Chapter 505 Hill and Golden Dragon, Opposite Views on Money
The auction in Waterdeep City, the final highlight is a magic ship.
Hill looked at it a little excitedly.
This ship did not appear in the auction hall, only a replica model was shown to everyone.
Because the construction materials were said to be the same, Hill couldn't help but take a closer look.
He smiled with satisfaction, it turned out that he used star meteorite, and he still had this stuff.
He tried to make it when he got back. Hill remembered that the basic magic circle of the magic ship was in the book he copied in the Silvermoon City library.
Villamarandez asked curiously: "Why are you interested in this kind of thing? You should be able to fly by yourself, right? The cost of this spell is nothing to you."
"I still like to travel comfortably." Hill said simply, "Besides, why waste your energy on things that can be solved with money?"
"Haha." The Silver Moon Dragon Queen sneered in a self-taught way, "A matter that can be solved easily with just a few hands is actually a waste of gold coins!"
One person and one dragon looked at each other and determined that the other person's consumption concept was completely opposite to his own, and they would never be friends.
Villamarandez was a little worried about her silly son.
If Terry really turned into a golden dragon that could spend money, even the five-color dragon queen would probably come to watch the fun.
She decided to introduce Tailip to the dragon tradition again.
When Waterdeep put it up for auction, it did not say that it was a Moffan ship that could go to other planets, but instead said that the ship could easily go to other continents.
"Why do they treat other worlds as secrets?" Hill was a little curious. "People in Toril should have known about other worlds for a long time, right?"
"But what they know is that the existences that can transcend the world are gods." Verama Landas replied with a smile.
She did not continue. Hill knew that this meant that the Silver Moon Dragon Queen also agreed to keep the magic ship secret, but she did not want to tell Hill why.
So this means that the lords know the reason. At this time, Hill and Terry's friendship cannot be kept secret by Verama Landas.
Hill's territory is not far from the Silver Moon Dragon Queen's northern land, and they also have competition.
Hill decided to read more books after going back, just in time to buy another batch in Waterdeep City. The number of exploration books here should be the largest in the entire Faerûn continent.
The magic ship was finally bought by a nobleman on the fourth floor for 300,000 gold.
"Why didn't you buy it?" Silver Moon Dragon Queen asked with great interest, "I remember many people said that you are richer than Taikoo Long."
Hill couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his eye: "Are you afraid that I won't fight the dragon? Is this what the people in Woking said?"
"That's right~" Veramalandes smiled proudly, "The words spread by the goddess of wealth are just to cover up the shame of the failed bid with you.
Saying that she is not the richest person in Toril, the wealth accumulated by the Temple of Wealth over the years may not be as good as the wealth of an ancient dragon.
And you, this visitor from another world, are the richest person in your world, probably richer than the Taikoo Dragon."
"There are no such rumors here in Silver Moon." Lin En said with a serious face, "The bard will immediately pass on the news about Hill to me if he knows about it."
"Is Woking still connected with the Five-Colored Dragon?" Hill reacted. The goddess of wealth had spread the word from the Five-Colored Dragon.
"Now she has thrown the Kingdom of God into the star realm, and she probably doesn't even know where she is." Vera Marandeis said with a smile, "I specially spread this sentence before leaving.
Dear Hill, she really hates you! But all the five-color dragons think she is seeking malicious revenge, and no one believes that you still have so many gold coins.
Of course, if you are not so strong, dragons will still come to your door. What if you still have tens of thousands of gold coins?
Embry's complete defeat has made you feel much calmer.
It is a pity that many dragons did not know about your existence before you spent money to buy Swamp of the Dead.
Otherwise, if we find a partner with Long, we will have to rob you."
Hill carefully recalled the words of the Silver Moon Dragon Queen. She was talking about giant dragons, not five-color dragons.
It seems that hundreds of thousands of gold coins are enough for a metal dragon to lose its mind.
He smiled and shook his head. At least now, even if the dragons knew that there were still so many on Hill, they would not be able to gather so many shameless ancient dragons.
There was a knock on the door, and the steward of the auction house finally came to deliver the goods and collect the money.
Hill glanced at the steward with a serious expression. As a chosen one of the goddess of magic, Kelben probably recognized Verama Landis.
The steward, who had obviously been informed, silently accepted the money and left quickly without daring to say a single unnecessary word.
Silver Moon Dragon Queen was not interested in continuing the chat. She stood up with a sullen face: "Let's go, I will go back to your place directly, take the dragon egg and send it to the Platinum Dragon King.
He has already spread the word, and anyone who doesn't want to be raised can be sent to him.
