prince and dragon

Chapter 6 Mercenaries

The Kingdom of Aki is connected to the Sunset Forest. Although it is connected, it is a taboo place for the people of the Kingdom of Aki.

It is said that a vicious and greedy black dragon lived on the high mountain in the middle of the forest. It would fly out of its cave from time to time to plunder the treasures, food, and even a piece of clothing of the Kingdom of Ashi.Of course, the reason why people dare not approach there is that besides the ferocious dragon, there are other terrifying things in the Sunset Forest, such as trees that can eat people, bears that are four people tall, and huge insects. If there is one word to describe Sunset Forest, it must be "dangerous".

Even so, there are still people who ignore the "danger" and walk in the depths of the forest.No, in fact, it should be said that it is a group of people. They are wearing different clothes and their appearances are also very different, and they are passing through the forest at an extremely fast speed.And their goal is the cave of the black dragon.

"Morty, why haven't you arrived yet? You always say that it's almost there. In fact, it's always so far away." The man with the giant sword kicked away the branches at his feet, complaining about this long task.

"Of course it's coming soon, don't doubt my ability." The woman walking in front of the man suddenly turned her head and shouted at the man.The woman was wearing a mage's robe, holding a crystal ball in her hand, and the expression on her face was quite angry.

"Both of you, hurry up and follow! Are you making such a loud noise to attract a giant bear?" The big bearded man who was walking in the front stepped on a branch, turned around and walked to the man with the giant sword and the woman with the crystal ball. face. "Morty hurry up and lead the way, if Jay wants to arrive quickly, follow me quietly without talking."

Jay waited for the captain and Morty to come to the front together, and then murmured softly, "Huh, Captain, it was very loud just now. Did you say so, Brant." Jay leaned forward and wrapped himself in black French Beside the person in the robe, he began to confide his unhappiness.

"Jesus, he's started again, I hope Brant doesn't get mad," the little man with the cauldron behind the Captain whispered to Morty.

"Don't worry about that idiot, the whole team thinks Brant is easy to get along with. When Brant can't stand his complaints that day, he should learn his lesson. I look forward to that time." Morty listened The chirping voice behind was disturbing.

After hearing what they said, the captain turned his head and took a sneak peek at Brant, who was wrapped in the mage's robe.To be honest, Brant's strength was unfathomable. God knows how hard it took him to convince him to join his mercenary team, and the entire mercenary team successfully became the top by relying on Brant.Although the captain knew that he should thank Brant for his contribution to the mercenary team, and treat him with the closest attitude towards a brother, Brant was simply gloomy and terrifying.When you are face to face with him, you can't help but feel the creeps, even people like them who live a life of licking blood on the knife edge every day will feel fear.Only Jay was an exception. He was too familiar. Back then, he recruited Jay into the team not only because of his ability, but also to ease the atmosphere in the team.

The captain turned his head and put aside his previous thoughts.The most important thing now is to complete this mission.

"Here we are, Mount Lama." The captain raised his hand to signal everyone to stop. "Morty, can you sense the black dragon's lair now?"

The crystal ball woman nodded.

"Okay, everyone knows that we accepted the task of recovering the golden bed from King Axi, but the reward given by the cheapskate king is not as dangerous as this task. Then why do we have to complete this task well?" The captain glanced Looking at his team members, of course, when he passed Brandt, his eyes quickly skipped over, and finally stopped on Jay.

"Of course it's to get extra gifts for this mission." Jay said loudly.

"Yes, so our task is not only to take back the king's golden bed from the black dragon, but also to get all the property of the black dragon, which will be a huge fortune, enough for each of us to enjoy for a lifetime. According to those of the Axi Kingdom According to human descriptions, the black dragon is only three adults tall, which means that he is still a dragon that has just grown up, and a dragon that has just grown up means that he is still very weak, and we can kill it with our ability."

"For the riches, kill that dragon!" the captain shouted, and the morale of the others in the mercenary team was aroused, and they also shouted together, except for Brant who was hiding under the mage's robe.

In the Black Dragon Cave, Yilu woke up with a loud snoring sound. After finishing today's measurements and records, he walked out of the cave. Although there are still many things in the handwritten notes of the great master that he has not yet obtained. Understand, even Sager couldn't help him.But he is now capable enough to protect himself.And the black dragon Saige also allowed him to go out alone, to a place farther away from the black dragon cave.

Yilu looked up at the sky. Today is also a good day. He thinks he can come back later today. Anyway, Saige will not wake up until noon.He can organize the data he has collected in the past few years, which will make him very satisfied.

Yilu glanced back at the entrance of the cave, praying in his heart that the black dragon would also have a good sleep today, and then left the entrance of the cave with the small golden bag given by the black dragon on his back.

The mercenary team found this place not long after Yilu left.

"Captain, it's right there." Holding the crystal ball, Morty pointed at the huge black hole and said in a low voice.

