Chapter 4: The Frozen Throne (Revision)
"Isn't it! Did the elders of your family say that the person was male or female? Xie Chengbin suddenly had a picture in his mind, in which he was alone, and the magic on the opposite side flew towards him like a meteor shower! I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when I thought of this, but people had saved themselves, and they couldn't say anything if they didn't help. "Mo... Miss Monica, my surname is indeed Xie, but I don't know magic, could I be looking for the wrong person? ”
"I thought you would be a Magister or a Juggernaut, but I didn't expect ...... Is the empire really hopeless? Monica said as she spoke, two lines of tears welled up from her eyes, and she looked like she was crying!
Xie Chengbin is not afraid of heaven and earth, but he is afraid that women will shed tears, and when he saw Monica about to cry, he immediately panicked. "Okay, okay, okay, don't cry, there is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of people with hearts, as long as we work together, there is nothing that can't be done!"
"Really?" Monica's spirit was shocked when she heard this, and all the melancholy was swept away, and she was like two people like Monica who was pitiful just now. "So you promise me? So what do we do now? ”
"......" Xie Chengbin just appeared on the thief ship, feeling very speechless, are women so fickle? It's good now, I don't know what to do, I can only take one step at a time, but it's a pity that Guo Jia is not here, otherwise no matter how big the difficulty is, it will become a piece of cake. "First of all, there must be a lot of people who are loyal to you, and secondly, you must have money, whether it is to promote the country's economy and trade or something else, anyway, the more the better, do you still have money or treasures or something?"
"No, all the people were either captured or killed, and I was the only one left. All the gold in the treasury was robbed, and that's all I had left. Monica took the money out of her pocket, and in her small hand, two gold coins, three silver coins, and three copper coins lay quietly in Monica's hand, these coins were small, each coin was only a centimeter in size, and with a small number and different colors, you could see at a glance how many.
"That's it? How much is that? "Xie Chengbin thought that he was also a princess, and no matter how little he was, he would get a few boxes of treasures, but he didn't expect that it would be just these few coins! This time, even if Guo Jia is here, it is estimated that Guo Jia will not be able to return to the sky. "Is there a fastest-earning career?"
"It's all here, a total of two hundred and thirty-three yuan, and if you save a little, you can spend half a month for two people. The fastest way to make money is to go to the Mercenary Guild to take on tasks, and the more difficult it is, the higher the commission. Because of the shyness in the bag, Monica was also a little embarrassed.
"Let's go, let's go, let's clean up quickly, if we slow down, we'll all starve to death." Xie Chengbin couldn't stand it anymore, and urged Monica like a duck on the shelf.
Out of the cabin Xie Chengbin only to know that he was in the suburbs, the surrounding flowers and trees are everything, the scenery of birds and flowers is unforgettable, the strange thing is that the sunshine here is not golden but purple, beautiful and enchanting! For a while, Xie Chengbin was dumbfounded.
At this moment, Monica whistled very loudly with her thumb and forefinger, and the earth immediately began to tremble, and then a huge monolophosaurus sprang out of the woods! What's even more incredible is that the single-ridged dragon rushed straight towards Xie Chengbin and the others! Xie Chengbin was shocked, and subconsciously opened his hands to protect Monica. "The monolophosaurus is coming, let's go!"
"That's not a monolophore, it's a monolophore." The strange thing is that Monica is not flustered, and has no intention of leaving at all.
The single-locosaurus is getting closer and closer, the earth is trembling more and more, the distance between the two sides is less than thirty meters, and the single-locosaurus will be able to reach it in two seconds, Xie Chengbin was so anxious that he yelled. "I don't care if it's a dragon or a worm, it's too late if I don't leave!"
"It's my pet, I'm waiting for it to come." After Monica finished speaking, the single-locosaurus also rushed in front of her, only to see that the single-locosaurus was very docile and lay down, without the slightest intention of attacking Xie Chengbin. Monica was not afraid of the fierce single-loblast at all, jumped on the neck of the single-loblast very lightly, and walked from the neck of the single-loblast to the back of the seat, seeing that Xie Chengbin was still standing stupidly at the door of the cabin, and motioned for Xie Chengbin to come up together. "Didn't you just shout to leave? Why aren't you leaving now? ”
Xie Chengbin had never ridden a carnivore, let alone a beast like a monolophosaurus, and he was a little discouraged for a while, and after a short struggle of thoughts, he clumsily climbed onto the neck of the monolophosaurus, and then climbed to the back of the monolophosaurus and sat face to face in front of Monica. "You just said it wasn't a dragon?"
