Wrought iron tapped on the wooden table with his thick, short, calloused fingers, humming an unknown tune in his nose, sitting on a chair and watching the guests coming and going. He had a long
The beard was fiery red, with several copper rings hanging on it, which jingled as it shook.
The dwarf had a money bag filled with bright gold. When he grabbed it with his hand, it was heavy. His beard was soaked in ale and his lips were stained with foam. He squinted his eyes and was satisfied.
"another one!"
"One more!" The players around him were shouting. The dwarf ignored them and sprayed a mouthful of wine mist. He drunkenly waved his fist at these bastards. That was a whole bag of gold, given to him by the mage.
Bonus - just because the great dwarf defeated the terrible evil dragon Tenglas, completely and mercilessly knocking him down! This little thought made the wrought iron beautiful, and it was soaked in alcohol and fermented. It actually floated.
stand up.
With a large sum of money, the dwarf felt extremely happy, as if he had returned to the days when he discovered the treasure and could live a comfortable life again.
Behind him, the tall orc grabbed a rag and wiped the giant ax again and again. The big man concentrated on this work, but the waiter walked by with a wooden plate full of food.
Sometimes, he would still use his nose to smell it.
Shuixun sat obediently opposite, calmly preparing for her dinner... Although there was only a plate of salted fish, a piece of dry bread, and a plate of light potato soup on the plate in front of her, the little girl still wrapped a small dish around herself
She wears a napkin and stands upright. She cuts food carefully with a knife and fork and serves soup with a spoon - she is very quiet and has a good enough upbringing.
Sophia was the same in the past, but that was years ago. Now the little girl has learned a lot of good habits from a group of bad guys who shine with gold coins. Now, the little girl will push aside the fish she doesn't like and swallow it whole.
Put a whole piece of bread into your little mouth, or just pick up the plate and drink the soup, and then throw the spoon into the fruit plate. It will make a crunching sound...
She even learned to talk while eating, chirping like a noisy little sparrow, while telling her sister Dixue what happened throughout the day.
The tranquil Xue listened quietly, occasionally showing a knowing smile. However, she was a little worried. While wiping the corners of the little sparrow's mouth with a tissue, she wondered if her uncle and aunt would be angry when they saw the little girl like this.
Fainted……
"Fen is really a bad guy, I don't know how to say he's good..." She looked at the little girl and smiled awkwardly.
The elf girl was equally quiet. She sat next to the female mage. Her slender fingers gently touched the string of the long bow, as if she was in a trance. But occasionally, Ke'er would quietly put her eyes on her sister and look at her carefully for a while.
.
"Does it look good?" Yun Na carefully flipped through a thick book in her hand and asked without raising her head.
Ke'er's face suddenly turned red, "Well, sister... she has always been... pretty..." she said in a low voice.
The female mage closed the book with a snap. She raised her head and glanced at her: "How does it compare with him?"
"Ah——!" the female ranger shouted, unable to say anything else.
Yun Na covered her mouth and smiled.
At the other end of this long wooden table——
Vladis was so happy. The female dragon poured out a bag of jewels and gold, piled them all on the table, and then ordered them over and over again; she polished every piece of gold until it was bright and shiny.
I bit each gem again and again, my eyes narrowed with joy, and I snorted happily from my nose.
This is gold and gems! It belongs only to her - it has nothing to do with anyone else! This is her first treasure, so it must be kept well, and no one can get involved with it!
Vladis was so happy that she fainted. Normally, her damn, weird red dragon father would never allow her to be independent, saying that she was not yet an adult. Oh my God! Vladis was over two hundred years old, even though
According to the dragon clan's algorithm, she is considered a healthy and beautiful adult dragon... But unfortunately, due to the powerful interference of Tidenglas, she does not have any private property, let alone a spouse...
Thinking of this, the beautiful little female dragon wiped away her tears pitifully, but soon started laughing at the treasures on the table.
But looking at her rosy face, it didn't look like she had just been sold for a good price.
The goblin sitting not far away was frightened by the way the female dragon alternately shed tears and giggled, and his face immediately turned a little green (although it was originally green). He dropped the half-eaten salted fish in his hand and pulled it
He tugged at the hem of the black-robed mage next to him and stammered: "Captain...Captain, are you...are you sure it was a wise decision for us to spend so much money to buy such a crazy woman? What's more, that foolish man
The dwarf got such a big sum of money..." As he said that, the frog prince looked at the money bag in the dwarf's hand jealously.
