Chapter 1034 Odklas
The man's hair was like red silk, with flames dancing on it.
His robe was black, but there were bright red dark patterns on the edges. These patterns were irregular and looked like magma surging under the dark soil.
Every part of his body showed the "will of fire", including the breath emanating from his body, which also proved his identity, Odklas!
Odklas's human form, although his hair color and robes were full of blazing flames, his face was cold and calm, without any fire.
His face was pale and his expression was indifferent.
His pupils were the same as Fafnir's, one was as red as a flame, and the other was an ice blue representing frost.
Odklas's aura should obviously be a violent flame, but Angel could always catch the breath of ice from him inadvertently.
Could it be that he, like Sinafa, not only had the attribute of fire, but also concealed a contradictory attribute of frost?
Another strange thing is that Odkras, a fire dragon, does not live next to a lava volcano, but lives in an ice valley that has not melted for thousands of years. Why is that?
Is it because of the hidden frost familiarity in him, or... for it?
Angel looked at the white jade-like frost dragon on the mural.
Odkras was also looking at the mural at this time. He sat on the ice crystal chair under the mural, silently looking at Bina Jones in the mural, with an indelible longing in his eyes.
Today's Odkras does not look like a powerful abyss dragon at all, but like a devout believer who is looking at the statue in the church.
Angel moved, and he walked towards Odkras carefully.
He wanted to change the stalemate. First of all, he needed a variable. Odkras looked cold and completely ignored Angel's existence. Since the mountain doesn't come to me, then he will go to the mountain.
Angel's pace was very slow. When he approached Odkras, he was also thinking about the information about Odkras.
In Fafnir's mouth, Odkras was as warm as a flame. But as far as what we have seen so far is concerned, Fafnir's information should have expired. Although there were flames all around him, none of these flames were emitting heat.
In the wizarding world, Odkras is the lord of the Ice Valley with a weird personality.
Saying that he has a weird personality does not mean that Odkras is cruel. It can be seen from the fact that Sinafa fled to the Ice Valley to avoid the pursuit of demons.
If Odkras is really bloodthirsty and cruel to humans, he will never allow Sinafa to break into his territory.
From this point of view, Odkras is not bloodthirsty. The reason why he is said to have a weird temper is actually referring to the curse in the Ice Valley. Although he does not take the initiative to kill people, he will be cursed as soon as he enters the Ice Valley. Being cursed in the abyss is actually no different from death.
Fafnir's information is out of date, but the information from the wizarding world is not necessarily true.
In Angel's own eyes, Odkrass looked neither as warm as Fafnir said, nor as irritable and unstable as the rumors outside. His expression was arrogant and indifferent, with a sense of detachment that he disdained everything. The only things that could cause him to react were those related to Bina Jones.
Angel approached Odkrass, only ten meters away.
In the rows of seats, they were only separated by the aisle in the center of the hall.
Angel deliberately pressed his footsteps, but Odkrass still did not look at Angel.
It was not until Angel "coughed" that Odkrass reluctantly gave Angel a few seconds of sight.
"You can leave." Odkrass's spiritual thoughts also carried the same cold aura as his reality.
As soon as Odkrass closed his voice, there was a loud bang behind him, the main door of the hall was opened, and a strong wind rushed in.
A faint flame also appeared around Angel.
This layer of flame can resist the curse of the ice valley. It is Odkras's reward for Angel's previous care for Bina Jons' dragon scales. However, he will not say it.
Although Angel did not know what the flames around him were, it did not prevent him from understanding the current situation.
Odkras was obviously "sending guests away".
But his goal has not been completed, and how to get rid of Toby's bad luck is still an unknown.
Angel saw that Odkras seemed to be about to fall into the state of the wall-facer again. He did not dare to waste any time. He did not greet or be modest, but directly spoke out his purpose.
His straightforwardness made it difficult for Odkras to pay attention and focus on the human beings he had never cared about before.
The first time he saw Angel, he found the aura of disaster on him, but Odkras was too lazy to point it out and had no interest in exploring it.
Now that Angel took the initiative to tell the story and pointed out that it was related to the seabird in his arms, Odkras kept a look.
It was also this look that made Odkras sense the familiar breath on Toby.
Is this the breath of "it"?
Odkras's mood rarely fluctuated except for Bina Jones. The residual breath on Toby instantly pulled his memory back a thousand years ago.
