Chapter 364

"Don't blow it." Ren persuaded: "There are too many people nearby."

The horn sound of Dragon's Call has a wide range, at least forty or fifty miles.

Now there are countless mercenaries and adventurers in the deep mud swamp, searching for the black dragon's lair. In the past few days alone, Ren has met them seven or eight times. The sound of the horn will definitely alarm the mercenaries and adventurers within the range, and the Rose Knights and Wolf Cavalry will follow.

If the good dragon is not willing to sign the Dragon Oath, it will inevitably go through a battle, and I am afraid it will not end well.

Emily calm down, this is really not a good choice.

"Let's find the giant dragon first, hoping to outsmart it." Ren glanced at Galaderos. Good dragons can usually communicate and don't necessarily have to fight.

He had an idea right away.

The summoning of the dragon can only sense the good dragons within the range. Using this feature, after many tests, the location of the good dragons can be roughly determined.

This is a very simple positioning method, and Emily understands it as soon as she hears it.

Two people and two dragons rode phantom horses and ran, choosing a direction at random. Emily would sense it every few minutes. If she found that the dragon's call did not respond, she would immediately turn around, change the direction a little, and conduct repeated tests. .

In less than two hours, the position of Shanlong was very clear.

"Go over there."

Ren pointed in a direction and took the lead in riding over.

The Phantom Warhorse was very fast, and galloped through the swamp, passing through puddles and grasslands one after another, and the fog around it became thicker.

After a while, Ren heard a slight sound.

"Um?"

He slowed down and looked at the source of the sound. The eyes of the soul pierced through the layers of fog, and there was a tall humanoid figure with horns on his head hundreds of meters away. Searching for something.

Even the eyes of the soul couldn't see clearly because of the gray fog blocking it.

Ren pointed in the direction of the figure.

The phantom war horse approached, and the figure also heard the sound of the horse's hooves. He stood up and turned around, fully revealing his appearance.

"Tauren?" Ren was slightly surprised.

This is a male tauren, tall and strong, nearly 2.3 meters tall, with an extremely huge body like a wall, a large mane growing behind his huge head, a pair of hard hooves on his feet, and a pair of hard hooves behind him. The nimble ox tail flicks back and forth from time to time to drive away flying insects that approach it.

The most striking thing is that he has a pair of huge horns.

The black horns are like sharp swords, growing from both sides of the head. The horns are at least half a meter long with a little curvature, and are slightly tilted upwards, which is very eye-catching.

The tauren's copper-bell-like eyes are peaceful. He is wearing a simple linen robe and holding a curved wooden staff. The staff is wrapped with green vines, with a few leaves growing on it, full of vitality.

He had a big cloth bag slung across his body, as if he was collecting medicine.

"Tauren druid?" Ren was not sure, his eyes were full of surprise. He found that he couldn't see through the tauren's bottom line, as if a layer of mosaic covered his soul, making the eyes of the soul temporarily invalid.

This is the third time he has encountered this situation.

The first time was the Shadow Assassin Ysu, who had a magic item to cover the soul; the second time was the simulacra of the Holy Soul Wizard Black Robe Duke, who could see the soul, but it was in chaos, and no useful information could be obtained.

The situation of this tauren is similar to Yisu, and he should be carrying a strange magic item.

"Mother Earth is protecting you." The tauren greeted with a gentle face, without the slightest hostility, he waved his stick lightly, and a few fresh and elegant rays of light fell down.

The light blue light has a cleansing effect, removes the dirt on the body, and refreshes Ren and others. The exhaustion of running around in the swamp for days is swept away, and the whole body feels comfortable.

And after the blessing, the poisonous insects and flying mosquitoes did not dare to approach.

"The wind of nature."

Ren recognized that this was a spell exclusive to Druids, made a prayer gesture for the Mother Earth, and replied in the tauren language: "Thank you, master, may I ask the name of the master?"

"I'm just a believer who follows the way of nature. I can't be called a master. You can call me Blackhorn." The tauren replied with a smile.

"Black Horn!" Emily said in surprise, "You are Master Black Horn? The legendary druid master who lives in seclusion in the deep mud swamp has been studying the cultivation method of black soul mushrooms for many years. I once wanted to visit you , begging to buy a batch of black soul medicine, but the whereabouts of the master have not been found."

The tauren looked at her and nodded in relief, "So you've heard of me."

Ren's eyes fell on the back of Black Horn. There were signs that the grass had just been turned over, leaving a few shallow pits, and there were still a small half of the roots in the black mud in the pits.

This is the root of the black soul mushroom. He also found a few black soul mushrooms in the past few days, and one was worth hundreds of gold shields, so he just picked it.

But if there is no rhizome left like the other party, can it grow again?

