Chapter 53: Warming Up

"Ah, Salian, I don't think this task is too important. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" The cat-eared girl asked his lord and teacher suspiciously.

"Why doesn't it matter! The famous book "The Art of War" makes it very clear that you must maintain a reliable reserve no matter what the situation, and you are my most intimate reserve force, you know?"

"Well, I don't know much about that, just what you say. ”

"Also, Hilda, you have to stay with Aphroa, I may not be able to take care of her during the scuffle tomorrow. ”

The cat-eared girl and the little black dragon girl glanced at each other, only to see Hilda smile slyly, while Aphroa did not see any change in expression.

After the discussion was settled, everyone also withdrew from the secret passage and joined up with the little prince of the Stone Spirit Clan and Miss Shenek, who was protecting him. Salian let Yulia take care of the little one for a while, and mentioned the arrangements with Miss SchΓΆnek, and finally he spoke.

"Dear Lorana Ise, the person I am most assured of is you, and you will remind me of any mistakes tomorrow. ”

"Of course, Salian, I'll be sure to keep an eye on everything! ”

"Well, then please!"

Although Salian appeared confident, he needed to be well prepared, and he asked the prince of the Stone Spirit to find them a drier and more secluded place in the cave to set up camp. Tomorrow is bound to be a day full of thrills, so you need to get some sleep tonight.

At the same time, Salian is the earl of the border district, and naturally enjoys the privilege of hugging left and right when sleeping. Especially today, all five beautiful girls gathered around him to share the bed with him, and if I want to say why, it is because none of them carried a pillow, and they all took Salian as their own cushion. His left and right arms are occupied by Yulia and Teresa, and his two legs are those of Lorana Ise and Aphroa, and at the end of his stomach is Hilda. Such a rotten style was deeply despised by the little prince of the Shiling Clan, who was lying on the side.

The next morning, after being crushed and sore all over, but refreshed, Salian carefully removed the objects on his body, and got up to reorganize the thoughts in his mind, thinking that the opponent he encountered this time might be stronger than originally estimated.

He believes that the information he received yesterday shows that it will be very difficult to completely annihilate this group of dragon-slaying gangs. They were obviously prepared, and since they had all thought of arranging such a huge magic array, they must be fully prepared for all kinds of unexpected events. It is also possible that the information they received from the circle expert yesterday was incomplete, and they may have other plans to deal with a real dragon. But now he can't catch a live mouth, the loss of a person may be an accident, and the loss of another leader will definitely change the strategy of this group, but it will make a mess. Sure enough, after a night's rest, Salian's thinking became clearer. He thought silently for about ten minutes, and finally made up his mind.

Salian glanced at the little one of the Stone Spirit Clan, who was still asleep, and gently woke up the girls.

"Let's get ready! The Adventurers' Guild in Constance is really unreliable, I must complain to them when I go back, the strength of the opponent is obviously stronger than described in the mission. I don't think we can catch them all, so let's continue to use pseudonyms!

He didn't know at this time that the Adventurers Association in Konstanz was not wrong, it was only him who was wrong.

"Brother, why did you suddenly become less confident after sleeping all night! Are you a little dizzy after sleeping too much, I'll make you some ice water to refresh yourself?!"

Salian said to Yulia as she put on a wig, a fake beard, and a fake nose that turned into Meier.

"I'm cautious and thoughtful! It's not for nothing that people call me 'calm Salian.' ”

This sentence immediately attracted several foolish glances, but Salion's magical defense was very high, and he did not waver in the slightest.

Although most of the girls thought it was redundant, they still started to dress up, and they were all masters of makeup anyway. Half an hour later, a squad of pure adventurers appeared.

We won't go into details about the outfits of the others. Miss SchΓΆnek, who had never participated in such role-playing games as Salian, dressed herself as a traveling swordswoman and called herself Tales. Like Yulia, she also uses the mirror magic of the water system to transform her face into her mother's youthful appearance, which is sure to be the most convenient way to disguise, making good use of the concept of time difference. The rest of Aphroa did not disguise, originally her main role was not the adventurer but the Count of the Frontier himself, and now Salian's arrangement made her even more relevant.

"Aphroa and Hilda, stay in the distance, and clean up the battlefield for me when the time comes. ”

Last but not least, that is to solve the problem of the little prince of the Stone Spirit Clan. Because this little guy has already seen the true face of the group, so after discussing with Teresa, Salian decided to let Salian control the brain activity of the little thing first, and then use Teresa's ability to blur his memory, because Salian, who is proficient in torture to extract confessions, is not good at precise control of the brain, and then Teresa's spiritual magic is needed. And although the Stone Spirit Race is also a subhuman race, they don't know how this race is different from the human brain, so it's better for the two to solve it together.

