Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords.

Chapter 126: Beating the Silver Dragon (4000 words)
"Smaller than you?" Looking at the young Silver Dragon girl who was only about 1.6 meters tall and had a childish face, Levi disdainfully compared the heights of the two with his hand. This action said it all.

"Although I look young, if I use human age, I am already 35 years old."

The Lord calmly sat down from the carriage and said nonchalantly, "I think you can definitely chat with a half-elf."

Levi found that he really had a short memory. Some time ago, he and Miriel had a misunderstanding about the lifespan of humans and immortal species. He didn't expect to be defeated again by this silver dragon girl.

The lifespan of a dragon is often measured in thousands of years. Thirty-five years old is considered an uncle among humans, but in the long lifespan of a dragon, it is just that of a young girl.

Damn, I'm so envious.

Levi suddenly realized that this person was not the right one!

It would be fine if he didn't live as long as others, but in terms of personal strength alone, if he didn't have cheats, he would be miles ahead of humans.

In the end, he could only sit cross-legged on an empty carriage with the Zats and play cards to relieve his worries.

Zathhogg and his two buddies learned a few tricks from him and used them to deal with the newcomer Orak. However, they didn't expect that the old orc was very sharp-eyed and caught them cheating on the spot, making him lose face.

"Boss, don't blame me. I didn't expect Orak to have such good eyesight." Zat touched his swollen head with a look of grievance.

Orlak just smiled and said, "I may be old, but I'm not blind. Even a blind person can see that you are changing the cards in front of me."

But this novel card game is indeed very interesting.

"Go away, you have embarrassed me completely. Don't say you were taught by me when you go out."

The Lord used his big butt to push Zat aside and shuffled the cards with fancy tricks: "Olak, I'll play a couple of rounds, but playing cards without any extras isn't fun, how about we bet on Jinke?"

Seeing someone's winking eyes, Orlak, who had lived for decades, understood instantly and said with a smile: "Okay, but my lord, I don't have much money, so you better take it easy."

On the other side, Sophia, who was idly looking at the blue sky and white clouds and thinking about her own things, was unconsciously attracted by the conversation of several people.

"Jinke?"

She came closer and watched with curiosity as the three of them played cards she had never seen before.

Levi didn't explain much and just played with Hogg and Orak.

"Hogg played a pair of kings. This old man Orlak definitely doesn't have a bigger card!"

The annoyed orc who was disturbing the lord was kicked away and ran to yell at Hogg, the werewolf.

Hogg was so angry that his face turned green. The cards hadn't even been played yet and already someone knew about them. What a waste of time.

Orak just smiled and ended the hand with a single king and a pair of queens.

Under the sea-like water released by the lord, Orak successfully won dozens of silver grams.

After a few rounds, I won nearly two gold coins in total.

This made Sophia, who was standing next to her, stare with her eyes wide open. In such a short period of time, the old orc earned more money than she earned in a month of hard work.

"No more playing, no more playing, let others come."

Orlak waved his hands, looking like he had made a fortune and was ready to retire.

Before Zat could say he wanted to play, the silver dragon girl shouted impatiently, "I want to play, I want to play!"

He quickly sat down in the seat that Orlak had left.

She watched for a long time and already understood how to play this card game.

In her opinion, just by playing cards, she can win so much money. What’s the difference between that and picking up money?
Besides, this card game is very simple, she can play it!

The lords and Orlak at the scene smiled knowingly, but they still had to put on a show. Levi frowned and asked, "Do you have money? Why are you here if you don't have money?"

"This... Can't I use my working hours instead?" The Silver Dragon Girl said cautiously.

She really had no money now, and the small treasury she had saved with great difficulty was swept away by that old woman, so she ran away from home.

Where can I get money now?

Even the broken weapons and equipment collected in that carriage have not been sold yet.

"Okay." Levi nodded reluctantly, but he was actually smiling in his heart.

Then, with the Silver Dragon Girl's excited expression, the game began again.

But I don't know whether the lord had bad luck today or the Silver Dragon Girl was really a genius. He kept losing and soon let the Silver Dragon Girl win everything.

"hey-hey."

