Vol 12: Chapter 8-2.

Xuan was pointing at a canyon. The canyon was huge enough that even the dragon could enter. Its body would cover half the width of the canyon. Even though it could still turn around but it would definitely get caught in the gravity mine's area of effect.

”This is basically the only suitable place for the gravity mine. Instead of waiting for luck to make it step on it, we can lure it over with some tricks.”

Xuan sighed after he finished talking. Kampa and WangXia didn't feel anything different but it was inconceivable to Zheng that he would sigh.

Zheng patted him on the shoulder and said. ”Are you alright?”

Xuan shook his head. ”Not an issue. Let's get through this crisis first. The risk is too high this time. This bonus mission is obviously more than what we can handle. To be honest, this is much higher than the Scorpion King mission. You were the only one that received a reward for that quest but this one will reward anyone that participated. I think there's only a 30% chance the dragon will step on the mine. So I don't have high hopes.”

Zheng gripped his spear and slapped his hand on Xuan's shoulder. Then he turned to Kampa and WangXia. ”Let's go. No point overthinking it. Do what's in front of us. It's our fate whether we succeed or fail. Go!” Zheng said this determination which surprised the other three. But it also gave them a sense of security.

Kampa laughed and punched Zheng on the shoulder. Even WangXia patted him on the shoulder. Xuan came over and said calmly. ”My shoulder is swollen. No bones are damaged. I will remember this.” He stepped onto the Sky Stick and waited for them to get ready.

Zheng shivered and said in a low voice. ”Don't you feel that he's scary? Never imagined he would hold grudges.”

The Sky Stick lifted up and flew toward the canyon.

Twenty four hours was enough time that they didn't have to rush. They split into two groups with Kampa and WangXia setting up the bombs and mine while Zheng and Xuan monitored the dragon.

This dragon was lazy. It rolled around in soil after finishing the T-Rex then slept on top of a stack of tree branches. They could hear its snore from several kilometers away.

The dragon didn't seem like waking up after the bombs and mine were set. They had a short discussion and decided to test the missiles with this opportunity. Even if the missiles were ineffective, that would lure the dragon over to the canyon. There was no need to wait for it to wake up before attacking.
