The Hidden Knight of Mystra Chapter 257: Dragon Slaying Plan
"Brandon?"
Roger was very surprised to see the name.
He didn't expect that after the raging sea and blood vortex, he would still be related to this guy.
But it's not surprising if you think about it carefully.
During the Blood Whirlpool of the Raging Sea, the Queen and Quinan's reincarnation had cooperated, so it was only natural for Brandon to have a relationship with the Sea Serpent Church.
And according to Roger's observation.
Brandon didn't seem to realize that he was Quinan's reincarnation - this involved a god-level secret, and Roger instinctively didn't want to be involved.
But why did this guy set his eyes on Hongye?
But before Roger could reply.
There was another message from Cecilia:
“It is said that there is a green dragon running wild on the border of the Organ Kingdom.
Mr. Brandon couldn't stand it.
I want to kill the green dragon.
But he didn't have any suitable helper around him at the moment, so he asked us.
Just so happens that you wanted to slay a dragon last time, didn’t you?
I think you can form a team.”
…
It turns out it’s not red leaves.
Roger pondered for a moment.
He always felt that this matter was a bit strange, so he asked tentatively:
"Any more detailed information?"
Cecilia readily sent over all the information the Sea Serpent Church currently had.
After a quick read.
Roger fell into a long period of thought.
…
According to the intelligence.
After the Raging Sea Blood Whirlpool, Brandon returned to the inland of the Holy Alliance with his three brothers.
They parted ways in the country of the organ.
The remaining three went north separately.
He was left alone wandering around the south.
This guy made a fortune in the Angry Sea Blood Whirlpool incident.
So he spent the whole day immersed in the girls' tender arms and couldn't extricate himself.
But a month ago.
Brandon met Messiah, the princess of the Organ Kingdom, in "Hill Harbor".
Messiah was known as the 'Pearl of the Holy Covenant' and was naturally very beautiful. Her smile was enough to seduce the soul of Brandon, a greasy, middle-aged, lecherous man.
From then on, he tried every means to get close to the princess and finally succeeded.
That night.
The two sides had a very pleasant conversation.
After experiencing "being too drunk", "being distracted by love", "accidental discharge of a gun" and so on.
Brandon woke up feeling bored.
He saw the princess standing in front of the mirror with a sad look on her face, so he asked her what made her sad.
The Messiah told him the news that a green dragon was wreaking havoc on the border of the kingdom.
The princess said.
She was worried that the green dragon would persecute the people in the border villages.
But the royal family of the Organ Kingdom had been weak for a long time, and many lords had their own troops. She really had no way to organize an army to fight against the evil dragon.
When Brandon heard what she said, he immediately became excited and expressed his willingness to slay the dragon.
Then he really left the capital alone to slay the dragon.
The subsequent story information is vague.
In short, this guy hit a wall with the green dragon and could only look for teammates everywhere in shame.
It’s a pity that the three most reliable friends are not here.
He searched for a long time.
Finally found the head of the Sea Serpent Church.
…
"This intelligence is so fucking ridiculous. The key things are not described in detail, but the part about Brandon and Princess Messiah's love affair is written as if they were there..."
Roger shook his head after reading it.
But soon his attention was attracted by the location where the green dragon appeared in the intelligence -
Carchedon Hill Village.
If he remembered correctly.
That is a mountainous area near the northern part of the Mist Shadow Mountains!
"Brandon is Quinan's backup vest after all. He must have been upgraded after the Raging Sea Blood Whirlpool. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to compete with Brother Python..."
"Besides the old monster in the Green Dragon Mountains, is there any other green dragon he can't take down?"
“That doesn’t make sense.”
The sixth sense told Roger.
That green dragon might also be related to the red leaves!
After all, the dragon's activity territory is very large.
Although Hongye's real body is hidden underground in Drovas.
But if a giant dragon appeared near the Mist Shadow Mountains, it would be scared away by his breath.
There must be something seriously wrong with that green dragon!
Just think of this.
Roger quickly replied:
"Tell Brandon that I was touched by his infatuation with the princess and would be happy to work with him."
"Please give me a time and place to meet."
…
Although Roger was fully prepared.
But when it comes to things like slaying a dragon, having more powerful companions can provide more room for error.
Roger is indeed willing to work with Brandon.
With the help of Cecilia.
The two sides agreed on the time and place for the meeting.
Roger quickly returned to the Jade Phoenix Nest.
There was nothing unusual about the mountain protection formation.
The jade phoenix eggs in the ash field are also developing normally.
After repositioning the 9 poisonous mushrooms inside and outside the Jade Phoenix Nest.
Roger did not leave immediately.
He chose to enter the world of hidden heroes.
…
Today's Xiayin world is already thriving.
With the efforts of the elves.
The seeds of the fragrant nan tree quietly took root and sprouted. The plant grew very fast, and the tallest one has grown to half a person's height.
The wooded area is beginning to take shape.
And the other side.
