Chapter 231 Missing Fragments, Egg of the Demonic Dragon [Please subscribe]
Demon Hunter is very recognizable from its name.
It is also straightforward and highlights the key points.
That's "Demon Hunting."
As for the Hawks, they should be a faction within the demon hunter force.
For example, magicians will also be subdivided according to the element system they are good at.
The spellcaster who came with the team this time was of the wind type.
However, Chen Xuan was not clear about the specific abilities and differences of the hawk-sect demon hunters.
But what is certain is that the demon hunter force will never be an unknown existence.
Since the other party had the strength to ban the Black Demon Dragon Baile hundreds of years ago.
So even if it is not famous now, relevant records will inevitably be left.
After Chen Xuan planned to return to the city, he asked Ahn'Qiraj Lord to search for relevant information using the keyword "witcher".
His intuition told him that this force called the Demon Hunter had great potential.
It should be a good hand in dealing with monsters.
After squinting his eyes and thinking for a moment, Chen Xuan quickly came up with an idea.
The closure of the Naloa continent is relative.
After all, this is a very vast continent, with multi-ethnic backgrounds and an environment full of cruel fighting.
Under such circumstances, various forces or heroes will always be born.
As time goes by, many of them have been transformed into relics or some kind of hidden inheritance.
What Chen Xuan has to do is to slowly unlock the secrets of this world.
Looking at the eagle head mark on the edge of the stone platform, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.
After two or three minutes of silence, he looked back.
Then he raised his hand and put the thick chains about a hundred meters long into the spliced storage compartment.
Gray meteorite iron comes from the gray demon moon and is a rare exotic metal.
Regardless of whether a special melting method can be found later, it is always right to put it away first.
As a means left by the hawk demon hunters, as long as relevant inheritance information can be found, these chains made of fallen iron can be reused.
Several chains take up a lot of space in the storage compartment.
They are hard and heavy, coupled with the ability to suppress chaotic magic.
That's why Baile, the Black Demon Dragon, was able to be suppressed.
After handling the chains, Chen Xuan took out the spare mobile phone, turned on the camera function, and carefully took pictures of the traces of runes remaining on them.
The texture of these stone platforms is not ordinary stone, but a material called magic stone.
This material is common in Naroa.
Its characteristic is that it can isolate the perception of spiritual power to a certain extent.
After Chen Xuan took away the chain, a very deep pit appeared on the stone platform.
God knows how the hawk-sect demon hunters cast the chains of fallen iron into the magic-patterned stone platform.
The depth of the pit is more than ten meters.
From this point of view, those magic stone platforms should be stone pillars embedded in the rock foundation.
Chen Xuan quickly came to a conclusion and tried his best to record these details.
Ten minutes passed, and after everything was properly handled, he ordered to enter the ruins cave.
The entrance to this cave is very spacious, allowing the black dragon to pass through with its membrane wings gathered.
He didn't bring many people in, and only sent three squadrons of garrison to start the attack.
This cave is hidden in the misty canyon, and its history is as old as the time when the Black Dragon was banned.
The air in the cave is relatively dry, and there are no obvious odors or traces left by monsters.
Chen Xuan had some guesses about this, but he had no words to express it.
It's just that his expression became more calm and calm.
The garrison squadron walking in front carried magic spotlights, and the bright beam illuminated the roof of the cave.
The first half of the journey was relatively gentle. After advancing for about a hundred meters, the passage began to slowly extend downward.
No monsters appeared to stop them along the way.
So everyone moved forward very quickly.
Under such circumstances, it only took seven or eight minutes to reach the underground ruins.
Chen Xuan followed the team leisurely, silently observing the situation in the passage.
Just as he guessed, the state of this cave was not normal.
To be precise, its situation is somewhat special.
It has neither been destroyed nor reset, nor has it lost the ability to transmit through the channels of descending monsters.
In other words, this is a cave where monsters cannot be "spawned out".
But the ritual altars located here are basically normal.
This can be seen from the fact that traces of monster activity in the canyon are concentrated in the first half.
As for where those monsters came from, Chen Xuan guessed that they should be the result of some kind of recruitment ceremony.
