Chapter 377 The Price of Dragon Scales
High in the sky, as the two talked, the tense atmosphere eased, and Bellora formally proposed his request - dragon scales.
At the same time, he also made a promise.
As long as Ronin is willing to give dragon scales, he can make the other party meet his requirements.
Although Bellora only said what he could do, for such a great magician, what is beyond his ability?
This promise is quite weighty!
Ronin can make many requests, such as obtaining high-level magic, fighting skills, or asking for some magic crystals, asking the other party to save him several times in his time of crisis, etc.
Even if there are any major changes in the future, he can still let the other party support him.
Thinking of this, Ronin patted the dragon's body, "Carlos, what do you think?"
The dragon snorted very unhappy, and white mist sprayed out of its two huge nostrils.
In Bellora's eyes, it was obvious that the dragon was very unwilling and angry.
But in Ronin's mind, Carlos said timidly: "Master, can I refuse?"
Last time, in order to try to make a rage potion for Elron, it reluctantly let out some blood.
Although it was just a small cut, Elron had time to stop the wound with blood, but it still felt distressed for a long time.
Ronin laughed and said with his soul: "Don't worry, I won't agree easily. Even if I really want to give it, I have to let him compensate you."
That still means to give it.
Carlos let out a low hum and glared at Bellora fiercely.
The murderous intent flashed in its cold eyes, which made the great mage feel a hint of coldness.
"Mr. Dragon seems unwilling?"
Bellora has done sporadic research on dragons and knows that this creature is very arrogant.
If it weren't for Ronin's restraint, I'm afraid he would give the other person a breath of fire dragon breath when he heard someone wanted its dragon scales.
"It really doesn't want to."
Ronin smiled and said, "After all, it is very painful to tear off its scales, and it hurts its spirit."
Belora frowned.
Since he accidentally got the secret medicine formula, he has tried to use many materials to replace dragon scales.
For example, the griffins and dragon eagles that are said to have dragon blood, and high-level crocodiles, pythons, sea fish, etc. with hard scales, but the effect is greatly reduced.
Dragon scales are very necessary for him.
There was no way to find a dragon before, but now there is a dragon in front of him, and he must find a way to get a few pieces.
But he didn't want to force it.
The young man in front of him is the descendant of an acquaintance, and he can't bring himself to rob him.
As for killing people for treasures, this is not Bellora's style.
"It is said that dragons like shiny things. You know my territory. There is nothing else, but there are a lot of magic crystals."
Berola said: "Please help me persuade Mr. Carlos. As long as he is willing, I am willing to buy it at the price of 300 fully-conditioned magic crystals per scale."
A fully-conditioned magic crystal, even if calculated at 100 gold coins per scale, is 30,000 gold coins per dragon scale.
This price is not low, but it is not high either, because dragons are rare.
"Three hundred seems a little less, right?"
When Berola heard this, he knew there was a chance, and thought to himself that the young man in front of him was a money-grubber.
"You don't know, although there are magic crystal veins in my territory, this thing is not something that ordinary people can mine. The annual output is not only limited, but the fully-conditioned magic crystals can only produce about 3,000 at most."
He explained: "I consume part of these magic crystals, and sell part of them to others. There are not many left."
Roning suddenly realized that he thought the magic crystals were all fully-conditioned when they were mined.
From this point of view, it seems difficult to get the other party to take out more magic crystals.
However, if there are no magic crystals, they can be supplemented from other aspects.
"It is difficult to tear the dragon scales from the dragon, but you may not know that the dragon scales of the dragon will fall off naturally."
Ronin said: "It just so happens that I have some in my hand."
Carlos was a little confused. When did it fall off the dragon scales?
But thinking carefully, it did drop more than a hundred dragon scales when it was upgraded. Ronin picked them up and wanted to make a set of dragon scale armor.
Bellora's eyes lit up, "Do dragons also shed hair?"
He coughed, as if he felt that it was a bit rude to say this, and immediately changed the topic and asked: "How many pieces do you have?"
Ronin had 136 pieces in his hand.
These dragon scales should keep 108 pieces to cast dragon scale armor, and the remaining 28 pieces can be sold.
