Chapter 601: 590. The Baron’s Private Property

Chapter 601 590. Baron's private property

After finding the salamander lair hidden deep in the lava mine, the ogre Gullitum has already regarded these salamanders in the cave as "gazels kept in the sheepfold".

‘Since this group of salamanders live in Suldak’s territory, they are of course the private property of Baron Suldak. ’ After Gulitum figured this out, he stopped hunting the group of salamanders, and he stopped drying the dried meat of the salamanders. The ogre believed that the living salamanders were more valuable than the dead ones.

As for the salamander covered in spar residues, it is one of the few mutated salamanders in the salamander group, and it is also one of the strong contenders for the salamander leader in the salamander group, but he seems to have been The leader of the salamander group was kicked out from the group, so he could only wander around in the lava mines without a fixed nest.

Once this kind of salamander with a fixed nest climbs out of the cave, it is a very terrible potential threat to the kobold slaves in the Lava River Mine.

So Gullitum has been looking for traces of that salamander recently, wanting to hunt that big guy.

The ogre Gullit and the salamander did encounter twice in the cave. The other party was a third-level monster, and that guy was not too afraid of Gullit. After the two battles, Gullit Mu didn't take advantage of it, and when Suldak met him, he was injured a little.

Although the wound healed quickly under the treatment of the holy light technique, this method aroused the stubborn temper of the ogre who refused to admit defeat.

He sharpened the ends of some steel bars to the extreme, and inserted these steel bars into the rock crevices one by one, just waiting for the crystal salamander to pass through these rock crevices, if the salamander didn't want to be trapped in the steel cage Inside, the sharp steel bars are bound to scratch the guts.

These steel bars were brought by the horse-drawn cart that transported sulfur ore from Wall Village. These short steel bars are basically cut off from the main frame of the reservoir dam. Villagers like to use these steel bars to make sickles and machetes. Some hunters in the village like to use these steel bars to make some short spear points and arrowheads to hunt gray rock iguanas in the barren land.

There were still a lot left in the warehouse. Hearing that Gullitemu needed it, the coachman in the village brought a bunch of them to Gullitemu. Gullitemu found a whetstone and polished these steel bars into a Only sharp spear points. .

In recent days, he has been wandering deep in the cave, using some sulfur as bait, trying to lure the crystallized salamander into the trap, but the salamander seemed to have opened up its rudimentary intelligence, facing the large number of traps in the crevice, Recently, I have only been willing to hide in the hot magma pool. Even if Gullitum just appeared, it would be like a frog by the river, jumping into the magma pool with a 'plop', swiping its giant tail and diving quickly. end.

The crystallized salamander has to fight the ogre Gullitum every day, which is probably the source of the ogre's daily joy.

Such battles won't sharpen the Ogre's fighting skills, but it will make him more intelligent when dealing with his prey.

Suldak brought some dried salamander meat into the treasure chamber, which was much more delicious than scones and marching rations, although he would occasionally be summoned by Aphrodite to the magic airship for a meal Dinner prepared by magic airship chef.

But most of the time, he still has to squat alone in the secret room and eat baked wheat cakes.

At this time, some dried salamander meat is also a good choice.

Just when Suldak was immersed in the sea of spiritual knowledge, he was earnestly learning the fourth rune 'Nafu', and now he has figured out that learning how to read and write these runes is only the most basic, so that he can only understand it After understanding the most basic pronunciation of Dragon Language, each sentence of Dragon Language is composed of these runes.

These runes also allowed Suldak to peep into the profound meaning of magic for the first time. Although this is somewhat different from the spellcasting principle of the spells and magic circles currently mastered by humans, it is magic in the original sense. It’s just that every time one more rune is learned, the ways in which these runes can be arranged and combined will multiply. Suldak has already passed the optimal age for learning, so in the face of the bombardment of these runes, every time he is confused. Only when the spirit is about to collapse will he withdraw from the sea of spiritual consciousness to rest.

Continue to meditate again and again, unknowingly, continue to expand his sea of spiritual consciousness.

Although his cultivation of strength has stagnated because of this, the sea of spiritual consciousness has nearly doubled in size recently, and he has seen a wider star field in the sea of spiritual consciousness.

