I totally agree with what the patriarch said. The fire phoenix is a mythical beast that is comparable to the dragon. Since the beginning of history, no one has been able to defeat the dragon and become a dragon knight. As for the phoenix, let alone it!
Strictly speaking, the phoenix is a more powerful existence than the dragon. The black dragon can die, but the phoenix cannot. The phoenix has another nickname - the phoenix, which means that it will never die and will die as long as it bathes in fire. It can be reborn, and... after each rebirth, its strength will increase a lot. It can be said that it is a model of becoming more courageous with each battle.
Seeing my excited look, the clan leader broke the news again: "Tomorrow morning, you and I will go to the place where the Phoenix is. Only if you pass its recognition will you truly become the clan leader of the dwarves!"
At this point, the patriarch's expression suddenly changed, and he sighed: "Hey... talk about it, I have even forgotten what I wanted to tell you!"
Shaking his head, the patriarch continued: "It must be a disaster. The Fire Phoenix is reborn once every 100,000 years. Now... there are only less than 100 years left before it is reborn. During this time, its strength has begun to grow rapidly. Sliding down, because he wants to keep all his energy in the moment of ashes. It can be said that the whole life of the fire phoenix is fighting for the moment of rebirth, just like the epiphyllum grows for the short-lived beauty."
After a pause, the patriarch said solemnly: "After the last tragedy, I went to see Fire Phoenix in person. Although his current strength is still at the top level of human beings,... he can only sustain one battle. , if there are too many enemies, and once the energy consumption is too large, then... he will not be able to face the catastrophe that occurs once in a hundred thousand years, and maybe... the immortal phoenix will not be able to be reborn because of exhaustion of energy!"
I looked at the patriarch grandpa with a serious face. Regarding the fire phoenix, I heard a lot from the dwarves. God-level beasts like the phoenix have a catastrophe every 100,000 years. If the fire phoenix cannot If he accumulates enough energy and is reborn when the natural disaster is launched, he may fall into a deep sleep forever, just like the vegetative people on the earth.
But... at this juncture, hundreds of thousands of people have entered here for the wealth of the dwarves. Everything has to be said to be a foregone conclusion.
I raised my head slightly and asked Grandpa Patriarch, "Grandpa Patriarch, where is Fire Phoenix now?"
The patriarch looked at me closely and said word by word: "In the eyes of the volcano!"
After hearing what the patriarch said, I wasn't too surprised. In fact, I had already secretly guessed where it was. The key now is, since I can guess it, what about others? Especially those who are thoughtful, wouldn't they be able to guess
Phoenix blood is an SSS-level mission of the Adventure Guild. As we all know, the blood of the phoenix has the effect of bringing the dead back to life. No matter how serious the injury is, as long as there is still breath left, a sip of phoenix blood will immediately make a complete recovery!
The mouth of the phoenix is the sharpest tool in the world. It is said... There is nothing in the world that the mouth of the phoenix can't bite continuously. The mouth of the phoenix is the best cutting tool. Even the peerless magic weapon can't withstand its cutting.
Seeing the heavy look on my face, the clan leader sighed: "Now you know what I'm worried about. If those adventurers discover the existence of the phoenix and use their crooked ideas, then..."
I lowered my head without saying a word, and my face became increasingly livid. This possibility was too great. The god worshiped by the dwarves is the Fire Phoenix. This is already common sense. No one knows it, and it is as high as 1,000,000 The mission of the Amethyst Coin makes everyone salivate. Once they know that the Fire Phoenix is there, then...
I stood up suddenly and said with a serious expression: "Grandfather, we will go to Phoenix tomorrow. We must not let this happen!"
The patriarch of the clan sighed, shook his head helplessly and said: "Okay... we can only do our best and obey fate. I hope we can survive this disaster."
Nodding slightly, I stood up and said goodbye to the patriarch. Since I have such important things to do tomorrow, why not meditate tonight.
Early the next morning, I gradually woke up from my trance. I stretched my limbs slightly and felt the heat flowing through my body. I was very confident about today's mission. I had survived such a dangerous battlefield. How could I lose to him? Where are these adventurers!
