Volume 8: The Road to the Ancient Dragon Chapter 422: Curious Drop
Aidan (Protector of Alterac): "Don't think too much. Let's divide the equipment first."
Murphy said that this was something that people welcomed.
After hearing this, Emperor Shenwu perked up and nodded. It was always a good thing to have equipment points.
At this time, the others also gathered around.
The two men gathered the troops together again and found that the casualties in this battle were extremely heavy.
Especially the first wave of ranged troops that ambushed the Proto-Dragon King. They had no resistance against Ankara's attack. If they had not been sufficiently dispersed, they would have been wiped out.
Even if the whole team was not wiped out, there were still heavy casualties. Among them, the dwarves suffered the heaviest losses. They had the strongest firepower and the highest hatred. More than fifty dragon hunting musketeers were killed, which was more than half of the total number.
More than forty Phantom Archers died, and even the elite captain who led the team died. Murphy didn't even notice how they died.
The losses of the Centaurs were much smaller. These animals had four legs and could run very fast. When they saw that something was wrong, they would run as fast as they could and could shoot arrows while running. Two hundred of them were dispatched, but only about thirty of them were killed.
In addition, more than 20 air force members who participated in the siege in the later period were killed. The main reason was that Ankara was too big and would occasionally be torn down by its claws during dive attacks.
Moreover, Ankara's roar skill has a very large range, and if you get too close, you will be roared back.
But overall, this battle went smoothly and there was no hard fight from beginning to end. On the one hand, the troop lineup was strong enough, bringing together so many powerful soldiers from the Alliance and the Dark Night Alliance. On the other hand, Murphy felt that it was also related to Ankara's failure to absorb elemental power. No matter how big or strong he was, it would be useless without skills.
A pure meat target.
He is quite resistant to beatings.
Although that super evolution was not bad, it was only used once. Fortunately, I still had Dragon Soul Annihilation saved for his ultimate move.
However, it would be hard to say whether we could deal with this guy without the participation of the Emperor of Shenwu and the night elves.
Even if he won, most of his one thousand extraordinary soldiers would be killed or injured.
It seems that it is really thanks to the suggestion of Emperor Shenwu.
Everyone gathered around the BOSS's corpse which was as big as a hill. Murphy took away the dragon's heart first, as this thing was the most important.
Ankarad's Heart (Core Material)
Plot Items: Unique
Item introduction: The dragon heart of the ancestor dragon king Ankarad. Although Ankarad is dead, the heart is still very active and keeps beating.
The Proto-Dragon is the original form of all dragons. Before it gained extraordinary powers, its form was like that of a wild beast. Ankara was willing to accept the survival instinct of a wild beast, and thus became the only ancient Proto-Dragon.
(You can feel the original power of the ancient dragon clan from this burning dragon heart)]
Since we had greeted each other before, no one objected.
They are all waiting to be divided up into the remaining equipment.
Murphy was not in a hurry to divide the spoils. He first arranged the order of distribution according to the contribution of this battle. The process was not smooth. Everyone had witnessed this battle and it was clear who made the greater contribution.
The Great Emperor Shenwu was naturally the number one contributor after Murphy, and he controlled the movement of the dragon throughout the game.
The second is Morgan Lisa, who destroyed the dragon’s flying ability.
Then it was Hemit, who dealt a lot of damage.
Finally, it's the cute big nurse - this nurse is just a supporting role in this battle. The key is that Ankara's damage is too high, and all the soldiers are killed instantly. There is no chance to add blood at all. The heroes hide far away and dare not take on the monsters at all.
Only Murphy enjoyed a few shots of Great Holy Light, but he was running around anyway, so he was ranked last.
Aidan (Protector of Alterac): "Okay everyone, according to the rules we set before, one need, many greeds, one for each person, I want to touch it."
As he said this, he moved towards the corpse.
A list of drops immediately appeared in front of everyone.
This Ankara is big and the items it drops are equally astonishing, with more than twenty items dropped, but only four of them have names.
The first one——
[Ankarad's Terrifying Roar (Extraordinary Combat Skill/Dragon Skin Scroll)
Description of combat skills: Let out a terrifying roar, making the creatures around you fall into fear and despair. The louder your voice, the wider the skill range and the longer it lasts.
Learning conditions: Physical fitness 80, endurance 80.
