87: Chapter 87 As expected, it was Hei Fei's face.
"This thing is way too big!" Gu Na stared in a daze.
Although the Iron-Armored Dragon before them was in its juvenile stage, its size was already quite considerable. However, its speed was painfully slow to watch.
"It is a bit big, but its speed just isn't there. What's the plan now?" The man in white was also dumbfounded.
This speed... undoubtedly meant it was only good for taking hits. But she decided to clarify the situation first before anything else.
Mu Cheng also pondered, "Is this thing really just in its juvenile stage right now? What will it be like when it grows up? Wouldn't it become a machine of destruction?"
Just as Chu Yaoyao had said, its defense was as high as the ninth rank, even though its speed was a bit lacking.
It was hard to imagine what kind of consequences would occur if this thing grew up and appeared in a city.
Peppa: "It is indeed in its juvenile stage. There's only one way to deal with an Iron-Armored Dragon: either forcibly break through its defense, or exhaust its stamina."
The Iron-Armored Dragon's defense was too abnormal. Even Peppa, who was widely experienced, knew very few humans capable of forcibly breaking its defense.
They were extremely rare. However, there were plenty who could exhaust its stamina...
"Breaking its defense is impossible, but how do we exhaust its stamina?" Chu Yaoyao pondered for a long time before speaking.
This thing wasn't very fast. Exhausting its stamina clearly wouldn't be easy to accomplish.
"Regardless, let's just attack first!" Gu Na watched as the Iron-Armored Dragon inched closer.
Seeing no other way, she had no choice but to act. She summoned several Wood Vine Persons and willed them to attack the Iron-Armored Dragon.
"It's useless. Don't waste your energy." Peppa didn't even need to think to know the final outcome.
The result was exactly as Peppa said. The Iron-Armored Dragon's defense was completely unbreakable... they couldn't harm it in the slightest.
"Let's attack together!" Chu Yaoyao also stopped overthinking and attacked the Iron-Armored Dragon.
The man in white, Tao Mumu, and Tao Shuishui also joined the battle... Unfortunately, the result was the same, failing to harm the Iron-Armored Dragon at all.
"This thing has incredibly strong defense. We need to calm down and think of a proper plan." Seeing the attacks were ineffective,
Mu Cheng had no intention of joining the fight. He finally relented and asked,
"Little Piglet, do you have any ideas?"
Peppa: "The method is simple. Just exhaust its stamina... You all really are of the same mold, can't you use your brains a bit more?"
Simple? Easy to say, but not so easy to do.
"We can't break its defense at all, Brother Cheng... have you thought of any method?" Gu Na suddenly returned to Mu Cheng's side and asked.
She was truly at a loss, which is why she came back.
The others were the same... Seeing their attacks had no effect, they all retreated as well.
"This thing seems to be guarding treasure chests. Should we try opening one to see?" Tao Shuishui suddenly asked slowly.
Chu Yaoyao immediately refused. "No, opening treasure chests definitely isn't that simple. We should be more careful!"
If it were really that simple, how could a ninth-rank expert have been seriously injured? But the question arose... why was that ninth-rank expert injured?
It was indeed somewhat puzzling.
Gu Na: "Mhm, I also think it's not that simple. Otherwise, how could the ninth-rank expert from the previous group have been injured?"
"This won't work, that won't work... now tell us what we should do!" Tao Mumu was clearly getting impatient.
Even Peppa couldn't help but speak up. "What can we do? Of course, use your brains more. What else?"
"You... if you have a way, can't you explain it more clearly?" Mu Cheng held back his anger and asked slowly.
Peppa: "Figure it out yourself."
Clearly, it was being petulant and didn't tell Mu Cheng and the group, leaving them to figure it out on their own.
Just as everyone was truly at a loss, Tao Shuishui suddenly blurted out,
"How about grabbing its tail and smashing it around?"
"This... what are you thinking? Grabbing its tail and smashing it around requires some skill, doesn't it?" Mu Cheng didn't even think it through before instinctively speaking.
Peppa: "Correct answer. What to do now, I don't need to explain further, right?"
"Are you sure you're not joking?" Mu Cheng suddenly reacted.
This was indeed possible... and could be done, but it required someone with the strength for it!
"I'll give it a try!" Chu Yaoyao suddenly erupted with fighting spirit and quickly circled to the Iron-Armored Dragon's back.
She grabbed its tail and started smashing it around fiercely...
"See clearly now? This Iron-Armored Dragon isn't even that heavy. With her ninth-rank Wanshi strength plus fighting spirit, isn't it easy? So in the future, before fighting, use your brains more."
Peppa let out another round of scolding.
Mu Cheng was also dumbfounded. He never expected such a large Iron-Armored Dragon... to be smashed around by Chu Yaoyao like that.
It was enough to see that she had now transformed into a violent woman... as violent as could be.
"It seems dealing with it shouldn't be a problem." The man in white also never expected the result to be like this.
Gu Na sighed. "Hey! Such fierce attacks earlier, and now it's solved just like that... really a bit hard to imagine."
"Alright, even so, we still need to be careful!" Mu Cheng didn't let his guard down; on the contrary, he became very cautious.
Peppa wasn't worried at all. "Relax, there's no more danger nearby. Also, go ahead and loot those treasure chests!"
Now was the time to indeed gather rare herbs and flowers, and the treasure chests...
"Don't hold back on my account, go do what you need to do!" Chu Yaoyao wasn't a stingy person either.
Already having reaped a full harvest herself, and having lost all interest in the treasure chests, she gave the word.
But in less than a minute, Tao Shuishui suddenly said,
"Wow! Brother Cheng, I actually looted a divine weapon. I'll just give it to you! I have no use for it anyway..."
"I also looted a divine weapon." Gu Na also spoke up.
The man in white: "What luck you have! Forget divine weapons... I haven't even seen many Transcendent Martial Arts."
"Yeah, your luck is too good!" Tao Mumu also expressed.
[Can't this group keep it down a bit? I should have tried my luck earlier. Looks like there's probably no chance now.]
Hearing Chu Yaoyao's inner thoughts, Mu Cheng really felt like laughing... but he didn't believe in his own cursed luck.
Since he was bored anyway, he went over to loot chests with them. "Let me try too... see if I can get something good."
The result... after opening two chests in a row, he didn't even see an ability card or a bloodline awakening card, let alone a divine weapon.
"Forget it, you guys go ahead. Just hand all the divine weapons over to me." Mu Cheng was quite shrewd.
Knowing that Gu Na, Tao Mumu, and Tao Shuishui didn't understand divine weapons well, he simply took them all...
"Finally got a divine weapon. But honestly, this divine weapon looks pretty ordinary... doesn't seem much different from a black gold weapon." The man in white studied the longsword in his hand.
Mu Cheng snatched the longsword over. "It's not much use either, so I'll keep it."
"Fine! I'll keep looting to see if I can get something good." The man in white truly didn't mind at all and went back to looting chests.
