……

The change in the expression on Will's face made Matthew quickly realize that he was right.

The dense group of kobolds in front of him was not a single individual, but a clone of Will.

There is a slight difference in the appearance of these kobolds, some have an extra mole on their foreheads, some have two more scars on their cheeks, and some have a shorter neck......

For people who don't know kobolds or don't take a serious look.

It's hard to tell that their images are from Will himself, but with a slight change.

In fact.

Matthew didn't tell the details with the naked eye.

It was the ability to perceive in balance that gave him insight into the truth.

When I was secretly observing.

Matthew found that compared to ordinary kobolds, Will's figure was much stronger, the vertical pupil marks in his eyes were more obvious, and fine scales appeared on his forehead and neck.

This is all a sign that the thin true dragon blood in the kobold's body has been awakened.

No doubt.

Krent. Will is a true dragon vein warlock, and his level is around between eighteen and twenty.

But for Matthew, what interests him the most is Will's doppelganger.

"It's not an illusion."

"It's a real Transfiguration......"

Matthew could feel a slight throbbing in the Transfiguration realm, and his mind was reminded of the hidden legend that Margaret had mentioned when she explained the true Transfiguration, and he couldn't help but compare it to the kobold in front of him.

You can't go wrong.

It's just that what makes Matthew deeply vigilant is that this kind of real transformation technique that creates a large number of doppelgangers for himself, even if he has a high level of attainment in the field of transformation, must have legendary-level strength to be able to master.

Although the kobold in front of him obviously hides some of his strength, it can be inferred from the reactions of Loran and Carmela that he is not a legend.

So how did the other side do this?

Matthew was curious.

Therefore, when Will came to talk, he simply broke through the other party's bottom line.

The kobold warlock gave Matthew a deep look, then suddenly turned around and left:

"I was presumptuous."

He walked very fast, and at once he moved to the other side of the drawbridge entrance.

Matthew looked at the kobold's back and snorted softly:

"There's something about this kobold."

Lorraine answered:

"But not much."

"He actually asked us to do a stupid test, which shows that he himself is a real idiot."

Matthew smiled.

He understood what Loren meant, the so-called stupid test, is to find out the details of the other party through some seemingly stupid conversations.

Will's "theory of cooperation" is a rather stupid proposal.

In dungeons, it's taboo to team up with unknown people on an improvised basis.

Especially when moving in the catacombs.

Triggering a trap can wipe everyone out.

Therefore, the reliability of teammates becomes very important.

Only trustworthy people have the possibility to act together.

And the kobold warlock did this, probably because he thought that the three of Matthew looked deceitful and wanted to try their luck, but they didn't expect to be seen through the details.

This guy is also very single, and he left immediately after realizing that Matthew and the three were not good at stubble.

The two sides did not clash because of this.

"Speaking of which, how did this guy manage this level of true transfiguration?"

Matthew was still secretly watching Will.

Carmela, who was meditating on the sidelines, suddenly reminded:

"Look at the second half."

Lorraine glanced at it quietly:

"It's really not like it's a normal kobold......"

"Did he take drugs?"

Carmella Says:

"Look inside."

Lorraine suddenly shrugged:

"What's the inner meaning of kobolds?"

Matthew immediately used the blessing of the god of the early moon, the "Clear Eye".

In an instant.

A terrifying image appeared in Matthew's field of vision.

But I saw that the kobold warlock's waist was filled with black and white filaments!

These filaments grow outwards like stuffed balls, and they are mainly entrenched in the waist and thighs of the kobold warlock, almost spreading to the knees!

It was also at this time that Matthew noticed.

The black and white fluff on the kobold's chest is not chest hair, it is also a modified filament!

"That's ...... Fungal organisms? ”

Matthew was a little unsure at first.

But when he quietly opened the spore field, he instantly felt a strong resonance!

Krent. Will also cast a surprised look at Matthew.

"Did this guy also get the effect of the real transformation by signing a contract with a fungal creature?"