In this way, the young man of the Stone Spirit Clan was used as a guinea pig for experiments by Salian and Teresa in his sleep, and when he woke up from rubbing his eyes with a headache, he found a handsome young mercenary with long black and gray hair and a short beard standing in front of him. Maybe it was because he was too tired yesterday, he only remembered that this man promised to help him defeat the bad guys and save his people, but he couldn't remember the name.

"Your Royal Highness, you are awake. ”

The little thing patted his little head with his hand and asked, "Well, I'm sorry, what's your name, I was so tired yesterday that I forgot your name." ”

"It's all right, noble prince. Below is the Karakuri Mercenary, didn't we negotiate with you yesterday and your friends will drive out the villains who enslaved you and save your father and your people. In return, you will help to smelt some containers underneath. ”

"Oh, it seems like yes, we went to see what the bad guys were building yesterday, right?"

"It's true, Your Highness. ”

Then Salian reintroduced the other girls to the little one of the Stone Spirit Clan, and under his leadership, they went through the secret passage to the top of the cliff where they could observe the front hall of the Lime Kingdom, and found that the place had been completely completed, and the Stone Spirit Clan had disappeared, so the little one looked very anxious.

"Oh, those scoundrels have taken my father and my people away, and they must be going to eat them!"

"Don't be anxious, Your Highness! First of all, the Shiling clan should have no nutritional value, and it is not certain whether they are delicious or not. Besides, you see, those caves on the opposite stone wall, I think that they were originally your place of residence, right? I guess your people are still locked up there, if you don't feel at ease, you can take a closer look. ”

"How am I going to get there, there are those bad guys everywhere!"

"You don't have to worry, you don't have to walk past to see it now. ”

As he spoke, Salian took out a strange cylinder from his bosom and handed it to the prince of the Stone Spirit Clan, telling him to look in the direction of the rock wall from the side of the stick.

"Wow, mercenary Myer, you're a good thing, I saw it, everyone is really in there!

"Haha, this gadget is not a magic prop, its core component is made from the kind of stone you collect every day, called the 'Calcite Remote Optical Imaging Device'. Salian replied with a smile.

"Oh, I see, I don't know how Lord Crystal Dragon uses these calcite, I'm going to talk to her today. Oh, how can I not find my father!"

"Your father is their most important captive, and he must be held in solitary confinement, rest assured, he will not be in danger!"

Naturally, Salian could not explain to this dutiful son that his father was controlled by these thieves, because he himself wanted to take advantage of this, but fortunately, there was no guilt in Sally's peace of mind, all for the good of the empire.

And since the mercenary Meier did let him see his own people just now, the little prince now believed what Meier said. Still, he asked a little anxiously.

"So what are we going to do now, just keep waiting?"

"Of course not, I'm waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to be absolutely sure, it depends on when your crystal dragon lord appears!"

"But I remember yesterday that you said that you can destroy these bad guys without the help of Lord Crystal Dragon!"

Salian wondered why Teresa had forgotten to remove it when she used the fuzzy memory magic just now, and she must be criticized and educated when she returned.

"Haha, I really don't need her help, I just need to show up, this is the right time. ”

"Oh, okay, then I'm going to stay here?"

"No, let's go back to the place where you traded with the Crystal Dragon every time and ambush it, because these people will never let the Crystal Dragon see this strange structure!"

He wouldn't tell the little guy what the forbidden magic array was for, and Salian would also rely on it to deal with the crystal dragon, and it was impossible for the prince of the Stone Spirit Clan to ruin his plans.

Now that it was confirmed that the group had completed their preparations, there was no point in them staying here, and they quickly exited the secret passage again, returning to the place where they had been camping and lurking.

Lying in ambush in the middle of a bunch of beautiful girls, Salian has never been more excited to go out on an adventure, because this time he has to deal with a real adult dragon. And unlike the red dragon, the black dragon, the golden dragon, and the silver dragon, the crystal dragon is very rare on the continent as a rare dragon race, and they also master the most elusive space-time magic, since the adventurer guild has recorded, there have only been three records of successful capture of the crystal dragon. Therefore, Salian's plan to capture the crystal dragon through the hands of this group of villains who have been sentenced to death by him has to be said to be really ingenious, of course, the risk is also very large, and one careless will face the situation of multiple enemies. But he will never back down!
