Chapter 385 Treasures Move People's Hearts

"No, it's a good thing for me to find you this time." Hearing Ainz's words, Yaheng scratched his head and quickly explained.

"Is it possible for you to find me?" Ainz looked at Yaheng with an extremely suspicious look. This guy looked for him ten times, but he would cause trouble nine times. The last time, he would see himself tossing him. He was seriously injured and unconscious, with only one breath left.

"Of course there is." The back-axe boy patted his chest with excitement on his face, "This time it is."

"Let's talk about it, what a good thing." Ainz's expression remained unchanged, and he began to clean up the waste residue generated by the failure to refine the medicine.

"Muria, the newly appointed golden dragon ruler of our kingdom, you know?"

"Know."

"He ordered a competition called the Golden Dragon Cup. Anyone under the age of 30 can sign up and there are no other restrictions."

Yaheng excitedly described the information he saw on the announcement issued by the city owner, and said the news that all the contestants were divided into five different age groups to fight against each other.

"As long as you qualify for the competition, you can get a hundred gold coins as a reward."

"Yeah!" Ainz was unmoved. He casually refined a bottle of potion, which was more than the price.

"Don't think too much, this is just the beginning." Yaheng smiled, "As long as you win a game, the bonus will be doubled. The winner can choose gold coins or weapons and armor of equal value. Potions, metals, etc., these are said to be rare goods provided by the royal family."

"Potion?" Ainz's face showed an expression of emotion, and finally shook his head. He knew what his own strength was. He liked alchemy potions, but he didn't like fighting. So far, he didn't have much. Practical experience.

"Yaheng, you know, although I have the strength of the fifth rank of silver, but I am not good at fighting. If you drag any adventurer on the street, you will kill more monsters than me."

"The monsters you used to test the potion killed, I can't compare to you in ten." Yaheng muttered.

"Stop talking nonsense, this kind of competition is good, but it has nothing to do with me, so I won't participate."

"I said that it is a competition that all geniuses can participate in. Naturally, you can also participate. If you are good at alchemy and making potions, then you can participate in the competition between pharmacists. If you win, you will still have rich rewards."

"A game between pharmacists?"

"right,

You guys are different from those of us who can only fight. Archduke Morea rewards you much better than us. As long as you qualify for the competition, you will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins, and every time you win, the same The bonus is doubled.

If you don't want gold coins to choose treasures, the treasures you can choose are different from ours. The royal family owns various formulas of medicines, finished medicines, and some rare alchemy materials. Take your pick. "

Saying that, Yaheng's face showed a look of envy, "I also saw something like the blood of the red dragon in the list of winners of your pharmacist competition, tsk, Duke Morea is really willing."

"The Grand Duke is a golden dragon, with the backing of an ancient dragon, and the blood of a red dragon in his hand is nothing at all." Ainz, who already had an expression of change on his face, asked uncertainly, "How did you qualify for the competition? "

"In my case, you only need to defeat ten people of the same age group in a row to qualify. As for you, you can refine a bottle of silver-level potion."

"How to sign up?" Ainz asked, with a hint of urgency in his tone after hearing such a "simple" sign up request.

"Hey, don't worry, you need to prepare first, there are still ten days before you can sign up. If the competition is held, it will be even later."

...

The fact that Morea is going to hold a competition has spread throughout the kingdom in just one day through the perfect teleportation formation system of the Rockman Kingdom, letting more and more people know the news.

At this time, almost everyone in the kingdom was discussing this matter, from nobles to commoners, making this competition, which had not even started to register, become quite popular and became a hot news.

Announcement of the competition system, competition location, and promotion method is nothing. What really made this competition popular is that Morea also announced the winner's reward list.

Weapons, armor, high-level combat skills, spell models, esoteric breathing methods, meditation methods, alchemy potion formulas, etc., almost everything can be found on it, and even geniuses with adventures will be moved by these rewards.

And if you want to get these, you have to participate in the competition, keep winning, the more you win, the more generous the rewards you get. The strong will get everything he wants in this game.

"I have prepared such a generous reward. You guys who make trouble for me everywhere are absolutely irresistible." Morea, who received feedback from various places through the secret agency, showed a smile in his face, "Geniuses. , obediently register all your information and participate in the competition! Then swallow the fragrant bait I prepared for you."

But within two days, he was presiding over the preparations for the talent competition, and Morea, who was about to start the registration preparation, received an expected news.

The former king of the Rockman Kingdom, Belladine, was on the way to play with her daughter. The night before yesterday, she quietly told Remilia a story. After comforting the little princess to fall asleep, she died quietly.

When Morea, who was very busy, received the summons, she was stunned for a while, and then she no longer had the heart to deal with the affairs. After handing the matter over to Mia, she brought a team of storm giants to meet Bei. Radeon's remains.

"Farewell!" Riding on a carriage drawn by eight celestial war horses, Moreya's face was a little heavy. Since his birth, for the first time, he experienced the kind of sadness, regret, and a little less after the death of a friend. What an empty feeling.

He still remembered that just after his ruling ceremony was over, Belladine couldn't wait to dress up as a wealthy businessman, and take his daughter to start a journey, traveling around the country.

Morea knew at that time that his time was running out, Belladine's soul had long been eroded by the curse, and his death was a broken soul, which was worse than the death of a mortal.

"Life is really fragile." Morea recalled the scene when he was just called to the Rockman Kingdom. Belladine at that time wanted to control the kingship faster, but taught him day and night. Own.

"Go in peace, I will clean up all the hidden dangers of the Rockman Kingdom, and then return the kingship to Remilia, making her a qualified king."