"It seems that there are indeed signs of the rise of the spore field, and in addition to Hasman, other fungal powerhouses have appeared......"

Matthew is even more curious about the origin of the kobold warlock!

If the conditions are met.

He's even willing to recruit the other party to join the Spore Society!

But at this point, it was Will's turn to take the drawbridge.

At the urging of the Green Dragon Maiden.

Will took the lead, and the kobolds behind him held up candles.

Hundreds of candles were lit.

The darkness over the drawbridge was immediately dispelled.

The kobolds crossed the drawbridge like a disciplined army and disappeared into the entrance to the emerald barrier.

The other two teams also looked at it in amazement.

After that, people passed through the suspension bridge one after another.

"Woo woo woo ......"

There was a bleak sound of music beside the suspension bridge, and the music was full of send-off.

The crowd looked back.

I found that a guy who looked like a poet was playing.

Walking the drawbridge were the people of Swordwinter.

One of them, a mercenary-looking man, couldn't help but scold:

"Scare Lao Tzu!"

"What flute do you play inexplicably?"

"Also, who has a flute?"

The green dragon girl stood at the head of the bridge and scolded:

"You guys go yours, move quickly!"

"And you know the, he's playing the flute, not the flute, it's a different instrument entirely, okay?"

As she spoke, Fatina looked back at Lorraine.

An expression of appreciation appeared on his face.

The Green Dragon Maiden came over:

"Your artistic accomplishment seems to be very high, are you interested in becoming my art and treasure advisor?"

"Of course, all of this is premised on you coming back alive."

Loren agreed:

"Absolutely."

"Don't stop!"

Fatina showed a look of fascination:

"I like this tone, and I like this tune, can you finish it first?"

Loren said with some regret:

"I'm sorry, but there's no second half of this piece."

The green dragon girl was a little annoyed:

"Why isn't there any more?"

Luo Lan said with a sad face:

"This is a piece of music composed by his deceased wife, but unfortunately she died before she could finish the song."

"I don't have that much talent to finish the following piece for her, so I can only play it occasionally as a memorial."

Matthew rolled his eyes when he heard this.

However, the green dragon girl looks like she eats this set!

Her eyes were immediately clouded with a layer of mist, and her tone became gentle:

"Is there a touching story like this?"

"Woooooo Human life is so fragile, I'm sorry, I don't mean to look down on you, I just think, you must love your wife very much, and she must love you very much. ”

Loraine had tears in her eyes:

"Of course."

"In fact, the reason why I joined this tomb robbery operation is that I hope to find the legendary heavenly music left in the Emerald King City, I heard that this book has the function of automatic composition, as long as the first half of the song is written in the movement, it can automatically complete the remaining half."

"If I can really realize this dream and really complete the music made by my deceased wife, then I have no regrets in my life......"

Lorraine finished.

The green dragon girl was already crying.

She sobbed as she said:

"It's so touching...... How come I can't meet a man who is so good to me? ”

"But I haven't heard of any natural music in the Emerald King City, so I can't help you."

"Why don't you go? The Emerald King City is quite dangerous, maybe you won't be able to come back, or you should stay with me, and then I will recruit some powerful musicians for you, and we will definitely be able to complete this song! ”

Loren smiled sadly:

"Thank you, kind Miss Fatina."

"But I've made up my mind, if I can't find the music, let me die in it!"

The green dragon girl's two small fists immediately clenched in her chest, and she exclaimed:

"Don't!"

"Why don't you go......"

It seemed to feel the puzzled gaze of the three Matthew.

Fatina remembered something, and quickly changed her words:

"I'm still going to go."

"If only you could find the crown of sin."

"In this way, I will give you a forced return to the city, in case of danger, you only need to crush the orb, and your companions will immediately return to the dragon's lair."

"In short, stay safe."

Luo Lan suddenly showed gratitude, he grabbed the hands of the green dragon girl as if unconsciously, and told his gratitude vigorously.

This made Fatina blush.

She stood there at a loss, her face flushed from ear to ear.

Matthew is sharp-eyed.