Monica tapped her legs slightly, and the monolophosaurus got up and ran, without using the reins to change direction. "This is the second only monoverted beast after the overlord beast, these two beasts can not only change the size of the body but also magic, that is, they can be used as combat pets or mounts, and they are the pets of choice for nobles."
"And what is a dragon?" The first time Xie Chengbin sat on the back of a single-ridged beast running wildly, it was about eighty to ninety, and he felt that it was very fast but not very bumpy, but the wind was a little strong. No fuel and no driving, it's so convenient!
"Dragons are the most powerful creatures in the world, divided into several races but generally divided into two main groups, one that looks like a single-ridged beast but has wings, and the other has the body of a snake, eagle claws, fish whiskers, antlers, etc., and magically can fly without wings. No matter what kind of dragon they are, they are very proud and very fond of treasure, they can have unique dragon language magic and have a long lifespan, and adult dragons can also transform into human form. "Monica's veil wasn't blown away or lifted because of the wind.
Before I knew it, I came to the castle again, and since I was not allowed to ride a horse in the city, I had to go on foot.
After buying some dry food, the two came to the mercenary association, only to see that the hall of Nuoda was crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder, and there were many burly half-orcs among them. I don't know if it's because no one manages it or for other reasons, but it's comparable to any large-scale concert.
In the center of the hall, there are six very conspicuous large wooden boards placed in a gossip formation, and many small wooden boards are hung on the front and back, and strange symbols are drawn on the small wooden boards, which look a bit like oracle bone inscriptions, anyway, Xie Chengbin didn't understand it. There are staff members who keep removing the small wooden boards and putting on new ones.
According to Monica, these small boards are written with various tasks, and each time a task is completed, it is taken down and replaced with a new one. Only then did Xie Chengbin realize that the language here was the same as Mandarin, but the writing had always been written in oracle bones.
Of the six large planks, five were busy changing them on and off, but only one big plank remained intact, Xie Chengbin asked Monica why. According to Monica, this taskboard is full of long-term tasks, which are relatively difficult, and no one has been able to complete them, so it has been shelved, but many people are attracted by these high commissions and die.
Xie Chengbin thought that if he didn't open for three years, he would open for three years, and if he wanted to do it, he would do it big, so he asked Monica to take on the most difficult task. "Monica, what's the hardest task?"
"What! The hardest? "Even if Monica has an excellent cultivation, she can't help but be a little surprised, isn't this a play for life?
"Otherwise, when will there be enough money to do those ordinary tasks? Even if we work hard for a lifetime, it's not enough, how about seeking wealth and danger? Xie Chengbin shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, looking indifferent.
"Well, the hardest task is to find the Dragon Balls, and the location is the Frozen Throne, one of the ancient ruins, for a commission of 10 million gold coins." Although Monica thought it was crazy, there was some truth to it, so she had to agree.
After handing over two silver coins, the formalities were completed, and they were immediately released.
This operation is not just Xie Chengbin and the two, there are many people who want money and don't want their lives, and there are many people who want to go to the Frozen Throne along the way, Xie Chengbin and Monica are neither the first to come nor the slowest, they are just one of the huge treasure hunting team. The Frozen Throne was the center of the ancient Lich's Scourge Legion, where it snowed all year round and was infested with undead or undead, with no supplies, and many people never returned, never to be heard from since.
From Xie Chengbin's castle to the Frozen Throne, it took more than ten days to ride a single-ridged beast, and during these days, Xie Chengbin had nothing to ask Monica about this planet.
According to Monica, this planet is bounded by the equator, and the north is inhabited by dark power races without sunlight all year round, such as night elves, immortals, undead, demons, werewolves and other races, and even the beasts are all carnivores, these races are strong at night and their strength during the day is greatly reduced. In addition to humans, there are also light power races such as elves, treants, dwarves, goblins, orcs, and sea tribes. Dragons only live in their favorite places, such as volcanoes, icebergs, isolated islands, water, and so on. It is worth mentioning that light and darkness are fundamentally different from good and evil, and wars between humans or dragons are happening from time to time, and various races are constantly fighting for resources.
Xie Chengbin and the others have crossed the seventh day of the equator, the sky is overcast, and it seems that heavy rain is about to fall at any time, in fact, it has been this weather for the past seven days. Surrounded by dead wood and bones, there is no grass but not desert and the Gobi Desert, and the wind blows through the creepy and terrifying, this background is definitely the best place to shoot ghost movies.
The one-ridged beast ran and suddenly stepped into the air and fell into the dirt, and the huge inertia of this sudden braking threw Xie Chengbin and Monica out together! Fortunately, Xie Chengbin and Monica are agile, and they quickly change their posture before landing so as not to fall and get hurt. The Monolob had regained its footing, and as the two of them got closer, it seemed that some of the nest had been trampled by the Monolocele.
