Shower Chapter 57: Susan Dundees' Choice (4)

"The Biology of Elsa" - Jane Goodall. :

There is a gust of wind, and the night cherry blossoms are scattered - Sakura Fire Dragon & Cang Fire Dragon.

The Sakura Fire Dragon is a subspecies of the Wyvern monster female Fire Dragon, and her whole body is a very beautiful cherry red. Unlike the female, Sakura is more aggressive on the ground, and even seasoned hunters will need to concentrate their full attention on this formidable opponent. Like the Fire Dragon, the cause of the Sakura Fire Dragon is also divided into two factions, one side always adheres to the doctrine of the fire dragon's middle-aged color change, while the other side adheres to the doctrine of the fire dragon's mutation. While the two sides were at loggerheads, some careful scholars pointed out that the frequent sightings of the pairing of the Sakura Fire Dragon and the Blue Fire Dragon might solve all the mysteries.

The power of the Sakura Fire Dragon lies in its use of the tail far above that of the female Fire Dragon, and by sweeping the tail and hanging upside down, the Sakura Fire Dragon's attack has a larger attack range and a greater threat to the enemy. For opponents who dare to bully closer, Sakura Fire Dragon's merciless side bite will also leave an unforgettable pain.

His unique moves have not been fully witnessed as follows:

Flame Side Bites:

Sakura Fire Dragon's side bite has a flame attached to it, causing burns to enemies that are hit or affected by the flames, which are difficult to heal simply due to mana, and can cause more pain than normal fire burns.

Tail Sweeping Poison Attack:

After charging, the Sakura Fire Dragon performs a wide range of tail sweeping attacks to the left, and due to the action of its tail venom glands, once hit by its tail sweep, it will fall into a poisoned state, unlike the female fire dragon's venom, this venom is corrosive.

Forward Rush Upside Down:

Sakura Fire Dragon quickly rushes close to the enemy and unleashes an upside-down attack that is extremely fast and difficult to guard against.

Rotation upside down:

After sweeping its tail forward for a week, the Sakura Fire Dragon gets up and immediately attacks its prey upside down, all in one go, inflicting heavy damage on the target - normally, the target will be split in two by the sharp tail spines, and even if they are lucky enough to survive, they will be injured by the venom.

The Pyrophorus is a subspecies of the Wyvern monster Male Pyrosaurus, named for its blue body color. Compared with the male fire dragon, the blue fire dragon flies in the air for a longer period of time, and is more sensitive to the ability to capture ground targets. As for the origin of the dragon, scholars have always been divided into two factions. One of the factions believes that the fire dragon is a male fire dragon after entering middle age, and because of the growth of age, the pigment level in the body also shows some special changes. The color of the body also changed from red to pale blue. Another faction believes that the cause of the fire dragon is far from so simple, first of all, the sighting reports of the fire dragon are very rare, and it seems a little out of place with the huge population of the fire dragon. Secondly, there is little intersection between the activity area of the fire dragon and the area where humans live, and it is also inconsistent with the actual ecological habits of the male fire dragon. However, neither side was able to adduce conclusive evidence, so this long-standing controversy remains inconclusive. Regardless of the cause of the Fire Dragon, there is no doubt that the dominance of this giant wyvern over the sky is indeed above that of the Male Fire Dragon.

By spitting fireballs in different ways, the dragon has greatly increased its control over its attack range, and it can play with its prey on the ground. In addition to the fireballs, the strong winds generated by the flailing wings of the dragon can whip up the ground and attack the target, making it even more unpredictable for opponents to follow its trajectory.

The Fire Dragon's moves are as follows:

Gliding Raid:

Slide from above enemies to the ground and attack enemies in a straight line.

Sand & Gravel Strike:

In the air, the wind creates wind pressure, and the sand and gravel under the body sweep away the prey, and is often used for small prey.

Burst Fireball:

Spits fireballs in the air and creates a wide explosion on the ground, with residual fire attached.

Backward Leap Fireball:

While jumping back quickly, he spits out fireballs to attack the enemy, this move activates very quickly, and the slow prey will be caught off guard one by one.

"I don't want to argue with you about anything, Mr. Accounting. Let's keep our opinions separate, it's normal for men and women to have different opinions. Susan said.

"As you wish, Miss Dundees. Alright, Susan, let's get back to business, we have one last option left. The accountant said.

"The last option is for the Chamber of Commerce to send me to join the 'Silent People', in fact, I don't know much about the Silent People, only that they are a group of killers, that's all, however, I hope the Chamber of Commerce can give me more information about this organization - it will help me make judgments and decisions that I will not regret."

"Well, then let Mr. Munster explain to you—he knows more than we do—about the 'Silent Man.'" The accountant asked the old man behind him to explain to Susan.

