Chapter 299 299. The Djinn of Five Skeletons, Friendship Ivy
Lopas was indeed very, very shocked.
He had considered that this bard friend was a descendant trained by some big family and came out to see the world.
Hmm...that's still acceptable.
After all, if you throw a stone casually at the Hanjiao Island training camp, nine out of ten people will hit you, and half of them will be descendants of the great nobles of the Norland Kingdom.
Nobles are not rare creatures at all in Croya.
But he never expected that it was Duke Hanjiao himself!
He hesitated for a moment, then controlled the golem and knelt down directly, saying very respectfully: "Your Majesty the Duke!"
That is to say, this golem can withstand such a difficult action. If it were another golem, he would definitely be fooled on the spot.
"I know that my identity will make you feel pressured." Croya motioned him to get up: "I will give you a job in the golem management office, and at the same time open the golem modification and parts library to you.
Although the one you are entering now is the most basic engineering golem, if you want to continue to modify it, it can even become a diamond golem. ”
The golems on Hanjiao Island were inspired by the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce and the study of Miya's World Tree Elf body, so there was plenty of room for upgrades.
Just by adding parts and drawing magic patterns, even a farming golem can be instantly turned into a war golem that shoots magic missiles - this is probably a little ingenuity from Croya.
If one day the war really spreads to his territory, he will directly modify tens of thousands of engineering golems and immediately pull out an army.
Hiding troops among the people is just that.
After hearing Croya's words, Lopas was so moved that he wanted to cry, but in the golem, if he shed tears, he could only shed magic fluid.
After talking about the position given to Ropas, Croya looked at the golem and suddenly asked curiously: "Do you feel a little disappointed? After all, even if you don't enter the golem, I should give you a future.
Nowadays, you can't feel the sunshine, rain and dew, nor can you enjoy the breeze and snow. You will always be trapped in the golem. Even if it is extremely powerful, won't you be a little unwilling to do so? ”
"Of course not!" Lopas's voice came through the golem's loudspeaker: "I'm very happy! And I should be able to live for a long, long time."
Croya nodded: "Then I will give you the first task. Arrive at the Golem Factory at the Coral Base of Hanjiao Island before sunset. There is a gift from me there.
Remember, you must arrive before sunset, otherwise you will be gone! ”
Although Ropas didn't know what gift Croa was going to give him, he still ran immediately. The huge golem could cover a distance of tens of meters with each step.
Running fast in the sun.
There was really no one to stop him along the way, and there were even some cute elves who cast magic on him to help him run faster.
With the help of the elves, he quickly reached his destination.
It underwent a second transformation at the Platinum Bubble Golem Factory in the Air Coral Base.
The originally huge golem was shrunk to only a person's height, and the metallic shell turned into human-like skin. The magic patterns were hidden under the skin, and a steady stream of magic power flowed inside.
The breeze and ocean vapor swirled around him, making him cool and comfortable.
"..." Lopas' face was dull.
Before this, he could not imagine that there was such a special demon that was completely indistinguishable from a real person, but could instantly transform into a huge demon.
The head of the Golem Factory, Samir looked at him with satisfaction.
"This is a golem made by Lord Miya herself."
"You can enjoy the food and the breeze in the future. As long as it is everything that humans can enjoy, you can enjoy it.
When necessary, you only need to drive your magic power to transform into a demon form and crush everything with your power.
But Mr. Lopas, this demon statue is of extremely high value. From your future until the end of your life, you will have to work for Hanjiao Island and the great Lord Croya. ”
There are some things that Croya won't say and doesn't care about, but Samir must make it clear.
Because the cost of this golem was really hard for even him to accept.
The outer shell of the golem is entirely made of the bark of the simulated demon tree, which has the most magical power. The solution inside is made of dark blue marrow liquid purchased by the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce. Even the materials used to depict the magic patterns are high-purity arcane gold.
As for the materials used in those cores, even Samir couldn't recognize them, but was frightened by the huge magic power emitted by those materials.
This golem can accommodate all golem materials, can also be shrunk, and can also provide the same perception of sound, temperature and taste as human perception, which is a miracle.
So much so that as soon as this golem was made, it became the treasure of the entire Golem Factory. How many apprentices worked overtime every day just to oil and dust this golem. Unexpectedly, it was taken away by this little-known boy. .
Samir will definitely drill Lopas hard.
Ropas didn't know if he felt the "murderous aura" in Samir's body, so he trembled and quickly assured himself.
"Lord Croya gave me this opportunity! I will never betray you!"
Seeing how sincere he was, Samir nodded.
There are still a lot of tests waiting for Lopas to do next.
……
The other side.
Thinking that he had already taken leave anyway, it would be a big loss if he went to work again, so Croya, who was wandering around with nothing to do, came to a village.
He stood at the entrance of the village and looked at the picture in his hand.
Five glimmers of light are flashing on it - this means that there are crystal skeletons here, and there are five bones.
