Chapter 586: Jasper Mine

Jasper Mine.

It's a large metal mine on the edge of the Stonetalon Mountains.

There are two tribes of cave spiders and hill dwarves working hard in the mine. They obtained the ownership of the mine from Lord Chax at the cost of regularly turning in a certain amount of metal ore.

Such a resource-rich metal deposit is located under the nose of the dragon lord Chax, but he has almost turned a blind eye. Apart from mining a small amount of metal ore to create a magic armor stomach for the dragon men, there are almost no other uses.

As for building a steel empire, digging out precious metal resources and selling them to other worlds, this kind of trading thinking, sorry, has never appeared in the dragon lord's mind.

At that time, the reason why Chucks agreed to the dwarves and spiders to dig the jasper mine was more of a goal to concentrate on the associated resources of metal deposits--magic gems. For those black, heavy, and very space-consuming metal ores, Charles really, really didn't catch a cold at all.

However, it was these metal ores that Chucks hadn't paid much attention to at ordinary times, but at this moment they attracted a terrifying enemy that was hard to parry and hard to resist.

After listening to the report from his subordinates, Chucks, the second-level wind dragon lord, stood high on the isolated peak, holding the edge of the stone platform tightly with his sharp dragon claws, leaning forward slightly, proudly looking down at the jungle below him, raised There was a loud and long dragon chant from the neck.

Wherever the dragon chant rang, the entire mountain forest was in chaos.

Countless birds and beasts got out of their lairs, and fled towards the outskirts of Shuangfeng Mountain without looking back. And the dragonman camp at the foot of the mountain let out short and loud roars that echoed the dragon's chant. Immediately, groups of tall and mighty dragonmen dressed in metal armor and holding long-handled battle axes rushed out from inside in a neat formation.

The 102 violent dragonmen with Tier 1 combat strength, if you don't consider the dragon envoys scattered around to collect 'taxes', these dragonman warriors are already all the power that the wind dragon Chaks can gather.

The violent fighting spirit of the dragon warriors obviously deeply stimulated the wind dragon lord.

If the enemy just passed through the territory, Chucks might pretend to be deaf and dumb because of the power of the opponent. But now, the enemy looks like it is going to camp on the edge of its lair, which cannot be ambiguous in any case.

Therefore, leaning over to look at the fierce posture of his own dragon army at the foot of the mountain, Chaks the wind dragon once again raised his neck and let out a loud dragon chant that shocked the mountains and forests. Then he slammed his wings and slapped the huge blue-gray dragon wings behind him, and swooped down in the air with a kick of his thick hind legs.

Fenglong was originally the master of the sky.

When the heavy body weighing ten tons moves on the ground, it looks lazy and clumsy, but when it flies into the air, wrapped in layers of translucent wind barriers, the wind dragon's fearfulness and flexibility will be fully realized. Obviously!

When other giant dragons soar in the sky, they always give people a feeling of inability to rotate, but the wind dragon flies in mid-air, but it has the agility and flexibility of swimming fish and water.

The wind dragon Chucks swooped down, and his huge body suddenly pulled up when it was close to the ground. When passing above the dragon army, he couldn't help raising his head and let out a long and loud dragon chant.

The dragon army immediately became cheered.

Holding their huge and ferocious battle axes high, while saluting their lord, they let go of their four hooves and followed closely behind the wind dragon, rushing towards the jasper mine on the edge of the mountain range.

...

However, at this moment, the metal spider has transformed into a strange metal monster. Under the welcome of the hill dwarf's throwing ax and the cave spider's venom, it arrived at the entrance of the jasper mine without hindrance.

The entrance of the Jasper Mine, which is less than two meters high, is obviously not something that its huge size can enter and exit at will, so the metal monster stretched out a thick metal tentacle to block the entrance. A 30-member battle magic squad.

As for the little garbage hidden outside the cave, the little characters, the edge of the metal monster's iron and steel body suddenly cracked countless small openings, and metal projectiles were shot out from the inside.

Driven by mana, the goblin's Arcane musket has been rebuilt, and it has a terrifying lethality far beyond the past.

Wherever the terrifying metal projectile goes, it will pierce wood and smash rocks. Even hitting a thick mound can set off a huge dust column and leave a deep black hole in place.

The hilly dwarves, who were generally only 1.2 meters tall, obviously didn't have any good metal armor, so their flesh and blood were instantly smashed into a sieve by the rapid musket fire and lost their lives. Cave spiders, on the other hand, bounce flexibly and run extremely fast, and it is difficult for ordinary muskets to kill them in one blow.

Therefore, several passages were cracked under the huge body of the metal monster, and several spider puppets rolled down from it.

Spider vs Spider!

Two completely different spider creations fought outside the Jasper Mine.

