Chapter 36: The Sun Rises
Kurnok is the master of the Emerald Peaks, the Dark Queen's most loyal dogleg, and one of only six dragonborns.
It was awakened by the noise outside the fort, and it looked at the sky outside the fort window, and the dim purple light flickered outside the window, like a purple curtain was hung.
Kurnock couldn't help but pat his furry head and scratch the belly of the white flower covered in purple scales.
"Damn! Forget about being in the Elven Wilderness! There's no day or night!"
Kurnock muttered, lifted the quilt casually, got up from the soft rattan bed, and walked to the window of the three-story fort, looking down at the rubble square below the fort with a puzzled and inquiring gaze.
There was a black crowd there, rat people, werewolves, and Zedi bear people were all mixed in, surrounding a clearing in the square, noisy.
"Why are so many people getting together? Is it a holiday today? Or is there something going on?"
This kind of noise of Wuyang Wuyang is rare after coming to this underground, after all, the population of beasts is lonely.
Cursed and alone, they are somewhere between humans and beasts, blurring their boundaries.
For they do not know whether they are human or beast.
There was also little communication, and the last time there was such a big commotion was when the great master came to the valley.
But almost all the beasts were prostrate under its broad dragon wings, and they didn't dare to breathe for a breath, how could they dare to make such a blasphemous noise?
Or are the lizardmen coming again?
When the beasts were not under the control of the purple dragon, the relationship between them and the lizardmen was like gunpowder.
Local friction is a common thing, and bloody strife often occurs.
But it shouldn't have been such a peaceful scene.
Just as Kulnock was thinking, footsteps were heard outside the door of the chamber in the fort.
Soon, the door that had not been covered was pushed open, and an erect werewolf with blood-colored hair walked in, and said to Kurnok with a smile on his face.
"What's the matter!Curris! How many times have I said knock on the door before you come in!"
It looked at the werewolf and said a little helplessly, if it wasn't its own sibling.
Such a creature that dares to defy its identity and has no reverence will be torn to shreds by its claws!
"Hahaha! Brother, I'll tell you good news!"
"What's the good news?"
"The master has gone to the Demon Dark Realm, and only brought with him two of its most loyal dragonborns. ”
Kurnok frowned slightly, it licked like that, and in the end there was still no place for it by the owner's side, in fact, Kurnock was still a little anxious in his heart, so he looked at the blood-colored werewolf Curis, intending to hear what the so-called good news was from its mouth?
"The young black dragon that the owner asked for, a ratman has caught it! It's in the square!"
Curris didn't hide it either, and told Kurnock directly.
"What!"
Kurnock was shocked, and then he showed joy that the young black dragon had been found, which was indeed uncompromising good news.
But being caught by a rat-man is a bit fantastical.
"I've lost a few good hands! Bright last time seems to be dead!"
Curris added that this allowed Kurnock to recover slightly.
It's pretty much the same, even a young dragon, to be honest, isn't an ordinary nezumi scout that can be caught single-handedly.
"And the one who survived...... Anyway, it's a fool! Hahaha, brother, do you know?"
The Scarlet Werewolf bared its fangs, and a grim smile hung over its lips, clearly in a happy mood right now.
"How?"
"It said it didn't want the credit, and wanted to auction off the young black dragon, and it would hold it in the square below! ”
"Let's take enough money and go to the auction, hahaha!
Curris said, his legs couldn't stand straight, he half sat on the ground, and laughed.
And Coulnock was slightly surprised.
"It actually wants to sell this opportunity to its owner to someone else?
Even if it is blessed by the dragon bloodline, it is a little difficult to understand the operation of this rat man.
Don't want the wealth you have in hand, but you want to give it to others?
"Hmph, this is normal, don't talk about me, even if it's the stupid bear of Falud, it will do it, now that the master is not here, it can't keep the young black dragon!"
Curris cracked his mouth open, hehe explained with a smile.
It still has some praise for that rat man in its heart, and there are not many rat people who know the current affairs so well in the Cuifeng Valley, and it is a pity to use it as a scout.
Maybe you can put it around, be a personal guard, and occasionally listen to it tout, and when you get tired of it, you can eat it, and then the wealth will still be it.
Thinking of this, its mouth cracked even bigger, and the sticky mucus on its teeth became transparent silk threads, and saliva couldn't stop flowing from its mouth.
"How long does it take to start?" asked Kurnock.
"I said I would have to wait for the others to prepare the funds, probably in an hour. ”
Curris hurriedly said that as soon as he heard the news, he had come to inform his brother Kurnock, who was a purple dragon dragonborn.
The purpose was obvious, he wanted his brother to help him.
After all, there are only a few people in the entire Cuifeng Valley who can afford to buy this young black dragon.
"Berserk Bear" Farud, "Cave Ghost" Missis, and "Crimson Claw" "Lord of the Emerald Peak" Kurnok.
It also wants to be like its brother, and it also wants to rely on the bloodline of the great master, the purple dragon, to strengthen itself.
However, this has to please the owner, and the young black dragon is obviously a good stepping stone.
"Alright, I got it!"
Kurnock saw Curris's appearance and knew what it meant, and waved his paw to signal it to stand back.
Curris, on the other hand, was overjoyed, hurriedly retreated, and closed the door when he left, closing it very lightly.
Because it knows that as long as the brother does not explicitly refuse, on the surface, it promises to help itself.
"Dragon Vein!"
"I can become a dragon-veined werewolf too!"
"Really...... It's so cool!"
Curris, who was walking in the corridor of the fort tower, shook his fist, his joy was overflowing, and he couldn't help but get on all fours and run wildly in the corridor, so as to vent his inexplicable longing.
......
