MTL - Magic Tower Starry Sky-Chapter 1397 Dragon Island Raiders - Step 1
The half-dragon-shaped dragon who started his hands suddenly lost all momentum, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead and back like a human being. The dragon scale it was so proud of was like a paper lake in front of this sword, it couldn't work at all, and it was just inserted into the body.
Whether or not he stabs at the heart of the dragon is only a matter of the other party's thought. No matter what the other party's scruples were, it didn't do anything, and it didn't want to bet that this human being really didn't dare to kill.
Dragons have many bad habits, but they are not good at gambling, because they only want to win. And the game of only winning but not losing is not called gambling.
Even without mentioning the magician who pierced the dragon's heart with a sword, the human next to him held his claws tightly and couldn't move. In terms of strength alone, this human being is not in his current form. Moreover, the other party seemed to have room to spare, not trying his best to support him.
The applause broke the deadlocked silence, and Marku, the guardian of Longdao Town, said: "Both guests, I think no matter what misunderstandings there may be, they should be resolved at the banquet later. Now let's transport the fleet over here." How about transporting the goods to the ship properly. If there is a delay, or if the goods are damaged too much, I will also be responsible in front of the Dragon Emperor."
Lin didn't reply, but just shifted his gaze to Marku. Aware of the silent doubt, the humanized guardian half-raised his hands and said, "Don't worry, I can guarantee that no one will cause trouble here again. A battle with no chance of winning is meaningless. You The sword in your hand and the one on your waist are probably weapons of the Shakiri clan."
Another dragon suffered a loss, and the other humanoid dragons who followed behind Marku, who were ready to move, were all quiet now. Especially when their leader pointed out that the weapon in the magician's hand was a box cut, most dragons gave up their minds about going forward.
Although the weapons of the Xiaqie clan have gradually become silent in recent years, they have become the magic weapons that only exist in rumors. But the giant dragons have a long lifespan, and they, who can become the guardians of Dragon Island Town like Marku, are no strangers to Boxer.
To say that among the people who have always been named dragon slayers, three or four out of ten use the box cut. With such a high ratio, the giant dragons dare not be careless. Box cutting is enough to break through the defense they are proud of, and it has become the common sense of the Dragon Clan.
No dragon would choose to confront it head-on after confirming that the person in front of him was using that notorious weapon. If you really want to challenge him, you need to make another plan. So right now, they have no fighting spirit.
Withdrawing the sword and retreating, Lin used the flashing technique to instantly return to his original position, only then did Long realize something was wrong. The magician's disappearance does not seem to be due to his special speed, but other reasons.
Because if it is a matter of speed, no matter how fast it is, there should be a moving process. But no matter where such a magician appears, it seems to appear suddenly. This made his attack so unexpected.
As Lin retreated, William also withdrew the long sword holding the dragon's claw, and retreated slowly. On the human side, except for those ordinary people who seemed anxious, the two humans who dared to challenge the dragon didn't care whether they were facing one or a group. There was no panic in the expression and eyes.
Marku, who didn't want to cause trouble, said: "I will inform you of the time and place of the dinner, please don't forget." He nodded slightly, and left with all the dragons after saying hello. In fact, if the princess hadn't provoked her too much before, it wouldn't even want to show up. If you do too many things outside of your duties, you will suffer.
After finally sending the last batch of dragons off the ship, Lin looked at the pure white sword master walking beside him, and sighed helplessly. Of course, William was puzzled by the sigh, and returned a puzzled look. Lin explained: "The things I have committed recently are all because of that kind of young children. I probably fought with children to my death, and I met such uneducated people."
William tilted his head, not knowing how to respond. After holding back for a while, a sentence came out: "Sorrow."
Save your sister! But considering that William can worry about other people's feelings, this is already a great improvement. Someone doesn't care about whether his reaction is appropriate or not.
Compared to those two, the other ordinary people on the ship, as well as the people on the neighboring ships who could see the situation of the ship, had mixed feelings in their hearts. They should have blamed the magician who was following the boat for causing them such trouble; but considering the strength of the other party, they couldn't say anything about this complaint. So everyone held back very hard and felt very bored.
As the patriarch of the family, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and William's father, Henry had to come forward. It's just how to solve the problem, his mind is also a mess. In the end, he only thought of the method decided at the beginning, and said:
"I'd better take you directly to find the family's backer on Long Island. I need to go there and deliver the list of goods. Even if the dinner is held today, I should come back in time. But you have to be mentally prepared, Speaking of backing, in fact, it won't help us too much. It's just the goods we brought ourselves, and we mainly trade with that one."
