Chapter 44
,
Char laughed dryly, but remembered the words that the old guy often beat himself when he was alive.
"People who are stupid but like to be smart tend to die quickly. It seems stupid, but in fact, smart people will live long. ”
"People will ignore you when you are a fool. If everybody knows you're smart, then everybody will think of you as the focus - and it's not so easy to knock people behind your back. ”
Thinking of this, Char shook his head vigorously, and showed that harmless and innocent smile on his face: "Who said I was smart, I was just a native in the mountains." ”
If Tatara saw Char's loyal smile, the corners of his eyes would twitch. Ada only smiled slightly and stopped talking about the topic.
He looked at the dying Dora, as if he was in a state of mind for a moment, and then finally spoke: "Actually...... If you had thought that this would be the case after you hurt me, you would have regretted it. ”
Ada had a smile on his face: "The so-called blessing of the dragon god is actually very simple, I am the lucky one selected by the clan, and a special skill given to me by the dragon god is...... Anyone who is the first to harm me will lose half of their strength, vitality, magic, and physical vitality...... All halved and will stay at that level forever!"
His smile softened more and more: "Dora, you were also very young back then, and our dragon clan will only reach the peak of magic and strength when we reach adulthood, but you attacked me too early, and as a result, I became a human and could not recover the dragon body, and you lost half of your strength, and you are still half of the strength of your 'juvenile state'! The noble and proud Dora has become the weakest of all the dragons! Don't you think this kind of irony is wonderful?"
Char grinned when he heard this, this dragon god's blessing - where is the blessing, it's a curse at all!
"The eternal tears of the jīng spirit clan, only the poisoned person can lift the spell, you naturally refuse to help me lift it, but I will not help you lift the curse of the dragon god...... Actually, let me tell you, it's not that I don't want to help you lift it, but I can't! The curse of the dragon god has no way to break it! You must be very annoyed that you know this result. ”
Ada had already stood up, his fingers caressing Dora's neck, the movements were gentle and delicate, like a gentle caress between lovers, but the eyes, the voice, were cold.
Under Ada's caressing, Dora's breath became weaker and weaker, and she opened her eyes weakly, but there was no lust in her eyes, and there was a slight whimper in her snort, but she didn't even have the strength to speak.
Ada gently placed the amber sè hedron in his hand in front of Dora's forehead, and smiled, "Do you know what this thing is? I have traveled many years in the human world to find this thing. Well, this is a soul contract stone, rest assured, I will not turn your soul into my slave because I don't have that kind of magic, however, your soul will be sucked into this stone forever and will never be able to return to the cemetery.
Now, please, die. ”
Although Dora's eyes could not see, she felt a deep fear, and she opened her mouth unwillingly, as if she wanted to roar, and seemed to want to spit out dragon breath to kill the enemy, but only let out a low wail.
"Do it, Witcher. Ada turned his head and glanced at Char coldly: "Use your sharp weapon to pierce her forehead! Your weapon is too short to pierce her heart directly, but it is sharp enough to pierce her hard skull." ”
Char didn't hesitate, strode over, held the fire fork in both hands, came to the dragon's head, but muttered a few times in his mouth: "Hey! ”
After speaking, he closed his eyes vigorously, flew up and jumped on the dragon's neck, and the fire fork stabbed hard at the dragon's head!
With a dull cracking sound, the fire fork entered through the keel, and with a pop, it went straight into the dragon's brain, until it was out of handle!!
Dora groaned, her head seemed to be raised, but finally she hung down weakly, and her mouth exhaled her last breath, and a cloud of green smoke came out of her nostrils......
Char pierced the dragon's brain with a fire fork, and immediately smelled a strange fragrance, he didn't know that the dragon's brain fluid naturally had a strange fragrance, this aroma made Char's brain blur instantly, only to feel that the aroma rushed directly into the brain from the nose, and suddenly felt comfortable all over the body, and the original feeling of pain on the body disappeared in an instant.
A translucent mist of turquoise sè soon appeared on the dragon's body, and Ada's eyes narrowed, and he held up the amber hedron high, and sang a strange ballad word by word in his mouth.
This is not a magic spell, nor is it the language of the dragons, but a kind of song like a requiem, but the pronunciation is simple and difficult, although the bite is a human voice, it seems to be an ancient and lost ancient language, Char listened, seven or eight out of ten sentences are not understood.
The blue translucent mist of light that floated up gently was the dragon soul. After each dragon dies, the spirit leaves the body and flies away to a mysterious place, which is the graveyard of the dragons!