Fatina's forehead had appeared slightly scaled, and the tail behind her ass had torn off part of her skirt and was playfully burrowed out.

This is a sign that the Human Transfiguration may fail at any time!

"Can this guy do anything about it?"

Carmela's voice rang out in Matthew's heart.

Matthew waved his hand.

He glanced at the data bar.

……

"Hint: Your ally Loren has set the Green Dragon Fatina as a 'Strategy Target'!

Loren uses the Bard's professional ability "Love Fantasy".

Love fantasies: Causing a target to fall into love fantasies and lose judgment.

Loren opens up the realm of empathy.

Loren used abilities such as bluffing and flirting on Fatina.

Fatina's favorability for Loren has increased dramatically!

Loren received Fatina's gift of "Forced Return to the City Orb"!

Loren used his self-created ability "Forced Raiders".

Forced Raiders: You can use this ability on your strategy target, which can greatly increase his/her favorability towards you in the short term, but it is easy to expose the disadvantages over time.

Fatina's favorability for Loren has increased dramatically!

She's added a new gift—

Reflection Helmet (which causes the wearer to reflect all spells below Tier 5);

Strong Vest (gives the wearer +1 Strength and +1 Constitution);

Griffon's Sword (can summon a griffon to fight for itself or become one's mount, while the sword is unusually sharp);

Bracers of Dragon Scales (provides the wearer with an additional eight points of armor and increases energy regeneration rate);

Dragon's Breath Potion (a throwable that summons a Dragon's Breath in the target area, destroying all living creatures in the area);

Ascending to the clouds (greatly increases movement speed and gives the wearer the ability to double jump);

……

Seeing that Luo Lan was quietly wiping away tears, he easily deceived a large number of treasures from the green dragon Fatina.

Matthew and Carmella were stunned!

What kind of tomb do you have the ability to rob?

It's enough to stare at all kinds of dragon girl strategies every day......

A few minutes of effort.

Loren had more than a dozen magical items and equipment in his hands.

He couldn't take it himself, so he threw it to Matthew and Carmela.

The two of them were like Loraine's servants, and their expressions were numb, carrying large bags and small bags.

And Fatina over there seemed to be still immersed in sadness.

I want to add something to Lorando.

I'm afraid he will have an accident.

It's just that in the process, Matthew also finds that her movements are becoming more and more sluggish.

Obviously.

This is Fatina's subconscious resistance to Loraine's strategy.

But Luo Lan is obviously a master of this, and he is extremely accurate in grasping proportions.

"It's time for us to go, dear."

Lorain grabbed Fatina's hands, and the group made their way to the drawbridge.

He gave a look and motioned for Matthew and the others to go first.

It wasn't until they had walked a long way out that Lorain suddenly let go and hugged Fatina.

In the surprised gaze of the green dragon girl.

Lorain smiled and kissed Fatina lightly.

The latter had a happy expression on his face, and he almost fainted on the spot.

By this time.

Fatina could no longer maintain human transfiguration.

Her body was constantly elongated, and she quickly turned into a real green dragon!

"Don't go, people still have to kiss!"

The green dragon is unrelenting.

Look at the monster covered in turquoise scales in front of you.

Loren kissed him with great ethics.

He kissed Fatina three times between her mouth and nostrils before she resisted her discomfort and rushed across the drawbridge.

Until the backs of the three completely disappeared at the entrance on the other side of the drawbridge.

Fatina slowly reviewed the gods:

"Just ...... Why do I feel so happy? ”

"Why don't I remember what that man looked like?"

"Wait, I can't even remember his name!"

"I'm not going to be seduced by a human, am I?"

The green dragon lay on the edge of the cliff for a long time.

Suddenly.

She raised her head, and Fatina's angry and poignant voice echoed throughout the underground space:

"My treasure!"

"Damn humans, how dare you play with my feelings!"

"When you come out, I will definitely break you into pieces!!"

……

The other side of the suspension bridge.

Entrance.

The three of them hadn't actually gone far, so they also heard Fatina's roar.

"Now I have to slay the dragon."

