Chapter XVI: The Imperial Library
The enemy has the Fire Thunderstone and has destroyed our ship, the orcs are powerless, the elves have suffered a lot of casualties, not to mention the human race, they do not dare to fight at all, and they will not fight for the elves.
I saw that Daphne was refreshed, and walked directly onto the pedal to pass, but the orcs gritted their teeth and did not move after all.
I don't want the princess to be caught, I want to be close to the elves.
I hurriedly jumped over the broken deck and landed on the edge of the deck: "Hey, you destroyed the boat, but I paid the fare, don't you have to pay?"
Daphne looked back in amazement, and the people on the boat froze for their lives. The enemy ships were silent at first, and then burst into laughter. The caller who had been hiding in the shadows was no longer cold, and he was a little amused: "I've seen a lot of wurms in Brad, some of them are six meters long, and their wings are like iron blades, and even they don't dare to provoke me. And you, at first glance, look like a crippled wurm, you haven't grown wings, you just left the island, right? ”
There was another burst of laughter, this group of people is obviously not ordinary people, not from a small place like Roland City, I feel that they are people of great power, and they are not afraid of a mere wurm.
I really look embarrassed, not to mention the mutilated wings, and the forelimbs are short, worse than the most ordinary wurm, and it makes sense for them to look down on them.
However, they insulted the dignity of the dragons, I seemed to have two personalities, one was a human and the other was a dragon, at this time I was undoubtedly a dragon, and the dignity of the dragons did not allow me to continue to be ridiculed by them, so I stepped on the pedal and walked over.
The enemy warrior on the opposite side immediately drew his blade, and the caller became indifferent: "I know that the wurm is a neutral race, and I don't want to kill you, but if you interfere, I'm afraid I will have to kill you." ”
I said you leave the boat behind, and I can consider not killing you.
A cold snort came, and the two teams of warriors rushed straight over. I had already crossed Princess Daphne, who frowned at me and did not speak.
Both teams of warriors are fast, both are trained masters, and their blades are cold and shiny, enough to slash the average wurm.
I also heard the sound of machinery working, apparently some kind of large machine, probably aiming the Fire Thunderstone at me.
Two teams of fighters were already approaching, blades slashing at my thighs. They were a lot shorter than me, and they wanted to cut off my thighs and clean them up slowly.
Dragons can't be hurt by ordinary weapons, but it's also unpleasant to be cut for no reason. I jumped high so that I would not be cut down. And then it fell like a boulder.
The warriors reacted quickly, and they all pointed their blades into the air, and ordinary wurms would definitely be killed if they fell.
The secret caller sneered again: "I don't think you can even fly, right?"
As soon as the words fell, my body also smashed, and I hit those weapons. It stinged slightly, but none of my skin broke, and it blew a few fighters out at once.
With a bang, several soldiers' brains exploded, and their weapons were broken.
Before the rest of the warriors could react, I stretched out my arm and swept it, smashing them with their weapons.
There was a wail at the scene, and the caller reacted quickly, and hurriedly shouted: "Launch the Fire Thunder Stone!"
With two booms, the goblin's catapult came into operation, and several fire thunderstones smashed down on my head and face.
The nearby warriors rushed to run for their lives, and I twisted my neck with my head held high, and then kicked a fire thunderstone back with a flying kick.
The sound of the Fire Thunderstone breaking through the air was loud, and I kicked a few times in succession, and everyone who was kicked by me flew back.
Of course, I didn't hit the boat, but jumped over the boat and fell into the river, and I didn't want to ruin the boat.
The fire and thunder stones that fell into the river exploded, blowing up the fish and shrimp, and the fire was so bright that the ship was illuminated by the firelight, and I finally saw clearly that there were more than a dozen people wearing black armor on the top of the boat, and some of them were holding magic staffs.
The caller was a middle-aged man with a scar on his face and looked very fierce.
His face was full of shock at the moment, and he called the mage to kill me. The magic white light lit up, and I knew they were going to set off a fireball.
It's not that I look down on fireballs, well, I just look down on fireballs, and I'm afraid that fireballs will burn the ship, and that's a pity.