Although the giant dragon is relatively friendly to its cubs, if they are not of his own blood, he is actually not interested in raising them. Most of them will probably be sent to him."
Hill took Linn to the door of the auction house.
The petite Dragon Queen waved her hand and disappeared into the night.
"Let's go back too!" Hill looked around and said calmly to Linn, "The biggest advantage of Waterdeep City is that you can take action at any time."
A row of thin ice swords appeared in his hand, and he led Lin En into the carriage without looking back.
When they were about to turn onto the street where the hotel was, Hill extended his hand out of the car window, and the rapier flew out quickly, nailing the shadow on the ground.
After the carriage turned the corner, only a wailing sound was left.
"The thieves' guild in Waterdeep City shouldn't dare to offend the boss who loves travelers." Lin En said softly, "It won't affect your rest."
"These are spies, not just thieves." Hill replied slowly, "They are here to keep an eye on me. It seems that Waterdeep is also on guard against me."
"I know a little bit about that prophecy." Lin En glanced out the window, "The twins who lost their father's protection, one inherited the Silver Fire, saved Waterdeep from the brink, and became his new master. The other inherited the Black Fire
Stick and become the lord of the wasteland.
You are so close to Waterdeep and you are an outsider who is not included in the prophecy. Maybe he is worried about any changes."
"Does he just believe that?" Hill didn't understand. Kelben was a mage! Shouldn't a prophecy be something that a mage has to struggle to break?
"When he heard that his child would become the master of the High Wasteland, Kelben probably went completely crazy. Otherwise, he would not have withdrawn from the Silver Moon Alliance in that way.
Many people in Waterdeep City were dissatisfied with his choice, especially last year, when so many dragons appeared in the center of the city, but this time they lost the protection of Alustriel, who had the best relationship with the dragons.
Just because Waterdeep was lucky this time, doesn't mean it will be the same next time.
Kelben actually has no choice but to move forward, otherwise he won't even be able to keep his rights in Waterdeep City.
Moreover, not everyone knows this prophecy, he told me when I was chatting with Miriel."
Chatting is just passing gossip to each other! It’s just that your news is more authentic.
Miriel still likes gossip so much!
But it's no wonder that he communicated with Lin En, who was quite tight-lipped. If he wasn't worried about Hill, no words would have come out.
Hill nodded and got off the carriage: "I understand, thank you Lynn.
Let’s have a good rest first! Let’s take a good tour of Waterdeep starting tomorrow. After this time, I probably won’t come here for a long time.”
He could actually go home directly. After all, at the speed of the carriage, there would be no problem in going back and forth in the same day.
However, Hill knew that if Kelben really died, Waterdeep City would definitely be in chaos for a while, and he had no interest in helping others manage public security.
Moreover, Hill decided that when Corellon really brought the undead from Trasil to the world as he thought, he would have to inform Linn.
It's not like Miriel has never observed the undead, he should know how to deal with them.
Moreover, as a long-time veteran of the Sheriff, Hill did not think that Lynn could not accept the call of the family.
As soon as they stepped onto the tower, they heard a warm greeting: "Good evening, gentlemen, you have had a hard time on the road. The bath water has been put away, please enjoy it."
Both of them nodded to Shana who was standing at the door of the room downstairs: "You can rest now, Shana. We will call you if we have nothing to do tonight."
Shana curtsied, watched the two of them go upstairs, and then stood up and closed the door.
When Hill walked into the room, he saw several books and atlases that Shana had placed in the living room.
Next to it is a basket of plump honey bread and a cup of steaming fruit tea.
They probably have estimated the time when the auction will end.
Hill walked into the bathroom, looked at the tub of hot water sprinkled with sleep aid essential oil, and smiled softly.
This shop owner is interesting and should already know Hill's identity.
This sleep aid essential oil is a specialty of Silvery Moon City and is called 'Guardian'.
Is this telling Hill that in a hotel, under his protection, he can sleep peacefully?
Hill returned to the bedroom, changed into a robe, picked up the map of Faerûn and read it.
There are many ruins in the Supreme Forest and the Supreme Wasteland, and there are many cities in the wasteland.
The original strength of the elves can be seen from these cities.
However, now, except for the outermost city on a cliff delineated by Kelben, other places are still in ruins.
Except for demons, demons, and some evil races, only giant dragons can live in it.
Hill gently tapped his finger on the city outside the High Forest that was larger than Myth Drannor. It was the Elven King's City that once accommodated hundreds of thousands of elves.
Now there are only countless demon races inside after the demonic tide receded.
Corellon probably became interested in the undead after coming into contact with them.
