All the way through the journey, Dress was full of the tune, why did the good tavern music mention the words "war", "fire" and "burning"?

He began to regret that he had taken too much time off from his class on Ancient Literature and Old Customs, and if he had been as knowledgeable as the scholars of the Silver Candle Society, he might have understood the story behind the piece.

Well, it seems that this is too absolute, after all, the two Evan brothers didn't react to it either. Well... Maybe the Imperials are hiding something from us? He thought it was possible, the two brothers from Morning Star didn't talk much along the way, and they had a particularly bad attitude towards the people of the Elemental Tower, and they didn't have the demeanor of scholars at all.

The explosion in Morning Star City half a year ago caused a lot of uproar, and Principal William's sons died in it. Later, the Morningstar royal family said that this was a conspiracy of the Elemental Tower, and called on the other two empires to resist and investigate together.

Deres felt that this was simply nonsense, this kind of ugly thing happened to the Morning Star Empire, which regarded itself as the center of human civilization, and instead of reflecting on itself at the first time, he was busy blaming mistakes, this kind of performance was really disappointing, and it didn't have the courage of an empire at all. If the Elemental Tower really wants to do it, shouldn't Jialan and Turing be more valuable than the dying Morning Star?

But then again, the people in the academy who came back alive from the Thorn Flower Challenge claimed that there were necromancy spells with more than seven rings in that match, which may have been the direct cause of the operation.

As for the "root cause", who knows, the two empires have sent people, but Morning Star does not, to say that there is no catty and game in it, he doesn't believe it at all.

Thinking of this, Deres couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly: When is this coming, you still have the time to meddle in your affairs, or think about your high tuition fees. When the Thorn Flower Challenge was auditioned in Jialan, he happened to be carrying out the commission, otherwise he would have tried it for "the winner can go to the Morning Star to participate in the finals", and he heard that everyone in the empire is stupid and has a lot of money, and he is notoriously cheating, so he would have wanted to go for a long time.

Now it seems like a blessing in disguise?

Before he knew it, Deres came to the foot of the mountain next to the White Rock Mine, and he was surprised to find that the ground was covered with a new layer of soil.

It's not quite right to say that it is new soil, the particles of soil are not so large.

During his career as a mercenary, Deres came into contact with an old miner who had a lot of experience from the other party's mouth at the cost of a glass of dark beer - in fact, he wanted to ask about the gold rush. The other party joked with him that if he knew how to pan for gold, how could he be so depressed that he couldn't even afford to drink dark beer, and after dispelling the idea, he told him some tips for identifying ores, and with this experience, he could see at a glance that the sand and gravel at the foot of the mountain were mixed with hornhole.

Most of this kind of stone is in the high mountains, belongs to a kind of shale, loose, easy to sand, the higher the content, the richer the content, the ordinary rock can not withstand the erosion of wind, sand, rain and snow, and will eventually become this kind of hornhole.

After confirming that there was no one around, he went up to check it carefully, and found that there was a lot of sand and gravel scattered here, and the closer he got to the foot of the mountain, the higher it was piled up.

Was there a battle on the mountain?

This was the first thing that came to mind, but it is also possible that the crust was peeled off by strong winds. After all, the Myeshua Master had an extremely keen sense, and she didn't show anything unusual.

He looked up and saw a lump protruding from the mountainside, covered with a layer of snow, blocking his view.

After thinking about it for a while, Deres decided to go up and take a look, he felt that with the strength of those two elves, it would not be difficult to find valuable information from the White Rock Mine, and if he didn't gain anything, it would look very embarrassing.

Maybe it will affect the commission you get in the end, he thought. The sponsor of this event is Kane's Horn, not Jialan's school, and that group of shrewd businessmen catch a fly and take it to refine medicine, what if they use this excuse to deduct commissions? He was hired and was not of the same nature as the alumni who went out for the autumn outing......

But what if there is really danger on it?

Thinking of this, Deres began to hesitate again, standing in the steep mountain wind, he felt his face be blown painfully, and the scarf around his neck was also hunting.

Well? Scarf?

He suddenly had a great idea. A half-breed cat man from the Kadra Heights told him that the strong winds on the plateau can make people fly, like flying a kite.

He opened his magic package, and the space inside was magnified tenfold, which was specially purchased for this operation, although it was not as good as the space ring, but it was enough.

He took out a signal flare from inside, tied it with a cowhide band, the rubber band was nailed to the ground, next to it was a windproof pile surrounded by wolf dung wax, and a fire was lit inside, if he didn't come down after an hour, the wolf dung wax would be melted, and the tongue of fire that came out licked off the cowhide band next to it, and released a signal flare.

After finishing his work, looking at his masterpiece, Deres snapped his fingers in satisfaction, "I'm such a genius!" ”

If you have 200 gold coins to buy a delayed flare, you don't have to be so stupid, as if there is a voice in your heart teasing you like this.

The poor boy's smile froze on his face, he pouted, strung a few old clothes with thin ropes, made a parachute that he didn't know if it was reliable, gritted his teeth and rushed up the mountain.

----------------

Smaug boredomed counting sharks in the cave, counting from one to fifteen, and then reversing dozens of times before discovering a fact.

He was hungry.

It's not that you're really hungry, but because you're bored, you're hungry, and once you're free, you always have to find something to do, such as eating. Dragons were no exception, but Smaug couldn't remember what he had been doing when he was bored.

"Why didn't Mu Yan let me eat those dead fatty fish? They've all been... Belch... Floated. ”

He couldn't figure out why the tiger sharks that floated to the surface couldn't be eaten, Mu Yan just hurriedly cut off their fins and urged himself to leave quickly.

"What are the aborigines of the seven seas, are they very powerful?"

He remembered Mu Yan's explanation and said a lot of things he didn't understand, in short, the result was "This is someone else's thing, and I can't eat it."

"Then why did he cut off the wings off their backs?"

With his IQ, he couldn't understand that it was a fish fin (as if there was nothing wrong with shark fin), let alone Mu Yan's behavior.

That's when a small figure caught his attention.

"Huh?"

……

Deres couldn't believe what he was seeing!

Dragon!

Specifically, a dragon's tail!

It just juts out of the hole, clinging to the cliff, like a protruding cliff, but it looks different because it doesn't fit in with the surrounding colors.

The golden scales shine even in the goose feather snow, making people intoxicated and exuding an invisible coercion, which is the oppression from the food chain.

This tail is at least twenty meters long, right? Dreas thought, a little unsure, but unable to move because of the fear in his heart.

No, I have to leave now, and tell everyone that there's a dragon here! Those mounts couldn't walk because of the dragon, not some disease!!

Deres gritted his teeth and took out a dagger, stabbing it his thigh, and the pain suddenly gave strength to his numb leg. He kicked the rock wall, then opened his parachute, intending to fly off with the help of the wind.

At this moment, he only wished he hadn't been discovered.

……

Smaug was scared, and he remembered that Mu Yan had repeatedly stressed before leaving, "Don't be discovered by anyone."

So what now? If someone else finds out, there will be no reward!

Not good! That human moved! Huh? Why should he prick himself! It's over, it's over, he's jumping! He's going to run!! What to do? Smaug, think of a way!

Seeing that Deres was already floating in the air with his clothes open, Smaug subconsciously recited the "Strun-Bah-Qo" that he was most familiar with and had practiced countless times on the sea, and a cold hurricane whirled Deres into the cave.
