Chapter 20: The Land of Dragons

There was a terrible silence swirling around the arena, like an invisible monster, swallowing up all the small words, silent silence. The candle flame flowed out of the gold liquid of the berth, pouring all over the stone slab, like fine wine, overflowing with brilliance.

Fang Yu lowered his head, his fine hair hanging down from the boy's forehead, reflecting the staggered light, and swept his hand lightly on the gold shell, with a soft sound, the dial was rotated inward under the gilt blades closed.

He stopped glancing at the immortal worm, turned around and flicked his robe, and walked towards the end.

Tianlan screamed, ran over and hugged him and screamed, "God, Brother Ed, you did it!" How did you do it, it's amazing, just like that! ”

This made Fang Yu so nervous that he hurriedly shushed and winked at her.

Tianlan stuck out her tongue embarrassedly, looked carefully left and right, and then whispered, "Char...... It's Char, I know. ”

Luo Yu, Hu Di, and Ettila met them, followed by the diminutive Kita and the Paparal crossbowman. Attila glared at Azure and immediately told the latter to be honest.

Fang Yu stuck his hand on the latches on the left and right sides of the gimbal instrument, pressed it down and clicked the gloves back, picked them up and handed them back to Luo Yu: "Thank you." ”

But Luo Yu shook his head: "It's useless to me, I'll give it to you." ”

Fang Yu paused for a moment, looked at the other party with his gloves, and suddenly understood something: "You want to become a combat craftsman?" ”

A deep light flashed in the boy's eyes.

Fang Yu was surprised, suddenly withdrew his gloves, and smiled toothily: "I'll help you." ”

Luo Yu looked at him in surprise.

"But it's up to you."

"I ...... Naturally, Luo Yu was a little cramped, and Fang Yu's previous performance left a deep impression on him: "Mr. Ed, are you a member of the Elite youth team?" ”

Fang Yu shook his head and replied in a somewhat proud tone, "I am alone. ”

This made Luo Yu a little surprised, he thought that the other party would be a member of the Great Guild at this level. The Elite is the second-ranked guild in the country, and it is also one of the major guilds with the closest influence to Rainbow Bay outside of the Silver Forest Spear, and it is natural for him to think that Fang Ou will be a member of the reserve youth team of the Elite Brigade.

But not only that, but the other party is still a lone wolf.

"Your name was Ed?" Hu Di asked in surprise at this time.

"Shhhh ”

"We?" Fang Yu looked at Tianlan strangely.

"The two bastards of the Silver Forest Spear hit Tata and didn't apologize, so we made a feud." The little French girl replied with her hands on her hips.

Is it really okay to make a feud so easily? The spear of the silver forest is also a behemoth, Hu Di was also startled, and his voice was naturally quieter: "Ed, should you be ......?" ”

Luo Yu also thought of something, and suddenly interrupted: "Don't say-" Hu Di realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly closed his mouth.

Only Tianlan was left looking at the two strangely: "What dumb riddle are you guys playing?" ”

Fang Plover was also confused.

Only Attila looked at the two of them and said softly, "Let's go back first." The elven girl gestured around with her eyes, and the entire silent arena was reviving, and the whispering voices were converging into a torrent.

And people's eyes focused on Fang Yu one by one.

Fang Yu was also taken aback.

Only the immortal worms remained abrupt on the field.

It wasn't until the referee came over and asked him to leave that the other party seemed to grasp the life-saving straw, and howled with a fat face: "I don't accept it, he cheats...... Mr. Referee, how can a construct be so flexible? ”

"And ...... It...... How could it be on the spear, the construct couldn't rebalance itself in that situation, that guy must have used some means other than the game, I ask for a rematch! ”

The dwarf referee glanced at the fat man with some disdain, and replied coldly, "Who told you that it was a state of self-equilibrium?" ”

The fat man was stunned for a moment.

"That's manual compensating balancing, you just need to add two more axes."

"But Mr. Referee," at this time, a voice also came from outside the field, and everyone looked back, only to find that it was the woman who had been playing well in the game, the Blood Night Demon Moon, only to see her ask: "Every time an additional manipulation axis is added, the amount of manipulation will be multiplied." ”

"So that's all it takes."

With a flick of the gloved right hand of the gnome referee, three clockwork goblins flew out from behind him, buzzing around him. The little man turned to look at the immortal worm again: "Flexible construction, in fact, you don't even understand the basic meaning of the word - go down, you lose in either way." ”

"It can't be...... That's impossible. ”

"That guy, he calculates my ......"

