"The Wyvern's own combat power is much higher than that of a griffin. Isn't it normal to have a higher price? Claudia said as a matter of course.

Hearing this, Barrett ignored Claudia, and turned his gaze directly to Rielly: "Mage? Is this your rating? ”

"It's none of my business?" Speaking of this, Rielly paused, "I just said that the Wyvern is a little stronger than the Griffon. However, that guy has a much better size, and is relatively suitable for the caster to ride. ”

The bronze wyvern statue was made from a template for the common bipedal wyvern. So the summoned creatures are about 16 feet long, and the wingspan is about 20 feet. Although nearly half of the length of the body is a tail. But it also makes their average weight more than 2,000 pounds. Adult griffons are only 8 feet long from nose to tail. Although a pair of distinct golden wings have a wingspan of more than 25 feet. But the griffons weigh only about 500 pounds.

The difference in size gives the bipedal wyvern an absolute advantage in terms of physical fitness compared to the griffin. It's not just the basic qualities that determine combat effectiveness, but also combat experience and special abilities that belong to each creature. The griffon, which has the ability to pounce and rake and grab, immediately has a certain advantage, and the bipedal wyvern's chelation toxin, although also very powerful, is still at a disadvantage.

However, with more innate weapons available, thicker scales, and more tenacious vitality, the Wyvern will naturally be able to eat a griffin in a one-on-one battle. However, in the case of one against two, most of the time there is no chance of victory. As a minion, the griffon is much more useful than the bipedal cost in terms of facing enemies alone.

After all, griffons with a natural preference for pounce, dive attacks, or leaps at their prey from above - more flexible in sport warfare. And the bipedal wyvern, who is proficient in grappling, is actually more suitable for one-on-one heads-up. On board, the griffin is significantly better than the bipedal wyvern in maneuverability – the dual advantage of a wider wingspan and a lighter weight. So this creature is actually more useful for small teams

What's more, the price of a bronze dragon statue is almost worth two bronze griffin statues. That's the main reason why Barrett just reminded him - if it was cheaper, he might have pinched his nose and admitted it.

However, after hearing Rielly's last words, Barrett also understood the other party's plan. If the Gryphon is a pretty good physics mount (because there are competitors like Pegasus and Storm, it's far from the best). The Wyvern, then, is usually the favorite of spellcasters.

What the? You say that the Wyvern's attack after diving is not as advantageous as that of the griffin's inflexibility? But the caster on their back doesn't need the mount under their crotch to perform that kind of thrilling tactic. As for the low mobility of the flight, the caster also does not care. They don't need that kind of wobbling maneuver, but rather to ensure that they can cast spells, and they want their mounts to fly as smoothly as possible under their crotch - the Wyvern is a disadvantage in the eyes of other classes, but it is exactly what most spellcasters want. In other words, the technical requirements for attack aircraft and bombers are different.

After figuring out what was going on, Barrett touched his chin, "Mages like it, is this why the 'Dragon God of Good' dares to sell this thing for such a high price?" ”

"They seem to be the only ones on the Western Continent who have the technology to make bronze wyvern statues?" As if she felt that her words were not careful enough, Rielly then added: "At least they are the only ones who sell this strange thing publicly." ”

Hearing this, Barrett tapped his finger on the table: "The unique monopoly business is really easy to do." Even if it is an organization of the good camp, it will not be soft at such a time. Anyway, those who can afford it are local tyrants, and if they are very cheap, it may be enough for many poor people in the slums to survive the winter. ”

"Can I think Barrett, you're deliberately sarcastic?" Claudia, narrowed her eyes, asked with bared teeth.

Hearing this, Barrett shook his head repeatedly: "No! I didn't mean anything about it. It's just that I think it's good to do good deeds. ”

"Don't think I can't hear it. What if the old lady has money to buy it? Claudia was immediately energetic.

Barrett, who knew that he was not suitable for any more trouble in this matter, immediately served tea to cover up his embarrassment: "Eliminate the fire, eliminate the fire, what are you doing so loudly." It's like I won't let you do it. However, there is still a price difference of 9,000 gold coins, is your current private money enough? ”

"Don't forget that my golden lion statue is no longer enough, and with the bronze dragon statue, I can only sit on a cold bench." Speaking of this, Claudia smiled proudly, "At this time, it should be enough to exchange it out, even if it is a discount." ”

"Wait! Don't do that, if you send it directly to the auction house! Ulrique's 'Papworth' auction house has always had a good reputation, and although it takes a few days to wait, it is much more cost-effective than a discount. "The noodles on the side are in a hurry now. Although it wasn't his money that was wasted, the wanderer still couldn't help it when he saw someone like this.

"The auction is going to take a long time, right? So what now? Claudia spoke.

Klaimatis snapped his fingers: "I'll take care of this." As a golden-eyed messenger on pilgrimage, it's easy to borrow some money from the local church temporarily. If, as the noodles say, it can be sold in a few days, it is much more cost-effective to calculate the interest. ”

"Don't worry! Ulrik is also the royal capital of Norhan, so the 'Papworth' auction house has a small auction every 4 days. In the case of this single golden lion statue in our hands, it should not be able to be auctioned. Noodle began to tell his companions what he had learned.

But then Rielly frowned and asked, "The premise of all this is not to be auctioned!" If the auction is unsuccessful, if the interest is calculated, it will not be a loss to steal chickens! ”

"Don't worry! Strange things like this that anyone can use are still very popular in Ulrique. In particular, some second generations who need human protection have a greater need for them. The halfling loiter patted his chest and picked up the ticket.

