."

"One group of orcs is not enough."

"What if we add hobgoblins? Haven't you already discovered the hobgoblin Iron Shadow?"

"The hobgoblin is also yours? When did this happen?"

"I spoke to them a few days ago."

The militia captain looked around and saw orcs coming out from behind the woods one after another.

The leading orc was particularly strong, wearing plate armor and holding a heavy mace with a large iron shield. Next to him stood an orc spellcaster holding a staff. The group of orcs following behind him were no longer the poor-looking ones they had seen before. They at least had one piece of leather armor.

The hobgoblin warlord came out from the other side, holding a two-handed sledgehammer, and led two teams of hobgoblin warriors with swords and bows, a team of bear goblins with hammers, three sturdy ogres, and a swarm of goblins holding spears and bows.

"Didn't you say that there was only one red dragon?" asked the militia captain who saw this scene.

"I," the human warrior's breathing was already a little disordered, "he was just one person at that time."

"Even if it has helpers, we won't lose. Without these helpers, I'm afraid it won't dare to face us." The human warrior took a step forward and pointed his sword at Leon. "I didn't expect you to be so cunning."

Lyon squatted halfway up the mountain and spread his wings and flapped them.

"It's not that I'm cunning."

"I just want to live."

"Or rather, do you think so little of me? Do you think I was found by you and would do nothing afterwards?"

"Weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, arrogance is."

"I can't do anything about it. I wanted to live a good life, but you forced me to do it."

"All right."

"Kill them."
