Chapter 360: Dancing with the Dragon
When Luna led him to the sky above the river bank, the thought that this was a trap lingered in Gavin's mind, because after the mercenaries assembled, they did not launch an attack for a long time, and they huddled by the Yewen Pond, then lit a large number of bonfires and placed a large number of burning materials in front of the formation.
At a glance, it was clear that they were preparing to attack with a fire arrow formation.
The enlightened tree army led by Broken Thorn also arrived at the river bank, less than 500 meters away from the enemy, and the advance speed was very slow.
The land here was all soft sand, and they would fall into a big deep pit with one foot, and they had to spend a lot of energy to maintain their balance.
"Stop attacking, disperse, all tree people, disperse."
"Pixie, right in front, entanglement, spread around them."
Gavin ordered loudly in the air.
Broken Thorn, who had already assumed a charging posture, stopped his action immediately.
Other enlightened trees also responded to Gavin's order.
The Pixies hiding in the treemen also took action, casting a series of entanglements in front of the battlefield.
Roar!
At this moment, a terrifying roar sounded above the Yewen Pond, and it was getting closer and closer.
A red figure appeared in everyone's sight.
"Red dragon! It's a red dragon! An adult red dragon!"
"It's the trouble of the East Road, yes, it must be him."
"Hasn't he been causing trouble in the East Road? Why did he come to the Battle Valley?"
"Of course, he must have been attracted by the huge wealth of the previous auction. Such a huge wealth would tempt even a kind dragon, not to mention the red dragons who are famous for their greed."
"How did he know about the auction?"
"Of course? It must have been done by those shameless merchants in Sembia. This is what they do most often. It is said that this red dragon accepted their employment because they never robbed Sembia's caravans on the East Road. Those merchants said that it was because of the offerings to him. I think they are just snakes and rats."
"That's right, the appearance of the nameless mercenary and the red dragon together is definitely not a coincidence, but an appointment in advance."
Bursts of screams rang out above the Yewen Pond.
When these unnumbered mercenaries rushed to the beach, they consciously avoided the halfling boat village.
But they were still shocked. Most of the houseboats had already left the shore and sailed into the Yewen Pond.
"I knew it wouldn't be so simple. So the killer is here." Gavin showed an expression of "I see", patted Luna's neck and said, "Do you have the courage to rush up?"
"You want to fight it in the air?" Luna was shocked.
She knew Gavin was brave, but she didn't expect him to be so brave. The other party was a dragon, at least a young red dragon.
"If you don't dare, I can understand. Just send me to the sky above it." Gavin was not provoking, but discussing tactics.
Not everyone has the courage to dance with a dragon.
"The lord is not afraid, so what should I be afraid of?" Luna's expression was not fear, but excitement.
Not everyone has the opportunity to dance with a dragon.
"Please put on this equipment. I need to concentrate." Gavin took the opportunity to take out the giant necklace.
He didn't take the opportunity to threaten, but he really needed precise operation.
He was ready to use the same trick to deal with Sanobar's move.
"Please, Lord, help me hang it on my neck." Half Moon Colt did not refuse, but focused on flying.
Dancing with a dragon is equivalent to dancing with death. The mind must be highly concentrated and no mistakes can be made.
"Okay." Gavin completed the operation quickly.
Luna activated the saddle on the giant necklace without hesitation, and did not rashly activate the giant transformation technique.
The former just put an extra saddle on her back, and she would be able to adapt after flying for a while.
But giant transformation is different. The flying speed may not be increased much, and the sensitivity may be reduced, making it easier to become a target for the enemy.
The two sides flew at high speed, and the approach speed was amazingly fast.
Just after the dressing was completed, the two sides were already close.
Gavin activated the dragon vision glasses at the first time and collected the opponent's surface information.
Vitality: 222 (18D12+108)
Size: Extra Large
Attributes: Strength 29, Agility 10, Constitution 22, Intelligence 14, Perception 15, Charisma 14
This is a peak youth red dragon.
It is two age groups older than the young Roderick, but the strength of the two is very different.
The biggest difference is that the youth red dragon has already opened up the ability of fierce momentum.
Also called terrifying majesty, this is a special ability.
Before facing the adult dragon, you need to face his overwhelming terrifying pressure.
Once the fear in your heart is aroused, you will fall into a panic state, and your body will tremble and jump uncontrollably.
Gavin is not worried about himself. Not to mention his profession, he is best at this.
The most important thing is that he has enough trump cards in his body. Whether it is the Dragon Oak Mother Tree or the Vizeme Manor, they can provide him with assistance when fighting against this mental pressure.
What he is worried about now is the half-moon colt. The level of the two sides is too different.
Bravery alone is not enough, because this is a special ability that involves magic.
Experienced people will know that when you are on the edge of a cliff, the trembling of your body due to fear will not be controlled by the brain, but by the secretion of hormones in the body.
Luna is obviously in this situation.
Gavin can clearly feel that as the distance between the two sides approaches, her flying speed is affected and her body begins to tremble, which is a precursor to being controlled by magic power.
Without hesitation, Gavin directly communicates with the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, and the overwhelming life force, using himself as a channel, is poured into Luna's body.
Luna is the premise for him to dance with the dragon, if he does not rely on her flying speed.
