Chapter 40: The City of the Dead (11) Another Secret

"Hmm, was the old man saved by you?" said the old man, turning over to look at us. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"What shall we call you, old man?" asked him.

"My name is Nikolai, and the necromancer is also. The old man named Nikolai struggled to sit up, and Alan hurried to help him.

"You don't seem to welcome outsiders here, so you're arranging a lot of undead monsters here, am I right?" I asked him next to me.

"Hmph, that's right, I don't want to see anyone in the outside world now, there are many hypocritical and cunning people in the world, and people who are greedy for power and power abound, just like this kind of villain, plotting for my Phantom Dragon Stone, and finally ending up like this. Nikolai pointed to Barlow, a dwarf man who had fallen on the high platform. I walked over to check on Barlow, but as soon as my hand touched him, his body turned into powder, and a gust of wind blew away a lot of his "remains".

"That's what happened to the most vicious people, ahem, please hand me my Phantom Dragon Stone and cane. Nikolai said, sitting on the ground.

"Chris—" Neil stopped at me, as if trying to stop me.

I waved at him not to get too nervous, and I took a few more steps, picking up the high-grade Phantom Dragon Stone and Skull Staff with a black sheen and handing them to Nikolai's hand.

"Thank you, young man. Nikolai opened the skull on the skull staff, put the phantom dragon stone inside, and then raised the staff and said, "Mary, come here!"

The eyes of the skeleton on the skeletal cane flashed again, but it seemed to be brighter and brighter than before, only to hear a sound under the high platform, and then we reached Emma's exclamation, and after a while, a movable skeleton ran up the high platform, this should be the skeleton that followed Nikolai at the beginning, why did it name it "Mary", other skeletons don't seem to have this treatment?

As I was thinking, Nikolai pointed to the skeleton and said, "This is my wife Mary, I can't bear to bury her in the ground for a long time, I want her to be by my side, please forgive me!"

Good guy, it's actually an old man who loves his wife to death, but it's too heavy, isn't it? With a skeleton every day, and sleeping in the same bed at night? Well, I can't even think about it. I looked at the others again, and I was also dumbfounded, but Anne, covering her mouth with both hands, looked very moved, probably moved by his rare love, she is really a sensual person!

"Mary, Fugo stood up. Nikolai said to the skeleton standing next to him, and then the skeleton carefully helped Nikolai up, and then, seeing it put its legs together and bend its knees, it turned into the shape of a chair, and Nikolai was not polite, and sat on the skull chair.

The world is so big, there are really all kinds of people, I sighed secretly, began to lead the topic to the right track, and asked Nikolai: "My eldest brother Roy, is it true that the tiger warrior with a big sword on his back has never been here?"

"Truly, no, I never lie, I never lie, I have been here, I have not been here, you have not been here, you are the only living person I have ever seen these days. ”

At this time, Bard, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but interject next to him: "Sir, I have a request, can you stop communicating with us in ancient dialects, I'm so tired of listening!"

Nikolai was stunned for about ten seconds, then nodded and said: "Okay, just follow your way, the old man doesn't want to have a generation gap with you, so as not to have difficulties in communication." ”

"Poof~" I almost didn't recite it in one breath next to me, it turns out that he can speak modern words, and he has tortured us for so long!

"It seems that the group of Seven Dead Apostles really came here to spread false news to lure us into the City of the Dead, and then tried to catch us and lure Brother Roy over, if it wasn't for Jack and Jill coming over to help today, they would have succeeded a long time ago!" Neil didn't seem to be affected, and said to himself on the side, it seems that for him, a scholar, communicating in ancient dialect is not a problem at all.

"Mr. Nikolai, how old are you?" asked Nikolai with a sudden turn.

"Old decay will be 100 years old in a year, young man. Nikolai replied.

"Do you know where the Ultimate Earth Dragon Stone is?" Neil opened his mouth to ask him again, and I couldn't help but look at Neil in amazement like everyone else, what did he do with this question?

"Hmph, very few people know the whereabouts of the Ultimate Earth Dragon Stone, and most of the people who know it are hearsay, but today you saved the life of the old man, and the old man is the descendant of the Knicks..."

