Bang!
As the last Quetzalcoatlus fell to the ground, Søren couldn't help but stand up while gasping for breath. He then clenched his teeth and pressed his arm, almost dislocating it from the Quetzalcoatlus' attack. In front of him were three Quetzalcoatlus that were killed. One of them just came back from hunting, and there was also a zebra that was killed by it at the foot of the mountain.
"How are the casualties?"
Søren moved his arm and then turned around to look at his men. Just now, someone was knocked down by the Quetzalcoatlus near the dragon's nest. This place was hundreds of meters from the foot of the mountain, so it was basically impossible to survive.
A small pirate leader counted the number of people and said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency! Four are dead and seven are injured. "
"Yes." Søren nodded silently.
This number of casualties was still within the acceptable range. After all, they were dealing with a dragon subspecies. The possibility of no casualties was too small.
A Quetzalcoatlus gave him nearly 5000 Slaughter EXP. Cleaning up here gave Søren nearly 30,000 Slaughter EXP, which was enough for him to level up his wizard profession.
However.
For the time being, Søren still had to hold back because he had already received the [Proficient Spellcasting] ability twice. If he received it again, he would be able to directly master the metamagic ability.
The progress of casting in battle was relatively slow.
However, if he mastered the [Proficient Spellcasting] ability, the speed of casting in battle would also increase. Many abilities were complementary to each other.
There were so many Quetzalcoatlus corpses that they couldn't transport back quickly.
Søren could only bring them back first and then arrange for his men to transport them back. This small matter would be taken care of by the pirate leaders below. Søren himself took the five dragon eggs back. After dealing with these Quetzalcoatlus, the camp should be completely safe. Unless there were some dangerous creatures that migrated here, there shouldn't be any attacks in the near future.
In the camp.
Søren just came back and saw the followers of the Priest of Riches. They were obviously also observing this place, but because of Søren's ban, they could only secretly observe the layout of this place. The location of the shadow fissure was close to the warehouse, and no one was allowed to casually approach it. At most, they could only observe the situation of the south and east gate.
"Brother?!"
Not long after Søren returned, Vivian appeared.
Today, she was wearing a black princess dress, and her beautiful long hair was tied up in a bow. Her big round eyes looked around restlessly when she came in, and then her gaze fell on the dragon eggs that Søren had neatly placed on the table. Behind the little girl was the petite cat girl. Today, she seemed to be very well-behaved. She was a little nervous as she followed behind Vivian. She was not as relaxed as she was yesterday. He didn't know if it was because the little girl in the black princess dress gave her a lot of pressure today, or if it was because of some other reason.
"Eh?"
The little girl widened her eyes and looked around. Then, she raised her little head and said, "Big Brother! Are these all dragon eggs? "
Shit.
When Vivian opened her mouth, Søren knew that this was bad. He knew that the little girl had always wanted to raise a majestic pet. Now that she had seen these dragon eggs, she might even want to raise one.
"Aiya!"
The little girl skipped closer to the table and reached out her white little hand to touch the eggs. Then, she cheered, "They really are dragon eggs! I've always wanted to raise one! "
"Big Brother, you're the best!"
Muack.
Vivian stood on the chair, tiptoed, and kissed Søren on the cheek. Then, she hugged the dragon egg and ran outside.
She ran as fast as the wind!
According to the little girl's judgment, there was a 90% chance that Søren would not agree to her raising such a dangerous creature. However, she had always wanted to raise a majestic pet. In the end, she decided to ignore everything and run away with the dragon egg after kissing her brother. When the baby dragon hatches in two days, her brother would probably not object.
"Wei! … Vivian! … "
Søren opened his mouth to say something but stopped. In the end, he sighed softly.
He was indeed worried about letting the little girl raise a dragon, even if it was a sub-dragon species. Dragons had hereditary memories, and sub-dragon species were born with a wild nature. It was not as if they would treat whoever hatched them as their parents the moment they saw the egg. That was the plot in the bards' stories. In reality, the dragon egg would let the baby dragon attack as soon as it hatched. The dragon's hereditary memories would teach them their instincts. The real taming of dragons was done with spells and brainwashing.
"It's okay."
Gloria's figure appeared outside the door. She was wearing a long black dress, and her hair was casually tied up with a hair band. After entering the door, she glanced at LuLu who was sneaking out. Then, she said to Søren, "With Vivian's current strength, raising a sub-dragon shouldn't be dangerous."
"If it's a pure-blood dragon, it might be a little dangerous."
