Broad World

Everyone rested in place for one night, and continued to move north the next morning. After walking for a few hours, the elf hunter Coran issued a warning to everyone: "Everyone, be careful, from here is the range of pterosaurs. According to intelligence, there should be a pterosaur breeding cave nearby. We only need to destroy it to get a large bounty."

As soon as Apodel heard the bounty, his eyes immediately began to shine. He grabbed Ke Lang's shoulder and asked, "How much is a large sum? Last time we received five thousand gold coins in one go at the Losander Temple."

The elf hunter raised his eyebrows, then whistled. "It's really a good deal. But mine is not bad. They offer 800 gold coins for each pterosaur head. In addition, if the pterosaurs here are cleaned up thoroughly, they can get another 2,000 gold coins."

Aimon's eyes widened and he exclaimed, "Wow! Apodell looks like we're going to make a fortune. Quickly count how many gold coins you have, and make a big purchase when you get to Baldur's Gate."

"You have to ask Henry about this. I gave him all the money for safekeeping. Although listening to the sound of gold coins shaking is very pleasant, it will be tiring to carry so many on your back." After speaking, Apodel spread his hands.

Henry opened the dimensional bag and took a look. After deducting various expenses from the adventure to the present, there are still more than 60,000 gold coins. Most of the money here is obtained in the bandit camp, half of which needs to be donated to the good-oriented temple. After counting, he stroked Imon's hair and replied with a smile: "We have a total of more than 60,000 gold coins. However, about 25,000 of them need to be donated to the temple, and the remaining 38,000 can be used at will."

"Great!" cried Imoen, jumping to his feet. "On average, each of us can get five thousand gold coins. My God! I never thought I would be so rich one day."

Dai Nahei was amused by the innocent and lovely look of the girl. She smiled and asked, "Then what are you going to do with the money? You have to know that this amount of money is enough for one person to use for a lifetime."

Aimon held up a spell book and shouted: "Then do you need to ask? Of course I want to learn magic! I have understood a lot of Tanisin's spells, and in two weeks you will be able to call me the mage Aimon!"

Apodel smiled and shook his head. He patted Minsk on the shoulder and asked, "What are you going to do with the money? Change to a set of armor made of fine steel. Or buy a magic longbow?"

Ranger touched the hamster lying on his shoulder. He laughed and replied: "Haha! Then there is no need to ask? Of course it is to build a big house with food. In this way, Minsk and Boob can live happily in it."

Apodell covered his face in pain when he heard it. He knew he had just done something stupid. Minsk's way of thinking is obviously different from that of normal people. He kept asking that fat hamster for his opinion, even when fighting. It's hard to imagine how this guy survived so many battles.

Henry looked at the son of Baal with mocking eyes, and then pretended to be serious and said to him: "Yeah, who wouldn't want a house made of food? Especially Aberdell, I think he is now considering making this suggestion a reality. But please remember, don't put too much sweets on the roof and walls. Otherwise, it will attract a lot of ants. They only need a few days to eat up the whole house."

"Damn it! You are a manipulator." Apodell cursed and ran to the front of the line with a blushing face. He couldn't stand Minsk's expectant eyes. Build a house made of food? There must be a limit to joking!

Walking along the forest path, a group of people quickly discovered the pterosaur hovering in the sky in the distance. Since there are no natural enemies at all, their numbers have increased very rapidly in recent years. Henry remembered very clearly that he had killed all the pterosaurs back then. Unexpectedly, only with the remaining dragon eggs, an ethnic group could be multiplied in just ten years.

Colon observed for a while, pointed to the largest one and said, "That guy is the leader of this group of pterosaurs, and he should be leading the group to hunt. We need a person as bait to lure them down from the sky."

"You must be joking! These guys can fly much faster than they can run. Even riding a horse, they will be overtaken within a few minutes, and the poisonous sting on their tails can kill a person." Aimon immediately shook his head and vetoed this proposal. She had seen an introduction about pterosaurs in Candlekeep back then. Not even the most nimble rogue can outrun these flying monsters.

Crown smiled and took out a bottle of white potion from his backpack. "Don't worry, I'm prepared to stop coming. Speed ​​potion. Just drink this and you can run faster than the pterosaurs in a short time. You lay in ambush here, and I will use it to attract their attention. Remember, kill the biggest one first, as long as it dies, the other pterosaurs will lose command." After finishing speaking, he ran faster and took off his leather armor and all weapons.