I slammed forward, then jumped on the top of the ship with a kick on the deck, and kicked several mages to death with a single sweep.
The shouter ran for his life with a stream of urine, and Daphne blew a conch below.
Suddenly, the elves' precise arrows flew into the sky, destroying the enemies on the ship one by one.
The orcs also stepped on the pedals and rushed up to fight, but in half a minute, the enemies on this ship were dead, and the rest were captured alive by the orcs, which was not challenging at all.
The caller was also arrested, and when Daphne and the elves were interrogating him, he broke the jar and scolded: "You damn elf, my master will kill you sooner or later, damn it!"
A minotaur directly pierced him with his horns, which was rude.
I didn't see much interest, the only thing interested me here was Devany.
It was time for her to repay the favor, so I moistened my throat and pretended not to care and sat on the third deck to blow the wind and rest, waiting for her to come and thank her.
As a result, she didn't come after waiting for a long time, but the orcs came to call her brother. Out of the corner of my eye, Daphne and the elves were pacifying the Terrans and getting them aboard.
What a kind elf, I'll just wait a little longer.
After waiting for another long time, she finally came, alone, and as soon as she got close to me, she smelled something like the flowers and plants in the forest.
I pretended not to notice, whistling and shaking my legs, she stood next to me and said softly, "Thank you, Mr. Yalong." ”
I turned my head and said, "Ah, sorry, I didn't notice you." ”
She blinked, gently stroked the green hair at the corner of her mouth, and seemed to smile slightly.
I said no thanks, I just wanted the ship. She also sat down, and then untied a string of grass rings on her right wrist: "This is the ring of elves, the elves know each other, and they will treat you as a friend." ”
This elven ring seems to be a grass ring woven from grass, and it's so small, how can I wear it?
I said no, I was inconvenient. She smiled: "The ring of elves can be large or small, very elastic, and has an elven atmosphere, which can make people feel calm." ”
She snapped the Elven Ring around my wrist, and I tossed it with her, and she saw the bell on my finger.
"Does Mr. Yalong know the sacrifice of the Sea Moon Country?"
I've heard of the sacrifice of the Sea Moon Country, and what Ivy said, that sacrifice is a brown-robed mage, and one of the strongest Terran mages.
I said why are you asking, and Devany smiled: "I've only seen this kind of bell on her, it's very chic." ”
My heart moved, could it be that the sacrifice of Haiyue Country was that girl?
I inquired, and Daphne told me all about it.
The sacrifice of the Sea Moon Country is called Mochizuki, and she is a servant master who can predict many things, and although no one has ever seen her make a move, everyone thinks that she is one of the strongest human races.
A name like Mochizuki isn't a real name at first sound, but it also represents a noble honorific title, and I highly suspect that Mochizuki is the bell girl, and I must go and meet her.
Daphne finished saying and put the grass ring on my hand, and this thing can really get bigger, and when you pull it, it gets bigger, it's amazing.
As soon as I put it on, I really felt very cool, like I was in the middle of a forest, and the turbidity in my heart flashed away.
I said this thing is really good, thanks. Devonne's hair was tossed by the wind, and she looked sideways at me, hard to look away.
"Mr. Arng, why don't you come with me to Brad, you are very powerful, I will introduce you to the king, and when I return, I can take you to the elves." ”
So good? The Elven Ring has also been delivered, and you want to introduce me to the king, and you want to take me to the Elven Clan?
I've read in books that the elves are very xenophobic, they don't welcome any race into the elven land, even if they are close to the goblins, they are just doing business.
I'm kind of confused, in fact, I've been watching Daphne, she's not in a hurry since she was attacked, obviously she knows everything, but she just didn't expect me to make a move.
Maybe it was just an accident that I made a move, and even if I didn't, she would be caught.
So it's a bit fake that she's so enthusiastic about me, but I'm a human race with a wealth of experience, where is it so easy to trust others.
I nodded, "Okay, I've always wanted to go to the Elf Clan." ”
She smiled softly, "Welcome." ”
I'm going to go with her, if nothing else, I just want to see what medicine she has in her gourd, and if she wants to use me, I have to use her.
The ship continued on its way for five days.