"Damn it." Xiao Fen immediately cursed secretly. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence word by word: "I suggest you don't use my robe as a rag. This is a very serious matter.
I think you’ll realize that soon!”
As he spoke, the mage suddenly opened his mouth and made a strange note.
"Ah——!" the goblin screamed and let go of his hand, as if he was holding a red-hot iron.
Vladis's expression suddenly froze. Who is she? She is a noble and elegant red dragon lady. And she is confident enough that she can disdain the evil of the same kind and has enough capital to
Laughing at the silver dragon's weakness - she is unique. She is the only red dragon that has no shortcomings and exists perfectly - the most important thing is that she is still young and beautiful!
So, the little female dragon immediately decided to teach the offender a lesson that she would never forget. She raised her noble head and first showed her teeth to the frog prince - they were white, but neat and beautiful.
But Vladis immediately noticed that the people around the table seemed to be staring at her with strange eyes; she was stunned for a moment, and then thought of her previous behavior, and her face suddenly turned red.
I have to say that the dragon skin is indeed thick and tough, because Miss Vladis' face only blushed for a moment. It was almost unnoticeable, and she immediately returned to normal. She coughed lightly and spoke in a very elegant way.
The tone explained: "Don't think wrong, I am different from those greedy mortal dragons; in fact, I don't like these vulgar mortal things at all..."
"It doesn't matter, I like it!" When the goblin heard this, he immediately leaned over in awe.
"Let me go——!" Miss Red Dragon instantly screamed with high decibels, and swept the goblin away with one claw. She calmed down again, and her face turned red again: "This... I just don't like others to move.
My stuff."
People at the table looked at each other.
"Okay. Miss Fratis, please rest assured. These properties undoubtedly belong to you, are sacred and inviolable, and no one can take them away - and as for some people, they should indeed receive a lesson."
At this time, Xiao Fen came to his senses from his long state of thinking. He glanced at the bruised goblin and gave him a warning look.
The mage's words made Miss Red Dragon extremely satisfied, and she almost narrowed her eyes with joy.
"But apart from this, I have something else to say..." Then Xiao Fen raised his head again and glanced at everyone around him, scanning them one by one.
The atmosphere at the table suddenly fell silent, because everyone had more or less received some news from Yun Na: Xiao Fen will make a plan of action after the Shining Gold Coin at today's dinner. So obviously, now is the time
——The black-robed mage was quiet for a short while, seeming to be contemplating words. But soon, he raised his head for the second time.
"Everyone understands that we are here. This is the beginning of the Year of Shadows. A year ago to now, many events have happened in our field of vision, and contributed to the irreversible result-the war in the South is raging.
, swept half of Oras in an instant. And in the near future, the most massive battle is about to begin. There is no doubt that this will be a tragic war, and perhaps none of us will be spared..." The mage said
He lowered his voice: "Everyone, no one can escape!"
"Everyone understands that we are sitting here as if the world is still peaceful and the candlelight is still warm... But this is just the last illusion. Soon, a storm sweeps over, and we have to face the choice between survival and death.
!”
The surroundings became quiet——
Xiao Fen looked at all his team members, and everyone responded to his calm and firm gaze - of course, Miss Red Dragon stared at her treasure.
"We have always tried our best to avoid getting involved in the confrontation between forces..."
"All along, we have been careful to avoid the arrival of death..."
"We've always tried to stay on our own..."
"But -" the mage raised his chin and said in a slightly proud tone: "This does not mean that we are timid, cowardly, or afraid of death!"
"We are shining gold coins. Don't forget the oath of Qishan. This is our agreement!" He looked at everyone and said word by word: "When fate requires us to make a choice, then we will not escape.
, this is our belief - the strongest team!"
"But no matter what... at this moment, I have to say. It's an honor to be your captain all the time, and to draw a path to the future for the shining gold coins in the last moment of tranquility before this troubled world; from now on, we may not be able to
It is impossible to foresee where this road will eventually lead. It is impossible to foresee whether it will be a smooth road or a road of thorns. It is impossible to foresee whether it will carry danger or safety, but..."
The mage stretched out a finger and drew it from one point on the table to another.
