Woody will not pin his hopes of victory on the missing metal dragon.
And generally speaking, metal dragons do not want to interfere with human affairs.
Rather than taking action, they prefer to be outside observers.
This is also the reason why many metal dragons like to set up dragon nests around cities, or build nests directly in cities.
Moreover, Woody, who had dealt with metal dragons before, knew how outrageous the brain circuits of these guys were.
He is always self-centered, arrogant and arrogant. He sees any human being talking with an attitude of mercy and grace. In a way, it is even more annoying than the chromatic dragon.
Even when listening to the stories of humans, metal dragons will regard this behavior as a great gift to humans.
Moreover, anyone who tries to use moral kidnapping, such as words such as "You can watch the destruction of the city and remain indifferent" to try to arouse the Metal Dragon's sense of responsibility, will be considered by the Metal Dragon to be insulting him, and there is a high possibility of causing
Metal Dragon's violent reaction.
If possible, Woody wouldn't even want to have anything to do with these guys, they are like oversized naughty kids.
For example, a red dragon may view the human kingdom as a fixed natural hunting ground, while a golden dragon may regard the kingdom as some kind of large toy that can be arranged according to its wishes.
There is no difference, except that the metal dragon's desire to dominate lower creatures far exceeds the instinct of robbery or destruction in its bones.
It is almost impossible to have an equal dialogue.
Unless your strength can impress the giant dragon, otherwise, no matter how much you say, you will only get an indifferent response from the owner of those vertical pupils.
Of course, this is not to say that the metal dragon will not execute justice, but it will not execute justice because of someone's request.
They prefer to act according to their own ideas rather than being dictated by lower creatures. Even if they are tipped off, it will be humiliated in their hearts.
If you want to ask the metal dragon to take action, you must understand the character of the metal dragon.
Generally speaking, the first step is to find the key link between the request and the metallic dragon's desire.
Then on this basis, explain how the metal dragon will benefit and be rewarded after completing this goal.
Only in this way can it be possible to impress these self-esteemed dragon races.
"Anyway, just pretend it never happened."
Woody suppressed his slightly wandering thoughts, quickly passed this episode through his mind, and began to implement his plan intensively.
First, let's go to Trade Avenue again. He needs some monster materials, and he doesn't know if the market is closed yet.
…
The night is getting darker.
Woody, who had just come out of the dock area, was walking alone in the alleys of Palermo's trading district. Extremely lively noises could be heard from both ends of the alleys.
The Harvest Festival is coming soon, and many residents have already begun to go out in the evening to buy items needed for the festival.
The steel sword and other weapons on his body have been stored in the dimensional ring by him, and he only wears a black and worn-out hunting suit that he has not had time to clean up.
Disarm.
This is the basic etiquette for entering an arcane shop.
Especially when your strength is low, you must abide by it. Otherwise, when you enter the store, you will not know whether the cold face of the store owner who is about to make a big deal or the whizzing magic missiles coming towards you.
What Woody is going to on this trip is the "Traveler's Store," the largest of the three secret stores.
It is also a secret shop that Woody is very familiar with. It has its stronghold in many cities in the North.
It is said that behind this store is the largest mage association in Asenland, the mage organization "Thousand Towers Association" with at least five legendary mage.
Unfortunately, not long after the Year of Darkness arrived, the Thousand Towers Association fell into a period of chaos with the disappearance of several legendary mages and tower owners.
Many people thought they were dead, but Woody, who had experienced it before, knew it.
Those legendary mages did not die, but after the crisis came, taking advantage of the arrival of the ancient evil "Rotten Mother Tree" and before its corrupt aura spread to the entire crystal wall of the plane, they decisively left this area.
A place of strife.
If not, in the end there was still one legendary mage left in the Thousand Towers who chose to resist natural disasters, then it is estimated that this largest mage organization spanning two continents would disappear in an instant.
And about why there are so many arcane shops in Palermo.
This is because most of the nobles in Palermo prefer to send the children of their families to the mage academy or the mage tower of a distinguished mage to practice magic.
Every year, these stores will occasionally make guest appearances in the Admissions Office's work.
The location of the arcane shop is in the corner of the trade area.
After all, most spellcasters don't like the excitement and try to avoid communication with ordinary people, so they will set up the store in a very remote and quiet location.
When Woody was adventuring in the Northland, he even saw many spellcasters locating their shops in long-abandoned sewers.
Every time Woody goes there, he has to walk around the maze-like sewers for a while before he can find the entrance or exit.
At that time, many new players who were unfamiliar with the road conditions were stunned, and it directly played a role in dissuading them from quitting.
Woody was taken in by the local aborigines on the mission. After the mission was over and he walked five or six times, he reluctantly memorized the map of the sewer.
It really made him miss it a bit...
When Woody's thoughts continued to wander, he was already standing in front of the wooden door of a single-family stone house that looked very ordinary.
Before he could push it open, a naive and anthropomorphic square face appeared on the wooden door.
Woody was not frightened by it, but consciously took out a gold coin and put it in front of the mouth of this human face.
Only an afterimage was seen, and the gold coins in his hand had disappeared.
And then that innocent square face shouted happily.
"Little Tver, we have a guest!"
Woody is not surprised that the door can talk, because this is the basic infrastructure of all traveler stores.
The "Secret Door of Activation" created by "Activation Item" and "Magic Constancy"
These two spells can not only give an inanimate object the ability to continue to move and possess some characteristics of life, but can also act as a guard.
Therefore, despite the fact that it can only talk now, if it really wants to fight, most of the professionals in this city are no match for it one on one.
And the one gold coin just now is the ticket to enter the secret shop.
After all, a mage's time is very precious. If you delay for too long, you may even be kicked out by the spellcaster and put on the list of unwelcome customers.
After activating the secret door, it opens a hole large enough to swallow a person's mouth.
