Chapter 199: The Creditor and the Gem

"It's something you borrowed, why does the debtor write 'Maureen Callander'?!"

"Who is this bullshit Maureen Calland?!"

Odyssom's ears were on fire, billowing black smoke, and his tense forehead was black and shiny, faintly revealing the lines of dragon scales, as if at any moment he could turn into an angry dragon and burn Ed to ashes with flames.

"That's my apprentice, of course!" said Master Ed, shamelessly.

The old man laughed angrily at Ed's shamelessness, and roared, "Why should you let your apprentice pay back the money you owe?!"

His voice was like thunder, and it spread far away under the starry sky.

The Dragon's Wrath is no joke, especially now the patriarch of the dragon clan of the entire Toddle Continent, except for those sleeping and retiring old guys, the most powerful black dragon on the continent, the roar of Odsom. I saw that the frightened birds in the mountains and forests thousands of miles below were all scattered and flew up and all fell stiffly, and the sleeping animals and even the demonic beasts woke up one after another, crawling on the ground and whispering and wailing, and the midnight silence of the mountains and wilderness was gone.

But Master Ed, who faced the old man's imposing face, seemed to be completely unaffected, with a relaxed and charming smile on his handsome cheeks, and a hint of cunning in his deep dark green eyes.

"Think about it, isn't there a saying among us human beings that we are old, one day is a teacher and a father is a life," he stroked his chin with a pretending to be thoughtful: "What is the old saying?

He spread out one hand with exaggerated eyebrows, looking helpless:

"You see, the things I borrowed will be returned to my apprentice when the time comes, and there is nothing wrong with it. ”

"Bah!, can he afford so many things?!" the old man didn't say a word, and the golden flame was smeared in Ed's face.

"Heh!" Ed casually summoned an ice shield to block the golden flames, and said very dissatisfied: "It's not right for you to say that, it's also my apprentice, and I can't afford to pay it back, of course I know it in my heart, anyway, the tax paid by our card maker is not less than that paid by your big wings of the same level." ”

"Huh?" Odyssom was stunned for a moment, seemed to feel that there was some reason, looked at Ed suspiciously, and asked, "Are you an apprentice in the card making field, but I haven't heard of your apprentice's name, so you're still just a high-level card maker, right?"

"Ahem, I won't tell you......" Ed could keep a charming smile on his face even when he spoke, "To tell you the truth, the apprentice just enrolled last year, and now he can barely be regarded as an apprentice who has entered the card-making industry......"

"With some time, he should be able to craft all kinds of first-order magic cards......"

"Give it back!!" Odyssom finally blew up.

He slapped out his right palm, turning into an incomparably huge black dragon claw and fanning towards Ed like a skyscraper, the black dragon scales were as strong as steel, and the sharp claws were like the scythe of death, not to mention ordinary humans, even a rebellious steel rock horn peak would be smashed under this palm.

"Oh, my apprentice can't do it now, but he has potential—" Ed said without changing his face, and before he could finish speaking, he was frothed into a bubble by the huge, sharp dragon claws—his figure dissipated into the night like a bubble, leaving no trace.

It's empty, as if it never existed.

The old man roared, it was no longer a human voice, and the roar of the rolling dragon shook the four wilds.

He looked around, but despite the bright moonlight, he could no longer see the figure with the huge package on his back, and he didn't know where he had gone.

"Ed thief!" the old man scolded fiercely.

Immediately, he was heartbroken to find that two of the strips of cloth he was holding in his left hand had been accidentally scorched by his own flames, and he hurriedly packed the remaining IOUs and kept them with hatred.

"Maureen Callander is it......"

"If you dare to repay your debts like your teacher, I will let you taste the lava lake......"

The old man snorted lightly, and two wisps of black smoke came out of his nose.

The huge winged shadow spread out behind him again, and in the direction he had been chasing, he disappeared into the night.

If Morin, who was kidnapped by the blue-skinned bear at this time, had known that the IOUs that his cheap teacher had left with others were written in his name, he would have found him a bunch of greedy dragons as creditors without his knowledge, and owed a debt that he would not be able to pay off in his life, and I wonder if he would vomit three liters of blood on the bear's back and die on the spot.

Or kill yourself by biting your tongue in grief......

I don't know how far away, in the valley of Iluvita, Ed, who was carrying countless stolen goods, once again showed his figure.

"Huh, it's so dangerous, I'm almost going to stop the old dragon, I didn't expect him to come back so early, I really don't have the spirit of a scholar. Ed looked at the tiny crack on a light blue magic card in his hand with some heartache, and muttered: "It's a pity that this [Sky Mirror] is a pity, and I don't know if I still have time to repair it......"

But feeling the heavy treasure in his pocket, he showed a triumphant smile again:

"But it's worth it, I didn't expect that I haven't been shopping for decades, and those old guys can save so many treasures, so it took me a long time to pick and choose, hehe, my nightcrawler Ed never returns empty-handed. ”

"No, this time is too tight, there are a lot of good things left, and I have to go around next time I have a chance......