You must know that in addition to the characteristics of cross-domain arrival, cave altars are another important factor. They often have flashy abilities.
Strengthening, recruitment, construction of large-scale formations, etc. can all be achieved through ritual sacrifices.
The only consumables required are the flesh and soul of the Naroa natives.
Combining the concepts of the Gate of All Origins and the Demonic Descendants, it is not difficult to see that the aboriginal people living in the Naroa continent possess the mysterious power needed by the outside world.
This power drives the monsters to plunder.
Billions of demon descendants came one after another.
They have already occupied every corner of the Outland.
It reproduces rapidly like a disordered tumor.
Then it was quickly consumed during the invasion of the Naroa continent.
Chen Xuan has never been to Outland, but he can imagine how big Outland is.
After all, even the isolated continent of Naroa is so vast, so the outer realm with more land will only be bigger.
Thinking in his mind, he followed the outpost team to the cave hall.
This is the core area of the catacombs.
What catches the eye is a hall with an area of several thousand square meters.
More than a dozen altars were arranged in various places, arranged in a strange formation.
All altars project huge black beams of light straight upward.
These beams are the key to forming the medium-sized void transmission channel.
They are able to penetrate the barriers of rock walls and appear to be incorporeal.
Chen Xuan did not destroy these altars immediately, but frowned slightly and used [Insight] to observe them respectively.
【Skinning Altar】
[Bone Eviscerating Altar]
[Eye and Tongue Altar]
[Soul Absorbing Altar]
...
[Grey Flash Altar]
...
The surfaces of these altars exude a dense blood light.
It seems that it should be the energy required to maintain the activation of the altar.
Except for the [Gray Flash Altar] which is in a dim state, the other altars are all being activated.
The seven altars that emit beams of light towards the sky and maintain the void passage and the dark mandala light curtain are mainly [Skinning], [Evisceration] and so on.
After a cursory observation, Chen Xuan quickly came to a conclusion.
Each altar has traces of damage and repairs.
Repairing the teleportation array should be one of Ansetus' tasks as a tool man over the years.
With the guidance of the magic dragon, it is not impossible to repair the altar.
At best, there are some difficulties in collecting materials.
But Ansetus was controlled by the dragon for nearly ten Naroa years.
This time is enough for him to solve the problem.
Without delving into the matter of repairing the altar, Chen Xuan immediately led everyone to search the entire hall and found a wedge-shaped passage leading deeper.
After passing through this passage, he saw a gray portal formed by two magic pillars.
Not far away, there is a special area force field suspended in mid-air, isolated by a black cubic light curtain.
There is a faint oval outline more than one meter long floating in the cubic light curtain.
Below the force field is a small altar embedded in the rock base, which seems to have no sense of existence.
Chen Xuan just glanced at it and focused on the gray portal.
This is an iconic thing in the cave.
As far as he knew, almost all caves relied on this kind of portal to complete the arrival of monsters.
It's just that the gray portal here is different from the ones in other caves.
There are no continuously rotating spatial ripples in its middle.
The gray light is like a dead lake, without any fluctuations.
Chen Xuan observed carefully.
The golden reminder was refreshed in the mind,
[The demonic portal that has lost the Rose Key fragment]
[Due to the missing fragment, even though the magic pillar still maintains the spatial anchor point, this portal has lost the effect of spatial connectivity]
… ...
Seeing the information fed back by [Insight], Chen Xuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"The fragment of the Rose Key is missing?"
"Could it be the handiwork of the Eagle Demon Hunter?"
The fact that the gray portal contains fragments of the Rose Key is no secret to Chen Xuan.
The phantom of the Rose Key in his mind can absorb the fragments and improve his abilities.
But now it seems that someone has taken the lead.
It cannot be ruled out that the fragments of the Rose Key here were taken away by the demon hunter force that banned the black dragon.
This may mean that the witcher has some kind of ability related to the Rose Key.
Of course, in addition to the above reasons, there may be other situations.
In any case, he already knew the reason for the abnormality in this cave.
In fact, it was damaged here, but the damage was not complete.
Even a little rushed.
Otherwise those altars would not have been repaired.
And the gray portal will not be passed down to this day.