The red dragon once again passed through the stone wall of the war relief and came into the secret room, and the faint dragon prestige instantly enveloped the entire treasure secret room.

There was a strong smell of sulfur and fireworks in the cave. This time it seemed that it couldn't control itself. When it turned its head, it bumped into a stone pillar in the treasure chamber, and immediately smashed the half of the stone pillar into pieces and rolled down. In the Chamber of Secrets.

It buried its head in the pile of gold sand full of gold coins, and felt the red crystal in the pile of gold sand with its less sensitive lips. It urgently needed to eat some red crystal to restore the rapidly dissipating energy in its body, but those golden lights Instead, the shiny gold coins became the biggest obstacle for it to eat.

It flicked the faucet impatiently, and turned to see Suldak sitting on the cast iron chair. He was puzzled and puzzled, but he didn't make any aggressive moves.

It carefully sniffed the scent of Suldak, staring at the keel necklace on Suldak's neck with a pair of giant eyes, relying on the instinct possessed by its domineering body, it felt the secret and the in front of him. Human beings are connected by a few indistinct lines of fate, and the irritable emotions in their hearts suddenly calm down. It takes a few breaths, and a sense of drowsiness surges deep in its body.

The chin covered with thorn scales lay on the stone platform, the huge dragon head leaned on the dragon saddle made of Thorium, slowly closed its eyes, and it didn't take long before it snored.

Suldak woke up from the sea of spiritual consciousness. He felt a little tired mentally, and he needed to eat something to replenish his physical strength.

When he opened his eyes, a huge red dragon head full of scales appeared in front of him. Seeing this red dragon again this time, Suldak was not frightened.

He got off the cast-iron chair, walked as lightly as possible, and walked to the dragon head covered with crystal red scales. It was the first time he observed this huge creature so closely. Suldak found that the scales on its body seemed to be It is arranged in a certain mysterious order, and each scale contains countless magic patterns, and the countless scales allow these magic patterns to be spliced into a huge magic pattern circle, forming the first natural barrier of its body.

Those tough and huge scales are the second defensive barrier of its body. The neck of this red dragon is about ten meters long. Near the war relief stone wall, you can already see the gorgeous shoulders, neck and wishbones of this red dragon. The dragon skin on the back looks a little loose, with a row of thorn-like dragon mane on the back.

It was almost a habit. Suldak stretched out his hand, and a ray of holy light surged out of his palm, and then the holy light fell on the red dragon's wound.

It was as if a ray of light shone into the red dragon's wound from top to bottom, and quickly healed the wound on the red dragon's neck. The red dragon seemed to feel the pain, and let out a deep roar in its sleep, and then the pair of eyes The coconut was even bigger and opened its giant eyes, staring at Surdak standing in front of it.

Suldak didn't withdraw his hand, but instead cast the Holy Light spell again in front of it.

The red dragon let out a low growl again, and seeing the look in its eyes, it was obviously 'you hurt me'.

Suldak took a step back and stopped his movements. The angry red dragon also calmed down. It didn't even raise its head, just lying on the stone platform, with most of its body on the other side of the relief stone wall. On one side, a pair of spiritual eyes stared at Surdak curiously.

Suldak knew that it had the habit of eating red crystals. This time he brought some red crystals from the sulfur mine specifically for the red dragon. Of course he had to feed them at this time.

Seeing the red crystal, the red dragon finally stopped lazily lying on the ground. It shook its head slightly and moved to Suldak's side, staring at the red crystal in Suldak's hand with its big eyes. , the expression of those eyes is clearly 'why don't you feed me? '

With complete eye contact, you can clearly express your thoughts, and Suldak didn't delay any longer, and quickly threw the prepared red crystals into the red dragon's mouth one by one.

When it chews the red crystal, the crisp sound of "cracking, crunching" is like chewing a carrot, as if to show its happy mood, but it wants to lean the dragon's head to Suldak, every time it bites the red crystal with its sharp teeth. The shattered, crystal shards splashed everywhere, coupled with the magma-like saliva in its mouth, it was also full of lethality for a while.

