Dragon Hunt
The "Black Dragon Attack" was also one of the highest priority contingency plans that the Black Dragon City leadership had prepared long ago.
Upon receiving the attack alert, Rein and a group of top combatants immediately gathered at the library in Black Dragon City.
This library is Master Cavo's Magical Saint Artifact, the "Valenda's Order Shackles." It is the strongest Magic Tower in the Ice Ridge Wasteland, containing the best teleportation array.
Rein and the others planned to use Magic Array to teleport there.
The exact location of the Tomb of the Black Emperor has been determined, but it is far from Black Dragon City.
Even if you ride a dragon at full speed, it will still take more than half a month to travel that distance.
Fortunately, Black Dragon City is not lacking in high-level magic resources.
The engineers set up sentry posts and teleportation arrays in many hidden locations in the wasteland.
The library's teleportation array allowed them to reach the vicinity of the valley where the black dragon roamed in an instant.
Many of Black Dragon City's top experts will be participating in this "Dragon Hunt Operation".
Rein, Master Cavo, Guy, Bazel, Canossa, the Great Shaman Mafat, the top warriors of the Kolman Tribe, and the secret mechanics of Black Dragon City.
Against a black dragon that possesses sixth-tier combat power even under the constraints of the laws, the numerical advantage of low-level Transcendent is meaningless.
There weren't many qualified people; only about twenty or thirty in total.
Rein is the only Fourth Tier Transcendent in the support team.
Of course, he was able to go not because he was the city lord.
It's not because he's incredibly strong in combat right now!
After two years of arduous training, although Rein's current Transcendent realm has not yet broken through to the fifth rank, his combat power has already surpassed that of the vast majority of fifth-rank Transcendent.
Under the shadow of legend, there are almost no rivals.
Moreover, it's not that he's not qualified to break through to the fifth rank.
Instead, he deliberately held back his cultivation level.
Two years of diligent and secret training with Canossa had allowed him to grasp the true meaning of the "Power Law," and his battle qi and muscle refinement had long since reached the level required to break through to the fifth rank.
It can be said that as long as he takes the Gene Potion, he can immediately advance to the fifth rank.
But the Great Shaman Mafat said that there was a saying passed down in their Kohlman Clan.
The more "laws" one comprehends before advancing to the Fifth-tier Extraordinary, the more unexpected gains one will receive after the advancement. This also increases the likelihood of becoming a god in the future.
The Great Shaman Mafat himself was a top-tier expert who had comprehended both the "Power Law" and the "Magic Law".
The dual laws allowed him to cultivate both magic and martial arts, giving him near-invincible combat power.
Rein's main cultivation is based on three laws: the "Power Law" for body refinement, the "Lightning Element Law" for battle Cultivation Method cultivation, and the "Healing Law" for advanced magic potions.
Each of these three laws is a complete sequence of laws passed down from the "Seventy-Two Divine Generals" that can lead to the divine rank.
For an ordinary Transcendent, comprehending even one of these skills would be considered an exceptional talent.
But now, Rein has an excellent opportunity to try to comprehend more laws.
His secret training with Canossa allowed him to easily comprehend the "Power Law";
Furthermore, the Kolman Tribe's [Thunder Totem] and Thunder Raven "Pika" are the best auxiliary mediums for comprehending the "Thunder Law." Anyone who possesses either one would receive a tremendous boost in their comprehension of the law, greatly increasing their chances of success. Rein, however, possesses both. Through two years of arduous training, he has already grasped some of the essence of the "Thunder Law," and comprehension of the law is just around the corner.
Even with the "Healing Law," Rein's understanding is deepening, and he thinks that with some time, he will have the opportunity to comprehend it.
Given the current situation, it is possible for him to simultaneously master three kinds of Law Power before advancing to the Fifth-tier Extraordinary!
That's why he wasn't in a hurry to advance to the Fifth-tier Extraordinary.
Of course, Rein would go on the "dragon hunt" not only because of his combat strength, but also because he is now the strongest doctor in Black Dragon City and even the entire Ice Ridge Wasteland.
His ability to bring the dead back to life is even stronger than that of the Great Shaman Mafat.
If a wounded soldier is brought to him with even a breath of life, it is almost certain that his life will be saved.
This "dragon hunt" is bound to result in casualties, and no one is more suitable to be a doctor than him.
Just moments after the alarm sounded, the powerful figures of Black Dragon City began to appear at the library entrance.
When they met at the library, Rein encountered Bazel he hadn't seen for almost a year.
This guy recently went to Sid to take revenge on his old enemies. He also took the opportunity to relocate the few remaining survivors of his werewolf clan to Black Dragon City.
Because Rein was also often in deep meditation, the two didn't see each other much after he returned.
