Chapter 61: Awareness

Just as Ling Qi wanted to find the wound that was only circulated among a few people in Changhu Town, it was said that it was caused by the attack of the city lord of Changhu City and would never heal from Smaug's slender body exposed outside the pile of gold coins.

This dragon, which could even breathe in his sleep, set off a tide of gold coins, suddenly opened his eyes!

In an instant, the entire dusky hall, which was lit by only a few braziers, lit up with a burst of golden light!

Legend has it that the dragon's eyes glow, and the young dragon's eyes are brighter than the Night Pearl, the most luxurious of all in the collection.

And some legendary ancient dragons are even more powerful than the gods, opening their eyes is day, and closing their eyes is night.

Smaug certainly didn't have that power, but its magic might was also monstrous in Middle-earth.

Its eyes are amber, and its pupils are erect prismatic, which is the most standard dragon eye, and they always release a faint light like two large lights in the dark night, just like the legend!

Smaug, who opened his eyes, did not rush to shake his body, but glanced left and right humanely, revealing a trace of cunning and suspicion, pouting his nose and sniffing in the air, smelling the smell that did not exist.

"Well, it's strange how I always feel like a nasty bug has snuck into my treasure trove. ”

Smaug whispered to himself, but the sound had already reverberated through the hall.

Ling Qi dodged behind a broken stone pillar before realizing that such an act was unnecessary.

Smaug was unaware of the visitor who had been detached from the physical world, only the inherently powerful soul that made it restless.

If it were in other planes, the legendary-level could find visitors hiding in the darkness as long as it let the soul power disperse at will, but this is Middle-earth!

Rustle!

Whoa!

The dragon began to wriggle, just like a pit viper, but it was so large that it was terrifying, and a large number of falling gold coins splashed the dreamy golden sand.

Some of the coins have been piling up for too long, and some of them have begun to weather.

This made the treasury look more magnificent, and it also made Smaug's scales and wrinkles covered in gold dust, making it look golden and majestic, as if he were wearing a golden armor.

"Hmm... Is there no one?"

"It won't be an abominable dwarf, it's not a stupid human, it's some kind of elf?"

"Suck ~ Hmm~ What the hell will it be?"

"Come out, bug, I see you!"

β€œ...”

"Hmm~ Is there really no one? I'm the only one talking to myself?"

Probably because he hadn't communicated with the outside world for too long, Smaug's word order was a little out of order, and it was hard to remember the saying of the continental lingua franca.

Only some clumsy tones between the words show that it is different from ordinary people.

The dragon failed to find the source of his displeasure and began to roam the territory again.

It rolled and climbed down the halls, and it couldn't even turn around if it weren't for the sheer size of the treasure house.

It tried to use its massive body to crush the entire treasure house, swallowing its scarlet tongue again and again, and the fierce dragon crystal in its eyes was also overflowing with coldness, but unfortunately, none of this could affect Ling Qi who was still standing in the slightest.

It's so big that it always misses a lot of subtleties when it runs around, and even a person with a slightly nimble leg can avoid its search in time, as long as it doesn't see it.

Little did it know that the fierce expression had destroyed its incomparable natural majesty in its slumber.

It may have a size and strength far beyond its peers, but it is not a real dragon after all, this fire dragon that accidentally broke through the limit and obtained the power comparable to the ancestor, after all, it is just a fierce beast that is only heroic in nature!

It can be powerful, but it can't change its cunning and stubborn nature.

This kind of character, which would bring benefits to it when it was weak, has become an obstacle when it is strong.

The stinginess of the poor is thrift, and the stinginess of the rich will make them lose face.

Ten minutes later, its huge body swept past Ling Qi again. This time, I don't know which part of its body landed first, and a large number of gold coins splashed in the air, flying to the place where Ling Qi was, completely ignoring the figure behind the void, and just crashed into the wall so naturally.

Smaug stopped suspiciously, no longer tossing his treasure.

It grabbed the steps with its dragon claws and crawled back to where it had been.

"Bugs! I know you're here, and though I can't see you or smell you, don't try to steal a single gold coin from under the nose of the great Smaug. ”

"Bugs, hide well, I'll keep an eye on you. ”

Smaug said gloomily, then closed his eyes, and in a moment there was a snoring.

Above the ladder wall against which it was backing, a large number of gold coins suddenly fell, and its body of 8*90 meters long was buried little by little.

Ling Qi came out of hiding, and Smaug suddenly opened his eyes, he tried to stare at the air in front of him, but he still couldn't see anything!

Ling Qi quietly walked away from Smaug, he had already carefully observed just now, there was no too obvious trauma on the surface of the dragon's body, especially the rumored position of the abdomen near the neck.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that it is too large and the wound is too small to be easily detected.

But that didn't make much sense, even if the dragon's wound was found, and it happened that the wound hadn't healed yet, it would be too difficult to use it to hit it hard.