The immortal worm muttered to itself with a face like ashes.

And there was already an uproar off the field.

At this time, Zhang Tianmu was walking to the sidelines, the communicator in his hand was lit up, and a line of text on the window made him frown:

'Fox: Captain, the target is detached from us. ’

The fox was the code name of his deputy, and he frowned, lowered his voice and typed in his voice: "Directions? ”

'Fox: Our men saw him go to the south corridor, but the ambushers found no trace of him...... It was as if he had vanished into thin air. ’

Zhang Tianmu sighed: "Wait for me to come." He was about to leave, when suddenly there was a burst of exclamations from the distance; He paused for a moment, looked in that direction, and vaguely heard exclamations such as 'balance compensation' and 'precise three controls'.

The crowd was parting, and a small group of people walked out, and Zhang Tianmu only had time to see the familiar silver mask, and in an instant, he was drowned in the crowd.

He shook his head, thinking to himself that the game was really lively, and hurried south without looking back.

The gnome referee was leading the way in front of the group with his pointed beard: "Congratulations, Mr. Char - please come with me, the prize ceremony for the qualifiers is ready." ”

And Fang Yu was absent-minded, looking at the crowd around him in a cold sweat.

Attila looked at him a little funny: "Don't worry, the people of the Spear of the Silver Forest are no longer here." ”

"Except for those two bad guys." Sky Blue added.

"Those two scoundrels?" Fang Yu didn't know that Wu Di was a contestant in the main competition.

However, he looked around and saw no figures in the black coats, and the military seemed to have left the hall, which more or less reassured him.

"Since you're so worried, why did Brother Ed make such a big splash in the end?" Kita asked in a whisper from behind.

This question made Fang Yu scratch his head.

He was embarrassed to answer because his brain was hot, and it wasn't because the dead fat man had an abominable face. And he didn't expect the other party to be so unbeaten, worse than the eldest sister's head.

"It's all because he's too weak." Fang Yu was very embarrassed, so he decided to dump the pot.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw him like this.

"Actually, it doesn't matter," he reassured himself, "...... Anyway, I just want to play the qualifiers, and when we get the prize and get the prize money, we will leave this place, and it won't attract any attention. ”

Kita opened her mouth when she heard this, but she didn't dare to say it in the end.

It was the Paparal crossbowman who squeezed up from behind and stretched out a chubby little hand to the square plover: "Hello, my name is Parker, and you saved my life, respected Mr. Combat Craftsmanβ€”"

Tianlan looked at the little chubby dun in surprise, wondering when this guy had become so polite.

"I mean, you wouldn't mind saving my life and letting a hungry, poor, weak, and helpless Paparal, share your supper," he continued. ”

Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, but still shook hands with the other party, and asked curiously: "Your name is Parker, right, I heard that Paparals eat seven meals a day - you didn't miss the meal, right?" Ah, I forgot that you were the Choker! ”

Tears immediately glistened in the eyes of the Paparal crossbowman's black bean-like eyes.

He was full of hope that he had finally met someone who cared about whether the Paparals had eaten or not, so in his mind, Fang Ou's status was immediately much higher than that of the demonic Sky Blue.

"No, no," Parker shook his head like a rattle, "not offensive at all, though I am the Chosen One, but the natural nature of the Paparals dictates that if we don't eat for three hours, we will have no strength." ”

"Isn't it starvation?" Kita asked in a whisper.

"The starvation setting has a loophole when you hear it," Chubby replied in a low voice, "so I changed it a bit to make it more rigorous." ”

"I found it for him." Sky blue table gongdao.

Attila listened to the conversation between these people, and could only shake her head helplessly.

"Can this be changed?" Fang Yu was also surprised, but he still nodded to the other party kindly: "Of course I don't mind, in fact, I have already eaten." ”

"Great!" The Paparal crossbowman jumped up with joy: "You're the Paparal's best friend from today onwards, I'll invite you to dinner, okay?" ”

"It was supposed to be Ed's dinner." Azure corrected him with an eyebrow.

Fang Yu was listening to a few people arguing, he actually thought it was quite interesting, everyone used to raise the bar with Miss Scarpe, until the latter couldn't help but use violence-

But it was at this time that a thick voice came from the side: "...... Ever heard the screams of dragons, young man? ”

Fang Yu stopped abruptly and turned his head suddenly.

