Dragon Slaying Plan
"Brandon?"
Roger was quite surprised to see the name.
He never expected that he would still be involved with this guy after the Raging Sea Blood Vortex.
But thinking about it carefully, it's not surprising.
During the Raging Sea Blood Vortex, the Queen and the Reincarnation of Quinan collaborated, so it's perfectly normal for Brandon to have connections with the Sea Serpent Church.
According to Roger's observations...
Brandon didn't seem to realize that he was the Reincarnation of Quinan —a secret involving Celestial God-level, Roger instinctively didn't want to get involved in.
Why is this guy also eyeing Hongye?
However, Roger had not yet replied.
News came from Cecilia again. "It is said that a green dragon is running rampant on the border of the Country of Lyres."
Mr. Brandon couldn't stand it.
They wanted to take action and kill that green dragon.
However, he didn't have a suitable helper at the moment, so he came to us for help.
Didn't you want to slay a dragon last time?
I think you guys could form a team.
It wasn't a red leaf after all.
Roger pondered for a moment.
He felt something was off about the whole thing, so he tentatively asked:
"Do you have more detailed information?"
Cecilia readily sent over all the intelligence currently in the possession of the Sea Serpent Church.
After reading it quickly.
Roger fell into a long period of thought.
According to the intelligence report...
After leaving the Raging Sea Blood Vortex, Brandon returned to the Holy Alliance's interior with his three brothers.
They parted ways in the Country of Lyres.
The other three went north.
He was left alone to wander aimlessly in the south.
This guy made a fortune in the Raging Sea Blood Vortex incident.
So he spent his days immersed in the gentle embrace of girls, unable to extricate himself.
But a month ago.
Brandon encounters Messiah, the princess of the Country of Lyres, in "Hill Port".
Messiah, known as the ' Pearl of the Holy Alliance,' was naturally very beautiful, and her smiles and gestures captivated Brandon, a greasy, middle-aged womanizer.
After that, he tried every means to get close to the princess and eventually succeeded.
That night.
The two sides had a very pleasant conversation.
After going through stages such as "being unable to hold one's liquor", "being confused and infatuated", and "Accidental Discharge", etc.
Brandon woke up feeling utterly bored.
He saw the princess standing in front of the mirror, looking worried, and asked her what was wrong.
The Messiah then told him that a green dragon was wreaking havoc on the border of the kingdom.
The princess stated.
She was very worried that the green dragon would persecute the people of the border villages.
However, the Country of Lyres had been weak for a long time, and many lords held their own armies and were powerful, so she really had no way to organize a large army to fight the evil dragon.
Brandon, upon hearing her words, immediately felt his blood boil and declared that he was willing to slay the dragon.
Then he really did leave the capital alone to slay the dragon.
The subsequent story information is vague.
In short, this guy ran into a wall with the green dragon and could only sheepishly search for teammates everywhere.
It's a pity that my three most reliable buddies aren't here.
He searched for a long time.
They eventually found the Sea Serpent Church.
"This intelligence is absolutely outrageous. It's vague about the crucial details, but the parts about Brandon and Princess Messiah's intimate moments are described in a very vivid way..."
Roger shook his head after reading it.
However, his attention was quickly drawn to the location where the green dragon had been spotted, as indicated in the intelligence report—
Kachidun Mountain Village.
If he remembers correctly.
That was a mountainous area near the northern part of the Mist Shadow Mountain Range!
"Brandon is at least a backup plan for Quinan. He's definitely on the verge of being promoted after the Raging Sea Blood Vortex, otherwise he wouldn't be able to go toe-to-toe with the Big Serpent Bro..."
"Besides that old monster in the Green Dragon Mountain Range, is there any Green Dragon that he can't subdue?"
"This is unreasonable."
Roger's Sixth Sense told him.
That green dragon might also be related to the red leaves! After all, dragons have a very large territory.
Although the true form of Red Leaf is hidden underground in Drovas.
