Chapter 268: Dragon Bone

readx;?β€œ The skeleton of the Monster?"

Cronis was stunned for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up, as if he remembered something:

"I remember, there's a basement here, and it seems to have some bones in it, but it's been a long time, let's go and take a look. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½β€

Clonis patted his head excitedly, and quickly called the guards to open the basement of the treasure house.

The basement door was opened, and a musty smell poured out, apparently no one had been in or out of the place for a long time.

The habit of cleanliness made Cronis and a few elven guards cover their mouths and hide to the side, while Alan summoned a fireball to illuminate in front of him and led the way down the stone steps, but as soon as he walked down the steps, he was stunned to see the scene in the basement with the help of the light of the fireball.

As Clonis said, there was nothing else in the basement, just a pile of thick white skeletons stacked on top of each other that took up almost half of the room.

Alan curiously walked over to the bone, stretched out his hand and touched them one by one, the surprise on his face becoming more obvious.

"What kind of bones are these?"

Alan studied the bones for a long time, and finally turned to ask Cronis, who had just walked behind him.

"I don't know, I heard my father say that he asked my grandfather the same question, but my grandfather gave the same answer as his, Grantham has been asking the same question for generations, but no one knows the answer, it seems that these bones have been here since the beginning of the construction of the treasury. Later, the treasure house was sorted out several times, because no one knew what these bones were for, but the ancestors left them could not be thrown away, so they were placed in the basement, and they were placed for thousands of years, if it wasn't for the curiosity when I was a child, I opened this basement once, I might not have known that they existed. ”

It seems that these bones left a very deep childhood memory for Cronis, and he still remembers it vividly even after hundreds of years, but when he mentions his father who died in battle, his expression becomes gloomy.

"I see. ”

With a relieved look on his face, Allen re-examined the huge bones and finally said his opinion:

"If I'm not mistaken, these bones belong to the dragon. ”

When Alan was studying alchemy at the Academy of Magic, Archmage Jones specifically mentioned dragons when explaining magic materials, their corpses are one of the best magic materials on this continent, the dragon's blood is the best magic material, and the dragon's bones are the best magic materials, and the magic energy it can withstand far exceeds other materials, which is necessary for refining a giant magic array. Alan had just tested these bones with his mental power, and he could feel a powerful resonance from them, which could only be felt on the top magic materials, combined with the giant scimitar-like shape of some bones, Alan not only remembered the knowledge that Archmage Jones had taught, so he deduced that these bones came from a dragon.

It's just that the dragon itself is a very rare species, and has a long lifespan, when the dragon is dying, it will generally choose a cave as a place to bury bones, that cave is called the dragon mound, of course, this is just a legend, because no one has ever seen the real dragon mound, so the dragon bones left on the continent are extremely rare, I didn't expect that there are so many dragon bones hidden in the elf clan, and they are ribs and leg bones with a large surface area, these bones have a smooth surface, and they are simply priceless treasures for alchemists. With enough magic crystals and dragon bones, with enough time, the Great Alchemist could even create a giant magic circle that would cover the entire city.

Legend has it that in ancient times, when the continent was still in a state of wilderness, the dragon once had a huge number of races, but at that time, the continent was crisscrossed by strange beasts, in order to compete for territory, they experienced a long and tragic battle, and the dragon was inevitably involved, and the strength of many ancient powerhouses was far from being comparable to the dragon, so the dragon clan at that time suffered a heavy blow, but fortunately, the dragon clan also had a high-level existence - the sacred dragon, they had more powerful strength than the ordinary dragon, and the dragon clan survived under their protection, until the advent of God, the continent was restored to peace。 At this time, the number of surviving dragons was very small, they chose the Kulen Mountains as their territory, except for the war with the giants, except for a few dragons, the others stayed in their own dragons** to guard their treasures, and lived a life without fighting with the world.

Since there was no civilization on the continent in ancient times, this period of history has not been truly recorded, and the source of the legend may be related to some records left by the gods.

"Alan, are you sure these bones are keels?"

Cronis was obviously also a little shocked by Allen's conclusion, the elves and dragons rarely crossed paths in history, how could they collect so many dragon bones?

"It's almost certain that if you look at these scimitar-like bones, they should be the ribs of a dragon. ”

Alan said, pointing to a bone that was at least twice his height.

"It does look like it. ”

Cronis curiously stroked the pale bones and nodded, the shape and size of the dragon was indeed close to that of a dragon.

"I wonder how the elves got these bones?"

The bones of these dragons are by no means a two-headed dragon, and if the legend is close to the truth, then these bones can only be handed down from ancient times, so Eren has this doubt.

"We don't even know what these bones are, how can we possibly know where they come from?"

Cronis shook his head.

"So do you know what the value of these bones is?"

Alan then asked.

"It is said that my ancestors saw that the structure of these bones was extremely hard and dense, which was an excellent material for making bone carving art, and wanted to make them into bone carvings, but later the actual operation found that these bones were too hard, and it was extremely difficult to use them to make carvings, even if the hardest swords were used, it would take hundreds of years to complete, and it was difficult to accept even in terms of the life span of the elves, so almost no one in the elves was willing to spend time on them except for a few craftsmen who regarded bone carving as their life, so these bones have been lying here without any use value。 ”

Klonis explained.

"Dragonbones are not for carving, they are the best material for alchemy, no other monster bones can compare to them, with these dragon bones, I can make a large Flame Gathering magic array to extract the water from the Fountain of Life. β€œ

Alan thought to himself, but what he didn't say was that using a keel to make a carving was simply a tyrannical thing, and it was estimated that only an elf who loves art could do it.
