Chapter 116 Simple Tactics
Hiloa from the bathtub exudes a damp, lazy rose fragrance. The smell is not strong, but appears and disappears from time to time, as if it is teased from time to time, giving people the desire to find out. She wrapped in a brand new white sheet, her pink and white hair was scattered, and only a few were still hanging on her slender neck. She fixed her hair with a hairpin that was enough to be a dagger, and then went to the second floor to find Dagon.
"It's your turn. Wash it and then change to the cloak of the college students." Shiloai stood in a mess, as if he turned a blind eye. She said, "Go quickly, all the college students must be clean and not exude the smell of mercenaries."
Dagon lowered his head and sniffed his body. He did not take a shower for a while. But...
"Don't you care about him?"
"When he wakes up from his dream, he will leave happily. He will ask someone to deal with the mess here. After that, he will get sick, which is a punishment for him, and you don't have to worry about it. Why, are you starting to sympathize with him again?"
"I was thinking that if I could catch the Count's army, I might be able to deal with Chimera better."
Shiloai shook his head. "As soon as the army appears, Chimera will run away, and will run away without looking back, and will not fight with it at all. The army is for me to use as a last resort, and come out to scare Chimera away and save the life of the students. Okay, do you listen to the teacher? Go and take a shower!"
Dagon shook his head and headed to the third floor. He first checked the injured fellow Jiangu tribe. The guy was still soaked in warm water, and had a basin of poisonous blood. His face was pale, but at least it was not green. According to Shiloai, he was walking on a tightrope on the narrow dividing line between being poisoned and being too bloodless. He could not survive on either side. The healing potion that held his life had been fed. Unless a high-level priest who was proficient in healing came from the sky, there was nothing else to do.
Take off your clothes, open the window, and move a small stool to sit next to the bathtub. The charcoal basin is constantly heated, and the water is a little bit burning in the skin, which is just right. Pick up the scoop next to it and water it from the bucket, and then scrub it hard. This is the only comfortable way for dwarves to take a bath. They are afraid of falling into the water, so they will be nervous when soaking in the bathtub, and standing in the shower is almost the same. If there is a stone under your butt instead of a wooden stool, Dagon will feel more comfortable.
With the beard rings, the Jiangu people no longer need to untie the braids of their hair and beards. They just need to rub them directly with soap and then rinse them with water to keep them clean. Just as his head was full of foam, Shiloai walked in, leaned against the bathroom door, tilted his head, and looked at Dagon with interest.
Dagon squirted directly into the ground and gave her a blank look.
"Why, you looked at me all the time and forced to resist the spell of forgetting them. Now I'm just looking at you. You're not shy, are you?"
"Somewhat." Dagon put the water scoop between his legs and twisted his body and said, "You've seen it, can you please go out?"
"I have seen many roots. Yours are not outstanding. I can only say they are like everyone else. Don't worry, even if I stare at it, I will not cast spells on it or turn my eyes into a knife. What is that on your chest? Why do you still wear scales to protect your heart when taking a bath?"
"The monsters have had an impact on my bloodline, and these scales are slowly growing. Perhaps this bloodline has resisted your spell."
"Stop kidding. My spells are not something that a little monster bloodline can resist. And I don't think your scales look like monster bloodlines. They are beautiful, especially when they are poured and washed with water, they look shiny. Don't you think they are beautiful?"
Dagon shook his head. This was the first time he heard someone evaluate his scales as "beautiful".
"By the way, what's your name? Dagon O'Neal?"
"Dagon Olison Neil." Seeing that she could not invite her out, Dagon simply speeded up the shower and tried to end the embarrassing scene as soon as possible.
"A weird name. I know Neil is the last name of the ancient dwarf family, but Aurisen is often used as a last name for children whose parents are unknown. Why can these two names be combined?"
"I was adopted by the Neil family." Dagon pointed to his chest: "Scale can also be considered part of the reason for adoption."
"Ahh, I understand. The Neil family asked you to come to the elite academy just to fill in the quota. They don't want the best kids in the family to turn into waste. Does the dwarf have this saying: the academy turns people into waste?"
Dagon thought for a while, poured a can of water on his shoulder, and nodded.
"The academy never raises waste, you can rest assured that. Every course learns useful things, because it is not the course, but the people who study the course." Shiloai looked at Dagon and watered it hard, so he smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about the academy, talk about Chimera. Do you know this kind of monster?"