After seeing that the differences between the two sides were not big, Barrett intervened again: "Then you can take someone to handle the noodles and Kleimatis." Remember to be careful of those troubles you may encounter on the road. ”

"They didn't find me that easily." Noodles tilted his head slightly and smiled. And Clematis pulled Rielly and Lalu together: "The three of us go together, and if they want to find trouble, they have to weigh whether their strength is enough." ”

The self-confidence of their companions is a good thing, which shows that their positioning of their own strength is gradually clear and clear - although it is far from being a high-end combat power, ordinary minions have to weigh the consequences if they want to find fault.

As they had hoped, both teams were successful in their missions. And when they returned, Claudia got her wish and got the bronze wyvern she wanted.

"Claudia, actually, you bought this, not just for yourself!" Looking at the real master who was constantly stroking and looking at the bronze statue, Barrett suddenly spoke.

Claudia suddenly put the statue back in her pocket and said with a smile: "No matter who uses it, it is the combat power of the team!" ”

"Forget it! Be as happy as you like! Barrett stretched his waist at this point, "Now the advanced problem of noodles has been solved." We should be figuring out how to think about what to do next. If a new adventure drags on for too long, people will be lazy. ”

"Yes! It's really a new direction. Rielly, who was holding the cat, echoed, "But it's different from the previous one that had a specific goal, and after ending the problem in front of me, I don't know why I feel empty and dazed!" I really couldn't think of what to do for a while. ”

"How about not going to the Spice Islands in the south? Barrett had said before that he wanted to venture where he wanted to go, and now that he couldn't find any suitable targets, why didn't the big guy take a look? At this moment, Lalu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke in a milky voice.

Hearing this, Clematis's eyes suddenly lit up: "The real southern style! We haven't really seen it until now? On the contrary, I rolled in the snow more often. I think I can make up for this shortcoming. ”

"To the Spice Islands? If the waterway is clear, why not go and see it. Barrett also nodded at this time: "I hope those fishmen don't make trouble for the ships coming and going anymore." When the auction of the golden lion is over, we will set off immediately. ”

Unfortunately, the plan is far from changing as fast as it is. Before the auction of the golden lion was over, Barrett, who lived in the Bolim Merchant, received a letter from the city of Poitou. The envelope with the glued red wax seal on it seems to prove very clearly the sender.

Looking at the mark under the excitement corner, Barrett took out the badge that represented his status in the family. Then he lightly covered the sealing wax, and the red sealing wax burned spontaneously without fire, and it did not affect the envelope itself at all - the envelope in front of them was specially made, and if those who did not know the truth planned to open it, they would only get a pile of gray-black powder.

After opening the envelope, Barrett took out a piece of fine alchemical paper 9 inches long and 6 inches wide, the edge of which was embossed with the personal seal of the Earl. Barrett, who had received a cryptography education in the territory, immediately took a pen and paper and began to decipher the second insurance.

And the more content is deciphered, the deeper the wrinkles on Barrett's forehead. After finishing the task at hand, Barrett touched the minibus and thought for a while, but finally shook his head and sighed. When dinner was over, he immediately summoned his companions back to his bedroom. Then he gave Noodle a look.

Receiving Barrett's gesture for noodles, he was stunned at first, but he still had doubts on his face, but he still obediently came to the window to listen to the news outside. And the rest of the players who saw this scene were also full of surprise - you must know that this is the merchant hall of the Boreham Chamber of Commerce, and generally speaking, players are not afraid of the wall to discuss problems here. There was such a big change suddenly today, and it was true that several players became gasping for breath.

After clapping his hands lightly and waking his companions from their thoughts, Barrett spoke very seriously, "All right! Guys, there's very important news for you right now, and that is that I, and Rielly and Laru's free time has ended, and the Boreham family has just enlisted us back to the realm. Looks like there's something waiting for us. ”

"Bring back the territory?" Rielly touched her chin, "Could it be that the Boreham family has made a big move." ”

Now that he has joined the camp of the Bolim family, he has enjoyed a lot of benefits by relying on this relationship before. Then Rielly naturally understands that she will have to pay the price for this one day - raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, usually supporting you, and the other party will naturally not be polite when needed.

"If that's the case, what are you waiting for? Wouldn't it be better to hit the road tomorrow? Claudia said and glared at Barrett, "Isn't this a big deal, do you need to make it so mysterious?" It's a deliberate frightening surprise. ”

"First of all, this news was not reported to me by the steward here, but from the direction of Poitou. So the rest of the people in this merchant house didn't know about it. Speaking of this, Barrett emphasized that "although the specific reason is not clear." But the Earl did not let the people here know, and must have his own intentions. So today's smile, you hear it and close your mouth. Don't make a fuss all over Ulrike in a few days. ”

"Don't worry! As long as we say it beforehand, our mouths are very strict. Clematis, who had grown up for the ticket, immediately asked, "Then what is the reason why the Earl sent you this secret letter?" ”

The specific reason was not stated in the letter! However, I am afraid that it has to do with the situation in the Cruze Kingdom to the south. Barrett touched his chin and said, "Not to mention, I don't guarantee that everyone present will be able to participate in this mission." So whether to talk to us about Poitu City, you better think about it. ”

"What else is there to think about! Even if they plan to go south to the Spice Islands. Kono Khan's only outlet to the sea is in Boreham's territory! You'll have to walk there anyway. Klermatis pouted. (To be continued.) )