Looking at the dozen or so gold coins piled up in front of her, Sophia's hands were shaking with excitement. In just a short while, she won a fortune that she could earn in a year.

"I win! I win!"

Sophia, who won another round, stretched out her hands excitedly: "Give me money!"

Several expressions of hesitation and anger flashed across the lord's face. Finally, he sighed helplessly and put a gold coin into the hand of the silver dragon girl with great reluctance.

"Again, again." Sophia took the initiative to sort the cards. It was obvious that she was addicted to winning.

When the game was halfway through, an orc ran over from the front, shouting: "Boss, there is a group of bandits blocking the road ahead."

"I don't want to play anymore. I don't want to play anymore." The lord put down the cards and stood up to stretch his muscles.

The duck that was in her hand flew away, and Sophia was so angry that she was about to say something indignant, but the next sentence made her shut up. She felt that winning or losing didn’t seem to be very important.

"We didn't succeed in slaying the dragon, so sending these bandits here is just the right way to relieve our fatigue."

All the orcs were eager to try, and Zat even picked up the double-edged battle axe and put it on his shoulder: "I almost forgot how to use the battle axe."

"I haven't been active for a long time."

Orak stretched his neck and raised the two blood-red battle axes in his hands.

It is also a warlike one. It was temporarily appointed as the commander when facing the dragon army before. Therefore, it has not personally killed the enemy since it came to High Cliff Castle.

These are a group of extremely vicious and cruel people. The silver dragon girl, who has lived in Dragon Island since childhood and has never seen the world, is trembling in fear.

Even when she came to the wilderness, she did not fight or kill anyone. She just used the name of the dragon to gather an army of followers and let the Gorgons collect treasures for her.

The lord also wanted to see what kind of bandit group dared to touch the tiger's whiskers.

The dragon was not slain, and everyone was very angry. "Hey, there are dozens of lizardmen and hundreds of vassals. When did Highcliff Castle become a nobody? Even cats and dogs dare to block the way. How fresh."

The lord held up a monocular telescope and clicked his tongue.

A group of lizardmen wearing tattered leather armor and holding scimitars were driving their vassal kobolds and goblins to place wooden stakes and stones across the road to set up defensive fortifications.

This arrangement was obviously intended to stop the carriage from moving forward.

Generally, wilderness bandits would make this kind of arrangement when robbing a passing caravan, and then swarm in when the caravan sends people to clear the wood stakes.

This is disgusting, but it works pretty well.

Unfortunately, they chose the wrong opponent.

"Three hundred pulses." Levi just raised three fingers.

The impatient orcs rushed forward with grim smiles, and with a group charge they beat the small bandit group into a panic.

In Lord Li's opinion, this person can't even be called an opponent, he can only be regarded as a so-called experienced baby.

Apart from the dozens of lizardmen who still had some fighting power, the remaining goblins and ogres were like straws and could be easily cut down.

The orcs' javelins are incredibly powerful. All of them are already level five and have reached perfection in throwing. They can hit the target every time within a distance of forty steps.

Just the first round of projections was enough to knock down the same number of bandits as them. The most powerful lizardman was stabbed into a blood gourd in the blink of an eye. With the defeat of the clan leader, total collapse happened in a flash, and the remaining goblins and ogres fled in all directions wailing.

The orcs and barbarians chased after them, and except for a few particularly agile ones who escaped, the rest were all killed. It took less than a hundred pulses to defeat this bandit group.

At this moment, Levi, who was standing on the carriage and looking into the distance, suddenly grabbed a javelin and aimed at the fastest goblin.

The goblin ran the fastest when he saw that the situation was not right. Now he was at least three hundred steps away from the convoy, and could only be vaguely seen as a small black dot.

"Are you crazy? What kind of threat can a throw from this distance pose?"

Sophia on the side suspected that this human had gone stupid because of the money he won.

Although she is a giant dragon, she also has some understanding of humans. With the meager strength of humans, they can throw a javelin eighty steps at best, and whether they can hit a person within these eighty steps depends purely on luck.

Three hundred steps is almost four hundred steps. I'm afraid only a giant can reach this distance, and there is no guarantee that he can hit the target. After all, a humanoid creature at this distance is no different from an ant in his eyes.