"However... once we make a choice, then this will be the road of faith that shines with gold coins! From now on, we will no longer be confused - maybe the road ahead is full of terrible difficulties, maybe everything before us
All efforts will be in vain, but that is not important. What is important is that even if there is only one person left, he should stick to this belief until the end!"
The mage's voice lowered, but became firmer.
"On the road ahead, even if there is a sharp knife, I will never give up!"
He paused and saw his team members answering him with their eyes. He smiled softly, interlaced his fingers, and then raised his chin: "I'm very happy that you gave me a satisfactory answer!
Then I will give you a satisfactory answer, and then I will talk about my plans after tonight."
"First," Xiao Fen glanced at Fratis and nodded to her: "Welcome our new team member and future comrade--this is Miss Fratis, she comes from a noble and great family;
And next, she will fight side by side with the equally noble female paladin in our team!"
"Ah!" The little girl was startled, and then looked at Miss Red Dragon in surprise.
Of course, the latter also looked at the little female knight in surprise.
Xiao Fen didn't give them much time to get acquainted with each other. He paused, and then continued: "Then it's our actions; I suggest. From tomorrow on, Shining Gold Coin will move in three directions. After half a month, we will
Meet in the fields of clover..."
The mage's words immediately stunned most of the people at the table.
"Brother Palin, how could this happen?" the little girl asked with some dissatisfaction. It had only been two days since we all gathered together. She didn't want to be separated at all.
"One route is Dragon City. The goal is to convince the top leaders of the Dark Leaf to form an alliance with the Southern Alliance and the Bloody Slayer at least in a short period of time." Xiao Fen rarely paid attention to the little girl's question and analyzed directly:
"It's more troublesome here. I'll handle it myself. Goblin and Waterousia will be with me. In addition, I also plan to take some time to meet that legendary businesswoman."
"The second route is Terrans. This is the range of the Bloody Slayer. I have discussed it with Xue and she will be in charge." Xiao Fen looked at the others and then nodded: "Little girl, Wrought Iron and Barbarian
Shi, your mission is to escort Xue to complete the mission safely."
"The third route is the Field of Clover. I need to understand every detail of the frontline war. It's not enough to just rely on the information on the forum, so Yun Na and Ke'er will go there first and collect as much useful information as possible -
—The other thing is to get in touch with the player resistance organizations on the front lines, I know there is such an organization."
He glanced at Yun Na, who smiled and nodded to him.
"These three routes, Frog, Yun Na and Xue, I and I have repeatedly checked. It seems to be a little urgent, but it is the best way at present." The mage added: "Please understand that there is no time left for us.
, there are not many left.”
"Oh..." The little girl answered him with an extremely frustrated sigh.
As for Shui Xun, she just smiled and had neither approval nor objection. Her position in this group was very special, and it was for this reason that Xiao Fen asked her to go to Dragon City with him.
And Miss Red Dragon seemed to have turned her attention back to her treasure again... The time was spent in dullness, and everyone was silently checking their equipment. After all, what they will face after tomorrow will probably be completely...
Unknown fate. Finally, when they were dismissed from the dining table, Ke'er, who had not spoken much, pulled Xiao Fen and said, "What?" The mage was stunned, as if he had an impression that this female ranger in his team rarely behaved like this.
"Sister Meng asked me to ask you, what did you say to the president of the Southern Alliance this afternoon?" The elf girl's face turned a little red as soon as she met the mage's gaze alone.
"Meng? Is it the envoy from Westland? Have you met her?" Xiao Fen asked doubtfully.
"Well, Sister Meng also lives in this hotel..." Ke'er replied softly.
"That's what you want to ask?"
Xiao Fen was just curious to confirm, but Ke'er suddenly changed her words as if she was startled: "Yes...no."
"..." Xiao Fen was a little speechless. He looked at the female ranger in front of him. If this assumption wasn't so ridiculous, he almost thought that his team members had been replaced by someone.
"I want to say..."
Ke'er looked at him deeply and suddenly bit her lower lip: "Nothing, good night!"
After saying that, he left the mage alone and ran up the stairs by kicking, kicking, kicking.
"What are you doing!" Xiao Fen complained in confusion. Updated, ah ah! Your Majesty, the Red Majesty, all respect, all nobility, all elegance! Praise you! The next volume of Green Stone will come out.
, and then I hope it is the chairman, tat, everyone please pray with me.
