Volume 8: The Road to the Ancient Dragon Chapter 380 Target - Dragonbone Wilderness
Murphy sent messages to the four chosen heroes.
Luban No.7 (Master Craftsman): "Prince Aidan, your fleet is ready. Do you want to inspect the goods?"
Murphy nodded and waved his hand, and a team of Dragon Knights immediately followed him. When they walked to the dock, they saw five warships, one large and four small, neatly arranged in the sea of the port.
It was equipped with all kinds of cannons, cables, sails and decorations. It really was convenient to have more craftsmen. Five warships were knocked out in just half a day.
While Murphy was calling the captains and sailors hired from the tavern to board the ship, he took the Dragon Knights up to the tower. Standing on the towering tower and looking down, he saw a row of warships neatly arranged. Looking at the distant sea and the knights ready to go on the dock, he felt a sense of heroism. Although the fleet and the legion were not large, this was his own fleet and his own order of knights. He was no longer Prince Aidan who had gotten his fleet for free by completing missions.
Luban No. 7 (Master Craftsman): "Captain Aidan, please name the battleship."
Murphy had already prepared the name of the battleship.
Aidan (Captain of the Dragon Knights): "This Kingship-class flagship will be called the Storm Dragon King. The other four Blacksail-class ships will be called the Dragon Tooth, Dragon Claw, Dragon Might, and Dragon Blood."
Luban No. 7 nodded, thinking that the name was really simple and easy to understand.
As the naming was completed, the names of the five warships appeared on their sides.
At this time, a Dragon Knight quickly walked up.
Lazidanan (Knight Commander): "Your Highness, the three thousand troops of the Dragon Knights have all arrived. How do you plan to distribute them?"
Roland could not go with them because he had to stay at the headquarters of the Knights Templar, so Murphy specially found Razidanan to be his adjutant. Razidanan was unlucky and did not make it in time to advance to the Dragon Thunder Knight. He led his troops to fight in several battles as the Knight Commander of the Dragon Knights Temperance.
It has no special abilities and is just a large cavalryman.
Fortunately, since we were following a large group of people, there wasn't much danger.
After a few battles, his plot points were more or less messed up, but it was nothing compared to Roland who was on track. He didn't get a hero template until the end of the war. Now he is still an elite knight commander, and he is still dozens of plot points away from advancement.
After all, he was one of his earliest subordinates, so Murphy couldn't forget him. This time, he took him with him to slay the dragon, so as to at least give him a heroic template to play with.
When coming to Nanhai Town, Murphy followed the principle of quantity being greater and wider, and mobilized 3,000 Dragon Knights' extraordinary troops. It could almost be said that he went out in full force. However, considering the carrying capacity of the five warships, it was obviously impossible to bring all of them along. After all, he had to prepare space for 1,000 adventurers.
After considering for a while, Murphy made a decision.
"Five hundred dragon riders, all board the Storm Dragon King and wait for orders.
Five hundred dragonblood warriors, one hundred per ship, no dragon-armored heavy cavalry, that's all."
There were a total of one thousand troops, and the Storm Dragon King alone carried 600 of them, which was basically full.
Those adventurers can only be assigned to the other four Black Sail-class battleships.
Fortunately, this is a game, and supplies can be carried directly in the backpack. Otherwise, if we follow the standards of the real world, so many troops would not be able to fit.
The troops to be taken away had just been dispatched onto the ship, and adventurers gradually gathered at the dock over there.
Going on an adventure to Northrend is definitely a godsend for adventurers. Although the monsters in this unopened map are powerful and the map is completely dark, the risk factor is extremely high.
But the benefits are also high. First of all, the more dangerous the monsters are, the better the drops they usually give. And because it is an unopened map, all kinds of copies, dungeons, ruins, wild bosses, and rare resources that have not yet been discovered are all waiting for players to dig.
It is almost a virgin land waiting to be developed, with opportunities everywhere.
If you can log in early and get first-hand information, you will be able to seize the initiative when the map opens in the future.
And even the first wave of exploration is promising.
The biggest problem with the unopened map is that there are no resurrection points. If you die, you can only go back to the eastern continent. But even if it is a one-way flow, if you are lucky, you can kill a few wild bosses, get some equipment, and dig up some special resources to bring back.
Adventurers aren't afraid of death anyway, so don't bring too good equipment with you when you go. Just bring back anything and you'll make a killing.
For this reason, some pirate organizations will regularly help adventurers smuggle to Northrend, but this kind of smuggling generally requires money to buy tickets, and the tickets are expensive, and there is also the possibility of encountering situations where pirates rob each other.