"I don't know much. This is the first time I have seen a real Chimera. Regarding its knowledge, I know the reason for its formation. Underground activities allow the power of mutation, distortion and corruption to overflow. If this power comes to an area where multiple creatures are mixed, such as a large slaughterhouse, or where beasts are piled up after eating, or just by chance, it infects multiple creatures at the same time, it is possible to mix multiple creatures and become a multi-headed monster, that is, Chimera."
"It's right, not right." Shiloai said: "The generation of Chimera is not entirely a corrupt force, it also requires specific spells and spells. In the infinite maze, there is a dangerous devouring monster called the stitching demon, which is generally considered to be low-intellectual and strong-body monsters, but they also have some high-intellectual casters. The corrupt power that can create Chimera is created by them with spells."
“Can corrupt forces still be transformed?”
"Yes, this is the research result of my teacher. I am also studying it as one of the college's topics." Shiloai said: "According to the statistical results of the past six hundred years, the proportion of strong species among corrupt monsters has increased significantly, and those disorderly, low and no threats are becoming less and less corrupt. We have enough reason to suspect that this phenomenon was deliberately caused by monsters behind it."
Shiloai walked to Dagon and sat on the bathtub. His legs naturally slid out of the sheets and stood in the dwarf's sight. She didn't realize it, or liked to see Dagon hitting his body hard and smashing water on his face, and continued: "This time the appearance of four-headed Chimera may mark the upgrade of the magic of the underground monster again, which is a rare opportunity to study. It would be great if Chimera could be captured alive."
"Catch it alive? I suggest you give up that idea. I saw another Jiangu tribe slashing Chimera with an axe, and he could only cut some scales and could not cause fatal wounds. Heavy crossbows may be the few weapons that can penetrate its skin. Being able to kill it is the best result. Trying to capture it alive will only die in vain."
"Oh, I thought I could meet a dwarf who was passionate and stupid enough, but I didn't expect you to be so rational and cautious." Shiloai immediately stood up, his legs hiding behind the sheets. "Dagon, Chimera usually has three heads, and they will spray energy from different elemental attributes, do you know?"
"I only know that Chimera will vomit, but this is the first time I heard of this different elements."
"Generally, when dealing with Chimera, you are aiming at its mana weaknesses and attacking it - I mean when using a method other than a heavy crossbow - if it lacks any attribute, it lacks a way to restrain its attributes. If it lacks water, it cannot overcome fire, so it uses fire to burn it. This is basically the case. Now Chimera has four heads, and it only has one mana weakness. If one day it has five heads, Chimera will not have magic attribute weaknesses, and its power may expand very strongly."
Dagon put down the water scoop, thought carefully, and nodded. Hiloai's statement was supported by theory. The restraint and growth of the five elements are reflected in every creature in the world that uses mana. Chimera is a monster, but it will not deviate from this theory. If the five heads are five basic elemental attributes, it is equivalent to a person with full attribute talent, and will naturally have a great bonus to the absorption and use of mana.
"Wait, you are talking about the legendary five-headed five-colored dragon, right?"
Shiloai's lips curled slightly and shrugged. "I did absorb some ideas from the legend of the five-headed five-colored dragon, but I know that the five-headed five-colored dragon is a legend, and the monsters underground must also know. Do you think of a monster one day: We can completely try to create the most powerful elemental creature in the legend. Chimera already has three heads, only two, hope is right in front of us!"
Dagon nodded and stood up. He said, "This is possible", then flipped over the bathtub and jumped directly in. This is the fastest way to flush.
"The water is a little hot. Do you want to turn yourself red?" Shiloai saw Dagon stand up from the bathtub, so he pointed to the sheets that wrapped around him and asked, "Do you want to use it to wipe your body?"
"No, thank you." Dagon reached out and wiped his face. The water was indeed a little hot, but this heat made Dagon feel very comfortable, and even offset the panic of soaking in the water. Perhaps - Dagon thought to himself - only the cold water would make him afraid.
"How are you going to deal with Chimera?"
"I already know where its temporary nest is, and probably its eating habits. My plan is to use spells and some bait to attract Chimera to leave the nest and eat, and then we approach the nest from the other direction. I use spells to set up traps, cover up everyone's trails, and then attack when it lands, rests, and is unprepared."
"How do you understand its routine and nest location?"
"Use some cattle and sheep with runes, and eagles that can be invisible and reconnaissance - my mana pet. After you came in, you never noticed that there is a third living creature besides you and me, right?"
Dagon shook his head, he did not notice.