Wilhouse Munster sat down in front of him and told him all he knew: "Miss Dundeys, old Wilhouse is here to answer your doubts, and listen to old Wilhouse." ”

"Mr. Munster, please speak, and I will listen to you." Susan said politely.

"Mademoiselle, the old Wilhouse knows more because I am in charge of dealing with the 'Silent Men' in the Chamber of Commerce, so I know them better. As you said, the Silencers are a killer organization. However, they are not the same as the Thieves' Guild and the Assassins' Guild killers - the killers in these two places are not picky, they kill anyone - as long as you pay enough money. But the 'Silencers' are very different. The number of the Silencers is very small, but they are all Elsa's best killers, assassins, thieves, scouts, and even hunters. The Silence have a few rules of conduct that all of them must adhere to ... ”

Susan interrupted Munster's statement and asked, "They?" I noticed that you used the word 'they' in your wording, which is a very old word in the Doro Chinese language, in fact, the priest who taught me to read and write the Doro Chinese only taught me three ancient Doro Chinese languages: 'they', 'snow field', 'sword wolf', I wonder if you have any special meaning for using this ancient Doro Chinese language - different from the usual 'they' in the Sacred Falcon Emperor Chinese language? ”

Wilhouse nodded and said, "Indeed, I used this ancient word here, because it is more accurate. The word has three uses or meanings: the first is to refer to a woman of noble status; The second is to address women who are outstandingly good-looking; The third is to refer to those women who possess one of the three qualities of martial arts, courage, and convictions. ”

Susan understood—though the priest had given her only the first two usages, and the third she didn't know, but that didn't affect her clarity on the semantics, and she motioned for Wilhouse to continue.

"For the 'Silencers', they require that the members of the organization must meet all three of the above semantics, which is one of the conditions for joining them. As far as their code of conduct is concerned, first, they do not accept orders for murder of children under the age of 10; Second, they do not accept orders for murder of civilians; Third, they do not accept orders for innocent murders. As mentioned in the above three articles, they are principled organizations and will not kill people at will. ”

"Is there any other restraint or requirement for the Silent Man? Do they allow members to stab their enemies? Susan's breath was a little rapid, her face was ruddy, and she couldn't wait to get more information from Wilhouse, so she 'soared' up from her chair, propped herself on the table with her hands, and knocked it over as she got up.

"Miss Dundee, please don't be in a hurry, listen to me slowly."

Susan realized that she had lost her temper, so she propped up her chair and sat down while apologizing: "Sorry, gentlemen, I, I lost my temper. ”

The accountant and the old man waved their hands to show that they didn't care, while the others didn't show any expression.

"Only silence who has completed a certain task is allowed to stab the enemy, and those who do it early will be seen as betrayal. Of course, the same result is a violation of the code of conduct. ”

"What will happen to betrayal, I can ... Those who betray can flee or hide. ”

"There is only one result of betrayal, eternal death—the body, along with the soul, and everything you exist in this world will be erased. As for escaping, you can't run away from it with the power of the black mana avatar. Girls trained by the Silencers perform a ritual before they officially become Silencers—a sacrifice to the embodiment of black mana. ”

When Susan heard the word 'sacrifice', she flinched a little, so she asked, "What does it take?" She didn't notice that her voice was shaking.

"The chastity of a maiden."

"Chastity? Am I going to do 'that' thing? ”

"No, you don't need to, the incarnation of black mana during the ritual will leave a mark on you, with which you will be able to distinguish all the other silent people, you will be able to tell if people are malicious towards you, and you will be able to stay young for a long time. The process is nothing to feel about, but when the ritual is complete, you will only find that your chastity has been taken away from the 'concept', which is what the black mana incarnation needs, and as for your flesh, it is not needed. Your body will be intact – I promise. ”

"If it's the same as you say, then I'm actually not losing anything, am I?" Susan asked.

"No, first of all, although you can stay young, at the end of your life, you will age rapidly; Second, you'll never be able to have children again in your life, because your chastity is the embodiment of black mana—black mana values loyalty, so it can't be betrayed—and in fact, it won't give you a chance. ”

"I think I understand, sir, and thank you for answering your questions." Susan nodded and said.

"So, can you tell us now? Which path do you choose? The accountant asked.

"Wait a minute, if I become a Silent Man, what benefits will the Chamber of Commerce get from here?"

"The three heads, of course, meet the requirements of the Silent Man, and we will contact the Silent Man directly and assign you these three lists, which you must complete. When you do that, not only will you pay off your debts to the Chamber of Commerce, but the Chamber will be your forever friend and staunch supporter, Miss Dundees. ”

"Don't think about it, let's go right away and send me to be a silent man...