However, if a giant dragon were to appear around the Mist Shadow Mountain Range, it should be frightened away by its aura.
That green dragon definitely has a big problem!
This thought came to mind.
Roger replied quickly:
"Tell Brandon that I was moved by his infatuation with the princess and would be happy to work with him."
"Please give me a time and place to meet."
Roger had made thorough preparations.
But when it comes to slaying dragons, having multiple powerful companions can significantly increase the margin for error.
Roger was indeed willing to work with Brandon.
With Cecilia's help.
The two sides finalized the time and place for the meeting.
Roger quickly returned to the Jade Phoenix Nest.
The Mountain Protection Array showed no abnormalities.
Meanwhile, the Jade Phoenix Egg in the Ashes Field is also developing normally.
After repositioning nine Poison Mushroom around the Jade Phoenix Nest, both inside and out.
Roger did not set off immediately.
He chose to enter the Xia Yin Realm.
The Xia Yin Realm is now thriving.
Thanks to the little elf's efforts.
The seeds of the Xiang Nan Tree quietly took root and sprouted. This plant grows very quickly, with the tallest reaching half a person's height.
The wooded area is beginning to take shape.
On the other side.
A "Primal Stone Refinery" that doesn't occupy a very large area is also under construction day and night.
On the assembly line in the workshop.
Temporary Worker diligently refined the Primal Stone Ore that Roger had dug up.
Due to the limited capabilities of Temporary Worker.
Miniature Factory may not have high production capacity, but they are durable.
Temporary Worker can work 24 hours a day without rest.
The ore Roger mined was being consumed at an extremely rapid pace.
I believe it won't be long.
He could harvest several Warehouse ' worth of Rough Primal Stone!...
After a brief inspection of the two production lines.
Roger walked alone into the "gun workshop" next door.
This is a place where basic modifications are made to firearms.
It is currently Roger's private studio.
After going inside.
He took the Red Moon out of his Qi Aperture and placed it on a two-meter-wide workbench.
The next moment.
His right hand rested on the Tinder Pouch.
He pulled out 12,000 portions of Evil Ghost Essence in one go! Then...
He placed the Red Moon in his palm and rubbed it repeatedly.
Under the influence of Barehanded Forging.
The Red Moon seemed to have transformed into a highly flexible noodle.
In Roger's hands, it was constantly stretched and thinned.
Then it shortened and thickened...
After several times.
Roger stuffed a piece of Evil Ghost Essence into the 'noodles' and then increased the kneading force.
Very soon.
The essence seeped into the flour like water poured onto it.
"Barehanded Forging: You added 1 Evil Ghost Essence."
"The quality of Red Moon has been slightly improved."
that's all.
Roger began his ramen business, which continued indefinitely.
Barehanded Forging is extremely physically demanding.
However, smelting additives are actually a very basic forging process, so Roger was able to hold on with the support of bottles of Turtle Power Plus.
Three days later.
Through Roger's persistent efforts.
All 10,008 Evil Ghost Essence were integrated into the Red Moon Blade.
A golden light flashed.
A strong sense of pleasure welled up in Roger's heart!
On the data panel.
"Barehanded Forging: Red Moon (Transcendent) has been upgraded to Red Moon (Upgrade)"
After the upgrade, Red Moon gained 10 basic weapon points.
Roger then assigned the task.
Its final attributes are as follows:...
"Sharpness 20, Sturdiness 11, Weight 5, Balance 9, Durability 10"
When allocating points.
Roger continued the style that Red Moon had always been known for.
A sharpness rating of 20 is top-tier even among upgraded weapons.
Even the toughest monster can be cleaved in two with a single strike.
Besides that.
The upgraded Red Moon now possesses a fourth special skill and a new special effect.
Special Skill 4: Army Breaker
"Army Breaker: Consumes 20 layers of Blade Intent to launch a penetrating upward sword strike against enemies in a straight line within 1 kilometer."
Anyone hit by the air blade will suffer a 20-second 'burning' effect.
