It's about 10 miles away from Matsuba Town, not too far, and the battle just now is quite big, so it's not safe here. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Nana, drag him, let's go." Link Road.

"Understood."

Nana walked up, took her sword back, carefully checked it, and after making sure that there was no problem, she reached out to carry the dragon warrior.

After that, Link went all the way ahead, Nana followed him, and the two of them ran all the way, until they ran more than ten kilometers to the depths of the woods.

The forest here is very dense, and even if this dragon warrior shouts out his throat, he doesn't have to worry about the sound coming out.

The two stopped at a large tree where at least three people hugged each other, and Link said, "Break the tendons of his hands and feet." ”

This guy is a high-level dragon clan, his strength is as high as level 8, and his recovery power is amazing, in case he recovers his strength and takes advantage of Link's slack to make a sneak attack, it is really possible to be turned over by him.

This is not a good idea.

Nana naturally complied, and slashed a few swords to directly cut off half of this guy's hands and feet...... In this case, the tendons and tendons must have been broken, and the unconscious Grove snorted a few times in pain, but his injuries were really serious, and he didn't wake up because of this.

Link was not in a hurry, pointing to the layer of dead leaves under the big tree, and said to Nana, "Take off your leather armor and lie down." ”

Nana and this dragon warrior fought hard a few times before, although there were a few blood holes in the other party's body, but the strength of the level 8 powerhouse was not a joke, Nana's hands and feet had been slightly deformed, and they had to be adjusted.

Nana is just a puppet, naturally without any shyness, 'swish' a few times to take off her leather armor, and then lie flat on the dead leaves, Link walked over and checked her right arm first.

This arm is the strongest part of Nana's body, and the dragon clan fought against a punch, at this time the damage can be clearly seen, and each joint has a slight deformation, although the metal that makes up Nana's body has a memory recovery function, but this function is very limited, if the key structure is too deformed, this function is powerless.

Holding Nana's wrist joints, Link unleashed a transformation spell that bit by bit restored the deformed joints and the crooked and broken runes.

Nana lay motionless, a pair of big innocent eyes looked at Link without blinking, with an innocent and innocent look, Link couldn't help but smile, although this is just a puppet, but it is indeed a very loyal and powerful combat partner, which has helped Link a lot.

His movements became more subtle and delicate.

The deformation of the arm is not serious, and it was quickly restored by Link, followed by the right leg, the strength of the dragon warrior's leg is much stronger than the arm, and Nana is in a hurry to raise her foot to deal with it, so the deformation is very serious, the entire calf bone can be seen to be obviously bent, and the knee joint, hip joint, and even the spine are slightly deformed.

Link intensified his efforts to transform the magic, straightening the bones little by little.

was busy, Nana suddenly said, "Master, is Nana injured?" ”

"It's an injury, but it's not a big problem, and it's getting better soon." Link replied with a smile.

"This target is a strange way to play, Nana has never met it." Nana pointed to the dragon warrior.

Obviously holding a war knife, but punching and kicking, as well as all kinds of small means and scheming, both seduction and threat, she almost couldn't cope with it, if it weren't for the speed, she would have died several times.

"You have to learn, there will be more and more such opponents in the future." Link Road.

This is the difference between a combat master and an ordinary warrior, the former not only has a terrible fighting instinct, but also has all kinds of small tricks and small means, and it seems that it is even a little indiscriminate, but it is often very effective, and in the face of this complex situation, Nana is a little unbearable.

'Nana is still not strong enough, hand-to-hand combat is an absolute weakness, but how can I change it? Link pondered.

In such a battle, Nana's speed advantage is weakened a lot, and the opponent is tough with her, she may be able to deal with one, but in the battle, her body will be severely damaged, and the second may not be able to do anything.

After thinking about it, Link suddenly set his eyes on the dagger strapped to his leg, today's situation, if Nana is not holding a whisper in the wind in her left hand, but this dagger that is said to be unbreakable, then this dragon warrior has been defeated early in the morning, and even better, the dagger is light and flexible, which is more suitable for hand-to-hand combat than a short sword.

Thinking like this, Link took out the severed dagger and handed it to Nana: "The whisper in the wind will not be used in the future, use this dagger, if the target uses his fists and kicks again, poke him with the dagger!" ”

Nana's body was still lying motionless on the ground for Link to repair, only his arm stretched out to take the dagger, played with it, and he returned the dagger to Link: "The dagger is too ugly, Nana doesn't need it." ”

"......" Link vomited blood, this puppet has shown this kind of little temper several times, she seems to have a sense of attachment to things in the past, such as she insisted on wearing a battle skirt before, and now she has worn leather armor for a long time, but she doesn't mention this stubble.

However, this also reminds Link that such a powerful puppet uses such an ordinary-looking dagger, isn't this a disguised way to tell the opponent that there is something special about this dagger?

However, the shape of the dagger can be changed.

At this time, Link had already helped Nana recover her body, he took back the dagger, and took out a small piece of Aojin, which was left over from the last time he refined the big musket, and used magic to melt the Aojin ingot, spread it flat on the dagger Broken Slash, and then retouched it a little, adding some quaint patterns, leaving only the blade of the Severing Dagger exposed.

In this way, the humble dagger has changed dramatically and become quite beautiful.