Dragons have a strange tradition, when they die, they don't care what happens, but they must get a soul burial!
The green dragon soul seemed to be about to fly away, but under Ada's chanting one by one, it seemed to be a little sluggish, and then it seemed to be attracted by the ballad, and it approached Ada little by little, suspended in the air, constantly changing shapes, turning into a green sè smoke, and finally wrapped around Ada's palm, as if attracted by the amber spar, and was absorbed little by little......
Ada seemed to be struggling, beads of sweat on his forehead, and his voice became harder. Although this requiem was not magic, it was extremely draining of his jīng divine power, and his eyes soon showed a look of exhaustion, and when the dragon soul began to inhale the spars, Ada finally breathed a sigh of relief, he felt a wave of exhaustion wash up, and finally his body staggered, his feet were weak, and he fell on the dragon's corpse.
The dragon soul has been sucked in for the most part, leaving only a few faint wisps of residual green mist, but it has not yet penetrated into the amber spar, but Ada has already fainted one step ahead, and the few remaining wisps of soul, without the guidance of the requiem, suddenly lost its direction, and faintly seemed to be spreading.
Char saw it in his eyes, and was a little curious in his heart, and couldn't help but stretch out his hand to grab it in the air, the soul was invisible, but where could he catch it? Char grabbed a handful of air, his hands were empty, but the green mist seemed to suddenly change shape, as if he was alarmed by Char's actions, and then exhaled, a trace of residual smoke swirled around Char's palm, all the way up, but suddenly gathered on Char's neck!
There was a gray rotten stone hanging from his neck, but it seemed to have become the target of this remnant soul, those smoke eyes were about to disperse, but suddenly found such a place, the speed increased a lot, and before Char could exclaim, he got into it all!
Char opened his mouth, and saw this trace of green smoke into the pendant around his neck, he couldn't help but reach out and touch it, the pendant was still cold, pinched in his hand with sharp edges and corners, it still looked so gray, but I don't know why, if I look closely, there is always a subtle feeling that something is wrong, but what is wrong, but I can't say.
Ada leaned on the dragon corpse, gasped for a while before he came to his senses, stood up, looked at the spar in his hand, the crystal corpse of the lake sè had turned into a green face, Ada was relieved, opened his mouth and swallowed the spar, and then glanced at Char: "What about the remaining soul just now?"
"Uh......" Char thought about it, I don't know why, the words came to his lips, but he didn't tell the truth, probably subconsciously made a choice in his heart: "Scattered." ”
"Scattered...... Ada nodded, not suspicious of him, and said with a faint smile: "It's okay if it's scattered, most of the soul has been sucked by me, and the remaining soul can't return to the Dragon Tomb, and the disappearance is also its end." ”
Ada seemed to have a hint of melancholy in his god, although he had finally completed what he had been thinking about for many years, he suddenly felt a little bored, he looked at Char, thought for a moment, and then quickly said: "Okay, my business is done, and I have taken what I want to take, and now everything here belongs to you." ”
“...... I ......" Char hesitated.
"The Witcher. Ada looked at Char, his eyes a little gentle: "I have to thank you after all, otherwise, I would have been buried alive outside the mountain." I am now a human body, and I have no power. Anyway, I owe you once!"
Saying that, he stopped talking to Char, turned around and walked out, he took a few steps, Char couldn't help but shout: "Hey, Ada, where are you going?"
Ada turned around and frowned at Char: "I, naturally, left." ”
Char opened his mouth, only feeling that something was wrong in his heart, but finally said sullenly: "You still owe me a gold coin!"
Ada smiled and glanced at Char: "Owe it first, you can calculate the interest." ”
As he spoke, he strode out, not looking back. Char hesitated for a moment, but finally didn't chase after him, and let Ada leave like that.
After Ada left, Char jumped on the ground, sat down, quickly took off the pendant, and looked at it several times in his hand, but he still couldn't see anything wrong.
What is the use of the dragon soul?
Well, for Uncle Char, the most important thing is ...... Are there any benefits?
And also...... Thinking of this, Char's heart moved, so why don't you just throw it away?
But after thinking about it, this is one of the few things that the old guy left for himself, and it is always a thought to wear it on his body.
"Damn! I wasn't afraid when she was alive, but when she died, she became a ghost, but I was afraid?" Char glared at the dragon's corpse fiercely, emboldening herself.
After all, he is a turtle xìngzi, the worries in his heart come and go quickly, and after figuring it out, he jumped up with cheers.
"Peeling cramps!!"