When Bazel saw Rein, whom he hadn't seen in a long time, he immediately noticed his unusual behavior and exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, Rein, when did you learn such a sophisticated technique for concealing your aura?"
"I haven't slacked off in my cultivation, senior. I had already grasped the truth when you went to Sid."
Rein responded with a smile.
He can now completely conceal his aura, and looks just like an ordinary person.
"Is that so?"
Bazel's large face showed a suspicious expression.
He hasn't even learned this secret technique of concealing one's aura from a single legendary figure, yet you, a mere Fourth Tier guy, have?
Could it be that strange talent again?
The werewolf's mind made him hesitate for a moment before he realized that the secret technique seemed somewhat familiar.
Then Bazel saw Canossa, who was also keeping her aura under control in the group, and suddenly a thought flashed through his mind.
Hmm.
I remember this secret technique wasn't exclusive to President Canossa?
The relationship between Rein and Canossa was known to almost everyone in Black Dragon City.
Even if they knew, others still respected City Lord Rein and wouldn't make fun of him.
Only Bazel, being so outspoken, blurted out, "You and President Canossa Kanosa... you...
"."
Looking at that lewd expression, Rein rolled his eyes and said helplessly, "I did indeed learn this secret technique from Lady Canossa."
"Oh"
Bazel, of course, was unaware of the wonders of "secret practice".
The man's eyes darted around, and then he suddenly realized something, revealing a look of sudden understanding. He blurted out, "You guys have learned the secret cultivation method on that stone carving?!"
The feeling of soul connection that the secret ritual was known only to Rein and Canossa, the two people involved.
However, that's just how the LSP's brain works; they always attribute certain causes and effects to certain lewd things.
Bazel had seen the stone carvings in the temple before, so he naturally knew about the secret methods of cultivation.
Then, as if by some strange twist of fate, he connected the fact that Rein had learned the Canossa arcane technique to that place.
And then, by sheer luck, it actually worked out!
"."
Rein's eyelids twitched as he listened.
Admitting such a thing in front of so many big shots would be embarrassing, even for someone with a thick skin.
Canossa, on the other hand, looked completely calm.
She smiled sweetly, then took Rein's arm and readily admitted, "Yes, Mr. Bazel."
"."
Now it was Bazel's turn to have a strange expression.
He glanced at Rein, then at Canossa, and then thought of the aloof Princess Oma and that little girl Wudo, from Kolman.
Those eyes were deep and mysterious, as if they could speak.
Pah! I knew you were a sleazy doctor!
Not long after.
Once everyone was assembled, the magical light from the teleportation array slowly began to glow.
The group of figures vanished into thin air in the secret room of the library.
The reason why Rein and his men valued the black dragon was not only because it was a potential threat to Black Dragon City.
The more important purpose was the Black Emperor's tomb!
Now we know that above the Fifth-tier Extraordinary, there are sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth levels.
They then faced a new problem.
That's the exclusive sequence potion for advancing to High-tier Extraordinary!
Those Transcendent individuals who can cultivate to the fifth rank are almost all inheritors of a specific lineage of the "Seventy-Two Divine Generals" sequence.
There are currently no recipes of level six or higher, nor any high-level potion materials, on the Ice Ridge Wasteland.
If they want to advance in the future, they must leave this misty land.
Moreover, to break through to higher levels, one must also have Gene Potion.
Even if they obtained a few finished sixth-tier magic potions from the captured extraterrestrial thieves, they would be of little use to the people of Black Dragon City.
Not to mention it wasn't an exclusive advancement potion for the "Seventy-Two Divine Generals Sequence. Even if it were useful, that kind of "inferior" potion simply wouldn't meet their needs.
Therefore, Rein and his team tried every means to find the exclusive formula.
They speculated that the complete "Seventy-Two Divine Generals Sequence" potion recipe might be found in the Tomb of the Black Emperor!
Almost at the same time the teleportation array lit up, near the "Water Marsh Canyon" tens of thousands of miles away from Black Dragon City.
In a secret underground outpost dozens of meters deep, magical runes lit up on the altar.
More than twenty figures suddenly appeared.
"Lord City Lord, you have arrived!"
The Black Dragon City soldiers stationed there saw Rein and her group and came forward to greet them.
Rein nodded to everyone and asked, "What's the situation now?"
The leader of the subordinates reported, "That black dragon just attacked our camp, and we suffered heavy losses. It seems to be hunting in the wasteland now and hasn't returned to its cave. Elder Wudo and the others are tracking its movements."
"Um."
Rein nodded, implemented the pre-prepared hidden plan, and said to those around him, "Proceed according to Plan A: set up the trap. If we fail to capture that black dragon this time, retreat according to Plan B."
