Chapter 193: Auspicious Rainfall from the Sky

Silver Dragon Castle is a city ruled by demons for more than thirty years, and from the perspective of other races, it would be really strange if there were no strange things.

However, if there is anything that makes the demons think it is incredible, then it is really not an ordinary event.

It's just that compared to the war and aftermath on the border, if the matter in the rear is not urgent, the remaining lich leader Kant will handle it himself and will not report it to the lord Vincent.

But this strange thing was brought up by Seid, and Vincent knew that he was not a gossip guy, so he should listen to what his brother had to say.

"What's going on, Elsa?" Vincent asked, "What did you find?"

"Don't tell my brother, he'll be sad." Elsa reported worriedly, "My lord, my brother's trophy is suddenly gone."

"It doesn't matter, just make another one, just a few gold coins."

Vincent breathed a sigh of relief, no matter how easy it was for him to rub a trophy, he wouldn't need much protection.

At that time, the trophies of the competition were all made by him on a temporary basis, and he didn't even have a prize plan in advance, so he planned to send gold coins directly.

In fact, he lost some gold coins, and with the position Sadhaka is now holding, the income is not small, and that money must not be taken to heart.

Winning the competition was just a means for him to find a chance to meet the lord for help, and Brother Leopard didn't care about the prize, and he didn't even care about the honor.

However, there are some things that cannot be seen in terms of the loss of property alone.

After the fall of Luke's party, the Sadaka siblings were freed, and from then on they lived in the lord's castle and became retainers of the lord.

Most of them went out to quell the rebellion, but Elsa was still recuperating in the castle, and the championship trophy was in her castle.

Every day, the little leopard lady will wipe it, and she will be full of pride when she sees the trophy in the shape of a flying dragon shining in the sun.

Therefore, the loss of the trophy cannot be blamed only on the poor care of the patient, but also on the caretaker of the castle.

Guarded by thousands of skull guards and all kinds of monsters that are difficult for ordinary people to detect, as well as all kinds of magic protection from great magician-level lichs, and as a result, people quietly took away the trophy, and Vincent was disappointed by the castle's security measures even if he was tolerant.

This time it's a trophy, and next time it's my other collection.

No, you can't even guarantee your own safety!

The lich leader didn't report it, not knowing if he thought it wasn't worth the fuss, or if he was ashamed to admit it.

Lichs are intelligent high-level demons, and they also want to save face.

It doesn't matter if you lose something, it's more troublesome if you can't find it.

Next time, ask the Divine Venerable to see if he has a similar positioning function, which is very meaningful for saving important items.

"It's big and big, it's small and it's small, it's good that there are no other losses," Vincent asked in a playful tone, glancing at Ninia, "My toy, do you think there are adventurers or assassins or the like who are playing tricks on me?"

"A top-notch assassin might be able to sneak in and steal valuables without alerting the castle guards." Ninia blushed a little, but still said the truth, "But who would risk breaking into a demon castle to steal a prize?"

"But it's true that nothing has been lost, and the purpose is strange," said Said to Vincent, "and the lich doesn't understand who can escape the magic and come and go."

"If I want, I could have sold him the same price." Vincent said, half-jokingly, half-seriously, "I really want to know who did this exciting thing."

Judging from the results so far, this incident can already be called a strange thing, but even stranger is yet to come.

The person who can do such a thing is by no means a general person, and if he can make friends and use it for himself, Vincent will not mind giving him trophies every day.

"But, my lord, listen to me, the trophies of the bishop Bellman and the captain of the team, Lord Essen, have not been found, and they were both lost on the same day."

"Oh? Is there such a thing?"

As a demon, Vincent knew that he was not liked, and he was in office as soon as he took office

If you can encounter assassination, it means that someone looks at you unpleasantly and will definitely find trouble in various ways.

So, what about the loss of the trophies of the bishop and the captain of the garrison?

Both of them were well-known figures in Silver Dragon Castle, and their reputations were much better than those of the leader, at least not so bad as to be assassinated.

"Wait, is only the championship trophy missing?" Ninia asked curiously, "At that time, the master gave prizes to everyone else in the ranking."

