Chapter 286: Treasure and Dragon Maiden
Shantil slept soundly and couldn't wake up no matter how she tried it. Henry knew that this might be the last step for the Warlock to complete his transformation, and once the legend was over, it would no longer be a dream. He scrubbed the sorceress of the blood from her body, laid it aside, and began to dispose of the red dragon's body.
Since the two people tossed for a bit of a long time, the dragon's blood has been lost in large quantities. After a long time, only three barrels were collected. Then came skinning, cramping, and boning, and it took Henry more than two hours to do the whole work without help. Fortunately, the current body is strong enough, otherwise he would have been tired and would have fallen down.
Seeing that Shantil hadn't woken up yet, he summoned a few ogre warriors to help take stock of the treasure trove. It is really worthy of an old dragon, not only has a large number of gold coins and gems, but also a lot of various materials and magic items. Among them, a two-handed sword, a one-handed greatsword, and a chain flail are the most eye-catching.
The latter two are the weapons used by Faircrag in his humanoid form, and the last two-handed sword is supposed to be the famous legendary weapon "Holy Avenger". After a simple identification, the specific information of these three weapons was quickly obtained.
Flails: "Sacred Sacrifice"
Many creatures on the continent have gone to great lengths to capture this shackle, as few weapons can match it. This flail was forged by a powerful demon lord who, in order to transform himself into a stronger form, forged the weapon with his heart and sprinkled his own blood on the flail to prevent anyone of good will from using this infernal artifact.

Greatsword: "Contempt for Virtue"
The sword, forged in place of perfect goodness with utter evil, means that only the most heartless can touch and defy virtue. How did this weapon come to Ferron? Before the death of a powerful demon lord, this weapon was forged. He killed a lot of completely innocent creatures. Including Treants. Elves, gnomes, and baby silver dragons.
The hilt of this strange weapon is made from the egg of a silver dragon and the blood of the elves, and the blade is made from the bones of dryads and gnomes, and the demon lord completes the weapon with his evil thoughts and gives it the ability to fight against good. That lord later died while casting a sacred sacrifice, a shackle.
Only the evil faction can use it

Two-handed greatsword, Holy Avenger: "Kasomir"
Casomer is a legendary weapon, perhaps one of the most powerful weapons in Feron. However, its origins and history have been completely forgotten. This sword never disappoints. It has the essence of virtue and can only be used by holy warriors. When this sword is unsheathed, the evils in the kingdom should indeed stand aside, their spells will be scattered with a single word, and they can easily resist their magic. Cassomir is also particularly disgusted by the power of evil and chaos, and creatures must be careful about the extra damage they deal in combat.
Equipment Capabilities:
Greatly increases magic resistance
Combat Capabilities:
Automatically casts "Disarming Magic" when an enemy is hit.
Dispel magic three times a day (equivalent to the effect of a level 15 caster)
Seeing these three extremely powerful weapons, Henry couldn't help but let out a wry smile. The first two are clearly intended for melee classes such as Warriors of the Evil Camp and Dark Guardians (also known as Anti-Paladins), while the latter are the embodiment of complete goodness and can only be held by Paladins. Unfortunately, so far, it has not been useful. He had no paladins under him. There are also no fighters from the evil camp either.
It's no wonder that Faircrag has been attacking in human form since the beginning, and it turns out that it is because of these two weapons. But apparently he miscalculated. Neither herself nor the Sorceress are of the good camp, so these two weapons, although powerful, do not have much effect.
The maker of "sacred sacrifices" and "contempt for virtue" is obviously very powerful, and at least a second-level demon lord. Having analysed the black blood that permeated the shackles, Henry found that it was the purest form of evil and chaos, and that the slightest touch of it could reveal the hidden sin in his soul.
As for the last Holy Avenger, it is a super-powerful weapon against spellcasters and evil creatures. However, due to its special requirements for the owner, it is destined to become a precious collector's item. Unless Henry could find a wandering paladin without a response from the gods, he would never hand over this powerful two-handed sword to anyone.
After placing the three weapons in place, he teleported Pixenlouis back to the Mage Tower. Although the little guy's abilities have improved a lot as the mage's level increases, it is still too fragile compared to powerful creatures such as dragons, lichs, and vampires.
After resting for more than an hour, Shantil's eyelids moved slightly, and then she opened her eyes and slowly sat up, checking the various changes in her body. She touched the long curved horn on her head, and then the flexible tail behind her buttocks. If it weren't for the fact that his feet were still intact, it would be a living Tavelin.
"It's a really amazing change, I just don't know if walking on the streets of the city will cause a riot." The sorceress muttered under her breath, then smiled self-deprecatingly.
