Chapter 111: The Return of Gordon
When Gordon had eaten and drunk enough, it didn't stay long in the volcanic cavern, as there was nothing to remember here.
It's warm and cozy, but Gordon craves movement.
After saying goodbye to the cat-in-person.
Gordon came to a relatively flat coastline on Rika Island.
It's a gentle, golden-skinned stretch of gravel.
It's a pity that there is no gold......
Gordon looked out to sea.
Before leaving, it remembered that there was one more thing to do, and that was the matter of turning into a fish, and it seemed to have eyeliner inserted.
Originally, I wanted to go to the bottom of the sea to collect the treasures of the dead fish-turned chieftain, but the slumber came too suddenly, and more than two months passed at once.
I'm afraid things have already gone in an unpredictable direction like a wild horse that has been unleashed.
"I don't know if the fish-turned man is still there!"
Gordon thought, and then began to summon the water in the agreed way.
To Gordon's surprise, less than five minutes later, the ugly-looking fish-turned family poked his head out in cringe.
When he saw the black dragon squatting on the beach, he was even more excited, and made a lot of movement on the sea.
It swam like a fish in the water toward Gordon, and when he got closer, Gordon heard the cowardly fish-like man speak.
"Great hosts! you are finally back!"
"Uh...... What's going on now?"
Gordon wanted to call its name, but suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to have asked its name again, and it chose to skip it directly, and began to ask about the changes in the fish-man tribe during this time.
"Master!woo~......"
The fishman heard Gordon ask, and both frog-like legs began to swing unconsciously, only to hear it tremble.
"When I first went down, I deceived them, saying that the chiefs were only meeting on the island, and that the feast was not over yet, and that it might be a little later. ”
"And then I sent the captive cat back to Ricka Island in the name of the chief, and they were convinced. ”
The fishman was still a little stammering, but after seeing Gordon's terrifying gaze, he quickly began to tell about the changes after Gordon's sleep.
And Gordon nodded slightly as he listened to the fish-turned man's narration.
It heard all this from Xinlut, and it seems that the fish-turned man in front of him still has some brains.
But now it's not so much concerned with this, but with the wealth it was underneath.
"And they found out?"
Gordon asked.
"Yes, great master, as you might expect, on the third day they noticed that something was wrong, and the fish-mans who had been sent ashore to inspect them had not returned, and they were in a commotion, and began to suspect me. ”
The fish-turned man flattered the black dragon in front of him, and after seeing that Gordon's expression was not unusual, he continued to explain quickly.
"And I, too, can only pretend that I don't know, and suggest that they go to the island to search. ”
"I'm a coward after all, and they never suspect me......"
"And then?"
Gordon asked, interrupting impatiently as it looked at the fragmented fish-shaped man in front of it.
"Then on the seventh day of discovering the abnormality, they left the place and turned into the home where the fish people depended for their livelihood......"
"Because they suspect that the island is cursed, they want to leave this cursed place. ”
"Master, no matter how much I persuade them, they will leave, and it is none of my business. ”
In front of Gordon, the fish-turned man has tried his best to show his best.
However, when he heard Gordon's next cold and emotionless questioning voice, it was still like falling into an ice cave, and his back was cold.
"So, the wealth is gone?"
Gordon's vertical pupils narrowed slightly, and he squinted as he looked at the fish-shaped man in front of him, whose head was already buried in the sand, and asked.
The reason why it called the fish to turn into a man before leaving was because it was concerned about this problem.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be in the mood to waste precious time here listening to a fish-turned nonsense.
"No, no, master, there's still wealth! I still have! The last time I entered, I secretly hid one! No one found out!"
The fish-turned man even defended himself, and the rapidity of his voice was a little distorted, as if he would be slapped to death by Gordon mercilessly if he said something slow.
"What about that thing?"
The coldness in Gordon's pupils eased, and he asked as he looked at the green-skinned creature with the head of a fish-headed frog.
"Master, I'll go down and get it now! I'll hide it in a crevice in the rock wall, soon!"
The fishman busily told Gordon that he would wait for it for five minutes and it would present it to Gordon.
