"Ah! This is it!" The beholder came to a gorgeous giant door. The surface of this giant door was inlaid with many red and green gems, and the liquid made of melted gold was used to outline the beautiful edges.
The beholder used an eye stalk to take out the Gorol Stone and embedded it in a circular hole in the center of the giant door.
With a "click", the giant door slowly opened.
"Oh my God." The scene behind the door, even as rich as Imrik, can't help but sigh. In the center of the hall, a large number of gold coins are piled up casually, like a hill. In addition, there are also dots of gold coins.
Gemstones adorn it.
"At least more than half a million gold coins." Imrik made a rough estimate, not counting the value of those gems.
Although the beholder was looking greedily at the wealth in the treasure house at this time, she still stood at the door, looking around vigilantly, as if she was afraid that something would come out.
"You! Go in and take a look." The beholder instructed Imrik to explore the way for her.
Imrik was helpless. Now was not the time to break up with her. He had to first confirm whether the golden dragon was still here.
So he walked in, crossed the hill of gold coins, and walked cautiously inside to look around.
Although it is deep underground, the treasure trove is illuminated by sunlight pouring from the ceiling, which illuminates the dust in the air into glowing particles. Ornate stone columns support the thirty-foot-tall dome.
On the dome is a scene of dwarves bathing in the grace of the dwarf gods. There are niches on the walls, which are also covered with precious items.
An elderly dwarf walked out of the dusty darkness. He was leaning on a strange crutch. On the crutch was carved a pair of intertwined dragons - a golden dragon and a red dragon. Although the dwarf looked vicissitudes of life,
, but his eyes are firm and bright.
He lowered his head and muttered: "As you can see, this place is a mess. Can you come in later and I'll clean it up first."
Imrik was startled. A dwarf actually appeared in this place?
He couldn't help but use detection magic, and the dazzling magic light of the dwarf's crutch almost blinded him.
This is probably the human form of the golden dragon. The mage guessed in his mind.
Imrik prepared his words in his mind and said: "Hello, are you the Golden Dragon Lord who once lived here."
The dwarf raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Oh? How did you know there was a golden dragon here?"
Imrik breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it was indeed the golden dragon. In that case, it would be easy to handle.
He frowned in embarrassment and looked back with some fear. Finally, as if he had made up his mind, he gritted his teeth and said:
"I hope to see Mr. Jin Long. I have something very important to tell him."
The dwarf glanced behind Imrik curiously, but the distance and the hills blocked his view, making it impossible for him to see the beholder standing outside the door.
So the dwarf said: "If you have anything to say, just tell me and I will convey it to him."
Imric hesitated for a while, and finally sighed and said: "There is a beholder standing outside the door. She said there is a golden dragon here, and forced me to help him sneak attack on the golden dragon, and then kill him and steal the treasure.
!”
He paused and continued gritting his teeth: "I dare not disobey her because she will kill me immediately, but I also cannot tolerate myself helping her hunt a kind golden dragon."
The dwarf nodded thoughtfully after hearing this, and said with a smile: "So you plan to tell the golden dragon and help him kill this beholder in turn, right?"
Imrik nodded solemnly.
When the dwarf saw this, he laughed and said, "Don't worry, that beholder can't hurt me at all. In fact, if she hadn't run so fast, I would have crushed her big eyeballs last time."
Imrik said in surprise: "You? Are you the Golden Dragon?"
The dwarf smiled and nodded and said: "Yes, I am the golden dragon. I can help you kill the beholder, but she is too cunning. I guess she sent you in because she wanted to see if I was there.
, right, let’s do this, you go out and tell her that there is no golden dragon here, and when she comes in, we will cooperate inside and outside to keep her here forever.”
Imric nodded happily and said: "Of course! Your Excellency Golden Dragon, it is my honor to serve the kind dragon!"
Imrik was overjoyed. With the help of the golden dragon, the beholder was basically dead. He eliminated her first and then considered how to deceive the golden dragon.
So he walked quickly back to the door and said to the beholder: "Beautiful Zannasa, I walked around without seeing a single creature. Has the golden dragon left?"
The beholder was overjoyed after hearing this. Although she was ready to fight the giant dragon, it was good news that the other party was not around. You know, the golden dragon was already an adult!
She opened her bloody mouth, and her sharp and harsh voice echoed in the cave: "Oh ho ho ho! Let's go! Move all these gold coins back to my lair!"
After learning about the absence of the golden dragon, the beholder floated in without any scruples. Her poor brain did not even think about the possibility of Imric deceiving her.
Imric followed behind him, seeing the beholder spinning happily in front of the gold coins, and thought to himself: Good opportunity.
He raised one hand and pointed it at the beholder, chanting a spell in a low voice: "Lightning Beam!"
A thick electric current burst out from her hand and shot towards the beholder. The beholder felt the elemental fluctuations and was startled. When she looked back, a thick electric current hit her big eye.
"Ah!" the beholder screamed, and was pushed to the mountain of gold coins by the powerful kinetic energy of the lightning beam. However, the strong spell resistance made this three-ring spell only leave a dark, burnt surface on the beholder's eyes.
The beholder struggled to levitate and screamed angrily: "Damn mage! How dare you betray me! I'm going to skin you!"
She raised an eye stalk, and the gray finger of death ray condensed and shot towards Imrik.
A strong sense of crisis filled Imrik instantly. He knew that if he was hit by this ray, he would never be able to save the instant death effect due to the huge level gap between him and the beholder.
So he flashed, and a silver mist enveloped him and he teleported 30 feet away, perfectly missing the death ray.
Seeing that one attack failed, the beholder planned to shoot ray barrages from ten of them in turn.
Suddenly, a huge roar sounded from beside me: "Zanasa! Shameless evil person, how dare you threaten others to plot against me!"
The dwarf jumped out from the shadow, and his figure continued to expand and grow in the air, and finally turned into a huge golden dragon.
"Adult Dragon" Looking at the huge size of the golden dragon, Imrik silently calculated in his mind that an adult golden dragon, even without a profession, can naturally cast spells equivalent to a seventh-level warlock, plus it has a powerful body and breath.
He couldn't help but feel miserable for Zannasa. Sure enough, when he heard the roar of the golden dragon, Zannasa turned around in fright, and the giant claws of the golden dragon covered the top of her head.
The might of the dragon's claws set off a strong wind. If this claw is taken, the beholder will probably be smashed into pulp.