Skill Introduction: A combat skill scroll engraved on dragon skin, describing the terrifying roar of Ankara. Ankara is the overlord of the Un'Goro Crater. His terrifying roar makes all creatures living here feel fear and despair, and no one dares to fight against him. 】
The meaning of this skill is a bit unclear. It is a bit similar to another skill - Stunning Roar. The key is that the power of the skill depends on the voice. It is estimated that the effect will be best when used by the Minotaur. However, compared with the effect of Ankara's own body, it is estimated that it will be much worse.
However, this extraordinary fighting skill is unique in the world and is still very valuable.
The second one——
[Evolution Blood (Legendary/Consumable)
Use: Evolve a beast, gain an extraordinary trait, or enhance a normal skill to an extraordinary skill (only available for beasts).
Item Introduction: The understanding of the life form that Ankara de realized in the process of continuous devouring - 'Evolution, continuous evolution, never-ending evolution, only evolution is the only guarantee for survival in this world!'
This drop of dragon blood contains a hint of potential power for its continued evolution. 】
This thing is still somewhat useful. It can be used for mounts, combat pets, small pets, and the druid's beast form. It can even be sold to players with the beast template, but it takes some effort to figure out how to trade it.
Generally speaking, a combat pet is considered a top-grade pet if it has an extraordinary combat skill. If used well, it can elevate the top-grade pet to a higher level and become extremely valuable.
The third one——
[Ankarad's Stomach (Backpack/Epic)
Backpack slots: 1.
Equipment Effect 1: Extra Large Capacity. The items contained in this backpack are not limited by volume, and can hold up to 'Extra Large' items.
Equipment Effect 2: Manual Devouring. This backpack can be used to store biological units (it must be used when the unit cannot resist, the stored unit can try to escape through strength judgment, and it cannot be used on units larger than super large).
Item Introduction: Ankara's huge stomach. It is said that Ankara can devour everything. No matter how much food is eaten, it cannot fill its stomach. The secret of its ability to devour everything comes from its magical stomach. 】
The fourth one——
[Ankarad's Great Dragon Fang (Two-handed Hammer/Legendary)
Plot Items: Unique.
Attack power: 128-302 (siege damage).
Attack speed – 30%.
Equipment requirement: 80 strength.
Weapon Effect 1: Extreme Armor Break (Passive). When your attack hits the target, there is a certain probability that the target's armor will be destroyed, reducing the target's armor to 0.
Weapon Effect 2: Shattered to pieces (passive). If the target is killed by this weapon, it will be shattered and cannot be resurrected by resurrection or control of the undead.
Weapon Effect 3: Super Endurance (Passive). When you launch an attack, your toughness value increases by 885 points, making you immune to most physical control effects.
Weapon Effect 4: Shield Breaker (Passive). When your weapon attack is blocked by a shield, the blocker's toughness will be reduced by 1,000 points. Targets with toughness below 0 will be knocked to the ground or thrown away.
Item introduction: A crude weapon made from Ankara's giant dragon fang. Its strange rock-like texture does not seem to be made of ordinary dragon bones.
The tip of the dragon's fang is used as a handle, and the thick root of the fang is like a giant hammer that can smash everything. Although the workmanship is crude, this huge dragon's fang itself has terrifying destructive power. It is said that those who hold this weapon can obtain the great power of Ankara. 】
This weapon made Murphy look sideways. It was the first weapon he had seen that had a higher attack power than his dragon-slaying sword. Just looking at its size was a bit terrifying. Ankara had a wingspan of 200 meters and a huge fang that was two meters long. The pointed end was the handle, and the thick root was the hammer head.
The strength requirement of 80 is 30 points higher than that of the Dragon Slaying Greatsword.
This thing is really a bit scary. It will probably be very useful for fighting big monsters. The special effects of the four weapons are all quite powerful, emphasizing that strength can defeat skill.
It's this -30% attack speed effect that's a bit disgusting. If you encounter an agile hero, you will probably be killed.
The following twenty-four items, however, were all of the same kind—the contents of Ankara.
It looks like a ball of black slime.
[Contents of Ankara (garbage/????)
Identify: Get a random item.
Identification method: super strong dissolving agent.
Item Description: An item that was swallowed by Ankara and was difficult to digest. After being soaked in the dragon's gastric juice for a long time, it has lost its original appearance. The contents formed after being wrapped by the condensed gastric juice may contain any item. 】
Murphy looked at the screen full of [Contents of Ankara] and sighed.
