Chapter 159 The Brilliant Holy Dragon
Dark golden flames ignited, burning the three bodies into flames.
Ash pinched his fingers, and three flames were swallowed by three mouths.
Although it is not a big meal, the energy bar meal replacement is acceptable.
The skull radiated blazing heat, and not only did Ash's head not feel drowsy, but he became more awake.
【Level: 88-》90】
{Achievement·[Ninth Level Perfection] achieved, reward: achievement points*90}
{Activate Achievements·[Tenth Level Perfection]: Personal level reaches 90/100. }
‘Next time, it should be something more powerful. ’
Ash ended his transformation and turned to leave.
The next day, Ash reappeared in the Adventurer's Guild, accepted a tenth-level mission and left.
This makes those who are interested frown. Isn't even a demigod enough to kill him? It seems that next time a truly strong person will have to take action.
Ash didn't care about the secret plot. Anyway, with his current strength and trump cards, unless a top demigod like Empress Chongming took action, even if a group of demigods surrounded her, he would be sure to escape or even fight back.
The Holy Dragon Mountain Range is a broad mountain range located between the Jiulong Road and the Black Dragon Road of the Chonglong Empire. Because the earth veins here present a strange shape, like a formation, the magic concentration here is extremely high, and bronze monsters can be seen everywhere. Silver monsters are often found, and gold monsters can also be glimpsed occasionally.
The gathering of a huge number of low-level monsters will inevitably give rise to powerful high-level monsters, of which the Lord of the Mountains is the representative.
The Brilliant Holy Dragon is a powerful ancient dragon that occupies this mountain range. It is so powerful that even the founding emperor of the Chonglong Empire had to admit its existence.
Moreover, this ancient dragon secretly took refuge with the Goddess of Dawn. If Empress Chongming hadn't beaten it to death and Goddess of Dawn stopped it, no one would have known about it.
However, the Chonglong Empire is an independent force after all. Even if the Brilliant Holy Dragon has the support of the Goddess of Dawn, it still has to bow to Empress Chongming and pay taxes to her every year.
Ash's mission goal this time is to have something to do with it.
It guards a pool of water called Shengyang Pool. Ashiu's mission is to steal at least one hundred kilograms of pool water.
However, the mission said it was about stealing, but Ash had no intention of stealing at all.
He carelessly took away bucket after bucket of water with a bucket.
This made a certain Gu Long's eyelids jump. He couldn't help but said: "Hey, junior, are you going a little too far? This pool of water can only produce 30 to 40 kilograms a year. Now you can directly After decades of pond water are taken away, what do you want me to drink next?”
Ash remained silent and just took out bucket after bucket of gold coins. When he felt that it was almost done, he said: "Is it enough?"
The glorious holy dragon entrenched on the top of the mountain flicked its tail and swept away the gold coins: "Enough, enough, you are much smarter than those idiots in front of you. It would be better to just buy it with money. You have to steal it. This water means nothing to me except It is no longer useful to quench thirst. If you buy it directly, I will sell it directly.”
Ash wasn't too surprised by this. After all, he was a dragon, and most people couldn't escape the trait of being greedy for money.
Physical love is secondary, and more importantly, coins are actually a way for dragon species to improve their strength.
When coins circulate in people's hands, they are inevitably contaminated by people's breath and traces of the environment during circulation.
Dragons can collect this kind of breath to simulate real dreams, in which they can sharpen their will and ponder things that cannot be studied in reality.
It's a pity that Ash can't do this. His blood is dragon, but he is not a real dragon.
Ash also knew that the Holy Sun Water was of no use to the Brilliant Holy Dragon, so he directly paid for it.
And most importantly, the client exposed the clues.
It's really strange that the mission was issued by the Bishop of Dawn Church, and his own family members stole their own things.
(PS: The Chonglong Empire is independent, but it does not restrict the missionary rights of the Zhengshen Church, but it does not have the rights to collect taxes, garrison troops, etc. that threaten sovereignty in other countries.)
"Why are you doing this? Can't you just sell it?" Ya Xiu asked curiously.
"Tax avoidance!" Brilliant Holy Dragon said in a matter-of-fact tone, "Do you know how much tax that damn bitch paid to get me to leave? Twenty-five percent!"
When it comes to the latter part, the tone of the Brilliant Holy Dragon is very sad and angry.
Twenty-five percent, no wonder this happened. Ash nodded to express his understanding.
"Boy, I think you are very smart, much better than those fools in front of you." Brilliant Holy Dragon said in a bewitching tone, "I have a path here, the risk is a bit high, but the profit is very high. The so-called wealth and wealth come from danger. If you have the guts, you will be lucky and I will be lucky.”
"I'm suitable for a big business, not a small business." Ya Xiu clapped his hands and said.
