Chapter 337 Stealing the Golden Eagle Cub
The giant rift spider has a dark body like a rock, which looks very disgusting. The eight sharp claws like spears can easily climb the steep cliffs, run like flying, and even play high-altitude leaps.
The Chilong Fort is a narrow section of the Rift Valley, with the narrowest part of only two or three miles. Standing on the excavated plank road corridor, you can see everything opposite the Rift Valley. When you lean over and look down at the bottom of the Rift Valley, you can see the silk screens about a meter wide and like bones connecting the cliffs on the north and south sides, like trestle bridges.
"This wire mesh can withstand the people walking on it?" Yang Ye asked, looking down.
The side of the river Sha Tianlang nodded and said, "Yes, not only can they bear people. I have even seen it with my own eyes. During the flood in spring, the beasts that did not have time to leave the rift zone were washed down from the cliffs by the flood, and when they fell down the rift, they fell on this spider web and were trapped in it. For many times, such a wire mesh could trap dozens of beasts!"
"The spider silk of the giant rift spider is very elastic and sticky. It is tightly clamped on both sides of the rift cliff, and is not afraid of flames. Unless it is burning with continuous intensity, the flame will fall on it and will be extinguished in a flash, and form a hard object like a rock, just like a bridge, which can withstand heavy objects, but is not resistant to heavy attacks. If you throw a huge rock and hit it, it will break!"
"At a few dozen feet below, there is actually a hidden spider bridge that leads to the opposite side of the cliff, but it is rarely used!"
"Oh, I seem to see a strange gray-white stone used in many places in Chilong Castle. Could it be that this kind of spider silk was formed after it was burned?"
"Well, except for a few large iron chains, the remaining skeletons use these spider silks as support. This giant spider in the Rift Valley makes people love and hate them!"
"I didn't expect that this spider silk would have such a wonderful use. Are these giant spiders in the rift valley still a group of construction workers?" Yang Ye's mind turned quickly. If a suitable lava crypt was found in the Great Rift Valley, the lava stones could be used to train soul gold, then the location of Tiangongfang would be on the agenda.
Transport the ore to Zhanlong City hundreds of miles away, or the Zhanxue City being built. Not to mention the cost along the way, it is just that there are so many beast groups and dangers that you will encounter along the way. You know that this one won’t work, and doing so will waste time. The best bibimbap is to expand the Chilong Fort nearby to accommodate the Tiangongfang.
Originally, Yang Ye had this plan, but after coming to Chilong Castle, Yang Ye was lost for a while because the terrain here was completely unsuitable for building a city. The construction of Chilong Castle was like a miracle. Moreover, this rift zone is full of ravines, with heavy floods in spring and summer, and in winter, countless beast groups will migrate and station. There is no place to build the city, and the other is danger. If it is built, it will be destroyed soon.
But after hearing the introduction of the giant spider of the rift valley and these huge silk screens, Yang Ye's thoughts became alive again. But before that, Yang Ye had to make sure that there was enough forged underground lava pool here, and the soul craftsmen brought were divided into more than 30 groups. Then, under the guidance of a soldier of Chilong Fort, he scattered out to find the cracks, caves and so on that connecting the underground. Yang Ye did not follow. After visiting Chilong Fort, the next day, Yang Ye found Shen Lanfeng, and the target was naturally the overlord in the sky, the golden eagle's cub.
On the Holy Spirit Continent, the air cavalry has always been a military branch at the top of glory, and each air cavalry has a military position equivalent to a camp lieutenant. Among the only a few air cavalry groups in the empire, almost all the selections are selected from the outstanding children of the nobles, not only the nobles, but also the current example. In the air cavalry group, the promotion speed is also the fastest, not inferior to the royal family.
The most difficult thing to build an air riding group is to have a considerable number of flying spirit beasts that can be used for riding. In this sentence, there are three key points, a considerable number, and an implicit point, which is taming.
There are many species of birds in the sky, and there are many people living in groups, with a population of tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands. However, if the conditions for riding are added, it is enough to eliminate more than 90% of the birds and spirit beasts. Being able to ride means that they are big enough, with a single wing span of less than two meters, and they cannot bear the weight of people at all. In other words, almost all the remaining birds and spirit beasts are left.
Raptors and spirit beasts are rarely sociable, mostly king-level earth beasts, dominating the sky, with very few numbers, and their descendants are very rare. For example, the largest griffin sky cavalry group in the empire, the earliest history can be traced back to the empires of the previous generation of the empire, and the earliest griffin was a rare group land beast. There are hundreds of ten in a community, like a small family. After being captured, and then domesticated and reproduced from generation to generation, it has formed a large base, and it has reached its current scale.
