Chapter 64 64. Apocalypse Forecast

A paradox lies in front of Annan at this moment:

The report that Michael was abused by the carriage means that Annan’s travel has become dangerous——

Annan needs to ask Blue Dragon for help, so he needs to leave Breeze City and go to a secluded suburb——

Annan needs to ask Blue Dragon for help if he wants to solve the security problem——

Seeking the help of the blue dragon requires the protection of the mage tower carriage——

“Leave it to me.”

Michael said so and left the tavern. Not long after, a mage tower carriage stopped at the door of the tavern. The white paint is not new, and the mage tower emblem is no different from the real one.

“Is this the Mage Tower Carriage?”

“It was borrowed from my other friends.” Michael responded to Annan’s surprise, “She doesn’t mind having one more report on her.”

Annan gave him a thumbs up: "You are as reliable as Mr. Fast."

"I helped you and you still scolded me?"

Getting into the carriage, Annan left Breeze City, Came to the last glade.

The familiar summoning spell tore a gap in the space, beautiful scales and thick limbs like works of art emerged on the other side, and the echoing dull low roar floated into the forest——

Like a pale gauze curtain The ghost floated to the crack, seemed to be observing Annan, and danced several times to wake up the sleeping blue dragon.

The position of the scales changed, and the dull murmur disappeared, turning into a low and rough voice with a hint of laziness: "Human, you are disturbing the great dormancy of the dragon clan."

"Sorry to disturb you, I want to Buy some magic items from you."

"I am a dragon! Not a merchant!"

The grass next to the fissure rippled with the angry roar that woke up, and the mountain of treasure crashed. Rolling the coins down, the ghosts and skeletons hurriedly restored themselves to their original appearance, leaving the bare rock beneath the coins exposed.

Annan seems to have gained insight into some kind of truth.

"I am willing to pay... money that satisfies you."

After a brief silence, the giant dragon eye appeared behind the crack.

"What do you want to buy."

"Defensive magic items."

The blue dragon uses dragon language to command ghosts and skeletons to move from "covered with a layer of treasure." I found several rings and mage robes in the corner of "Rocky Mountain".

The skeleton leaned under the blue dragon's feet and moved its jaws. The three ghosts held the mage's robe and rings. The blue dragon introduced the spells they had burned respectively: the clean mage's robe was burned with the spells to defend against malicious detection, stones Skin, shield, cleansing; the blood-stained mage robe only has spells to protect against malicious detection.

The three rings are respectively inscribed with: Fireball; Summoning of Lower Elements; and Detection.

Blue Dragon priced them according to the greedy nature of the dragons: fifty thousand gold coins, twenty thousand gold coins, and three ten thousand gold coins.

"You give me ten thousand gold coins, and I can buy them all from other places." Annan said helplessly.

The veil ghost approached the blue dragon at this time, and seemed to be telling the blue dragon the true price of these magic items, so that they would be close to the selling price in the town.

The good news is that the prices of these magic props are actually 20% lower than those in towns. The bad news is that Annan still can't afford them.

But Annan had too much hope in buying the magic props... He had another deal.

"Your Excellency the Great Blue Dragon..." It still started with a familiar sentence pattern. Annan said respectfully: "Have you heard of leasing?"

"What is that?"< br>
“A kind of paid rental. For example, if I borrow this mage robe from you, the ownership of the mage robe still belongs to you, and no one can take it away. I only have the right to use it, and I also need to ask you for it every day. Pay a gold coin.”

The stuff is mine, and so is the money.

Blue Dragon can't think of any shortcomings in this, but he feels that something is wrong - things shouldn't be like this.

“Which piece do you want?”

The fierce and soft-looking Gilded Mountain finally made the blue dragon unable to hold back.

Annan pointed to the mage robe inscribed with four magic spells.

"Then...you have to give me 50,000 gold coins every month."

"That's impossible. Why should I spend 50,000 to rent a month when I can buy it for 50,000?"
< br>"Are you teasing a blue dragon?" The blue dragon's sharp teeth slowly emerged. "I just hope for sincere cooperation."

As Annan opened the box at his feet, the oil lamp that he had thoughtfully placed in the wooden box in advance made the gold coins shine with a golden light.

Crash - Crash -

Annan grabbed the heavy gold coins and let them slip from his palm: "I thought we were already familiar with each other. It seems that we should give these beautiful golden elves to the ugly businessman... ..."

"How much do you want!"

"300 gold per month, plus a magic ring that can release fireball once a day," Annan continued before the blue dragon spoke. : "A month is 300 gold coins, a year is 3,600 gold coins, ten years is 36,000 gold coins...and ten years is just a few sleeps for the great dragon clan."

"...So, in a word For sure!”

As if worried that Annan would regret it, Blue Dragon asked the ghost to throw the mage robe and ring to Annan.

After getting the ring, Annan also threw 300 gold coins across the rift.

The sweet sound of gold coins falling made the blue dragon's vertical pupils no longer sharp, and he narrowed his eyes in intoxication -

"Wait a minute..."

The blue dragon's vertical pupils He regained his sharpness, and the angry dragon roar shocked the forest.

"Why are there still some gold coins left in the box!"

"Because there are no more to buy."

Annan scanned the bottom of the box, there were about sixty or seventy coins... Well, it seems that there are some missing. .

Looks like I need to talk to Martin when I go back.

But how could the blue dragon tolerate the gold coins disappearing in front of his eyes——

"What do you want! Tell me! I'll lend it to you!"

Annan replied sincerely: "I don't need anything else..."

The remaining rings are not worth spending any more money on. .

But the blue dragon refused to leave Annan. When there was not much time left in the rift, it found an eyeball-shaped chess piece, and then said: "I allow you to touch it...the remaining gold coins are mine." !”

“What is this?”

"Artifact."

Annan's expression gradually became solemn. He did not feel that the blue dragon was deceiving him, so he stretched out his hand and touched the chess piece in the dragon's claws.

An indescribable message emerged in the mind at the moment of contact: This evil spirit chess piece is called "Apocalypse Forecast", which will count down the major events that the holder is about to encounter.

A countdown appeared in front of Annan's eyes as if the whole world was flashing for him. And now, the countdown shows: twenty days.

“Okay!”

As the blue dragon retracted its claws, the strange countdown disappeared.

Annan obeyed the agreement and pushed the box into the rift together with the gold coins. With some doubts, he got on the carriage and returned to the Morrowind Tavern.

"Michael, do you know about Evil Chess?"

"What is that?"

Michael's reaction showed that he didn't know, and Blue Dragon There is no reason to deceive yourself.

Unexpected for the moment, Annan suppressed his curiosity about the major event that would happen twenty days later, and returned to the present: Since he is not Levi's, how can he get rid of this troublesome identity?

Announcing the truth on a suitable occasion?

"Do you think a banquet is a suitable occasion?"

"What is a suitable occasion?"

Michael felt that Annan would be more likely to say stupid things when he came back.

"Announce to the outside world that I am not Levi's."
