Modesty half-squinted her eyes as she watched those little things walking around timidly in front of her. Those goblins and kobolds offered her fresh prey - elk and wild boar in the forest - and they put these things on the
Modesty raised it to her mouth, and then backed away far away, as if she was afraid that the giant dragon would swallow them in one bite, but the former had no appetite, and she only occasionally opened her eyes to scare these little things away.
, and take pleasure in it.
She was indeed waiting for someone, but it was not Malthus or some lost dwarf, but Guco, Gwendolyn's servant. Not long after Brando and others left, Guco arrived.
Suddenly, she brought a group of harpies down from the air, causing a commotion in the camp. Modesty looked at this little thing with half-squinted eyes. It was a rare harpy with emerald green feathers.
, but now he looked extremely embarrassed, with many burnt marks on his wings and several long feathers on his head missing.
"It seems that you have encountered a little trouble." Heilong's tone was a bit gloating.
"It's just a few bugs that sneaked into Greystone Town, useless tank servants." Gukou replied in the sharp voice unique to the harpy. She was indignant, but her tone did not only refer to sneaking into Greystone Town.
Brando and others, as well as Malthus, she owes her burnt feathers to the latter, which makes her very angry; she is Gwendolen's servant, so she has no worries about verbal offense.
In her opinion, Malthus was nothing more than that, far less powerful than her master.
Of course, when she was asked to face Malthus alone, she would never dare to speak like this.
The corners of Modesty's lips raised. She didn't care about the little thing's retort. It had nothing to do with her anyway. She said playfully: "Your master, that woman asked me to wait for you here."
"Praise the master." Gu Kou then showed a respectful expression.
This attitude made Modesty a little unhappy. Although she had to admit in her heart that among the three dragons, Glyndowen was the most powerful, but dragons are dragons, and she would never show timidity in front of outsiders easily.
Modesty snorted, and a trace of flame rose from the nearby tree crown. The smell of sulfur suddenly filled the air. She interrupted the latter coldly: "I have limited time, have you found that person? That person?"
The person your master asked you to seek."
Gu Kou seemed to feel the change in the attitude of the female dragon in front of her. She hesitated for a moment and then replied hesitantly: "No, I couldn't find her. Those humans were too powerful. I only took a look from a distance.
Later, Lord Malthus appeared and the city was in chaos, so I took advantage of the chaos and left."
"I can't handle even the smallest thing." Modesty said disdainfully, but despite her disdain, she was not disappointed at all. Seriously speaking, she didn't care about those human plans at all. She and Malthus also didn't.
I didn't come here for this matter, but just to do Glyndowen a favor. Although even Modesty herself found it strange why that woman would be so obedient to a mere human being, she was simply an idiot.
But she didn't dare to say this. Who said she couldn't defeat the opponent?
She frowned and asked slightly impatiently: "You just arrived now. You must have returned to Greystone Town afterwards. So did you find her body?"
Although Modesty is absent-minded, it does not mean that she is not thoughtful enough. On the contrary, the long life and experience of the dragons have given them wisdom far beyond ordinary people.
"The city has long been reduced to ruins, and there is no way to find it," Gu Kou replied awkwardly: "However, there are no human corpses left in the city, only the remains of some gargoyles. I think they were left by the humans who sneaked in.
"
Modesty was absent-minded and just asked casually, but when she heard the word gargoyle, she jumped up as if someone stepped on her tail: "Gargoyle? Are you sure?"
The harpy was slightly startled and stared at her in confusion, not understanding what this reaction was.
But Ms. Black Dragon raised her head high and said to herself angrily: "Damn it, it turns out he hasn't passed through Greystone Town yet. There are no human corpses left at the scene, which means that someone has cleaned the battlefield. It is definitely not Malthus."
Damn it, he must have gone after that bitch Mythril! Damn it! They must have escaped, no, they can't go far, they don't dare to stay in Greystone Town, they must be hiding in the river.
Among the hills near Silver Valley!"
She said two damn words in a row, which was enough to prove the anger in her heart at the moment. There was only one person in the entire Andzlova who had a large number of gargoyles at the moment, and she and Malthus could be said to be here for this person, exactly.
She said that he came for the Earth Sword in the opponent's hand. The last time that person disappeared was before Qiao Gendigang started to attack Anzeruta. She originally thought that according to the opponent's speed, he should have left the Bear Lake area long ago.
But he didn't know that Brando had not abandoned the Cruz nobles, and he had to avoid Jogendigon's detection and choose difficult hilly areas along the way, so it was delayed until this time.
As soon as she heard Guco's description at this moment, she realized that she had just missed something, and she couldn't help but secretly curse that idiot Malthus.