"That's even better. I can definitely do a big job here." Brilliant Holy Dragon said, "I have more than 10 million goods here. I took off the dragon scales, the dragon skin and the little ones under my hands. Something.”
"Originally I wanted to sell it slowly. Since you want to do something big, I will sell it all to you for 10 million. I don't care how much you sell in the future. You just need to give me the capital!"
Ash showed a hint of interest: "Can I take a look at the goods first?"
"Okay, come with me." The Brilliant Holy Dragon was also interested, so it said casually. Unexpectedly, Yaxiu's capital was quite large, and he was not like an ordinary adventurer.
However, no ordinary adventurer would dare to bargain with it.
As soon as it appeared, any adventurer would run away in tears.
Ash followed the Brilliant Holy Dragon to a palace.
The glorious holy dragon in the classical dragon image pushed open a door with its tail and motioned for Ash to look.
Ash took a look and couldn't help but glance at the Brilliant Holy Dragon: "You are so short of money that you even sell your blood."
As far as the eye can see, bottles of blood, stacks of dragon scales, and layers of dragon skins are laid out, all from different dragon species.
"It's lacking, it's very lacking." The Brilliant Holy Dragon pointed with its tail to the gold coins piled up into a hill next to it. "You see, this pile of gold coins could fit my whole body at first, but now it can't even cover the entire ground."
< br>
Ash compared the size difference between the Brilliant Holy Dragon and the gold coins. The wealth was really different from the original. He couldn't help but curious: "Are you being robbed?"
"Robbery? Robbery is not that cruel!" Brilliant Holy Dragon's voice was full of resentment, "That damn bitch, you just charge me taxes, but you actually want me to pay back taxes from a thousand years ago!"
< br>
A thousand years? Yaxiu was speechless. Even if he was not very concerned about money, he still knew how exaggerated the wealth he would get from collecting taxes from an ancient dragon for a thousand years.
The Brilliant Holy Dragon said nothing more. After all, it was very disgraceful to mention one's own defeat. If it wasn't too resentful, it wouldn't have complained when Ash mentioned it.
"Boy, can you eat these?" Brilliant Holy Dragon looked at Ya Xiu and said.
"I can eat it, but we have to negotiate the price." Ya Xiu said.
Although there are many of these things, they are all of ordinary quality, equivalent to human waste blood and dead skin. They are quite useful for low-level people, but they are not of much use to him.
Even if it is smelted and refined, it is extremely cost-effective and not economical at all.
However, it is said that it is suitable for low-level use, but it is just used by Martha and her subordinates. They are also complaining about the slow growth of power. After all, suitable talents cannot be cultivated overnight.
"How much do you pay?" Brilliant Holy Dragon asked.
"One million gold coins." Ash cut off a zero without blinking.
The Brilliant Holy Dragon spread its wings and roared: "Boy, are you kidding me? If something has a market value of ten million, tell me one million!"
"Come on, at our level, lies are no longer useful." Yaxiu said with his arms crossed, ignoring the threat of the Brilliant Holy Dragon, "Give me a realistic number, or you can find someone else to trade." Brilliant Holy Dragon used The golden head stared at Ash, as if he was observing Ash's strength, but he was not a demigod in any way: "Boy, are you not afraid that I will rob you?"
"You try and see if it's you who robs me, or I who take advantage of others." Ya Xiu stood there with a hint of indifference in his tone.
The solemn pressure was exerted on Ya Xiu, and the Brilliant Holy Dragon wanted to test Ya Xiu's strength.
Ash naturally pushed back without hesitation.
The two pressures collided in the air, causing the air to become vaguely distorted.
In the end, the Brilliant Holy Dragon took a step back. There were very few people who could use it, and they didn't have the ability to sell these goods. When they encountered something that could be bought, they would naturally trade it cleanly and get back a wave of blood first. Anyway, it was useless to it. It's almost free.
"Three, six hundred and twenty-three thousand four hundred and fifty-two gold coins." Brilliant Holy Dragon said, but he was wondering where Ya Xiu came from. He knew all the powerful men in the Chonglong Empire, but it seemed that there was no one like Ya Xiu.
New one? Or from outside?
Ash counted the gold coins in the space ring and took it out: "Five million gold coins, you count."
The Brilliant Holy Dragon did not move, looked at Yaxiu and said: "What else do you want?"
It knew that Ashiu, who had been bargaining just now, would never give more. Since it was more, it must be asking for something.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"A drop of your heart's blood and more ordinary dragon blood." Ya Xiu said.
The Brilliant Holy Dragon narrowed his eyes: "You know this request is very presumptuous, right?"
