Chapter 265 Chapter 118 The Boy Who Trained the Dragon
Chapter 265 Chapter 118. The boy who trained the dragon
"Breeze City."
An unexpected answer emerged from the broken mirror, and Annan realized that this might be another "secret" misunderstanding - follow the clues to Breeze City, and there is a high probability that you will find a resident named Liliana Lore.
We have to add the prefixes of "the most beautiful", "the most handsome" and "cursed by the God of Beauty", but a magic mirror that was thrown away by Gemma and repaired by the orcs is an artifact... Annan would rather believe that Joan is the Tatooine Empire princess.
Even when Annan took the magic mirror to the blue dragon's lair, the blue dragon Ilimayas raised her dragon eyes and stared at Annan lazily as she introduced the properties of the magic mirror.
"...You can ask the artifact one question every day. Can I exchange it for your apocalypse prediction?"
"One hundred thousand gold coins."
Ilimayas swung her dragon tail and swept away a piece of gold coins, exposing the bare rock. The competent ghost drifted over to pick up the gold coins and cover the Gilded Mountain again.
"...How much will it cost if I just buy the apocalypse forecast?"
"One hundred thousand gold coins."
Well, the purchase price of Blue Dragon is zero.
Annan casually threw the magic mirror into the lord's mansion, and would talk about it later when he thought of it.
The girl in the study was still sleeping. Annan temporarily summoned the caravan leader and apprentice in the living room to ask about the origin of the unknown girl.
The leader of the caravan said that the girl was brought by "Rick who never gives up". She insisted on coming to Xingyue Bay. There was nothing special on the way... except for watching "The Fall of the Mage Tower" and "Betal's Redemption" dozens of times. ", and a few days later "The Law Breaks the Sky".
Annan then looked at the necklace and magic ring that the girl used as fare. The latter could cast the magic "magic text" three times a day.
"This Celtic sapphire necklace comes from the southern mountains of the kingdom." Ingrid said.
"She's from the South?"
"At least it's south of us."
People in the north are tired of seeing ice and snow, so they are not very interested in gems like ice. If you get them from the south, they are worth at least hundreds of gold coins.
"Are you from Fengrao City?"
Annan asked the caravan leader with a flattering smile.
"My father is from Fengrao City, and my mother is half from Breeze City, so I am also a quarter from Breeze City." The businessman used his expertise in mathematics to get close to Annan.
"what's your name?"
The leader of the caravan curried favor with Annan, and Annan also needed a caravan.
"Ciel Vera, my lord!"
"How is the situation in Fenghuo City now?"
Charles Vera's answer was not much different from what West said in his letter. West was doing well in Fenghuo City. He bought a piece of land in the commercial street in Annan's name and built a mansion there that integrated a theater, a tavern, and shops. In his letter a few days ago, he also hoped that Annan would let the Lion The mercenary group sent some people over.
Just because of the distance and lack of media, magic newspapers in areas other than Breeze City have just sold the few issues in Snow Mountain Fortress, and the quantity is not large.
Annan turned a blind eye and ignored Charles Vera's behavior of selling pirated magic stones, and asked him: "Are you interested in becoming a dealer of "Xingyue Bay News"?"
"Really...really!" Charles Vera seemed to have been hit by a pile of Jinnar.
So Annan got back the necklace and magic ring without spending a penny - it's not quite accurate to say that. Annan also asked him and Ingrid to get a gold nard to use to "introduce professionals to Xingyue Bay" credibility.
As soon as they left the Lord's Mansion, Abby came down from the second floor: "Master Annan, the girl is awake."
Annan came to the study corridor with the necklace and ring, and Evelin's chanting voice came from behind the door:
"In the class of Xingyue Bay School, Teacher Della asked the students: 'Excuse me, in the year 999 of the Saint Laurent Calendar, what is the best-selling product in the human kingdom?' A little elf boy answered enthusiastically, raised his hand and said: 'Me, me, me !', Della saw this and said: 'That's right, are there any other students who want to answer?'"
Pushing open the door, the girl stood in front of the desk and stared at the magic newspaper curiously.
"I'm sorry, I've never seen this kind of magic item..." The girl bowed slightly to perform noble etiquette, "I was too tired before, so I fell asleep when I came here."
"It doesn't matter, the magic newspaper is just for reading."
"Magic newspaper, is it called this?" The girl noticed the necklace and ring in Annan's hand and said, "I exchanged these for them."
"I've already paid them." Annan put the girl's things on the table, "What's your hurry to come to Xingyue Bay?"
"Well, the teacher asked me to come to you and said you would protect me."
"shelter?"
…
"...Asimov was the teacher of the girl and the second prince. After the second prince died in the palace, the eldest prince sent the guards to arrest them. Asimov said that all disasters were caused by that letter, and it was my responsibility to protect her, So the girl was teleported to the vicinity of Fenghuo City."
In the evening, Annan sat in the study and Olmedo, opposite the portal, recounted what happened.
"I know him, the most low-key epic mage in the kingdom, the librarian of the Golden Library..." Olmedo said thoughtfully, "So the royal family knew that a rat clan was heading north, but it still remained indifferent?"
"Did they underestimate the enemy?"
"It's not that simple... I'll confirm the girl's identity first."
"Her name is Lilith."
"good."
After removing the portal, Annan leaned back in his seat, looking out the window at the sunset and meditating.
According to the timeline, the Rat Man intelligence letter was delivered to the second prince. The second prince went to the palace to warn the nobles - it was normal up to this point, but then it took a turn for the worse: the second prince was framed for rebellion and died because of "fear of crime". The epic wizard Asimov was implicated. Then the royal family showed no urgency about the approach of the Skaven clan, and only sent the Holy Grail Knights to the south a month later...
A sigh blends into the sunset.
Annan hated such complicated plots. It has nothing to do with the shadow of the past being played around and used as a chess piece by several parties. Instead, resources are wasted on internal consumption... which is meaningless.
Being closed can make people depressed, so Annan ran to the beach, found Leila's wooden boat, and waved to her to dock for dinner.
"Wait a minute! The fish is about to take the bait!"
Leila's shout floated in the sea breeze. Annan had no choice but to take in the white dragon first. When he came to the beach where the dragons were playing, he unexpectedly saw a thin figure standing in front of the rolling and fighting dragons.
"Aren't you afraid of them?"
Annan came to the boy and startled him.
"I...I seem to be able to understand their voices." The boy recognized Annan, but was so reserved that he didn't know how to face him.
"Which one is it?"
Annan's gentleness made the boy quickly let go of his nervousness. Like a child showing off a toy, he couldn't wait to say: "It's like they are talking! The white dragon is saying that the sea fish is delicious, and the other one is complaining that it has fish bones stuck in its throat. , and that one..."
The boy's ill-fitting linen clothes were covered with patches. He must have been one of the last residents from Louis City.
After Sauron, will there be a second spellcaster in Xingyue Bay?