A "primordial stone refinery" which does not occupy too much land is also under construction day and night.
On the assembly line in the workshop.
A group of temporary workers worked diligently to refine the raw ore that Roger had dug up.
Due to the capacity of temporary workers.
The production capacity of a miniature factory is not high, but its advantage is its durability.
Temporary workers can work 24 hours a day without rest.
The ore Roger dug was being consumed at a very fast rate.
I believe it won’t take long.
He can harvest several warehouses of crude-grade primordial stones!
…
After a brief inspection of the two assembly lines.
Roger walked into the "Gun Workshop" next door alone.
This is where simple processing of thermal weapons is carried out.
It is currently Roger's private studio.
After entering.
He took out the Red Moon from his Qi hole and placed it on a two-meter-wide workbench.
The next moment.
His right hand pressed on the tinder bag.
He took out 12,000 evil ghost essences in one breath!
Immediately following.
He placed the Red Moon in the palm of his hand and rubbed it repeatedly.
Under the effect of bare-hand forging.
The red moon seemed to have turned into an extremely flexible noodle.
It was constantly stretched and thinned in Roger's hands.
Then it shortened and became thicker...
After several times.
Roger stuffed a piece of evil spirit into the 'noodles' and then rubbed it harder.
Very quickly.
The spirit seeped in like a glass of water poured on flour.
…
"Barehand Forging: You added 1 evil spirit"
…
"The quality of the Red Moon has been slightly improved."
…
that's all.
Roger began his recurring ramen career.
Forging with bare hands is very physically demanding.
However, smelting additives is actually a very basic forging business, so with the support of bottles of turtle power, Roger can still hold on.
3 days later.
With Roger's unremitting efforts.
All 10,008 evil spirits were integrated into the blade of Red Moon.
A golden light flashed.
A strong sense of pleasure also surged into Roger's heart!
on the data bar.
…
"Barehand Forging: Red Moon (Superior) has been upgraded to Red Moon (Upgraded)"
…
After upgrading, Crimson Moon has 10 basic weapon points.
Assigned by Roger.
Its final properties are as follows:
…
「Sharpness 20, Sturdiness 11, Weight 5, Balance 9, Durability 10」
…
When allocating points.
Roger continues the style that Chiyue has always maintained.
20 points of sharpness is considered top-notch even among upgraded weapons.
Even the most frail monster can be chopped in half with one strike.
And that's besides the point.
After the upgrade, the Red Moon has the 4th special skill and 1 new special effect.
…
"Stunt 4: Breaking the Army"
"Po Jun: Consume 20 layers of sword intent to launch a penetrating air blade upward attack on enemies in a straight line within 1 km.
Anyone hit by the air blade will suffer a 20-second 'burning' effect.
"Burning: Your health cannot be restored."
…
This is a very strong stunt.
Suitable for individual breakthrough.
It can also be used as a dirty trick to start from a very long distance.
It is also the nemesis of some blood-sucking monsters.
And the special effects are even more amazing.
…
"Special Effect: Soul Devourer"
"Soul Devourer: Crimson Moon can absorb the souls of the dead under the sword and refine them into soul threads"
…
"Soul Thread: Every 10,000 soul threads can increase the basic 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 coordinate the attack.
…
"Note: The combat capabilities of Red Moon Ghost Kings of different grades are also different. Every three Red Moon Ghost Kings can be combined into a two-star Ghost King, and so on. There is no upper limit to the stacking."
…
See here.
Roger only regretted that he had not completed the upgrade for Chiyue earlier.
Otherwise, the strongest ghost king might already be in his formation!
He has always liked things that can be stacked without limit.
But consider the horror of exponentiation.
Roger estimated that he could only raise one 7-star Red Moon Ghost King at most - but that would require using the Red Moon to kill more than 720,000 monsters.
If there were more, Roger couldn't figure it out for the time being.
all in all.
The improvement of Chiyue is still very huge.
Sharpness 20 means that the Red Moon is a very terrifying divine weapon for any creature .
"It's perfect for slaying dragons."
In the gun workshop.
Roger stretched vigorously.
He estimated the time and rested in the Xiayin Realm for another ten hours.
And then he left the Jade Phoenix Nest.
After the earth escape is activated.
He swam towards the surface in the northwest without stopping.
After the death of the God of Mist.
The Misty Mountains became no different from ordinary mountains.
Roger spent a lot of effort to successfully unearth it.
Immediately summon the Somersault Cloud and head north.
Not long.
He successfully arrived at the place agreed with Brandon——
It was a small village called "Piccolo" southwest of Mount Carmel.
The village is sparsely populated.
Roger walked around outside twice, and suddenly a child pointed at him and shouted:
"Mr. Brandon?"
"Didn't you just flirt with Sister Malt in the tavern?"
"Why did you suddenly appear here?"
Roger was stunned for a moment.
He touched his face calmly.
Then I turned on Bluff.
…
…
20 minutes later.
In the run-down tavern on the south side of Piccolo Village.
