Chapter 57: Friend, Should You Be ......
No matter how angry he was, the person behind the male voice gradually calmed down, and he knew that venting at this time could not change anything, but would affect his judgment of the next situation. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"The lizards told me that they could definitely succeed in the assassination, and there would be no remaining problems, so I let their people hide in the caravan......"
There was a sound of dragging, and it seemed that the man had found a chair to sit on, and his voice was a little tired: "I didn't expect that dragon slayer to be so strong, two golden mid-level, such a powerful demon blood dragon, failed to die in the case of poison and sneak attack...... Joshua Van Radcliffe, oh, this guy is going to come along the line of the caravan, think about itβI can't ...... it."
His hands were clenched into fists, and the green tendons on the back of his hands burst out, which seemed to make him feel a great sense of humiliation, and it was difficult for the man who claimed to control everything in his hands to accept this fact, but his cool mind still made him start to think: "Now, the most important thing is to destroy all the evidence that I made secret deals with the five-colored dragons, anyway, this line is not long, and those stupid dragons seem to really want to go to war with the Far Southerners and those elves, I should have broken this relationship a long time ago, this is just an opportunity." β
Thinking of this, the man couldn't help but start to congratulate himself on his caution, all the caravans under his command were nominally attached to a Western Chamber of Commerce controlled by him, but on the surface it had nothing to do with it, it was very simple for him to clear up the relationship, even if Joshua really came to the door, there was no way to do anything to him without evidence.
Now that he has decided on his thoughts, he will do it immediately, and after pondering for a while, the man called his butler, retrieved a secret spell communication device, and began to issue instructions one by one.
And the star fell in 832, November 7, in the evening, the main city of Moldavia, the lord's house.
In the surrounding streets, the crowds that had come to watch the explosion had been persuaded by the city guards to leave, and even the adventurers and mercenaries who wanted to see the excitement had returned to the taverns and inns because of the fading sky, ready for tomorrow's work or adventure.
The moon gradually rose, and the light of the twin moons was so bright that the unlit Lord's Mansion was so clear.
A silver-haired girl stood in the backyard, on the wreckage of the wall scattered by the dragon's breath explosion, kicking the brick debris in the moonlight.
Ying was wearing a snow-white silk dress today, with a translucent crystal flower headdress pinned to her head, and her white wrists and calves were exposed, and she didn't seem to feel uncomfortable because of the cold temperature that gradually entered the cold winter, and the moonlight shone on her body, as if crossing a layer of silver veil.
Of course, no matter what, she is a god, how can she be afraid of the cold, but this light and fluttering dress is not chosen by Ying herself, but Qiao Shuya thinks that girls should have a little ladylike demeanor, so she customizes a lot of light and fluttering clothes that girls should wear on weekdays, rather than double-breasted military coats, ladies riding clothes, white long shawl thickened shirts and other clothes that have no girlish beauty at all.
A quilt suit is definitely not something that a normal girl would wear! These are the exact words of the fighters.
"Master, he fights and doesn't take us!"
Kicking an almost oval fragment of a stone into the distance, Ying turned her head, her silver-white hair fluttered out, and she complained to the black-haired boy standing aside with a sad expression: "Brother, say something, don't you have any thoughts about this?" In this way, what is the reason for us to be a god machine, and what is the reason for survival! β
"Sister, what do I have to do now......
The delicate young man covered his heart with one hand, although there was no beating heart under the butler's suit and skin, but there was a rapidly rotating energy core, Rin had a disillusioned expression, and he was doing countless complicated mental calculations against the damaged lord's mansion: "Repair is more troublesome than rebuilding, and this cost has to come out of the already tight working capital, and the money that was hard-won from selling the white dragon materials last time will cost another part...... Yes! β
Covering his heart with his two hands, the young man closed his eyes in pain, and he pursed his thin lips, as if to keep his heart from hurting.
At the beginning, when the demon blood dragon let out a dragon's breath and collapsed the wall, Rin and Ying, who were originally on the side, came nearby, but it was obvious that the angry Joshua did not notice the expectant eyes of his weapon, but flew directly into the sky and chased the two fleeing dragons.
In fact, a minute after the battle, Moria, the old dwarf who had been in Beppu, came here to see it, he smacked his lips, shook his head and sighed a few times, and then returned to Beppu, not at all worried about Joshua's safety.
In his opinion, instead of caring about the monster that can fight back and forth with the extreme will of the Aragami, it is better to grind himself a cup of elf coffee sent by Cleel from the Far South to wake up, and he has a new understanding of the structure and forging method of rune armor pieces that have recently exploded, in order to solidify the inspiration into a real entity, the old dwarf still needs to work hard for a while, and he doesn't have that time to care about people who don't need to care.
Just as Rin took out a notebook and wrote and drew on it with a frown, while Ying sat on the wreckage of a wall and looked up at the moon, Joshua, Atanis and Lolanda walked slowly from outside the city.
Along the way, many citizens greeted Joshua, and the warriors waved their hands in response, and some adventurers and mercenaries even applauded and celebrated the lord who had succeeded in slaying the dragon again, and Joshua did not hide his smile at all, because he walked back to the lord's mansion in joy, even the pain caused by the demolition of his home was alleviated a lot.