After breakfast, the clan leader and I said goodbye to everyone and headed towards the volcano. As for the girl in white, that was not a problem at all. With the protection of the silver wolf, there would be no problem, and... even if I knew there would be a problem, I I don't have the energy to care anymore. To me, Fire Phoenix is much more important than her.
As for food, there is no need to worry about it. I have left her enough food for a month, and I have also left her fire. If she can still starve to death, then she can just die.
In order to avoid other adventurers, my grandfather, the patriarch, and I shuttled through the dense forests and tried our best to avoid open areas. But even so, we still encountered six waves of adventurers in one morning.
Originally... According to the plan of the patriarch, we just avoided it, but I am not so easy to talk to. Since they want to harm the Phoenix, they can only blame them for their bad luck. In order to reduce the difficulty of the upcoming battle, I will not be polite. Kill them one by one.
Looking at the surprised look in the patriarch's eyes, I told him that kindness is used to treat friends and brothers. If they are potential enemies, then there is no need to be polite at all, just kill them.
After all, the patriarch of the clan came here in a storm. After a slight hesitation, he returned to normal. After the tragedy of the dwarves, he was no longer as peaceful as before. He understood a truth, if others are violent to you, then you will also No need to be polite at all.
At noon, we finally arrived at the foot of the volcano, but... what we were worried about still happened. At the highest peak of several thousand meters, an earth-shattering battle was going on, and... halfway up the mountainside, there were crowds of people rushing madly up the mountain. , so densely packed that I don’t know how many there are at the moment.
With my eyesight, I can clearly see everything happening on the top of the mountain. A big bird with a wingspan of more than ten meters and made entirely of flames is fighting hundreds of people. Although he has not been hurt so far, But my grandfather, the patriarch, and I knew that something was wrong!
call!
The clan leader gritted his teeth and pulled out the battle ax from behind, and said angrily: "It's too much, it's really too much. It's absolutely unforgivable to besiege the patron saint of our dwarves like this!"
Looking at the angry expression of the patriarch, I couldn't help but be slightly startled. I thought that when the dwarves were massacred, he was not so angry. It seems... the Fire Phoenix itself is more important than the dwarves. In my mind, Phoenix is the spiritual support above all else.
I didn't say anything, silently summoned Evil God Slash, rushed towards the mountain without saying a word, and told the patriarch, Grandpa, never to go out.
The patriarch was stunned for a moment, and then he understood. With his image, once he goes out, he will be immediately besieged by thousands of people. His allure is no less than that of the Fire Phoenix. Once he is caught , you can slowly question the location of the dwarf's treasure and how to open the iron book.
Seeing Grandpa Patriarch lowering his head in frustration, I comforted him: "Grandpa Patriarch, your most important task now is to protect the dwarves and allow them to reproduce healthily. As for Fire Phoenix, although you can't go into battle in person, I I am your apprentice. If the master has something to do, the disciple should obey him!"
Hearing what I said, Grandpa Patriarch showed a rare smile, looked at me with admiration, and said happily: "Okay... well said, Grandpa Patriarch finally did not accept you as his apprentice in vain!"
After a pause, the clan leader continued: "Okay... Since it's useless for me to stay, I'd better go back immediately and be prepared to resist the invasion."
Shaking his head, the patriarch looked at the crowds in the mountains and fields and sighed: "Hey... I didn't expect so many people to come. I'd better be careful. If they discover the dwarf cave, who knows what will happen." What happened!"
I nodded with deep understanding: "Well... Grandpa Clan Leader, you must restrain everyone when you go back. No matter what happens outside, you must not go out. Once someone shows up, the enemy will find out the identity of the dwarves." If it is located, then the dwarves will be destroyed!"
Thinking of the terrible consequences, the patriarch couldn't help but shudder. Indeed... so many people, once they are seen, then...
Quickly raising his head, the clan leader said eagerly: "Okay... I have to go back quickly, but... Fire Phoenix's side..."
I clenched my fist firmly and said confidently: "Don't worry, Grandpa Patriarch, even if I risk my life, I will defend the safety of Fire Phoenix to the death, but... you must not make any mistakes, send more people." People are on guard duty, if that doesn't work, have everyone come around the entrance of the cave and be ready to escape at any time, but don't hide in the cave and be blocked by someone!"
