Chapter 344 Herbal Baked Eggs (Two Chapters in One)
At this time, Ryan had just transformed the forked sword in his hand back to the style of an ordinary two-handed sword.
Just now, he used his top-level secret technique ‘Shadow Step’ with all his strength, and appeared in front of the two-headed lava dog at the tail of the caravan at lightning speed. The sword in his hand suddenly forked, and flashed two silver lights, and then pierced directly into the opponent's two heads.
The whole set of actions was so fast that it did not exceed 0.3 seconds.
But it contained ‘Shadow Step’, ‘Metal Transfiguration’, ‘Sharpness’, and the forked sword that imitated the ‘Armor Breaking Strike’ of the lance.
Therefore, it achieved this jaw-dropping effect.
A two-headed lava dog with a strength comparable to that of a second-level liquefied wizard only felt a flash in front of his eyes, and before he could react, he was killed by Ryan with one blow!
And behind the two-headed lava dog, the ordinary lava dogs were still standing there at this moment, a little confused about the situation.
"Roar!!!"
But the other two-headed lava dog that attacked from the left side of the caravan roared when it saw its partner being killed.
Although it felt that the human was very strong, at this moment. Rage has filled its head.
"Boom!!!"
As the flames on its huge body, which was comparable to that of a wild bull, surged, a circular shock wave blasted around, and several caravan guards who were too close were immediately bounced away. At the same time, while still in mid-air, the whole person was burning with flames!
"Ah! Ah!"
The screams sounded immediately! The whole caravan began to panic.
"Looking for death!"
The opponent's indiscriminate group attack made Ryan's eyes condense, leaving seven or eight afterimages along the way, and in an instant, he came to a few meters in front of the second two-headed lava dog.
"Chi!!"
But this time the opponent was well prepared. Facing the extremely fast attack of Ryan, the two-headed lava dog quickly opened its two bloody mouths and spit out two different fire talents.
One dog head spewed out a long fire snake, and the other dog head blasted out a giant fireball that was a circle larger than a basin.
The fire snake and the fireball attacked Ryan at such a fast speed that they arrived in the blink of an eye!
"Be careful! Get out of the way!" Melita shouted and reminded immediately.
Before, the white-robed witch Melita did not see how Ryan killed the first two-headed lava dog.
Because her attention at that time was focused on the second two-headed lava dog on the left.
But this time, she saw it very clearly.
No, it should be said that although it was still not very clear, she could only see a series of afterimages of Ryan, but she could see Ryan's super fast speed clearly.
But Ryan didn't slow down at all, still pulling out a white straight line, sprinting towards the opponent without any intention of dodging.
In Melita's horrified eyes.
Three dark silver kite-shaped shields suddenly formed on Ryan's body, and quickly overlapped and hit him in front.
At the same time, the fireball and the fire snake also hit Ryan.
"Boom! Boom!"
The giant fireball and the fire snake instantly shattered two kite-shaped shields, but when it came to the third one, it seemed that there was not enough power left. Although it still broke the shield, the speed was much slower.
The remaining flames were crushed by a silver big hand!
In an instant, Ryan had come to the front of the two-headed lava dog several meters.
"Swish!"
At that moment, two identical figures of Ryan appeared, but one was to the left and the other was to the right. Almost at the same time, two silver arcs flashed from the two necks of the two-headed lava dog.
Melita blinked her eyes, and the next second, she found Ryan standing in front of the two-headed lava dog, and it seemed that he didn't move!
But soon, she knew that she was not dazzled just now.
"Plop! Plop!"
There were two consecutive sounds of heavy objects falling to the ground!
Everyone looked closely!
Wow! The two-headed lava dog has now become a headless lava dog. Dark red blood fountains are spurting out from its two necks. Its huge body, comparable to that of a wild bull, is shaking from side to side and lying down weakly.
The opponent is not a dragonborn, so Ryan will naturally not take a bath.
He shook the two-handed sword in his hand slightly, and the sword body returned to its original brightness.
The two groups of ordinary lava dogs that were originally planning to besiege saw that their leaders were killed, and they immediately fled in panic with their tails between their legs.
For this ordinary lava dog that poses no threat at all, Ryan naturally disdains to chase after it.
"What kind of strength is this!"
"Too powerful!" Melita murmured excitedly.
"Moreover, the opponent just cast a rare metal magic!"
Melita naturally saw the changes in the weapon in Ryan's hand, and the faint metal energy particle fluctuations when the silver light flashed.
You know, metal wizards are rarer than her ice wizards.