The elf hunter, wearing tights, ran to the open field ahead and started yelling. Soon, the pterosaurs in the distance discovered this delicious-looking prey. With the roar of the leader, seven robust adult pterosaurs began to dive down from high altitude. Ke Lang drank the speed potion without hesitation, and after the white magical aura flashed, he started to run back desperately.

Henry has already laid several "flame traps" and "skeleton traps" on the only way, waiting for these beasts to rush over and die. The pterosaur's dive speed was very fast, and it caught up with the elf hunter's butt in the blink of an eye. They waved the stingers on their tails and poked forward from time to time.

Crown dodged the stinger left and right as he ran desperately forward. He felt that his heart might explode at any moment, and his legs were about to cramp. Just as he was rushing into the woods, he suddenly heard someone shout: "Climb down!" He immediately threw himself on the ground as instructed.

I saw a red light flashing in front, and a large number of flames shot up into the sky, accompanied by a violent energy explosion. A few pterosaurs that didn't stop due to inertia exploded into pieces of black charred meat in an instant. Henry took the opportunity to cast the "spider technique" on the pterosaur staying at low altitude. The sticky spiders wrapped their wings, and they all fell from the sky and fell apart.

Apodel and Minsk, who had been ambushing behind the tree for a long time, rushed forward to start a hand-to-hand fight, while Aimeng and Danahei hid far behind and used bows and magic to attack. Henry continued to chant the spell, and soon a "serial lightning" was released. White lightning jumped among the few remaining pterosaurs, making them twitch with electricity. The two warriors took this opportunity to behead the pterosaurs.

The fight took less than five minutes from start to finish. Under Henry's command, Colon and Minsk began to skin, while Apodell and Imon searched for the blown pterosaur head. It took them over two hours to finish all the work. The skin of the pterosaur was simply cleaned, and Henry stuffed it into the dimensional bag together with the dragon's head.

After putting on the armor again, Colon asked, "Should we go ahead and sweep the pterosaur's lair? Maybe there will be some unexpected discoveries inside."

Henry nodded. "No problem. I just want to try to domesticate some pterosaurs. It would be best if there are dragon eggs." He found that although these pterosaurs were a little less intelligent, they had good fighting and reproductive abilities. The most important thing is that they are basically not very picky eaters, as long as they are meat, they can be fed. If a batch can be trained, it will be very good whether it is patrolling over the city or escorting an airship.

"Taming pterosaurs?! Oh my God! Do you know how much meat these guys eat a day? At least one-tenth of their body weight! Although the fighting power is really good, it costs a lot of money just to buy meat." As he spoke, Coran shook his head. He felt that Henry was a little too whimsical.

Henry smiled and didn't explain. The area around Blue Winter City belongs to the temperate seas, and it only needs to send a few fishing boats every day to feed these guys. Everyone rested for more than ten minutes, and then continued to move forward. It didn't take long before they discovered a stinking hole.

Ke Lang squatted down to check the footprints on the ground and said to others: "It seems that this is the right place. But generally speaking, pterosaurs' lairs are built on cliffs. It's really rare to find a cave to build their nests like this."

Looking at the familiar entrance of the cave, Henry suddenly remembered, isn't this the place where the red-robed mage Loser conducted his experiments back then. It must be that after the pterosaurs hatched, they used this place as their lair. He carefully blesses himself with protective magic, God knows if a few synthetic monsters will pop out of it.

Apodell noticed Henry's cautious expression and asked cautiously: "Man. Is there something wrong here? This is the first time I've seen you bless so many protective spells. There shouldn't be any scary monsters inside, right?"

Henry smiled wryly and shook his head. "I don't know, I only know that this place used to be a place where an evil mage conducted biological experiments. After so many years, it's really hard to say what's inside."

"Damn it, I knew the extra two thousand gold coins would be hard to get." Coran cursed in a low voice. Then he lit a torch and was the first to go in. Henry blessed himself with "Light Vision" and led others to follow.

Having entered the cave, everyone was startled by the sight in front of them. There were hundreds of eggs laid by pterosaurs everywhere in the corner of the wall. A dozen or so female dragons who were incubating eggs quickly let out a burst of screams when they saw the intruder. A few seconds later, several humanoid creatures with fleshy wings on their backs and scales all over their bodies ran out from the depths of the cave. (To be continued..)