Matthew sighed.

Carmella glared at Loren with a scumbag look.

The latter, while handing out the stolen goods to his companions, said innocently:

"You two don't think she's really some kind of innocent girl, do you?"

"As far as I know, the green dragon Fatina likes to seduce bards with her love of literature and art, and the poets she plays with her feelings are not fifty but thirty, and most importantly, she often invites down-and-out poets to come to the lair to play the piano and blow the flute, but she never pays!"

"Well, she actually paid for it on the surface, and she was quite generous and generous, but the gold coins that Fatina gave to others, each of them had a "gold-seeking" spell, and it didn't take long for these gold coins to grow wings and run back to her hand automatically."

"I'm doing justice for other poets!"

"And I guess the reward she gave us in advance also placed this kind of secret curse."

Matthew pulls out a gold coin.

Perception followed by no discovery.

He then used a spell to identify it, but found nothing.

Eventually, he used equilibrium perception to discover that the coin was passive at the level of the element field.

"Very powerful and hidden dragon magic."

"Even if you put money in a space item, they will automatically fly away?"

Matthew asked.

"That's not all!"

Lorraine emphasized:

"These gold coins that have been enchanted with alchemy will not only fly away on their own, but will also activate other gold coins on your body, and then fly away together!"

Matthew's heart tightened when he heard this.

He's got a lot of gold on hand right now!

If she was really abducted by Fatina, it would not be a problem that dragon slaying could solve!

Carmela also took out a gold coin and perceived:

"He's right."

"This should be the spell created by the primeval green dragon, which belongs to a branch of dragon magic, and it seems to be related to Fei Capital's spell."

Is Swire Green Dragon related to Fei Capital?

Matthew made a secret note.

"So what are we going to do with the gold coins that are going to fly away?"

He asked.

"Just take a beating!"

Carmella said calmly.

Loren was even more relaxed:

"Do you have a crucible?"

Matthew nodded.

How can a serious mage go out without a crucible?

Although he is a necromancer, he also has a good-looking crucible.

"Just melt it in the pot."

Loren snapped his fingers.

"But there's no hurry yet, as far as I've observed, the magic spell won't take effect until at least three to five days later, and it's too slow to cook a little bit in a crucible, maybe we'll find a melting pot to stew in one go!"

said.

He pulled out a box of matches from a large pile of magical items that Fatina had gifted.

In the dark space.

Lorain slid a magic match slightly.

A bright yellow light flashed.

In the darkness, someone seemed to be whispering a magic spell.

Then three flashes of fire flashed over their heads.

Three magical creatures wrapped in flames came from the void, and they surrounded Loran with great humility.

Matthew saw it really.

That's three high-level fire demons!

The fire demon illuminated the way ahead, and the vision of the three of them instantly widened a lot.

Matthew saw that he was in a deep alley.

At the end of the alley is a pile of ruins.

In front of the ruins, there is a road that runs through the east and west.

The alley is lined with tall walls covered with wet moss and strange barbed vines.

The space here is extremely cramped.

From time to time, you can still hear the sound of water drops not far away.

A feeling of dampness came over the face.

Many footprints can still be seen on the ground, a considerable number of which have just been left behind, apparently the footprints of peers.

"Let's go."

After entering the Emerald King City, Luo Lan consciously assumed the position of a wanderer, and he took the lead with three fire demons.

Matthew and Carmella followed him.

Luo Lan looked back as he walked and asked:

"When I was attacking the green dragon just now, I sensed a strange threat, but when I looked back, I found that it was you, Matthew, did you have any strange thoughts just now?"

Matthew quickly shook his head in denial.

He couldn't tell Loren that when the other party was attacking the Green Dragon, the Minotaur Realm suddenly resonated, and Matthew could sense that if he intervened at that time, he would be able to make leaps and bounds in the Minotaur Realm, right?

Fortunately, he restrained this impulse-

This kind of thing is completely unnecessary.

And Matthew didn't have the confidence to snatch love from the hands of a deceitful demigod.

