The surrender of the Dark Forest meant that Dafei's Eagle Dynasty had its first territory in the Emerald Dream. Even if he was not optimistic about them, he still had to at least understand them.
So Dafei and the others descended in front of the huge black tree. The ancient black tree said, "Your Majesty, thank you for your kindness. Where there is life, there is death. Where there are bright flowers, there is rotten mud. Our existence is death and decay. This is the law of nature. We should not be judged by evil or not … "
Dafei nodded. "Existence is reasonable. I am going to conquer a crystal mine soon. Tell me, is there anything you can help me with? Don't bother with ordinary soldiers. Show me your true abilities! "
The ancient black tree said in a deep voice, "I am willing to activate an avatar to serve Your Majesty!" After saying that, a black light shot into the sky. A demon tree that was as tall as two people broke out of the ground.
— System Notification: You have obtained the construction creature 'Nightmare Demon Tree Statue'!
— Nightmare Demon Tree Statue: Construction Creature, Divine Weapon, Defense 500, Durability 200,000, Special Skill 'Nightmare Domain'. In the Nightmare Domain, enemies have a certain chance of receiving 'double damage', 'Misfortune', and 'Fear' effects. Dream creatures have a double chance of receiving these effects. Can be equipped in buildings, squares, and bow positions.
… …
A divine weapon statue with a special domain skill? Dafei was really excited. How many years had it been since he had obtained a bow statue? Speaking of which, the bow statue of the Soar ship had always been the six-headed Siren Skylar statue that was only used against sea monsters. It was really too outdated. It was time to change it!
Such a timely equipment update made Dafei very happy. "Okay, immediately ship it!"
Dafei was overjoyed and conferred a high ranking official position to the ancient tree, but he did not know what it was.
The ancient tree was also very happy. "Your Majesty, there is a swamp in the forest. It is connected to the Dark Swamp of the Death Mountain Range on the Surface World. This passage is open to Your Majesty at any time!"
Death Mountain Range? The famous mining area in the China region? There are swamps there? F * ck, it really has the same depth as the Forest of Ancients. But I'm very busy with the sewers and ponds, so I'm not interested in them.
Then, Dafei checked the tribe's assets. There were about a dozen tree demon barracks and things like beetles. They were all ordinary facilities that Dafei didn't pay much attention to. But, brother, have you forgotten the most important meaning? This is considered a wood mine, right?
Dafei asked the ancient tree, "Can we harvest the wood here?"
The ancient tree trembled and said, "If it's to clear the path in the forest, we can harvest a limited amount of trees. If it's for long-term development, please be merciful, Your Majesty."
Dafei replied, "I have always been very far-sighted. Don't worry."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
That's right, they were still counting on this forest to continuously regenerate new dark energy so that they could harvest the leeks. But if there was a need, they should still harvest some trees, build some simple houses, and settle some residents here. God knows if there will be players like the Eight-Nation Alliance attacking my territory in a few years?
In short, after the inspection, Dafei boarded the ship again and went straight to the crystal mine that was first discovered. For Soar, which was in urgent need of resources, this battle was extremely crucial.
An hour later, Soar finally floated to the destination. They saw a huge lake with a large pile of crystal mountains at the bottom of the lake and around the shore!
Dafei was excited. Even though Dafei had obtained countless artifacts, the number of mines that he had discovered so far could be counted on one hand. The earliest mercury mine was monopolized by him. Now, it was continuously earning profits every day. Its existence was the source of confidence for Dafei to owe debts. As for the Blood Sea Jadeite Mine, there was no need to mention it. It could be said that he had been cheated by Makar. Two days ago, there was no need to mention the sulfur mine at Hell's Gate. It was given to the Kingdom of the Elves in exchange for the Jade Gate.
All in all, the value of this mine was far greater than the artifact that Dafei had obtained. Then, for a mine discovered in the 'Realm of the Gods', its defensive power must be extraordinary. Dafei was already prepared for a fierce battle.
As they got closer, the appearance of 'Flight' alerted the other party. A deafening roar resounded through the air, and then Da Fei saw a group of gigantic lizard-like monsters in the fog, their bodies glowing with a crystalline luster.
Zavala was shocked. "Crystal Dragon!!!"
Dafei was shocked. "Dragon?"
Zavala said in a deep voice, "Yes. Unlike ordinary elemental creatures, these creatures are born in crystal mines that are rich in energy. Their bodies are made of crystals and are indestructible. They have the main characteristics of the dragon race — Dragon's Might, Fear, and Dragon's Breath. So, even the dragon race has to admit that they are dragons. Their only weakness is that they can't fly. Otherwise, they would be unimaginably powerful. They are the fastest and strongest ground creatures recognized by the dragon race!"
— System Notification: You have obtained information about the rare dragon race 'Crystal Dragon'!