After all, pirates are all monster templates. It is rare for a group of humanoid monsters and a group of adventurers to reach their destination safely on a ship. They often fight on the way, using all kinds of magic. If you are not careful, the ship will be destroyed and people will die.
So when players heard that they didn't need to buy tickets for the Northrend sightseeing tour and that the Storm Dragon King would lead the tour himself, there were so many people who came to sign up that many guilds sent their core teams to sign up.
The scene became a little chaotic when there were too many people. Fortunately, there were still two thousand Dragon Knights under Murphy on the shore. They lined up in formation and suppressed the enemy directly, so that these adventurers did not dare to act rashly.
Especially those dragon-clad heavy cavalry, lined up in rows on both sides of the dock, like two dragon-bone city walls, full of deterrence.
Murphy came to the crowd and raised his hand gently.
boom!
A bolt of dragon lightning suddenly silenced the entire place.
Aidan (Leader of the Dragon Knights): "Dear adventurers, please stop arguing and listen to me. I have an important purpose for going to Northrend this time - to explore the Dragonbone Wasteland. Considering the difficult journey, the Dragonbone Wasteland is a dangerous place full of monsters.
So I want to find some aspiring people to travel with me. Of course, there is no mandatory requirement to travel with me. At ordinary times, everyone can move freely, and I will not interfere with how you want to explore.
But if we encounter monsters, I think it is reasonable for everyone to fight side by side.
In order to ensure good order during the battle and to enable smooth communication and avoid internal strife, I require all adventurers participating in the operation to obey my command during the march. I don’t care what you do after setting up camp, but when encountering danger, everyone must act according to my orders.
Let me be frank with you. If you do anything harmful or endangers this collective, I will not be polite.
If you think you can do it, can follow instructions and understand cooperation, please come and sign up. If you can't do it, please leave. Don't waste each other's time. Okay, I've finished talking. If you want to sign up, you can find Knight Commander Razidanan to sign up."
Murphy's warning did not affect the players' enthusiasm for signing up. A militarized command mode is definitely necessary for large-scale operations. Otherwise, given the nature of the players, they would be a group of scattered sand and it would not be surprising if they could do anything out of the ordinary. Instead, this warning made the presidents of the major guilds feel that this event was quite reliable and worth participating in.
Suddenly, a huge crowd of people rushed towards Razidanan.
Murphy looked for a while and was about to leave when a teasing voice came from the air.
"Oh, oh, oh, our Prince Aidan is quite impressive. He has the potential to be a leader."
There is no need to guess, you know it must be that arrogant girl Morgan Lisa.
When I turned around, it was indeed her. She was riding on the back of a green dragon, looking down at the adventurers, looking very stylish.
Murphy looked up and smiled, "You're here, welcome to join."
"Haha, I came here to get two more top-quality equipment. Please don't let me down."
Morgan Lisa landed and jumped off the dragon's back, drew out the 'Dragon Summoning' and waved it casually. The green dragon turned into a green dragon soul and sank into the sword.
Morgan Lisa inserted the sword into the scabbard at her waist with her backhand. It must be said that this legendary weapon is really convenient. It has its own mount effect, and the summoned dragon soul skill can be used as a mount in a fight.
"Oh, is this your fleet? Very cool, you are worthy of being a prince of a wealthy family."
There are many people who spend money to play games, and those who can get into the royal circle are all wealthy players.
However, it is still a bit exaggerated to spend 10 million to build a fleet just for the purpose of exploration.
Murphy smiled calmly: "It's just a few ships, no big deal."
But I thought to myself, I have spent all the money, so I should still be Versailles.
Soon the second hero arrived.
Phoenix rode an armed griffin and slowly landed on the open space at the dock.
He put away the griffin and strode towards Murphy.
The last time at Broken Spear Peak, Phoenix crawled out of the ashes of the explosion. She was covered in dust at the time and no one paid much attention to her. But now Murphy discovered that she was actually a beauty.
She was wearing a red and gold knight's armor. At first glance, the armor looked thick and safe, but if you looked closely, you could see that the armor had many hollow designs on the waist, chest, thighs, etc., revealing large areas of snow-white skin.
The shape is heroic yet sexy, with a sword and a shield on his back. Looking at the enchanted luster on them, it is obvious that they are not ordinary stuff.
A head of fiery red hair, fixed behind the head with a golden crown.
I have to say, this girl's look is quite attractive and it's obvious that she put a lot of thought into it.
Murphy couldn't help but be in a trance for a moment.
Phoenix walked up to Murphy and saluted him like a knight.
Phoenix (Messenger of Holy Light): "Hello, Prince Aidan, nice to see you again." He said with a shy smile, as if he was a little embarrassed by being stared at.
