"Oh, how much does it cost......"

Hudherr followed. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

"Everything in the world needs to be conserved...... Praise Byrons!!" The shopkeeper closed his eyes and prayed a few words solemnly: "You have received news from me that will save your lives, of course, you should pay the price of your lives, right?"

"Everything in the world needs to be conserved?...... Doug's heart suddenly moved, and after his voice was made low and hoarse and completely out of shape with a slight force in his throat, he took the initiative to ask the hotel owner: "Then if it is the other way around, believers who believe in the god of conservation, well, Byron Ens, can they pay a certain price and obtain something of corresponding value?"

At this moment, the people around seemed to collectively pause, as if the passage of time had suddenly slowed down.

"So to speak. ”

The hotel owner stiffened for a moment and replied with a smile. He smiled gracefully, reminding Doug of West's virtues in formal occasions - a smile that had been trained to be brutally trained, with strict rules on the position of every muscle on his face.

"You just say how much you want. ”

Fifian spoke a little absent-mindedly - the newly acquired information about the functions of the god of conservation surprised her, and also caused a lot of doubts: four hundred years later, humans had already signed an equal contract with the gods, and according to the information they gave, the god of conservation was what she had told Doug before: an idle waste god, who had long ceased to exist in this plane.

"You're so bold, guest from afar. β€œ

The shopkeeper's smile became bright, and after carefully looking at the three of them for a few moments, he closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then suddenly opened his eyes and smiled: "Your lives are priceless treasures...... Let's do it,"

He pulled out a few large crystals from his bosom: "You can just give me something of about the same value as these beautiful treasures in my hand - several lost travelers have already found a way home based on my information, and it is definitely worth it!"

"Really?"

Fifian glanced at him, not quite convinced.

β€œ...... Let me guess. ”

Facing Fifian's skeptical gaze, the hotel owner smiled slightly, and then put away the gem in his hand like lightning and replaced it with a glass of fine wine from nowhere: "Your body is stained with light, and this gentleman's clothes,"

He glanced at Hudhel's clothes, paused, and smiled with white teeth: "It seems that only the Ogenama Empire - well, I prefer to call it the Wright Empire - is produced...... Ladies and gentlemen, do you want to go home?"

"Yes. ”

Fifian's little boy's face smiled: "But we don't have any money." ”

"Huh, no money?"

The hotel owner's voice suddenly became louder, and all the elegance on his face seemed to be shocked by these two words: "Then it's a pity...... I'm a devout believer, and I can't go against my faith. ”

"Hmm...... Is there no other way?"

Hudherr asked slowly.

"Yes. ”

The hotel owner shrugged his shoulders, "There are a lot of opportunities out there, as long as you have the ability, you can get money-"

He took out two transparent crystal balls from under the counter as if by magic: "Come, put your hands up and measure your 'ability'!"

Doug looked over to Fifian, who nodded slightly, and both put their hands up.

Various colors suddenly appeared inside the two crystal balls, but some were rich, some were faint, and after a churn like a fight, the various colors finally stabilized. The one that came into contact with Doug was in the shape of black and red, while Fifian's was an extremely pure red

"Wow!"

The hotel owner stared at the two crystal balls in surprise, and the other people in the bar who were paying attention to them also began to chatter: "The strength of the two of them is really surprising! This gentleman's ability, well, is very suitable for 'working' at night, and this young master, the fire element in your body is almost as pure as a fire dragon!"

H leaned over slowly, stretched out his hand and put it on a crystal ball, waited for a long time, but there was no change at all, he couldn't help but shake his head and let go, and whispering laughter sounded around him.

"Looks like it's just the two of us, old man. ”

Fifian shook his head and sighed, patting Doug on the waist.

Syllable!

A heavy black cloth bag suddenly landed on the bar, opening to reveal a dozen sparkling gems inside, both in color and purity, far surpassing the few that the hotel owner had just played with, and immediately made his eyes sparkle and he couldn't speak.

"People who don't have money, do something for me, these are yours. ”

Behind everyone, Linax @Midnight, who had been listening for a long time, spoke in a young and indifferent voice, startling Doug, and grabbed a hole in his sleeve with his right hand - because it was a false world, he didn't feel anyone approaching at all.

"W-What?"

When Fifian saw Linax's face, his eyes were full of stars again, and he swallowed several times before he calmed down.

"It's very simple, just follow me. ”

Linax lowered his gaze gloomily, didn't even look at them, and with a wave of his hand, the black cloth bag disappeared silently, leaving two medium-sized gems on the table: "This is the deposit." ”

"Okay. ”

The plot was like this, and Fifian agreed very simply. Anyway, even if she refuses, the world will create a whole bunch of 'events' that will eventually force her to accept - that's the rules of the game.

