Giant Dragon Treasure Space, the battle had ended 20 minutes ago, and the treasure in the vault had been looted completely by Da Feiās troops.
This time, the spoils of war included 5.98 million Gold Coins, 11 S-level Ancient Warrior Dragon Soul Swords, 11 sets of Ancient Warrior Armor, and 11 Ancient Warrior Shields. Additionally, there were 55 various antique gold dishes, gold staffs, and gold chamber pots. Overall, it was similar to the previous treasure space.
However, Da Fei still couldnāt leave, the critical Divine Level Fragment had yet to be found. Evidently, the expert-level Treasure Appraiser wasnāt adequate to discover such treasures in normal circumstances. With Little Fei flying in the sky, Da Fei crawling on the ground, and angels scouring the ceiling and walls in the hall, Da Fei employed every means to thoroughly search the area, acquiring a total of several hundred unidentified crystals that varied in attribute, color, and shape.
Which crystal was the Divine Level one? Which was merely a common stone? Da Fei was exceedingly frustrated.
Even more frustrating for Da Fei was that, although Elena and Catherine specifically handled the sorting of these crystals, each crystal seemed to possess energy, and each appeared to be a treasure?
There was no other option but to pack them all up and take them. Just like when he searched for seeds in the Vine Forest Space and couldnāt find them, he had to take home all sorts of unidentified soil. Then, when a new day came, he would use the Luck Skill to try to discern them.
The instance time limit was about to expire, and after ensuring nothing was left behind, Da Fei had to leave with an anxious and conflicted heart.
Once again, festivities began. Da Fei took this downtime to utilize the Dragon Soul Pearl and Blood Eagle to check out other surrounding dragon skeletons. The journey so far had quite a few dragon skeletons, but possibly due to age, they no longer retained any energy, now merely part of the environmental background.
After two treasure plunders along the road, a corner of the map was already cleared, but there were still three massive energy sources and over a hundred small red dots, indicating 3 treasure spaces and over a hundred small foes left.
Great, my crystal ammunition is just enough. This Dragon Tomb sweep alone has earned enough troop equipment to fully arm a hundred-man squad. While pondering calculations, the Blood Eagle Radar suddenly flashed a golden light!
Da Feiās brow furrowed, a golden light! Treasure? Da Fei hurriedly paused the Blood Eagle to check, seeing an underwater dragon bone, and in the chest cavity of the bone, there was faintly a narrow dim Space Gate!
Then the golden light flashed again, evidently emanating from the Space Gate. Da Fei was shocked, could it be another treasure? Suddenly, Da Fei noticed this dragon bone was much smaller than the other giant dragons, especially the skull size seemed less than a third of the others. Other dragon skeletons were like mountains, half-submerged in water like small islands, while this Little Longās skeleton was submerged in water.
Seriously! Hidden so obscurely, even the Dragon Soul Pearl failed to detect it, it must be a hidden instance. But itās underwater, my mecha canāt go in, and angels canāt dive either. Actually, except for common Fishman troops and pirates with water battle skills, standard national troops canāt dive.
Meaning the worst-case scenario is the player can only bring Vice Heroes inside, not a single troop. Otherwise, they wouldnāt send weak sailors in, right? And with the dragon being so small, it doesnāt look like an old giant dragon; could it have died young? All in all, it has depth! This instance may look small but is probably the most challenging.
For a while, Da Fei hesitated. Damn it, overthinking it! Leave the hardest ones for last!
Thus, the Blood Eagle continued toward the designated radar target. Then he saw, Da Fei astonished once again! This dragon skeleton was extremely large, much bigger than the previous two, and it was the most radiant energy source on the radar, this must be the Giant Dragon King, right? This is the hardest one!
Nothing more to say, leave it for the final wrapping-up. And at that moment, the system prompt sounded:
āāSystem Prompt: Your teamās Ghost Ship Hero Renior has leveled up; Reniorās Defense Bonus for Ghost Ships +200, Light Weapon Damage -5, Durability recovers 4 points per second.
