Chapter 174: Ancient Spirit
"I'm afraid I'm going to live up to my mentor's kindness!"
Thinking of the letter of introduction that Ernest gave him in the dimensional bag, Kyle had to smile wryly.
He can't trust his 'uncle' Di Ning.
After all, there will always be a small number of people in this world who can send charcoal in the snow, and more of them will still choose to fall into the ground, not to mention that Kyle and Dineen are far from being close, but they just happen to be from the same school.
Rather than take a risk and seek help, Kyle might as well take matters into his own hands.
It's better to run into walls everywhere than to die!!
"Guests are also interested in this bounty?" Seeing that Kyle had been staying in front of the sign and looking at it, the innkeeper couldn't help but ask.
"Indeed!"
Kyle nodded, "Three pieces of epic equipment for free customization, and a promise from the Elder of the Empire, Elonus...... Few people can resist this temptation! ”
For the sake of realism, Kyle has a yearning look on his face, as if he is not talking about himself.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he looked around, then whispered to Kyle.
"It's a pity, I heard from the royal guards who posted the wanted notices that these people have fled from the Dark Regions to the Northern Continent, and we can't count on them!"
However, the shopkeeper had a 'ask me' and 'ask me' expression.
Kyle immediately knew his purpose, and the shopkeeper saw Kyle staring at the billboard, thinking that Kyle had taken a fancy to the bounty and wanted to hunt down 'himself', so he planned to sell Kyle 'confidential' information.
That is, Kyle is still on the ground and plans to go to the Tower of the Stars.
Thereupon......
With a 'dang bang', several gold coins fell on the counter.
The shopkeeper was about to open his mouth, but Kyle said, "Please give my wolf a meal, thank you, and remember to have the best ribs...... Must be cooked!! ”
"Uh......"
Damn, you don't play cards according to the routine!!
Looking at the back of Kyle's departure, the shopkeeper's heart was like 10,000 divine beasts running by, and it was extremely messy.
………………
Next.
Golden Ring City Pier ......
"It's amazing!"
Kyle rides Fenrir with Nasha, Garcia, and Bevis (Poetry's brother), and everyone but Dick is in the shelter as they wait to board the ship.
And what made Kyle exclaim was the 'boat' they were about to ride.
If only it could be called a boat......
Because it was a black whale that was surprisingly large.
From head to tail, the whale alone is exposed to the water, which is nearly five kilometers long.
The most conspicuous thing is the sharp horn on the top of the whale's head that is more than 500 meters long, covered with mysterious cloud patterns, and from time to time there are bright arcs jumping on the long horn, which is terrifying.
Its black skin is full of wrinkles, and it looks thick and hard, but it is covered with traces of various deep-sea beasts.
'Scourge Behemoth...... It's really a natural disaster. ’
Although the whale was quietly outside the harbor (the water in the harbor was not deep enough), Kyle couldn't imagine how much rough it would cause if the whale, which was more than five kilometers long, was now in full swing.
And the thunderous horn on the top of the whale's head is obviously not an ornament.
In all his past and present lives combined, this whale was the largest creature Kyle had ever seen, and even the Poison Fortress was only one-fifth of it.
Kyle estimates that there won't be any bigger creatures in the world besides the World Tree!
At this time, the giant whale had already opened its huge mouth, and many extremely small looking figures and mechanical structures were constantly moving in and out, as if they were carrying goods, which made Nasha very weak.
"Kay... Doragon. ”
She nervously hugged Kyle's arm, "We'...... It's not going to go into its belly, is it? ”
Thankfully, she hasn't forgotten what Kyle's current pseudonym is.
"This ......"
Kyle isn't sure either.
When he bought the ticket, he only said that he wanted the safest and fastest boat.
Who knows......
That's right! Such a big whale, the size is placed there, the speed must be fast, and there are no creatures in the sea that can threaten it, so don't want to be safe.
But if you need to get into the belly of a whale............ Forgive Kyle for being difficult to accept!!
"Please rest assured!"
At this moment, a soft but magnetic voice comes from the side, and the owner of the voice comes to Kyle's side right after.
…… He is a half-elf who looks to be seventeen or eighteen years old.
He pointed to the giant whale and said, "Although the Dimensional Sac (the organ where certain animals temporarily store food) in the 'Thunder Island' Palekaos is large enough to hold ten Golden Ring Cities, it is used to carry goods, and travelers will not live there. ”
"Who are you?"
Kyle looked at the half-elf warily...... He didn't remember knowing such a person.
After all, he is sensitive now, but now someone is rashly approaching, which really makes Kyle feel uneasy.
"Ahh It's a faux pas. ”
The half-elf bowed slightly and introduced himself: "Contemptible Ngoman Golden Ring, first time we meet, I would like to ask Your Excellency your name." He asked Kyle.
"Doragon... Doragon Plauderske. "It's Kyle's current pseudonym.
As for the real meaning......
…… Huh.
Anyway, people in this world don't understand, at most they think it sounds weird.
…………
After a conversation with N'Goman, Kyle finally let down his guard.
This half-elf just saw that Kyle could command a super-level creature like Fenrir, so he wanted to get acquainted: "Your Excellency Doragon has a long journey, how difficult it is to be unaccompanied, we are also half-elves, I invited a few of my fellow clans to go with me, why don't you go with you?" ”
"It's an honor."
Kyle thought about it and nodded happily, his current appearance was also half-elf, and he couldn't look too unsociable.
And, after Ngoman's introduction, Kyle also knows something about the giant whale.
Its name is Palekaos, also known as 'Thunder Island', and it is an ancient overlord whale that has survived to this day, and belongs to the ancient spirit creatures, which are the original flesh and plant creatures of Tygulas.
Born in the same era as the beast demigods.
Due to the huge demand for food, the ancient spirits have gradually become extinct, and the number of existing demigods is probably smaller than that of demigods, most of whom live in the deep sea, where food is relatively abundant, and Palekaos is one of them.
Currently, it works for the Tower of the Stars in exchange for enough food to avoid dying in its slumber.
And Kyle doesn't have to drill its belly.
Travelers are located in the fat layer on Palekaos' back, which is safe and not intimidating, giving you the best of both worlds.
"Golden Ring...... With the surname of the city lord Tarina, is it a descendant? ”
Looking at Ngoman next to him, Kyle was thoughtful.