Gordon naturally had no objections and nodded slightly.
"Hmm. ”
It wasn't worried about the fish turning into a man running away, after all, it was going to run early.
Five minutes later, the fish turned into a man who came to the beach from the sea wave again.
Carefully holding a long transparent glass bottle in both hands, he handed it to Gordon, which also contained objects.
"This is the most carefully placed thing in the chief's palace, it is very exquisite, it is taken from an ancient shipwreck treasure......"
The fishman cautiously explained to Gordon, but before he could finish speaking, he felt a light in his hand, and the glass bottle had reached Gordon's hook-like claws.
The paw carefully twisted the glass bottle and placed it in front of the vertical pupil to look at it.
Its expression was full of greed and curiosity, but the look of satisfaction could not be concealed.
This relieved the fish-turned man who was secretly observing, as if what it had secretly hidden was not bad, enough to please the real dragon in front of him.
It is also when the fish turns into a person in the strenuous psychological activity.
Gordon was also immersed in admiring the strange sight in the glass bottle.
In a transparent glass bottle, a miniature black-and-red three-masted galleon sinks and wafts in the blue waters of the bottle.
The style of this three-masted sailing ship is completely different from the sailing style of humans today.
Whether it is the bow or the mast, and the lines painted on the deck, they are all like products of the elven era, and even the cables are like vines, and they are dotted with green leaves.
And the two figures of Gordon's valuation make the ship in this glass bottle definitely not as simple as it seems.
This is also the reason why Gordon took it from the fishman at the first sight.
Glass bottle [500-700], three-masted galleon [7000-8000]
This is comparable to the price of a high-class magical artifact, and the same as the value of an ocean-going sailing ship capable of carrying hundreds of people.
Soon, Gordon also found this kind of ancient way of transporting ships in glass bottles in the Dragon's Legacy.
In this way, it is specially made by people from far inland to bring the finished ships to the sea.
The use of the glass bottle is also very simple, pour out the blue sea water in the glass bottle.
Then the ship will break through the glass bottle and appear in its full form.
"Where did this come from?"
Gordon asked, putting the glass bottle away, looking at the fish-turned man.
It stands to reason that the product of this style should have nothing to do with the creature of the fish-man.
"It was taken from the chief's room, the feline woman told me......"
Although the fish-turned man was puzzled, he still answered honestly.
But Gordon didn't mean that, it wanted to ask where the ship was found before the chieftain.
Again, it patiently repeated.
And the fish-turned man finally understood what Gordon meant, and shook his head.
"I don't know. ”
"I only know that the chief once went out with three priests before the last sacrifice to the goddess of the sea, and went out with the elites of the clan, and then only the chief and Vaughn sacrificed to come back, and the elites of the clan were also reduced by half, but when they returned, they had already brought enough sacrifices to the goddess and to feed the sea beasts......"
Seeing that the fish-turned man said this, Gordon could only ask the general direction, and after secretly remembering it in his heart, he let it go.
Gordon, who has finished the matter, no longer stays on Rika Island.
I just want to spread the dragon's wings and fly to the destination.
I found that my body was different from what it used to be, and my body of nearly thirty feet flew in the sky, and it was easy to be spotted by passing ships.
What's more, the entrance to its return is at the bottom of the sea, and it is inconvenient to fly in the sky.
So, Gordon, who is well versed in low-key ways, directly retracted his wings, jumped into the water, and dived into the water.
The huge body merges with the stacks of sea waves, indistinguishable from each other.
The huge dragon-shaped dark shadow in the sea water also gradually disappeared with the swaying waves.
......
Nina sat in the underwater cavern as usual, sitting in front of a high platform that had turned the altar into a desk, munching on the spell manual.
From her angle, she could clearly see the sea glowing under the light of the bonfire.
She could spot the slightest movement.
But Nina is now immersed in a sea of spells.
The day is her most focused time, and lately only at night will she be in a daze at the pool.
She's very motivated.
I don't know if Celia promised her not long ago.