At the back of the three-person team, there are city guards carrying two huge dragon heads into the city, they want to put these two dragon heads in the middle of the square, tomorrow morning, the hired mage will deal with these materials accordingly, and this time is the time for the citizens to watch their lord's achievements, before Joshua went to the White Dragon Lair to slaughter the dragon, although it was widely praised because of some adventurers who accidentally observed this scene, but there was no particularly shocking instance, And these two monstrous demonic blood giant dragon heads will definitely make his prestige even higher.
ββ¦β¦ It's a vibrant city, and in winter, people in the south take refuge in their houses and don't go out as much as possible. β
Looking at this scene, Lolanda muttered with emotion, he looked at some girls in the cold weather of November, still wearing short skirts and short sleeves, and couldn't help but be deeply shocked: "They ...... Isn't it cold?! β
And Joshua looked at the direction of the paladin's gaze with some curiosity, and then shook his head in disappointment: "It's okay, the weather is several degrees now, and it hasn't reached below zero yet, and if it doesn't freeze, it's not winter, at most it's late autumn." β
And even if it's icy, these Northland girls wear skirts until December and the beginning of the New Year, when the big blizzards are blowing. He didn't say that.
"Remarkable physique, no wonder according to folklore books, the Northland often produces brave warriors......"
Muttering in a low voice, Lolanda saw the Lord's Mansion in front of him from a distance, just as he imagined, the wall behind the Lord's Mansion collapsed, and the backyard was in shambles, but unexpectedly, a series of footsteps sounded, and two light figures trotted all the way to Joshua's side.
"Master, here's the list of losses."
The black-haired boy in the lead has a pair of bright golden eyes, handsome, slightly pointed face, his brows are slightly frowned, and his shoulder-length hair is a little messy, the young man came to the warrior's side, and immediately handed the notebook in his hand to Joshua who sighed, and the silver-haired girl standing behind the boy had snow-white skin, long hair up to her waist, and her eyes flashed with a glimmer like fireflies. I don't care about the flying skirt corners and the crystal headdress that is about to slip off the ends of my hair...... Between your eyebrows and sideburns, you look a little unhappy?
"Okay, I got it...... It's really good, thank you. β
Touching Rin's head, Joshua stirred his already messy hair even more, he looked at the detailed record of the loss in the notebook in his hand and the money needed for the repair list, he couldn't help but sigh again, and then closed it, the warrior naturally noticed that Ying, who was a little emotional, and also realized that he had hurt the hearts of the weapons again this time, and couldn't help but promise: "Okay, okay, this time I didn't pay attention, in fact, it will definitely be easier to bring you to fight this time, and I will definitely bring you next time, okay?" β
Originally, it was crushing, and this is still using weapons, which is really bullying those dragons.
Before this thought could flash in his mind, the magic projection of No. 3 swayed from the sky above the Lord's Mansion, the external image communication terminal of the artificial intelligence was expressionless, a long pale blue hair fluttered in the wind as if it were real, and black wings stretched out from behind her slender waist, slowly vibrating on the sides of her petite body.
"Looks like nothing ......"
Gaze--The reconnaissance technique swept over the group in front of him, and No. 3 muttered to himself, and then staggered up again, and left the lord's mansion under the gaze of everyone.
Because of the recent replenishment of energy with sufficient magic crystals, this artificial intelligence lady has been able to cover most of the city with her projection, and she also likes this strange way of moving, according to Number 3, it is this not optimal way of action that gives her a long-lost pleasure, which can speed up the healing of her soul that has been somewhat broken by thousands of years of loneliness.
At this point, Joshua can only go with her, anyway, there is no lack of energy, just be happy,
"Another strange man." Atanis muttered, and Mr. Bishop touched his beard, while the paladin on the side focused on the magic projection that was gradually moving away, and whispered to himself, "Ghost? Wing Man? Wingman ghosts? Sapient undead? Is it a lich? β
In an instant, he came up with several guesses, and then rejected them all, and Lolanda finally suddenly realized: "That's right, magic projection!" No wonder it looks like a ghost, but it doesn't have the breath of negative energy or ghosts...... But where did the Wingman come from? β
The previous doubt has not been resolved, and a new doubt arises out of thin air...... This lord's mansion is colorful.
But...... The paladin turned his head to look at the young girl who had been quietly following Joshua and had called him master before, he thought for a while, and then he was a little serious, but with a hint of hesitation, he said slowly: "Mr. Joshua." β
"Well, what's the matter?"
Qiao Shuya, who was thinking about what materials to sell the Demon Blood Dragon and the White Dragon in order to fill the gap in funds, instinctively responded, and then frowned and looked at the notebook in his hand.
Lolanda didn't notice this, he said to the warrior in front of him with a solemn and somewhat embarrassed face, "Although it may be your personal preference......
Hearing this, Joshua turned his head with a puzzled expression.
After a pause, the paladin glanced at Ying and Rin, as well as the back of No. 3 who was far away, he took a deep breath and said cautiously: "It is against the laws and dogma of the empire to shoot at children!" β
Joshua: "...... Yes? β