According to the goddess of the underworld, the deeper the suffering is, the more special the bones will be, and it is even possible to directly obtain powerful powers similar to those favored by gods.
Croya felt speechless. Although he had arranged for someone to find it, this place was said to be the most special, so he could only come there in person.
He put the pictures away and murmured to himself:
"What is the effect of the crystal skeletons in this village?" With that said, he walked directly into the village.
Of course, he was still dressed in the simple to somewhat crude bard outfit, and the yellow duck that the fish-tailed Sea Duck King transformed into was also with him.
His arrival quickly aroused the vigilance of the villagers.
The first person to run out was the village chief. Although this man was not the consul sent from Hanjiao Island, he had received training.
The young village chief saw Croya dressed as a bard and asked curiously: "Mr. Bard, what did you come to our village for?"
"I just came to the Western Region, and I'm a little tired. I want to exchange a song for some food. Do you think it can be done?" Croya said with a smile.
"Of course!" The village chief nodded immediately. Because of Croya, the bard had a very high status in the Northern Territory and the occupied Western Territory.
What's more, if a bard is willing to play beautiful music, life should become much more pleasant.
So he quickly gathered the villagers and arranged a performance platform for Croya. The villagers stared at it eagerly, waiting for Croya to play.
Croya glanced below and gently touched the strings.
A song from the elves, "Dreaming Breeze in the Forest," flowed out from his slender fingers. It was really like a dreamlike breeze floating among the crowd.
The elves' melodies were elegant and soft, just suitable for the increasingly leisurely life and daily life. The villagers were fascinated by it.
When the music gradually became calmer, they burst into thunderous cheers——
“Sounds good!”
“Awesome!”
"Thank you for playing!"
Facing their sincere thanks and cheers, Croya smiled happily. He glanced at several people and already had a plan in mind.
To be able to have five crystal skeletons in one family...how much suffering does this have to end?
After finishing the performance, Croya was naturally invited into the house to entertain him, and all the crops they brought out were crops produced in the mountains and forests of the Western Region.
Although simple, it tastes pretty good.
The powerful magic power provides Croya with extremely powerful digestion ability. Even if he eats more than a dozen meals a day, he will not feel full, so he can eat more delicious food.
He enjoyed the afternoon tea happily, and then asked pretending to be curious: "Mr. Village Chief, I seemed to feel a magical wave in the village when I was playing just now..."
Before the village chief showed a vigilant expression on his face, he showed a card with a sun pattern on it. The former's expression almost immediately became respectful.
That card represents the official certification of the Northern Territory. Although the status is not particularly high, it is still enough in front of a small village chief.
The village chief organized some words to explain: "There is a family in the village. They seem to have obtained some magic weapon that can make wishes and all wishes can be fulfilled.
I have already reported this matter to the Western Territory Management Office. Fortunately, you are here, otherwise I really don’t know how to solve it. "Uh... turns out you thought I was from the Western Territory Management Office.
Croya was about to say something when suddenly someone knocked on the door, and then a tall woman walked in directly, with an aura of awe, like a female warrior.
"I am Jessica from the Western Territory Management Office." The woman introduced herself: "I have been ordered to deal with what happened in your village."
She said it crisply, as if she was about to say "Where are you, kill a few" in the next second.
Then, the village chief showed an expression that was hard to explain.
He looked at Croya and then at Jessica, not knowing what to say at all.
Jessica also reacted at this time and reached out to hold her staff, completely treating Croton as a dangerous person.
"..."
Croya sighed silently and had no choice but to take out another card.
What he took out this time was the identity card of the Hanjiao Island Management Office, which was equivalent to the superior of the Western Territory Management Office.
With this card, Jessica's expression of being in danger of an enemy suddenly faded away, and she expressed that she would assist Croya to completely resolve this matter.
Croya was a little lucky. Fortunately, when he came out, Taling gave him a copy of the identity cards of all the positions in the North from childhood to adulthood, otherwise it would be really troublesome.
"Village Chief, please tell me in detail what's going on."
Since he had to pretend to be a professional handler, Croya naturally put on a smart and capable look and planned to understand it clearly.
The village chief quickly explained the matter in detail.
It turned out that there were five children in that family who joined a group to stay warm. All of them were orphans and had no parents or elders.
Just a few days ago, they suddenly took out an oil lamp. As long as they made a wish on the oil lamp, they could get it immediately, whether it was food or gold coins.
Croya felt slightly strange when he heard this.
Oil lamp? Didn't it mean a magic plant? How come it turned into an oil lamp?
He became more and more curious about this matter, and used his mental power to spread outside, and soon found the area where the five children were.
But unexpectedly, when his mental power was about to enter the house, he was hindered. A very tyrannical wave of magic stopped him.
That was at least a level six magic wave, otherwise he wouldn't have felt hindered.