"I was so close before my eyes, but I didn't realize that it was Bai who had a pair of eyes!" Modesty was furious: "No wonder we temporarily sensed the existence of the Earth Sword last night, damn it!"
"Earth Sword!"
Gu Kou exclaimed. In her field of vision, the black dragon suddenly stood up and spread its wings. The huge wings almost covered the entire valley. The latter began to flap its wings, and the air flow caused the surrounding goblins and kobolds to stagger around.
Gukou was also unable to stand firmly. She was flying with the crazy airflow, while screaming: "Sir Modesty?"
"Listen!" Modesty said coldly: "The task Glyndowen asked you to complete is to make sure that the woman cannot leave Andzlova. Whether it is temporarily or permanently, you don't have to do it.
Find her, I believe you can understand what I say."
"Lord Modesty, will she be with those people?"
"That woman came here for revenge. She can't be with that guy." Black Dragon sneered: "But if they are together, it will save a lot of trouble. I will ask the master who calls you to thank me!"
Modesty's voice still echoed in the sky above the valley, but the entire dragon had already risen into the sky. When everyone in the valley raised their heads, they could only see a small shadow in the sky.
…
Hiding in the jungle on the mountainside in the distance, several lolita were being blown around, but before the violent airflow could calm down, Chiara rushed over, grabbed Roman's sleeve, and asked loudly: "How is it?
So, did you hear what they were saying?"
"Shh!" Roman turned around, put his index finger to his lips and made a silencing gesture to the two of them: "Keep your voice down."
"Then did you hear it?" Chiara asked softly again.
Roman nodded and recounted the conversation between the dragon and the harpy.
After hearing her description, the former let out a low cheer. Chiara had had Ms. Shagos's idea from the beginning and wanted to get more information from here - as for the danger, she had never considered that kind of thing.
, the satisfaction of curiosity cannot be prevented by danger. This is not an empty statement. But even she did not expect that the whole thing would go so smoothly, just like she did not expect to bump into a dragon in this valley.
, she said somewhat triumphantly: "See, we are indeed at the right place. Although we did not expect that dragon to be here, they are obviously looking for Delphine, which can explain a lot of problems!"
"Really?" Roman asked confused.
"Of course!" Chiara replied categorically, with a moving light flashing in her eyes, a look that feared that the world would be unstable: "The nature of this matter is completely different now, don't you understand?
, Roman, this is not just a human conspiracy, there are dragons involved, whether it is Count Freut or the prime minister of the empire, it is impossible for them to make the dragon move. The facts have proven what I described
After all, in the entire empire, there are only a few people who can do this, no, no, no, in fact, there are only two of them."
"Have you guessed who it is?" Roman may not have understood the meaning of this sentence, but he still asked curiously based on instinct.
"My intuition tells me that this should be the case, but my reason tells me that it is absolutely impossible," Chiara answered a little cautiously, but everyone could see that she was shaking with excitement, as if she was not facing a heavenly being.
A big conspiracy, but a particularly interesting puzzle: "No, we should choose to believe in reason first. I need more evidence." She licked her lips.
This is what is meant by the so-called "like-minded" people. The three guys present who were afraid of chaos in the world all understood this sentence at the same time. They all subconsciously cast their eyes on the grass not far away.
Somewhere, a certain unlucky dwarf seemed to feel the severe chill, and couldn't help but groan and struggle.
Chiara kicked him: "Don't make a sound."
Then she clicked her knuckles and turned around: "Okay, now we will execute the script written below as planned!"
"But Brando asked us not to get into trouble." Roman replied with some worry.
"This is not causing trouble," Chiara sneered at this: "This is doing him a favor. That guy is good at everything, but he is too stupid. If I don't take action, I'm afraid he will be sold to others and have to help count the money. Of course.
, In principle, that guy and I are enemies, but after all, I am still in this envoy, and I don’t have the habit of accompanying people to death, so I had to reluctantly help him. Besides..."
"Say more?"
Chiara blushed: "It's nothing, just blame me for being too kind."
However, the elf nearby could not see how kind-hearted this human girl, who was about her own age, could not help frowning and trying very hard to repair her world view, which was almost torn apart.
…
Chiara's original plan was very simple, which was to let poor Poli Fire Anvil go to Ms. Shagos to talk things over. Now maybe she would also add a harpy. This plan was absolutely bold, because the old dwarf always
Entering the camp is equivalent to breaking away from their control, so the first difficulty in this plan is to convince Bori. Fire Anvil to convince the dwarf that if he dares to do this, the gain will outweigh the loss.