Well, it's very old man's demeanor, you have to do something by the way when you do everything. When the old man was doing business, it was normal for him to show his face to see if there was any way to solve his problems. If it can't be done, it's just a drop in anyway, and this trip is not in vain.
Such an approach is neither right nor wrong, it just depends on the urgency of the matter. There is nothing to say if you are not in a hurry; if you are in a hurry and are delayed by something you do along the way, it depends on which unlucky person is responsible.
But it was well planned, and it was hard for Lin to refute. Anyway, I don't have an accurate idea, so let everything take its course.
Since he had to act, the Blink technique was of course the best magic weapon for hurrying. However, considering that William and Henry were not wearing elven robes or other protective magical equipment, using the Blink technique would either make them work harder or expose them to risks, so Lin simply let Henry arrange it.
The old man who is familiar with all kinds of ways on Long Island quickly arranged a small boat to take people ashore. The main berth on the pier is still used to disembark the livestock on the fleet, that is the main purpose of this trip, and no one dares to neglect it. Therefore, if other people want to go ashore, they can only be connected by small boats, rushing to the beach and landing on the island.
After arriving at Long Island, there will naturally be a carriage to pick them up. And the ones pulling the cart are not ordinary horses, but dragon horses with dragon blood. This is a godly horse that everyone dreams of outside, but it can only be used to pull carts on Longdao.
It's not a waste, it's a necessity. Ordinary horses can't move normally on Long Island at all, because the giant dragons can't restrain their dragon power, so they can only use monsters like dragon horses to pull carts.
And it was not only Lin and William who were traveling with Henry, but also two stewards of the Greco Chamber of Commerce. They are responsible for carrying the list of the fleet's private goods to trade with the giant dragon. After the two parties discuss the content of the transaction, the goods will be delivered to the door and the agreed items will be exchanged.
The reason why they don't directly bring the goods to the door for trading is because there are often dragons who see the goods and put all the things down, and the things they take out for exchange are not worth their value. Instead of this, it is better to negotiate well in the early stage before delivering the things to the door.
In the stage of negotiation, although the Dragon Clan is proud and likes the lions to open their mouths, they are still rational, and they don't regret it when they make a deal. If you let them see things, the situation is different. If you don't leave everything behind, it's like your whole body is uncomfortable.
According to someone, this is typical obsessive-compulsive disorder.
On the way of the carriage, Lin Duo asked about the situation of the old dragon he was about to meet. Henry didn't say much before, and Lin didn't ask too much, because they all thought that this trip should be quite simple. But when he arrived at Long Island, he realized that things had become more complicated, and Lin had to put more thought on these trivial matters to avoid overturning.
It is not very accurate to say that the Greco Chamber of Commerce's backer and main trading partner is an old dragon. Strictly speaking, the opponent is an ancient dragon.
The giant dragons in Lost Land, no matter what kind of dragon they are, have an average life span of two to three hundred years. After 200 years old, you can be called 'old'. Like the old black dragon Augustus in someone's house, his age is two hundred and thirty-three years old.
But the so-called average lifespan is not the age at which the dragons die of normal old age; it is the age at which the dragons continue to die and finally kick to the iron plate and die. Even if the giant dragon is regarded as an intelligent creature, there are endless people who have won the title of dragon slayer in each era.
The reasons for this situation are not difficult to understand. Let's say someone came to the Karlsruhe Empire and had the opportunity to contact the dragon clan, how could he not be able to contact the conflict?
This talented race~www.novelbuddy.com~ was born to stand at the top of the food chain, and has enough strength to make them look down upon all creatures. Such self-confidence, of course, in exchange for their arrogant and domineering style.
But Midi is a world with individual power. There is nothing wrong with the dragon being the strongest race, but there are always some special cases where other races are stronger than the dragon.
So what will happen when a giant dragon that has not yet reached its peak, or has begun to decline from its peak, meets a strong man from another race?
There are usually two outcomes. For one, the dragon has triumphed yet again. Second, there is one more person in this world with the title of Dragon Slayer.
In addition, the whole body of the Dragon Clan is full of rare magic materials, and there is no age limit. Therefore, those giant dragons that have entered their old age have simply become the best hunting targets for humans. Therefore, few dragons have a good death.
In order to prevent the old dragon from being deliberately hunted, there is a dragon tomb, the place where all the giant dragons ultimately belong. In order to protect the tomb of the dragon, Long Island has become the guardian place of the giant dragons.
The above are public statements. Lin judged according to common sense, its content logic is quite reasonable. But it's hard to say if there is something hidden.
