Cthulhu Gonfalons
Chapter 40
‘Choosing Something Ignored’?
Looking at the attitude of Snow “no room for negotiation” and seeing the big box full of equipment, Palin hesitated for a while, and finally, he could not resist the temptation to pick something and pay ten gold coins.
Then, with the boss watching him, he began to choose from the items in the box.
As a witch who had worked in caravans, Palin was quite experienced in identifying equipment. He searched widely and quickly found something valuable.
It was a piece of armor that had been mostly destroyed with only about a third of the back complete. After examining it carefully, he felt that this leather protector seemed to be made from a kind of skin from a fire-resistant demonic beast. Even though it was only a small piece, it could be made into things like a flame-retardant chest shield, and, in the worst situations, a pair of fire-resistant gloves.
A pair of flame-retardant gloves was not even equipment with charm, but at least it was worth over a hundred gold coins. He only needed to pay the labor to make it.
This discovery excited him. He did not hurriedly finish searching, but instead chose this broken leather armor as his top choice and continued searching for other items.
However, his luck seemed to have run out, and after a while, he still had not found a second precious item.
Finally, Palin could only whisper in her heart, “Your Majesty, in your opinion ... What is the most precious thing in this box?”
Sui Xiong has long been confident and smiling, “It depends on what kind of things you want.”
“Yang Mulia ... What do you mean?”
“There are many valuable things in this box, but the most valuable is not necessarily what you really need,” Sui Xiong said. “First of all you have to think clearly about what you want most before you ask me.”
Palin was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, “I want to, of course, a piece of powerful equipment.”
“’Strong equipment’? What makes equipment strong? ”Sui Xiong asked.
Palin was deep in thought.
As Sui Xiong said, how should one define powerful equipment? It shouldn't be just about the price, right?
For example, for gamers, a top-level mouse and keyboard set is certainly a powerful piece of equipment, and it will be more powerful if the set is designed by computer experts and has a special fast key on the keyboard.which can meet many difficult techniques by just pressing the key once.
When Sui Xiong was studying in college, a junior student of his, who had very good computer technology but very humble gaming techniques, was, raging after being defeated more than twenty times in a row by him in a brutal manner. The fellow student then made a powerful set of equipment in less than a month, a keyboard that had nearly twenty keys, he said, more of a general keyboard that deals with a very practical set of techniques. With this practical device, his fellow students, whose e-sports level was much lower than Sui Xiong, beat him forty or fifty times in a row. In addition, he also defeated all of his schoolmates and was known as an unmatched master among non-professional players in the field of non-electronic sports.
If non-professional e-sports games do not allow the use of such foul equipment, perhaps junior students can really enter the professional circle by relying on this practical e-sport equipment.
Of course, equipment that was quite powerful in combat was practically not in this box. But the lesser things can really be found here …
Palin thought for a long time and finally came up with an idea of what she really wanted.
“Your Majesty, are there any magic books left in this box?” She asked.
“Of course. Check the bottom of the box. There was half of the magic book in a worn coat made of thick cloth. The spells inside are not at a low level, and right now, it might be a bit difficult for you, but it might be a perfect match for Satan. ”
“But I want to remind you that the spell recorded in this magic book ... is very unusual, and may trouble you.”
Palin thought for a while and finally decided. He soon finds half of the magic book that remains in accordance with Sui's instructions.
To a mantra expert, the magical books of previous masters were the crystallization of experience and wisdom, the symbol of inheritance, and irresistible temptation. Even if there would be trouble, he could not resist the temptation of these treasures.
The pages, made of demon beast skin, were old, but the words were written in special ink and were still very clear. Many of these words come from the ancient fairy language used by witches. It was complicated and rambling but could clearly and accurately reveal its meaning, and ambiguous expressions were rare occurrences. It was considered one of the languages that magicians had to learn.
To become a magician, one needs to understand different languages. In addition to the common language on the continent, magicians must know the language of ancient elves that can accurately record things, the language of Dragons that contain magic, and, dwarf runes can be directly used and released as spells, and special language is required when communicating with creatures in heaven and hell, as well as the mysterious language that witches often use internally. If the commonly used languages that witches were to understand were listed, they would amount to at least ten languages.
Although Palin was just a little witch who had just entered the profession, the language of the ancient elves was obligatory not difficult for her, and she could understand the contents of this magic book by just glancing at her.
Satan, who was born in the southern magic nation and educated in the famous magic tower, understands a total of thirty-one different languages and is a versatile walking translator.
Palin simply glanced at the book, and her eyes were fixed on him as if welded to it. He can't move them.
“This ... unexpectedly ... Dragon Slaying Spell ?!”
