Chapter 104: Joining the War
The dark crystal fragment on the table emitted a mysterious light, and the eyes of the elders present were instantly attracted to it, and one of the old men carefully picked up the fragment and put it in the palm of his hand to observe it carefully. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"This thing is called a dark crystal? Is it really as magical as you say? The old man couldn't figure out why he studied for a long time, shook his head and handed the thing to the person next to him.
Roque waved his hands and said, "If it's true or not, you can just find an ordinary beast and try it." ”
The red-haired old man's eyes narrowed, and out of nowhere, he instantly took out a live rabbit and said to Roque, "Then I'll try it." But boy, do you know the consequences of cheating on us? If it turns out that the catalytic effect you said is a lie, it will be more than just getting you out of here. ”
"Give it a try."
"Good!" The red-haired old man grabbed the head of the struggling rabbit and shoved the black crystal shard into the rabbit's mouth. At the moment when the rabbit swallowed the black crystal fragment, he suddenly trembled violently and let out a wailing sound.
The red-haired old man let go of his grip on the rabbit and let it struggle over there.
Within a few moments, the rabbit's eyes began to turn blood-red, its drooping ears stood up at some point, and its body began to swell, soon from the size of a basketball to the size of a calf. At the same time, the rabbit's two front teeth have become huge and sharp, and the cold light flickered to tell that it was not a gentle creature.
"Oh, this ......" the red-haired old man let out an exclamation as he watched the scene in surprise.
At the same time, the rest of the elders were also shocked by this miraculous scene.
"Just a small piece of black crystal fragment has turned an incomparable rabbit into a third-order boss-level monster, no wonder the Yuge Empire has such a terrifying monster army, this thing is indeed very rebellious." The dark mage named Tris looked interested in the dark crystal, and listening to his tone, he couldn't wait to personally go to the trouble of the Yug Empire to grab some dark crystals back, he was really a dangerous person.
"Alright. It turns out that what you said was true. It's just that...... Even if what you say is true, compared to the huge cost of participating in the war, a little dark crystal wants us to do it? ”
"I'm not done yet. You try to contact this mutated rabbit with your mental power and see what happens. Roque said unhurriedly.
So the poor rabbit was miserable, and one moment he ran wildly about, and the next he jumped up and down, and the whole conference room was in a mess.
"It's ...... I can actually manipulate this rabbit with mental power! The red-haired old man exclaimed.
"It's horrible...... In other words, the Yug Empire's monster legion is completely controlled by humans, and if nothing else, it is only a matter of time before the Yog Empire dominates Anaith. ”
"The dark crystal has two functions that have been figured out so far: one is to make beasts or monsters evolve; The second is the consciousness that can manipulate monsters. As for whether there are other functions, I don't know yet...... "Roque deliberately concealed that the dark crystal can also greatly enhance the costume attributes of the dresser and the effect of enchanting equipment, at least these two functions have already made several old men on the opposite side fidget.
"I don't think I need to talk about the effect of being able to manipulate a powerful monster 100%. Compared to puppets and pets, this kind of doppelganger who completely controls the action on its own can explore dangerous ruins, spy on enemies, and so on. And this magical treasure certainly has more than just these simple functions. "Roque is like a profiteer who sells treasures, little by little, he arouses the interest of customers to buy.
The red-haired old man was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed and said, "Very good! The dark crystal does have a value for sale, but I want to ask, apart from the high-ranking members of the Yug Empire and a few of you, how many people still know about this matter? ”
Roque's pupils shrank, and he secretly scolded that he was worthy of being an old fox, and he got to the point in one sentence. He probably thinks that this information is all told to him by Amilia, and now he will find out his own tone first, if there is no third party to know, it is very likely that several of his own people will be killed. If anyone other than himself knew about this, it was not impossible for the red-haired old man to take Emilia hostage and threaten Frank to hand over the dark crystal......
"I don't know much about this, but Emilia told me that the black crystal can not only catalyze fourth-order boss-level monsters, but also legendary-level high-level monster bosses have appeared in the past......" Roque did not answer this question directly, but deliberately turned the topic to other aspects.
"Legendary high-level monster bosses? Is it possible to give birth to a monster of this magnitude? How, exactly? The red-haired old man looked interested.
"I can't ask Emilia until she wakes up. The top priority now is to send people to get in touch with these countries first and form a line of defense against the Yug Empire, otherwise by the time the situation is irreparable, it will really be too late. Roque began to urge.
"Hmm. What do you guys think? The red-haired old man sat down and asked the others.
"I'm very interested in the treasure of the Dark Crystal. I agree. ”
"Me too."
"It's like an activity."
"Yes."
……
"In that case, then we can issue the 'Sage Decree'. Inform the members scattered throughout the continent as soon as possible to prepare for war with the Yug Empire. And send a few sharp-tongued guys to negotiate with those nobles who are all over the gosh, and if we want us to help them, we have to squeeze them dry. The red-haired old man smiled, it seemed that this was not the first time he had done such a rip-off thing.
"As for you juniors...... red-haired old man glanced at Roque, and there was a hint of banter in his words.
"I want to go to war too." To the surprise of the red-haired old man, Roque actually offered to join the war.
"What? Are you dreaming? You, a fourth-order junior, even if your strength is much stronger than ordinary people of the same rank, what can you do in such a battlefield where hundreds of thousands of people are at every turn? Even if a person spits on a mouthful of water, he can drown you, and it's not your play to find death. ”
"Nope. Actually, I'm not just a fourth-order professional, I'm also a dresser. Roque finally revealed his identity as a dresser.
"Dresser?" This time it was Tris's turn to be surprised, "You're the legendary dresser who can do all the professions by himself?" ”
"Yes. I'm not very strong, but I have a lot of different class outfits, such as the Scholar class, which can distinguish the attributes and weaknesses of enemies, and the Doctor class, which can heal the wounded, so I can be very useful even if I can't go into battle myself. ”
"Since you want to go to war so much, I won't stop you, but the ugly words are ahead, if you encounter danger on the battlefield, we can't save you. And you can't talk about dark crystals everywhere, or you'll ......."
"Rest assured. I still have companions here, and I wouldn't do such a stupid thing. Roque said.
"Okay. Then you can wait for the personnel to arrive and prepare to fight together, and hopefully you will come back alive to visit your companions. ”