"It's good if not, it seems that I've been in a hurry lately, and I've been so depressed that I've had some hallucinations."

Speaking of which.

Luo Lan seemed to remember some bad memories and hurriedly shook his head vigorously.

The three of them successfully came to the ruins.

Loren carefully examined the footprints on the ground:

"The dense footprints on the top should be the kobold, and he walked to the west, which is the direction of the entrance to the troll dungeon."

"The people from Sword Winter City also went there."

"Here in the east, there are some particularly large footprints, which should be ordinary people deliberately wearing oversized shoes, hehe, the peers of Gem Bay are quite particular!"

"This direction should be the core of the Emerald King City."

"Well, I can't go wrong......"

"I found some bone meal, and the necromancers in White Rock City also went in this direction."

Lorain stretched his waist and stood up:

"So, East or West?"

He looked at the two of them indifferently.

Carmela was silent for a moment, then turned to Matthew:

"You decide, I have a choice dilemma."

Matthew looked at the bald priest in amazement:

"Don't you have an oracle?"

Carmela said helplessly:

"After entering the Emerald King City, my contact with the god of the first moon has become intermittent, and although I can feel the divine power he has bestowed upon me, the oracle is no longer clear."

"Without the guidance of the gods, I myself do have a very serious difficulty in choosing!"

"So it's up to you!"

Matthew thought about it, and finally looked in the direction of the bone meal floating:

"Let's send off our peers in White Rock City first."

……

The ruins of the Emerald King City.

On the west side of the Dream Promenade, there is a fairly spacious space.

A group of people from Jewel Bay were making a big noise.

One of the men and one of the women quickly took off their oversized uniforms and the padding in their uniforms, and along the way, they lost their oversized shoes.

The man scolded while undressing:

"Say whatever you want, I've had enough of pretending!"

"I'm a dignified archaeologist, and I have to disguise myself as a tomb robber to have the opportunity to enter the Emerald King City, which is really a shame for mankind!"

"Don't stop me and Daisy, Stanley! I don't care what you say, I'm going to the elven palace first! ”

"I'm going to get my everything back, not to go west and explore some troll's dungeon!"

"To tell you the truth, I have no interest in the Troll Dungeon! I just want to pursue the culture and art of the elves, that is the real beauty! ”

The middle-aged man's voice was very sharp, especially when he scolded the street, which made people feel indescribably disgusted and uncomfortable.

The remaining three immediately frowned.

Their faces were very ugly.

Especially the leader of the grave robbers named Stanley.

But he was still holding back his anger and trying to persuade the other party:

"We have a deal, Mr. Linden."

"You must find the Crown of Sin for us first, and then you can go wherever you want!"

"This is the condition for our team to cover you and your wife, Lady Daisy, to enter the Emerald King City!"

"This is what we said beforehand!"

Lyndon scolded angrily:

"Beforehand? Do I have any other options than working with you? No! ”

"Since I don't have a choice, then I'm forced!"

"Since it was forced, of course I can regret it at any time!"

Stanley, a well-known tomb robber in Gem Bay, and two of his men were stunned when they heard this.

"You want to play tricks?"

Seeing Linden, who had finished undressing, retreated step by step.

Stanley was furious and grabbed his wife, Daisy.

He glanced at Daisy.

Although this woman is in her forties, she has a good figure and still has charm.

When she was caught by Stanley, she subconsciously let out a humming sound and the other three tomb robbers couldn't help but tremble.

"I'm telling you, Lindon, if you don't cooperate with me, I'll kill your wife first and then ......"

However, Stanley's words were not finished.

Lyndon didn't know where to pull out a "sprint" scroll and tore it open.

There was a burst of blue light on his body, and he was gone in a blink of an eye!

The three Stanley were dumbfounded again.

Only Linden's voice still echoed in their ears:

"I'm sure Daisy can understand what I'm doing!"

"It's all about art!"

"I will witness the wonders of the elves, the greatest work of art they have left behind in the world!"