Hearing this, Snow was stunned for a moment, frowned and looked at the child asking for customers. The boy was shocked too. He carefully thought of something, but still looked puzzled.
Of course, Palin, who was really interested in the contents of that magical book, was unable to see these things. He stared at the magic book attentively and could not help but say to himself, “Does the Dragon Slaying Spell really exist?”
“It depends on how you define it.” The child in charge of the customer's request has continued his calm, smiled and said, “If your request is a helpless ‘naga sleeping lying in front of you, waiting for you to cast a spell for half a day and then cast a spell to kill him ‘, then such a spell exists. ”
Saying this, he walked naturally behind Palin, and read the notes in the magic book.
Palin was comforted by him. He rubbed the pages of the magic book inscribed with his finger, looked at the complex spell model, and roughly understood its principles after a while.
“From the principle of this spell, it seems that the requirements are not so strict. As long as you can hit, you can be very detrimental to the dragon, ” he said.
“But the so-called ‘big danger’ is actually very limited to naga.” The boy slightly frowned, but smiled and said, “Dragon vitality is not like ordinary creatures.”
Then, a gray shadow appeared behind him with a whistling wind hitting Palin's head.
This shadow was extremely fast, and if it hit the target at once, Palin's head would definitely be destroyed, and she would die. But before reaching the target, Palin's bracelet trembled slightly, and the ghost of a transparent jellyfish appeared in the air, waving its tentacles. A sharp blade made of coldness appeared and stopped the shadow before a cold light circled Palin's head.
The explosion!
With a fierce collision accompanied by a blunt sound, the sharp blade collapsed, and the shadow was repulsed. The boy, surprised and suspicious, rushed back. As he walked a step or two, his hands turned into terrifying claws, and a sturdy long tail dragged behind him.
It was the long tail that attacked Palin.
The smiling face of the previous natural socialist had completely disappeared. This strange-looking child not only showed strong intent to kill Palin, but also alarming coercion.
It was the intimidation of the strong against the weak. No. gabe. Intimidation is naturally demonstrated by predators at the top of the food chain when facing their prey.
If Palin was alone, she would also feel afraid of facing intimidation even if she was lucky enough to escape the child's attack, and she could only escape or beg for mercy. But now, not only was Palin nervous, but also her enemy.
“Where are you from!” The boy, who had turned into a terrifying creature, shouted at him in surprise and fury.
Sui Xiong did not answer her question. Instead, he was talking about something else. “The magic book says that the magic of ‘Dragon’ Slaughter, honestly, is not strong, and if the dragon is struck by it on its body, it is estimated that the dragon will only be slightly bruised. But if the dragon was silly enough to transform into a human form, it was no wonder that a spell spell could kill one's entire family. ”
“And how dare you make a surprise attack on my followers? Are you ready for my punishment? ”
He was barely finished before the transparent body of the jellyfish suddenly exploded into innumerable points of light, and it became several times larger than before by being integrated with ice magic that permeated the air. A huge tentacle condensed into an ice shot towards the child which had turned into a strange appearance and hit him hard.
A cold light flashed across the boy's eyes, and he pressed both of his claws on this tentacle without hesitation. He had always been very confident in his own strength, even demonic beasts known for their strength should not think of winning over him.
With a loud bang, the tentacles and claws smashed into each other, and the giant jellyfish that floated in the air trembled, while the child banged backwards. He retreated four or five steps; his feet scratched two clear traces onto the sturdy floor.
“How is it possible!” His eyes widened in shock, and he could not believe he had no upper hand in terms of strength.
“You will know whether it is possible or not when you knock the ground!” This time, Sui Xiong waved a total of four tentacles.
He had already predicted the strength of the strange child during the brief confrontation. At most, the boy was able to withstand the attacks of his two tentacles. Now his attack had already doubled, so he would definitely be knocked out with a single punch!
However, the four tentacles failed to hit the target and were blocked by a circle of white cold light.
Snow, who was smiling earlier, suddenly became angry when he saw the boy being attacked secretly, so he made a powerful shield beside Palin by casting magic. He stared intently at this resolute brat.
He clenched his teeth and started rolling up his sleeves like an annoyed old man would pick up a feather cloth to hit the brat who had caused trouble.
However, before he started fighting Sui Xiong, he had already started fighting against the child, and the battle was completely one-sided.
This left him very confused, not knowing what to say or do for the time being. But when he confirmed Sui Xiong's identity, he suddenly looked berserk.
By the time the child was about to be seriously injured by Sui Xiong, he rushed to save her. First, he stared at the child ferociously, and then he fought with all his energy to deal with Sui Xiong. He chanted a spell lightly which caused a cold force to emerge from his body.
“Young god? You want to play Frost in front of me? You found the wrong target! ”
