Simon soon made a decision. As Edkin said, in the face of poverty, nothing is impossible to sell, especially the not-so-precious moral integrity.

After all, he was so poor that he had to use tricks to steal audiences in the theater, and was seen by Rosen and others. It would be too hypocritical for him to talk about face now.

So he changed his previous reserve and put all the magic skills he owned on display for Rosen to buy with a clear price tag.

Although Rosen did not have the coins of this world, he had a lot of gold, and the purity was quite high.

So when he placed the gold bars in front of Simon, the latter immediately lost all hesitation and reluctance.

Even Edkin and Holga, who were standing nearby, looked eager when they saw such pure gold.

But they have remained restrained.

After all, although the two of them are greedy for money, they still have a bottom line.

At the same time, they had seen the strength displayed by Rosen, especially the dazzling and terrifying chain lightning, so even if the gold bars were dazzling, they still showed at least calmness.

Rosen was not polite and bought almost all the magic skills that Simon had. He also gave him some extra gold to ensure that he could answer questions about these magic skills at any time.

For the sake of the brilliant gold, Simon readily agreed to Rosen's request.

After the deal between Rosen and Simon was over, Edkin found Simon again and said, "You said before that Sophia wanted to kill you, but that despicable Fauci stood by and watched. Don't you want revenge?"

"Of course I do, but..." Simon looked at Edkin and said, "Listen, I know you want to save Kira, so you want me to help. I also like your idea of ​​bringing Fauci down."

"But it's really not worth the risk of looting Neverwinter." Simon said, "It's too dangerous."

"Is it worth it to rob your audience like you did before?" asked Edkin.

"That's just because I'm too poor." Simon smiled and took out a big purse and said, "But it's different now."

Just when Edkin thought he would refuse, Simon suddenly smiled and said, "But who would complain about having too much money? Besides, I also hate Sophia and Fauci, so I will join you. It's just..."

He turned to look at Edkin and said, "Do we know what kind of arcane magic protects the vault?"

"We don't know now." Edkin said confidently, "But we will find out."

"How?" Simon asked. "Can you sneak into the castle without being seen by any of the guards?"

"Of course I can't." Edkin had obviously thought about the whole process and said immediately: "Maybe we can find a druid, a shapeshifter, who can come and go without being noticed, and turn into a mouse or a deer, and blend in with the other deer in the castle, and no one can find it."

"The key is where do we find this druid." Rosen said.

"I'm like any druid, Doric," Simon said. "She is unique."

"It sounds like you two have a story." Luo Youwei said with a smile: "Tell me about it."

"Have you mastered your magic?" Simon asked with a stern face, and then said: "I do like her, but she finds that I lack self-esteem and am unattractive, so..."

"Poor Simon," said Diana.

"Don't feel sorry for him." Holga said to Diana with a smile: "This is his greatest quality."

"Thank you for the compliment." Simon rolled his eyes.

The edge of a desolate woodland.

A group of armored soldiers were surrounding a girl who was tied to a tree stump, and many civilians were watching nearby.

"In the name of Fauci Fitzwilliam, the prisoner is sentenced to death by dismemberment for his crime of disrespect towards the leader." The executioner announced loudly, holding the so-called charges.

The girl, who was tied to a tree stump by her hands, was fearless and shouted: "The Green Garden will never give in, and justice will not be strangled."

"Follow my orders..." the executioner shouted.

At this time, Rosen and others came over, and Edkin said to Simon jokingly: "Your Doric is a bit radical."

"Get ready." The executioner raised his right hand high.

"Do you need me to help?" Rosen asked.

"No need." Simon shook his head and said, "The one who is going to be beheaded is not Doric..."

Before he finished speaking, the horse of the knight standing nearby in awe of the situation suddenly neighed loudly, raised its front hooves abruptly, and threw the knight on its back to the ground. Then it shook its body violently and turned into a creature covered with gray-white feathers, looking like an owl, but with a body as sturdy and strong as a bear.

It was at least four or five meters tall, and even on all fours it was still taller than the soldiers next to it, which terrified the armored soldiers.

Even though they had swords, spears, and other weapons in their hands, they just waved them around randomly and did not dare to move forward easily.

"That's her." Simon smiled and pointed at the huge creature.

At this time, it slapped the executioner away with a slap, then used its backhand claw to cut the rope that tied the girl to the tree stump, then rushed forward one or two steps, waving its two sharp and huge front claws to knock the remaining soldiers away or to the ground.

The scene was quite shocking, and there was a feeling of overwhelming power.

"Wow, that's amazing." Luo Youwei said with envy, "It would be so cool if I could become like this."

"No, you can't do it." Simon said, "Transformation requires talent. Not everyone can become a druid."

"That may not be the case." Luo Youwei curled her lips, not quite agreeing with Simon's words, but she still asked, "What did she become?"

"Owlbear."

Doric, transformed into an owl bear, leaped up, seemingly huge in size but landed lightly on a horse, and at the same time returned to his human form. He untied the slingshot on his left arm, pulled the string with his right hand, and a flying stone flew out with a snap, knocking down the soldier who was secretly swinging his sword to kill the girl he had just rescued.

Just as Doric urged his horse forward, wanting to pull the girl up and escape quickly, a dazzling flash of lightning suddenly appeared, first striking a soldier who had just struggled to stand up from the ground, and then began to jump continuously.

By the time all the electric arcs dissipated, there was no soldier left who could breathe.

Even the knight who had just been knocked to the ground by the horse that Doric had transformed into was taken away by this wave of chain lightning, and by the way, contributed 800 merit points to Rosen.

To be honest, Rosen did not expect that these seemingly ordinary soldiers and knights could provide him with so many merits, which made him feel a little incredible.

"Who are you?" Doric, who had brown curly hair and two small curved horns on his head, looked at Rosen warily, his eyes full of anxiety, like a deer seeing a wild beast in the jungle.

"Don't be afraid." Simon quickly stood up and said, "It's me, Simon."

"Which Simon?" asked Doric.

"Hahaha..." First it was Holga, then Luo Youwei, and finally even Diana couldn't help laughing.

"We can usually hold back our laughter." Luo Youwei faced Simon's angry gaze and said with a stern face, "Unless it's really too funny and we can't help it."

After saying that, he laughed again.
