Chapter 36: I can't go on

Ember was a little annoyed, he knew that it was better to let the robber pull out his sword, but unfortunately there was no early knowledge in the world, and the robber's body was still lying on the side, not yet cold.

In fact, if the dragon lies down, its claws can barely reach the sword, but that posture is a little unsightly, and the red dragon is a little embarrassed in front of everyone.

The mercenaries and caravan guys looked at each other, and no one dared to move forward.

The atmosphere was a little stiff for a while, and the red dragon suddenly remembered that it was said that hundreds of years ago, a powerful dragon was killed by the enemy at the last moment by pulling out a sword inserted in the dragon's body at some unknown age.

It is said that the sword was full of dragon blood and became a peerless divine weapon, invincible and invincible.

Thinking of this, Yu Yan shook his head, when will he be able to get rid of this cranky problem?

At this moment, the red dragon felt a pain in his stomach and almost roared, and looked down to see that the sword had been pulled out, and the person who drew the sword was none other than the female mercenary leader Rita who was called "All-Metal Slut".

"It's you. The red dragon said.

"It's said that bathing in dragon blood can turn into steel and iron bones, is it true?" Rita asked suddenly, and at the same time reached out to catch a drop of dragon blood from the wound.

"Who said that?" the red dragon looked at the blond-haired young woman, "Dragon's blood is not something that can be touched casually. ”

Despite her fame, Rita is still a young man under the age of thirty.

"I saw it in a book when I was a kid. Rita replied.

"I know that dragon's blood has twelve uses, but none of them are like steel and iron bones. Most of them are the fields involved in alchemy. The red dragon said eloquently: "If someone really bathes directly with untreated dragon blood, it will be light to be corroded and a layer of skin will be removed." ”

The people around them watched as a giant dragon chatted with a mercenary with a dragon blood stained sword.

......

After this great change, the caravan did not lose much of its goods due to the escape of the robbers and the fire fighting of the fire dragons, but the number of people was greatly reduced.

Because of the more than two hundred caravan guys, about a quarter were robbers in disguise, and the rest were killed by robbers in the battle. So now the caravan is very short of manpower, and some of the hundreds of carriages will have to be abandoned if there is no accident.

In terms of mercenaries, it is much better, except for the eight people who died in battle, although most of the mercenaries drank poisoned drinks, but fortunately, it was only a short-term non-lethal anesthetic, and here we have to thank the robbers. Except for a few people who fell to the ground because of bad luck and were hacked to death by the robbers, everyone else gradually regained their mobility at night.

Overall, if the Red Dragon hadn't arrived in time this time, no one here would have seen the moon tonight.

Regardless of whether these people were sincere or fake thanks, Ember was still quite happy to listen to it, and felt that the sense of accomplishment was about to burst.

The leader of the caravan, Jolien, slapped a big fart in front of everyone - giving the red dragon a dozen carts of goods that had been vacant after the attrition.

Something was given away for free, although the value was not high, but Ember was still quite happy, just to replenish the almost empty space ring.

Due to the need to clean up the battlefield and bury the dead in battle, the caravan rested in place for a day.

After dinner, the red dragon chose a comfortable position and lay down in a corner of the camp.

"Suffocate Lao Tzu!Can't you learn how to cleanse yourself!" The little snake tore the fluff in the red dragon's ears again.

(Note: Body cleansing, one of the low-level spells, the basic effect is equivalent to taking a bath, and the continuous effect is to keep the body fresh throughout the day, a necessary spell in the hot summer.) )

Although the fluff is very uncomfortable to be bitten, but Yu Yan just doesn't want to learn the spells in "What Sutra", the Long family is a red dragon, so he doesn't want to learn those things that seem to be blue dragons should be learned (looking at Xiaolan's unhappy appearance, Yu Yan feels very cool, and the brackets are deleted).

"Xiaolan, do you have any other requirements besides letting me learn those spells of yours?"

"I want 100,000,000 drops of the dragon's essence blood!"

“...... Anything else?"

"I'm going to get stronger!"

"Is there any other way for you to become stronger than the dragon essence blood?"

"Nope!"

This kind of bickering is like a daily routine, almost never stopped for thirty years, but most of them ended with the victory of the red dragon, because the little snake was too tired to speak.

......

When perceiving a person coming towards them, the pair of dragons and snakes who don't know whether it is a symbiotic or parasitic relationship freezes.

"You may not recognize me, Lord Ember. The person said calmly.

Ember looked up and down the big man, the other party's face and voice were indeed very unfamiliar, but the dragon generally didn't recognize people by these two things: "Your name is Kit, right?"

"You still know me!" said Kitt, a little surprised.

"In the eyes of dragons, humans all look the same. The red dragon smiled and explained, "Although you have changed a lot from thirty years ago, there is one thing that will not change, and that is smell. ”

"The dragon's sense of smell is amazing!" Kitt gave a thumbs up, "Lord Ember, you saved our lives today." Those words of thanks are in vain, and I know the dragon likes this. ”

Red Dragon smiled and accepted the money bag handed over by the mercenary leader: "I like to deal with people like you." ”

After a few more polite words, Kit left, and the red dragon looked at the other mercenary standing not far away: "Is there anything wrong with you? ”

The mercenary hiding behind a tree had no choice but to come over: "Dragon... Hello adults, my name is Berwyn. Forgive me for taking the plunge, aren't all fire dragons evil?"

When Yu Yan heard this, he didn't get angry but rolled his eyes and said, "I don't think you're too young, how could you ask such a stupid question?"

"What do you mean by that?"

"There is no absolute good or evil in the world, it's just that you humans are used to portraying other creatures as representatives of evil. The red dragon said: "I can't explain it if I have more, anyway, I am a good dragon." ”

The lone mercenary hesitated for a moment and said, "Would you like to hear a story?"

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

"I've slain a few dragons. Berwyn took a deep breath and said, "Wurm, to be exact." They slaughtered several villages and towns, killed tens of thousands, and scorched the earth everywhere they passed...... They are sapient, but I saw with my own eyes a fiery dragon devouring a child. ”

Seeing that the red dragon was listening carefully, Berwyn continued: "I used to be a gold-level officer in the Caesar Empire, and more than thirty years ago, I led a team to fight against four fire dragons, and although I finally killed them, my men were almost killed and wounded, and I was also poisoned. Later, although I picked up a life, my health was not as good as before, because of the merits and demerits, I finally quit the army and became a mercenary in order to make ends meet. ”

After listening to this story, the red dragon's eyes flashed: "What do you want me to do?"

"I hope you can find out the origin of those fire dragons if you have time, I don't think it's easy. Berwyn put a heavy bag of money in both hands and said solemnly.
