Chapter Forty-Eight: The Curtain Rises

early morning

The Holy City of the Enchanted Ridge,

A corner of the Evening Light Tavern,

Three young men, dressed in adventurer's attire, were sitting in the newly opened tavern chatting.

"What the hell is the matter with Sarina, let us wait for him here early in the morning!"

The handsome-looking priest Bunian yawned and propped his head in one hand,

At this time, he said weakly.

"Tell me, Bunian, did you go to the 'Red Cherry Tavern' again last night?"

Sitting opposite, the thief Lucius, who was dressed in a black suit, looked at Bunian opposite with a mocking look and smiled.

"Didn't you go yesterday?"

"There's just a group of girls there, all of them are tender and juicy, and their breasts are fierce!"

"Lucius, it's a shame you didn't go!"

Bunian immediately said with a slight exaggeration, and gave Lucius a regretful look like an old driver.

"Really?"

"Why didn't I get the news!"

"Bunian, are you lying to me..."

At this moment, Lucius's suspicious voice did not fall, and a female voice immediately came from the direction of the tavern door.

"What a fierce chest... What a pity, isn't it a good task again? ”

Sarina, dressed in black robes, asked as soon as she walked into the tavern.

"No... That's right, we're debating whether or not to find some difficult adventure missions for Bunian to practice, and he says he's been bored lately. ”

Lucius said with a sneer.

"That's right, it's just to give us the whole 'Black Clover' practice!"

Bunian answered immediately.

"That's it!"

"Shut up, both of you!"

"Sarina, you let us here so early?"

At this time, the black-haired man sitting next to him interrupted the awkward conversation between the two teammates, and turned to ask the newly arrived magician Sarina.

"Captain Leon, didn't you ask me to help you check the news of the Snow Frost Ramp and the original batch of goblins some time ago?"

"That's right!"

"What, is there any news?"

Li Ang hurriedly asked.

"Of course, my friend told me,"

"Recently, a large number of flame goblins have appeared in the Dissolving Forest, and the number is at least more than a hundred!"

"I wonder if it's possible, it has something to do with the Captain you were thinking about the Fire Goblin Clan from ten years ago."

"After all, in the face of the constant hunting of our adventurers, it is not easy for a large-scale goblin race to be born, let alone a flame goblin."

After Sarina finished speaking, she looked at the black-haired captain with some silence and didn't know what she was thinking.

The other two also clearly sensed that something was wrong with the captain, and they didn't make a sound, but waited quietly.

They all knew that their captain's obsession with that group of flame goblins had lasted for too long.

"Sarina, thank you for being a goblin or not!"

Soon, Leon came to his senses and thanked Sarina sincerely.

"If this news is reliable, then it is really possible that the group of goblins in the Dissolving Forest migrated from the Snow and Frost Slope ten years ago, after all, the distance between the two large forests is not too far!"

"It's just a large forest as inaccessible as the Dissolving Forest, and if it weren't for the power of the Adventurer's Guild, it would really not be easy to find that group of flame goblins!"

"Thank you so much, Sarina!"

"If you can successfully kill that large group of goblins this time, I will definitely invite you to go to the 'City of Joy' in the Sacred Heaven of the Royal Capital for a while!"

Li Ang finished speaking in a deep voice, and finally smiled.

"Captain, of course I believe in your promise!"

"It's just like Sarina said, that's at least a hundred flame goblins, or in a big forest like the Dissolving Forest!"

"It's not a big deal to kill them all!"

"Captain, you have to know what to expect!"

At this time, the thief Lucius suddenly frowned and said loudly.

"I know that it will be difficult to eliminate it with the strength of our team."

"So, I'm going to go directly to the Adventure Guild and issue a bounty mission to exterminate those goblins!"

"But before I do that, I'm going to go to the Dissolving Forest once and confirm that I'm talking!"

Li Ang nodded, and then said.

"Captain, do you want us to accompany you?"

Bunian spoke.

"No, just go around in a circle, those monsters can't keep me!"

Leon smiled and waved his hand.

"Captain, if you insist on going alone, then you might as well go with the other adventurers."

"It just so happens that I know, the Adventure Guild has a team going to the Dissolving Forest today!"

Sarina's face was slightly anxious, and she hurriedly said.

"Sarina, this team shouldn't have been specially found by you for the captain, right?"

At this time, Bunian suddenly laughed maliciously.

"That's it, how can it be such a coincidence, you must know that there are not many adventurous teams that usually go to the dissolving forest."

Lucius also agreed.

Sarina is interesting to her captain Leon, and the other two can naturally feel it.

"No, it's just that the Adventure Guild party is going to the Dissolving Forest on an errand, and my friend told me it would be safer to go with the party."

Sarina explained with a blushing face.

"Alright, don't bully Sarina, I'm also going to go with the team of the Adventure Guild!"

"Sarina, take me to the Adventure Guild now!"

"As for the two of you, stay where you go!"

Leon waved his hand and walked out of the Evening Light Tavern with Sarina,

Feed the remaining two people a mouthful of dog food!

......

Enchanted Ridge,

Adventurer's Guild Chapter Headquarters Building, in the conference room on the highest floor.

A middle-aged man with a resolute face and a black robe and windbreaker stood in front of the conference table, looked at the four teammates in front of him, and said in a deep voice:

"Recently, a second-level mercenary team found a 'dragon' in the Dissolution Forest, I've heard about it!"

"Well, I did hear that"

"It seems to be a four-person adventure team called the 'Ju Bang Brigade', and I saw it with my own eyes."

"I just couldn't find a few members of that team!"

John, the half-elf, said with some confusion.

Several others said they had heard about it.

"Don't look for it, it's true!"

"Because all the members of this team have been detained by me at the headquarters!"

The man in the robe and trench coat spoke again, and directly stopped the few people present.

"That's... So what they say about 'dragons' is true? ”

The magician Susia reacted immediately and spoke.

"Of course, it's still a blue dragon!"

"I'm afraid it's the one that made the noise ten years ago!"

"Only now, that dragon is much bigger than it was back then!"

The middle-aged man continued, but there was some regret in his words!

"Wasn't that one ten years ago, that dragon hiding in the Dissolving Forest for ten years?"

"That's not necessarily, maybe I went somewhere else and returned to our magic ridge!"

"What are you going to do, Captain?"

"I've sent someone to dissolve the forest to confirm this!"

"But before we can confirm it, we have to make sure that this news does not continue to spread in the Holy City!"

"So as not to cause a sensation!"

"The city lord has already greeted me!"
