Problem Girls Strategy

After reading the letter, Lighthi was furious. He was the strongest young dragon of the red dragon clan, but he was threatened by those undead creatures. In anger, he spit out dragon fire and directly killed half of the red dragons, and then took the rest as his younger brothers to manage the surrounding areas.

For the first two hundred years after receiving the letter, it spent every day in anger, thinking that even if the purpose was to trick itself back, it should not use a weak creature like a human being to insult its dignity.

Another three hundred years passed, and it began to disdain the human race. It couldn't even defeat the sub-dragon species created by its minions, and yet it actually wanted to kill it. It was simply a huge joke.

Up to now, its attitude has changed from indifference to expectation. There have indeed been heroes among humans that it recognizes, but none of them are the humans described in the letter.

Chapter 310 Laser Bazooka

The life of the dragon clan has no end. Their biggest problem is how to find fun in their long life. If they lose that fun, they will gradually fall into a state called "dragon trap". They will become without desires and finally even life will not matter. They will give up survival and die completely in their sleep.

A thousand years is a long time for the dragon clan. The prophecy that Lighthi originally disdained has become a way for it to fight against the curse of "dragon trap".

Although it has been hiding in the Red Dragon Volcano and has never gone out, the red dragons under its command will still report to it from time to time what is happening on the continent. Especially when characters such as "brave men", "heroes", and "great sages" appear among humans, it will always be particularly excited, wondering if it is the human in the prophecy.

It’s a pity that they don’t seem to have any intention of coming to the Red Dragon Volcano. Instead, they are extremely active in other areas of the continent.

Lighthi knew that he was a mutated red dragon, and the human who could kill it would definitely not be too weak, and he would definitely be able to have a blood-boiling battle with it. Thinking of the scene at that time, the temperature in the cave suddenly rose. Fortunately, after thousands of years of high-temperature smelting, the surrounding walls became as crystal clear as ruby, and there was no change at all in the face of such a temperature.

The slightly boiling blood quickly cooled down, and its eyes opened slightly to reveal majestic golden vertical pupils.

I don’t know when the destined opponent will appear.

......

A priest who successfully went to heaven once said.

The encounter between people is like gravity.

Jiang Zao felt that this sentence was quite suitable to describe people and dragons.

He and Kailu had only gone about ten kilometers into the Red Dragon Volcano, to the outer periphery of the volcano, when they saw a red dragon flying overhead.

The unique pressure from the overlord-level monster instantly made the monsters on the ground tremble and completely lose their ability to resist. As an orc, Kael was also very sensitive to this aura. If she hadn't been supported by the magic wand, she might have fallen to the ground.

Jiang Zao didn't feel any pressure. The red dragon flashed in the air. According to the records in the monster encyclopedia, their fastest flying speed should be similar to that of modern fighter jets. The red dragon just now might be flying very slowly and leisurely because it was in its own territory, which allowed the two to see it clearly.

He reached out and held Kailu's shoulder: "Are you okay? Is the red dragon's pressure so strong?"

The feeling of suffocation that had been weighing on her heart disappeared in an instant. Kailu adjusted her rapid breathing and looked at the other person in surprise: "Don't you feel anything?"

"No, I only know that Overlord-level monsters have a unique pressure, but I didn't actually feel anything."

"You...let go of my shoulders and see."

Jiang Zao did as she was told, and the pressure that had not yet dissipated came back to Kailu. She pursed her lips, covered her chest, her face turned pale, and her eyes revealed discomfort.

Placing his hand on Kailu's shoulder again, Jiang Zao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Could it be that I am immune to this kind of pressure? That would be a good thing."

"We have been in Red Dragon Volcano for so long, and you have never told us what we are doing here."

"Of course, we are here to hunt the red dragon."

"Are you crazy!?"

"Of course I'm not crazy. By the way, it's not the red dragon from before. It's a mutant red dragon that has lived for a thousand years."

"No! You are looking for death, come with me!" Kailu anxiously pulled Jiang Zao out, but he seemed to have taken root under her feet and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't pull him away.

Of course, she did this not because she was afraid of death. For her who had lost most of her memories, death was just a way to end the pain. But she didn't want Jiang Zao to do something that was no different from suicide.

