Chapter 31: The Smiling Virgin's Crystal Nucleus
Leah wouldn't know or believe that the little black dragon that often rested on Edge's shoulder was actually a real dragon. Even if she already knew that Giroud was not a chameleon, she would never have imagined that Giroud would be a real dragon. There has never been a giant dragon that can turn into a small dragon in history, at most there has been a giant dragon that can turn into a sincere kind.
But they are all god-like beings, and they will not appear in the mortal realm at all. And for human beings, God is just a legend, and no one has ever seen a real God. Ordinary people talk about God, but they are just made up based on power and power.
As for the reason why Giroud can become smaller, it is because of his special features. It learned a lot about the demons from the content recorded in the Moros Blade Reading Space, and transformation was one of the abilities recorded in it. But the more it learns about these incredible things, the more it doubts the truth of this reading space.
The mystery is definitely not simple!
"A magic furnace?"
Giroud had guessed so. Every time it is in the reading space inside the Moros Blade, once it uses its magic power, its magic power will be absorbed by this space. Even if it doesn't work, the mana in its body will slowly drain away. It's doubtful that the lost magic doesn't know where it went.
"It could be that the magic has been condensed somewhere in this pitch-black space, used to store it as a source of power for evolution. ”
Giroud used to think so. But there are many secrets in the Moros Blade itself, and even more so about the reading space within it. No matter what Giroud thought, even if it recalled all the memories of the legacy that Aurus had left for it, it still failed to find any useful information.
Giroud would love to spend the time and energy researching the full mysteries of the Moros Blade, but now that Edge has just arrived in Caanster, there are a lot of things that need special attention, so he has to put them aside first and help Edge solve the problems he faces.
After separating from Leah, Edge exited the city gates and came to an uninhabited forest outside the city. He then sent Giroud back into a dragon and flew to the nearest forest. Giroud gladly accepted, and he just wanted to move his muscles. It may be that its strength has increased a little more recently, and it really can't calm it down if it doesn't fight well.
This hunt for Warcraft was an opportunity.
To be on the safe side, Edge made it fly as high as possible so that the people below could not see them. Lest people see it and exclaim, 'Ah~Dragon!ah~ It's a dragon!God, God~I saw a dragon!' For Agey, who grew up living with Giroud, the dragon was no surprise to me.
How did Giroud go from half a metre to one metre and then from one metre to two metres, then from two metres to three metres, three metres to four metres in size...... He could see these clearly.
After flying for a while, Giroud, who was flying high above the beast, heard the chirping of the beast and told Edge that the area of the forest had been reached.
Edge himself couldn't hear the beast's chirp, only the whirring wind in his ears. But as a magic dragon, Giroud's ears are very sensitive to hearing, and he is a small pair of tailwind ears.
Hearing Giroud's words, Aegie tells him to lower his altitude and be careful not to be seen by bounty hunters or mercenaries in the forest.
A large area under his eyes was filled with a thick layer of light black mist, which was heavy and pale brown. Presumably, this forest is the forest of mist that Leah said.
The Forest of Mist is the closest forest to Caanster City, and is usually visited by many bounty hunters and mercenaries for bounty quests. The task is not to hunt monsters to extract materials, or to find gems or other useful things, such as medicinal herbs, gems, and magic crystal nuclei.
Landing on a quiet and uninhabited mountain, Giroud reverted back to the form of a little demon dragon, lying on Aegie's shoulder and leisurely watching the four directions. Although it has a laid-back appearance, it is actually looking for high-level magical beasts. With the strength of its Demon Dragon, a non-high-level Demon Beast would not be able to fight to the fullest. Its strength has increased compared to before, and it urgently needs a fight, at least a sixth-level demonic beast as an opponent.
Similarly, Age knew that he couldn't always rely on Giroud if he wanted to grow, so he decided to find some slightly low-level monsters alone for combat training. His target is a demonic beast that is set at levels four to five.
