Section 25 Lizardmen
"Come in, arrogant young man!"
A deep voice said.
Lance smiled slightly, but he did not give up his vigilance, he took Bonnie and slowly walked into the house of bones.
The hill of dwarf bones is spacious and cool, with long tables and counters scattered around.
A few candles held up a dim light, Lance extinguished the glowing ladybug, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "I almost forgot that lizardmen don't know night vision, just low-light vision." ”
An old voice rang out from the depths of the room: "It seems that your teacher has sued you a lot. ”
A crunching sound sounded, and with this sound, a tall figure sat in a wheelchair and slowly turned out.
"Mr. Marlowe, say hello to you on behalf of my teacher Amman, I am his student, you can call me Lance. This is my valet of mine. ”
Seeing the lizardman himself, Lance became polite.
After all, he knew that it was Amman's reputation that could stop the lizardmen from messing around, not his own strength.
The lizardman Marlowe is curled up in a wheelchair, his skin is yellowish, different from the usual cyan. His eyes were cloudy, but when his pupils shrank into a line, it gave people a particularly dangerous feeling.
This Marlowe, who had been a witch doctor of a tribe of lizardmen, had been defeated in an internal battle among the lizardmen, so he retired and set up a small post - or shop - in the tunnel leading from the surface to the underground - and of course occasionally worked as a bandit den.
In other words, what the House of Bones means to travelers. It all depends on their background and strength.
Originally, a wizard like Lance, the attitude of the lizardman witch doctor was probably elusive, but after moving out of the name of Amman, it became different.
Marlowe sat in a wheelchair and squinted at Lance: "You are very smart, since you are Amman's apprentice, I will not let my two sons come out to greet you...... If there's something to do, just say it. ”
Lance sneered in his heart, and his two sons, I'm afraid that they are subordinates brought out of the lizardman tribe, right?
If you don't move out of Amman. This guy can't figure it out. In the materials left behind in Amman. Lizardman Marlowe is definitely a tricky character.
"This guy is very dangerous, and this attitude is probably just to confuse me. Maybe there will be temptations in a moment. ”
Lance was secretly vigilant in his heart.
On the surface, he smiled and said, "Mr. Marlowe, I'm actually here to buy something." ”
The lizardman witch doctor also laughed: "Of course. Do you want to go back to the path of your teacher? Of course, it requires something special. After all, it's rare to see a friendly elder like me. Regardless of the subterranean race, you Denis don't have much affection...... It's the same even for the Holts, who have the same roots. Not to mention the gray dwarves and the black elves. ”
Lance said without moving: "I didn't follow the same path that the teacher used to be. After all, I don't have as much strength as him, but he gave me some pointers before I left. He said, Mr. Marlowe, you will be willing to help me. And after a while. He would personally visit some of the best friends he had made underground. ”
This remark is pure Lance nonsense, Amman has long been hanging, but these people in the underground world don't know it.
In Amman's notes, he fought his way through the Underworld, so along the way, there were many people who were in awe of the name.
The cunning lizardfolk are one of them.
Sure enough, as soon as he heard Lance's words, the lizardman's tone couldn't help but tremble a little: "Is that so? Why does your teacher have the time to return to the underground world?"
Lance laughed, "Teacher, I just recently became a legendary wizard, so I have time to spare. ”
As he spoke, Lance took out a pitch-black notebook and shook it: "This is the witchcraft experience he recently wrote, but at present, I don't know much about it." ”
The lizardman's eyes narrowed, and he could feel a terrifying aura from Lance's flashing notebook!
That's the power of a legendary wizard!
"Could it be that man has really been promoted to a legendary wizard?" said Marlowe was shocked.
The lizardman wizard himself is a third-level spellcaster, and when the two of them were both third-level, there was a big battle, and the result is naturally needless to say.
"Now that he's a legend, I'm afraid I'll never get a chance to beat him again. The lizardman witch doctor sighed in his heart.
On the surface, his attitude towards Lance was much softer:
"Then I really need to congratulate Mr. Amman. Anyway, is there anything I need help with?"
This time, Marlowe was visibly much more enthusiastic.
In his opinion, Lance, an ordinary second-level wizard, if he was not covered by a legendary wizard, how could he dare to swagger into the underground world?
And the legendary atmosphere in that notebook is absolutely impossible to fake.
"Bileg's notebook is still quite capable of bluffing......" Seeing that his plan had succeeded, Lance said with a smile, "I have already said before, my personal maid and I need a batch of equipment to survive in the underground world. ”
The lizardman witch doctor groaned for a moment, looked at Lance and the two, and pushed the wheelchair into the depths of the House of Bones:
"Come with me. ”
......