Humming a little tune again, Ed slowly descended towards the Magic Tower.

The old dragon would never chase after Iluvita, he had a holiday with the dean of Fielding who slammed the door, it seems that he fought a long time ago to grab the treasure or something, and he was afraid that he would not even let him enter the door when he came.

"A wave in a wave...... I'm so happy to have a lot of treasures......"

"-Professor Ed!" was Mike's voice.

"Professor Ed!!" said Aeno's voice.

"Hmm, what's going on?" Ed casually threw the heavy loot into the magic tower, and walked down in front of the tower to look at the two students with an anxious look: "Isn't today winter vacation, today's day...... It's supposed to be a ghost story contest, ......right? Your ghost story contest is a mess?!

It sounds like Ed is also a member of this path, and he is estimated to be a hardcore member of the Troublemakers League when he was in school.

"No, Merlin has been kidnapped by a bear!" said Aeno anxiously.

"Poof-" Ed smiled rudely for the first time tonight, "What? Say it again?"

"Morin was kidnapped by a little blue bear!! Rushing to the outside of the academy!" Equino really wanted to pull off Morin's teacher's ears at this time: "Your apprentice was kidnapped by a strange bear!! he said that he would turn into bear dung if he was too late!"

"Imagination......" Ed struggled to stop laughing.

"Professor, what Aeno said is true, we found a serious enchantment loophole, which was activated to get the attention of the elves to fix it, maybe the monster came from outside the border at that time. Mike said.

"That's right...... The blue bear, is it the legendary violent bear, the legendary violent bear......" Ed muttered to himself, glanced at the two pale students, and said casually:

"Okay, I'll take a look, you wait for me here. ”

With that, he leapt into the night sky.

"Take me, Professor!" Exiled Aeno.

"Don't join in the fun, maybe there will be danger-"

"I have pentagram runes, and I know which direction Merlin is!

The little vampire waved his wrist, and a lilac pentagram mark shone brightly, although the sense of Morin became blurred for some reason at this moment, perhaps due to the influence of the strange bear, but the general direction must be recognizable.

So Ed rolled up Eminor with his backhand, took a light step, and the figures of the two appeared on the distant ridge, and with one more step, they completely disappeared from view.

……

Marcus was trying to dive deeper.

The water was not cold, but it was stressful, and he felt as if his eyes and eardrums had been pressed into his head, like a mess of mud and pain, but he still gritted his teeth and swam deeper, trying to keep his eyes open, and looked at the aquatic plants and sand at the bottom of the lake by following the light technique around him.

Unlike on the shore, the flow of magic has a dull and sluggish effect, and it takes much more effort to achieve the same spell effect, and the light of the light spell can only shine a short distance.

If the mental strength can penetrate the lake, it will be easy to get them back with magic on the shore.

Marcus felt something hit his body.

He spat out the bubbles and realized that it was just a small grouper.

He took a breath from the air mass on his cheek and exhaled another bunch of bubbles, which gurgled toward the surface of the lake. The light of the moon god could no longer illuminate his depth, and the dark waters of the lake only shone with the light of his magic, like a lone lamp in the night.

Fortunately, the water spots of those guys are all in the same position, and it is not too far from the shore, the bottom of the lake is relatively gentle here, and the water is not too deep, otherwise he may not be able to dive to the bottom of the lake with his strength.

Sure enough, I swam along the bottom of the gravel lake to the spot where I remembered them falling into the water, and I saw the four guys who had sunk at the bottom of the lake, lying motionless on the mud and sand, their eyes closed. However, there didn't seem to be any obvious injuries, and their bodies still exuded magical fluctuations, proving that these guys were still alive.

Marcus breathed a sigh of relief and spat out two bubbles.

After all, they are all professionals who have been exposed to the sea of magic, and they can still rely on magic to support themselves after holding their breath for a short time, so I don't know if they have suffered any internal injuries, and the slap of that strange bear feels terrible to think about.

Although it has the buoyancy of water, it took a lot of effort to get the four guys together.

Magic like light feathering in the water was completely useless, Marcus spit bubbles while tying the four people together with his clothes, and then pushed them to swim towards the shore of the lake, fortunately, after such a long time of magic soaked in his body, the strength of his body was much better than before, and under the push and pull, he finally got the four fainted guys ashore.

As soon as the cold wind blew on the winter night, Marcas sneezed vigorously and hurriedly put on his clothes.

In the distance, it seems that a senior is coming this way.

Looking at the four people whose breath was weak but not bad, Marcus sneered.

He walked up to them and stomped on Cleo and Seman, as well as Levin's face, "Let you have many things and be punished...... Hum...... I'll step on me, step on you, ......"

With a comfortable smile on his lips, he looked at his brother Fawkes, who had passed out.

After two foot gestures, this time Marcas did not dare to step on it, but made a very vicious gesture in front of his brother's closed eyelids, and then snickered and grabbed a handful of sand and stuffed it into Fawkes's collar.

Before the senior seniors arrived, Marcus straightened his clothes and rushed into the forest.