It has to be said that Ankara was a world-class fourth-level BOSS, one level higher than Pollelius. The drops were really pitiful, with only four treasures dropped.
Although there are two legendary quality drops, one of them is a consumable. This thing is definitely much worse than the plot weapon.
Moreover, most of them are body parts, which looks shabby.
I just don't know if this content can produce anything good.
Murphy waved his hand generously, "I've already taken the dragon's heart, you can divide the remaining four."
As the second greatest hero of this battle, Emperor Shenwu was the first choice without a doubt. After taking a few glances, he chose Ankarad's Dragon Fang. After all was a legendary weapon. Since he couldn't upgrade to the legendary rank for the time being, it would be nice to get a weapon.
Especially this big dragon tooth has a unique shape, it looks very individual and cool.
Moreover, the equipment you obtain with your own hands also gives you a greater sense of accomplishment.
Morgan Lisa hesitated for a moment and chose [Ankara's Stomach (Backpack)]. These things were of no use to her. The biggest advantage of this stomach was that it could hold living things. The units frozen by the Eternal Frost could be taken back as souvenirs.
Hemit chose the blood of evolution, which he could use on his pets when he got a combat pet in the future.
Meng Meng Big Breasts chose [Dragon Skin Scroll: Ankarad's Terrifying Roar]. She couldn't learn this thing, so she could only take it back and sell it for money.
Next are the twenty or so stomach contents. These are not easy to divide. There are twenty-four in total, and no matter how you divide them, someone will always take one less.
But Hemit said, "I don't want such a good thing. How about giving me the material from the dragon?"
Mo Fei thought to himself that you are quite smart. With such a big dragon, you will definitely need dragon bones, dragon skin, dragon blood and so on.
But he didn't bring any collectors, so it seemed like he had no other options.
The other people looked at each other and were about to bargain when Hemit suddenly burst into tears.
"Oh, my boys, you died so tragically. How can I face your families again? Odin, please take me with you.
I just hope that this harvest can bring some comfort to your family, woo woo woo."
Several people were speechless for a moment. This was too shameless of them to bring up dead bodies. However, it was true that the most deaths were among dwarves.
"Okay, okay, stop crying. It's yours. It's yours."
"I think so."
Hemet wiped his tears and shouted to the dwarves, "Boys, what are you waiting for? Get busy."
A group of dragon hunting musketeers immediately took out their skinning knives and began to collect and work.
I didn’t expect that this dragon hunting musketeer also has gathering skills. He is indeed a professional dragon hunter.
Since Hemet had taken the dragon's materials, the remaining twenty-four stomach contents were divided equally among the four people, giving each person exactly six.
Murphy looked at the six black things in the bag and still had some expectations in his heart.
The dragon's gastric juice can melt even steel. Anything that can survive in Ankara 's stomach must be a good thing.
Maybe there's some unfortunate dragon slayer's armor or something.
Unfortunately, it requires a super strong dissolving potion to identify it, so I have to go to the alchemy shop again.
After distributing the items, everyone was excited.
It’s a great harvest.
Only the Emperor Shenwu was carrying a huge dragon tooth with a worried look on his face.
Murphy: "Don't be discouraged, I think I will be able to advance sooner or later."
Emperor Shenwu (King of Centaurs): "But it's a world-destroying BOSS... Alas, it's something you can only encounter by chance."
Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "As far as I know, Ner'zhul is a world-destroying boss."
"real?"
"No doubt about it. I fought him when the Alliance and the Horde were at war. At that time, he was already a legendary tier 2 hero. After he turned evil, he must be a tier 2 world-destroying boss. If he's still here, let's team up and kill him. Then your legendary rank will be upgraded."
Emperor Shenwu nodded slightly, this is also an option.
When Hemit and his dwarves finished collecting all the materials from the dragon, the Great Emperor Shenwu could not wait to go back.
Murphy did not refuse. After all, he had borrowed someone else's troops, so it was only right for him to help them fight a battle. He was already at Gold Five, and maybe he could reach the next level after finishing the story campaign, and then he would be able to join the ranks of epic heroes.
The group boarded the airship and began their return voyage.
While looking at the scenery, Murphy opened the expertise interface.
The three heroes' specialties were lined up in a row, and Murphy looked at them carefully.
