Chapter 228: Dragon hunt (2)
With the two of us working together, we tracked the impure dragon to its cave.
Just the heat coming from this cave was impressive enough, but that also gave us information about what kind of dragon it was.
The locals had reported that there was a red flash whenever they saw the dragon and this heat that came from it...
"It should be an impure red dragon."
Aragon gave a nod to show that he agreed with this.
After discovering this place, the two of us didn’t go in right away.
It was possible for the two of us to take care of this impure red dragon all on our own, but it would take too long for us to do so. We were stronger than it, but we weren’t so strong that we would be able to finish off this impure red dragon quickly.
That was why both of us suddenly took out these small altars and some magic stones.
"Who would have thought that we would be the first ones to use these things?"
"Who do you think we should summon first?"
After a moment of thought, the two of us came to the same conclusion.
"Conan."
Both of us immediately thought of him since he was the one that would benefit the most from dealing with this impure red dragon.
After all, he was someone that was a barbarian and used his body to fight most of the time.
Dragon blood was filled with the life force of the dragons and contained a very concentrated amount of vital energy. That meant that dragon blood was a very good tonic for strengthening the bodies of those that cultivated a physical path.
While this dragon’s blood would be weaker since it had an impure bloodline, it was still a very good tonic for Conan to use.
Once he bathed in the blood of this impure blood red dragon, he would be able to become even more like iron.
The second one that we both agreed on was...
"Tempest."
While the other parts of the impure blood dragon would also be useful to the other avatars, the one that would make sure that all of us would benefit the most was Tempest.
If he were to swallow the meat of the impure blood red dragon, there was no doubt that we would receive some special skills as a result.
That was why he was among the first that needed to be summoned.
But in the end, it turned out that this wasn’t necessary.
"Just summon all of us one after another."
When Faust’s voice rang out in our minds, the two of us didn’t know what to say.
But he soon explained that these altars were set up to be used multiple times, so it wasn’t as if we would only be able to summon one person at a time like we thought. We could use the same altar to summon multiple people at once, it just required more mana stones.
With that explanation, we did what he said and summoned four different avatars.
There were more avatars, it was just that we couldn’t summon them since they were busy with other things.
The ones that we summoned were Conan, Tempest, Faust, and Stark.
The others were too busy with other things that they couldn’t come to join us.
But at the same time, the others wouldn’t benefit from coming since Conan, Tempest, and Faust alone would take up everything that belonged to the impure blood red dragon.
Conan would take the blood to refine his body.
Tempest would take the meat and core to gain the skills of the impure blood red dragon.
Finally, Faust would take the bones so he could create a bone dragon with them.
We really weren’t wasting a single bit of this impure blood red dragon.
Once all of us had been summoned, we didn’t waste any time heading into the cave.
Though the heat that came from the cave was impressive, it wasn’t as if it could actually do anything to us. All of us had the shared Heat Resistance Skill from Tempest, so it really wasn’t that hot for us.
When we arrived at the lair of the impure blood red dragon, we found that it was still sleeping.
It didn’t even seem to care that we had just walked in, it was completely out cold.
"This thing really doesn’t have a single trace of caution at all, does it?"
"Would it need that though? It’s a dragon, so it probably thinks that there isn’t anything nearby that can harm it."
"Then what should we do about this? Should we at least wake it up so it can be aware of its own death?"
"No, it really seems like it would make a fuss if it was awake."
"What are you doing? Hurry up and help me with this array already." When Faust scolded us like this, we went over to help with the array that he was making.
But seeing the array, I couldn’t help saying, "It really feels wrong to take care of this dragon like this."
Faust just ignored me as he activated the array that we had finished.
The red dragon had been moving slightly since it had been breathing, but soon it stopped moving completely.
This array that we had created was a death magic array that sucked away the life force of the red dragon. With the mana of the ones that were powering it, it was strong enough to instantly kill the impure blood red dragon in its sleep like this.
Once it was dead, the only thing that was left to do was...
"We’ll leave it up to you." Faust said as he looked at Stark.
The rest of us all looked at him as if we were waiting for him to do something.
Stark showed a bitter smile on his face, but he still moved over to the dragon corpse.
We left it to him since he was the adventurer here, there was no one better than him to take care of butchering this impure blood red dragon.