Suddenly, Melita thought of something. She looked at the blizzard element just summoned beside her and wanted to cry without tears!
"Oh my God! I wasted a precious ice and snow core!" She said with great pain.
A year of work was in vain!
This is the killer she treasured for herself.
And the male wizard who had retreated to the caravan guards and was ready to retreat at any time, at this moment, was also dumbfounded looking at the two-headed lava dog that fell in front of him.
He looked at the tall and burly figure again.
Instantly, the dirty thoughts in my mind vanished.
I want to be a good person!
At this time, the gray-white wizard robe on Ryan's body had been damaged, revealing a silver mithril carved plate armor.
The mysterious pattern and the shiny silver armor gave everyone a mysterious feeling.
Although Melita recognized the material of the other party's armor at the first time, it was actually mithril, and she was even more shocked!
"Not only is he strong, but he is also extremely rich!"
"And the other party also has an official background in the empire. If so, isn't it..."
Suddenly, Melita thought of something.
This time she received an emergency notice from the academy to summon combatants to return to Winterhold Academy and organize defense.
According to the content of the message, it was because a huge ancestor dragon named Corahus suddenly appeared in the North.
The other party, like other ancestor dragons, is violent by nature and has currently gathered a large number of followers, sweeping across the North.
Her mentor, who is also the dean of Winterhold Academy, was seriously injured in the battle with Corasius a few days ago.
After seeing Ryan's amazing melee ability, Melita couldn't help but have an idea.
If the wizards of the academy could have someone like Ryan who was extremely strong in close combat to resist in front when fighting the ancestor dragon, they only needed to keep casting witchcraft attacks in the back.
In that case, it should be easy to defeat the ancestor dragon, right?
After the fat man Yannis came to his senses, he walked quickly to Ryan with his fat body and said:
"Lord Ryan, this time it's all thanks to you. I would like to thank you on behalf of the Cameron Caravan. These gold coins..."
Yannis said, waving his hand, and a guard behind him came forward with a heavy wooden box.
"No need, it's a convenient thing, and I'm riding a flying mount this time, so it's not convenient to carry a box." Ryan refused with a smile.
For Ryan at present, unless the gold coins start at 10,000 gold coins, they may still have some meaning to him.
"You." Fatty Giannis seemed to be still hesitant.
"Go and treat the wounded quickly. It's better for us to hurry up and leave the Hammerfall Tunnel." Ryan stepped forward and patted Giannis on the shoulder and said.
"Okay, Lord Ryan!"
"Sir Ryan, please forgive me for being so presumptuous. I want to tell you something." After Giannis left, Melita, who had been thinking for a long time, stepped forward and said.
"Oh? Sir Melita, if you have anything to say, just say it directly." Ryan looked at the white-robed witch in front of him and said with a smile.
He didn't dislike Melita.
In the battle just now, Ryan saw clearly that the other party was also fighting hard. Although he didn't use it in the end, his character was evident.
Much better than those two guys.
"It's like this, I want to ask you for a favor, Lord Ryan."
"As a reward, I can provide you with a specific clue of the improved metal magic 'Cutting Net'."
After hearing the first half of Melita's words, Ryan was going to refuse. He came here to find Lagre and had no time or energy to help others too much.
However, when Ryan heard the five words 'Metal Magic', he raised his eyebrows.
Especially the name of this magic 'Cutting Net', it seems to be an offensive metal magic, which makes Ryan quite interested.
After all, the metal magic he now masters, even with the zero-level 'Sharpness', is only three, namely the innate magic 'Metal Transfiguration' and the defensive first-level magic 'Metal Barrier'.
If he can get a new offensive magic, it would be great.
However, Ryan looked around and said to Melita: "Melita, we can talk about what you need my help with, but not now, wait until we leave the Hammerfall Tunnel, okay?"
"That's great, of course." Melita was worried that Lord Ryan would refuse directly.
Now looking at the other party's appearance, he should be quite interested in the metal witchcraft he just mentioned.
The subsequent journey was much smoother. Although there were still lava snakes constantly emerging in the tunnel, they were all easily sent away by Ryan and became the food for Blood Feather.
When he reached the exit, Blood Feather's stomach was already a little swollen.
One hour later.
At the other end of the Hammerfall Tunnel, dozens of cars of the Cameron caravan were being counted and resting.
Melita, holding an amber long-necked bottle, walked to Ryan and Anna, and said with a smile:
"Lord Ryan, Miss Anna, this is the specialty of our Winterburg Academy, 'Goldenthorn Honey Tea', which has a refreshing taste and is refreshing. It is well received by wizards. Would you like to try it?"
