"I'm afraid this transformation will take some time. Why don't you go around and see if there are any good magic equipment here." Gavin suggested.
Zalanda shook his head and said: "I think it's better to forget it. Now that the original owner is gone, who knows if there are any unclosed traps nearby or if there are other monsters, so don't make things more complicated."
Thinking about it, Gavin nodded and said: "Okay, I only talked about my experience before, and I haven't heard your side yet. Why don't we talk about it while we have time!"
"Okay!" Zalanda nodded, casually sat on the pile of gold coins next to Gavin, and started chatting with him.
Talking about Zalanda's experience.
In fact, while the two were chatting, they came to the situation in Tessel.
For example, the dilemma Zalanda is facing now and how to overcome it.
For example, the real problem with Tessel is how to treat the symptoms while also addressing the root cause.
Zalanda deeply agrees with Gavin's statement that those warlords and nobles are the source of Tethyr's disaster.
But then he couldn't help but sigh and said: "How difficult is it to tear through this class cage? Land, food, minerals, caravans, roads, everything is in their hands, and people are just in their hands.
As a tool to create wealth, what can you use to resist them? If they hadn't been in awe of Ms. Strategy, they would have united and wiped out Darauma."
Gavin laughed and said: "Sister, I really think highly of them. If they could unite as one, would they still be fighting for so many years? You don't need to worry about them, concentrate on your own construction, cultivate more fields, build more walls, and do your best.
Develop the economy.
When your city is prosperous and healthy, do you think those Tethyrians will stay where they are and continue to be exploited?
Or run to your territory?
When all the people in their territory are gone, no matter how powerful their financial resources are, what's the use?"
"There is no need to wait until then, they will be unable to bear it and declare war on me!" Zalanda couldn't help but said.
Gavin showed a sly smile and said: "What I want is that they can't hold it in any longer. Then Ms. Strategy can stand on your side openly."
Zalanda couldn't help but sigh: "You are the best voter for Ms. Strategy. Why didn't she grant you full voter status before?"
Gavin laughed and said: "Madam must have her own arrangements in this matter. It's done. It's time for us to leave."
"So fast?" Zalanda was a little surprised and looked around. The entire dragon's nest was already empty. Not to mention the gold coins, not even half of the broken equipment and bones could be seen. They were all transferred away by Gavin using negative energy.
"It's still early, it's already midnight." Gavin said with a smile, "But I probably won't have time to sleep tonight. After I get back, I have to do a big inventory!"
Zalanda couldn't help laughing and said: "This should be said the other way around! If you don't take stock of all these harvests, can you sleep well?"
"It goes without saying that I won't be able to sleep." Gavin laughed.
When Gavin and the others rushed back to Wezeme Manor overnight, the manor was brightly lit and surrounded by humans and non-humans, all of whom looked very excited.
Whoever it is, would be excited to see gold coins falling from the sky, but they would also be unable to sleep.
The courtyard is already full of large wooden boxes made by the Pik Druids who worked overtime. The shadows are sorting and packing the gold coins according to their place of origin.
There are already more than 20 boxes packed full of them, probably all 10,000 standard boxes.
Packing the rest into twenty boxes won't be a problem.
"Lord, you are back." Daphne came up to her immediately with a smile on her face.
"Did you arrange this?" Gavin asked, pointing to the scene where gold coins were being distributed.
Daphne was suddenly startled and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, Lord Lord, I am the one who makes decisions. I will order them to stop now."
"No!" Gavin shook his head and said, "On the contrary, you did a good job."
Daphne breathed a sigh of relief, even though she no longer needed it, "Thank you Lord for the compliment. It is my greatest honor to be recognized by you."
"Tell me what you gained this time." Gavin waved his hand, indicating that she didn't need to be so polite.
"As ordered." Daphne was obviously well prepared and replied: "Eighteen long troop transport ships have been captured by us. Two of them were seriously damaged, three were moderately damaged, and the others are all intact.
A total of 1,720 mercenaries were captured, including more than 300 warriors, and the rest were all strong and strong.
We will temporarily imprison them over there in the new village, under the supervision of Lord Broken Thorn and others."
"There are only more than 300 warriors?" Gavin couldn't help but raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why so few?"
Daphne replied: "They are not a regular mercenary group, but temporary mercenaries recruited in taverns and docks. Judging from the previous situation, these mercenaries are cannon fodder used to attract Lord Broken Thorn and their attack. Then
The red dragon that was destroyed by the lord was the main force of this attack, so as long as they have enough numbers, their strength does not matter."
"It makes sense." Gavin nodded in agreement and said, "Continue."
"These magic items were counted when counting the gold coins. The quantity is relatively small. The main wealth of this red dragon is concentrated on the gold coins." Daphne clapped her hands, and the drow shadows immediately lined up.
The team came up, each holding a magic item in their hands.
There are six magic items in total, including a crown, a scepter, a crystal ball, a flute, a belt and a visor.
When he saw the crown and crystal ball, Gavin's eyes suddenly lit up. He immediately pointed at the crystal ball and said, "Bring it over and show me first."
The drow shadow holding the crystal ball immediately walked up.
Gavin took the crystal ball and took a look at it. There was surprise on his face and he said: "It is indeed it."