He saw a tall man standing aside, looking at him with a dark gaze.

The other party is like a majestic mountain, the skin is bronzed, and the arms and cheeks are painted with patterns, and the strange texture extends on the strong and tight muscles, with an oppressive force that is not angry and self-threatening.

The crowd now recognized this manβ€”

The owner of the inn here.

"Your Excellency is ......?" Fang Yu asked in a low voice.

"Have you ever heard the dragon's scream, young man," Mazak asked, looking at him, still asking, "...... Behind the deep darkness, dragons flailed their wings, and in the eyes of the dead and the living, behind that kingdom, they would one day return......

His voice was faint, thick, and impressive.

Fang Yu faintly felt that the back of his hand was a little hot again, and he blocked it without a trace, feeling a little strange in his heart. But suddenly, there was an indescribable throbbing in my heart, and I couldn't help but hold my heart with my hand.

Bang, bang, bang.

The heart was beating vigorously.

Everything around seemed to go into a trance, as if something was approaching, the behemoth screaming and flying around itself, sometimes far away, sometimes near.

Only an anxious voice was calling out to him, "Ed, Ed? ”

Fang Yu gradually came to his senses, and the illusion around him disappeared, and he saw Attila looking at him with concern, her emerald green eyes full of deep worry.

He looked around, and everyone was dignified.

On the side, Hu Di still looked at him a little nervously: "Ed, why didn't you answer Mazak's question before, if he gets angry, we will be finished." ”

"Cut, he's a little olderβ€”" Only Sky Blue didn't care.

Fang Yu paused for a moment, only to realize that Mazak was no longer here, "When did he leave?" He couldn't help but feel dazed.

The old dwarf on the side shook his head and comforted them: "Don't worry, the master here is like this, the gods are chattering." But he's actually good-tempered, and if you've been here for a long time, you'll find that he's a weirdo to get along with. ”

"Weirdos?" Fang Yu was faintly strange.

He always felt that this inn had some connection to the crown mark on the back of his hand, especially this hallβ€”

He couldn't help but look up at the huge dragon horns hanging from the dome, and in the smoke, the dragon horns seemed to be more vivid. Looking at the dragon's horned plover there was a lingering illusion that something was staring at him from behind the shadows.

The feeling sent him shuddering.

He whispered, "By the way, do you know the origin of this dragon horn?" ”

The gnome referee shook his head and said in a nonchalant tone, "Who knows, it's been here since the day this inn existed." Maybe it has something to do with Westminer, you know the mysterious legends, but you'll have to ask the Archon of the previous generation of Elpahim about it. ”

"Why?"

"Because he approved the establishment of this inn."

"What's Westminster's place?" Parker whispered to Kita on the side.

"It is the homeland of the dragon slayer, in the Istanian desert in the central region of the kingdom of Kaulin." Kita replied.

But the gnome did not want to waste time on this topic, and turned back to the topic: "Let's go, Mr. Craftsman." ”

Although Fang Yu still had doubts in his heart, he could only nod.

Not far away, Mazak silently watched the group leave.

Behind him, a faint shadow came out of the darkness, and the candle flame outlined an old face, and the old man looked at Mazak with a respectful look in his silver-gray eyes.

Mazak didn't look back: "Are you ready, Shayek?" ”

The old man nodded and said, "It couldn't be more thoughtful, it's just ......"

The former's steady gaze passed through the crowd, through several dwarven guards, and landed on the stone platform. He looked at it for a moment before asking, "Justβ€”β€”? ”

"Those people from the Spear of the Silver Forest have been waiting for you in the reception room for a long time."

"Leave them alone," replied Mazak, "let them stay a little longer, they're just vultures waiting for a feastβ€”by the way, have you ever seen a vulture in the desert, Shayak?" ”

The old man paused for a moment and shook his head: "It's been a long time." ”

"Me too," the towering man sighed, "Itania seems to me to have become an abstract symbol, and I still remember the silvery sea of sand there, and the things of my youthβ€”"

The old man shuddered slightly, glanced at the innkeeper with an inexplicable gaze, and then buried his head deeply.

Mazak will tuck it to his chest.

The palm of the hand responded with a powerful pulsating sound, but in the depths of that sound, there seemed to contain a trace of strange factors.
