Anyone who had climbed the mountain knew how difficult it was to walk.
Søren walked steadily, but it was a lot more tiring to carry someone on his back. The upper limit of his load was about 300 pounds. As long as the weight exceeded 300 pounds, it began to seriously affect his movement. Although Søren had a strong Constitution, his Strength was still only 14 points, which was similar to a normal human laborer who often worked hard. About 100 pounds of weight was still within his tolerance range, but the speed of his stamina consumption increased a lot. Basically, he had to take a break after walking for a while to ensure that it would not affect his explosive power in battle.
Under normal circumstances.
Adventurers needed to maintain their stamina above 70%, preferably between 80% and 90%.
The probability of encountering unexpected events in the wilderness was not low. Søren had encountered unexpected battles more than once, so he had always maintained his total stamina above 80%. Only when he felt a little tired, he would rest for a while to restore his stamina to more than 90%. They had begun to approach the range of the Ice Quetzalcoatlus. The danger of dragon subspecies was not to be trifled with. Søren did not want his stamina to be unable to keep up with the consumption before the battle even started.
There was a faint fragrance at the tip of his nose.
He couldn't tell if it was the fragrance of flowers or something else, but it smelled very comfortable. It had the unique fresh smell of a young girl. Occasionally, strands of hair would blow on Søren's cheek, making it slightly itchy. Princess Anna's breathing was very even. She seemed to be observing Søren's ears. She didn't know why she wanted to reach out and pinch them, because the more she looked, the more she felt that Søren's ears were a little pointy. She even reached out and touched her own ears.
He could feel two soft lumps on his back, twisting from time to time. Maybe she felt embarrassed. Anyway, after walking for a while, the slight friction had already made the girl's cheeks slightly red. It was not the kind of adult lust, but more of a girl's shyness. As the princess of Arendell, Anna's education was naturally very comprehensive. The current situation really made her a little shy. Sometimes, she would feel that the palms of her hands were very hot, making her feel inexplicably hot.
The wind and snow on the mountaintop were very heavy.
Søren's expression was still relatively calm. He was paying attention to the surrounding environment, especially the traces in the sky. The Ice Quetzalcoatlus could fly in such weather, and it could even launch a diving attack on its target. Occasionally, he would feel the girl on his back move, and he could vaguely feel a soft touch, but it was not enough to evoke any other thoughts. Not to mention Soran's own self-control and the current environment, just the knowledge of the Underdark had already made him invulnerable to water and fire.
Those drows' matriarchs and eldest daughters were all masters of seduction. How to charm males was even one of the main courses they learned!
It was just like how humans had to learn about geography and religion when they went to school.
Vaguely.
Søren seemed to have heard something in the cold wind. He carefully put down the girl on his back and said in a low voice, "It's about here. Find a safe place to hide and don't come out later. "
Ice Quetzalcoatlus.
It was one of the subspecies of the Quetzalcoatlus. It looked similar to the Quetzalcoatlus of the dinosaur era. It did not have dragon scales on its body like the pureblood dragons. It only had a layer of dragon skin, so the requirement to break its defense was relatively low. They had strong hind limbs, and their forelimbs were on the wing bones of their wings. They would fold their wings when walking on the ground. They were distributed in small groups on the mountaintops of cold areas. Generally, they were composed of one male and two female Quetzalcoatlus. Occasionally, their cubs could be seen.
It was difficult for dragons to reproduce. Quetzalcoatlus would only lay eggs about once every three years, and their distribution in the world was very loose.
"Ice Quetzalcoatlus [Subspecies] (Grade 4) (Gregarious)."
"Challenge Rating: 14, Monster Level: 17, Spell-Like Abilities."
"Highest and Lowest Attributes: 22 and 10. Total Attribute Points: 90-100."
"Special Abilities: Dragon Bite, Frost Breath, Dragon Wing Strike."
"Treasure Reward: 1.5 times."
"Challenge Difficulty: C +."
Søren found a stone gap on the top of the mountain. He calculated the size and determined that the Quetzalcoatlus could not get in. He whispered to the girl next to him, "Stay here and don't move. Remember not to come out later."
Hunting dragons was a very dangerous thing.
He would not be able to take care of the girl next to him when he started, so he had to tell her seriously.
Princess Anna's little face was a little excited, and she nervously clenched the long sword in her hand. She whispered, "Don't worry. I won't go out and make trouble for you. "
Very good.
Søren nodded slightly and then began to prepare.
It would be suicidal to challenge the Ice Quetzalcoatlus in a one-on-one fight. A single dive from the Ice Quetzalcoatlus could directly kill a Tier 4 professional. These Quetzalcoatlus could weigh about three tons, their length was about seven meters, and their wingspan was about five meters wide. Their strong limbs allowed them to flap their wings, and their strength was enough to push an adult Mammoth back several meters. If they hit a person's body, it would be useless no matter what armor they wore. Even rare grade equipment couldn't withstand such a fierce force, which could directly break a person's spine.