Roger sat down leisurely 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! Bud."
Brandon looked at Roger as if he had just woken up from a dream.
Immediately, he said with great joy:
"You're finally here!"
"I didn't know you were the Queen's man when we last met."
Roger did not correct the ambiguity in his words.
Just said lightly:
"I didn't know you were such a sentimental person."
Speaking of.
He glanced at the busty waitress quite deliberately.
The waiter rolled his eyes at them in an unusually savage way.
"Hahaha...it's nothing, Messiah can understand."
Brandon reluctantly withdrew his gaze.
Immediately following.
His expression became extremely serious, and his voice became low and rapid:
"Do you want to do it?"
"It depends on the situation."
"What's going on?"
"Tell me your plan, and I'll give you an answer."
Roger said leisurely:
"I have to see if it's as plausible as Cecilia cracks it up to be."
"Slaying a dragon is no small feat."
Brandon nodded in agreement:
"Indeed."
"I have been looking for help in the south for half a month, and you are the only one who is willing to come to my house."
Seeing that he was somewhat moved, Roger added:
"Don't worry."
"I won't reveal your plans."
Brandon laughed:
"There's actually nothing to disclose."
"It's nothing more than an adult green dragon!"
"But this guy is indeed a bit weird."
"Let's find a deserted place first..."
Roger nodded happily.
…
10 minutes later.
In the grove behind Piccolo Village.
Roger's expression was a little complicated.
“…Wait for them to start fighting first, and in the chaos, I’ll find an opportunity and kill him with one sword.
Then we carried his head back to Hill Harbor.
Then I will be able to marry Her Royal Highness the Princess openly - no, I have to change my surname. She doesn't know yet that in terms of seniority and blood relationship, I am actually her cousin.
Well, it's a perfect plan, isn't it?"
Brandon said this with great excitement.
Looking at him, it seems as if he has killed the dragon, married the princess, and reached the peak of his life.
Roger rubbed his temple subconsciously.
Quietly walked aside:
"Let me think about it."
He tried hard to sort out the thoughts in his mind.
Brandon's plan to slay the dragon sounded like child's play to him.
The various forces he mentioned in the dragon-slaying plan also made Roger confused -
After a simple combing.
Roger quickly realized that there was a lot of water behind the "Brandon slaying the dragon" incident.
What's even more ridiculous is.
The forces behind this incident are actually related to Roger!
In Brandon's mouth.
Roger learned an important piece of information——
The female devil from the "Land of Chaos" is about to lead 4,000 elite soldiers to fight a decisive battle with Count Khachedon at the "Greywater River".
To defeat the evil army of the she-devil.
Count Carcedon secretly recruited the green dragon that was wreaking havoc on the border and promised him a great treasure.
therefore.
In that war, the green dragon was very likely to appear as reinforcement.
Ironically.
"Carcheton Village" is actually the territory of the Organ Kingdom.
The main thread behind this matter is:
The princess of the Organ Kingdom commissioned Brandon to kill the "evil dragon" under the command of her lord.
This probably involves a power dispute between the royal family and the nobility.
That's all.
What Roger cares about is——
Why did Diana start a war with the Organ Kingdom? !
And why, according to Brandon, did people claim that the king of the Kingdom of Chaos was a dissolute, cruel and ruthless executioner?
What is going on?
"I just spent a few months digging underground..."
“It’s all surprises once it comes out.”
In the woods.
Roger finally agreed to Brandon's outrageous dragon-slaying plan.
After determining the location of the decisive battle between the two armies.
Roger used the excuse of scouting the terrain.
He was the first to leave Piccolo Village.
It's a cloudy day today.
Roger flew happily using the somersault cloud.
Not long.
He arrived at the Greywater Plain.
…
"Hint: You have discovered the military camp of the 'Kingdom of Chaos'"
…
"You discovered the military camp of the 'Count of Carchedon'"
…
He found a deserted place and hid himself.
Roger didn't go straight to Diana.
Instead, he ran to the camp on the other side of the river.
The quality of Count Carcedon's army was low and their camps were poorly organized.
Roger even noticed prostitutes and she-goats hanging around.
With his stealth skills.
Naturally, within half a day, the core area was thoroughly explored.
The soldiers in the camp were mainly several thousand human infantry.
There were also two squadrons of Rangers.
This is considered a good level in the relatively weak Organ Country.
But what caught Roger's attention most were the dozen or so tents pitched in the northwest corner of the camp.
It's a deserted place.
The soldiers seemed afraid to go over.
After a moment.
He crept over and crawled into one of the tents.
A strong smell of demonic energy hit me in the face.
Roger took a closer look.
But I saw it in the welded fence.
The coyote-like monsters raised their heads upon hearing the news.
They have vicious eyes and long jaws filled with huge teeth.
The spine is arched and prominent.
It is covered with sharp bone spurs.
"roar……"
A low roar was heard.
…
"Hint: You have encountered the 'Abyss Violent Demon'"
…
