The horseshoe beats a monotonous drum on the ground, and the accompaniment of old wheels makes the melody even more jerky and boring. The repetitive, seemingly endless, melody is played over and over again in the wind filled with dust and the smell of wheat fields. The navy-blue-haired boy steered two old horses to avoid the rocks and potholes in the road, and the bumps of the four-wheeled carriage were low in his hands, making it difficult to feel that this was a grandfather wagon that was more than forty years old.

"Your ability to learn is truly admirable. ”

Witnessing the whole process of the hour and a half when Li Lin learned to train a horse and drive, all that came out of Alberlich's mouth at this moment was some clichéd flattery. Regarding words such as compliments, Li Lin himself smiled noncommittally. It was Niedhogg's apparently unkind glance that made Albelig's heart beat from time to time. The dwarf couldn't help but regret a little that he actually stole the limelight of the black dragon in such a big show of loyalty as a sycophant, he didn't feel that his life was too long, whether it was dragon breath or sharp-toothed gods, the dwarf didn't want to have fatal contact with it.

While flattery accounts for a significant portion of the discourse, the actual part of the statement is full of facts that are difficult for others to accept. Alberich, at least, was certain that no one of any race in the circle he knew and came into contact with had the ability to quickly grasp the essence and use it skillfully across the disciplines of smelting, drawing, manufacturing, negotiating business, and driving. This incredible ability brings the dwarf not only shock and shock, but also thinking and calculating. Even if he couldn't choose to take sides immediately, it prompted him to start falling into unease and contradiction after Li Lin made the astonishing declaration of [Change the World].

It was Li Lin who had shown amazing talent and ability in various fields, and if there had been a different person, Alberich would not have to struggle between [reporting to the church] and [obtaining the greater good], after all, the answer was too clear and unambiguous. Alberich may not have had much to accomplish in his business so far, but the dwarf was not at all ambiguous when it came to valuing things. Whether it is an ore or a gemstone blank, the small eyes that can barely see the gaps and the fat fingers like the roots of plants can divide the corresponding grade and value, and then the little head will quickly estimate the most suitable price for the sale, which has always been very accurate and has not gone wrong.

But this time, it is necessary to weigh the speculation, and the two ends of the scale are placed in the glorious future and his small life. Of course, the dwarf longs for a bright future and countless riches, but whether this prospect that is still vague for the time being is worth the risk of being burned at the stake of the church, he needs to think carefully. As for going to church and receiving a bounty—between that amount and the horrific sight of Nidhogg's head being bitten by Nidhogg, the latter is clearly more convincing.

"When we get to the elven territory, are we just observing?"

Ignoring the worried dwarf, the curious baby's face poked out from the back frame of the car, and Nidhogg whispered inquiring.

"What about your opinion?"

Li Lin, who didn't look back, returned the question to Nidhogg with a rhetorical question, and the afterglow no longer paid attention to the apprehension under Albelich's expression, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Give a helping hand to the elves who have been pinned by humans, and use the gestures and means of a savior to envelop the long-lived race with pointed ears, and make them a force under your command. ”

"Underestimate you, Nidhogg. ”

The slightly upturned arc seems to others to be as clear and warm as the sun shining through the clouds, and it can be called a model expression for complimenting others.

"I can't predict your superficiality and the lower limit of your IQ, and I believe that you can make judgments close to the horizon - I am stupid enough. ”...,

The standard praise expression threw a standard hurtful dagger, and the combination of mental attacks that was too classic made the black dragon unable to react for a while.

“...... Huh?"

"So far, no dragon slayer warrior has found you, not because of the factors of [the nest is hidden enough] and [acting low-key], but the biggest reason is that the black dragon named Nidhogg is too stupid and superficial, and its nameless Cheng dù and low IQ are barely equivalent to algae, and the cost performance of this kind of hunting has reached the point where even children who catch slugs feel disgusted - thank you, Xunlong. You have made me understand this deeply. ”

Under the attack of Cheng Dù's poisonous tongue that far exceeded the boundary of [explicit], Nidhogg clutched his chest tightly, shrunk up with a painful expression, and the air around him became dark and heavy.

"The way of life, the distribution, the customs, the population, the social organization of the elves—all the most basic information is only a general concept and is uncertain about its correctness, and there is no more detailed information about it. Regardless of whether or not you can play the role of a savior, in fact, we don't even know if the other person is worthy of me to play the savior? ”

"How could there be such a suspicious illness? And it's Yan zhòng to the point where Cheng dù is as simple and brainless as algae!!!"

"Oh, do you notice it? It's unbelievable, it's a miracle. ”

"Wait a minute, if you talk about miracles. Isn't that all but me aware of this?!Is it really that Yan zhòng has come to this point?!My youth! I haven't roared at the sun!!!!

The black dragon rolling in the thick haze with his head in his arms, and the boy wielding a poisonous blade in an elegant posture - this is the combination that claims to change the world, and it seems that they are enjoying it......

At the bottom of this magical combination, Albelich began to feel that the position of his brain began to swell and ache inexplicably.

"But leave aside the overly idealistic parts. This admonition is not completely unreasonable, and if the conditions are met, and with the appropriate time, the possibility of realizing the envisaged situation can be fully saved. ”

"Huh......?"

Stopping his strange whirling behavior, Nidhogg turned his face to a smile that seemed to be completely insulated from any unclean dirt, and Albelich gave him a curious glance.

"Let a group of elves or something in the long life to come, and the qiē emotion and joy they feel, as well as the success of qiē, all come down to gratitude to me. It may be a good idea to give thanks for the safe morning, to thank friends during the day, and to give thanks for the satisfaction of the meal before dinner. ”

The black dragon and the dwarf are stuck in a crash mode where they can't think and react. The original mention can still be summed up as a well-calculated act of kindness, and it is a fraud of a bad nature to subvert the image at once...... This kind of speechless subversion finally makes them recall that there is a dark part of their own superior's personality that can be said to be strong or black.

This man may be able to rule the world.

The mind that began to operate by inertia led the two listeners to a vague conclusion, and then from that conclusion a glimpse of a terrible future that might arise.

Cruelly dominating all beings, mercilessly trampling on the soles of their feet and ravaging them, while the adult stared down on the severing beings under his feet......

-- What a hell of a ghost.

"It's childish to be satisfied. Moreover, the cost of this tyrant and the cost of domination is too high, and the benefits are too low. Except for the incompetent who have their heads stuffed with sperm and maggots, they will yearn for that kind of low-level fantasy. ”...,

"And what are you going to do?"

"Stupid question, Nidhogg. For the time being, our understanding of the world is not even preliminary. It would seem ridiculous to talk about any goal under such a premise. Well...... Just like Mr. Robber, who has been following us for a long time, he has unrealistic dreams and goes to death. ”

"Do you want me to dispose of it?"

Click――

Before Albery's eyes, the arm-thick strip of the frame of the carriage that had followed him for decades had been bitten into a shattering notch by the sharp teeth of the beast, and the innocent amber pupils of a few seconds ago were emitting a glow of hunger and excitement.

"Hey, don't get too excited. This carriage won't stand up to you. There are already guests waiting for us in front of us, and contact is expected within 15 minutes. When the time comes, you can vent as you want. ”

Poor fellow -

At the moment when Li Lin made the death sentence in words, Albelich silently gave a sigh that could be used as an epitaph for some people to the robbers who did not know their names or appearances.

A giant tree looming in the middle of the road was already visible on the horizon, and Nidhogg's hair began to stand on end