"Is it okay now?" Link handed the dagger back.

The corners of Nana's lips curled slightly, a smile appeared on her face, she took the dagger, and tied it to the side of her thigh like Link, she still didn't give up the whisper in the sword wind of her off-hand.

At this time, there was a painful groan from beside him, and the dragon warrior woke up, he felt his injuries, and his eyes were on fire when he looked at Link: "Who are you?" ”

'Ding' didn't need Link's command, Nana had already drawn her sword, and lightning came to him, the tip of the sword pointed at the person's heart, as long as the other party moved, the tip of the sword would pierce the opponent's heart.

Link walked over and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is what you want to do?" I am very interested in this, and Her Majesty is very much interested in it. ”

At first, the warrior still looked very calm, until Link said Her Majesty, Link saw that the warrior's whole body shook slightly, and his pupils shrank.

"I don't know what you're talking about!" He replied like this, which was enough to express the weakness of his heart.

Link smiled and took out a cowhide envelope from the warrior's side: "You don't have to load it, why do you think this envelope appeared in the mailbox at No. 92 Bluestone Road?" Because that's what I put in. ”

"......" Grove looked at Link with frightened eyes, he was already very cautious this time, in fact, he found out that there was an envelope in the mailbox 2 days ago, but he was afraid that something would happen, so he endured it and didn't take it, and waited for two days, and only started after making sure it was safe, but he didn't expect this person to be more patient than him, and he had been waiting next to him, just waiting for him to take the bait.

He is like a fish in the water, seeing a grain of food, wandering for a long time, finally sure that there is no danger, swallowing it in one bite, and the result is a deadly bait.

After a long silence, he said in a hoarse voice: "I have no choice, and you don't have to ask me, because I won't say it anyway...... I can't ..... either Say, I can only ..... Choose to die.... Death ......"

After saying this, this guy actually poured out a lot of blood from his mouth, and this blood was not red, but black, and it was sneering and smoking.

This guy decisively chose to commit suicide by taking poison, and it is estimated that the toxin has been in his mouth.

He laughed miserably and finally said, "May the queen be safe and sound." ”

Then he died.

Is it so decisive?

Link frowned, the other party committed suicide too quickly, without warning, he didn't have time to stop it, so that most of the clues he had just gotten were broken.

However, although the warrior could not speak, what he had on him could also give Link a clue to his next move.

Link sniffed lightly the cowhide envelope he had taken out of the warrior's arms, it was a little warm, but there was no scent of lilacs on it.

This shows that the existence of the mission issued to the ordinary Dragonborn Porot that day is not the warrior in front of him, but someone else.

Link looked at the dragon warrior's weapon again.

This is a very good dragon war knife, and the workmanship is very good, but the other party is very cautious and erases all the marks on the knife, and the origin of this knife is naturally impossible to find.

But there's more to the clues.

Link began to inspect the boots on the dragon warrior's feet, no, not boots to be exact, but the dirt on the bottom lines of the boots.

The warrior had obviously traveled a long way, and the dirt was divided into many layers, and the differences between them were so small that it was impossible for ordinary people to notice the difference between them, but it was not difficult for the magician.

Link watched closely, and finally used detection magic, and he got the concrete scent of the earth.

And that's not all, Link unleashed another 'Channeling Technique.' ’

This is a very simple level 2 occult magic, Link learned it to track people, because the magic is relatively low-level, it is not very effective when tracking high-level magicians and high-level warriors, but it is very reliable to track the origin of the dirt on a high-level warrior's boot.

After the magic was cast, Link felt his spirit in a trance, and immediately after, a faint mist path appeared in front of him, which was pointing him in the direction of this high dragon.

"Nana, give him a sword in the heart, and then we'll go."

"Understood." Nana stabbed the high dragon's heart with a sword, ruling out any possibility of suspended animation, and then followed in Link's footsteps.

On the next road, Link kept walking, walking for a full 30 kilometers, and then he came to a wood, and when he came here, the clue was completely broken, but Link was not in a hurry, he carefully observed the surroundings.

The woods are quite high, and from here, you can see a beautiful stone fort built in the field in the distance.

There was a stele at the entrance of the stone fort, and Link blessed himself with an eagle eye, and saw that the stele read: 'Dukedom of Oshoris'.

There are many farmlands around the stone castle, many ordinary dragonborns are working hard, and the entire duke seems calm and peaceful, and everything seems to be normal.

However, there was one sight that made Link immediately determine that this was the place where the conspiracy began!

He saw that on both sides of the rocky road from the stone fort to the stone monument, as well as in the flower beds inside the stone fort, purple lilacs were planted, and the flowers were blooming brightly.

Seeing this, information flashed in Link's vision.

Mission: Completed by the Black Hand.

Quest content: Enter the Duchy of Oshoris, discover the true purpose of the Duke of the Red Dragon, and obtain key evidence of the Duke's betrayal. Be careful, don't be noticed by the Duke!

Now, Link has 660 free points, and this step of the quest has a blood-red color in Link's vision, which indicates extreme danger.

In this way, this Red Dragon Duke is very likely to be a legendary powerhouse, at least a level 9 powerhouse, he must still have many subordinates, if he is alarmed, Link will definitely die.

After thinking about it, Link chose to accept it, but he had to plan it well. (To be continued.) )
