CHAPTER XV
Char was furious.
He threw it back with a backhand, and Bidardo screamed, and two teeth flew out of his mouth. Char said angrily: "Do you think I'm so deceived? Treasure? You treat me as a three-year-old child? The legend of the treasure on the wildfire field is not ten thousand, but eight thousand, and I have heard it for more than ten years. This kind of talk is similar to that of a child. The treasure map in the tavern in Wildfire Town can be bought for eighteen copper plates, and they are all different versions! Besides, I heard it in the trees just now, and you are going to hunt lion beasts!
Bidardo covered his mouth, and only scolded the eighteenth generation of Char's ancestors in his heart, but he didn't dare to have a trace of anger on his face, and pleaded: "What I said is the truth...... This thief, this ...... Actually, we came from the royal city, and my companions were all nobles. I haven't been out of the door in Pingrì, and I have become a master behind closed doors in a group of aristocratic young people, in fact, where is the real skill......"
"You're a man who understands, and you know that your companions are straw bales. Char was a little curious.
Bidardo covered his face and smiled bitterly: "Of course I know." They are aristocrats, they can ignore the world, and practice a few martial arts casually, naturally there are servants at home who rush to pat themselves, and over time, they really regard themselves as masters. I'm a magician, a proper church-certified mage, though only at the first level. I naturally know my pounds. ”
After a pause, seeing that Char was a little impatient, Bidardo didn't dare to talk nonsense, and hurriedly said: "This time, I encouraged a few of them to go out, and I told them that since we are the four masters, we should officially travel the world and spread the prestige of our four masters to the far reaches of the mainland, which can be regarded as the real fame of the world." These guys were tempted, so they were tricked by me into running away from home and running out to take risks......" As he spoke, the magician's own face turned red and he smiled bitterly: "I naturally did this for a reason. I am a lowest-level mage, in the royal capital, there are so many masters, where can anyone look down on me as a low-level mage. I can only coax these aristocratic boys to mix up some money. But the other day, I got a message from the Wizards' Guild. The source of the message is absolutely reliable!
Although my strength is low, my magic teacher is a real intermediate magician. It is also very famous in the Intramural City. That day, I heard from my brother that the teacher was going to be away for a while, and it was said that he was going away with several famous mages in the royal city. I knocked on the side for a long time, and my brother was drunk before telling me that the teacher and the other magicians had gone to the wildfire. ”
Bidardo's eyes became a little excited: "I heard that there is a major discovery in the wildfire field!
Char was very impatient: "Tell me, what kind of bullshit does this have to do with the secret of making a fortune?!"
Seeing Char's slap raised again, Bidardo immediately covered his face: "Don't! Don't fight! Don't worry, it's almost there, it's almost ......."
He was extremely aggrieved in his heart, and a first-level magician was also a magician......
Swallowing and foaming, he hurriedly continued: "Of course it's true to get rich...... Because, that major discovery on the wildfire field is actually ......"
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but pause, looked at Char with a smug look, and then slowly said the answer:
"It's a dragon!"
Dragon?
At this time, even Char's face became solemn!
Dragon?
He hadn't seen a dragon though...... Of course, the vast majority of people have never seen a dragon, and if they do, they are basically dead.
On the continent, dragons are transcendent and powerful. Char had heard all sorts of legends in the taverns of Wildfire, and basically every story that described how those legendary heroes broke new ground, there was a vulgar addition of a heroic battle against a powerful dragon. In every story, the dragon exists as the ultimate **oss.
But these legends are just legends after all.
The reality is that dragons do exist on the continent, but the territory where dragons inhabit is in the far north of the continent. As far as that, you have to cross the Odin Empire and continue further north...... Anyway, in the Byzantine Empire, there was absolutely no such thing as a dragon.
Thinking of this, Char was a little unconvinced - at least he still knew common sense, the Byzantine Empire did not have dragons, nor did the Wildfire Plain, and the Odin Empire was afraid of it......
"What I said is true!" Bidardo lowered his voice: "Mr. Thief, think about it, I know very well that my strength is low, and I am not one of those noble boys next to me who don't know the height of the sky. How could I end up in a dangerous place like the Wildfire Plain without a special reason?"
This reason convinced Char.
Indeed, with the skills of these guys, running to the wildfire field is like a hen getting into a weasel's den.
They weren't slaughtered as fat sheep in Wildfire Town along the way, and I'm afraid their outfit was very scaring people.
"There really is a dragon in the Wildfire Plain! This news came from my teacher! And my teacher, because of this, united several powerful magicians to come to the Wildfire Plain, and their purpose is ...... Hunt this dragon!"
Slaying dragons?
Char came to the god Jīng, as if she had gone back to the old days when she was listening to stories in a tavern.
"Needless to say, the strength of the dragon is naturally needless to say, if it is in a normal state, although my teacher is an intermediate magician and a famous master in the royal city, but if you want to deal with a dragon, it is just a joke. So, he joined several magicians to come together. One of the more important reasons is...... I heard that this dragon hiding in the wildfire field is in a very weak state for some special reasons, and it is the best time to start!" The more the magician spoke, the more excited he became: "You know, a dragon is an excellent treasure for a magician! Dragon skin, dragon scales, dragon bones, dragon teeth, and even dragon snakes are the best magic materials! Not to mention, if you can dig up the dragon's dragon crystal, you can refine the dragon's soul power...... It's almost enough to make a magician's strength leap by several levels at once!"