"Okay, then Morty, you and Benson stay here, and Jay and Brant come with me." The captain left behind the crystal ball woman and the little man with a cauldron on his back, and then brought the man with a huge sword on his back. The man and the wizard, all wrapped in black robes, approached the black dragon's cave cautiously.

As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the cave, the three of them heard a loud snoring.

"As Brant said, the dragon is sleeping now. And it's sleeping very fast." Jay whispered. "We probably won't be discovered if we go in so openly now."

"It's better to be careful, sneak attack can make us more efficient, Jay." After the captain finished speaking, he sneaked in quietly with the two of them.

As the captain had imagined, the black dragon's cave was filled with treasure.Various gemstones are embedded on the inner walls of the cave, and there is a huge pile of gold coins in the center of the cave, on which lies a huge black shadow, just as Jay said, sleeping very dead.

"Something is wrong." Brant came behind the captain at some point, and a faint voice came from under the black mage's robe.The captain was jumped, but in order to maintain his majesty as a captain, he still tried his best to keep calm.

"What's the matter, is there a problem?"

"Look at these things." A pale hand stretched out from the black mage's robe, pointing to a pile of food, which was a pile of bacon and a tree.

"It doesn't look like anything special." Jay walked into the pile, took a good look at it, and there was nothing special, then he walked back to the captain and shook his head.

"Should we look for the big golden bed first?" Jay said softly.

"Brant, please put the dragon to sleep first." The captain said to the black-robed mage.

There seemed to be a few words whispered in the black mage robe, and the snoring of the black figure lying on the pile of gold coins seemed to grow louder.

"How long can this magic last?" the captain asked carefully.

"Two hours." The man in the black robe replied quietly.

"That's enough, so can Brant trouble you to inform Morty and Benson again?" said the captain.

The black robe mage nodded, then the pale and slender hand stretched out of the black robe again, and snapped his fingers.Morty and Benson in the woods about 100 meters away from the cave suddenly heard the sound of snapping their fingers.

The captain waited until Morty and Benson arrived in the Black Dragon Cave, and began to assign tasks, "In order to ensure that no accidents happen, let's transfer these to Benson's space ring first, Morty, come and sense it, King Ashi's one The location of the golden bed."

Everyone started to move, only Brandt stayed where he was, and the captain didn't arrange any tasks for him.He found an empty place to sit down and waited there quietly.

Morty sensed the bed in no time, it was in a hidden corner next to the pile of gold coins.Find it anyway, and they can get a commission from the king.Never dislike having too much money, this is the consensus of all mercenary teams.Then they asked Benson to come over and put the bed into the space ring.

It's just that when the bed was moved away, the things under the bed surprised everyone.

"There are some bling clothes, and some not so bling clothes. Even, there are children's clothes. Oh my god, there are ropes." Jay couldn't wait to go forward and flip through the pile, but it turned out that He was a little disappointed. "What are these? It's too worthless. Don't tell me that this black dragon still has a habit of collecting clothes."

When the captain saw this, he was lost in thought. He remembered the words that Brant had voluntarily said when he first entered the cave.

"Brant, you are right, but there is something wrong." The captain's voice reached the ears of every member of the mercenary team.

"What's wrong, is there another black dragon? Captain, don't be scary at this time, it will disturb the morale of the army." Jay shrugged, feeling nothing.

"Didn't you find out that this cave has a strong breath of life?"

"Dragon's breath of life?"

"No, it's human. Someone lives here!" the captain said with certainty.

"You're saying a dragon lives with a man, and that's unbelievable." Morty bet everything he'd seen and heard, "No one would ever live with a dragon, and the dragon wouldn't allow it." A human invaded its own territory. Even in the Kingdom of Lasai, the country that regards a black dragon as a god, there has never been a dragon and a human living in the same cave."

"But the small portion of food, the clothes, the quilt on the bed, it's all suspicious."

"Could it be that the dragon prefers the human form?" Morty guessed. It was better to make her believe that a pig could fly than to make her believe that a dragon lived with a person.

"Impossible, look over there, there are big pieces of food. A dragon won't be so troublesome." The captain pointed to the other side of the pile of gold coins.

"Hey, what is there to argue about, don't forget our purpose, instead of wasting time discussing whether a dragon will live with a person, it's better to transfer these treasures quickly, and then kill the dragon, no trouble Not anymore." Jay reminded from the side.

The captain nodded, and everyone continued to work.

At this time, the black-robed mage suddenly stood up and walked towards the entrance of the cave.Jay noticed that Brant followed suit.There is nothing in the hole.Brant stood quietly at the entrance of the cave, exuding a gloomy aura.

Jay thought Brant was tired, so he patted Brant on the shoulder, as if to let him take a good rest. To a swordsman, mages are extremely fragile. Although they can have powerful spells, they are not physically strong at all. Well, Jay knew that any mage didn't like others pointing fingers at his physical problems, but he felt that as Brant's friend, he should give a friendly reminder.

At this moment, there was a huge roar in the cave.The four people in the cave were running towards Jay and Brant.