Anna's beautiful eyes lit up. If it was an alcoholic beverage, she might not like it, but tea was different. Anna looked at Ryan with her beautiful eyes.
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Melita." Ryan responded with a smile.
Poisoning?
Ryan was not worried. Don't forget his enhanced poison resistance in Breaking Bad.
If it doesn't work, he can also transform into a dragon man and be directly immune to low-level poisons.
Of course, the most important thing is that after experiencing the battle, he didn't think that Melita in front of him had any motive to poison.
Melita poured a cup for Ryan and Anna respectively.
"Good tea!" Ryan tasted it carefully.
This tea with golden thorn grass tastes sweet, but it also has a refreshing feeling like beer, and it seems to have a slight effect of promoting mental strength. No wonder it is well received by wizards.
"It is really delicious. I like it very much, Your Excellency Melita." Anna took a sip and her beautiful eyes lit up.
"As long as the two adults like it."
"Uh, Melita, you can just call me Anna. As for Ryan, he is indeed an adult." Anna covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Is Lord Ryan from the Empire?"
Ryan shook his head helplessly at Anna's self-exposure.
He finally understood why Anna's aunt, Ms. Delanna, was particularly worried that Anna would be abducted. It was too naive.
"Your Excellency Melita, I do work in the Empire, but I may not be able to tell you the details."
"No wonder the Hammerfall garrison opened the gate for you alone. At that time, I had this guess." Melita said with a smile.
"By the way, Lord Melita, can you tell me in detail the task you want me to help with? I will continue on my way in a while."
"Of course, Lord Ryan." Melita nodded with a look of joy.
"It's like this. A primordial dragon appeared in the north, named." Melita introduced while observing Ryan's expression.
She saw a hint of surprise on Ryan's face, and immediately thought to herself, 'Finally, he was moved.'
In fact, Ryan was surprised that it was such a coincidence that the other party wanted to ask him for help to kill the primordial dragon named Colasius together.
You know, he originally planned to find out the strength of the primordial dragon after finding Lagre.
After all, he had to absorb new dragon genes to further improve the concentration of dragon blood.
This is related to his legendary profession, and its importance is self-evident.
"As for the reward, I just saw that you seem to be a metal wizard. And I happen to know the former residence of a deceased metal wizard in the North, a second-level liquefied wizard nicknamed 'Cutter'."
"According to reliable information, the other party died suddenly when he was impacting crystallization. Therefore, the other party's signature witchcraft, the 'Cutting Net' that he improved, should be preserved."
Hearing this, the smile on Ryan's face gradually faded.
He thought that Melita had the metal witchcraft 'Cutting Net' in her hands, but after all this time, she only knew a piece of news.
Moreover, knowing the location, the other party didn't go to get it, obviously there should be a problem here!
"I have a question."
"Melita, since this metal witchcraft is so rare and has been improved, it must be worth a lot of money, so why didn't you go to get it?" Ryan looked into Melita's eyes and said in a deep voice.
"That's because the other party's residence is in the Howling Fjord, the easternmost part of the Frost Tundra. I went there some time ago and found that the place had long been occupied by the Thick-shelled Lobster Tribe of the Fjord."
"The other party is numerous, and the thick shell has a high defense. It is difficult for me to reach the target location with my combat power. However, with your strength, these are not a problem."
"So, Lord Melita, I understand what you mean. You want me to help you head-on to resist a Proto-Dragon whose strength is between the peak of Legend and the epic level, and the reward is a specific clue of metal witchcraft, is that right?"
Hearing Ryan's words, Melita's pretty face immediately showed a blush.
At this time, Melita calmed down and thought about it, and realized that the transaction conditions she proposed were a bit too much.
"Lord Ryan, I'm really sorry, but it seems that this is the only thing I can show you and you like." Melita explained with a little embarrassment.
After all, the risk that Ryan has to take is greater than the gain.
"Lord Ryan, to show my sincerity, I am willing to accompany you to Howling Fjord."
"Of course, if you still find it unacceptable, I understand. Thank you again for your help in the Hammerfall Tunnel." Melita bowed slightly to Ryan and said.
"No, I agreed!" Ryan waved his hand and said.
"Huh?" Melita's beautiful eyes widened, staring at Ryan, and she was stunned for a moment.
He actually agreed?
But it's obviously not equal.
This.
For a moment, Melita couldn't figure out why.
