Chapter 304: Why is this the key?

By the time everyone walked out of the castle again, the eastern sky had already revealed a touch of fish belly white.

Basking in the morning sun, Arrow took a deep breath, which allowed everyone to carry the treasure chest to the lawn outside the castle.

The crowd was far apart before Brad cautiously stepped forward with his long sword, grasped the hilt, and aimed at the rusty lock.

"President, I'm ready!"

The big man took a deep breath and nodded.

Arrow handed the last three bottles of healing aerosols left in his pocket to Cream and Cocoa on both sides, and held one bottle himself: "Do you understand, everyone?" As soon as Brad might be injured, we'll throw the healing aerosol right away! ”

After Cream and Coco nodded, Arrow thought about Brad over there and waved his hand: "Do it!" ”

As Arrow's words fell, the long sword in Brad's hand swung down violently! In an instant, the lock was smashed. Then, Brad raised his foot and kicked the lid of this treasure chest directly, and at the same time jumped back a big step, raising the long sword in his hand and preparing to deal with it anytime and anywhere!

………… Nothing happened.

After waiting for a while, there were no magical beasts or traps coming out of this box.

Seeing this, Arrow took a breath and said, "Okay, let's go up and have a look." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Margaux on the side ran impatiently, looking into the treasure chest with an excited face.

But when she really saw what was in the treasure chest, the girl's excited expression immediately became dull, and she shook her head again and again, and snorted.

Arrow, who was a little strange, also stepped forward to take a look.

Unfortunately, there were no gold or silver jewels in this chest.

Instead, there was only one sword slot, but the sword slot was not a divine weapon, but a ...... A short sword carved from stone?

"This thing, is that the monster desperately guarding?"

Coco walked up and took a look, and she was a little disappointed when she saw the stone sword carved out like a joke.

Arrow frowned, stretched out his hand, and carefully picked up the stone sword.

Not to mention, maybe it's because it's made of stone, but this sword feels quite weighty.

After holding it for a while, he felt a little struggling, and Arrow quickly grabbed the hilt of the sword, plunged the short sword into the ground, exhaled and said, "Anyway, I don't think this sword is just a decoration. Since the message says that this thing seems to be very important, there must be a reason......"

Although the long sword in Brad's hand had been missing several times due to the battle, the length of this stone sword was really a little short for a big man like him.

Therefore, he just inserted the broken long sword in his hand into the scabbard behind his back, and did not come up.

Since Brad didn't act, the cream next to him surrounded him. He pinched his chin, looked at the dagger carefully, and said, "President, let me try it, right?" ”

Arrow nodded, letting go of the hilt of his sword.

Cream gripped the sword and lifted it slightly. Obviously, even the Assassin's strength felt that the sword of stone was a little heavy. And the blade didn't seem to have an opening, so it was more convincing than a weapon as a decoration.

Seeing Cream holding the Stone Sword and constantly checking, Airo was also a little annoyed. He glanced at Margaux, who was constantly peeking at the mermaid's song, smiled, and walked in her direction.

"Drink, β€”β€”!"

Suddenly! With a loud cry of cream, there was a click on his side!

Arrow was startled and quickly turned his head. I saw that the stone sword that was still in his hand just now was now divided into two smaller stone swords? And the part where the two blades are separated just opened a chilling blade!

This change made Arrow speechless, only to see that Cream was now constantly wielding these two stone swords. Clearly, the thief was pleased with the weight and sharpness of the two weapons.

"How did you do that?"

Arrow asked.

Cream smiled and put the two blades together, and I don't know where the machine clicked, and the two stone swords merged into one again. Then, he pulled both hands to the sides again, and it turned into a dual-wielding dagger again.

"President! This weapon is so interesting! Can you just give it to me? ”

Seeing that Cream liked it so much, and that his weapon had been destroyed just now, Arrow immediately smiled and said, "Since you like it, then you can take it." It's just that this thing is too heavy, and you need to work out if you want to swing flexibly. ”

Arrow's words were right, and even though Cream kept wielding the Twin Swords of Stone, his strength was a bit overwhelming.

