Chapter 149
Hearing Lin Yuan's question, Variks first glanced at Mephas, and then his gaze returned to Lin Yuan.
This guy Mephas has some strength, but not much, and can barely be regarded as cannon fodder.
As for himself, he can be regarded as the main force, the kind that can fight tough battles.
But Variks is a little unsure about Lin Yuan's role.
Being able to destroy Levisus's mental body is very powerful, and no one in the entire Red Dragon Legion can compare to it.
But now the opponent is a demon, and the power in Lin Yuan may not be effective.
Demons have high magic resistance, and some demons are even immune to magic.
After thinking about it, Variks planned to let Lin Yuan support him from the side. If he failed, Mephas and Lin Yuan could still escape in time.
"Now there are only two of us adult red dragons in the holy land, and there are some other young dragons, but their fighting power is only slightly stronger than that of half-dragons, so they can only be used as cannon fodder if taken out."
As the queen's spouse, Variks' authority is much higher than that of Mephas. After he entered the temple, he instantly knew the situation of the entire holy land.
There are less than 30 underage red dragons in total, including the 16 newly hatched dragons.
There are only Mephas and himself as adult dragons.
There are quite a few half-dragons, more than 200.
But these half-dragons are usually responsible for taking care of dragon eggs. If they are taken away, there will be no one to take care of nearly a thousand dragon eggs.
After telling Lin Yuan about these situations, Lin Yuan was very speechless.
"You are the Red Dragon Legion after all, how come you are in such a mess? There are only two adult red dragons in the holy land, it's too shabby."
Lin Yuan's words made Variks and Mephas very ashamed.
Variks explained:"A year ago, the queen led most of the members of the Red Dragon Legion to fight, and only a dozen of the tribesmen were left in the holy land. Later we were ambushed. During the battle, the queen was controlled, more than half of the Red Dragon Legion were killed or injured, and the remaining hundreds of companions and the queen were captured alive."
"I led Mephas to break out, but we were caught up again. I stayed behind to cover the retreat and asked Mephas to go back to the Holy Land for help. Who knew that the Holy Land had also been infiltrated?"
After regaining the authority of the Holy Land, Variks already knew what had happened in the Holy Land.
"A dozen tribesmen who stayed in the holy land were killed by Hellion and a group of mysterious people. After killing the remaining tribesmen, the group of mysterious people disappeared. Then Mephas suddenly came back and was arrested. Since then, in order to prevent other tribesmen from returning to the holy land, Hellion sealed off the space of the Ruby Holy Land."
Hearing this, Lin Yuan finally understood the cause and effect.
The Red Dragon Legion was calculated in advance.
If he hadn't appeared, after a few years when Hellion completely absorbed the power of the Ruby Holy Crystal, Levisus's mind body would definitely break the seal.
At that time, Levisus would definitely occupy Hellion's body.
So, Hellion was a poor tool from beginning to end.
He thought he had obtained a powerful force, but in fact he was Levisus's backup carrier.
"So, there are only three of us on this mission?"
Variks nodded."Yes."
"How many people are there on the other side?"
Varix thought for a while,"The demons built a fortress in the Hanging Mountain, with at least 10,000 demons stationed in it."
After saying that, Variks was worried that the gap between the two sides was too great and would scare Lin Yuan, so he added,"Among these 10,000 demons, only 3 are above level 60, including one level 70, and the rest are nothing to worry about."
After listening to Variks' description, Lin Yuan suddenly didn't want to take this task anymore. There are
3 combatants on our side, 1 of whom is cannon fodder.
The enemy has 10,000 combatants, basically all elites, and 3 top combatants.
Is there any hope?
I'm not a god of magic, can I fight 10,000 alone ?
"A strong attack won't work. Do you have any way to sneak in? Didn't you say that the other red dragons were captured? We can sneak in and rescue them. This way, our chances of winning will be higher."With such a big difference in combat power, don't even think about a strong attack. Lin Yuan suggested sneaking in secretly.
"Do you know where the red dragons are imprisoned? It would be best to rescue your queen as well. That way, it would be foolproof."
After hearing Lin Yuan's suggestion, Mephas and Variks' eyes suddenly lit up.
"Why didn't we think of that?"
Variks scratched his head,"Human, you are right, we shouldn't have been so reckless and just went to their door, we should have rescued my people first."
"I don't know where my people are, but we can sneak in and investigate."
Variks said, and his body began to shrink and turned into a human form.
Then, Variks used Transfiguration to turn into a demon.
"How about it, human? You are shocked by my Transfiguration, right? This is an advanced Transfiguration, which is very difficult to detect."
Varix said proudly. Seeing the shrunken Variks, Lin Yuan complained in his heart: This is too eye-catching.
With the passive skill of the Vision of Breaking Illusions, Lin Yuan can see through all illusions.
Variks' Transfiguration has no effect at all in Lin Yuan's eyes.
At this moment, in Lin Yuan's eyes, Variks is just a humanoid monster with a dragon head.
Imagine if there is a weird guy with a dragon head and a human body standing in front of you and feeling complacent, what would your reaction be?
The first reaction is scary, and the second reaction is funny.
Although Lin Yuan thought it was funny, McFarlane didn't think so.
"Lord Variks's Transfiguration is so advanced that it can be mistaken for a real person. Without knowing more, I can't tell whether Lord Variks is a demon or not."
Meffas has just come of age and has not yet mastered Transfiguration. Seeing Variks' ability to transform into a demon, he was very envious.
In general, Variks's skills are not effective against Lin Yuan, but they can still deceive demons.
"How are you going to sneak in?"
With Transfiguration, Lin Yuan asked again.
Variks thought for a moment,"I can just walk in directly. My Transfiguration can't be seen through at all, and these demons won't doubt my identity."
Lin Yuan was speechless again.
"You need to prepare an identity so that you can answer more easily when others ask you. If you talk nonsense, you will be discovered by others."
After saying this, Lin Yuan suddenly felt a little tired.
It was no wonder that the Red Dragon Corps fell into this situation. It turned out that they were all a bunch of pigs.
Variks looked mighty and majestic, but why did he seem to have no brains?
I really don't know why the Red Dragon Queen chose him as her mate.
Is it because Variks's dragon root is bigger than other red dragons?