"Three hundred and thirty-seven, three hundred and thirty-eight......"
Gordon, who had turned into a rat man, propped himself on the vine cage with one hand, his rat eyes dripping around, and began to find out how many people had come to participate in this beast man valley.
Through the suggestion technique, it knew that the total number of beasts in the Cuifeng Valley was about five hundred, and three fifths of them had already arrived.
I believe that with the fermentation of time, more than 80% of the people in Cuifeng Valley will come to participate in such an auction.
"Then ...... then"
Gordon's eyes lit up slightly, as if he had thought of something, and he couldn't hide his joy, so that the other beasts couldn't help but shake their heads when they saw it.
This rat man was so lucky that he actually caught the young black dragon that the owner named him.
This reward will definitely allow it to live as a rat and a rat in the Cuifeng Valley.
Gordon, on the other hand, stood on his feet, counting the beasts who continued to move closer to the square.
While counting silently, he said in a voice that could not be heard from several meters away.
"Wait, wait, wait. ”
"More people!"
"Don't rush!"
This seems to be said to the beast-incarnated man, but in fact, it is also said to the young black dragon who is hidden near Gordon and has been pretending to pass out in the cage.
When Tilramtes heard this, he lost hope that he had an opinion of Gordon.
It was already inclined to be a mad dragon, after all, only a mad dragon felt that it could wipe out the huge Cuifeng Valley without alarming the people nearby.
Not to mention strength, let's just talk about the movement of lava breath, and there is no way to hide it.
The light of the fire produced by the burning of the flame will definitely become the brightest place in the underground world, and when the time comes, no one will be unnoticed.
Therefore, it only hopes that when the fight starts, it will be able to take advantage of the chaos and escape.
When the time comes, rendezvous with Didick and hide somewhere else, it will never want to encounter this mad dragon again!
......
One hour, Gordon looked at the personal panel, ready to go [Death] desperately.
Standing on the platform set up in the square, facing the beastly humanity that oppressed the black.
"Auction, start!"
"But the first lot is not the young black dragon behind me, but the news of another black dragon. ”
"The starting price is a silver coin, or the equivalent. ”
As soon as Gordon's words came out, all the beasts below who were pressed by the black pressure of more than 400 were stunned, and it was possible to buy another black dragon with one silver coin, there was such a good thing?
For a while, there was no more noise, and many remarks were mixed in.
However, the auction is also going on, and as the auction begins, many beasts who are watching from the outside also begin to approach the square, intending to join in the fun, even if the lonely beasts can't help but walk to the edge of the square to observe the auction house.
At this time, in the Cuifeng Valley, ninety percent of the beasts had already arrived.
And the price of the news has been shouted to a high price worth "fifteen gold coins" by a Zedi bear man with a giant sword, holding a dog's head gold.
"One hundred gold coins!"
However, at this time, a voice came from the ancient castle in the valley square, which directly doubled the value of the news.
The wooden gate was wide open, and two werewolves with very different styles walked out with the werewolf guards behind them, none other than the owner of the Emerald Peak Valley, the werewolf king Kurnok and his younger brother, the blood wolf Kuris.
Its appearance has cast a haze over the hearts of many beasts with hope, and Lord Kurnok has made a move, and nothing has happened to them.
It seems that this is the end of the auction.
For a time, some people were disheartened, and some people gritted their teeth......
But in the end, no one dared to shout.
"100 Gold Coins ...... for the First Time"
Gordon was about to shout a second time, but was interrupted by the blood-skinned werewolf, who cracked open his mouth.
"Little mouse, speed up! In the Cuifeng Valley, no one dares to disobey my brother's will, and no one dares to bid for this news again!"
"Tell me! If the news is true, I'll give you a sum of money!"
The two-headed black dragon is undoubtedly more effective.
What Curris didn't expect was that the nezumi ignored him, which he didn't expect.
Just when it wanted to get angry and ask the rat-man why he hadn't announced the ownership of the news yet.
I saw the nezumi in front of him show a smile that it didn't expect, that smile was not the greed of the gold coins in hand.
rather, to it...... Their greed?
Curris was a little confused, but in the next second, he found that the whole world had shifted, and the familiar castle and the square covered with pine needles had all disappeared.
And the beasts in the valley are a Bula.
"Here?"
The dragon werewolf Kurnok was also stunned, one second it was still in the square outside the fort, and the next second, it came to a place where the dome was nothing.
There's nothing here, not even rocks.
All the beasts panicked, screaming and boisterous as they observed this dimly lit space.
"Who did that?"
Curris growled, it hadn't figured out the situation yet.
"Stand up!"
"I'm going to shred you!"
At this moment, the noise suddenly became much quieter, and many beasts stopped their noise, and their speech was like a silent pantomime, silent, only their mouths moving.
Some beasts froze in place, motionless, as if their breath had stopped.
Until Curris followed their gaze and looked ahead.
On the originally humble platform, the rat man was nowhere to be seen.
Instead, a wave of heat hits and the surrounding light slowly dims.
Is the heat wave bleak?
Curris looked up at the sky almost with his brother.
I saw a giant dragon with an extremely graceful posture and smoothness, flapping its wings slowly and evenly, although it did not make a sound, but the momentum emanating from the real dragon's body was enough to silence the beast people collectively.
And as the dragon completely obscured the light source of the space.
Darkness has fallen.
Another sun burned on the dragon's chest.
The sound of thunder also buzzed in the ears of all beasts.
"I heard, you're looking for a black dragon?
The black dragon grinned, looked down at the dense beasts, and asked a little innocently.
Kurnock just wanted to shake his head quickly, and said no.
A raging, scorching pillar of fire erupted from above the sun, lighting up the dead space.
