Chapter 77 Dragon in the Magma
Star Dragon Outpost, Tavern.
The sudden disappearance of the undead made the tavern, which had been bustling all day, cool down.
Old Pete poured himself a glass of wine and turned his gaze to the other people.
The undead people around were swept away like a swarm of locusts, making the surroundings very safe. Except for two people selected to patrol and keep watch, the rest of the people stayed here to keep watch.
He looked at Miss Micko who was studying the potion formula on the table. It seemed that nothing could attract her attention, and everyone knew how much the adults valued her. It was almost the same if they didn't grant her every request.
Lian had already caught the attention of the men present. Although Lord Linde did not say anything, when Lian kept sticking to Lord Linde, the others understood that they should stay away from this woman.
Eluna was praying or in a daze. In fact, no one, including Old Pete, understood why this old woman who only knew how to eat and was mumbling nonsense was left at Star Dragon Outpost.
"What's that?" Old Pete approached the table with his wine glass in hand. "Your fingers are like that, and then it's like that?"
"This is called shuffling!" The person being asked gestured and said, "It's a game that undead people often play in taverns. The rules of the game are not difficult. I'll show you how to play!"
"Cards? Of course I know."
The undead gathered together all day long, sometimes suddenly they would play cards together, or use a few small stones to play a game that looked like chess but was not chess. They played all kinds of things, but none of the undead would sleep.
Everyone is used to the undead's style of doing things.
"How about playing cards and drinking?"
"How to play?"
"Play and drink at the same time. You will understand after losing a lot!"
The wine they drank was brewed by the undead. It had a lot of residue and tasted average, but the advantage was that the quantity was large, just like drinking water.
After a few rounds, Old Pete mastered the gameplay before he got dizzy.
"King, Queen, Knight, and..." Old Pete held two cards: "Why are the two jokers the most powerful?"
"It's the Fool! You don't understand!"
Both sides were clamoring for a quarrel.
Bang! The door of the tavern was pushed open, and the cold wind hit their faces. But then the person who pushed the door open was hit by a burst of hot air. The cold and heat sobered up the drunken soldiers.
Miss Micko, who was indifferent to everything, raised her head. Lian had stood up and walked towards the man. The mysterious Eluna Momo continued to bulge her big eyes wrapped in loose skin, but her eyes also had a spirit, especially when the other two followed Lind into the tavern.
"We no longer have gods to pray to, but we still have people to pray to..." Elna's eyes became brighter and brighter. For the first time, those cloudy eyes looked so clear and energetic.
Linde strode into the room and snatched the cards from Old Pete's hand: "Who taught you to play Gouji and Doudizhu together?"
"Also, this is called the Joker. It's not the Jester. It's the Wild Card, you know? It represents the sun and the moon."
Everyone's eyes were already on the two soldiers who followed Lind in at the door.
There was no noticeable change in their body shape, but there was a wave of heat on their bodies. Compared to Linde's restraint, they seemed unable to control themselves.
The two of them were like walking furnaces, so hot that it was frightening.
All successful!
This was a journey to death. Mickey had explained to them before they took the potion that the chance of success depended on luck, while failure seemed inevitable.
Unless, they can die and resurrect over and over again like the undead.
Now that everything has been successful, maybe it means that God is still blessing us... Bah, that's not right!
“It’s the glory’s favor!”
Glory will be created by ourselves, so we take care of ourselves!
……
……
Since learning the location of the Eastern Dragon Tooth Mountain Road, the undead people have determined a unified direction. Dozens of people marched forward in a mighty force, all wearing wanderer equipment.
Occasionally, scavengers along the way would stay away from them when they encountered them.
The Longya Mountain Road, the westernmost part of the Red Dragon Mountain foothills, is like a fire dragon with its mouth wide open. Although the coldest time is slowly passing, it still feels a little strange that there is scorching wind rushing out of the mountain road at this time.
Late at night, on the charred rocky path, a tiny figure walked into the mountain path against the hot wind.
He was physically exhausted and mentally stretched to the limit. The road from Prey Town to the Red Dragon Mountains was not short, and he had to avoid all kinds of possible dangers on the way. If it weren't for the magic potion, he would never have been able to get here.