However, she was naturally overjoyed when she heard the news. She immediately came back to her senses and thanked Ryan:
"Thank you, Lord Ryan! That's great!"
"By the way, Lord Ryan, Miss Anna, please allow me to make a simple campfire dinner for you two as a thank you." The delighted Melita took the initiative to say.
"Also, this is my homemade eggnog, you two can have a taste."
"Thank you, Ms. Melita." Ryan and Anna smiled at each other and nodded at Melita.
After all, no matter how hurried, dinner is always necessary.
As the bonfire slowly rose.
Melita skillfully took out some condiments and a small box containing a lot of herbs and more than a dozen egg-sized bird eggs.
"I didn't prepare too many raw materials today, so I can only make herbal baked eggs for you two."
A few minutes later, Ryan took a pancake from his previous life and ate it.
Not to mention, it tasted really good.
For a moment, Ryan couldn't help but think of something.
After I change my job to the legendary class ‘Dragon Vein Wizard’, maybe I can consider being a chef as my next job.
At least, I won’t treat my stomach badly.
But a portion of herbal baked eggs is naturally too little for Ryan’s appetite.
The head of the Cameron caravan, the fat man Yannis, can be seen from his body shape that he is an expert in eating. He has been paying attention to the adults.
Seeing that Ryan seemed to be unsatisfied, he immediately served the carefully selected grilled salmon and grilled lamb chops.
After a chat, Melita also knew that the destination of Ryan and Anna’s trip was also the Wind Tundra, and the Winterhold Academy was at the northernmost part of the tundra, which could be said to be quite convenient.
After enjoying dinner, Ryan took the initiative to say:
“If you, Ms. Melita, are going to the North”
Ryan wanted to give the other party a ride, but he swallowed the words when they came to his lips.
Because he suddenly thought that although it was no problem for Xueyu to carry one more woman, it would be easy for Anna to misunderstand.
"Then let's part ways."
Hmm?
In Melita's expectant eyes, she heard such an abrupt turn!
This was really disappointing to her.
She originally thought that Ryan invited her to ride the Hippogryph!
Such a strong Hippogryph, it would be no problem to carry one more person, right?
"Puff! Ryan, just let Melita ride with you." Anna couldn't help laughing after hearing what Ryan said.
"Well, okay!"
Ryan transformed the hardened adamantium in his hand into a metal seat with a hook, and said to Melita: "Then, Your Excellency Melita, I will add a chair under the Hippogryph, you can sit there."
At this time, Melita looked at Ryan with a little speechless.
Too much!
In order to avoid her disturbing their world, he actually let her sit alone below.
"Ryan, why don't you just let Melita sit behind you? Why make such a fuss?!" Anna pulled Ryan's clothes and persuaded him.
"Uh"
This is just because he is afraid that you will misunderstand, Ryan thought.
Since Anna doesn't mind, he naturally won't mind a beautiful wizard sitting behind him.
"Miss Anna, thank you for your righteous words." Melita quickly walked to Anna's side, took Anna's hand, and said kindly.
"Actually, Ryan is a very good person." Anna was a little uncomfortable with the other party's familiarity for a while.
After saying goodbye to the Cameron caravan, with Melita sitting behind him, Ryan controlled the blood feather, flapped his wings, and aimed directly at the Beverly Pass in the Casweis Province.
As it took off, the body of the horned eagle also fluctuated up and down, forcing Melita to hug Ryan's waist.
It seems that because it was the first time to ride a flying mount, Melita was still a little nervous and unaccustomed.
Every time the blood-feathered horned eagle flapped its wings, Melita sometimes pressed her chest against Ryan's back, and sometimes kept a certain distance.
This made Ryan feel uncomfortable.
You said you could keep it close, or it would be better to keep a distance.
But it was getting close from time to time.
Ryan could clearly feel the squeeze behind him.
"Is it here to take a ride?"
"Is it here to tease you?"
Soon, Ryan felt a little hot on his body
Stand at attention!
Like a chain reaction, this immediately made Anna, who was sitting in Ryan's arms, blush.
She had experienced this feeling last time.
This time, how could she not know what it was?
Perhaps, if it was just Ryan and her, Anna would not be so shy.
After all, she had the experience last time, and her mental tolerance was a little stronger.
But this time there are three people.
After a while, Anna's face flushed and she leaned softly in Ryan's arms, but Ryan didn't feel much happiness at this time.
It was a torment to be with two people.
I couldn't be with Anna in front of strangers.
Besides, herbal baked eggs seemed to be very nutritious.
Ryan immediately regretted it.