As a "prop", life or death is not important at all, but the owner of the "prop" must survive.

At times like this, one can vaguely see her previous personality.

Jiang Zao sighed inwardly, held Kailu's hand with his backhand, and said to her with a firm look: "I made a promise to Kokoro and Huihui that I would definitely return alive, so... I will not die. I will get the tool to save Kokoro and return intact."

"Promises are totally unreliable!" Kailu turned around with tears in her eyes: "Just like before... before..."

She didn't continue speaking. The blank in her memory was like a pair of sharp scissors, cutting the originally complete words in the middle. She had no idea what came after that.

Kael really didn't like this feeling. Many things were at her fingertips, but they all turned into nothingness. She couldn't recall, couldn't feel, and couldn't express them.

It’s like a story. Even though you have listened to it with your companions, you can only remember fragments of it. When you communicate with your companions, it feels like you are listening to another story. Even your own existence seems redundant in the discussion.

The big hand gently stroked her head, and the warmth from the palm smoothed out the wrinkles in her heart called "pain".

"My promise is not a lie to deceive. If you don't believe it... you can ask me for a promise."

"...Is it okay, even for a 'tool' like me?"

"Okay, we have been promoted from strangers to acquaintances."

"Then..." Kailu held up her little finger: "I must come back alive."

Jiang Zao stretched out his hand without any hesitation and made a pinky promise to her, "I promise you."

The agreement was fulfilled, and Kael no longer planned to leave with him. The two continued to go deeper into the Red Dragon Volcano. Jiang Zao's optimization and creation of magic was still ongoing, and various modern weapons were imitated by him in the form of magic.

He carried the straight dark green rocket launcher on his shoulder, loaded the shells into it, aimed the muzzle at the conspicuous lair of the Demon Flame Wolf Pack six hundred meters away, and then pulled the trigger.

The shell turned into a black laser that directly dissolved the nest. The Demon Flame Wolf in the laser range was annihilated in the light column without even making a howl.

The ground that was holed soon began to ooze out a large amount of magma unique to magma worms from the holes to fill the holes. It was estimated that in more than ten days, the magma would cool down and turn into hard land again.

Kailu used the Eagle Eye Technique to report the situation to Jiang Zao: "All the monsters outside the attack range have been defeated. In terms of attack distance and speed alone, it ranks among the best in lightning magic, which is famous for these two factors. However, it is still a little less powerful than large-scale magic cast by multiple people."

"Got it. Next let's think of a way to improve the shells." Jiang Zao nodded and released the handle of the rocket launcher, which immediately turned into a point of light and dissipated into the air.

This type of rocket launcher is the [Dark Eclipse Thunder·Rocket Launcher], which focuses on long-range firepower strikes. In addition, there are [Dark Eclipse Thunder·Sniper Rifle], [Dark Eclipse Thunder·Grenade] and other types of weapons used in different combat environments.

Chapter 311: Firepower Coverage Aesthetics

The more Jiang Zao studied and improved the ancient magic [Dark Erosion Thunder], the more he could feel the infinite possibilities of ancient magic.

At present, the four conventional modern weapons, pistols, sniper rifles, rocket launchers and grenades, have been adapted to dozens of different types of ammunition and models. The most basic is the remaining seven elements of ammunition. If they are named, they would probably be [Light Erosion Thunder], [Water Erosion Thunder] and so on.

By the way, the sniper rifle can fire the [Blade of Resurrection] in the form of bullets, which reminds Jiang Zao of a nanny sniper named "Anna". Perhaps he can consider researching an anesthetic bullet, and then move a few barrels of explosives to the side of the enemy and kill them with one blow.

The process of continuous improvement and research also allowed Jiang Zao's two skills [Element Control] and [Magic Control] to be upgraded to Lv4, and the overall strength of [Element Armament] was further increased. He had a vague feeling that as long as he upgraded the skill to Lv5, the unlimited ammunition of the pistol and the construction of the rifle would no longer be a dream.

These are the results that can only be achieved by ancient magic, which is a kind of idealistic spellcasting method. If it were modern magic, it would definitely not have such a high degree of freedom and plasticity.

