From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 307 - 245: The Dragon’s Treasure, Exposing the Traitor
The Purgatory Sub-Dragon lay fallen on Black Stone Square, its head severed.
Such a tremendous creature, even a single scale from its body was a precious material.
Having cleared out the Bloodline Demons from Black Stone City, Lu Heng returned to Black Stone Square to collect materials from the Purgatory Sub-Dragon.
Just as he got back to Black Stone Square, he saw Charles Water and the team from Pu Xianzhen surrounding the corpse of the Purgatory Sub-Dragon, energetically stripping its scales.
Charles Water had even weapon in hand, digging into the dragon's eye socket, trying to extract the Dragon Eye.
The most precious materials from a dragon were mostly concentrated around the head.
After dealing with the Bloodline Demons, Lu Heng had flown back along the walls of Black Stone City and with a leap, he landed on Black Stone Square, delivering a chilling voice, "You seem quite adept at scavenging."
The Black Iron Dwarves were all searching the hidden corners of Black Stone City, other Superpower Users were also clearing the fleeing Bloodline Demons. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
Only Charles Water's smart threesome of teams were vigorously working around the Purgatory Sub-Dragon's carcass.
Seeing Lu Heng return, Charles Water quickly pulled away his teammates and backed off, diplomatically saying,
"Don't get me wrong, I just wanted to remove the dragon scales first. If you want them, they are all yours."
Having said that, he placed the materials they had taken onto the ground and then retreated to a distance, going elsewhere to sweep the battlefield.
These people were unexpectedly tactful, which was a bit of a surprise to Lu Heng.
The fight had indeed ended, and it was truly time for battlefield cleanup.
Lu Heng, holding the Aurora Blade, dug out the Purgatory Sub-Dragon's Dragon Eyes.
[Dragon Eye: Precious dragon creature material, can be processed into Dragon Eye Gemstones, possessing the effect of enhancing Spiritual Attribute.]
There were two Dragon Eyes in total; if he found a suitable gemstone artisan, they could be crafted into two Dragon Eye Gemstones.
Then, Lu Heng also cut off the Purgatory Sub-Dragon's Dragon Horns.
These were also extremely precious materials and could be used as Forging Materials.
Before, when he wanted to proceed with the third forging of the Aurora Blade, Master Gulu had flipped through the ancient tomes of the Black Iron Tribe, finding the recipe required for forging an S-Level Divine Weapon.
According to the ancient records, the Black Iron Tribe had once forged an S-Level Divine Weapon, and among the needed materials, one item was the horn of a Demon Blood Sub-Dragon.
Although Purgatory Sub-Dragons and Demon Blood Sub-Dragons were not the same kind, both were dragons of the same level, only differing in Attributes.
Hence, since the horn of a Demon Blood Sub-Dragon could be used as a Forging Material, the horn of a Purgatory Sub-Dragon could be used as well.
Lu Heng put away both horns, preparing to take them back as Forging Materials for the third forging of the Aurora Blade.
At that moment.
Several Da Xia Superpower Users approached, including Wang Zhehan's four-person team and Zhao Liwen, who owned the Spiritual Torture Skill.
"Uh… could we take some materials? Just some Dragon Scales would be enough," they mustered the courage to make their request.
These Superpower Users had also participated in the siege, hence they had the right to share in the spoils of war.
Lu Heng pointed at the Purgatory Sub-Dragon and said, "Help yourselves. The more intact the scales, the more valuable they are. However, leave me one Reverse Scale."
"Okay, okay," the group from Da Xia having heard Lu Heng's consent to share the spoils immediately took out their weapons and went forward to strip the Dragon Scales.
After a while, Wang Zhehan pointed to a scale under the Purgatory Sub-Dragon's neck, shouting, "There's one scale growing in reverse here; do you think this is the Reverse Scale?"
Lu Heng, hearing his shout, hurried over a few steps to see, and indeed it was the Purgatory Sub-Dragon's Reverse Scale, which he levered off with the Aurora Blade.
The Reverse Scale of a dragon was the hardest among all scales, key for creating armor with maximum defensive power.
Finally, Lu Heng also took a Dragon Claw, a vial of Dragon Blood, and a piece of intact Dragon Scale, leaving the rest for other Superpower Users and the Black Iron Tribe to divide.
More power users had come over to strip the Dragon Scales, including Charles Water and his three teams from Pu Xianzhen who also set about stripping Dragon Scales.
Although the most precious materials had already been taken by Lu Heng, the remaining Dragon Scales, Dragon Tail, and Dragon Bones were still valuable materials.
...
Not only Human Superpower Users, Darkville had also sent a squad of Black Iron Dwarf Warriors to strip the Dragon Scales.
A strip of Purgatory Sub-Dragon scales could be used to make many sets of Dragon Scale Armor for the Black Iron Tribes, which was top-level armory.
Lu Heng watched the group of Superpower Users stripping the Dragon Scales, a smile peeking at the corner of his mouth.
Now was the time when the most Summoned were gathered.
The battle to retake Black Stone City had ended, and with two days left before the fifteen-day limit,
the Black Iron Tribe had retaken Black Stone City, and the Purgatory Sub-Dragon had been killed.
There were no other threats in this world for the time being; the next two days wouldn't bring any dangerous fights.
Thus, after tonight, these Summoned Superpower Users would surely disperse and hide for two days, waiting for the time to return to the main world.
The reason for hiding for two days was very simple.
There was a Traitor among the Human Superpower Users.
Lu Heng had already confirmed the completion of the Challenge Tasks; the second and third tasks were shown as completed.
Only one Challenge Task remained unfinished, and the first Challenge Task was: identify and eliminate the fallen Traitor.
Because of the presence of the Traitor, the danger had not been completely eliminated.
The Traitor could attack and kill other Superpower Users at any time.
Of course, the Traitor might also choose to hide, fearing being exposed.
In short, this last chain of suspicion would lead all Summoned to hide and survive the last two days.