What surprised him even more was that this magic power was somewhat similar to the magic power fluctuations in the Gray Desert. They were both the most primitive magic power of the desert's scorching wind and sand.
That is, the magic power before Leviathan's magic power eroded the desert.
So is this magic plant from the desert?
He thought for a moment, then simply took Jessica and the village chief to the front of the house, stretched out his hand and knocked lightly on the door.
After a while, a little girl about twelve or thirteen years old came to open the door. She was wary at first, but she felt relieved when she saw the village chief behind the two.
"These two are mages from the Western Territory Management Office." The village chief introduced: "Aisla, show the strange magic weapon in your home to these two mages."
For an ordinary village chief like him, the sudden appearance of such a strange magic weapon in the village was actually quite detrimental to his work.
He was eagerly waiting for someone to solve this unstable factor.
The little girl named Isla immediately showed an expression of joy on her face, and there was no reluctance at all as Croya imagined being forced to hand over things.
"Master Mage! My brothers and sisters and I are afraid of that djinn. It...it wants more and more things."
As she spoke, her voice became smaller and smaller, as if she was afraid of being heard, and her body was trembling.
"Evil spirit?" Jessica's expression changed, and she immediately took out the staff without hesitation and took out a scroll.
The surface of the scroll was filled with divine magic power and the blazing fire of love - it was a magical scroll obtained by cooperation between Hanjiao Island and the Church of the Goddess of Love.
When it comes to expelling evil spirits, the divine power of the Church of God is indeed much more powerful than pure magic power, and it can be considered a professional counterpart.
"Calm down." Croya comforted her, then bent down and smiled at the girl: "What does it want you to do? What did it give you?"
The girl Isla had a bitter look on her face: "It asked us to play games with it, and took us to a... so strange, so strange place! It was all sand, with just a few vines growing.
But it also gave us a lot of food... and things we'd never eat before! ”
Forgive her for not being able to describe it so accurately. After all, she is just an ordinary girl and cannot understand that the area covered with sand is actually a desert.
The more I hear this, the weirder it gets.
You can bring it into the desert and let it play games. Is it some kind of monster from another dimension?
There was really little information that Aisla could provide, so Croya and Jessica discussed it and pretended to be cautious as they stepped into this unremarkable courtyard.
The result was the moment he stepped into this courtyard.
The surrounding wind became scorching, dry and scorching, and rough sand slapped on Croya's cheeks with the wind.
He looked around and found that he had arrived in a golden desert. There was sand everywhere as far as he could see, and the golden sand grains were particularly dazzling under the sun.
This is definitely not an illusion, but a real desert.
Space transfer?
The ability of this oil lamp to be able to transfer space silently seemed a bit beyond his imagination.
Hmm...Why is the magic around me a bit familiar?
He was still able to remain calm, but the village chief and Jessica were shocked and couldn't understand why he suddenly appeared here.
Fortunately, they have all received training and know that calmness is the most important thing in this kind of situation. There is no talk of running around or anything like that.
They hid behind Croya.
Croya didn't care about their actions and silently hid his magic power under the magic power of the iris, gradually spreading like a network.
This perception didn't matter, he actually saw tall cacti growing in the desert. Those cacti were clearly the magic plants he had researched and used to calm the magic environment in the Gray Desert!
In other words, this is a gray desert.
‘Grey desert, vines…’
This coincidence reminded him of a very important thing - the daughter of the god of wine once said that there was a kind of ivy in the gray desert.
That is the treasure left by Dionysus.
After Croya learned the news, she has been arranging for Jamie to search, hoping to get the magic plant left by the god, but she has never found it.
I didn't expect that news would suddenly come out now. Could it be that we finally got it?
Even Kroya Furui Mubo's heart was a little excited.
Thinking of this, he immediately increased his mental power and began a wide-area search in an extreme way.
Then as expected, he saw some emerald green vines growing in the desert. The names of those vines were——
"Friendship Ivy."
"You are indeed here...but why is the magic power a bit broken?"
Although they are hidden in the magic of the desert, Croya has already adapted to the magic of the desert, and there are magic plants he planted here, so locating them is easy.
It was at this time that a voice suddenly sounded——
"A few guests."
"Welcome to my paradise."
His voice sounded childish, as if he was just a child.
However, before it finished speaking, Croya located its location and played the Gopher harp. The terrifying magic wave instantly drowned out the location where the sound appeared.
Now Croya's mind was filled with the fact that he was about to get the Ivy, and he had no intention of playing house with this guy, so he simply used half of his strength.
A moment later, a pitiful creature with a gaseous lower body was brought to Croya by the rainbow-colored light surrounding it.
Croya looked at it condescendingly: "I hate grinding guys the most."
"Mr. Lantern Monster, do you have anything to say?"
The village chief and Jessica looked blank for a moment.
ah? This... was caught?
Thanks to Mr. Yuehua for the reward and all the bosses for your monthly votes and recommended votes~