The Strength of the Quetzalcoatlus was between 20 and 22 points, and its real lethality was much higher than other creatures of the same strength.
However, dragons also had a disadvantage, that was, most of them were not very agile.
Some pure-blood dragons only had 10-15 points of agility, and their size determined that their flexibility would be reduced a lot.
The biggest advantage was that they could fly!
Søren took out the javelin and reassembled the metal head of the javelin with tools. It was best to use a steel weapon to deal with dragons, and it was better to weigh as much as possible. He fixed the javelin on his back to ensure that it could be pulled out and thrown in an instant, and then began to prepare other tools. It was a trap tool that was a bit like a tripwire. Søren simply fixed it with an iron chain, and then turned it a little in his hand. This thing was a bit like a horse lock, but it was made of metal and longer. There were balance balls at both ends, which could temporarily restrict the flight of the Quetzalcoatlus after it was thrown out.
The resistance of dragon-type creatures was very high.
Venom had little effect on them, so Søren did not waste the expensive Wyvern Venom. He only loaded the crossbow and hung it on his waist.
Then, he glanced at the girl next to him and turned into the snow.
"Be … Be careful! … "
Princess Anna watched Søren's back as he went away. She opened her mouth to say something, but she swallowed it back again. She shrank a little, clasped her hands in front of her chest, lowered her forehead slightly to her fingertips, and murmured as if she was praying, "Snow Goddess! Bless him to come back safe and sound! … "
The snow on the top of the mountain slightly affected his vision.
During this season, the Ice Quetzalcoatlus would not hunt often. They would reduce the frequency of hunting to about twice a week.
Søren did not enter Stealth because the footprints on the snow were too obvious. The nest of the Ice Quetzalcoatlus was also in a very difficult place to get close to.
The sound in front of him was getting more and more obvious.
Søren turned around a rock, and a steep mountain wall appeared in front of him. It was about fifteen meters high, and on top of it was a simple dragon nest made of various shrubs and branches. It looked like a huge bird's nest. In the middle of it was a huge Quetzalcoatlus, and next to it were two smaller Quetzalcoatlus. He also seemed to see a dragon egg, which was undoubtedly a good thing. If there was a dragon egg, the Quetzalcoatlus would not rush over like a swarm of bees, and it would be much easier for Søren to deal with them.
The Ice Quetzalcoatlus was gray-white, and their eyesight was very good. After laying eggs, they would watch every corner vigilantly.
It was not difficult for them to find Søren.
Sneaking in a special environment might not be able to hide from them. The hatching Ice Quetzalcoatlus was full of aggression. After seeing Søren in front of him, the male Ice Quetzalcoatlus roared. The sound sounded like a language, as if warning him to leave immediately. The dragon subspecies did not have much wisdom. After finding that Søren did not move at all, the male Ice Quetzalcoatlus immediately spread its wings and flew up, setting off a large gust of wind and snowflakes, directly flying dozens of meters in the air.
The attack of the dragon subspecies was very fierce.
But the general pattern could still be grasped. The male Ice Quetzalcoatlus circled in the sky and swooped down toward Søren. When it opened its bloody mouth full of sharp teeth, it directly spat out a cold frost. This was the first attack of the dragon subspecies. More than half of the dragon subspecies liked to use Dragon Breath to destroy their enemies.
The Ice Quetzalcoatlus swooped down very fast. When it was ten meters close to the ground, it opened its mouth and spat, then flapped its wings fiercely and flew back into the air.
This was the critical moment to fight against the Quetzalcoatlus!
Although they looked like wild beasts, they were very cunning and dangerous. Adult Quetzalcoatlus rarely landed to fight with the enemy. They would hover in the air and only dive down when they found a chance to attack. The force of this dive was so great that even a close legendary Shield Warrior would be injured. The Quetzalcoatlus was always looking for a chance to kill the target with a dive.
Only when they had no other choice would they fight on the ground!
If Søren wanted to deal with them, he had to force them to come down. In order to force them to come down, he had to resist the Frost Breath. When a strong stench hit his face, he suddenly twisted his body and moved away a little. Then, in an instant, he threw out the chain in his hand. Søren's left arm was frozen into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye. Half of his body was covered with frost, but the chain in his hand was also thrown out quickly. After hitting the Quetzalcoatlus's narrow neck, it wrapped around the claws of the Quetzalcoatlus's left wing.
This was not the kind of chain that tied the Quetzalcoatlus up. It was just wrapped around the Quetzalcoatlus's wing bone.
The Ice Quetzalcoatlus was not injured.
But its flight path had completely changed. It could not fly at all even if it desperately flapped its wings. It almost flopped down from a height of more than ten meters, and then hit the cold rock on the ground with a bang.
At this time, it was really injured. The injury was more serious than when Søren cut it!