"Burning: Your health cannot be restored."
This is a very impressive special skill.
Suitable for individual breakthroughs.
It can also be used as a sneaky move to start an attack from a very long distance.
It is also the nemesis of certain vampire monsters.
The special effects are even more amazing.
Special Effects: Soul Eater
"Soul Eater: Red Moon can absorb the souls of those who perish under its blade and refine them into Soul Threads."
"Soul Threads: Every 10,000 Soul Threads can increase the base attribute by 1 point; every 1,000 Soul Threads can summon a Red Moon Ghost King."
When you use the Red Moon attack, the Red Moon Ghost King will launch a coordinated attack.
Note: Different grades of Red Moon Ghost King have different combat abilities. Every 3 Red Moon Ghost King can be combined into a 2-star Ghost King, and so on, with no upper limit to the number of Ghost Kings.
See here.
Roger only regretted that he hadn't completed the ascension for Red Moon sooner.
Otherwise, the strongest demon king would probably already be in his formation!
He has always liked things that can be stacked without limit.
However, considering the terrifying nature of exponentiation.
Roger estimated that he could raise at most a 7-star Red Moon Ghost King —that would require him to kill more than 720,000 monsters with the Red Moon.
Roger couldn't calculate any more than that for the time being.
all in all.
The improvement of Red Moon is still very significant.
Sharpness 20 means that the Red Moon is a terrifying weapon for any creature.
"It couldn't be more suitable for slaying dragons."
Inside the gun workshop.
Roger stretched vigorously.
He estimated the time and rested in the Xia Yin Realm for another ten hours or so.
Only then did they leave the Jade Phoenix Nest.
After Earth Escape is activated.
He swam continuously toward the northwest surface of the earth.
After the death of the God of Mist.
The Mist Shadow Mountain Range became no different from ordinary mountains.
Roger spent considerable effort to successfully unearth the artifact.
Immediately summon the Somersault Cloud and head north.
Not long after.
He then arrived smoothly at the agreed-upon location with Brandon.
That was a small village called "Piccolo" in the southwest of the Kachidun Mountain Village.
The village is sparsely populated.
Roger walked around outside for a couple of minutes when suddenly a child pointed at him and shouted, "Mr. Brandon?"
"Weren't you just flirting with Sister Mai Ya in the tavern?"
"How did you suddenly end up here?"
Roger paused for a moment.
He touched his face without making a sound.
Then I opened "bluff".
20 minutes later.
In the dilapidated tavern on the south side of Piccolo Village.
Roger casually sat down and greeted the middle-aged man opposite him who was staring intently at the waitress's chest:
"Mr. Brandon, we meet again."
"Ah... it's you! Bard."
Brandon looked at Roger as if waking from a dream.
He immediately said with a beaming smile:
"You've finally arrived!"
"I didn't know you were one of the Queen's people when we last met."
Roger did not correct the ambiguity in his words.
He simply said:
"I didn't know you were such a devoted person."
As he spoke.
He deliberately glanced at the busty waitress.
The waiter gave them a disdainful glare in return.
"Hahaha... It's nothing, the Messiah will understand."
Brandon reluctantly withdrew his gaze.
Immediately afterwards.
His expression turned extremely serious, and his voice became low and urgent. "Will you do it or not?"
"We'll see how things go."
"What's going on?"
Tell me your plan, and I will give you an answer.
Roger said casually, "I have to see if it's as reliable as Cecilia claims."
"Slaying a dragon is no small matter."
Brandon nodded in deep agreement:
"That's true."
"I searched for help in the south for half a month, and you were the only one who was willing to come to my door."
Seeing that he was somewhat tempted, Roger added, "Don't worry."
"I won't reveal your plans."
Brandon chuckled, "Actually, there's nothing to reveal."
"It's just a fully grown green dragon!"
"But this guy is indeed a bit strange."
"Let's find a secluded place first..."
Roger nodded happily.
10 minutes later.