On top of the snow-capped peaks, two white dots, barely noticeable without looking, are speeding through the thick snow. The one in front of him, who had maintained a balanced speed and smooth course, traveled through the snow as gracefully and smoothly as if he were gliding on the water, and the steep cliffs and loose snowdrifts did not affect him, while the one in the back kept jumping from side to side to avoid obstacles, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and looked very laborious.

"Whew-"

Doug exhaled and jumped over a steep rock, finally narrowing the distance to Linax in front of him to a suitable range, and relieving his strength a little. Fifian's little face was red from the cold, but he looked around excitedly, and couldn't be quiet for a while.

"Damn, why does the dragon's wedding have to be held in a place where birds don't?"

He grumbled under his breath. This realistic world gave him a lot of trouble, especially since he was born and raised in the warm and humid inland plains, and he was not used to this kind of alpine snow.

"It's a dragon. ”

Fifian's little hands were warming in his clothes, and he used his chest muscles as a toy to pinch and pinch them: "It's almost a species that stands at the top of the life class, and you have to find a place that can show that you are different!"

Since the 'apology incident', Fifian has begun to be unscrupulous, often doing things to Doug, and after being harassed by that little hand for a long time, Doug has become numb, so he simply treats her as if she doesn't exist and does her own thing.

"I'm afraid that when I get to the top of the mountain, my hands will be too cold to stretch out. ”

He squinted his eyes and looked at the faintly visible dots above the mountain peaks in the distance, and took the time to gather the cloak painted with magic patterns on his body: "Damn, this Linax, can't you make this robe a little warmer?"

"He's already thinking about it. ”

Fifian looked at the magic patterns on his cloak and marveled at their ability to shield the dragon's senses: "It's just that the standards of dragons and humans are a little different, hehe." ”

"You seem to be in a good mood......"

Doug lowered his head and looked at Fifian in his arms and frowned: "You didn't use your mind to think about the next task, if it fails, how will the 'plot' develop?"

Linax's task is very simple, but it is also extremely difficult-Doug and they are asked to use the innate size and intelligence of humans to infiltrate the wedding of the 'dragon god's glass' Lona Saides, and place a small magic circle in the 'boudoir' of this beauty that can be used as a positioning point, so that it can avoid the hindrance of many dragons and go to his lover.

Obviously, this is not a smooth task.

"Don't worry, it won't be so easy to fail. ”

Fifian patted his chest: "After all, this is what really happened...... So there will be no problems and it will happen smoothly. ”

"Have you thought about a question?"

Doug felt that there was something wrong with the 'plot' design, "We just have the right skills for this kind of mission, if we don't have the skills-"

"Please!"

Fifian glared at him with big eyes, a speechless look: "If the team doesn't have such skills, who would dare to venture to the Sea of Sorrows?"

β€œ...... Oh. Doug was stunned.

A signal suddenly came from ahead, and Linax slowly stopped, waiting for Doug and Fifian under the cover of a high bulge of something that didn't know whether it was a rock or a snowdrift.

"I can't go any further. ”

He spoke coldly, glancing at the black dots in front of him that were circling around the peak at high speed: "There is an ancient magic array around the peak, and my magic power will cause alarms. ”

He took out an ancient stone tablet from under his black robe and handed it to Fifian: "This is my invention a long time ago, it can help you enter the ancient magic barrier, I will teach you how to use it-"

"Eye of Cruise!"

Fifian muttered something in a low voice, and the little star that looked at Linax's big eyes full of adoration flashed, and she didn't hear what he was talking aboutβ€”fortunately, this device that could peek into the path of the elements, and she had studied it four hundred years later, and she wouldn't be blind by then.

Not again!

Doug felt a little unhappy when he saw the little girl looking at Linax in a daze, and after snorting secretly, he looked away, squinting his eyes and looking at the peak in the distance.

"Please. ”

After the 'teaching', the genius magic black dragon bowed slightly to the two 'humans' in a gloomy manner: "Please rest assured, I have already arranged the way out, and when we leave from the wedding, I will give you the rest of the remuneration." ”

"Thank you. ”

Doug 'excited' without sincerity, then let Fifian fall on his back, tightened his cloak to cover her, and lowered himself and sprang out nimbly.

Linax's gaze rose as his rapidly departing figure grew, eventually losing its purpose, and fixing on the looming summit building, an affectionate and painful call softly emanating from his mouth, echoing nearby: "Lorna......"

His eyes were melancholy but firm, and under the light of wisdom was a resolute determination: no matter what the cost, he would leave with his favorite Lorna! Those eyes that were as clear as glass were already his soul, his life, and his whole, and once he lost her, everything would immediately lose the meaning of existence......