"Yes, Lord City Lord."
At the command, everyone sprang into action.
The safest way they could think of to deal with the black dragon that they already knew was to set a trap.
Fortunately, Black Dragon City is not short of magical materials, enough for them to set up some very powerful magical traps.
The group landed, and the accompanying mechanics donned their combat suits.
There are ten mechs in total, each nearly twenty meters tall, and all of them are armed with giant shields and clad in heavy armor.
Although Grandpa Tuster did not come, Black Dragon City also used its trump card for this "Dragon Hunt," which is these ten "legendary" mechs!
Since the black dragon is known to be able to easily tear through steel plates and breathe Dragon Breath, these mechs are specially equipped with a layer of enchanted mithril armor with extremely high magical conductivity.
Regardless of their combat power, these ten mechs are definitely more durable than any Transcendent.
If these Steel Giant can't hold back the black dragon, then there's no point in fighting this battle.
Just then, Blue-tailed Hawk flying high in the sky spotted Rein and his group.
Before long, a group of Kolman Warrior rode earth dragons and quickly arrived from the distant dense forest.
At the head was none other than Wudo!
From a distance, Wudo spotted Rein and excitedly greeted him, "Doctor Rein!"
Compared to the Stone City, the Kolman Tribe warriors preferred the wilderness.
Aside from necessary combat readiness, they would stay in the city. Most of the time, the soldiers were either out hunting or on their way to hunt.
Clearing land was Kolman Warrior's favorite job.
Of course, as the "Elder of Ten Thousand Beasts" in the tribe, Wudo often accompanied the hunting teams on their outings, often for ten days or half a month at a time.
She is Black Dragon City's "strategic treasure," and only she can tame these unruly dragons.
Because of the need to explore the western basin, which is densely populated with High-tier Demonic Beast, Wudo has not returned to Black Dragon City for more than half a year.
Upon seeing Rein, Wudo was overjoyed; her radiant smile could be seen from afar.
She jumped off the Snow Mastiff, and then, just like every time they met, leaped up from a distance to give Rein a big hug.
"Doctor Rein, I miss you so much!"
Wudo is as innocent as a little girl; she speaks her mind.
He seems carefree and thoughtless.
"I miss my Wudo too."
When Rein hugged Wudo, he awkwardly realized that she was taller than him!
More than half a year ago, the two embraced like this, and Wudo could still hang on his neck like a koala.
But now, even with Wudo's legs wrapped around Rein's waist, he could clearly feel that the body in his arms was a head taller than him.
With the priests and elders of Mafat present, Wudo couldn't linger in Rein's arms and reluctantly put her feet down on the ground.
She stood up, blinked her big eyes at Rein, and seemed to realize something, saying, "Doctor Rein seems to have gotten stronger again?"
Rein smiled and then realized that Wudo was already over two meters tall!
Those long, shapely legs were incredibly eye-catching. The brown leather shorts did nothing to conceal them, and her tanned skin was very pleasing to the eye. Years of exercise had given her round, full hips.
Tall, but not thin.
Over the years, Wudo's once flat-chested body has become deeply ravine-like and shaky. She can no longer be called a "little girl" at all.
Her figure was as well-proportioned as a cheetah's, exuding a wild charm.
Although it seemed that Wudo had a lot to say, Rein didn't want to gossip in front of everyone.
He asked, "Wudo, where is that black dragon?"
Wudo pointed to the valley to the west and said, "It just hunted a few magical beasts. It's probably full now, so it's flown back to its cave to sleep."
Looking in the direction Rein Wudo pointing, at the snow-capped mountains, the system immediately identified that it was the location of the Black Emperor's tomb in the mural.
He said, "Let's go, let's go to the camp first, and you can tell us the details while you're at it."
Wudo nodded. "Okay."
"We've tried traps, but they're not easy to execute. That black dragon is highly skilled in command; my initial estimate is that it's no less capable than us humans, and it's also very cunning."
"There's another major problem with dealing with it: its flight speed is extremely fast, almost three or four times that of our dragon mounts. Once it's spotted, there's absolutely no chance of escape."
"Moreover, the black dragon's Dragon Might is terrifying. Any flying magical beast would be terrified and completely lose its ability to fly in the face of its Dragon Might. Therefore, it's impossible and pointless for us to fight it by riding a dragon."
"However, the good news is that after discovering our presence, the black dragon doesn't seem to be going far from its cave. We speculate that there might be something guarded by the black dragon in that cave."
"."
After listening to Wudo's account, the expressions of Rein and her group became solemn.
A cunning black dragon whose wisdom is no less than that of a human.
It seems that there are not many options other than a head-on confrontation.