Forget about ordinary dragon blood, it's not like it hasn't been sold before, but the heart blood is one of the essence bloods. It's not something that can be easily given to others, otherwise it will be troublesome if there are any curses or contracts.
"You can sign a contract, I just use it to make it easier for others to change their bloodline." Ya Xiu said.
Originally, he wanted to go to heaven to collect the blood of angels to make it easier for Maria, but his goal changed after seeing the Brilliant Holy Dragon. This ancient dragon also had the aura of an angel.
Obviously, when it was promoted to the gem species, it was integrated into the blood of the angel species.
Since there is something close, why give up the near and seek the far.
Ash hit it directly. The bloodline of the gemstone species was much better than that of the golden species.
"Is it easier to get blood?" The Brilliant Holy Dragon raised a claw, "Add one million more, and sign a Dawn Contract."
Ash shook his head: "That's all. If there are more, I'll go to the empress to file a complaint against you."
"You are seeking death!" The Brilliant Holy Dragon roared.
But Ash was unmoved: "That's all. If you shout again, be careful of your previous accounts being revealed. I don't believe it's your first time doing something like this."
The Brilliant Holy Dragon grinded its teeth, and flames like flames spurted out from between its teeth. It was obviously in a bad mood.
The two sides were in a stalemate for a moment, but the Brilliant Holy Dragon gave in: "The Dawn Contract must be signed, and it must be attached. You are not allowed to reveal this matter."
It still couldn't guess Ya Xiu's strength.
"Okay." Ash nodded.
The Brilliant Holy Dragon took out a contract and signed it with Ya Xiu, and as promised, handed over a drop of his heart's blood and more of his ordinary dragon blood to Ya Xiu.
"Go away, kid!" Brilliant Holy Dragon said bluntly.
"Use the word please." Ya Xiu said.
The Brilliant Holy Dragon only replied with one word: "Get out!"
Ash stood still, just looking at his fingers: "Please, be polite, you don't want to attract the empress."
"Don't forget that you signed the contract. Do you want to be punished by God?!" The Brilliant Holy Dragon bared its teeth.
"Your contract only restricts me from being actively exposed, but it doesn't say that I am passive. If two demigods fight near the imperial capital, it will definitely attract the attention of the empress." Ashus rubbed his fingers, "If she asks why we are fighting , do you think you should say it or not?”
The wings of the Brilliant Holy Dragon fluttered but failed to hang down: "Please leave, you cunning boy!"
"That's right." Ya Xiu waved his hand, "Goodbye then."
"Never again!" Brilliant Holy Dragon snorted coldly.
Yaxiu didn't care about the Brilliant Holy Dragon's little temper. He turned sideways and the person had disappeared.
The Brilliant Holy Dragon narrowed his eyes at the place where Ash left, space? The authority of space? With a body that surpasses its limits, it’s no wonder he has to be afraid of me.
But relying so much on space authority will inevitably lead to failure sooner or later.
The Brilliant Holy Dragon snorted coldly, cursed Ash a little, quickly put this unhappiness behind his mind, and began to happily spread gold coins.
Soon five million gold coins were piled up on the ground, and the Brilliant Holy Dragon lay on it, stretching in a humane manner.
Sure enough, the gold coin bed is more comfortable. That damn mother-in-law is really guilty. She has made me unable to sleep well for a long time.
Thinking like this, a slender and tall figure appeared in front of the glorious holy dragon.
Um? Is that cunning boy back?
The Brilliant Holy Dragon narrowed his eyes and was about to scold him for what he was doing when he came back, but after seeing the figure clearly, his entire huge body froze there.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing here?" The face of the Brilliant Holy Dragon was full of human flattery.
"Collect the bill." The empress raised her hands slightly, "You are very capable, but you dare to evade taxes like this."
"Don't fight, I'll pay back the tax right now!" The Brilliant Holy Dragon immediately raised his hands in surrender.
The painful experience in the past tells it that it will never be able to defeat this violent empress.
Seeing that the Brilliant Holy Dragon was so sensible, the empress put down her hands and said: "I'll pay another 10% of the penalty, don't try any tricks."
"Yes." Brilliant Holy Dragon said feebly, "But Your Majesty, can you tell me what your relationship is with that kid, so that I can understand clearly."
The empress turned and left: "He is the father of my future child."
What the hell? The father of the future child? The Brilliant Holy Dragon was dumbfounded, that boy was actually the husband of the empress, how could it be possible? !
Even if his physical strength is indeed good, it is far behind compared to the Empress.
"If you dare to expose yourself, I will skin you."
Those words were light and fluffy, but they knocked down all the little thoughts of the Brilliant Holy Dragon.
It also wants to take the opportunity to find some additional benefits.
If the empress says it's true, then it must be true. Even if the goddess of dawn comes, it will be useless.