Oh my, after another meal, the Old Captain leveled up again! Nothing more to say, keep going. First, clear the two of similar difficulty, then consider the two most difficult instances.
However, Da Fei was disappointed again, under Blood Eagle scouting, the third treasure wasnāt of equal difficulty, but rather a smaller giant dragon, meaning reduced difficulty!
Reduced difficulty means weaker boss, hence fewer spoils, but these donāt matter, the key is, with the smaller size, Flying clearly canāt teleport inside, meaning the Ancient Tree Fortress canāt go in either, this instead increases difficulty!
Seriously, in such times of frustration, without the effortless help of the Ancient Tree Fortress, should I engage in direct combat with the boss? Such an unfair matter I surely wonāt do!
At that moment, Tamilia stepped forward: "Lord City Lord, once Flying absorbs a dragon heart, it will level up, then the Holy Vine Space Gate will expand larger and farther, as long as the angle and distance are suitable, you can directly open the exit of the Holy Vine Space Gate in the dragonās chest cavity, allowing the Ancient Tree Fortress to directly enter without having to teleport Flying inside."
Da Fei was enlightened! Indeed, Flying is too tall and long to fit, but half-buried Ancient Tree can fit in, Ancient Tree can bend over! Iām unstoppable, size canāt hinder me!
Just need to absorb a heart right? Da Fei eagerly waited for the Blood Eagle to scout the fourth treasure, but again Da Fei was disappointed, the fourth treasure was another small-sized dragon bone, Flying still couldnāt get in!
Da Fei was frustrated; only one choice left, challenge the largest one that might be the Giant Dragon Kingās dragon bone! After beating two instances which only dropped some Gold Coins and troop gear, there was no anticipated Divine Artifact, surely the Giant Dragon King would have a Divine Artifact, right? This must be the ultimate boss in this scenario!
However, could the Giant Dragon King be taken down with just a few shots? Should I switch to Hell Crystal rockets? Maybe the fear domain of the Giant Dragon King is exceptionally powerful, starting off by terrifying all my troops directly, and then using various magic, Iād be dying miserably!
In this moment, Da Fei lacked confidence again! This was Da Feiās treasured Angel Army, if trapped in an unfair instance, Da Fei would cry in the restroom!
No, I have another choice; I can first challenge the hidden instance I just found! Not to mention I still have a group of Sea Demon troops capable of diving, even if I bring no troops, given my attributes, itās still a small boss, OK, decide to challenge the hidden instance first.
Thus, Da Feiās fleet reached above the hidden instance; since the Angel Army couldnāt join the battle this time, they could stay onboard to heal from Extreme Coldās blood loss, and Selvia could follow into the instance. As for deployment of troops, take the Sea Demons or not? This question made Da Fei hesitate again.
Deirdre volunteered: "Master, please take me along, even if I die I can return to the Sea Soul Staff. Please, Master, do not worry about me."
Seriously, Iām worried about the Sea Demon troop! If I lose, thatād be a huge loss! But, if even I, so powerful, canāt clear a small instance, then who could clear it in years to come?
Da Fei gritted his teeth: "Alright, then letās go all out!"
At this moment, Renior spoke: "Warrior, are you diving into the water? This is the North Poleās icy water, though not frozen due to Dragon Bloodās pollution, but actually, the water temperature is shockingly low. Even the Undead couldnāt keep Soul Fire in such icy water, let alone ordinary mortals. Without sufficient special diving equipment support, these ladies shouldnāt go down, but warrior, you shouldnāt have a problem!"
Seriously, my Holy Frost Body probably ensures Iām fine, but how should I know what diving equipment to bring? Da Fei exclaimed: "Are you kidding, it doesnāt look that deep!"
Renior added: "Warrior, havenāt you noticed, in such frigid winds, our sailing speed is so slow, because the water resistance here is much greater than normal water, it looks like ten meters deep, but itās equivalent to several tens of meters in reality. Of course, warrior, you have Extreme Diving skills, itās no problem for you!"
Seriously, this is Flame River Hellās ice version! (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, feel free to visit Qidian.com to cast your recommendation and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com for reading.)
