Chapter 3: The Dragon's Corpse

High risk means high reward, provided you have to stick with it until the end, and for Mauss at the moment, it's about a test of willpower.

An hour later, he was still holding on.

Two hours later, his mental and physical strength was on the verge of collapse, but the damn passage was still incomparably long.

I have to admit that in these intricate passages, Maus is completely disoriented, and he can only move on with instinct.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem. ”

When Mauss was completely desperate, he saw a ray of light, and without the slightest hesitation, he chased after him directly.

Finally leaving the foul sewage, Mauss trembled, he didn't know where he was, the light had some kind of magic that fascinated him.

Crunch.

Reluctantly pushing open a door, a warm breath came to his face, and Maus involuntarily walked in.

It was a bedroom-like room, very brightly lit, with a desk with an oil painting and a few books, some pen and paper for writing, and a huge cabinet not far away.

Mauss shifted his gaze to the cabinet, and he staggered over.

Gently opening the cabinet, Mu Si was stunned for a moment, the cabinet was divided into two layers, the upper layer, there were many strangely shaped beakers, the beakers could obviously be seen containing blue or green liquid, and there was also a plate of dry purple fruit next to it, the number was full of ten.

In the lower level hung several suits, somewhat old but new, one lined with trousers, and one robe.

Maus quickly changed himself, the clothes were a little too big for him, but they were much better than the rags on his body. He then took the plate out and desperately stuffed the fruit into his mouth, he was very hungry and desperately needed something to eat to replenish his strength.

The purple fruit had no taste, it was astringent and dry, and it was hard to swallow, but Maus swallowed it anyway, and then he stared at the beakers.

Grunt, grunt, grunt!

After eliminating the fruit and the liquid in the beaker, Maus felt his whole body flutter, his steps were vain, and he reluctantly sat down at his desk, his mind disturbed by countless voices.

There was an unspeakable pain all over his body, his chest seemed to be burning with fire, and Maus's consciousness became weaker and weaker, and after a while, he stopped thinking.

Time was slipping away, and when Mause woke up again, three days had passed, of course, he didn't know anything about it, and his mind was completely shocked by the changes brought about by his body.

"Me, totally alright?"

Mauss couldn't believe it, he found that he was surprisingly good, and even had a feeling that he could control his surroundings, and noticed that all the scars on his body, new and old, had healed.

Hiding his excitement in his heart, Maus picked up the oil painting and examined it carefully, showing a middle-aged man and a little girl, with a line of small characters underneath.

"To my dearest daughter, Shura, this laboratory is yours from now on, and you will be the happiest little angel in the city of Karen, and the father who loves you the most, the Viscount of Rio. ”

Maus's gaze swept over the middle-aged man on the screen, he knew this person, it was the Viscount of Rio Manor, and the little girl next to him, he could be sure that it was Shura.

"What is this?"

Looking at the little girl quietly, Mauss was not surprised by her innocent smile, but thought of the little girl who had been robbed of her bread, and the two seemed to be the same person.

After putting down the painting, Mauss began to flip through the books, although he had not undergone a formal education, he still knew a lot of words, enough to read the words on them.

The books were stories and biographies, and Mauds was of little interest in them, and after putting them back in place, he opened the drawer in front of his desk.

"I've finally found the gold coin. ”

There were about a dozen gold coins in the drawer, and nothing else than this, but Mauss was satisfied, and the adventure did not disappoint him.

After taking the gold coins, Maus was about to go back, but he looked around, but he saw something strange on one of the walls, and couldn't help but step forward.

After looking at it for a long time, Mause could be sure that he saw something unusual, some strange light moving at high speed along a certain trajectory, and he cautiously reached out to touch it.

A strong resistance was clearly felt, and at that moment, a keyhole suddenly appeared in the wall.

"The lab must be hidden behind this wall. ”

Mus didn't stop where he was, he began to look around for the key, and when the search was fruitless, he returned to his desk, looked at the little girl on the painting again, and knew exactly what he should do next.

Putting the gold coins back in the drawer, Mause took only one and quietly left the bedroom, not wanting to go down the drain, so he walked along the dry passage.

Tick, tick, tick.

The only sound of Maus's footsteps and dripping water in the dark passages is that the eerie atmosphere always frightens people.

Mauss shuddered, and he began to wonder if he was going in the wrong direction, but he didn't give up and wanted to see if he was going a little further.

After walking for about half an hour, the passage became wider, and gravel and dirt began to appear on the ground, and a pungent smell hit me.

The air was filled with sourness, and Maus was wary, now he was sure that he was going the wrong way, the light here was a little brighter, and the surroundings were covered with foul slime.

Not far away, on the ground, there was a huge monster lying horizontally, and the pungent smell came from it.

The monster was huge, its body was the size of a small house, covered in scales, and Maus stopped in the distance, and he felt that his breathing became difficult, and it was difficult to even move.

After a stalemate of ten minutes, Mauss recovered a little, he was wary of the monster, but his mind was thinking quickly.

"If it's alive, then I'm afraid I won't even have a chance to escape. ”

Thinking of this, Mauss overcame his fear, and he slowly walked towards the monster, the short distance was longer than he had imagined, closer, closer and closer.

"Oh my God, someone could kill it. ”

Maus couldn't help but take a breath, this dead monster was clearly a dragon, and he couldn't imagine that he could see such a monster so closely.

The dragon was too dead to die, his eyes closed and not breathing, a scepter in his chest, its belly bulging high, and Mashes had to wonder if this was the guy who destroyed the Rio Manor.

The next moment, Maus made an astonishing move, and he climbed directly onto the dragon, and the blue gem on the scepter attracted him deeply.

Soon, Mauss grasped the scepter in both hands, and he struggled to pull it out.

"The gem is mine. ”

The scepter stood still, and Maus's efforts couldn't shake it in the slightest, but he didn't give up, the treasure was in front of him, how could he give it up so easily.