The last time he met the old guy was a thousand years ago, outside a phase gate in the bottomless abyss of the Face of Gluttony.
According to the old guy, it was going to try to break the taboo, and then it left the Gluttony Face, but it was unknown where it was going.
After that, Odkras never heard of it again, so he thought it died on the way to the taboo. In this long time, there was a moment when Odkras recalled this old friend with emotion.
Now that he sensed the familiar breath on Toby, Odkras couldn't help but show a look of surprise. His eyebrows were slightly raised by 1 mm.
However, Odkras had a higher vision than Fafnir.
Fafnir thought Toby was the layout of the old guy, but Odkras only took a look and found the clue: although there was the breath of the old guy, this seabird was cleaner than a piece of white paper, without the mark of the old guy at all.
Even the pheromones were completely different from those of the old guy.
And... Odkras glanced at the pink lace pajamas on Toby.
Even if the old guy was looking for a chess piece, he would not look for a bird with such a weird aesthetic.
Since Toby is very likely not the old guy's layout, where did it come from?
Odkras is no stranger to human wizards. He even lived with a human who called himself "Feng" in the Ice Valley for several years. This ice crystal palace was Feng's work. Later, with Feng's help, he painted the mural that he had been thinking about.
Because of this, he and "Feng" made an agreement that as long as humans did not provoke him, he would not take the initiative to kill humans.
During the days with Feng, Odkras also understood the wizard system. He knew that one of the three major structures of wizards was called the blood side. They could accommodate the blood of other creatures in themselves, take away their abilities, and integrate them into themselves.
This bird, perhaps so, has integrated part of the old guy's blood?
However, with such a strong breath, it seems that there are still a lot of blood integrated. But, if there are really a lot, why is the strength so weak? Is it sealed?
Odkras's mind turned several times, but there was still no expression on his face.
These memories, at most, made him feel nostalgic, but it was difficult to stir his emotions.
...
After Angel finished speaking his purpose in one breath, he looked at Odklas nervously.
What is Odklas's personality like? There is no conclusion yet.
Whether his words would cause the other party to be disgusted, this is also what made Angel uneasy.
Odklas didn't care about Angel's fluctuating emotions, but seeing that the bird and the old guy had some fate, he said lightly.
"If you can bring back a complete fire stone, I can remove the curse for it."
It seems that he said this lightly, but in fact, behind this short sentence, there are a lot of thoughts. Odklas has lived in the Ice Valley all year round. The flame energy in his body can hardly be replenished. Instead, the coldness enters his body and turns into ice flames, which is harmful to it. Although it can be ignored for his current physical body, as he stays in the Ice Valley for a long time, the accumulated damage is enough to damage his strength.
The level of the disaster curse is extremely high. If his strength cannot be restored to its peak, he cannot remove the disaster curse.
There are many ways to restore his strength, such as leaving the ice valley and staying in the volcano for a few years, and the accumulated cold in his body will naturally disappear. But now Bina Jones is still sleeping here, and he can't leave for a moment.
So, he chose to tell Angel other methods.
There are many other methods, such as bringing some fire treasures, which may also restore his strength. However, he doesn't think that these things can be used to ask him to eliminate the disaster.
"Feng" once told him that there is a default rule among wizards, called equal exchange. What you get, you have to pay. Of course, the reference object of this law of equal exchange must be "the powerful party". For example, buying an orange with a copper coin is an equal exchange, but this is the business rule of the economic society. In the wizard world, there is also a supply and demand relationship and the law of class increase.
The demand side is naturally weaker than the supply side. The strong dominate the amount of this equal transaction.
The strong man felt that it was not fair to exchange a copper coin for an orange. To him, fairness was to exchange a copper coin for an orchard full of oranges.
After knowing this exchange rule, Odklas felt that it was in his own interest. If Angel could come up with something that even he was tempted by, he would not mind taking time out to help Toby get rid of the disaster.
And the Fire Stone, the legendary secret treasure of the devil, was of great use to him.
Not only could it restore his strength, but it could also play an incomparable role in his strength.
So, he said this. Although, he did not think that the human in front of him, who was not much stronger than a baby, could get the Fire Stone.
As for the twists and turns behind this sentence, he was too lazy to explain, and there was no need to explain.