When Char heard this, he sneered and looked at this Bidardo: "So you also moved your mind and ran here to hunt dragons?
Bidardo blushed: "I...... Naturally, I wouldn't be obsessed with slaying dragons. Even if I'm crazy, I know that I don't have that kind of ability, and I won't be able to do it in another hundred years. So, I'm here for the money. ”
Money?
"Dragons are creatures that like shiny things, so they will collect all kinds of treasures, and any cave where a dragon hides is often like a huge treasure, which is full of all kinds of gems, crystals, and gold that the dragon has collected...... These things are going to pile up!"
Bidardo took a breath: "These treasures are naturally tempting for ordinary people, but for magicians, they are just some mundane things, and the really powerful magicians will not be tempted by property at all, and the teachers who want to come to me, as well as those ** masters who go with him to find the dragon, will not be tempted." Their goal is to slay the dragon, and as for the dragon's treasure, if nothing else, maybe they will just throw it there after they get their hands on it......"
Char understood, hehe sneered: "So, you want to quietly follow over, wait for your teacher and his companions to kill the dragon, and after leaving, you go and pick up the treasures they don't want?"
“...... Yes. Bidardo nodded: "I am a lowly magician, and I am not very talented. I don't expect to become a truly powerful mage in my life. So, for me, money makes a lot of sense, otherwise I wouldn't be hanging out with these bale aristocratic boys. It's just that...... I was so poor that I didn't even have the money to get from the royal city to the wildfire field, so I had to ......."
"So, you made up a lie and tricked these straw bale noble boys into coming with you, pretending to be tricking them into traveling the continent together?" Char shook his head, and then glared at this guy: "Then don't talk nonsense, tell me quickly, where is the place where those magicians slay dragons? Since you came here, you must know the location!"
Bidardo sighed, and reluctantly took out a piece of parchment from his bosom, along with a charcoal bar, on which he drew a map.
"From here, all the way west, two more hills, and a swamp, and you're there. ”
Char glanced at the map, then smiled, "How can I believe that you didn't draw me a fake map?"
Bidardo hurriedly said: "I don't dare! I have my life in your hands now...... Wealth is tempting, but it also requires life to enjoy it. I'm very timid...... Don't dare to joke with your life. ”
Char looked at him deeply, then smiled, pulled him up, and stretched out his finger: "Okay, you can talk, now you can go over and get out of here with your companions." ”
As if pardoned, Bidardo got up, limped over to the three companions, and didn't know what to say, as for how this cunning fellow fooled the three bales, it was not Char's concern.
Sure enough, the other three people of the four shows in the royal city looked at Xia Ya in horror, quickly got up, supported each other, and quickly escaped in embarrassment.
Char stood under the tree and watched the four guys walk away, before he raised his head and shouted at the tree with a smile: "Hey, poor worm, jump down!"
The poor insect on the tree had already sat numb in its legs, but where did he dare to jump, Char glared: "If you jump down, I will naturally catch you! If you don't jump, I will cut down the tree!"
The poor creature was frightened at once—this terrible fellow, with all his brute strength, could uproot the tree, and was so coarse and ferocious, and he must have done it if he said so.
I could only jump with my eyes closed.
Char was kind, reached out and borrowed the poor worm and threw him on the ground.
"Did you hear it in the trees just now?" Char touched his chin and looked at the poor worm.
“...... Listen, hear. The poor worm nodded, but then suddenly he screamed, and looked at Char in horror: "Hey, you, you don't want to kill people!!! I, I'm not interested in that dragon's treasure!!"
"I'm not much interested in killing. Char shook her head: "Do you think what the magician said is true?"
The poor worm hesitated: "I think...... Some believable, but ......"
He sat on the ground and looked at Char, "Are you going to find the dragon's treasure?"
"Of course, who doesn't like gold and silver?" Char snorted twice.
"So, what should I do?"
"Give you two options, or walk back to Wildfire by yourself. Either...... You'll have to follow me, and when you find the treasure, you'll be able to carry the gold for me. Char grinned.
Walking back to Wildfire Town alone from here?
With the ability to get lost when you walk in the wild...... If I didn't have this turtle to lead the way, I'm afraid I'd break into the dwarf's cave!
"I have a choice!" replied the poor creature indignantly.
"That's good, find the treasure, and I'll give you a third. Char was very happy: "I won't hurt you, you don't pose any threat to me." ”
"I ...... Why don't I think you're at ease—you agreed to take me so easily?" looked at Char with poor insect.
"Well, I'll be honest with you. Char's god Sè was very calm, and his face was very upright: "Ming people don't do dark things! If we rush over, those mages failed to kill the dragon, but were killed by the dragon...... Then I naturally had to run away. After a pause, he explained: "When I was a child, when I went up the mountain to chop wood, I would take a live rabbit, break the rabbit's leg first, and if I met a wolf, I would throw the rabbit down to attract the wolf's attention and run away by myself. So, I'm taking you there, it's a truth. ”
Poor Worm: "...... %%......※%×※”
