Chapter 11: Dragon's Tide
The situation developed completely beyond Richard's expectations. The news of "Ragnarok" made him feel dizzy and swaying, and he couldn't find the north at all.
"The reason why I don't have enough manpower is also because the catastrophe is approaching, and there are too many things to arrange. Some words are spoken, I am not afraid of Richard's little brother, you jokes, the more turbulent the world, the better the business of the devil. Not only is there a large number of suitable souls in need of the Ninefold Demon Realm, but even Heavenly Mountain is already interested in coming into contact with me. ”
Flame Demon Dinor began to brag about himself again.
"Are you interested in joining this industry, little brother Arthur, you have lost your master, and it is difficult to develop on the side of the Dark Moon Wizard Society. These elm heads are particularly important to the inheritance relationship, and it is difficult to have good results if you switch to others. Besides, the two giant bears in violent armor around you are also the root seedlings of trouble......"
It had a pair of snake eyes, and it had already caught a glimpse of Xiong Da Xiong Er, and the ill-intentioned in his eyes made the two stupid bears tremble.
Dyna, though he spoke kindly, was now "magnificent" and a giant as tall as a skyscraper. The appearance of its bat wings, bull head, snake scales, and sheep's horns is even more terrifying, and it is not a good thing to mess with at first glance.
Of course, the premise is that it must not speak, and the chatter can counteract all the compulsion.
"Once you join, I can arrange for you to join the Flame Brotherhood, an organization on par with the Wizards of the Dark Moon. They have made peace with the kingdom of Solan and are powerful. The people of the Flame Brotherhood are more bold, unlike the dead-headed wizards of the Dark Moon. It's easy to make a name for yourself, it's ......"
This five-five-three-thick demon snapped his fingers in mid-air and calculated for Richard.
"If you don't like Solan's climate, there's another place for you, and that's the Oak Room in Eyre. Those half-elves have a good temper and treat their families equally. Brother Arthur, if you're looking for a partner, this is a good choice, and there are a lot of pretty little girls there. They were very ...... and welcoming."
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
The topic in front of him became more and more bizarre, and Richard immediately interrupted it, he was not gullible enough to "talk to strangers for a few words, and just mess with it".
"Uncle Dana, these are still long-term considerations, and I am still in a wait-and-see state......"
"Wait and see, what do you mean by wait and see! Brother Arthur, the opportunity is fleeting. Now that I can offer such favorable terms, it is because the situation is still scorching. In a few years, even if I take care of you again, it will not be like this. Flame Demon Dana suddenly broke out in pain, and almost engraved the word "sincerity" on his face.
"You don't know how chaotic the physical world is right now! Just this month, a famous evil god, Stolas, the god of death, has revived! I heard that it has also had the audacity to reach out to the wasteland city of Kampas, one of the cities of the Holy Light. Under the noses of the enemy, he actually made a matter of cultivating apostles!"
"Not to mention that far away, even the land under your feet and I is quite unstable. A famous evil dragon from ancient times, but it has recently been revived. For some reason, it fell in love with this place. He released a word about what kind of dragon kingdom he wanted to build in the 'Sunset Wasteland'. ”
"These big guys are racing against time, do you think you can still be so hesitant?"
The minotaur waved his hand directly, and the scaly claw suddenly added a glowing piece of paper.
"Come on, come on, sign it first, and you and I will be a family in the future. The promising profession of Soul Hunter awaits you and me to create a future together. ”
Richard looked up at the piece of paper in his hand, which was sometimes flaming, and felt that it was as big as a wall, and its head shook like a rattle.
The tone of the person in front of him reminded him of a terrifying profession on the earth in his previous life - pyramid schemes.
It was the content of its words that made him pay more attention than its advice.
"Uncle Dana, you said that there is a dragon revived here, and what kind of dragon kingdom do you want to build?"
"Isn't it, it was three months ago. That's why I'm so urgent. Something big is going on here, and I haven't even built a stronghold. This critical moment is the golden age of soul hunting. It will take some time for the World Tree to wither, and all sides are hoarding troops. Flame Demon Dana sighed again, and then waved the contract in his hand, "You have to think again, such favorable conditions will not exist in the future." ”
Richard then shook his head like a rattle.
"You said you, why are you so brainless. Uncle Dana in the sky was angry, "Those old-fashioned old guys of the Dark Moon Wizard Guild are really guilty, and even you, a child, have been brainwashed. You remember, you must keep up with the times, keep up with the times......"
"If you talk to someone for a few words, you will sell yourself, such a person will only be eliminated by the times, right?"
"What do you mean, don't believe me? Hehe, little brother Arthur, although the devil can't say that it is above board, but in terms of credibility, it is not blown, and the gods of light are not as good as me! Besides, this is a soul contract, which is valid for you and me. The above terms can be explained one by one. ”
"It's all said, think about it in the long run......"
......
After a long period of haggling, Richard finally agreed.
He took Xiong Daxiong Er to dismantle the shipwreck in front of him, and finally found a strange humanoid statue on the keel of the ship. Its hidden location is really ingenious. It was actually inlaid in the wood that was the keel, and it was tightly fitted. Even if you hit the nearby wood, you can't hear the reverberation.
The statue is life-tall and is carved out of pure white marble. But the strange thing is that when it is placed in the dark, it has always been surrounded by a layer of holy white light on its body. Richard felt at ease and at ease by the light, just as he had been in front of the statues of the gods of light when he had been in church.
But the person portrayed in the statue is unexpectedly obscene.
He looked like a middle-aged man, dressed in a silk robe, and had rings on his hands and ten fingers. The chubby face, with a philistine and sly smile, looked like a profiteer. Richard unexpectedly discovered that the person portrayed on the statue unexpectedly matched the depiction of Dana in the story.
"Uncle Dana, is this the statue you are talking about?" Richard lifted the statue and walked out of the scattered ruins of the shipwreck.
The fire demon in the sky found the statue and couldn't help himself with joy.
"That's it, that's it. Brother Arthur, you take it to Dagger Valley, there are surprises waiting for you. And the matter of joining us, I really don't think about it anymore......"
"Ahem, I'll talk about it later, I'll talk about it later......"
Richard perfunctorily lifted the statue aside, pulled out a map-like object in his arms, and laughed silly.
Looking at the reward for his task, the Divine Eye Map, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the huge minotaur demon that was fading away in the sky, and was very surprised.
Is this profiteer in front of him really the famous "Blue Dyna"?
