162: The conspiracy was exposed, and there was another purpose.
The Consultant frowned, and Du Ruo beside him also wore an expression of unbearable pity!
If things continued this way, it wouldn't be long before the Silver Fire Dragon burned those magical beasts and even the Lava Team Beast Tamers to ashes.
But just then, the Consultant witnessed a scene that shocked him!
He saw someone in the Lava Team who looked like their leader.
Taking advantage of the moment the Silver Fire Dragon was attacking the magical beasts, he suddenly pulled a mirror from his bosom!
This mirror was not a magical item; instead, it looked more like a piece of technology!
The mirror surface was smooth and flat, and there was a red button on the back!
When he took out the mirror and held it high, the sunlight in the stone forest was instantly absorbed into it.
Seeing this, the Consultant's heart sank, and he suddenly realized what he was about to do.
But before he could react, the Lava Team member had already pressed the button on the back!
Zing!
Accompanied by a mechanical grinding sound, the mirror rapidly transformed, with several mirror lenses extending from its sides.
After a brief transformation, the mirror became larger, looking like a pot.
It gathered all the sunlight and then erupted with it all at once!
In an instant, it was as if a third sun had risen in the entire stone forest!
The blinding light made it impossible for anyone to look directly at it, and it was accompanied by an intense burning sensation!
At this moment, both the sun in the sky and the light of the Silver Fire Dragon were eclipsed by it!
As the dazzling white light appeared, the Consultant closed his eyes and heard the Silver Fire Dragon in mid-air let out a roar!
This time, there was a hint of pain in the dragon's roar!
The Consultant did not open his eyes, but he felt a massive object land not far away, causing the entire Silver Moon Forest to shake violently!
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept through, accompanied by rolling waves of heat!
"Cough, cough, damn it!"
The Consultant choked on the dust and coughed for a while, then, enduring the stinging pain, opened his eyes and looked forward.
The stone forest had undergone an earth-shattering change!
The Silver Fire Dragon had fallen to the ground, countless stone pillars had been smashed, and purple flames were continuously burning on its body!
"Oh no!"
Ruby, standing nearby, opened his eyes and saw this scene, his expression so grave it seemed as if it could drip water.
He explained hurriedly:
"The Silver Fire Dragon fears strong light, and coupled with the fall just now, the Calamity Flame inside it has spread and is burning its body!"
Ruby did not look at all like someone who was seeing a Silver Fire Dragon for the first time.
But the Consultant did not expose him; instead, he cautiously observed the people from the Lava Team.
Seeing the Silver Fire Dragon suffer from the backlash of its own Calamity Flame, their faces were filled with wild joy!
They quickly commanded the magical beasts around them to regroup and continue attacking the Silver Fire Dragon.
Between the effect of the item from earlier and the current Calamity Flame.
The Silver Fire Dragon had temporarily lost the ability to resist and could only use its alloy-like scales to fend off the magical beasts.
As for the Lava Team leader who had taken out the mirror, he waved to several people around him.
But somewhat unexpectedly, he did not go to capture the Silver Fire Dragon; instead, he led several people around the massive magical beast and headed towards the nest behind it!
"Stop, what are you doing?!"
While enduring the attacks, the Silver Fire Dragon also noticed the actions of those people.
Its tone was one of astonishment, and it struggled continuously.
But it couldn't stand up in the short term, let alone extinguish the flames on its body.
The Consultant had been watching from the side for a long time and had become interested in the true purpose of the Lava Team members.
Those people's goal was not solely the Silver Fire Dragon, as Ruby had claimed.
They were after something hidden in the Silver Fire Dragon's nest...
"Consultant, stop them quickly!"
After seeing this, Ruby could finally no longer sit still; his eyes were filled with urgency as he urged him on.
But his actions only made the Consultant sneer.
The Consultant asked in return, "What are they doing?"
"They are..." Ruby had just intended to answer, but suddenly his expression stiffened, and he quickly changed his words, "I don't know."
"Heh."
Seeing Ruby's expression, the Consultant smiled again, "Ruby, let's stop beating around the bush. Who exactly are you?"
"..."
After hearing this from the Consultant, Ruby's expression shifted several times in an instant.
The original anxiety and tension gradually disappeared, replaced by a cold, sinister look.
"How did you figure it out?"
The Consultant smiled without answering.
Since they first engaged, the Consultant had already discovered that there were issues with many details regarding Ruby.
For example, even though he had clearly never entered the depths of the Silver Moon Forest, he was able to accurately lead the Consultant to the Silver Fire Dragon.
Furthermore, when the Silver Fire Dragon was injured and fell to the ground just now, he was able to identify its weakness at a glance.
Even though he had previously said he had never seen a Silver Fire Dragon before!
And the information Black Marsh had given the Consultant also confirmed his suspicions.
It said... this Ruby is not just an ordinary Beast Tamer!
"Consultant, what's going on?" Du Ruo was a bit confused for a moment.
The Consultant gave Du Ruo a confident smile.
"Of course, it's because our kind guide has another agenda."
He looked at Ruby again and asked:
"Let me guess, you don't want to save the Silver Fire Dragon; instead, just like those people from the Lava Team, you are here for something in the nest, right?"
After this was said, Ruby's expression became even more sinister!
A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes held a hint of murderous intent.
The Slime's black eyes turned, staring at him from above the Consultant's head.
When Ruby saw this, he inexplicably deflated.
He was no match for the Consultant at all.
"Consultant, you are very smart!"
As Ruby spoke, he took off his coat, revealing a shirt underneath.
This shirt was blue, and there was an anchor-like logo on the chest!
After he shed his disguise, his aura changed instantly!
It was an aura exactly opposite to that of the Lava Team!
Unlike the scorching and restless aura, what emanated from Ruby was deep and cold!
Just like the ocean!
"Consultant, I think you are a very promising Beast Tamer, so..."
Ruby paused slightly here, then continued:
"As a scout for the Ocean Team, I extend an invitation to you. Please join us, and together we will change the entire Emerald Dreamscape!"
Ruby's emotions seemed very agitated.
And after he finished speaking, a description appeared before the Consultant's eyes.