Aidan (Captain of the Dragon Knights): "I'm glad to meet you too. Welcome aboard."
Morgan Lisa whistled jokingly, "Welcome, welcome, we will be teammates from now on. Come, tell me about your professional skills so that we can cooperate with each other in the future." Then she enthusiastically grabbed Phoenix's hand and the two went on the boat together.
The third person to arrive was Kaya Windrunner. She descended from the sky riding a dragon eagle. She dismounted her mount before she landed, did a 360-degree somersault in mid-air, and then landed in front of Murphy in a very handsome superhero-like posture.
Murphy was shocked.
Kaya Windrunner was wearing the elven ranger's iconic green cloak, with the elf's iconic pointed ears visible under the hood, a tight leather armor, a longbow behind him, two swords at his waist, and a falcon standing on his shoulder.
The Ranger profession has two sets of skill systems, long-range and melee. Most players will major in one and practice the other, but there are also players who practice both bow and sword, and can do both close and long-range combat.
This person looks like the type who practices dual cultivation.
Kaya Windrunner (Bright Ranger): "Thank God I'm not late. Wow, is this your flagship? So cool. Oh, by the way - I'm Kaya Windrunner, the sixth of the seven Windrunner sisters. Nice to meet you. By the way, where is the ship I'm going to board? It must be this big ship, right? Haha, there's no need to send me off. I can find a place to live by myself."
After saying that, he patted Murphy on the shoulder and went straight onto the boat.
Murphy was speechless for a while. This man looked very outgoing and full of energy, which made Murphy feel a little amused.
The dwarf master craftsman came up and patted Murphy's thigh. "Hey, man, you have good taste. You found so many beautiful women as your teammates. Wow, it really is great to have money. You can even have a harem in the game."
Murphy was stunned. He had never thought about the issue of gender. When he chose teammates before, he chose them based entirely on their professional ability requirements.
As for choosing four beauties...I guess it can be said to be a coincidence.
Although only three of them have appeared so far, since her name is Meng Meng Da Boobs and she is a pastor, Murphy subconsciously thinks that she must be a beauty. She can't be a hairy man.
"Don't talk nonsense, it just happens that the heroes I like are all women."
"Haha, no need to explain , I understand, I understand. Okay, the boat payment has been settled, and it's time for me to leave. I wish you a pleasant voyage, and don't forget to look for us if you have business in the future."
"must."
Watching Luban No. 7 and the dwarf workers leave, Murphy was wondering if he was really looking for beautiful teammates for himself subconsciously.
Then I heard an unusually soft and cute voice coming from behind me.
"Well, please, are you Aidan's brother?"
Mo Fei's eyes lit up when he heard the voice. She was indeed a beauty, and a cute one at that.
Brother Aidan…it makes me feel good just by listening to it.
When he turned around, he saw a dwarf woman who was about 1.5 meters tall and 1.5 meters waistline looking at him shyly.
This dwarf lady is wearing a heavy mithril armor with the sacred runes of the sun god etched on the armor with fine gold. She holds a shield with the sun emblem on it in one hand and a war hammer in the other hand. This outfit makes her look very safe.
However, no matter how heavy the attire is, it cannot conceal the turbulent waves beneath the armor.
Cute big breasts...the name really suits her.
Aidan (Captain of the Dragon Knights): "Hello, I am Captain Aidan. Are you Meng Meng Big Boobs? Please get on board."
Cute Big Boobs (Holy Priest): "Then I'll be polite. Brother Aidan, won't you take me up? This is my first time here and I don't know the way."
Murphy felt his scalp tingling. Although the voice was soft, the appearance of this old lady made him feel as if he was looking directly at an ancient god and felt blasphemous.
"I don't know the way either. This is a new ship. Find a room by yourself. The captain will arrange one for you."
After finally coaxing this person onto the boat, Murphy wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Is it too late to change people now?
At this time, Razidanan came over and said, "Your Highness, the adventurers have gathered and are ready to set off at any time."
Murphy took a deep breath and said, "Okay, let them get on board."
I thought to myself that I was not afraid, since we were just teaming up for an adventure and it wasn't like we were really starting a harem. Let alone a dwarf lady, I wouldn't be afraid even if a hairy-chested guy came along.
Soon, all five warships were packed with people.
With one thousand adventurers, five hundred dragon riders, five hundred dragon-blooded giant warriors, and several hundred sailors in charge of the expedition, the Northrend expedition fleet slowly sailed out of the port.
Murphy stood at the bow, facing the howling sea breeze, and swung his sword fiercely, "Destination: Dragonbone Wilderness—Let's go!"
