The hustle and bustle of Nanhai Town is as bustling as ever, with children playing in the fountain pool in the center of the town.

From the window of the adventurer's house where Nina and Celia lived, she could see the bustle in the distance, but Nina didn't look at the children her age playing at this time.

Instead, he looked worriedly at the sky in the distance, hoping for something.

Finally, she waited for what she wanted to see.

A figure in the sun, reflecting the silver light, like a soaring silver eagle, flew by.

Nina hurriedly pushed open the window of the wooden fence and ushered in the afternoon breeze with a small dragon-like creature the size of her tiny head.

It was Liz who had traveled to Calando and returned.

It was anxious at this point, chirping, making Nina's heart churn.

Liz didn't even have time to drink the juice that Nina handed her, so she raised her left wing and pointed to the outline of the giant city in the distance.

In Nina's heart, the heart spoke.

"Nina, it's gone!"

"What's going on, say slowly. ”

Nina didn't care about the heaviness in her heart and hurriedly comforted her.

She has experienced Gordon's sudden disappearance, and she already has a certain immunity to the news of Gordon's disappearance, as long as she doesn't hear the exact news, she can accept it.

"When I was waiting for news above the sewer, I found that the Karandu Temple and the city guards had all come, entered the sewer, and carried out many, many charred corpses from below, and the black streets were all under martial law, and it was said that the corpses were all from the black streets, and I heard that the cultists did it!"

"Door-to-door. ”

"And...... Moreover, according to the people who came up below, there were traces of dragon blood below, which seemed to be vomited by the dragon from a very serious injury......"

flew back in one breath, and then said a long series of words, and Liz, who was originally thirsty, stretched out her head to drink water from the juice cup before continuing.

When I heard this, I hurried into the sewers, but the altar was under martial law, and I couldn't get in, and I waited a long time before I saw Lord Gordon, but I asked about the smell of burning lava in it, and Lord Gordon was indeed breathing there. ”

Lizzy was so adamant that it didn't notice Nina's increasingly pale face, and continued to herself.

"Then I didn't wait there, but I went to several other places, the underground caverns, the campfire hall, and a few other places that I frequented, but I couldn't find them, and I asked Sgeo and Grush, who didn't know where Lord Gordon had gone. ”

"It's as if it's all of a sudden gone!"

At this time, Celia also came up from downstairs, and at this time she was carrying her lunch, which was the signature dish of the three whitebait tavern next to her, pan-fried whitebait and lamb stewed broth with two soft loaves of bread, a very hearty lunch.

In the past few days, Celia and Nina's food has been bought from that tavern, and they can't get tired of eating it.

But after Celia pushed the door open, after seeing Lizzy return, she looked at Nina's melancholy expression again, and knew that maybe the news of Liz's return was not good this time.

She hurriedly put down the food in her hand, stepped forward a few steps, put her arms around Nina's shoulder, patted her, applied some comfort, and gave her a look not to worry.

Then she began to communicate with Liz, and after learning what had happened.

Celia quickly found the loophole and said to Nina.

"Don't worry! If the master is caught, it won't be just dragon blood, maybe the master is now cultivating in a safe place, Liz, you definitely didn't look for it seriously!"

"Right! Nina, master, it's going to be fine. ”

She didn't say it to Liz in her heart, but directly said to Liz in a more calm tone, as if to increase Nina's confidence in doing so. Although she doesn't have a bottom in her heart.

After all, that's true, but Gordon's disappearance, and the dragon's blood, must be reminiscent and worrying.

"Celia, you're talking nonsense again, I'm obviously looking for it very seriously, but I'm very respectful......"

Liz was dissatisfied with Celia's criticism, but after seeing Celia's serious eyes, she looked at Nina, who was pale and almost unsteady, and felt that she should shut up.

Juice seems to be a good got-gagging option.

At this time, Nina, who was pale, finally spoke.

"Sister Celia. ”

Her voice trembled a little.

"You...... Can you take me back to Calando and find Mr. Gordon?"

There was hope in her eyes.

"You must be able to, after all, Sister Celia, you have always been better than me, whether it is in the orphanage, or now, okay, sister?"

She clenched Celia's right hand with both hands, as if she had taken Celia as the last straw.

The disappearance of Gordon and the rumored dragon's blood made Nina, who was originally a little nervous and uneasy in the hotel, now suffer even more from gains and losses.