"Some of the other people's prizes were sold, but the ones that didn't sell were kept at home, and after investigation, they were all safe and sound," Syd added, "If I hadn't been interested in this matter and investigated a little, I would have come back a day earlier."

In other words, the thief is only interested in the championship trophies of the three events.

Aside from its commemorative significance, the trophy is just a uniquely shaped hollow dragon statue with nothing special.

The gold itself is not very valuable, and if you want to imitate it, a skilled craftsman can do it, so why do you have to steal it?

Although the church is not as heavily guarded as the lord's castle, it also has high walls, armament and magic protection, especially the type of magic is completely different from the demons, and it can get things out of it, and it has not yet attracted people's attention, and it is really evil.

Others don't know, but Vincent knows something.

Bishop Beckman is an old man who is greedy for power, and if he wants power to keep it from him, he must need a huge amount of wealth to maintain it.

The bishop is a big shortfall, and if he wants to, he can make money out of charities and taxes that will make the noble lords jealous.

Bishop Beckman, of course, was not a noble and philanthropic apostle, and he kept a close eye on the wealth he used for political investment, and his private wealth was kept in the secret treasury of the Church, where he prayed for the gods to bless his wealth.

In addition to sending additional guards, the bishop also used his authority to have the priests who used divine magic to lay various magic arrays to protect them from being approached by demons and thieves.

These things were told to the lord by Safin, the leader of the Mage Guild, because he happened to participate in the renovation of the church's treasury back then, and he also tested the strength of protection with the proud five fireball magic.

Vincent gave the Bishop a mechanical safe with a relatively simple structure, and after Beckman praised it again and again, he regretted that although the safe was good, it could not be made larger than the living room.

Another disadvantage of the safe is that since the safe is made by the power of the craftsman, it cannot use the "Bright Sacred Seal" that can only be applied by the Chosen of Light, and cannot let the divine power directly become the source of protection.

It was this power that made President Safin's life's work useless.

If you want to break through the Bright Seal of the treasure house, it is by no means an easy thing, either the Divine Chosen Deity will crack it, or the strong will vigorously perform miracles, but it is unlikely that it will be silent.

Unexpectedly, this treasure house of fire, theft and demon clan can't even prevent a thief who steals the trophy, and the guards of the church don't know anything.

If the people in the lord's palace hadn't gone over to inquire, the clergy and guards would have thought nothing had happened.

It is no wonder that the Bishop, who is obviously belated, has not said anything about this matter, and if he really says it, he will not only embarrass himself, but also disgrace the face of the god of light and order.

This is easy to understand, in the world where Vincent lived, there were also many sanctimonious characters who did not dare to speak out when they lost something.

This incident is also a small loss to the whole church, and it is extremely insulting.

As for Essen, the captain of the city garrison, it feels easy to accept.

Captain Essen is a mercenary leader who has led his 1,000 brothers to guard the city for many years, and there are two long-established barracks in the city, located near the city's north and south gates.

Every day when the sun rises, 100 men are usually left in the barracks, and the rest are guarded and patrolled at the city gates, walls, and streets.

The captain was a veteran who had fought for half his life, and his net worth was not comparable to that of the bishop, but he was by no means poor, and Vincent guessed that he must have put his prize in the barracks, and weapons, salaries, supplies, etc

Keep the items together and send their cronies to protect them.

The thief doesn't necessarily need magic to steal from a mercenary's barracks, and he can sneak in at night or disguise himself as a soldier, which is much easier than infiltrating a lord's castle or church sanctuary.

The captain himself must be annoyed, after all, the trophy was lost under his nose, but in the end he is a mercenary who does not pay much attention to honor and pays more attention to practical interests, and if he loses something, he loses it.

For these things, the lord's subordinates investigated a large circle in Silver Dragon Castle, inquired important parties, and found no clues.

Not only were there no witnesses, but even the smell of the trophy disappeared.

"It doesn't sound like the enemy did it," Vincent said with a slight frown, "those things are dispensable to me or the others, and I can't think of any special value or use for the trophy."