As for domestication, it can be regarded as long-term and short-term. Short-term domestication is to make the flying pet obedient, obey instructions, ride and cooperate with attacks. Long-term domestication is to turn it into domestication, and reproduce offspring in an artificial environment, and ultimately form a certain base.
The former is not easy. Once a beast or a bird of prey is opened, it will be difficult to tame it again, let alone an adult and a certain intelligence. Only by capturing a young beast that has just hatched and has not yet opened his eyes will be brought to the new master at this time, so that it is possible to establish a master-servant relationship similar to family affection and become an air cavalry as well as growing up. This mode is also a mode of recognizing the master. When the master dies, the air cavalry will not be touched by others.
The fully matured air knights can be rotated, but it takes hundreds or even hundreds of years to be possible. Moreover, after taming, the spirit beasts will inevitably show signs of their strength declining, which is far less powerful than the newly tamed spirit beasts.
It is difficult to establish an air riding group, but now there is an opportunity in front of you, that is, the golden eagle in the Panser Rift Valley. This sky overlord can have a wingspan of three feet, and his sharp claws can easily grab an antelope beast weighing thousands of pounds. Even the barbarian bull weighing two or three thousand pounds in the growth period can catch the air, and ride two knights and are fully armed, which is more than enough.
But riding is a raptor. When the Golden-Winged Dapeng becomes an adult, he has the strength of the middle and late stages of the earth beast, but it is completely overwhelmed by the griffin beast. In addition, it is the unique environment of the Panser Rift Valley, which allows the Golden-Winged Dapeng to lay more eggs, and it will lay eggs almost every two or three years. The reproduction speed is definitely one of the best among the Raptors and Earth beasts.
Moreover, according to Shen Lanfeng, in the Panshe Rift Valley, there are not many golden eagles that build nests and lay eggs every year, with dozens of them, and the most of them are hundreds. Most of the young animals produced will fight to die in the growth stage, and only a very small number can grow to adulthood. This is a waste of resources.
The Golden Eagle Cliff is three days away from the Chilong Castle. Here, riding a ride on an air is just looking for death. The entire Panlong Yuan and even the golden eagle in the Chongshan in the north gathered near the Panshe Rift Valley in winter. On the Rift Valley, countless beasts allow them to catch enough food and take it back without scrambling for prey and feeding the young beasts. Almost over the Rift Valley, the golden eagle, which is rare in daily life, can be seen hovering in the air within an hour or two.
"It's coming soon. The golden eagle cliff is in front of it. Almost Panlongyuan and the nearby golden eagle will build nests here. From now on, be careful. Along the way, the number of golden eagles we have encountered is not small, but further forward, we can encounter them anytime and anywhere. Moreover, during the egg laying period, the golden eagle has a strong sense of territory, and any creature close to it will be ruthlessly killed. How alert the golden eagle is and how sharp the eagle is, I don't need me to talk nonsense. Next, let's disperse them, all relying on their own abilities!"
Shen Lanfeng squatted in a crack and said to everyone who was resting. No one had any objections to this, because this had been agreed upon a long time, and those who followed him wanted to take a risk, most of whom were soul general level, and there were also several soul lieutenant-level mercenary-level mercenary-level mercenary-level with hidden soul skills.
"Then I wish you good luck! I will take the lead!" Yang Ye said, hiding directly in the shadow of darkness. Is there any advantage over stealing things?
At the top of the Golden Eagle Cliff, like an umbrella cover, there are a huge convex rock wall. Below the top of the rock top, above the cliffs dozens of feet below, there are caves that are concave into the rock walls. In addition to the caves, there are also a stone platform that can land. There are hundreds of such stone caves and thousands of them.
Many of them were abandoned after their death. In the rift, many of them stood on the stone platform at the entrance of the stone cave, combing their golden feathers, and some flapping their wings and hovering in the rift, or rushing into the sky, rushing into the sky, preparing to hunt.
Although each cave has dozens or hundreds of meters distances, this distance is not worth mentioning at all. What makes people have nowhere to start is that the location where the golden eagle nest is two or three hundred meters below the cliff. It is a difficult time not to disturb the golden eagle and then dive into the cave. Moreover, when the cubs hatched, there were always female golden eagle hatching eggs, and they kept moving away.
This thieving baby beast is not as easy as expected! But it was a little too late to stump me. I should wait for the night to arrive first. I will go out in broad daylight, but I can't escape the eagle's hawkeye!
That guy Shen Lanfeng must know some shortcuts, such as directly leading to the cracks below, otherwise it would be difficult to get close to them, not to mention that they had already stole the cubs, angered the golden eagle, and was chased, and finally had to give up the cubs that had been obtained, so that they could escape. Although two or three years have passed, the shortcut should still be there!