Jiang Zao put away the silver-white object in his hand and outlined the sniper rifle decorated with gold. In the distance, a headless monster was slowly falling down. The flesh on its neck was burnt brown as if it had just been burned by high temperature, but the cut was very smooth, with a strange beauty.

"It feels like your attack method is getting closer and closer to that of an elven ranger."

"If you're only talking about long-range attacks, they are indeed very similar, but I don't think the arrows shot by ordinary rangers are more powerful than mine."

"Converting magic into ammunition, the power can be doubled just by compressing it."

Jiang Zao gave Kailu a thumbs up and said, "Girl, you have good eyesight. In order to mislead others, I even deliberately designed the weapon to be very exaggerated to attract attention."

"So this is the function..." The corners of her mouth twitched slightly. No wonder the appearance of the weapon in his hand became more and more like a work of art after each improvement. It turned out that he had already started designing it to confuse the enemy.

"Just think about it, if the enemy tried his best to knock the weapon out of my hand or destroy it, and he was secretly proud of himself, and I suddenly took out another weapon, what kind of expression would he have?"

"...You have a terrible character."

"When facing an enemy, your words are the best compliment to me."

Ever since the two of them made a pinky promise, their relationship has eased a lot, from just knowing each other to the point where they can complain to each other. Kael is no longer as lifeless as she used to be. With the fragments of her memories from the Food Hall, her words and actions are gradually getting closer to her former self.

Jiang Zao was very happy to see this change. After all, it would definitely be more comfortable to have a tsundere cat-eared girl around than a low-pressure cat-eared girl. Everyone wants the atmosphere around them to be more relaxed and cheerful.

While the two were talking, a loud noise was heard in the distance, and the ground beneath their feet seemed to shake because of the noise.

Looking in the direction where the sound came from, Jiang Zao pinched his chin and thought for a moment, then decided to go over and take a look: "Kailu, let's go over there."

"Do you really want to go over there? The monster that could cause this kind of commotion could be a lord-level monster."

"Although the monsters here are generally stronger than those outside, I have killed lord-level monsters before. Let's see the situation first."

"Okay." Kailu said, picking up the magic wand and casting a spell on the two of them: "Invisibility!"

Although this magic is called [Invisibility], it cannot make objects invisible. It only reduces the noise and magical fluctuations. Jiang Zao had complained before that it does not fit the name and it would be better to call it [Silencer].

They quickly rushed to the source of the sound and saw two grizzly bears of similar color and height fighting each other on the ground. The only difference was that one had a scar on its left eye while the other did not. The originally flat ground was smashed into a huge pit by their exaggerated physical strength during the fight.

Scar-eyed Grizzly Bear was grabbed by his opponent's waist and suffered a German Bridge throw. The force was so great that the pit sank several meters further.

Jiang Zao's eyes almost popped out. He actually saw a bear with fighting skills in a different world. Would he also see a cat that could do everything except catch mice, and a black and white mouse wearing red overalls?

Seeing his surprised look, Kailu explained, "These are the Grumpy Bears. They love to use this strange method to decide who is the leader. What we see now should be the new generation challenging the leader."

"Don't they have magic?"

"No, they are the original monsters of the Red Dragon Volcano. Their bodies are extremely strong, and the defensive power of their fur can even make holes in poor quality weapons."

"Anyway, it seems that we have not been noticed. Let's keep watching. Maybe we can take advantage of the situation when both of them are losing."

"Ah."

The battle in the pit continued. Scar-eyed grizzly bear pulled its head out of the soil, roared angrily, and extended its sharp claws emitting cold light from its broad paws, and swung towards its unsuspecting opponent.

"Zi La~"

The fur that Kael said could make holes in ordinary weapons was easily cut by her sharp claws like a piece of thin paper, leaving three wounds and purple blood spurting out.

After a successful attack, Scar-Eyed Grizzly immediately took advantage of the victory and, while the grizzly bear on the opposite side was still wailing in pain, he threw several big punches on its head, knocking it to the ground. Its originally powerful roar turned into groans.

Jiang Zao pointed at the scar-eyed grizzly bear who was using war trample to humiliate the loser and asked Kailu: "Is using claws considered a foul?"