A chain of coincidences can work miracles, and miracles can be repeated when history knows that fate is predestined. But in reality, you can't be so naΓ―ve and really think that future coincidences are inevitable. The dragon is not a creature that forgets the pain of a good scar, and even if it does have a wound like that, it will definitely protect it as well as a scale.

In addition to finding Smaug's weakness in advance, Ling Qi also came here for another purpose, that is, to steal the "Heart of the Mountain" and the Arkon Treasure Diamond!

But there were so many gold coins here that the treasures mixed in the golden sea were like grit, which was completely different from the scene he imagined the valuables piled together, and he had to keep searching.

The dragon didn't care which corner a larger gem would be swept into when it rolled, so it wasn't necessarily right next to Smaug.

After all, it is only a treasure of dwarves, and it will not be more attractive to the dragon than a mountain of gold.

Perhaps Smaug knew the significance of the Akon Diamond, but as long as he wasn't a dwarf, no one would keep it under his nose at all times, or even worship it as a token.

So, the Arkon Gem would appear around any corner, and Ling Qi had to conduct a comprehensive search away from the dragon to avoid some unnecessary mistakes, and besides, he had time.

He believed that Smaug had indeed discovered him, but that it could not catch him, so it would have to get acquainted with him, a visitor who could not do any harm for the time being!

Maybe it can force him out with just a breath of dragon breath outside, but here, does it dare?

Smaug's gaze remained vigilant, sweeping over Ling Qi's location far more often than elsewhere, and it felt the urge to blow there, but it knew that it wouldn't work!

Not every treasure can stand the test of fire, and every treasure is the property of Lord Smaug, and there is no room for loss. At least... Before it loses its mind.

Smaug's sanity had remained longer than Ling Qi had imagined, and after he had spent three full hours searching all the places he could find, Smaug was still staring in the direction he had left.

As he stepped out of the passage on the other side, Smaug's gaze shifted instantly.

"Bugs, you can be silent. But is that what you're looking for?"

Smaug whispered in the direction where Ling Qi was, his voice still loud. At the same time, it flicked its claws slightly, and even though it was cautious, the movement was still too loud, but it also exposed several treasures that looked very special to the air.

There were three of them, scattered in fragments.

They were a purple-gold scepter, a diamond-encrusted crown made of glass, and a sparkling gem the size of a fist!

Heart of the Mountain!

"When you see it, you recognize it at a glance!"

Ling Qi's mind came to mind the drunken nonsense of a certain dwarf!

This gemstone is the size of a goose's egg and has the splendor of a diamond, but it is more dazzling than a diamond. Even in dim environments, it still shines brightly, because it's a dazzling light source!

Its color is dark blue with a hint of purple, but when you look closely, it looks like a rainbow.

This natural gem, named the Heart of the Mountain by the dwarves, has a similar name to the Heart of the Mountain, a special item that Ling Qi once obtained, but the two are completely different from the inside out.

It is also from nature, and the heart of the mountain is a complete set, and it always exudes a strong holy atmosphere. It exudes the taste of the miracle of life from the inside out, and it also contains powerful energy in itself. If they are not removed from the hearts of dying mountain giants in time and properly preserved, they will soon turn into real stone. It is a natural creation, pure beauty.

And the heart of the mountain, it is a jewel and does not have any special powers. But it's beautiful, pure beauty, dazzlingly beautiful, glamorous.

Ling Qi didn't know what this person would choose when the most beautiful woman and the most beautiful gem in the world appeared in front of a human at the same time. But if you are a dwarf, I believe you will not hesitate to choose the Akon Treasure Diamond!

Being able to juxtapose with such a thing, that staff and crown were obviously not ordinary, but Ling Qi didn't observe too much.

He walked slowly, the dragon's gaze moving with his steps. He stopped in a very dangerous and ingenious place, it was a tipping line!

Smaug wouldn't attack him from this distance out of suspicion, but he was confident that it wouldn't allow one, if not yet certain, to come close to it after disturbing its dreams.

"Oh Puppet~Oh Puppet~"

"One hundred feet, the little insect is very confident in himself. ”

"So, what exactly do you want?"

"Legend contains extraordinary magic... The Scepter, or the Elven King's Crown, or... Arkan Diamond!"

Ling Qi didn't hear the name of the scepter, or maybe its name wasn't something that could be summed up in an easy-to-learn and easy-to-understand lingua franca.

He just felt that something had to be done to stop the dragon's sloquing, or he wasn't sure what the other party would do after they thought they had locked his place.

Dragons are arrogant and arrogant, and the latter can cause them to lose their minds prematurely. Now Smaug's tone was changing, and it was clear that he was beginning to identify the existence of some void guest.

If the clone is still there, it's easy to catch the dragon's attention.

Now...