With his own energy dragon wings, unless he can double his speed, he will not be able to catch up with the young red dragon.
"Good!" Half Moon Colt couldn't help but neigh and cheer loudly.
The cold power of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree circulated in her body, and the fear caused by the influence of magic power disappeared without a trace, and even the speed increased by 30%.
Even the special ability of natural blessing was activated.
The ability of Nature's Blessing, which enhances its speed and endurance, comes from the natural power of those trees.
The life force provided by the Dragon Oak Mother Tree is comparable to that drawn from hundreds of trees, so it is natural to activate this ability.
"Looking for death!" There was a strong disdain in Slaksata's eyes.
As mentioned before, Gavin's dragon vision glasses are imitated from the unique perspective of dragons.
The power of peeping at other creatures is an innate ability of dragons, and it is even deeper than the dragon vision glasses.
Although Gavin looks a little unusual, especially the figure of the giant tree that exudes the breath of nature just now, it can't change the fact that he only has four professional levels.
He didn't even use the dragon breath, but slightly adjusted the direction of travel and rushed towards Gavin.
He was confident that he could knock this ignorant Pegasus Knight down to dust with one claw.
"Trust me, rush forward." Gavin said to the half-moon colt.
Battle armor.
Crown shield.
Death Roar.
Gavin finished dressing in an instant, and pointed at the young red dragon with a Death Roar: "From now on, you are my mortal enemy."
Luna did not reply, but answered Gavin with actual actions.
The flying posture did not change at all, and rushed towards the young red dragon.
If both sides did not adjust their posture, there would be a big collision in the air.
Luna was in the Hammer of Justice Monastery, and what she heard and saw was the purest way of the holy warrior, which is also the way of the knight.
She knew very well what a mount should and should not do.
The core of it is to absolutely obey the orders of the knight.
Otherwise, it is not one person's life that is sacrificed, but it is likely that one person and one mount will lose their lives.
Slaksata obviously felt something strange, as if there was an invisible force surrounding him.
It was a bit like divine magic, and a bit like law.
But the two sides were already close, and he could not afford to think so much.
He just flapped his huge wings hard and rushed towards the other side at a faster speed.
Boom!
When the distance between the two sides entered ten meters.
Gavin pulled the trigger decisively, and Death Roar let out its usual terrifying roar, while roaring to Luna: "Pull up."
Hiss!
The half-moon colt used both wings and four hooves at the same time, and its body was pulled diagonally to a higher place.
Ah!
The young red dragon screamed miserably.
He paid a heavy price for underestimating the enemy.
At such a close distance and with such a large body, Gavin had no chance of shooting off target.
One shot directly hit its right wing, near the root.
The physical + magical double damage of 5D8+5D6 (35-70) was too much for even a young red dragon to withstand, especially the relatively fragile wings.
The keel of the right wing was obviously broken by the explosion, and the flight action was deformed, and it began to slide down uncontrollably.
It was just that the distance between the two sides was too close, and they were also counterattacking.
Even if one tried desperately to pull up, the other was sliding down.
The distance between the two sides was still closing uncontrollably.
Luna's horse eyes showed a trace of despair. If her calculation was correct, she would not only be unable to avoid the red dragon, but would be sent directly to the dragon's mouth.
He didn't even need the flame dragon breath. It was estimated that he could bite off most of his body with one bite.
The young red dragon had obviously calculated this point. His eyes flashed with ferocity, ready to give the opponent a hard blow. It was not as simple as biting off half directly, but biting them directly and giving them a full-round attack in the air to take them away in one wave.
However, his keen perception sounded the alarm for him.
The dragon's eyes accidentally turned to the Pegasus Knight. The expression on his face was not fear, but a successful conspiracy. The strange weapon in his hand was aimed at him again, and his mouth moved, obviously saying the same words as before.
That strange feeling once again enveloped its body and mind.
A chill surged into Slaksata's heart.
The attack just now landed on the dragon's wings, which had such terrible lethality. If it was aimed at the eyes or even the throat, and then this attack came, he simply couldn't imagine what would happen.
The young red dragon didn't dare to launch an attack. He folded his wings and lowered his head. He didn't even dare to collide with him, and directly passed under the man and his horse.
He acted decisively.
This was completely beyond Gavin's expectation. He had just replaced the Crown Shield with a sharp spear and had no time to jump.
The half-moon colt was even more confused?
She was in the game and could not see Gavin's little movements.
She only saw the young red dragon gave up a great opportunity to attack and fled in a panic.
"Chase, stick to its back." Gavin said while vibrating the energy dragon wings and began to fly in coordination with the half-moon colt.
Under normal circumstances, the flying speed of the young red dragon is higher than Luna, especially when carrying a knight.
But now, the young red dragon is obviously in an abnormal situation.
Although the broken dragon wing did not make him lose the ability to fly directly, the continuous stinging seriously affected his flying movements and his flying speed dropped greatly.
The young red dragon, who was afraid of the terrifying lethality of the death roar, did not dare to let Gavin get close to him and rolled left and right.
Taking full advantage, the half-moon colt carried Gavin and turned without his agility.
Then a strange scene appeared in the air.
The previously arrogant young red dragon was frightened and fled away in a panic just after a brief encounter with Gavin.
