Arcane Lord

With the scene of Xia Duo throwing down the dragon's head, the boarding at the port dock finally began. After the shock, the elves were surprised that humans could slay dragons, but they still couldn't bear to face the real dragon corpse. Difficult to judge.

Perhaps it was the sense of security brought by the human lord slaying the dragon, or perhaps it was the intimidation of the strength enough to slay the dragon. In short, the elves who were not qualified to board the ship did not take any further action other than watching indifferently.

Of course, the intimidation and protection of those elven families who were able to board the ship with all their members and some of their family members also played a big role in this matter.

It wasn't until the fleet slowly left Savil Port and headed north that Xia Duo breathed a sigh of relief. His spirit was tense and relaxed, and fatigue came to his heart again.

In fact, he was also very worried about the elves rioting, and now that things were going smoothly, it was not in vain for him to bring the dragon head here in person.

Let the soldiers at the port drive away the men of the human merchants. As for the elves who were originally gathered here, they also started to disperse in a sensible manner. Just as Shado was about to put away the dragon head and go back to rest, Oripus came over again:

"Lord Xia Duo, can this dragon head be sold to the Silver Leaf Family?"

Sha Duo immediately stopped, looked at Oripus, and asked in confusion: "Does the Silver Leaf family want this dragon head?"

"Yes."

Oripus' face looked slightly ashamed, but he still insisted on his decision, "A true dragon statue can enhance the reputation of the Silver Leaf family."

Although the family does not hunt them personally, it is still a skill to obtain them.

Hearing this explanation, Xia Duo found it difficult to understand Oripus's thinking. There were similar practices on Earth, and Xia Duo also found it difficult to understand. Apart from satisfying some vanity, what else could this method do?

Of course, this does not mean that reputation is completely useless, but it is just that too much thought is spent on this aspect, which is more or less at the expense of the last.

However, Sha Duo, an outsider, had no way of commenting on what Oripus did. He was more concerned about what the Silver Leaf family could offer in exchange for the dragon head. If it was just gold coins, then he was not interested.

Although Xia Duo cannot fully utilize the materials on the dragon now, he will always know about it in the future. Therefore, in addition to dragon scales and skins that can be used immediately, he also collected the dragon heart and other things that were not taken from the dragon head. The borneol that comes out.

It even includes some materials such as dragon bones, dragon meat, and dragon blood that Brotto has clearly said have little use value.

In fact, Xia Duo wanted to pack up the two green dragons and bring them back as a whole, but between saving some samples and saving the whole, he finally chose to save only some of the samples, mainly because the Tower of Time did not have so many stasis chambers to use. save.

If you put it in a dimensional bag or a portable space, there may be no problem in a short period of time. However, neither the dimensional bag nor the portable space is a stagnant space. There will still be a problem of time passage. Just like if it is placed directly in the outside world, over time, it will still cause problems. Go bad.

After thinking about it, Xia Duo said to Oripus: "If this dragon head only belongs to me, then as a friend, I can give this dragon head directly to you, but now, I must consider something for the other companions who participated in the dragon slaying. "

"I understand, I understand!" Oripus quickly agreed.

He did not believe that Lord Shado alone could defeat a giant dragon. Even now during the dragon disaster, the dragons were in a state of frenzy.

"Then I wonder what Lord Xia Duo needs from the Silverleaf Family to get this dragon head?"

what do you need?

Xia Duo wants too much, but the problem is that even your Silver Leaf family can't satisfy me! Moreover, it is difficult to price something like a faucet. It only depends on how strong the buyer's willingness to buy is.

Judging from the performance of Oripus, the willingness to buy seems to be quite strong, but it is impossible for Xiaduo to ask for excessive prices, so as not to destroy the overall cooperation that the two parties have basically reached.

For a moment, Xia Duo was in a dilemma.

After thinking for a while, he gave a vague price, "I hope the Silver Leaf family can provide some magic information related to dragons, or the processing technology of dragon materials."

In fact, Xia Duo doesn't have much hope for spells or anything like that, but if the Silverleaf family wants to use dragon heads to make the so-called "true dragon statue", they should at least have the corresponding material processing technology!

Xia Duo's bottom line is this.

Being able to exchange the originally unusable faucet for practical technology, even if the value of this technology is not as good as that of the faucet, it is not a loss for Xia Duo.

Now, he threw the question back to Oripus. Actually, he also wanted to see Oripus's sincerity.

Although there is already a tacit understanding of cooperation, trials and tests like this are not only happening now, but also in the future, until the two sides become allies that can truly trust each other.

…

Oripus was not surprised when he heard Xia Duo's request. Even though he agreed, he just mentioned that it would take a certain amount of time to sort out the relevant information and that the formal transaction could be carried out three days later.

Xia Duo generously said that Oripus could take the dragon head away first, and then send the relevant information three days later, which would be considered a completion of the transaction.

Sincerity has been given by Xia Duo, now it depends on Oripus's sincerity.

…

Returning to the Tower of Time, Shado fell asleep. On the front line of the war against the drow in Cormanthor in the East, Suveris, the representative of the Crown King, once again summoned all the high mages from the elven countries who came to support Cormanthor. .

Among them was Randall, the human Grand Arcanist from Netheril.

As if he didn't have enough rest time recently, Suveris's face looked a little bad, especially when he saw the two high mages from Ilfarang, his face instantly darkened.

But he disappeared in an instant, put on his signature kind face, and even squeezed out a smile. He looked at the powerful casters and said in a deep voice:

"Everyone, we have pushed the battle line back to the Tessa River. Now it is time to completely drive the drow back to their underground home!"

Suviris' intention was obvious, that he wanted a group of mages to destroy the magic core set up by the drow to draw the dragon's mad lock, but he did not mention it clearly.

After all, the essence of this matter is to let these supporting high mages deal with the drow high mages. Even if they are not the main force, the risks are still quite high.

"I agree!"

To the surprise of the mages from all over the world, the first person to agree was not the elves of Erlan, who had gradually favored Cormanthor, but a high mage from Ilfaran, who was the first to stand up and express his agreement.

Although the mages were confused, they could still accept it, but Suveris felt a little uncomfortable. The elves of Ilfaran hated Cormanthor, and the elves of Cormanthor naturally did not like Ilfaran.

Some time ago, the two men from Ilfaran had been blocking various actions against the drow. Of course, they did not directly block it, but used careful observation as an excuse.

At the same time, they were still in contact, planning to establish some sort of Northern Alliance. As a close confidant of King Mian, Suveris clearly remembered King Mian's furious expression when he heard the news.

King Mian, who has been in power for nearly a thousand years, can hardly suppress his emotions. This shows how much the so-called "Northland Alliance" displeases King Mian.

After High Mage Ilfaran expressed his approval, representatives from several small elf countries expressed their approval one after another. This scene made Suveris feel even worse.

Inexplicably, he wanted to end the meeting as quickly as possible.