Chiara's persuasion work was very simple. She only patted Mr. Dwarf's chubby face and told him: "This is a good opportunity for you to prove that you have not betrayed and have nothing to do with this matter. You always
You are not stupid enough to turn us in, are you? You see, since you have betrayed them and there is no way to make amends, the news we got from you has now been spread, so what you have to do now is to get rid of the relationship
, you escaped all the way from Greystone Town without meeting anyone on the way, and there was no chance for the news to leak out, right?"
The old dwarf's face was red, making people suspect that if he had an ax in his hand, he would definitely jump up and challenge Chiara for a duel. Although dueling with a human girl does not seem to be a glorious thing, it is better than being humiliated like this.
good.
It's a pity that Mr. Poli. Fire Anvil is not his stubborn compatriots after all. They can endure the monotonous mining operations in underground tunnels day after day, as if such a rigid character has been integrated into the blood of this race, but he is different.
, he is a unique dwarf who pursues freedom and enjoyment. He has always been proud of his independence. Except for now, Pori Fire Anvil has never hated his own weakness as much as he does now.
He had vowed a moment ago that he would take revenge no matter what once he was out of trouble, but Chiara had just released him, and Mr. Dwarf couldn't help but hesitate in his heart.
Maybe Chiara was right. He drifted all the way from Greystone Town to this place and didn't meet any humans along the way. He and the people Qiao Gendigang were looking for were basically taking two routes. If he hadn't said it,
No one would suspect him; he could still safely report the situation to Ms. Sargos, whom he had never met before, and pretend that nothing happened. Anyway, everything that happened in Greystone Town had nothing to do with him.
, it’s all the fault of that damn black dragon, but you can’t blame him for being too incompetent. After this matter is over, he can happily be his alchemist and pretend that nothing happened.
.
Bo Li Huo Anvil just thought about it for a moment, and his mind became more active.
When he rubbed his wrists and walked out of the woods, he was still a little nervous at first, but he returned to normal in a moment and entered the state. The three ladies followed him under Roman's invisibility spell, and Chiara was still there.
He reminded the former in a low voice: "Just tell that lovely lizard lady what you originally wanted to report. There is no need to make up any lies, and there is no need to worry about being exposed."
When the dwarf heard this, his heart felt relieved again, and he even couldn't help but feel a little grateful to the latter, although this emotion was inexplicable.
However, Chiara threatened again after a moment: "But if a few of us are unfortunately caught, we will report you as soon as possible. As a reliable companion, we must bear the burden of difficulties. This is what a noble should do."
quality."
Poor Mr. Poli. Fire Anvil's face turned dark after hearing these words. Even Xianni, who was lying on the elf's head, couldn't help but roll her eyes. For a while, only Roman was still in high spirits.
Regardless of what Lao Boli was thinking at the moment, Chiara, who was under the influence of the invisibility spell, turned back to look at the elf - they were actually under an invisible curtain, and the witch's spell
It has the same effect as Brando's Giant King's cloak. It can also block sight and breath, and can also see each other. However, the only flaw is that it will be discovered by detection spells. Fortunately, goblins and kobolds do not have these.
Pay attention to.
The elf looked at Chiara with some fear, and subconsciously grasped the demon-slaying gun in her hand. The latter said viciously: "Remember what I said, don't be soft later."
The elf nodded quickly.
Poli Fire Anvil arrived outside the camp soon. The goblins and kobolds obviously had no idea of vigilance. Besides, Modesty didn't need to be vigilant. Who would suddenly be confused about the trouble of finding a real giant dragon? What if?
If there really is such a person, I'm afraid even goblins and kobolds can't guard against them. When these little things saw the dwarves approaching, they reacted hurriedly. For a while, there were screams in the camp. Kobolds are called in many legends.
They are dragonborn, but their barks are genuine barking dogs, which is why they got their name. These little things barked together while carefully pointing their spears at the old dwarf, who
After a lot of gestures and gestures, he finally explained his purpose.
But at this time, Chiara saw a kobold wearing a robe walking out of the camp with a strange look on his face. He was holding a staff and gesticulating at the dwarf from a distance.
"Kobold mentor!" Xianni wanted to cover her face with her paws. She couldn't help but look back at the little human girl next to her. Didn't they agree that kobolds would never use magic to detect such high-end things?
"Damn it," Chiara was also startled and couldn't help complaining: "These underground kobolds are somewhat different from our surface world kobolds."
"Now is not the time to complain, what should I do?" Xianni was so frightened that she was trembling. Although kobolds and goblins are nothing to be afraid of, there are at least hundreds of goblins around at the moment. If they are suddenly exposed,
Even if they each had a spear, they would still turn them into hedgehogs. She didn't want to turn into a hedgehog. Lady Shani's adventure on the continent had just begun.
Although the elf didn't understand what happened for a while, she also understood that it was definitely not a good thing. She was already very nervous, and now she was so scared that she was about to cry.