Henry noticed that Shantil's eyes were very unusual. Not only do there are multiple pupils, but they also have a very peculiar pattern. He hurriedly ran over and asked, "How is it, do you have any strange feelings?" Especially the eyes, how do you see things differently than before? ”
"Eyes?" The sorceress frowned. Immediately used magic to create a small piece of ice to use as a mirror. "Oh my God! What's going on! Why are my eyes like this? ”
Heng used his magic to examine it carefully. No anomalies were found. Maybe he's overhearted. You must know that there are many varieties of demons in the abyss, and new varieties are born every moment. It's not unusual to see some strange-looking demons once in a while, as they are inherently symbols of chaos.
"It's not a big deal, maybe it's just some atavism. Now it's almost certain that you're of demonic blood, so it's not too outrageous to have weird eyes. Henry comfortingly stroked the sorceress's fiery red hair.
Shantil was also a little helpless about the change in appearance, but it was quickly replaced by the joy of the power of ascension. "Haha, I'm already a level nineteen warlock now, and I'm just a little bit close to crossing that hurdle. Become a powerful legendary spellcaster. ”
"That's really gratifying. You must know that the rest of our journey will be very dangerous, and every little strength we gain will give us an extra chance to survive. Henry nodded with satisfaction, this was the news he wanted to hear the most.
Redoning her robes, Shantil cast a newly learned level 8 magic "ghost form". I saw that her body was in a ghost-like state, and it could only be done with magic weapons or pure energy damage. In this form, all physical attacks have a half-chance of missing, and limiting spells such as "Entanglement" and "Greasy" will not work.
"In addition to this, I also learned a ninth-level magic "Otherworldly Gate". However, summoning a powerful demon is really a bit dangerous, so I won't demonstrate it here. In addition, the number of spells cast by my level 6, 8, and 9 spells has been increased by one each. The sorceress smugly reported her new strength.
Hear the magic of the "Otherworldly Gate". Henry immediately warned sternly: "Remember, if it is not a last resort, you must not use it at will." And before casting. Be sure to double-check if you have the blessing of "Protecting against Evil", as soon as there is a slight mistake, this demon will immediately turn around and attack the summoner. ”
He also had this spell in his spell list, but he never remembered it. You must know that even a dark elf priestess, who often deals with demons, is often forced by the demon because of a mistake in the ritual, and then torn apart and eaten by the demon. Therefore, anyone who wants to summon demons must first have the consciousness of feeding demons with their bodies.
"Rest assured, dear master. I'm not a demon worshipper, and that doesn't happen. By the way, we'll have to get to see the half-dragon man, and we'll be in trouble if she escapes. ”
Thinking that Faircrag's daughter was still being held in the dungeon, Shantil hurriedly put on her gear and ran out of the lair. Looking at her hurried back, Henry could only helplessly take out the key he found from Const and chase after her. You know, it's a magical prison, and if you don't have a key to break through with brute force, you can't get out.
When he arrived at the door of the cell, he saw the sorceress through the cage, grabbing the hand of a girl with long platinum blonde hair and asking questions, and the fanatical expression on her face embarrassed the other party.
Henry sighed slightly, walked over and pulled Shantil away, and then used the key to open the door to the cell. He bowed slightly at the girl and said, "I'm sorry, this subordinate of mine is very curious about the half-dragon man, she has no malicious intentions, but she is a little more curious. ”
"It's nothing, it's kind of very friendly to see what I look like when I am transformed. My name is Sheena, and thank you for your rescue. The girl replied with a smile on her face. Suddenly, she noticed that the dragon head Henry was carrying in his hand, although it was already a little blurry of flesh and blood, but it was still vaguely recognizable.
Sheena jerked over to take a closer look, her eyes widened and she exclaimed, "Oh my God! You've killed this horrible beast! No wonder I regained my senses, it was because it was dead. ”
"I guess Faircragg should be your father, right? Isn't he sad at all when he's dead? Shantil asked, confused. She couldn't imagine that a daughter would be indifferent to her father's death, even if the other party was the daughter of the evil Red Dragon.
Putting down the dragon head in her hand, Sheena shook her head resolutely. "He didn't deserve to be a father at all. Not only did the beast tarnish my memories of my mother, but it also forcibly captured me here and locked me up. ”
"So what are you going to do in the future? Know that a half-dragon will attract attention wherever he goes, especially if your bloodline comes from an evil red dragon. Henry asked tentatively.
Sheena smiled wryly and shook her head. "I don't know, maybe I went back to the mountains and lived a life without fighting, maybe I wandered around to find someone like me."
"Why don't you go on an adventure with us? Even if you are tired, there is a place to rest. Don't worry, I'm a mage and don't have any bad opinions about your bloodline. Henry finally revealed his true purpose. (To be continued......)