In the grove behind Piccolo Village.
Roger's expression was somewhat complicated.
"... After they started fighting, in the chaos, I found an opportunity and killed him with a single sword strike."
Then we carried his head back to Hill Port.
Then I can openly and legitimately marry the princess—no, I have to change my surname, she doesn't know yet that in terms of seniority and blood relation, I am actually her cousin.
"Hmm, a perfect plan, isn't it?"
Brandon spoke with great excitement.
Judging from his appearance, it seemed as if he had already slain the evil dragon, married the princess, and reached the pinnacle of life.
Roger subconsciously rubbed his temples.
She silently walked to the side and said, "Let me think about it."
He tried hard to organize the thoughts in his mind.
Brandon's Dragon Slaying Plan sounded like child's play to him.
The various forces he mentioned in his dragon-slaying plan also left Roger completely bewildered.
After a brief review.
Roger quickly realized that the "Brandon Dragon Slayer" was not an ordinary matter.
Even more absurd is...
The forces behind this incident are actually connected to Roger! According to Brandon.
Roger learned an important piece of information—
Female Devil from the "Country of Chaos" is about to lead four thousand elite soldiers in a decisive battle against Earl Katchidon at the "Greywater River".
In order to defeat the evil army of the Female Devil.
Earl Katchidon secretly recruited the green dragon that was wreaking havoc on the border and promised it great treasures.
therefore.
In that war, the Green Dragons are very likely to appear as reinforcements.
Ironically.
"Kachidun Mountain Village" is actually the territory of the Country of Lyres.
The main thread behind this matter is:
The princess of the Country of Lyres commissioned Brandon to kill the 'evil dragon' under her lord's command.
This likely involves a power struggle between the royal family and the nobility.
That's fine.
What Roger cared about was—
How did Diana end up fighting with the Country of Lyres?! And why, according to Brandon, do people claim that the King of the Country of Chaos is a debauched and Ruthless and Vicious executioner? What exactly happened? "I just spent a few months mining underground..."
"Everything I encountered upon exiting was a pleasant surprise."
In the woods.
Roger eventually agreed to Brandon's outrageous dragon-slaying plan.
After determining the location of the decisive battle between the two armies.
Roger used the pretext of scouting the terrain.
They were the first to leave Piccolo Village.
It's a cloudy day today.
Roger Somersault Cloud.
Not long after.
He then arrived at the Greywater River Plain.
"Hint: You have discovered the military camp of the ' Country of Chaos '."
"You have discovered the military camp of ' Earl Katchidon '."
They found a secluded spot and concealed themselves.
Roger did not go straight to Diana.
Instead, they ran to the camp on the other side of the river.
The Earl Katchidon's army was of low quality, and their camp was poorly set up.
Roger even noticed that prostitutes and female goats were seen there.
With his stealth skills.
Naturally, they thoroughly explored the core area within half a day.
The camp was mainly composed of several thousand human infantry.
There were also two squadrons of Rangers.
This is already considered a good level in the relatively weak Country of Lyres the Organ.
But what caught Roger's attention most were the dozen or so tents pitched in the northwest corner of the camp.
It is a place rarely visited by people.
The soldiers seemed too afraid to go over.
A moment later.
He crept over and crawled into one of the tents.
A strong aura of demonic creatures wafted over us.
Roger looked closely.
But inside the welded fence...
One by one, the wolf-like monsters raised their heads at the sound of the wind.
They have vicious eyes and long jaws filled with huge teeth.
The spine arches and protrudes.
It was covered with sharp, bony Bone Spurs.
"Roar..."
A low growl sounded.
"Notification: You have encountered an ' Abyss Berserker '."
That's all for today, but I'll be updating very early tomorrow. Please remember not to open the latest chapter between 4:00 and 5:00 PM. I'll be trying a complete anti-piracy measure next, as the previous method had a significant impact on distribution channels and can no longer be used. I'll have to sacrifice half an hour of reading time; I hope you understand.