Half an hour later, Lance had got what he wanted.
Two Fraudster Masks, one of the lizardmen's most prized demonized items, were so valuable that he only gave Lance a seven-fold discount for Amman's sake.
Lance didn't have any objection to this, as long as he could buy something. However, he no longer had any magic stones in his hands, so he offered to exchange them for other resources.
There was still some leftover from the original batch of fog dragon treasures, and for Marlowe, the lizardman, anything linked to dragons was very precious, and he was naturally happy to exchange them for Lance.
And. Seeing that Lance easily took out such a precious resource, Marlowe was even more sure that this guy was Amman's disciple. Carry a few dragon scales and a few bottles of dragon blood with you - I'm afraid only the disciples of legendary wizards can be treated like this, right?
The effect of the fraudster's mask is that he can freely change his appearance according to his mental power.
In the surface world, this thing doesn't really do much. But in the underworld, where racial strife is very complicated, this thing is very valuable.
Although Marlowe repeatedly insisted that the enchantment on the mask was not permanently solidified, but only lasted for two months, Lance was already satisfied.
To know. In the underworld. All races are fighting to the death for some survival resources, among which the spellcasters are fighting for precious cultivation resources, and there are lives of all races here: the ancient cousins of the Denis - the Holders, the ancient branch of the dwarves of the Black Gold Castle - the gray dwarves, the mutant elves - the black elves, and a large number of other races, such as lizardmen, kobolds, cavemen, and even the occasional succubus and mind flayer.
Under such a chaotic big picture. A surface man. It is impossible to walk in various places in a grand manner.
At times like these. The fraudster mask acts as a good cover.
The body could be covered with a cloak, and after examination, Lance was sure that there were no other hands or feet on the mask. He and Bonnie put on masks.
Marlowe reminded at the right time: "This generation is the territory of the lizardmen. ”
Lance nodded, and their faces immediately began to change, their eyes narrowed like lizards, and their facial skin became rough and turned blue-gray.
As long as no one else breaks their cloaks, they will generally be treated as passing lizardfolk travelers.
And once they reach other territories, they can manipulate the deceptive abilities on the mask, transform into other races, and integrate into them smoothly.
It was precisely because he saw from Amman's notes that Marlowe had fraudster masks to buy that Lance boldly chose the underground route.
......
In addition to this, Lance also purchased a large number of underground essentials from the Lizardman Witch Doctor.
And when he bought ten copies of the bondage ropes that the black elves used to catch the rock lizards, Marlowe asked very strangely: "The rock lizards have infrared vision and are the best mounts in the ground, but the problem is, this creature only obeys the orders of the black elves, and you are a Deni who buys these things all over?"
Lance looked at the brand-new rope in his hand, and estimated that this batch of goods was also robbed by Marlowe from the hands of the unlucky black elves passing by, so he pretended to smile mysteriously:
"It's true that the rock lizards only obey the command of the black elves, but this is not difficult to solve, haven't you heard of a kind of [onomatopoeia] made by the gnomes, Mr. Marlowe?"
"Onomatopoeia?" "It is true that the black elves command the rock lizards through their unique generation skills, but the gnomes are already dead in this generation - you see, there are gnome bones everywhere, but it is difficult to find a living one." ”
Lance confidently said: "My teacher has already given me advice, and it is not difficult for me to get an onomatopoeia. ”
The lizardman witch doctor nodded. If it was Amman, he still believed it, that guy's strength was incredible, and although so many years had passed, he still remembered it vividly. It was under this deterrence that although the little guy in front of him seemed to be very oily, Marlowe still held back his thoughts of robbery.
He didn't want to mess with a legendary wizard. What's more, although he is old, his eyes are not flowery, and the badge on Lance's chest may not be recognized by ordinary people, but as a third-level spellcaster, he will definitely not admit it.
"MGM's appreciation...... To be able to get the appreciation of the Dead World Monarch, this kid is definitely not simple......"
Under Marlowe's deep gaze, the two sides completed all the deals, and Lance left the House of Bones with Bonnie.
Such a friendly deal between the two sides also allowed Lance to get a shortcut to the underworld from the lizard's mouth.
"Leaving the House of Bones and continuing east, there is a small cave thirty feet south of the third lizardmen collective tombstone passing by. ”
"There was a group of timid kobolds living inside, drive them away, and walk down the cave for a maximum of three days to reach the vicinity of the Bain River. (To be continued......)
