In order to guard against this, they had to expand the scope of their alert and be prepared to deal with the dragon disaster at any time.
They started to get busy.
Matthew quickly returned to the workshop in the cemetery.
He took out a stack of blank paper and began to write a review of the battle.
” The biggest difficulty in fighting dragons is that they have a huge body that far exceeds that of ordinary creatures, matching muscle density and natural armor.
“This made it impossible for ordinary sabres and spears to break through the defence of the dragon scales.
“Ordinary ballistae posed a certain threat to the dragons, but they were also difficult to kill.
“There was only one dragon crossbow that truly frightened the dragons, and it was very difficult to move it, requiring seven or eight soldiers to operate it.
“Its huge size and the terrifying density of its muscles, bones, and scales allowed the dragon to have an unusual fault tolerance in battle.
“Meonogas was twice the size of Phily, but he weighed more than twenty times as much.
“This gave them unstoppable destructive power when they charged.
“At the moment, it seemed that only Argus could fight him head-on. “Other units can’t hinder his freedom at all…”
Matthew stopped writing, sometimes flipping through books, sometimes stopping to think.
The natural armour was a powerful advantage of the dragon, but it could be countered.
In this battle, Matthew’s Disintegration spell played a remarkable role.
However, the problem was that while they had a powerful physical advantage, dragons also had extraordinary intelligence and mobility that far exceeded ordinary creatures.
If this guy chose to fight head-on.
He would have died countless times already.
From the beginning to the end, he had been hiding from the attack range of the dragon crossbow, and he was also very insidiously active in the areas with residents.
This made Matthew and the others feel restrained when they played on their home ground.
This was not even the result of the Black Dragon’s deliberate consideration.
It might just be a combat instinct inherited from the True Dragon.
He had to admit.
Dragons were indeed creatures favoured by the heavens.
Even if it was only a tier 5 dragon.
Only Legendary powerhouses could fight against it.
If only Rolling Stone Town had a Legendary Warrior or a Legendary Mage.” Matthew sighed softly.
However, there was only Richard, the legendary thief, in Rolling Stone Town.
Bandits were the most awkward when facing dragons.
Can it cause effective damage?
Yes.
But not much.
In theory, Legendary Thieves were the most effective against other Legendary classes of their sizes. However, facing such a giant…
They really couldn’t do much.
Fortunately, the Dagger of Equality that Matthew lent out could make up for this to a certain extent.
But no matter what.
Ordinary people would die if they were not careful in the process of fighting against the dragon.
This meant that Matthew had to do more homework to avoid this.
The workshop was silent.
There was only the rustling of the quill on the paper.
Other than the summary of the battle.
Matthew also recorded two anomalies.
The first point was what Richard had mentioned. The black dragon’s sneak attack was so sudden that even the silver snake, which was good at perception, did not have any warning in advance. This was completely illogical.
To achieve such an effect.
It required at least a Legendary-level advanced invisibility spell or a similar spell of the fifth tier and above that could be stacked several times. Considering the fact that the Black Dragon did not know any magic.
Someone must have concealed his figure for him.
The second point was that when the black dragon escaped, a layer of air burst out from his body.
The wave of air looked very similar to the dragon’s breath.
However, the nature was completely different.
At least Matthew didn’t see his chest bulge.
The blast was more like a spell-like ability.
However, Black Dragons were natural magic-insulated entities.
They wouldn’t know how to cast spells.
There were only two explanations left.
Firstly, the black dragon had some kind of treasure on it that could release a blast similar to the Ring of Fire.
The probability of this was low because Matthew did not see him take out any treasures when he used the airwave.
Secondly, the black dragon had the blessing of a high-level powerhouse. This blessing might exist in the form of divine spells.
This possibility was much higher.
The two abnormalities combined.
There must be at least one powerful being behind Black Dragon Meonogas who was proficient in divine spells!
However, in this era, the gods had been exiled to the Heavenly Palace, and it was difficult for the power of divine spells to reach the mortal world.
Who had secretly extended their tentacles to the periphery of Rolling Stone Town?
Matthew frowned and thought deeply.
A moment later. He let out a long breath.
“It’s not entirely impossible.
For a mage, as long as they have enough information, they will have a chance to kill the enemy no matter how powerful they are.”
He thought about it.
He quickly took out a brand -new piece of parchment and began to write.
To kill the Black Dragon Meonogas, one must first strangle his mobility…
A night passed.
Matthew had drawn up a preliminary plan to deal with the Black Dragon.
During the day.
He sent all the letters through the channels of the Cauldron House.
Considering that some of his friends had no fixed residence, Matthew even paid for a magic service called Paging Letter. With the support of this noble magic, as long as they were in the prime material plane, everyone could receive these letters within seven days.
Other than that.
Matthew also wrote two letters and handed them to Isabelle and Soria through the Alliance’s channels..