"What, you are a descendant of the ancient archmage Niks?" we all looked at the old man in front of us with wide eyes, we didn't expect him to be the descendant of the former ancient archmage Niks, it was really unbelievable. (See Chapter 12 for an introduction to the Knicks.)

"Yes, the old ancestor is Nix, because he has refined and extracted the ultimate dragon stones of the seven attributes, but the magic of these dragon stones is too strong, and it can be said to be the supreme treasure in the world, so it has also attracted the covetousness of countless ill-intentioned people, and even caused a tragedy. Eventually, he decided to seal the dragonstones all over the continent and leave them to his chosen guardians to protect the dragonstones, which could be people trusted by the Nicks and their descendants, as well as spirit beasts, behemoths, or monsters, so as to prevent those with the wrong heart from doing anything bad with the ultimate dragonstone..."Nikolai said slowly.

"Do you know where the Ultimate Dragonstones are?" Neil continued to ask Old Man Nikolai.

"There have been some legends left within the old family, which have been passed down from generation to generation by ancient ancestors, but only the approximate location and guardians of several of these dragonstones are told, and the rest have been lost. ”

"What kind of legend is it?" we all began to wonder.

"Legend has it that the Ultimate Fire Dragonstone is hidden in the volcanic area, guarded by a member of the Dragon Clan, the Ultimate Wind Dragonstone is hidden near the Black Forest and is kept by a human, as for the Ultimate Earth Dragonstone... It's supposed to be hiding in a cave in the desert, and the guardian there is a giant serpent..."

"Giant snake?" Anne and Allen's faces changed.

"Yes, it's a giant snake, Nix doesn't know what method he used to make it surrender to himself, so that it can guard the ultimate earth dragon stone there, legend has it that this giant snake is not only huge, thick skin, but also full of fangs, and what is even more terrifying is that it will also petrify curses, any creature will be petrified as long as it sees its eyes, all of these contents are passed down from the mouths of ancient ancestors, so no one can personally confirm whether this rumor is true or not. ”

"Is snake venom, how venomous? How venomous is it?" said Bard, who was standing on the side, suddenly asked Old Man Nikolai.

"It was an ancient serpent, and I believe that if it had been bitten by its teeth, if it had not been detoxified by a priest or above clergy using the 'Healing Technique?' or a herbalist using a top-grade antidote, the person would have died in at most 1 minute. Although corpse venom is slower than snake venom, it only takes about half a day for infected people to transform into zombies. ”

"Really?" Bard looked down and said nothing, as if thinking about something.

As for me, I pulled Neil aside and asked him in a low voice, "How do you ask where the Peer-Grade Earth Dragon Stone is doing?"

"I think that since Principal Axes and their organization have stolen the Ultimate Wind Dragonstone, they will definitely have a covetous heart for other Ultimate Dragonstones, just like the old man Nikolai said, everyone will want more powerful power, especially their so-called 'big ambition' organization, it must be delusional to get all the dragonstones and get the most powerful power. And the eldest brother has not heard any news since he stole the Ultimate Wind Dragon Stone and came to Pazm Province, and there is no clue about his whereabouts at the checkpoints set up at the border of various provinces, I heard rumors that the Ultimate Earth Dragon Stone is in this Pazm Province, but I don't know the specific location, so I was wondering if he is still looking for the Ultimate Earth Dragon Stone here. Later, I secretly inquired about the clues of the location of the Ultimate Earth Dragon Stone, including the merchants and travelers of the Oasis, and even the head of the Caro Regiment, he has such a good intelligence network, I have asked about it, but I found nothing! I didn't expect to meet Old Man Nikolai today, and he actually hit the big luck! I guess he is so old that he should know a lot of things, but I didn't expect him to be a descendant of the Nix, so I really asked the right question! I think as long as we go to find the Ultimate Earth Dragon Stone, we will definitely be able to find the whereabouts of the eldest brother, no, maybe the eldest brother will come to find us at that time!" Neil said excitedly.

"That's right, that's it! The next destination is the Earth Dragon Stone Mine Cave, no matter what kind of giant snake it is, we will definitely be able to defeat it in the end, find the ultimate Earth Dragon Stone and then find the big brother!"