Just as Zavala was speaking, Dafei's radar suddenly exploded. Dozens of Crystal Dragons rumbled over like buses. Then, they lined up outside of Soar's firing range and raised their heads to take a deep breath.
Zavala was shocked. "It's Crystal Dragon's Breath. Sir, quickly activate your Domain to block it!"
The next moment, Soar's Dark Domain and the newly acquired Demon Tree Domain were activated at the same time. Then, Dafei personally rushed to the deck and activated the Holy Frost Domain!
As the multiple Domains enveloped the entire ship, the group of Crystal Dragons spat out a row of magma-like torrents that bombarded the light shields. The rising flames from the explosions engulfed the entire Soar. Countless damage values of tens and hundreds burst out from the hull of Soar!
Dafei was stunned! There really was a monster that could attack air, and it was a super long-range one at that. How similar was the damage of this Crystal Dragon's Crystal Rocket Launcher?
Then, more and more 'Mobile Rocket Launchers' joined the battlefield. Dozens, hundreds! Only then did Soar float into the range of the attack.
Dafei was exasperated. "Fight back!"
As the World Tree Fortress fired thousands of arrows, a large row of 'Piercing Damage Reduction' and 'Physical Damage Reduction' popped up on the row of Crystal Dragons. Not a single one of them died! And this was a wild monster without a hero leading it? And this was the result of Dafei's 1700 attack bonus?
Dafei could not accept it and personally locked onto the target. "Focus your firepower and attack one!"
This time, Dafei was not disappointed. Under the concentrated attack of the entire ship, a Crystal Dragon fell to the ground and turned into a large pile of crystals!
Zavala was surprised. "That's right, Your Majesty! As long as we destroy one, we can obtain a large number of crystals! "
So that's how it is! These Crystal Dragons are so fat! Dafei excitedly commanded again. "Destroy —"
However, there was a sudden change. As the first crystal dragon fell, the crystal dragons immediately realized the range of Big Fei. Those crystal dragons within the range of Big Fei retreated with high mobility. Those crystal dragons in the rear that were out of Big Fei's range continued to give full play to the advantage of long-range rocket launchers!
Dafei's jaw dropped to the ground. I've been kited?!
If it was on the surface, it would have been impossible for Soar Kite to do so. However, in this Emerald Dream where teleportation was difficult, Soar Kite encountered the most awkward crisis!
What should I do? Send troops down to fight them head-on? That's even more impossible! If the other troops went down, wouldn't they die even more miserably? Not to mention that they were the strongest and fastest Crystal Dragons on the surface, and they had yet to encounter a boss!
So, retreat? Would there be a situation where the enemy advances, I retreat, and the enemy retreats, I chase? According to the rules of the system, as long as I retreat out of their territory, they will not chase after me, right?
However, if I retreat, other than getting beaten up and losing the remaining power of Soar Kite, what else would I gain? If I can't take it down this time, I won't be able to take it down next time!
Unless I develop the Dark Forest tribe in ten days to half a month and form a dream army that can move quickly in the Emerald Dream? Maybe half a month won't be enough? One month? Two months? Perhaps my operation this time will be completely ruined because I can't take down this mine? What's worse, will Soar Kite die in the Emerald Dream because of running out of food and ammunition?
The more Dafei thought about it, the more he shuddered. Dafei suddenly felt that his operation this time was still too hasty!
Perhaps there was only one way, and that was to give up this place and go to the sea that Luo Er discovered to find new opportunities. However, the road ahead was endless!
Sea? Suddenly, Dafei's gaze returned to the crystal lake in the crystal mine! Dafei suddenly realized that his advantage was not in the sky, but in the water!
Of course, it was not a water battle. With the range of the crystal dragons, if he dared to stop on the lake, he would be surrounded by all the crystal dragons and die a terrible death! His ultimate move was —
Dafei immediately returned to the cabin and found the 50 sea priests that the Dark Tide Lord had sent along for research. "I want to sink the entire ship to the bottom of the lake. Is that okay?"
That's right, I don't believe that you dragons can still shoot at me if I hide in the water!
The priests replied, "If the water in this world is not too different from the water in other worlds, then there is no problem. However, the duration of the sinking will require a continuous supply of magic power, divine power, or resources from Your Majesty."
Dafei said seriously, "I don't lack magic power or divine power!"
Dafei then found Mermaid Warlord Dinessa. "Warlord, there is a large number of crystal mines at the bottom of the lake. After my ship sinks to the bottom, please go down and mine."
Dinessa gave a rare smile. "Mining at the bottom of the lake is my favorite!"
Dafei found Delia again. "Sorry to trouble Lady Sylanna, I want to go at the highest speed!"
"As you wish!"
Dafei found Typhon on the mast. "Do your best to send my ship to the lake!"
"Very tiring, alright!"