After the terrible battle just now, his hand suddenly collapsed, and a stone sword in his palm flew out like this, firmly inserting into the lawn in front of Arrow.

At this moment, Arrow was taken aback, and he quickly jumped back, and was about to open his mouth to blame.

But those complaining words had just reached his mouth and had not yet come out, and some changes that had occurred under his feet really made Arrow swallow all the words involuntarily.

"Sorry, sorry! President! I'm not careful, be sure to pay attention in the future! ”

Cream also hurriedly ran over, and when he saw that Arrow was now looking down at the surrounding area of the stone sword, he also lowered his head......

The weeds, and a palm-sized piece of dirt near the weeds, were all solidified into stone.

Seeing the effect of this sword, the faces of Arrow and the members couldn't help but change.

Cream quickly pulled out the stone sword and merged it with the other half. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and said, "I didn't expect that this sword could actually petrify things it touched?" There is no doubt that this is a magic sword! President, we're going to be able to do it this time! We found a magic sword?! ”

Compared to Cream's excitement, Airo is more calm.

No, it's just because the president can't casually show that he is too excited. So he could only smile slightly and nod slightly.

Overall, not bad?

After losing so much equipment, I finally got a magic sword.

A sword with magical power may be rare to find in such a remote area, but it is not a rare thing for Arrow, who is studying in the capital.

Isn't it? Those noble young masters almost each have a magic sword, and this weapon is also very expensive because of its unique magic, so it can be regarded as a status symbol in general.

Judging from the effect of this stone sword that can only petrify places the size of a palm, the magic effect is probably not too powerful. If so......

The words on those walls are pure nonsense of a madman before he died?

There are ten of these magic swords in the capital, and they are not very special no matter how you look at them. Of course, the exception is that it can be combined into a single sword, which can be transformed.

While Cream and Coco, Brad, and Parfay were excitedly discussing the magic sword, Arroult turned his head and looked at Margaux, who had already begun to walk away secretly, and said with a smile-

"Even if you want to leave, you can't just take other people's things and leave."

Margaux was slightly stunned, and his palm squeezed the staff of light slightly tighter. Immediately, the girl turned her head, looked at Arrow with a grin and said, "Someone else's stuff?" Have it? But I think this staff must have recognized me as its master, right? Didn't you see it glowing in my hand just now? Didn't see it now...... Hey? ”

Just as Margaux glanced triumphantly at the Staff of Light, she found that the Staff that was still emitting light just now had been extinguished again! And after using the magic to probe it, she could clearly feel that the connection between this staff and herself was directly broken, no matter how much she urged the magic power, those powers could not be transmitted to this staff.

Seeing this, Arrow couldn't help but laugh and said, "What's wrong with it?" It doesn't look like it identifies you as its owner. ”

Of course Arrow knew what this woman was trying to do.

In other words, at such a time, if you don't do this, I'm afraid you won't find a few people in the world.

At that moment, he waved his hand slightly, and the members of Mermaid Song behind him also split their minds and quickly ran up to form a circle around Margaux to prevent her from escaping.

Especially Cream, this guy is carrying this sword of stone, as if he wants to try it right away.

Well...... It's a bit of a dangerous feeling, so let's talk to him about it when it's over.

Arrow exhaled slightly, with a smile on his face, and said slowly, "Miss Margaux, I am grateful that you did not want to abandon us outright during that dangerous period just now. But one yard is one yard, you just talk about it, what choice do you need to make next? I don't need to say anything more, do I? ”

Seeing the members of Mermaid Song around her, Margaux also knew that she couldn't escape.

The girl's face showed an undisguised expression of regret and remorse, which made Arrow somewhat happy. After all, this woman has more or less added a lot of trouble to her guild, and it is not too much to embarrass her now.

After thinking for a while, Margaux snorted heavily and said, "Hey, the short man will grow, or else." ”

Margaux raised the staff of light in her hand and gesturedβ€”

"You see, there's not much in your guild that can use it. This thing is a good match for me. So, why don't you do a good deed and give me this thing? I'll find a way to pay you back in the future. If you really don't want to...... How about I stay with you for free for a month and help you sleep every night? I used to do these things in a month, and I needed enough money to buy you a dozen staffs. ”
