Chapter 125: Could it be a boomerang?
The four black dragons were so powerful when they came, and they were also so powerful when they left.
Except for those who have the [Dark Vision] specialty, no one has ever seen a black dragon with its tail hanging down.
Compared to the stupid and beastly white dragons, black dragons are more intelligent and cunning.
When they face weak humanoid creatures, they will show their viciousness to the fullest, such as eating the opponent’s limbs piece by piece and forcing the opponent to tell them where the treasure is.
Once they encounter an enemy that is not easy to deal with, they will immediately become cowardly without hesitation like now.
Don’t think they will really run away like this.
Until their ominous black figures disappeared in the night sky, several big bosses suddenly screamed: “Ah! My money!”
No way! No way! There are still people who think that black dragons rob money by using their huge claws to pick up gold coins one by one?
A special skill of the dragons in this world, [Treasure Magic], directly sucks away all the coins it sees in one breath like a vacuum cleaner.
If you can’t beat them, they will run away, and when they run away, they will take your things. This is the most disgusting thing about the local dragons.
Four black dragons visited the vaults of three banks in half of the city and seven casinos of all sizes in a whirlwind manner. According to the official figures announced the next day, the direct loss exceeded 1.8 million gold coins, and the indirect economic loss exceeded 5 million.
For a time, the entire Adventurer’s Guild and Mercenary Guild went crazy.
“Damn it! How could there be a black dragon in this place?”
“When did it come? Why didn’t the Adventurer’s Guild have a single eyewitness report?”
“Severe punishment! Must be severe punishment! Find the person responsible immediately!”
For such a big thing, someone must be found to take the blame.
At the same time, the prestige of the Kingdom of Sweetland must be restored. After all, as a place called a neutral country, but actually a den of money, the first thing to let dignitaries and wealthy people from all countries come here for entertainment is safety.
If someone wins money in the casino, he will be killed as soon as he steps out of the door, and even if the money is robbed, who will come to gamble here in the future?
This situation is a devastating blow to the reputation of the entire kingdom.
The city of Luense immediately sent envoys everywhere to comfort the frightened dignitaries, including the three disciples of Tesla Master who helped to scare away the black dragon last night.
“I am very sorry! Last night, our city was not well protected and disturbed all the distinguished guests. To express our apology, the guests will have free food and accommodation here for the next week, and we will provide you with XXX casino vouchers worth 500 gold coins, and…” The envoy obviously did his homework and gave a compensation of about three times what Downs had spent here before.
This kind of sincerity is hard for anyone to find fault with.
But the next step, the envoy, was a bit tentative.
“Excuse me, does Mr. Quixote know the origin of these black dragons?”
Before Downs could speak, Sanders stepped forward and spit saliva at him: “What do you mean? Do you want to slander Mr. Quixote, the great hero of Lamanque City and the rising star of the Cervantes Kingdom?”
Seeing that Downs was so confident, the envoy seemed to shrink back half a step: “No, we don’t mean that. It’s just that Mr. Tesla is knowledgeable, we are just collecting information from many sources to see if we can find some clues. After all, there is no dragon nest within 300 miles around our city.”
“Humph! Unlucky!” Downs did not comment, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and left with his two junior brothers. The reason is also very sufficient. The city of Luense is in a mess, and it is meaningless to stay here. In fact, this is also the practice of most dignitaries. They arrange transportation to leave this severely damaged city as soon as possible.
As soon as Downs left, the preliminary investigation results were handed over to Count Runsay’s desk.
As expected, with the money in place, the efficiency of the investigation was very fast.
“What? Dozens of different kinds of flying dragons were found to have migrated out of the Fulong Mountains?”
Count Runsay and the bankers all suddenly realized a problem – this riot might have been caused by the great wizard who lived in the Fulong Mountains.
The known achievements of the great wizard Tesla are as follows:
Killed an adult white dragon!
Killed a demon lord of Batto Hell!
Killed or tamed a group of eye demons!
Killed the great lich Brutus!
Very impressive achievements, right?
Anyone who has a little knowledge of biology and the wild, or a ranger or druid with rich experience in the wild, can come to a consistent conclusion – when a more powerful existence appears in a certain place, fearing its fierce power, the weak existences around will instinctively choose to migrate and stay away from that powerful threat.
And this powerful existence can be an extremely terrifying demon beast, or it can be… an unparalleled strong man, such as a legendary wizard!
After a little discussion, the boss of Sweetland can basically determine that it was Master Tesla who scared the dragons in the Fulong Mountains to migrate out.
The Fulong Mountains can be said to have become unworthy of their name since then!
A large number of colorful dragons of different colors lost their original territories and had to find new territories for themselves to live and reproduce.
Regardless of the species, determining a new territory after migration is a very bloody and cruel process, not to mention the dragons at almost the top of the food chain, which means a reshuffle of the entire food chain in the area.
It is difficult for humans and dragons to coexist.
If there is a dragon in a human settlement area that regards that place as its territory, it may be better if it is a white dragon with strong animality and only likes to eat. In ancient times, there were several regions that relied on regular tribute of cattle and sheep to the white dragon and even obtained the blessing of the white dragon.
The problem is that you can’t negotiate with black dragons!
These bastard dragons are the epitome of wanting everything, money, life, and food.
Even if you give a black dragon the treasury of all human countries, it is impossible to satisfy its greed.
“How about we consider forming a few master teams to kill the black dragons?”
“Idiot! There are four black dragons in the same family, not to mention how terrible their cooperation is. Even if we succeed in killing three and let one go, our entire kingdom will never have a peaceful life in the future.”
The disgusting thing about dragons is their high mobility. Unless you perfectly limit the dragon’s activity space with giant traps, otherwise they will run away if they can’t beat them, and then find opportunities to burn, kill, and rob after running away, which will definitely disgust you to death easily.
“Wait! I thought of a possibility–” Earl Runse’s eyes flashed with a sinister light: “Could it be that Master Tesla is short of money, and not only do we not give him money, but we also want to borrow money from him at high interest rates, which angered the master, so he drove all the dragons out of the Fulong Mountains and deliberately came to harm us?”
It would have been better if the earl didn’t say it, but once he said it, everyone really felt that it was the smell.
Ahem!
Whether it’s worldly affairs or fate, sometimes it’s really a boomerang.
Downs’s actions may have succeeded, but they also failed.
They don’t have evidence, at least no direct evidence, but in the end, this matter was blamed on their master Ryan!