The figure stood up, sniffed the scorching hot wind, took out the last bottle of potion, raised his head and swallowed the potion flowing with the power of the moon and the scorching wind into his throat.
It was not a good feeling to open his mouth so close to the volcano. The ash covering the narrow mountain path had reached a point that it blocked his vision. As he opened his mouth, the ash poured into his mouth and immediately became like a knife stabbing into his throat.
"Cough cough!" I couldn't help coughing. My nose was so itchy that I sneezed uncontrollably.
Fortunately, my body has recovered its strength, but I still have to endure the mental fatigue.
He kept walking forward. Although he had never been to Longya Mountain Road, he had heard of many legends, such as the fire disaster lurking in Longya Mountain Road, or other doomsday survivors, so he moved with extra caution.
"Who?"
A shout suddenly came from the side, his eyes blurred, and he found himself being grabbed by the arm and pressed to the ground. The sudden coldness on his neck made him dare not move.
"I, I'm from Prey Town. I'm a subordinate of Lord Rock, the mayor of Prey Town. I, I, I'm here to find Lady Serin! We've already sworn allegiance to Lady Serin!"
"Take him to see Lady Serin."
He was pulled up and only then could he see the person in front of him clearly.
He was wearing a light armor, with bare arms, and a helmet with an iron cage cloth hood that covered his mouth and nose.
In his hand was a long sword that was shining with cold light.
This guy is terrifying, even faster and stronger than me after drinking the potion!
"Yes, take me to see Lady Serin! The Mad Wolf is going crazy!" He kept shouting until he was hit in the ribs and then he shut up.
There is not only one road to Longya Mountain. It is winding like a maze. If he hadn't been stopped halfway, he really didn't know how long it would take him to walk, and he might even die here.
But the more I walked, the more I felt something was wrong.
"Sir, where are we going?"
The air became increasingly hot and stuffy, sweat dripped down uncontrollably, and my body felt like a piece of meat on a grill, being forced to release more and more oil.
The front was no longer pitch black, but fiery red.
It wasn't until he turned the corner and saw the bubbling magma that his eyes widened.
In front of him, a man with long hair and a strong body had his back to him.
"What's wrong with Mad Wolf?" The man turned around, his handsome face and slightly elongated ears made people feel dazed.
It turns out that there are such handsome people.
"Lord Serin!" The messenger knelt on the ground, but he did not expect the ground to be as hot as an iron plate, and he screamed in pain from the burn.
"Get up and talk." Lady Serin turned around and continued to stare at the lava, as if she didn't want to see his ugly appearance any longer.
"Mad Wolf has subdued the two-headed Wanderer. Lord Rock of our Prey Town is also willing to pledge allegiance to you, but some of his men seem to have gone awry." The messenger organized his words: "There was a conflict between the Wanderer and Mad Wolf's men. They don't intend to continue to obey Mad Wolf. Mad Wolf actually asked Prey Town to help him fight the Wanderer for the sake of power!"
"Sir, both we and the Wanderers have sworn allegiance to you! But Mad Wolf is betraying your trust!"
His top priority is to get Lady Serin to take action to prevent a war between Prey Town and the Wanderers.
Mistress Serin nodded gently, "I see. I'll come over after I catch the little guy."
"Gudong" the messenger looked towards the magma.
brat?
It’s definitely not a little guy that can roll in the magma.
"Let's go," the man who brought him here pulled him and said, "Stay with us. When Lady Serin's business is done, we will go to Prey Town."
The messenger could see that neither the mysterious and handsome Lord Serin nor the man in front of him took Prey Town and the Wanderer seriously.
He nodded obediently.
Although he hoped that Lady Serin would act quickly, otherwise the Mad Wolf would probably use force to force her, he had no right to make suggestions and could only follow obediently.
Not far yet.
"Roar!"
A deafening roar suddenly came from the direction of Lady Serin behind him.
The messenger couldn't help but widen his eyes and said, "Master, that scream just now is the little fellow that Master Serin mentioned?"
"Lady Serin will become the first dragon knight in the foothills of Red Dragon Mountain." The man's eyes showed admiration, as if he could already see the scene of him riding a dragon and dominating the wilderness.
So, the thing roaring in the magma is...
"dragon?"
Gudong.
It seems that surrendering to Lady Serin is the right choice, Lord Rock!