As long as the magic pillar is removed and the spatial anchor is destroyed, the portal will cease to exist.
This reminded Chen Xuan of another possibility.
That means that those who destroyed the catacombs and banned the demon dragon may not be the same group of people.
Shaking his head, he got rid of these distracting thoughts for the time being.
Now hundreds of Naroa years have passed since the incident.
If compared to the years in Blue Star, that would be more than a thousand years.
What happened back then has long been settled.
After so many years, it is useless for Chen Xuan to be anxious. It is better to relax, stay calm and investigate the truth.
It's a pity that the magic dragon has died long ago.
Otherwise, you should be able to ask some questions about the situation back then from its mouth.
It’s just hard to do that.
The demonic dragon was so powerful that Chen Xuan could kill it violently, but he could not suppress or subdue it.
It would be even more difficult to forcefully interrogate him.
It would be most satisfying to simply kill them directly, and it would also eliminate possible hidden dangers.
After confirming the situation here, Chen Xuan stepped in front of the gray portal.
He stretched out a hand and gently touched the teleportation light curtain without any ripples.
Unexpectedly, a new prompt appeared.
[An intermediate portal leading to the outer realm of Naroa, missing the fragments of the Rose Key] [
Fragments of the Rose Key x 6 can be injected to awaken the portal]
[Yes] [No]
...
The operation is two-way.
Since it can be absorbed and fused, it can also be reinjected.
The specifications of this gray portal are much higher than those of micro and small caves.
It needs to be infused with six Rose Key fragments to awaken it.
Chen Xuan decisively chose [No] and at the same time withdrew the arm that was touching the portal.
The original intention of destroying the magic pillar was restrained.
This silent portal can be considered to be retained.
It would be a good choice to wake it up when the time is right and use it to spawn monsters.
After all, monsters can produce magic cores and magic materials.
However, the level of this portal is not low, and Chen Xuan will only choose to wake it up when he is absolutely sure.
After deciding the destination of the portal, he then walked towards the cubic force field.
As soon as he squinted his eyes, relevant information suddenly appeared.
[The hotbed ritual force field that nurtures the Black Demonic Dragon's egg]
[The Black Demonic Dragon's egg: The Demonic Dragon Baile Tobias Croadi was born five hundred and seventy-six Naroya years ago The eggs are being nurtured in the hotbed ritual altar. Since they have not been watered by the essence and blood of the demon dragon's mother body for a long time, the vitality in the dragon eggs is in a dormant state] [Break the altar below to release the hotbed ritual force field
]
… …
After quickly reading the subtitles, Chen Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
"The...egg of a demonic dragon?"
I didn't expect that there was an egg of a demonic dragon here!
Doesn't this mean there is a chance to hatch a little black dragon?
Chen Xuan's mind instantly became active.
As a superior creature, dragons are not only physically strong, but also have extremely strong fighting capabilities.
It is one of the most popular mounts.
A real man must ride a dragon.
However, the real dragons in the continent of Naroa are not visible, and the demonic dragons are cruel and difficult to tame.
Dragon eggs mean the opportunity to realize your wish to ride a dragon!
Ophelia is a half-baked magic tamer.
She once briefly introduced Chen Xuan how to tame monster cubs.
Compared to contracting to tame adult monsters, cubs are much easier to tame.
Chen Xuan planned to take it back first and then see how to deal with the dragon's egg.
As for the watering of the black dragon's essence and blood, it is not a problem.
The dragon corpse has already been disposed of.
Several buckets of blood essence were extracted from the huge heart.
These blood essences contain extremely surging energy and are themselves a valuable raw material.
You can draw high-level magic circles or refine alchemical potions.
Through the encapsulation of the magic circle, it can be stored for a period of time.
After putting away the dragon egg, Chen Xuanzai searched every corner carefully.
A dragon scale the size of a shield was found.
This dragon scale is not a scale, but has been changed into some kind of token.
The information fed back in [Insight] is [Dragon Puppet Soldier’s Order].
This thing can be used to control the dragon puppet soldiers in the canyon.
Except for the dragon puppet soldiers who first entered the canyon.
It is not ruled out that there are more dragon puppet soldiers in the canyon!
