Chapter Twenty-Four: The Final Reward of the City of a Thousand Wishes

"I just want to know what the hell we're here for!" said Naxi, who had plucked up his courage, to hold back his heart. The adventure team had already been reduced by more than half, and he didn't want to die in the realm of a thousand wishes like this.

Faced with Naxi's question, Lidona didn't answer immediately, she asked rhetorically, "Do you really want to know?"

Seeing that Lidona was still in that emotionless tone, Naxi suddenly became angry: "That's right! The natural curiosity of a magician compels me to know the truth of everything. What the hell are we here for? What is there in this hellish place that makes you so desperate! And what is your true identity! After the Shadow Wolf siege retreated, I heard the words of you and Dulles clearly!"

Driven by courage, Naxi voiced his doubts in one breath.

He soon regretted his uprightness, because there were things that could have killed him if he had said them, such as overhearing the conversation between Dulles and Lidona.

Lidona's question surprised Lidona a little, she didn't expect that her conversation with Dulles that day would be overheard by Naxi. After a long silence, Lidona sighed slightly and said leisurely, "You really want to know everything about everything?"

I've never seen Ice Beauty Lidona have such an expression, and that faint resentment almost makes Naxi unable to hold on. But in the end, he still stuck to his original intention and did not relent: "Yes, as a member of the adventure team, I feel that I need to know everything I can know. ”

Naxi's non-deniable tone made Lidona not know what to say, she knew that some things could not be said in a word.

"It's wonderful! Humans are still so filthy and despicable! They can deceive their comrades who are born and die for the sake of profit. This kind of shoddy behavior will not change no matter how many years have passed. Nubis grinned, "Dad, it turns out that this poor rookie mage doesn't know what the Thousand Wishes Realm is, what a poor person." ”

"Shut up!" Lidona drank Nubis, who interjected, she couldn't let the damn elf stir up Nasi's relationship with her.

"Huh. Nubis pretended to be scared, "Do you want to kill people and kill people, and don't want this poor rookie mage to know what he should know?"

Lidona didn't think about it and threw the elf to the ground, and Nubis screamed again.

She knew very well that the damn elf had planted the seeds of doubt between Naxi and herself, and Naxi would only be half-convinced of whatever she said.

"Well, which question do you want me to answer first. Lidona said slowly.

Naxi glanced at Nubis, who was still rolling on the ground, and couldn't help but feel a little pimple in his heart: "Are you a dragon?"

"Yes and no. Lidona replied dryly.

Naxi didn't react for a while: "Yes, it's not?"

Lidona put away her sword, then sighed and said, "My father is human, but my mother is the dragon of Eternal Dragon City. ”

Lidona's answer almost made Naxi's jaw drop, he didn't expect that there really was a combination of dragons and humans in the world.

Naxi stammered, "You... You're a dragonborn, how is it possible, how can you do it. ”

Although he had seen this introduction in the book and thought it was just a term made up by those sore novelists, he didn't think it really existed, and he was still standing in front of him.

Naxi's second question left Lidona unsure of how to answer, and she blushed and muttered, "How can I get it... Do you really have to say that?"

Looking at Lidona's crimson face, Naxi's whole body suddenly melted. Lidona, who had always had a cold and frosty expression, changed her shy demeanor, and this strong contrast almost made Naxi unable to hold it. Naxi felt that Lidona's expression was so cute at the moment that he couldn't help but want to hug it.

It was not easy to hold back the throbbing of youth, and Naxi also found that the question he said casually was a little abrupt: "Okay, I shouldn't ask this question." What I want to know is, why are we dying in the realm of a thousand wishes full of murderous machines?"

Naxi believes that as the initiator of this team, she absolutely knows the truth that the City of a Thousand Wishes hides Shenyang, forcing the team members to complete this commission desperately.