In the past five days I have become very acquainted with Daphne, she is very graceful, and I should like her very much, but she is too graceful, what can lead to being too graceful?
Even Ruth is more charming than her, Ruth will at least stare at me and hum me, she is a cute little kitten, but this elf princess is unchanged and makes people not interested.
Thankfully, the boring days were soon over, and when we arrived in Brad, we were greeted by royal soldiers, and Daphne took the Elven Guard and me to the hotel.
She came to celebrate the 80th birthday of King Haiyue, in fact, many races have sent people, but the elves are very low-key, and they come by boat with ordinary people, which is unexpected.
The city-state of Brad was very lively, it was already very prosperous, and at this time, it was the king's 80th birthday, and there were many guests, so it was no wonder that it was not lively.
I watched the streets from the carriage and could see a lot of races, all playing and getting along well with the Terrans. Birds can occasionally be seen in the sky, not only wurms, but also many strange bird tribes.
Soon arrived at the hotel, which was used by the royal family to house VIPs, extraordinarily luxurious, just outside the palace.
At this time, the number of races coming and going in the hotel could not be counted, there were more than thirty orc races alone, as well as people from the Holy See and the Mage Guild.
The Terrans in the north also came, and I saw a group of female generals of the Bauhinia Kingdom, all wearing scimitars, heroic and extraordinary.
The cavalry of the Beiqian Empire also came, but unfortunately the mounts could not enter, and those cavalry inevitably lost a bit of domineering, but they were also far taller than the human race of the Haiyue Country.
These are all casual glances, others are also looking at us, the elves are too eye-catching, they can't help but look at it, and I, an alien, are also uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the elves like to be quiet, and Devine didn't find anyone to catch up, and went straight into the room to rest.
I also rested, and when I slept and woke up it was dawn. I was also idle when I lived alone, so I went to tell Daphne that I wanted to go out for a walk, but she was not there, and I asked the elven guards, and the guards did not answer, mysterious.
I went straight out, and the VIPs couldn't stay, and the hotel was not empty, but a little deserted.
I went straight to the Imperial Library, which is inside Brad College, the largest college in the continent, with a library of 100,000 volumes, documenting the culture and history of almost every race.
The academy has recently opened to the public, and I was able to get in easily. I asked for directions before finding the Imperial Library.
It was overcrowded, of course, there were very few human races, most of them orcs. The Imperial Library is so famous, and the studious guys of these races are eager to read it.
I went in and looked for books about dragon knights, but unfortunately I was disappointed, there was not a single one, but there were many books in the Holy See, and there were songs of dragon knights, and I couldn't read them at all.
I couldn't find a book on the dragon knight, so I looked for a book about demons.
The demon spirit is also a secret, and I haven't found it after looking for a long time. I'll take a step back and find the Ancient Magic Books.
Now, it is recorded in the book that ancient magic is extremely powerful, a fireball can burn a huge city, and a lightning bolt can split a mountain, which is the magic of God's gift.
It sounded a bit like an ancient dragon, and my father couldn't have done it.
I thought it was fake, but it was interesting, and I flipped through a few more books, and all of them were written like myths.
There is not the slightest clue of the demon spirit in it, I am really distressed, could it be that I have to go to the Dark Council, and I have to hurry?
In the midst of depression, I suddenly heard the crisp sound of bells in my ears.
I sneered, my ears pricked up, and the bell was very close, right across from me.
I removed the books from the shelves in front of me, and a hole was open in the shelves, and I could see the hair of a woman on the other side.
She was short, her books were blocking her body, and all I could see was her silver hair, and the hair ornament near her ears was two strings of small bells, which was very cute.
Is it the girl?
I hurried around the bookshelf to find her, the bell rang a few more times, and when I got around, she was gone.
There were a lot of orcs nearby, and I grabbed one of the rabbit people and asked, "Was there a woman here just now?"
The rabbit man was short and thin, and he was scared half to death by me: "Yes...... yes, wearing a brown robe, no chest and no ass, ugly to death. Don't hit me, I'll introduce you to a few bunny girls. ”
Get out of the way!
I'm going to look for it, it's the bell!