"No, I'm the greatest work of art they've left in the world...... Hahahaha! ”

One of Stanley's men tugged at his heavy camouflage suit and asked:

"Brother-in-law, what now?"

"Professor Lyndon has escaped, and we don't have the expertise to go to the Troll Dungeon......"

Stanley scolded angrily:

"How many times have you said it, don't call me brother-in-law outside!"

The subordinate shrank his head:

"Okay, sister...... Top dog! ”

Stanley looked at Daisy viciously:

"Your husband left you and ran away, what else do you have to say?"

Daisy blinked:

"Why don't you change the order and kill first?"

As she spoke, she shook her shoulders, revealing a large snow-white on her chest, which was only wearing a vest.

Akira's Stanley and two of his men had sore eyes.

"No, your husband left you and ran away, and you weren't shocked or sad at all?"

Stanley was somewhat puzzled.

Daisy was very calm about this:

"I know what kind of person he is, and of course it's not surprising."

"His fanaticism about history, especially the history of the elves, is beyond the imagination of normal people."

The subordinate who spoke earlier couldn't help but complain:

"But Mr. Linden is too irresponsible!"

Daisy smiled:

"That's right, but who made him my husband?"

"Is there any smoke?"

The man pulled out a few cigarettes.

Stanley glared and said:

"Forgot our professional code? You can't smoke in the grave, it's disrespectful to the dead! ”

Daisy glanced at him amorously:

"This is just the remains of the Emerald King Capital, what kind of tomb is it?"

"Here's one."

Stanley thought for a moment:

"I can meet your conditions, but you have to tell me what the hell is going on?"

"Especially the part about Linden, I need his knowledge of history!"

The little brother served it in time, and helped light the fire by the way.

Daisy swallowed the clouds for a while, and her eyes gradually blurred:

"You say Lindon, he's a guy who is obsessed with history."

"He used to be a history teacher, and he was a mage apprentice for a while, but he didn't have the talent to become a mage after all, so he was persuaded to quit by the mage tower."

"Since then he has become cynical, believing that it is his human identity that limits him, and that if he were an elf, everything would have been different."

"Probably it was under this obsession that Lyndon had a lot of fantasies, and he actually felt that he was the reincarnation of an extremely powerful elven king!"

This fantasy intensified, and soon a whole set of self-consistent logic was formed in Linden's mind.

"Since then, he has been obsessed with chasing the history of the ancient elves, and he once visited the Jade Court, only to be considered an insult to the Wood Elves for his remarks, so he was ordered not to enter the Jade Court forever."

"Of course he is not reconciled, he told me that as long as he can enter the Emerald King City, he will be able to find a treasure and restore the power of the Elf King."

"He also said that he would make me his princess!"

Daisy's narration is very restrained and calm.

But what the three of Stanley listened to was a numb scalp:

"So Lyndon is actually a madman?"

Daisy nodded:

"Pretty much."

Stanley looked at the amorous Daisy in disbelief:

"Then why did you marry him?"

Daisy narrowed her eyes:

"Maybe it's because he takes care of me a lot of business, maybe it's because I occasionally pretend to believe in his fantasies, and that's how we get together."

"How?"

"A prostitute who is in a bad mood, an old dartman, can't you get married because of love?"

Speaking of which.

She threw away the cigarette butt and skillfully pulled the vest of her jacket:

"Didn't you just say you were coming?"

"Who's going first?"

The two men swallowed.

The man who spoke earlier whispered:

"Brother-in-law, it's inconvenient for you, I'd better come, I'll do it for you!"

Stanley's qi and blood surged.

He just wanted to say something.

Suddenly.

A miserable cry came from the direction where Lyndon had fled!

"Let's go and see!"

Stanley gave an order, and the three of them immediately came over.

In desperation, Daisy followed.

can be in the process of running.

She suddenly felt a warmth on her shoulders, but it was Stanley who took the time to drape his coat over her.

Ran through a street corner.

A group of four people found Lyndon.

And a mummy that lifted one of his hands.

Not far away.

There were also three necromancers with cold eyes standing.