It was supposed that they should have been sent to the Tree of Life to be healed by Lady Sinis, but since the senior students came, he was too lazy to do such a thankless task, and it was not his turn to do it according to the speed.

Marcus remembered what Aeno had said earlier – if he had time, he would go to the professor who lived in the forest for help.

He ran out of breath to a familiar treehouse.

"Knock knock, knock knock!"

He knocked on the door of Professor Honorom's office in a hurry, but rhythmically.

"Teach, Professor!" Looking at the Ranger Professor dressed in pajamas, Marcus didn't bother to apologize, and hurriedly picked out the wording and said: "A high-level demonic beast just appeared on the shore of the lake, it is a blue-skinned bear, and it has taken Merlin as food! Professor, go and save him, maybe Merlin will turn into bear dung if it's too late!"

"Huh?" Honorom's deep, vicissitudes of pale blue eyes were dyed a dull gray by the moonlight.

He glanced at Marcas, and somehow believed him, and the next moment he had changed his clothes and reappeared in the doorway, staring into the distance, his gaze through the shadows of the verdant forest and the specks of snow, and he quietly walked away.

"I have pentagram runes—" Marcus shouted, remembering the communication runes on his wrist as well.

"No, I see the traces left by that beast......"

……

Maureen was woken up by licking.

Thinking that the other party was hungry and ready to start for a supper, he was so frightened that he didn't care about wiping the disgusting bear on his face, and retreated to a corner where there was no way to retreat, holding the branch wand in his hand and waving the waw wow scream, trying to scare the other party away.

"Uncle Xiong, don't come here! Do you know what this is! This is the Elemental Emperor's cane!

"If you dare to come here, I'll hit you with this!"

"I'm afraid you won't be able to parry my stick!"

I don't know when this monster turned into the size of a bear again, but it couldn't alleviate the sense of oppression it brought to the boy.

As soon as he thought that this guy was the monster that crossed the line of the earth, the guy who could set off a snowstorm with a roar, Morin felt that tonight was going to be more auspicious, and he wanted to scold those adventurers in Bellamy's town one by one.

Who said this guy left?!

You adventurers, these stalking hunters, are too amateurish?!

And also crossed the line of the earth, this guy looks much more powerful than Minelma.

Whether it is facing the sixth-grade senior Fox or facing the adventurers who are not low in the two ranks just now, they are all a slap in the air, without the slightest smell of fireworks. If he had known that this unremarkable bear was the big guy when he was on the shore of the lake, Morin would have jumped into the lake on his own initiative.

Looking at the two shiny brown-black eyes, the boy choked his throat.

He used his staff as a stick and put on a posture of sworn resistance.

The surroundings were pitch black, he recognized that this should be a cave, and used his spiritual perception to spread out and explore, but he didn't find anything like white bone corpses, which made him relax a little, but it could also be that this fellow eats without spitting out bones, and it is no problem to swallow a calf with its strength and size.

I don't know if I can live in this guy's belly for a while if I am swallowed raw......

Merlin noticed that the bear seemed to raise his right palm.

"Uncle Xiong, don't come here!" he exclaimed, and in a fit of nervousness, he grabbed something out of his arms and threw it over.

"Squeak ——!!" screamed, and it turned out to be the jerboa just now.

Probably because the boy was too nervous when he was pretending to be dead by the lake, he easily put the dreaded jerboa on the side into his pocket.

But apparently the fat mouse had no deterrent power, and the bear didn't even slap it, and the jerboa fell to the ground and ran out of the burrow, screaming and throwing his legs, not knowing if he would hit something again in a panic.

"Chirp!" The inspired boy threw the black fire out again.

I hope that Xiao Hei can escape smoothly, and maybe he can bring in effective rescuers.

But Blackfire was treated a completely different way.

It seemed that he had never seen this kind of creature before, the violent bear was frightened and took a step back, and the timid black fire had certainly never seen the blue-skinned monster bear, and for a while he was floating in the air and hesitated, his small green eyes staring at the big brown and black eyes.

Fortunately, there was a teenager behind him to cheer it on, and it cautiously floated forward for some distance.

Then Storm Bear took another cautious step back.

It floated forward a little further, and the bear took another step back.

Float a little more, take a step back.

I didn't expect this big guy to be afraid of himself, and Xiao Hei, who was greatly encouraged, was really happy, and his courage exploded instantly, while making a grimace and spitting flames, he summoned two doppelganger-like shadows with his shadow technique, and rushed towards the stupid bear with a fierce momentum, completely ignoring the boy's command to take the opportunity to slip away.

— and then, unsurprisingly, it was slapped in the face.

"Hah...... Ha ......" Mo Lin watched speechlessly as the black fire that was scattered fled back to the ring marks, and he didn't even have the strength to reorganize his body, and the great opportunity to escape for help was wasted like this, I really don't know whether to laugh or cry.

And after Morin threw two cute and stupid useless killing weapons one after another, the little bear also found something out of nowhere, and with a wave of the bear's claws, it threw it over, rolling to the boy's feet.

It was a beautiful dark green gemstone.