When she is ready to unleash the Teleportation Technique, he will take her out to sea to find Gordon's promise.
Although Nina doesn't know much about the concept of [Teleportation], through the [Primer's Manual], she still knows the class level that should be possessed to release this spell.
At least they were all fourth-order, but this did not dampen Nina's enthusiasm, on the contrary, she was very serious, and began to rely on the books left by the former spellcaster, and began to learn spell knowledge and magic materials step by step.
In the past two months, she has mastered all the Zero Ring Spells left to her by Gordon, except for the [Light Technique], and is now working hard to analyze and read the basis of the One Ring Spell.
In preparation for the next learning of the first ring spell, she had already thought about what the spell to memorize would be in the future.
It was the spell scroll that Mr. Gordon had her buy in the alchemy shop.
In this case, I am indispensable, in Mr. Gordon's mind......
It was also in order to improve her competitiveness and to be able to go to sea as soon as possible to find Geton.
Under the high platform, the sea surface, which was originally as calm as ever, moved.
Strings of bubbling bubbles are like boiling water, and steaming wisps of white gas also float from the seawater.
Just when Nina was a little wary and looked at the sea with a hopeful gaze.
On the firelit sea, a huge shadow with the sound of rushing water rose from below the sea level and quickly relied on it.
It is completely the same height as the high platform.
A hideous black dragon head looked at the petite and weak girl in front of her, its vertical pupils were full of coldness and play, and let out a rather menacing dragon roar.
"Whew~"
"I didn't expect there to be a Dragonborn here!"
The black dragon made a cruel and indifferent voice, and the dark golden vertical pupils looked at the dragonborn girl in front of him without blinking.
And Nina, under the double bombardment of this gaze and roar, her body trembled slightly.
Gordon looked at the dragonborn girl like this, and there was a look of satisfaction in her cold eyes.
It was meant to surprise Nina.
When I saw her studying seriously underwater, I don't know why I felt the urge to scare it.
After all, now it looks very different, tripled.
Many of the places that were not developed during the young dragon's time began to take shape, and like the previous Luvia, she almost didn't recognize it.
So Gordon's image of himself is estimated to be able to scare Nina.
However, it was just when Gordon thought that he had pretended to be vicious and succeeded in scaring Nina.
However, the trembling dragonborn girl in front of her not only did not take half a step back, but took two steps in one step, and walked directly to the front of the high platform.
The girl in the white dress looked at the black dragon head that was still a little bit closer.
Without the slightest hesitation, she stood on her toes and hugged the dragon head that she couldn't hold anymore, with both hands.
Although it was only on the sides of the faucet, it was enough for her to feel the familiar matte touch.
Then he gently pressed his face above the tip of the black dragon's nose, covered with black scales.
Rubbing lightly, she felt the slightly rough yet familiar texture, and the sulfurous scent that erupted from her nostrils.
muttered.
"So I'm not dreaming!"
At the same time, Gordon's ears also heard the girl's unique coquettish cry.
"Welcome home, Mr. Gordon......"
"Nina, I miss you so much...... I really want to think about it. ”
The voice fell.
Gordon also felt the cold liquid seeping into the fine scales above the tip of his nose.
The vision focused again, and its dark golden vertical pupils looked fixedly at the dragonborn girl who looked up in front of it, and was already staring at it with tears in her eyes.
Gordon's fierce look gradually retracted, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't.
However, when Gordon saw the ground in the underground cavern behind Nina, which was densely paved with silver and gold coins.
The banter in the vertical pupils has long since dissipated, replaced by a touch of softness, a softness that is somewhat contrary to the hideous faucet.
Finally, Gordon first wiped the tears from Nina's face with the tip of his nose. And then the road.
"Me too, Nina!"
"Also...... Missed you so much. ”
As if he had mustered up enough courage, he finally said this sentence.
Then, the huge dragon wings behind it spread out in the underground cavern, and the front limbs with wing membranes wrapped the dragon wing girl in front of it, slightly clumsily and carefully.
Under the bonfire, the shadow of a man and a dragon embracing each other stretched very long on the rock wall...... It's long.