"Brother, that day in the suburbs, a farmer witnessed something even more incredible, but everyone around him thought he was crazy," Said seemed to be more interested in the matter than the others, and provided a new clue, "The farmer said that when he was napping against the haystack, he saw a silver dragon flying in the sky, and then he swore in the village tavern that he saw the dragon, and he said it to everyone."

Silver Dragon?

"Sleepy, aren't you?" Vincent was amused, "I've also dreamed of this kind of thing, whoever made our city call Silver Dragon Castle."

If there really is a dragon, wouldn't it be better for it to come out directly to receive prostration and worship during the festival?

The farmer does not have such a high consciousness, and he will always talk about some sesame mung beans in a magical way, and finally spread the word.

Vincent preferred to believe that he had seen an airplane.

"Brother, is there really nothing to do between these two things?" Seid, who didn't seem to give up, pressed again, "I cleaned up the farmer so that the lich could identify him, and finally the extracted memories proved that he wasn't lying."

The Demon Clan's Great Memory Recovery Technique is not for fun, especially for the little devil Syd, the farmer is really unlucky.

"Is the farmer okay then?" Ninia asked with concern, "You don't need to toss him so much, I'll talk about it if I give him some money."

"Don't worry, he's not dead, he got gold coins after repairing it, and he drank happily." Said didn't care, "The truth is never bought, especially against greedy people."

Is it still true?

Vincent was a little dumbfounded, there was no way Seid could lie to himself, if someone did witness the silver dragon, it would be a bigger event than the loss of the trophy.

The Silver Dragon is the guardian beast of the territory, which has not been seen for at least forty years, and now only an ethereal legend remains.

If you think about it from a different angle...... Hey?

Is this an auspicious omen?

However, reminiscent of the last time a teacher surnamed Kong saw the abnormal experience of a unicorn in the late Spring and Autumn period, Mr. Wen didn't know what this meant.

Is it the silver dragon who congratulates himself on putting down the rebellion and bringing peace and tranquility to the territory?

Or is the demon clan raging, and the divine beast can't bear to be miserable and wants to come out to uphold justice?

"Is it possible, maybe it's an illusion," Vincent told the group, "There are always people who want to harm the master, and these things may be part of their plan."

"Oh, lord, is it a conspiracy of the Herodes?" Elsa puffed up, "If it were them, they would have done anything bad."

If they were the ones who did this, Vincent wouldn't be worried.

Could it be that the thieves can summon the silver dragon by gathering three trophies?

While everyone was talking about the loss of the trophy and the appearance of the silver dragon, the messenger of the Herodian who had delivered the ransom and supplies arrived, and Vincent had to put the matter aside and seize the time to reap the benefits.

Trophies can be cheapened for the thief, but the matter of the silver dragon is worth investigating in depth.

After quelling the rebellion, Vincent planned to take a personal trip to the Windroar Mountains, which were located on the mainland

to the west is the legendary place where dragons nest.

As a lord himself, it shouldn't be abrupt to visit the guardian spirit of the territory.

It is said that once upon a time, the local lords would pay the silver dragon with an annual tribute of treasure for the dragon's protection, but Vincent's predecessor, Dacoolas, left this behind him, and Vincent himself had planned to do the same.

Since there are rumors of the silver dragon haunting, you might as well make a fuss about this matter.

Take a field trip to the Whistling Mountains, whether you have a dragon or not, you can learn about the situation of the territory, and when the time comes, you can arrange some fascinating legends and stories, make a drama and spread it in the city, and add some cultural heritage to the territory.

The mountain is not high, and if there is a dragon, it will be spiritual. The mountains and rivers are beautiful, or the scenery is bizarre, and it has development value, and it can also lay a foundation for some simple planning to lay the foundation for the future development of tourism.

Even if you don't have a good view, wouldn't it be beautiful to build a Silver Dragon theme park in it, put a bunch of unheard of amusement facilities in another world, and then let Silver Dragon Castle idol Ninia hold regular God's Chosen performances?

The price can't be set too low, and the lord has a good heart and doesn't pit the poor.

It's a little exciting to think about it......