"Ah?" She was a little unresponsive.

"I say, using claws in a hand-to-hand fight like this should be considered a foul, right?"

"Well... In theory, that's true, but they are monsters, so they can't follow human rules, right?"

"Don't worry about the details!" Jiang Zao grinned, condensed a rocket launcher from the air and carried it on his shoulder: "Let me show you what saturation bombing is."

“The World!”

Twenty rocket launchers, seventeen grenades, and numerous sniper laser bullets filled the sky above the pit. Their target was the two dominant and violent bears below.

As the fingers snapped, the pit suddenly became as lively as if firecrackers were being set off. All kinds of explosions and flames filled the pit, and roars were mixed in, but they were quickly drowned out by other sounds.

Jiang Zao felt that it was still not safe enough, so he threw a few plague grenades that were improved through the study of life force into the pit. Compared with curse and poison magic, this kind of grenade was more effective and more lethal. Under his intentional control, the spread was zero. It can only be said that ancient magic was really useful.

Chapter 312: Boss Peeping at the Screen

Jiang Zao originally thought that this was a good opportunity for him to pick up something good, but he didn't expect that while the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole is behind it, and he is the mantis!

The familiar pressure from the overlord-class monster instantly pinned Kael to the ground. The red dragon flapped its wings and slowly landed at the edge of the pit created by the violent bear. It looked inside at its younger brother, who had turned into two pools of rotten meat. Its light golden vertical pupils stared at the human who was still standing straight and facing it.

It’s strange that he is not affected by the pressure. Could he be a special person like a “brave man” or “hero” that has newly appeared on the continent?

This red dragon has not left the volcanic area recently, and has had little communication with the rest of his brothers, so it is inevitable that he is not well-informed. Adhering to the principle of rather killing the wrong person than letting the one go, he decided not to care about the killing of his brothers in his jurisdiction, and quickly reported to the boss that a special person had finally come to the volcano.

The hurricane-like force winds rolled up by its wings made it hard for people to open their eyes. The red dragon landed and left inexplicably, as if it just came to take a look at Jiang Zao and the others.

Although he could not feel the pressure, Jiang Zao still felt a certain amount of stress facing the overlord-level monster. The combat instinct he developed during training told him that he would be in danger of death if he faced the red dragon in front of him. Fortunately, it left without doing anything.

This sudden meeting set off alarm bells in his heart. If he didn't speed up the pace of improving his strength, not to mention the mutated red dragon, the dragon's subordinates could easily crush him to death. He had made an agreement with the girls that he would definitely bring back pure dragon blood, and he couldn't go back on his word like that.

Jiang Zao pulled up Kailu who was lying on the ground, and brushed the dust off her clothes. He didn't even care about the materials of the lord monster in the pit, and left without looking back to prevent the red dragon from coming back to find them.

......

"Boss! I saw a special human who dared to come to our volcano!"

In front of Lighthi, the red dragon was the size of a chick. It was staring at me with its pupils, and the tip of its tail twitched slightly in excitement. "What is a special human? Have you figured out his occupation and strength?"

"Uh... I forgot to ask. It's been so long since any human came here that I even forgot how to speak their common language. But since he can ignore my pressure, he must be on the same level as the 'hero'."

"Did you retain his scent?"

"Of course!" the younger brother said, raising his right paw and grasping it in the air. Two bubbles wrapped in mist slowly floated out: "I won't make mistakes in this kind of thing!"

After sensing the breath, Lighthi closed his eyes. An unknown wave emanated from it and soon covered the entire Red Dragon Volcano, and directly locked onto the location of Jiang Zao and Kailu.

It yawned in boredom, blinked its eyes, and a projection screen appeared in front of it, with the figures of Jiang Zao and Kailu in it.

"As expected of you, the boss. You're getting more and more adept at using projection perception." Red Dragon immediately flattered him.

It didn't know that this would be a slap in the back of Lighthi's butt. You have to know that as a mutant red dragon, it didn't have a high talent for learning dragon magic. Even the [Projection Perception] that every normal dragon has had took it ninety years of human time to study hard, just to be able to observe its destined opponent in advance one day.