The Tauren was quite interested in Emilys, and said, "If you want to buy the Black Soul Potion, you can go to the Icethorn Clan. I usually entrust them to sell the refined potion."

"Even if you can meet me in the swamp, it's a kind of fate." He took out a green leaf with a unique symbol on it, and the leaf flew up and fell into Emily's hand, "You give this leaf For Chief Korf of the Icethorn Clan, he can get a chance to buy Black Soul Potion at a discount."

"Thank you, master." Emily put away the leaves solemnly.

Black Horn waved his hand as if he didn't care, his eyes swept over Ren, Galaderos and Syndara, paused slightly, and said, "You can go."

Ren was keenly aware of the changes in the tauren.

Even if the eyes of the soul can't see the state of the other party's soul clearly, they can still see some emotional ups and downs, and there are faint changes in color.

He gestured to Emily behind his back.

Emily understood immediately, and she didn't want to leave just like that, so she asked, "Master Blackhorn, have you been living in seclusion around here for many years?"

"Yes." The tauren nodded, "but my residence is a secret, so it's not convenient for me to receive you."

"Master misunderstood." Emily said quickly: "I just want to ask Master, have you ever seen a giant dragon in the swamp?"

"The giant dragon..."

The tauren's face was calm, without showing any surprises, and he said with a smile: "The swamp is so lively these days, how could I not know. Before you, I have met human mercenaries several times, and they all asked me about the dragon. Whereabouts, unfortunately, I have never seen any dragons."

Emily was a little disappointed, but she couldn't tell whether what the other party said was true or not.

In fact, she had already secretly blessed herself with scrying skills, but she couldn't see any clues on the tauren, and she couldn't even be sure if it was deformed.

"Thank you, Master Blackhorn, I won't bother you to collect medicine." Emilys thanked and was about to leave.

Ren frowned, and said suddenly, "Wait."

"What's wrong?" Everyone looked at Ren.

He also wasn't sure if Black Horn was a giant dragon, or whether it had anything to do with it, but the summoning of the dragon showed that there was a giant dragon nearby, so Black Horn was the biggest suspect.

The method of verifying the authenticity is very simple.

Ren stared closely at Hei, and said, "Take out the horn and show the master."

Emily also figured out the key point, and without hesitation, she took out the Dragon's Call, restored it to its original shape, and turned it into a strange-shaped horn more than half a meter long.

The Tauren looked puzzled, as if he didn't understand the situation.

He looked at the Dragon's Call and asked curiously: "What is this horn used for? Why did you show it to me?"

Emily replied softly: "Master Black Horn, this is the summoning of the dragon, you can use it to make a dragon oath with the good dragon, as long as you blow it, you can call the nearby good dragons to come."

"The call of the dragon!" The tauren was very surprised, "Are you a dragon descendant of the Drogonburg family?" As a legendary druid who has lived for hundreds of years, he must have heard the legend of Congatro.

"Yes." Emily said bluntly.

The tauren laughed in surprise, "You don't think I'm a giant dragon, do you?"

He looked at Ren while he was speaking, obviously knowing that Ren was the head of this group of people, and they became suspicious of him.

Ryan didn't answer.

He has been observing the color change of Black's soul. Ever since Emily took out the Dragon's Call, Black's mood has fluctuated violently, which is completely different from the superficial indifference. It is not just because of Emily's surprise. Dragonborn identity.

Even if this druid is not the transformation of a giant dragon, it is inseparable from the dragon.

Ren is more than 90% sure.

So he said decisively: "Blow it."

Whenever the horn of the dragon's call is heard, the dragon will appear and respond to the call. This is the rule set by Bahamut, the god of dragons. At such a short distance, even if Black Horn is a legendary mid-level adult dragon, Ren is confident that he can take it down in the shortest time.

While he was speaking, he took out the Thunder Hammer and the Arcane Torrent Staff from the ring, put on the bloody cloak behind him, and quickly blessed himself with the Wind and Thunder Wings.

With a snap, a pair of lightning-like wings stretched out, illuminating the dim swamp.

In just an instant, Ren entered the fighting state.

Galaderos and Syndara also moved, outflanking the tauren's back from both sides. They did not show the real body of the dragon, but cast spells first.

Emilys immediately brought the horn to her mouth, and mobilized her soul power to blow it hard.

The Tauren's complexion changed drastically.

His eyes instantly became gloomy and anxious. The wooden stick in his hand was inserted into the soft wet ground, and countless thorns and vines burst out of the ground, like thick poisonous snakes, entangled with four phantom war horses, and climbed rapidly, especially Emily. The location was instantly submerged by a large number of roots.

At the same time, a brilliant starlight fell from the sky and hit Emily who was about to blow the horn.