The main weapons of cave spiders are sharp fangs, sharp limbs, and the spit of acidic venom. But these are almost no threat to the all-metal spider puppet.

The metal spider moved its clanking jointed legs, and quickly approached the opponent. A few metal pipes suddenly protruded from the disc-shaped protrusion on the top of the oval body, and then a series of powerful flames sprayed to the opponent. surrounding cave spiders.

Charcoal Grilled Spiders!

Almost instantly, the cave spiders gathered at the entrance of the Jasper Mine to guard their lair suffered heavy losses, and were roasted into piles of black coke by the hot flames.

After taking care of these obstructive 'garbage' with ease, Gazlowe's spiritual whispers echoed in the minds of all wizards.

"Sit down, I'm going in..."

With more than a dozen mechanical arms inlaid with high-speed rotating drill bits protruding from the metal monster, the mine where the Jasper Mine is located has obviously encountered a terrible catastrophe.

Amidst a piercing roar and the forceful squeeze of the metal monster, a huge hole was pierced through the mine, and the body of the metal monster disappeared little by little in a huge cloud of dust rising into the sky.

Just as the metal monster was digging hard into the depths of the mine, a long and loud dragon chant suddenly came from the depths of the Stoneclaw Mountains.

Accompanied by the dragon's chant, there was also the slight tremor of the earth and the deafening roar of the earth.

The wind dragon and its army of dragonmen have arrived!

"It's up to you to deal with them!" Greem pondered for a moment, and gave the battle order to Gazlowe: "The existence of wizards, if you can, try not to reveal them!"

"Understood!" Gazlowe is obviously much more obedient now than before: "It's just a Tier 2 dragon, I just beat it away..."

With its status as a Tier 3 brain monster, it's really not bragging to say such big words.

Relying on the metal monster and the magical weapons hidden in the monster's body, it is really easy to deal with a tier 2 wind dragon that has just grown up. If the terrain is suitable, it is even possible to capture the opponent alive.

Therefore, after receiving Greem's order and authorization, the metal monster not only did not stop its continuous digging, but even sped up its pace, which meant that it would escape underground early.

The wind dragon Chucks flew high above the Jasper Mine, staring down at the mess below him with jaw-dropping eyes.

It doesn't feel sorry for these worthless miners, but is extremely surprised by the viciousness of the enemy. The other party seemed to have no intention of living in peace with it, the dragon lord, and wreak havoc on the mountain here as soon as it came up.

Looking at the other party's appearance, it seems that he wants to dive headlong into the veins below the mine.

Under the crazy drilling of the huge metal monster, a large hole with a diameter of 100 meters has been dug out of the mountain on the outward side of the mine, and half of the opponent's body has been submerged in the mine.

dammit dammit dammit...

Chucks cursed wildly.

The opponent's actions clearly ignored its existence.

For a giant dragon lord, this is undoubtedly an act of slapping the face with the red alder fruit!

Unable to bear it any longer, Chaks the Wind Dragon roared, retracted his wings, and swooped down from a height of 500 meters with his thin and lean dragon body like a sharp sword.

The dragon is coming!

Of course, every move of Chaks the Wind Dragon in the sky cannot be hidden from Gazlowe's spiritual perception.

Seeing that the opponent started to dive, Gazlowe stopped his digging work, commanding his huge body like liquid metal to prepare for battle.

The manufacturing facilities contained in the metal monsters were sent to the inside of the mine, and most of the magic weapons were transferred to the side exposed outside the mine.

The metal body, which was still uneven just now, has become smooth as a mirror, like a metal city wall, integrated with the mine. Numerous holes were suddenly cracked on the city wall, and the muzzles of black holes were exposed, aiming at the huge figure that was getting closer.

This... what is this

The hunting wind howled.

The body was still on the way of diving, and the huge dragon eyes of the wind dragon Chaks had already stared round, looking at the other party's strange behavior for some unknown reason.

Although it didn't understand what the other party wanted to do, relying on the keen intuition of the giant dragon, an indescribable intuition of death suddenly rose from the depths of its dragon soul.

If you rush straight down like this, you will definitely die!

This feeling came so abruptly that it even made it somewhat doubtful.

Just when it was still hesitating whether to pull up its body first, or continue to dive to give the opponent a short-distance spray of dragon's breath, Chucks' sharp vision suddenly caught hundreds of magical gathering points that suddenly lit up. The speed at which the opponent's magic power gathered and the high level of energy made it staggering.

Fenglong was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were splitting, and his soul flew away, so he began to flap the dragon's wings desperately to change his flying posture.

damn...

The wind dragon Chucks only had time to growl halfway before he was submerged in the blinding sea of light by hundreds of energy beams soaring into the sky.
