Chapter 20: New Dependents
Hathaway picked up two sleek and soft parasitic seeds, as if she was not holding two unknown things from the evil black dragon, but the blood of an ancient ancestor, a prayer for the Holy Spirit to come to life, and even a chance to resurrect her parents and grandfather!
Use it! Trust that black dragon, at least he doesn't have to pay right now like that damn lord.
Hathaway clenched the hilt of her sword, and a cold tingling sensation rushed to her mind from her arm, as if she had been splashed with a basin of cold water on her head on a cold winter day, "Can't be impulsive, can't be impulsive!"
Hathaway's expression was complicated, such a strong sense of temptation, she felt like she had fallen headlong into a demon's trap.
......
After Lin Ze handed over the parasitic seed, he did not leave directly, but turned around in the sky and turned back from the other direction.
There are a total of three dependents who satisfy the black dragon, except for the talented Hathaway, Lin Ze is much more simple and rude to the other two. The middle-aged blacksmith was implanted with parasitic seeds in his sleep, and he became a family member of the black dragon in a daze. The young hunter who sensed the junior high school was woken up by Lin Ze maliciously and forcibly planted the seed.
The conversion process between the two was extremely smooth, the faith was indifferent, Lin Ze did not need to compete with the gods for souls, and when the parasitic seeds successfully replaced the heart function, the blacksmith and the young hunter were completely returned to Lin Ze.
"Sir. "The young hunter Alan fell to his knees on one knee, the faint starlight scattered among the woodland, and after the essence was reversed, Alan had a vague sense of shadow even if he did nothing.
"For the next three days, monitor and protect Hathaway, but don't let her find out. "Eren has inherited the stealth ability from Lin Ze's black dragon bloodline, and his ability to find shadows and hide is as good as instinct.
Blacksmith Smith inherited the gift of strength, and his tendons were more robust and smooth, and his bronzed muscles seemed to sparkle in the night.
Lin Ze suddenly looked forward to what abilities Hathaway would gain with the blessing of the parasitic seed.
......
"So you're also a dependant of a gentleman?" Hathaway, who became a dependent, looked sad, but unfortunately mixed with relief, "Have you ever wondered what would happen to Aunt Lisa if something happened to you?"
"If I don't become a dependent, maybe in a while my mother will die at the hands of the tax collector. With a silent squeeze, Alan squatted on a branch and continued to sort out the arrows on his body.
It had been two days since Lin Ze left the village, and the hunting team of the two encountered a wandering wolverine with berserk potential in the mountains and forests, and after a battle, the soldiers divided into two ways and the other few people returned to the village first, and the stronger Hathaway and Alan lured away the enraged wolverine to prevent it from retaliating against the village, and it was in this process that Hathaway used parasitic seeds to convert herself into dependents.
Alan was tidying up herself, and Hathaway was silently staring at the white flame symbol that appeared on the back of her hand, not knowing what she was thinking, the power awakened from the depths of her blood was still surging, and she felt the powerful power that her grandfather longed for all her life, and the girl fell silent.
"Let's go, go to the gentleman, and hope he has a way to save our pioneer village. ”
The sun on the horizon was already half sinking under the ridge, and the emotional Hathaway simply did not stop and planned to go directly to the dragon's lair to find the gentleman who gave power.
Dragon's Lair.
The sleeping Lin Ze woke up the moment the parasitic seed was successfully transformed, and the black dragon, which had been silent underground for five years, let out an excited roar in the lair, and moved several huge stone slabs from the corner of the dragon's lair with a technique that was seriously inconsistent with that of a dragon.
He has been preparing for the development of the village for a while, and in Lin Ze's opinion, there are mainly a few things that block the development of the village.
One is the grain of the winter and the seeds of the following year, and the second is the greedy tax collectors who return for the second time soon after.
The former, in Lin Ze's opinion, a large number of animals in the southern deciduous forest and the abundant fish in the estuary of the river can solve this problem, while the latter is even simpler, wild in the wilderness, the beasts are fierce, who knows if such a group of arrogant and domineering guys will encounter some wandering and violent creatures or a black dragon who is idle and bored?
"Good evening, both of you. Lin Ze squatted in front of a huge stone platform and raised his paw to greet the two drenched dependents, "As the second batch, the dependents who successfully converted in the first round, you are lucky to enjoy the hospitality of this master." ”
To the left of the black dragon is a rough stone furnace made of a single rock, and through the faint light of the fire, large pieces of flesh and several clay shells in the flames can be seen.
Hathaway was a bit of a broken jar after becoming a dependent, and immediately after saying hello, she asked her master, "Please tell me how I can save my villager." ”
"Villagers, this problem is easy to solve. A nimble dragon's front paws tapped lightly on the stone platform, Lin Ze raised his head and glanced at the glowing chaotic and evil knowledge on the wall, and said softly in a god-like tone: "The problems of Winterfall and Karon are easy to solve, but if I give you a solution, what do you use to convince and implement the solution? After all, everyone is not my dependent, and they will not be obedient to me." ”
Hathaway was silent, she had proposed to move when Caron's tax collector came to open up the village to register last year, but before she could find a new village address, the proposal was blocked by a group of people in the village who read it as old qualifications and wrote old immortals.
When my grandfather was young, he led the villagers to resist the beast tide that flooded at the beginning of spring every year, and even when he was old and weak, he still had a lot of influence, so did Hathaway have such an influence?
Not only that, but Chloe, the previous hunting team, had always wanted to facilitate the marriage of Hathaway and his son, so that he could control the pioneer village by marriage.
"You can't help it!"
The dragon's head with sharp short horns twisted and distorted to make a pompous expression, "Hathaway, Hathaway, you really disappointed me, such an adult can't even serve the public, so you want to make your grandfather angry." ”
The girl remained silent, her beautiful blue eyes staring at the stone platform, as if there was a solution to the problem.
"Look at the slate at your feet, and then transcribe some of the things on the wall, and I think you'll have a way. ”
The maiden is as good as a stream, and the ostrich lays out the stone slab and studies it carefully.
"It can't be!"
The black dragon's movement of turning the stove froze slightly, and carefully put the rough version of the flower chicken in his hand, Lin Ze heard the girl shout in a three-viewed, broken tone: "Sir, you can't do this! The unbelievers will perish our souls, and believing in false gods will make us receive the strangulation of the church! Innocent villagers. Push to death!"
"So, Hathaway, what do you want to express? Is my method not good? Is there a problem with letting you carry out the reform of the pioneer village in the name of the gods? Or do you also like to go with the flow of existence and death?" Hathaway's eyes saw Lin Ze in high spirits, as if he wanted to rush into the village and kill.
The dependents girl snorted, and the naked murderous desire in Mr. Black Dragon's eyes was like a basin of cold water splashed on her face, making her sober up instantly.
"No, sir. Hathaway stood and bent over, "I will act according to your will, if there is any objection...... I will use the power of the bloodline to convince them. ”
Lin Ze was very satisfied that the stubborn Hathaway could put himself in the position that his dependents should have, "Go and transcribe what you need, and I'll do a short training for you at dinner." ”