Suldak took two steps back, pulled out a piece of dried salamander meat like a baguette from his magic pocket, took out a small skinning knife, sliced off a piece of it, and threw it in his mouth to signal that he wanted to eat too.

The red dragon chewed on the red crystal, staring at the jerky salamander in Suldak's hand. This baguette-like jerky was more like a toothpick in the eyes of the red dragon, but it still refused to let it go , a pair of giant eyes stared at Suldak, eyes full of expectation.

Suldak shook a large piece of dried salamander meat in his hand: "Salamander meat, it's very dry, you probably don't like it, next time I'll bring some more red crystals!"

As he spoke, he cut another piece with a skinning knife and stuffed it into his mouth. The red dragon stubbornly moved closer. The smoke from his mouth made Suldak cough repeatedly, and Suldak took another two steps back. , held up the jerky salamander meat, and said to the red dragon: "This is not very tasty, look... are you sure you want to try it?... Salamander meat?"

The red dragon continued to lean towards Suldak's arms. Suldak had no choice but to throw the whole jerky into the red dragon's mouth. After thinking for a while, he pulled out all the jerky from his pocket. It was stuffed into the red dragon's mouth, and its salivating tongue rolled slightly, and all the dried meat was swallowed directly into the stomach without chewing.

Suldak opened his mouth and stood on the spot with a face full of understanding. He suddenly realized that he had simply underestimated the food intake of this red dragon. Preparing the food by himself was more like a snack for it, but Sur Dak immediately discovered that this dragon really has such a large appetite, even if he has mines, he can't afford it.

Judging by its appearance, it clearly does not speak Dragon language or Imperial language.

Suldak didn't know how far a red dragon could learn a language. The Duke of Angus Bradbury had been dead for at least 800 years, and the red dragon Lord Johannes also died shortly after his death. It seems that this red dragon should be about 800 years old. For a giant dragon with a lifespan of several thousand years, it is indeed a young red dragon that has just left its infancy.

After it ate a little something, seeing that Suldak was no longer feeding and throwing, it continued to lie lazily on the stone platform, ignoring Suldak.

The fact that the red dragon can lie beside Suldak in this way obviously has a certain degree of trust and affection for Suldak.

Suldak has begun to realize that these dragon words are likely to be handed over to this dragon, and this red dragon should be Iser in the mouth of Master Johannes.

Suldak also had a bit of a headache. This red dragon looked like a free-range pig, and seemed to understand nothing except survival instincts.

Seeing that the scales on his arm were still at six, Suldak left the treasure chamber again, returned to the sulfur camp, filled his magic belt with red crystals, and brought some dried salamander meat. Selina returned to the treasure chamber with reluctant eyes.

When he rushed back to the secret room of the treasure, the red dragon was no longer in the secret room.

Suldak immediately settled down and continued to study those runes.

At this time, the seventh scale had grown on his arm, and these scales the size of a thumbnail had formed a small piece on his right arm, and each scale was light blue, with only a hint of reddish at the edge .

The growth of these scales is also a process of slowly merging the body with the dragon's blood. Surdak found that the body is undergoing some subtle strengthening. Whether it is strength, agility, or balance and coordination, it is obviously stronger. He is bold Trying to use a skinning knife to cut a wound on the arm, the skin actually formed a natural repulsion force, and because the knife did not inject power, it only scratched a white shallow mark on the arm.

At this time, Aphrodite sent a call signal.

Suldak looked at the summoning circle that emerged from under his feet, and a void gate slowly appeared in front of him, and he stepped into the void gate with ease.

The next second, Suldak appeared in the narrow cabin of the magic airship. Looking out the window, the magic airship was slowly descending.

Aphrodite was already fully dressed, disguised herself as a young knight, and looked at Suldak expectantly.

"The city of Bena is coming soon. I thought about it. It's better for you to take me out and find a reliable place to stay. It's safer than me wandering around..."

Aphrodite smiled at Suldak.

"Okay! I have been to Bena City several times, and I know there is a pretty good hotel in the city." Suldak said.

He was covered in volcanic ash, and he looked like a miner who had experienced a mining disaster, so he went into the washroom to clean up. After all, he was a baron in front of outsiders, and a nobleman should look like a nobleman...