But what was strange was that the human's subordinate was looking forward with his arms crossed, his face full of confidence in his lord.

Is it...

Impossible, absolutely impossible!
The silver dragon girl quickly shook her head. Unless Hercules were alive, this distance was a ditch that humans could never cross.

Levi pulled back and pulled his shoulders to gather strength. All the muscles in his body were twisted into one force. He suddenly turned around and threw.

Except for those who had seen the Zart that their leader had thrown before, everyone else was slightly surprised, especially Orak, the old orc who claimed to be knowledgeable, and Sophia, the silver dragon girl.

The power of this spear was unquestionable. Orak swore that he had never seen such a terrifying spear in his life.

The explosion caused by the friction with the air when it let go reminded it of a long, long time ago. It was a long-lost drought season. All the crops were dead. The boys in the tribe even drank animal blood out of thirst. Led by it, the tribesmen prayed to the gods for mercy day and night. Finally, on a moonless night with few stars, they welcomed the first muffled thunder that resounded through the heavens and the earth.

Even the silver dragon girl next to him wouldn't be able to withstand this shot!
It was almost impossible to catch the trajectory of the javelin with the eyes. In the blink of an eye, it crossed a distance of more than 300 steps and stabbed the goblin into the ground.

No wonder this kid Mutuo regarded this human as a god. His words were full of worship and awe. He even said that this human was the reincarnation of the god of war.

In the past, it was just regarded as a joke, thinking that every leader had to have a title to increase his reputation and consolidate his rule.

But now Orak was completely subdued. He could knock down a fleeing goblin with one shot in just four hundred steps. This was beyond description of horror, and only the gods could explain it!
The silver dragon girl opened her cherry lips wide, looking horrified as if she had seen a ghost.

Are you kidding me?
A human threw an iron javelin three hundred steps away. Could this be a giant who can shapeshift? !

The sudden voice of the Lord pulled her out of her dream.

"Don't even think about shirking your debt!"

Li Wei said with a smile: "I hate people who don't keep their promises the most. I happen to be quite powerful, so I will not hesitate to punish you. It would be bad if I accidentally hurt you and destroyed the trust we have worked so hard to build."

Sophia was indeed frightened and shrank her neck. To be honest, she had really thought about this idea in her mind just now.

After all, the two of them had only agreed verbally before, and she couldn't guarantee that this human really just needed her to work.

What if these are just excuses to keep her calm? Maybe they will sell her out once she gets to the place.

All she had to do was take advantage of the time when no one was paying attention and the bed crossbow was put away to cancel the transformation, turn into a giant dragon, fly high into the sky and escape from this terrible place.

But now, all thoughts disappeared with this shot.

I'm afraid she will be shot down as soon as she flies into the sky.

No wonder this human would not restrict her activities as long as she stayed within a certain distance. This was all because of his powerful strength.

The dragon slayer is so scary!
Sophia wailed inwardly, and realized firsthand why those dragon elders hated and feared the dragon slayer.

No wonder even those powerful dragon elders could be captured by humans. If all human dragon slayers were of this strength, then even if that old woman, her mother came, it would be useless.

Sophia felt her throat dry and nodded with numb eyes.

She probably can't escape...

Seeing the application for joining the team that had suddenly disappeared before reappear, Levi nodded with satisfaction.

He didn't think of tying the silver dragon to his side with just a few words. Only carrot and stick could prevent this timid silver dragon girl from having any other ideas.

After his knocking, there should be no problem now.

All the orc barbarians were cheering, even more excited than Levi, the person involved.

The stronger their leader is, the more proud they are.

Enjoying the endless flattery from everyone, Levi just put his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky.

Thinking back to when he had just escaped from Cologne, he could knock down two members of the ace cavalry regiment at a distance of 400 steps, let alone 300 steps.

However, he was indeed beyond his expectation that he could knock down two players. It could only be said that it was all thanks to Damon's assist in knocking them away.

However, a hero never brags about his past achievements, so it's all up to Zat to brag about his past deeds to others.

After all, it would be so embarrassing for him to say it in person.