But he also needs to keep some, maybe Elron will need dragon scales as materials in the future.
"About twenty pieces."
Ronin said straightforwardly: "If Mr. Bellola needs it, you can use 500,000 gold coins to buy 15 of them, and 1,500 magic crystals for the rest."
The reason why he mentioned 500,000 gold coins was mainly because of the requirements of the last level of the achievement of good fortune.
As long as he can complete this achievement, he can break through to the Silver Moon level, and even Rydar can become the Sun.
Seeing that Ronin agreed, Bellola's mood suddenly improved.
Twenty dragon scales are enough for him to try and make mistakes.
As long as the magic potion is developed, he may be one step closer to the legend.
But then, he was in trouble again.
Whether it is gold coins or magic crystals, the Silva family does not seem to have that much inventory.
This is like asking a rich man to take out 500 million in cash instantly, which is also a certain difficulty.
"Five hundred thousand gold coins, I can get it together within a few months."
Bellola pondered and said: "But 1500 magic crystals are not easy to get. On the one hand, the inventory is not enough, and on the other hand, my magic research also requires a lot of consumption. Do you think you can change it for something else?"
"Of course, but I want to see what you have first."
Ronin did not forget the purpose of his visit to Crystal City this time.
Magic, fighting skills, the spring water of the Magic Spirit Spring, star grass, etc., are all what he wants to get.
"Hahaha, then we don't stay in the sky all the time. Let's go to Crystal Castle."
In order to prevent Ronin from being nervous, he comforted:
"I will notify you of your arrival in Crystal City first, and let Franz wait for your arrival, so you don't have to worry about me harming you."
After notifying like this, if he attacks Ronin again, it would be a slap in the face.
Although Bellola is less interested in worldly things, the Silva family is the master of this land after all, and they still need to save face.
Watching the other party leave quickly, Roning relaxed.
It was purely accidental that he met Bellola this time, but the result was not bad.
Especially the 500,000 gold coins. He thought he would have to wait until the trade started to make enough at one time, but he didn't expect that the dragon scales in the storage ring would work.
"Let's go, let's follow."
Carlos flapped his wings with a roar. This time he didn't pull the dragon scales from it, and he was in a very good mood.
Crystal Castle.
After Bellola came back, he immediately sent someone to send Franz.
In fact, at Bellola's age, the family relationship with the younger generation has become a little weak.
Franz is okay, he has good talent, so he can meet Bellola a few times and accept the latter's guidance.
Other great-granddaughters, and even younger generations, can only see Bellola once a year at the annual celebration or some important festivals.
"Great grandfather!"
Franz bowed respectfully, not daring to be careless at all, "What do you want me to do?"
Belora smiled and looked very kind, "Do you know Ronin?"
Uh...
Franz didn't expect it to be such a question.
He was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"I met Ronin at the martial arts competition in the capital last year. He was the champion of the martial arts competition."
Belora nodded, "How old is this Ronin?"
"About eighteen or nineteen years old?"
Hearing this, Belora couldn't help but take a breath and said in shock: "Only eighteen or nineteen years old?"
He thought Ronin was at least in his twenties.
"What's wrong?"
Franz was puzzled, why was his great grandfather so shocked by Ronin's age?
The next sentence from the other party directly made him brainstorm.
"Eighteen or nineteen-year-old meteor knight and great magician, this Ronin has the potential to be an emperor!"
The emperor he mentioned refers to the first emperor of the Orlant Empire, who swept and unified the entire continent.
"Impossible!"
Franz's eyes widened, "During the martial arts competition, he was only a silver knight?"
"Oh?"
Berola was a little surprised, but soon guessed that Roning must have hidden his strength.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Don't tell anyone about Roning's strength. Besides, he will come to Crystal Castle soon, so you can receive him on my behalf."
Franz felt a little dizzy.
At the age of 23, it was not easy for him to cultivate both magic and martial arts to the level of bronze knight and great magician. In the eyes of others, this was still a gifted talent.
But Roning, who was 18 or 19 years old, was he really already at level 7 in both professions?
"No, I'll have to ask him later!" (End of this chapter)
