Chapter 30: Dragon's Blood
Leaving from Wuma Qing's private training ground, Zhou Yao did not return home, but got in the car and rushed directly to the next stop, the Central Knights station.
Why did he go there on a hot day, of course, because the fire dragon blood that unlocked the mission had landed again. After receiving contact from Titia this morning, Zhou Yao was excited for a while, and he could finally start the next path to unlocking the Heroic Spirit.
As for the source, it is also necessary to mention that the other night, he helped the Central Knights solve the disappearance of the holders, and solved all the missing holders. As a reward for this matter, Joan of Arc, the head of the Knights, proposed to him what he wanted to be satisfied as much as possible, so Zhou Yao casually proposed the need for fire dragon blood. Although he had left a message on the message board at the Knights' station, it didn't work much, so this was the first thing that came to his mind when he heard Joan of Arc's words.
However, because he knew the rarity of dragon blood, Zhou Yao didn't have much expectation after proposing it to Joan of Arc, but hoped that she could collect information about dragon blood
As a result, I didn't expect Joan of Arc to really get the fire dragon blood. Should it be said that it is worthy of the Central Knights who can sit on an equal footing with the three royal families, the efficiency is fast enough, and it would be better if you could get the information of the dragon's blood by the way......
"Hmph, I'm looking forward to it." Zhou Yao hummed happily and casually glanced at the scenery outside the car window. Like him, the second person sitting next to him seemed to be in a good mood, probably because he had achieved good results in his cultivation.
Zhou Yao, who was a little curious, couldn't help but ask: "How is your cultivation with that guy recently?" Judging by the fact that you are in a good mood, you must have made great progress. ”
The "guy" in his mouth undoubtedly refers to Xiao Yu, who has just added noodles. To be honest, Zhou Yao originally didn't plan to agree to the two of them becoming masters and apprentices, but he could keep in mind the matter of injuring the second stay, and it would be very good if he didn't have trouble with Xiao Yu. Dare to hurt your own second fool? Give him a hundred rounds of conviction and a taste. Fortunately, Erdu's injury was not serious, and he recovered quickly due to his physique, so he dispelled this impulse. But even if it is really convicted, it is estimated that it will not hurt Xiao Yu. He learned Xiao Yu's true body from Wu Ma Qing, who was actually the peerless overlord Xiang Yu. This is really a fact that Zhou Yao never thought of.
The first time he saw Xiao Yu, he felt "so cute!" It must be a boy! ”。 And when it comes to the overlord Xiang Yu, it is a manly man. One looks a little weak, and the other is heroic and invincible. The images of the two are too mismatched.
But if you think about it carefully, it is also reasonable, you can defeat two fools in one move, and you are worthy of the name of the overlord.
Because of this, he finally agreed to follow Xiao Yu to practice. One uses a halberd and the other uses a spear, and the two are very similar in the field of martial arts. Zhou Yao is also happy to see that Erdu's strength can be taken to the next level.
"Yes! I don't dare to say that I have made great progress, but I have indeed benefited a lot from studying with Master Yu these days! Er's uplifted tone showed the positivity in her heart. For four months, she and Sakuya took turns to follow Zhou Yao, and it has been two months since she practiced with Xiao Yu.
"Really? That's good. Zhou Yao smiled and nodded.
Seeing that Erdu was so happy, he also felt very satisfied.
Soon, the Central Knights station arrived, and Zhou Yao and Er Du got out of the car and walked into the compound under the scorching sun.
Even though the weather is so hot, there are still many owners in the station, and the laughter is as good as ever.
"Ah, here we are."
Yan Xi, who was standing at the door of the hall, waved when she saw Zhou Yao and the others, and under her leadership, Zhou Yao went to Joan of Arc's living room.
"This is it, the head of the regiment is inside. Then I'll go first. ”
Yan Xi pointed to the door in front of the three of them, waved goodbye and left.
Zhou Yao opened the door, showing in his eyes that it was a Japanese-style room that was different from the outside style, and Joan of Arc changed into a kimono and sat on a tatami mat and was sipping tea.
is really worthy of being a master and apprentice, and even the preferences are the same...... Zhou Yao complained in his heart, took off his shoes and walked into the room, followed by Erdu.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Zhou Yao, Ms. Honda. You may be seated. ”
Joan of Arc seems to have changed from a dutiful knight to a gentle and steady ordinary woman, and said with a smile like a spring breeze.
"Good afternoon."
Zhou Yao sat directly across from Joan of Arc, and his eyes couldn't help but catch a glimpse of the objects on Joan of Arc's side.
"There is nothing else to ask you to come here today, but it is related to the matter that has been raised." Joan of Arc said politely, going straight to the point and pushing the item on his side in front of Zhou Yao.
"What a great help, thank you very much!"
The item that was pushed in front of him was undoubtedly the dragon blood of the fire type, and it was two copies!
Zhou Yao excitedly took the two vials of dragon blood in his hands, and looked at them carefully with the urge to drink them immediately under strong pressure.
But from the outside, dragon blood is nothing special, it is the same bright red color as human blood, but Zhou Yao can feel that the blood contained in the small bottle in front of him contains powerful magic, it is pure and rich energy, and there is a faint trace of hot breath.
"Although I did say that I needed multiple types of fire-type dragon blood, I didn't expect you to take out two copies at once. Really, I'm a little embarrassed to take it. ”
Zhou Yao's joy was mixed with sincere gratitude, but although he said so, there was no trace of wanting to give up in the movements in his hands.
After all, there are two kinds of ah, and the progress of unlocking is completed by one-fifth at once. Although the remaining eight are a headache number, now that they have a good start, Zhou Yao is more confident in completing the unlocking task.
"You're welcome, this is your fair reward for helping us resolve the disappearance. And personally, it's only natural for me to help you. Joan of Arc shook her head, her smile still faint. It's just that the second half of the sentence was her muttering, and Zhou Yao didn't hear it clearly.
"What?"
"No, it's fine. In addition to these two dragon bloods, I also got a piece of news that you will be interested in. Joan of Arc naturally shifted the subject.
"What's the news? Could it be the intelligence of other fire-based dragon blood! ”
Zhou Yao's eyes lit up and he asked urgently.
"Well, in about a month, there will be a monopoly on dragon materials. The details are all here. ”
Joan of Arc handed Zhou Yao another piece of paper with information about the Monopoly Fair.
"I've said it once, but thank you very much!"
After receiving the information of the monopoly, Zhou Yao solemnly thanked him again.
"And then there's one more thing that needs to be said. As for the Hydra, the mastermind behind the disappearance of the owner, there is no useful information gathered for the time being. It can only be determined that the other party's stronghold is not in the central province, and some plan is being carried out secretly. Joan of Arc's gaze was cloudy.
"Really?" Zhou Yao replied in a deep voice.
