Chapter 510 Placement
"How... is this possible... you! Why do you have such power!"
The Green-footed Dragon Snake was whimpering in Nohir's hand in a panic, All individuals of this race have an indescribable pride. This pride makes this guy still can't believe what happened to him until this moment.
But its pair of horns that were still tightly clamped by Nohir, the bones that were broken almost all over its body, and the huge sense of oppression that burst out in an instant, all of them Everything is telling it that what is happening now is definitely not a dream.
‘I didn’t faint. ’
Nohir was a little surprised. After suffering such severe injuries, even his mouth was cut into four parts, this guy could still continue to speak so energetically with his leaky mouth. This kind of perseverance is really surprising.
No matter how tenacious this guy's perseverance is, in Nohir's eyes, it no longer threatens him at all, so he just casually threw the green-footed dragon snake on the ground aside, letting the monster instantly He grinned in pain, and then in the next moment, he quickly moved the giant ax in his right hand, and with a bang, he instantly chopped in front of the head of the green-footed dragon snake!
"The mental state is good, but the brain seems to be a little broken."
The vertical pupils of the blue-footed dragon snake were instantly tighter than a needle. Nohir's The ax directly frightened its soul back, and also made it realize the current situation instantly. If it really hit its neck this time, it would immediately return to the Ten Thousand Beasts Garden and completely separate from this beautiful beast. The world says goodbye.
"Wait...wait! I surrender! I surrender! As long as you let me go, I am willing to give you all the wealth I have accumulated over the past 30 years! If you want my soul, Then I am willing to sign a contract with you! Please, sir! Let me go, I swear to the gods of the Ten Thousand Beasts Garden! "
The green-footed dragon snake endured the severe pain all over its body and tried its best to raise its head slightly, wanting to know whether the price it offered could impress this mysterious devil, but Nohir just mentioned it again without saying a word. The giant axe, the green-footed dragon snake closed its eyelids in despair, not daring to face the cruel fate that was coming next.
But what he didn't expect was that Nohill's ax didn't really fall. He first used the back of the battle ax to pick up the head of the green-footed dragon snake, so that the two could fight each other. One side looked up, the other side looked down at each other, and then waited until the green-footed dragon snake's spirit calmed down a little. Only then did Nohir slowly speak to the giant beast in front of him.
"As far as I know, your clan does not seem to have the habit of collecting gold and silver treasures, so as for the collection you mentioned in the past 30 years, even from the most optimistic perspective, I estimate that you can get it The only things that came out were some skeleton armor and other things left by other underground explorers, but I don’t like that kind of thing.”
“As for your soul, this proposal is very interesting. , but unfortunately, I am not actually a devil, so I currently do not have the ability to cast hell contracts on other creatures. Your suggestion is very tempting, but it still makes no sense to me.”
The Green-footed Dragon Snake opened its eyes. Nohir's words seemed to reveal a lot of information, giving it hope of survival again. It took the time to speak again.
"No matter what it is! No matter what it is! As long as I can do it! As long as you can let me go! I am willing to agree to you! Please tell me your request! I can swear to the gods of the Ten Thousand Beast Garden, I will definitely Try your best to realize your demands and wishes!"
Nohir raised his eyebrows in surprise.
“It’s really rare to see green-footed dragon snakes with such a strong desire to survive. Doesn’t the book say that your clan is extremely proud and would rather die than surrender? But in your case, why don’t I really have that? Did you discover this?"
The corner of Nohir's mouth unconsciously raised a somewhat evil smile, but the green-footed dragon snake dared not speak out, after all, its name is now in Nohir. On his hands, no matter how this guy insults it, it has to hold back. As for why the proud green-footed dragon snake is willing to constantly demean its dignity for the sake of life safety?
Well, there is nothing we can do about it. After all, it is only 34 years old this year. Among the species of green-footed dragon snakes, it has only just reached adulthood. There is still a lot of time left to enjoy. And the most important thing is that it has not completed the great mission of the Green-footed Dragon Snake clan to continue its descendants. Because of this, it cannot end its life so hastily! Even if you become begging for mercy for this, you won’t hesitate!
Nohill didn't know what the green-footed dragon snake was thinking, but he did have some questions that needed to be answered by this guy. It was indeed a good thing that this guy was so cooperative now.
"What's your name? Green-footed dragon snake."
Nohir put the battle ax on the monster's neck and asked in a friendly manner.
"...Gaspar."
"Gaspar? Well, depending on how you cooperate, I am willing to make a promise to you, as long as you can If you work hard to cooperate during the question and answer session and explain all my questions clearly, I will be willing to let you live. Among all my enemies, this kind of treatment is unprecedented. I have to say, you are really lucky. "< br>
Gaspar's throat twitched. Obviously, it didn't quite believe what Nohill said, but as of now, it had no choice but to follow this option.
"Hiss~ Please ask, sir, I will tell you everything."
Nohir nodded.
"Very good, then tell me now, apart from you, are there any other particularly difficult monsters entrenched here in this mine?"
Gaspar Its heart trembled, and it didn't understand why Nohir asked this question, but considering that it seemed that it didn't have the right to ask questions, it still answered directly and simply.
"No more, sir. This area used to be my territory. Apart from me, I will not allow any other creature that can threaten me to continue to occupy here. Now, in addition to many underground giant bats and underground lizards, there are many underground giant bats and underground lizards in this nest. , except for the giant underground spiders, there are no other medium-to-large species, and the only reason these little monsters can survive is that they can serve as a high-quality food source to fill my unsatisfied belly.”
Nohir nodded with some understanding.