So much so that Celia's consolation made her wait a little longer, but she couldn't listen to it.

Her mind was now full of chaotic scenes, of Gordon vomiting blood and falling to the ground, of Mr. Gordon being caged and dying.

It all made her originally filled heart now empty, and fear and panic ran through it.

She was now tempted to go back to the sewers, to find that Mr. Gordon, to the places she had been before, to the dry rivers, to the sewers she had met for the first time, many, many more.

She thought she could find it.

But Celia broke free of her clenched hands and shook her shoulders violently, bringing Nina back to her senses.

The gray eyes represent softness and comfort.

"Wait a minute, Nina, it's still too anxious, after all, no news is the best news, and the master will definitely be fine!"

"And there's nothing you can do to help, even if you find it, will it be useful?"

Celia's soft words pierced people's hearts like knives, and in order to wake Nina from her confusion, she almost said that she was a useless person who couldn't help.

After all, the path of the sewers, in the two months that Gordon was away, she relied on her superb memory, and in the sewers, she recognized the route, which was not inferior to Nina, or even surpassed.

Hearing this, Nina collapsed to the ground in a dejected manner, she held back her tears, nodded her head indifferently, and let out a silent whimper.

Finally, Nina, whose voice had become hoarse, nodded at Celia.

"I see, Sister Celia. ”

Seeing Nina like this, Celia also hurriedly helped her up, patted Nina's back, the non-existent dust, and said softly.

"Come, let's eat! ”

But what she never expected was that Nina took out a ring from her dimensional bag with extremely agile speed.

It was the Gordon that had been given to Celia, who in turn had passed on the Ring of Servitude to her.

She put it on her hand, and instead of putting it on, she raised it up and said to Celia tremblingly.

"Sister Celia, help me, help me!"

Nina felt that Celia had a point, but she couldn't do what she said she was talking about.

Every second was tormented by fire for her, unlike last time, when it had the effect of the Ring of Slavery and the absence of any news.

But this time is different from the past, the dragon's blood, and the cultist, make it difficult for her heart to calm down.

She didn't want to blackmail her with the ring, and she didn't want to get there.

However, Nina's ridiculous behavior made Celia a little crying and laughing.

After all, Gordon is not dead, and it will not help anyone who wears this ring of servitude.

"Alas!"

However, Celia finally sighed.

"But master, I want to protect you! Now it must not have happened, otherwise it ......"

"But now that Mr. Gordon is missing and wounded, he must be helpless now, and desperately needs our help. ”

Nina's brain supplement has broken through the sky, and she said in great confidence.

"But what about your safety!"

"Sister Celia, I won't leave the hotel! Nina can go days without eating or drinking! I will definitely wait until you come back!"

After hearing that Celia was willing to go out, Nina's voice was a little higher.

"Let Liz stay with you, and I'll go and see Calando. ”

"Well, that's troublesome sister!"

Nina bowed her head and said embarrassedly, the ring on her hand was a little nowhere to put it, and finally Celia put it back in the dimensional bag for her.

"Then I'm leaving, you have to be careful!"

Celia said a simple goodbye, put on her hood, and left the hotel.

And Nina, in the transparent glass window on the second floor, looked at the gray-robed figure moving farther and farther away, silently clasped her hands and began to pray to the gods in the sky.

......

Calando, the aristocratic district.

George Norton looked at the defeated dragonborn man in front of him, his face was a little wrong, and he coughed a few more times.

Words such as "How is it possible!" and "How could it be!" came to his lips.

Wandering back and forth in the cramped basement, only the crisp and weak cry of the young dragon cries to accompany him.

Finally, George Norton looked at the young dragon in the glass case, and finally took out a thick book from the ring with a little hesitation.

In order to complete the perfect dragon transformation ceremony, he sold everything, but this one was not sold.

Because, its ritual, originated from this book.

But the price of using it was unusually expensive, so expensive that he didn't dare to open it.

But now, there is no other way.

George Norton opened the black book and asked why the last step could not be completed.

What is the best thing for him?

After asking these questions, the suction of the black books worsened his injuries, and the last quarter belonged to his soul, which was also sold outright, and returned to the devil after death.

On the blank page of the black book, a line also appeared, which made him feel a little like the original explosion.

That is, the dragonborn to be found must match the gender of the young dragon, and the age must be almost the same, not too different.

And this young dragon.

It's female.