Just as Lidona was about to speak, the dwarf Gangze suddenly woke up: "Is that all you want to know, stinky boy?" ”

Seeing that the dwarf Gangze had woken up, Naxi didn't care if Lidona had answered the question. He hurriedly rushed forward and helped Gangze who was struggling: "Uncle Gangze, you woke up." ”

Gang Ze pressed the attentive Naxi with one hand, and there was an indescribable complexity in his eyes: "Naxi, do you really want to know so much what we are here for?"

Looking at Gang Ze's strange eyes, Naxi had an urge to deny it, but curiosity forced him to know the truth: "Yes, I want to know." ”

The dwarf struggled to his feet: "A few of us would never come here at the risk of losing our lives at any time for the sake of such a small commission. The Land of a Thousand Wishes is not a good place, there are deadly dangers everywhere, and you have seen the attacks we encountered before. ”

Naxi was silent, in the past few days, he, a rookie, had fully comprehended the power of the Thousand Wishes Realm, and the unheard-of monsters such as the Pit Worm and the Mist Beast took the lives of his three companions in an instant. Now that the party has just passed the test of the Haunting Woodland, there is no telling how many monsters will stand in their way.

After seeing Naxi silent, Gang Ze said slowly: "There is a legend from a long time ago that at the end of the Thousand Wishes Realm, there is a kind god living in the City of Thousand Wishes. He is powerful and omnipotent, and he will not hesitate to grant a wish to anyone who has passed many trials to reach the other side, and allowed them to take the treasures he has in his pile of rare treasures. ”

Of course, Naxi didn't believe such a ridiculous story: "Hey, there are still gods in this place where birds don't? What are you kidding, the church doesn't know how many years there have been no miracles." Do you really think that legend is true, and that's why you are desperate to break in? ”

Seeing Naxi's disbelieving expression, Lidona said slowly, "That's right, I don't believe much in this legend either. But as soon as we walked in and met this guy, we were all convinced. With that, Lidona pointed to the guide elf lying on the ground, "If you don't believe me, ask this damn elf." ”

Nubis, exhausted by the pain, lay motionless on the ground: "Don't ask me, I don't know anything. I'm just a lead in the way!"

Seeing that Nubis was still pretending to be dead, Naxi took two steps forward and stepped on Nubis's left foot: "Tell me, elf, whether what they say is true or not!"

"It hurts, it hurts me!" Nubis, who had just felt better, rolled on the ground in pain again, "let go of your feet, it hurts me to death." Hurry up and let go of your feet, I'll tell you anything. ”

Seeing that Nubis had already begged for mercy, Naxi let go of his foot: "The elf told me if what they said was true, and whether the realm of a thousand wishes inhabited the so-called gods. ”

"Woo, woo, of course it's true, otherwise you think I like to do this sinful errand job!" Nubis, who felt that his fate was bumpy, cried again, "Daddy, where are you, Daddy, where are you, Nubis, I'm so miserable." Bullied again and again by these damn adventurers. Is this what you call the grind, Nubis I don't want to live like this, come back and pick me up, I don't want to live, woo woo......"

Naxi couldn't care about Nubis, who was still crying, and the words of the guide elf had almost confirmed the existence of a god who could grant wishes, and at this moment he began to yearn for the last reward.

The temptation of double commissions is not at all comparable to the final reward in the City of a Thousand Wishes:

Any wish that can be fulfilled plus any treasure in a god's treasury is enough to tempt any king in the world, let alone an ordinary mercenary like Gangze.

"As long as I can live to the end, I can also make a wish?" no one can resist such a temptation, and neither can Naxi.

"Yes, that's right. Dwarf Gangze stood up, "That's why we've found our most reliable companion to break in desperately. ”

Naxi also understood the dwarves' worries, and the final reward was so gluttonous that if he hastily recruited some ill-intentioned adventurers as companions, he might be killed halfway.

"Now that you know everything you want to know, what are you going to do. Lidona said to Naxi.

What could Naxi, who couldn't resist the temptation of a wish, let go of such a good opportunity: "Let's go down together!"

If you can make a wish to that god that you can fulfill three more wishes, then any problem can be solved.

Naxi began to feel that it was possible for him to make a wish he had made as a child.