'There are no other dangerous species. This is similar to what I guessed. The green-footed dragon snake has a very strong sense of territory. It is indeed unlikely that other dangerous creatures will appear in the area where they live. However, this The materials left in the cave are really rich, including bats, lizards, and even spiders. ''These monsters are all dangerous but definitely not deadly. Let's leave this area to them. This will not only exercise their group combat capabilities, but also allow them to practice independently. , how can we allocate limited resources relatively evenly in the future? Generally speaking, we can achieve more with one stone. '
Nohir focused his attention on the Green-footed Dragon Snake again. Gaspar's answer was very detailed. This detailed reply made him nod with satisfaction, but Then he continued to ask.
"You should know that the cave you occupy used to be a mine mined by underground gnomes. Mines like this are almost all over the surrounding areas. Do you know that in these areas, especially in the southeast, Where are there particularly powerful monsters?"
Gaspar also answered immediately.
“I do know a little bit of news about this, but I only know the details of the other two nests, which are only about ten kilometers away from here. There is an observer living in a mine in the west. Beholder, and another place was transformed into a stronghold by a group of tauren. There was not enough food in the cave for a while. I have been to those two places to look for food, but what is in the mine lairs in other directions? , I have no idea at all.”
Gaspar honestly revealed all the information he knew, and Nohir also understood that this was all the information Gaspar could provide. .
“The message is not particularly detailed, and there is no information about the direction I want to know, but you really didn’t play any tricks, which is good. You tried to deceive me at first, and this move almost made me lose my mind. You lost your life, but now your honesty has given you a chance to live.”
Nohir thrust the battle ax aside, walked to Gaspar's side, and violently set its bones, allowing some of the limbs that were not seriously damaged to regain their original functions.
"Okay, now you should have recovered some basic mobility. Now that you can walk - bang!"
Nohir clapped his hands lightly, The next moment the applause sounded, Mizola responded with a red teleportation light. Nohir pointed at the blue-footed dragon snake Gaspar, and then gestured to Gaspar. Next to Mizola.
“This is my attendant. Her true identity is a Kanbi from the Nine Hells, and she is also a highly skilled mage. So listen carefully, Gaspar, if you accept If you still want to survive after coming down, then just follow her instructions and sign an extremely unequal treaty that everyone loves to see. If you are really willing to use everything you have in exchange for your life safety, Then show it to me now."
Gaspar stood up tremblingly, not expecting that things would develop to this point in the end, even though it had already said before that it was willing to give everything in exchange. The survival of his own life, but when he really wanted to do it, he still subconsciously wanted to regret it.
However, just when this idea came up, less than a second passed, Gaspar's eyes involuntarily looked at the giant ax standing on the side. After remaining silent for three seconds, he made a very careful choice. In order to abide by the oath he had made before, he raised his uppermost, right forelimb and resolutely pressed his hand - paw print - on the contract.
“A wise choice.”
Nohill smiled happily. In this day and age, it is really not easy to find such a villain who cherishes his life and keeps his promise. , but now that the contract has been made, Gaspar will definitely not be able to make any more waste.
Now for this green-footed dragon snake, Nohill only needs to consider the last thing, which is how to place him in the future, and he has already had two ideas in this regard.
One is to keep the green-footed dragon snake here and live with the spawns who will move here soon. The advantage of this option is that it can allow Gaspar to help them. By gaining a foothold here, it can also serve as an alternative eye to help you monitor and control these vampire spawns, preventing them from losing control if they are left unattended.
However, there are also disadvantages. The main reason is that the trauma Gaspar suffered is a bit serious. Considering the various injuries all over his body, even with the help of magical healing skills, this guy will not be able to survive for more than a week or two. It is absolutely impossible to regain combat effectiveness.
Coincidentally, this period of time happened to be the time when the spawns first adapted to the Underdark and struggled to survive in this strange environment. The most difficult period left Gaspar here. It will not bring any help to the spawns. On the contrary, at least for the initial period of time, it will become a burden for them. For this reason, Nohir is not inclined to this choice.
As for another option, that is to give it to King Snitik. The Green-footed Dragon Snake is an ancient weapon specially designed by the storm giants in ancient times to deal with dragons. An adult Green-footed Dragon Snake. Its actual combat power is actually comparable to that of a white dragon of the same age, and even far better than it in terms of IQ.
If such a powerful green-footed dragon snake is given to King Snitik, such a generous gift will definitely bring the relationship between the underground dwarves and their side as close as possible. At the same time, This kind of generous behavior can also show the strength and magnanimity of Nohill. People will know what the name Nohill means. This generous gift will definitely receive rich returns and will surely make this alliance Become more stable.
Considering from this perspective, Nohill feels that the second idea is undoubtedly better.
Although the Green-footed Dragon Snake is precious and considered powerful among ordinary monsters, if Nohir really wants to find a qualified security guard for these spawns, then there is no need for him to stick to such a monster. After all, this is a dark place. In this area, all kinds of monsters are flying all over the place. As long as Nohir is given some time, he will definitely be able to find a guardian that is far more suitable than the Green-footed Dragon Snake.
'...Forget it, just leave it here for now. After finishing those chores, I will consider the specific implementation process. As for the period when I am busy again, Gaspar Leave it to Mizola to guard and take care of first. ’
Nohir shook his head, temporarily deciding the direction of Gaspar’s future destiny, but besides these things, he still had more things waiting to be solved and dealt with.
Nohir came out of the mine and announced directly to Asdalen and the others that he had conquered the most powerful monster in the lair, allowing them to screen out a large number of people as quickly as possible. If he came to settle here, he would naturally fly quickly in the direction of another mine.
After that, it took less than five minutes for Nohill to successfully arrive at another abandoned mine lair, and in this abandoned mine, he also successfully saw the people occupying this abandoned mine. What kind of monster is in the cave?