She walked to the table, glanced at the remaining dragon eggs, and said softly, "Are you planning to tame them?"
Søren nodded slightly and said, "That's an idea."
Gloria reached out and touched the dragon eggs, then frowned slightly and said, "This one has no breath of life. It's very difficult to tame dragon creatures. Only the people of Dragon City know the secret. Maybe it's easy to hatch them and control them, but it's quite difficult to make them listen to orders. "
Søren pressed his palm on the dragon egg that Gloria pointed out. Sure enough, he found that the breath of life was quite weak.
There was no way to hatch this dragon egg.
Even if it was a pure-blood dragon's egg, there would be some that could not hatch.
Sometimes, it was similar to eggs.
When a nest of dragon eggs hatched, the proportion of baby dragons born in the end could only be regarded as average.
Søren put the dragon egg aside and replied, "Let's try it first. The Drows have the skill to tame petrified lizards. During this time, they relied on me to provide them with materials, but only sent a team of Drows to work. It's time for them to do something, and at the same time, test the attitude of those female Drows! "
"If these female Drows still don't understand the situation, they can't blame me for being merciless!"
Speaking of this, Søren's eyes flashed with a cold light.
Gloria raised her hand and gently lifted her long hair, looking a little worried, and said, "The Drows are a race used to conspiracy and betrayal. I still can't trust them. You'd better be more careful! "
The underground creatures did not trust the surface creatures, and the surface creatures did not trust the underground creatures.
Søren did not speak, but nodded gently and said, "I know. They can't make any waves. If they do anything, I'll erase them immediately. "
Gloria gently nodded, then took out a scroll and handed it to Søren, and said, "During this time, Vivian and I have been studying how to arrange the teleportation circle to connect to the Shadow Plane and decipher the mystery of this magic scroll. The little girl's talent is really amazing. Even I am surprised by her learning speed. I'm afraid it won't be long before she can completely surpass me. "
"The deciphering of [Melf's Minute Meteors] has been completed."
"This is a copy we made. The spell has been analyzed in words that you can understand. However, there is still a paragraph in the original version of the secret text that we haven't been able to decipher. It doesn't seem to be part of the spell, but more like an improved technique of an arcanist. For the time being, Vivian and I haven't been able to decipher it. It's a text created by an individual, so it will take a long time to fully understand it. "
Text.
There were many languages in this world. When a wizard's strength reached a certain level, they also liked to create their own secret text.
For example, if you drew a twisted wavy line, it would be a wavy line in the eyes of others, but in the text you created, it would mean something else. This kind of secret text created by a wizard was the most difficult to decipher. Unless the corresponding spell book was found, or some special ability was used to understand it. So even Gloria, who had a lot of knowledge, couldn't decipher it in a short time.
"Finally, the deciphering is complete!"
Søren reached out and took the scroll in front of him, then nodded and said, "Very good. I'll memorize it as soon as possible. "
Gloria's arrival was a great help.
Vivian spent more than a month to decipher the spell [Melf's Minute Meteors], but not long after she came, she had completed most of the analysis. Søren was quite looking forward to this spell.
"Okay."
Gloria smiled and looked at Søren, then turned and left the hall.
…
Night fell.
Søren went back to his room after making some arrangements for the night watch.
He carefully spread out the magic scroll in front of him, then picked up a quill and copied on the snow-white paper. The white paper was filled with dense symbols, and he finished writing a stack of white paper. Only then did he rub his forehead and sigh.
"Why is it so hard!"
Søren felt a little dizzy. He got up and opened the window to get some fresh air, then sat back down.
The difficulty was too high!
Although this was only a level 3 spell, Søren felt that it was harder to master than a level 5 spell.
He studied for half a day, but he couldn't even complete the prototype of the spell model. At this rate, it would take at least half a month to memorize it. It seemed that there were very few spells that were so difficult for him to learn since he became a wizard.
The night passed quickly.
Søren almost didn't sleep all night. He only put down the quill and rested for a while when it was close to dawn the next day.
The progress of the spell model analysis was less than 3%. There was a pile of paper on the table that was nearly ten centimeters thick with all kinds of symbols and words. Søren rubbed his forehead to relax his nerves, then he began to memorize the spells that he had mastered in the past.
The sky was just beginning to brighten.
Søren got up and left the room to practice the spells. When he had just finished using all the level 1 spells, the long-awaited prompt finally appeared:
"Ability improved!"
"After a long period of practice, you have obtained some information about the ability [Skillful Spellcasting]."
"You have mastered the ability [Skillful Spellcasting]!"