"What kind of equipment is this? Do you need it very much?" Zalanda asked curiously.
"It is really needed. I have been looking for this magic item for a long time, but it has never been found." Gavin explained, "This is a device that can control the weather. It is called the Huifeng Sphere. After the synchronization is completed, it can move the air within ten meters.
kilometers, keeping it mild and pleasant, whether it's hot summer or cold winter.
"The effect sounds really good, but it is just an auxiliary tool. Apart from making the natural environment more comfortable, it doesn't have much effect, right?" Zalanda looked puzzled. This is not a necessity of life.
"For humans, it does just make the living environment more comfortable, but for kobolds, it goes far beyond that." Gavin pointed to the west and said, "They are temperature-changing creatures and are easily affected by changes in external temperature.
The impact is that they are typically resistant to heat but not cold. Without the help of the Hui Feng Ball, when winter comes, they will have no choice but to burrow deep into the ground to fight the winter."
"So that's it." Zalanda understood at this moment, "The value of the same item to different races is indeed very different. For humans, it is a magic equipment of little use, but for the kobolds, it turns out to be a priceless treasure.
, after I return to Tethyr, I will help you keep an eye on it to see if there is any similar magic equipment."
"Then I'll thank you in advance, eldest sister." Gavin naturally didn't mind the large number of Hui Feng Balls.
"What about this crown? What's its origin?" Zalanda continued to ask.
The crown is elegant and beautiful. It is white gold in color and has five spires. Each spire is in the shape of a small and exquisite metal dragon. They are brass dragon, red copper dragon, bronze dragon, gold dragon and silver dragon.
"This magical equipment is called the Crown of the North Wind. According to legend, Bahamut, the Lord of the North Wind and the Good Dragon God, specially crafted it for them in order to inspire the dragon-born knights. This magic equipment
The equipment not only gives the user +2 charm attribute, but also gives him the aura of courage.
But the most important ability is to give those dragonborn who have energy breath weapons a second breath weapon, just like the second breath weapon of the metal dragon." When Gavin stated the attributes of the Crown of the North Wind like a pearl,
His eyes couldn't help but fall on Shanoba, who had transformed into a human form.
She was also looking at him without blinking, with unconcealable desire in her eyes.
This piece of equipment was simply tailor-made for her.
When she transformed into a dragon, she only activated the strong acid dragon breath of the copper dragon. If she is equipped with this magical equipment, she can use slow breath.
Gavin didn't waste any time and handed the Crown of the North Wind directly to her.
"Thank you Lord..." Shanobah thanked him in surprise. Looking at Gavin's serious expression, she swallowed the last words of the title back in her stomach.
Gavin's voice sounded directly in Shanoba's mind: "No need to thank me, you deserve this. Remember, the relationship between the two of us is absolutely confidential, including Ms. Zalanda."
"Understood." Shanobah responded calmly in her heart. She naturally knew the deeper meaning of the other party.
His eyes fell on Zalanda involuntarily. It seemed that this lady had an unusual relationship with her master.
Without any familiar magic items, Gavin began to identify them step by step.
That scepter is called the Xunlong Scepter.
Its function is very simple, that is, just like its name - looking for dragons, it helps the user sense the direction of the dragon and guides the user there. It can be used three times a day, and each time it can only target one type of dragon or a certain dragon.
After hearing the properties of the scepter, Zalanda couldn't help but joke: "This scepter matches your title of dragon slayer very well. You can use it to find traces of dragons and strangle them!"
"If I really do this, within a few days, those giant dragons will attack me in groups." Gavin was not so optimistic.
Dragons are highly intelligent creatures. Although the connection between them is not close, it does not mean that there is no connection at all.
When someone specializes in slaying dragons in large numbers, there is no guarantee that they will not unite to fight.
Shanoba whispered on the side: "It doesn't have to be against giant dragons, you can also use it to deal with dragon blood or dragon vein creatures, such as bipedal flying dragons. I heard that in the south of the Thunder Peak Mountains, there is a creature called Pterodactyl Sharp Horns.
There are a large number of flying dragons in the place. If we can find them, the lord can form a flying dragon air force."
The speaker has no intention, the listener has intention.
Gavin couldn't help but nodded repeatedly: "This is a good idea, worth trying it when you have time."
"If there is a need, I will do my best to help." Shanoba hurriedly promised that although she can transform into a flying dragon, she is not a flying dragon in the true sense and has no deep understanding of those wild flying dragons.
Emotions are naturally not betrayal or betrayal.
Gavin smiled and said: "Don't worry, this kind of thing requires the help of a lady."
When Gavin's eyes turned to the flute.
Daphne said on the side: "I know this flute. It's called the Shadow Dragon Flute. It was carved from a kind of shadow ebony from the shadow plane by the shadow spirit clan in the shadow plane.
This kind of shadow ebony only grows in places where the shadow dragon hangs out, and has some mysterious connection with it.
Only shadow spirits or shadow creatures can use this special instrument, because every time it is blown, the essence of the soul is used.
There will be an impact on the soul. In most cases, this damage is temporary and will recover on its own after a period of cultivation.
But if the summoned shadow dragon is too greedy and powerful, this damage may become permanent."