The Forest of Mist is usually frequented, and too advanced magical beasts will not exist. The highest-level demonic beast that has ever appeared in the Forest of Mists so far is an eighth-level demonic beast. According to the level of Warcraft, it is a very advanced one. After the ability of the demonic beast reaches the ninth level, it will be transferred to the holy level, and the saint-level demonic beast is only divided into three levels, namely the first level of the holy level, the second level of the holy level, and the third level of the holy level. After the saint-level demonic beast, it is the level of a god-like existence.
At the beginning, Aurus and the four-headed divine dragon that pursued it were god-level demonic beasts, from the heavenly realm. In other words, god-level demonic beasts come from the heavenly realm and do not exist in the mortal world.
Giroud's current strength, if he plays to the extreme, is around the eighth level of demonic beasts. It is not a matter of life and death, and it is generally between level seven and eight. Therefore, in order to achieve the effect of being able to run in the ability without causing too much of a sensation, the sixth-level Warcraft is the most suitable for its combat training.
According to common sense, the quieter the place in the forest, the more advanced the monster is. Because the high-level demonic beasts belong to a minority, since they are a minority, there will naturally be a lot less fight between each other. And even if a bounty hunter or mercenary wants to hunt high-level magical beasts, they need to have a certain ability.
Giroud's foreknowledge of Warcraft is more sensitive than Agey's, after all, it feeds on Warcraft. Now it is also a little hungry, and it is bent on finding a high-level demonic beast to hunt and fill its stomach. Soon under its guidance, Aegie came to a dense forest that was deeper and quieter than the others.
Entering this dense forest, Aegie felt an invisible sense of oppression, as if a poisonous snake was staring at him from behind, ready to burst out to eat him. As the feeling of oppression grew heavier, a sense of fear arose in his heart. Although he didn't think he needed to be scared at all, he was still worried that something would happen and he had to be extremely cautious.
"Here we go!"
Giroud had already been sure that this dense forest area was inhabited by high-level magical beasts, and as soon as he sensed the wind and grass, he told Edge. Just now it heard a rustling sound behind it, and knew it was the sound of the dense forest grass and trees being pressed against something. It can be sure that the high-level magical beasts entrenched here have appeared!
"Whoa!"
"Be careful!"
Giroud suddenly let out a loud shout, and Aegie immediately rolled to the side to dodge. At this moment, a vine quickly stretched out from behind them, probably the attack move of some kind of demonic beast in this dense forest.
"Oh~ It's a smiling purple calyx!"
Edge rolled out of the side, dodging the attacking vines, Giroud, who still looked like a little demon dragon, couldn't help but exclaim when he saw the monster sweeping out from behind.
The swiftly swept beast was a three-meter-tall flower, which Giroud recognized as a rare smiling purple calyx. The smiling purple calyx is a species of tree beast that usually bears lavender, blue-purple, or blue-white flowers. The flower resembles a trumpet, with serrated teeth inside, which can swallow a person whole.
The smiling purple calyx is not ferocious, but it has a very strong sense of self-preservation, and once something enters its territory, it will become even more ferocious than a man-eating flower. It eats people not as food, but as nourishment for itself.
The smiling purple calyx is an extremely rare tree beast. In the bounty task, as long as the level of the smiling purple calyx is level 6 or above, the bounty reward of its magic crystal core can reach tens of thousands of gold coins. The reason why it has such a high reward is because of its magic crystal nucleus's highly effective healing ability.
The smiling purple calyx with its highly effective healing power is known as the "Lady of Smiles". Insert or fuse the Crystal Nucleus into a weapon, and the weapon will receive a massive healing effect.
Just imagine, a weapon can heal itself when attacking, isn't it an artifact?
Giroud relayed information about the smiling violet to Age, who grinned in excitement when he learned about it. If you can hunt the smiling purple calyx in front of you and obtain its magic crystal nucleus, it will really be a big profit. And the smiling purple calyx in front of him has a seventh-level strength, which means that its magic crystal core is worth at least more than 10,000 gold coins!
How can you let go of the gold coins here? Age and Giroud decided together to put aside their original idea of training for battle, and do their best to hunt the smiling purple calyx in front of them, and never let it escape!
That's more than 10,000 gold coins!
