A few minutes later, with a clanging sound, a staff member belonging to the Archaeologists Association suddenly knelt on the ground as if he was exhausted, and the long knife in his hand slipped to the ground, breaking the suffocating silence.

"I'm still alive...still alive..."

The NPC orc girl who was responsible for connecting with several small mercenary groups, including the Beautiful Girl Mercenary Group, groaned, suddenly shrank into a ball with her head in her hands, and cried out in tears: "I'm not dead! I'm not dead.

Being eaten by a dragon! I...wuwuwuwu..."

She buried her head between her knees. It was difficult to say even half a complete sentence, and her shoulders, which were not very thin, kept shaking.

This is not difficult to understand, and there is nothing to be ashamed of. After all, for this young orc girl, the short period of time when she was completely unable to control her life was really terrifying.

Her strength is only at the middle level. The orc girl who has been working as a civil servant at the Golden City Branch of the Archaeologists Association has never seen such a battle before. She was able to pick up the weapon without crying when Fimiguel swooped down in anger.

Not peeing her pants was already considered a strong character in her mind, but when the shadow of death faded away, she would naturally become afraid involuntarily for the rest of her life, and then she would be swallowed up by a belated but late-arriving wave of fear.

Similar to her reaction, there were two other coordinators belonging to the Archaeologists Association, plus one of Hiran's NPC partners, a handsome and powerful high-level ranger who cried loudly and didn't notice her at all.

The captain's eyes were frequently scanning me, and if nothing else happened, I wouldn't have a good time in the future.

Others seemed relatively calm. Although there were many people with livid faces, trembling legs, and holding their ribs and gasping for breath, there were not many who were wiping away tears and crying. Among them, Zordon Nightcrawler

The two immortal NPCs, Fluorite and Dongxue, have lived long enough. Although they have never experienced such battles, they have experienced strong winds and waves, so their moods are relatively stable. As for the others...

They are basically players, so naturally they will not be scared to the point of crying.

Yaya, Jadeka, Wang Badan and Anthony were NPCs, but since Mo Tan and Ji Xiaoge recognized Fimiguel immediately, they were not too frightened.

Not only that, after the burst of "clang" broke the silence, the atmosphere of the scene changed from the dead silence before and quickly became heated. Even those members of the 17th Special Forces Group who were quite professional could not help but

I had a few words with my partner about the incident just now.

Meet the dragon!

Attacked by a dragon!

Meet the top ten bosses on the combat power list!

The top ten bosses on the combat power list are actually dragons!

Saved from an evil dragon by the boss who is a dragon!

In less than ten minutes, such an explosive amount of information made it difficult for even autistic people to control their emotions and start chatting with their friends around them.

Everyone was happy to discuss and exchange similar topics about the power of the blue dragon and Christina's identity, and Lorelai did not ask them to be serious, because under the current situation, those who are too calm appear to be more serious.

strangeness.

For example——

"Uh, three ladies."

Zordon strode up to Kasena, Mika and Lucie, who had unexpectedly returned to the team at some point, and showed a smile that was three parts fearful, three parts complicated, three parts twisted and one part confused.

He asked the three calm-faced girls in front of him: "I wonder what happened just now..."

"Everything just happened was an illusion, and everything you saw was not real."

Lucie interrupted Zordon cleanly and looked at the latter unblinkingly with her eyes that showed no obvious emotional fluctuations: "If we explain it this way? You won't believe it, right?"

Zordon was stunned for a moment, and after being silent for a while, he nodded with a wry smile and answered honestly: "Huh? I don't believe it."

"It really doesn't work..."

Lucie sighed and curled her lips.

"impossible."

"It definitely won't work!"

Next to them, Mika and Kasena rolled their eyes at the same time, expressing helplessness towards this friend whose brain circuit seemed to be a little different from ordinary people.

"Well, it doesn't cost anything to try anyway."

Lucie shrugged and said to Zordon, who looked a little worried in front of him: "Actually, our companion has a strange disease."

Zordon was slightly stunned: "Strange disease?"

Lucie nodded vigorously and said in a serious voice: "Occasionally, it turns into that weird disease that takes the form of a big lizard."

Zordon: "..."

"We have been careful to hide this secret because we are afraid that she will be discriminated against because of her intermittent weight gain and therefore not be able to find a boyfriend."

Lucie ignored Zordon's "Are you kidding me?" expression and continued: "As a result, we happened to encounter that evil dragon attacking your Archaeologists Association today? Our sisters are kind-hearted and have to be reconciled in the end.

So, regardless of his own marriage, he transformed into a helper and lured the evil dragon away."

Zordon was confused again and exclaimed: "Attack our Archaeologists Association? Why! I see that dragon..."

"Right? That dragon is obviously here for the things you collected."

Lucie had no intention of giving up the initiative in the conversation to Zordon, and said like a barrage of words: "If you think about it carefully, you will know? You are searching for things from the Sun Dynasty. What is the relationship between the Sun Dynasty and the Dragon Clan, you archaeologist?

Don’t the veteran cadres of the association know this? Look at the size of that evil dragon. It looks like the kind of old dragon that has lived for a long time. But after you have passed here, you see the relics of these enemies? You must want to smash them.

Are you right?"

Zordon scratched his thick silver hair: "Huh? It does seem a bit..."

"If our good sisters hadn't made a prompt decision? They immediately diverted the evil dragon's attention by casting hormones. Now, everyone would have been burned into glass together with the old things of the Sun Dynasty. Don't you think so?"

Lucie stared at Zordon with her penetrating eyes.

"Ah, well, I dare you to ask what hormones are..."

"So the fact is that your Archaeologists Association attracted hatred because of its insufficient planning, which almost caused everyone present to attack. However, in order to protect everyone, my sister did not hesitate to expose her illness and risked the possibility that she would not be able to marry in the future.

The risk has attracted the evil dragon, and now it is in a state of emergency, don't you think?"

"Well……"

"This responsibility should be borne by the Archaeologists Association, don't you think?"

"this……"

"So I have to pay more."

Lucie stared intensely at Zordon Nightcrawler, who seemed to be almost lame, and smiled: "Are you right?"

"..."

After a brief silence, Zordon nodded vigorously and laughed: "Yes, I need to add more money. How much do you think is appropriate?"

"We'll talk about how much we add later. We're going to find Corliss now."

Lucie nodded with satisfaction, stood up on tiptoes and patted Zordon's shoulder: "You just go back first, the Golden City Branch of the Archaeologists Association can't escape anyway, don't you agree?"

After saying that, he, Kasena, and Mika turned around and left, running in the direction where Christina and Fimiguel disappeared.

"The Golden City Branch of the Archaeologists Association welcomes the four ladies to visit us at any time."

Zordon didn't try to persuade them to stay, and he didn't even say polite words like "Guys, take care of your safety." He just bowed deeply to the backs of the three of them.

Then……

"gentlemen."

Jadka, who appeared beside Zordon at some unknown time, stroked his beard and whispered in a fairy-like voice: "Our Wangwang team will withdraw now."

Zordon was stunned again: "Do you still want to go to the kobold settlement first? The current situation is far from safe. Why not return to the Golden City with everyone first..."

"Well, going to the kobold settlement is just one aspect of it."

Jadeka interrupted Zordon's words kindly, and said with a wry smile on his old face: "There is another reason, that is, the guy from the Viridian Brigade feels that our Wangwang adventurer team seems to have a close friendship with those girls.

, We, Brother Mo, have been looking for us since just now. This matter was not explained clearly for a while, plus there are so many of them, we... well, you understand."

Zordon looked at Jadeka with some amusement: "Avoid the limelight?"

"Yes, avoid the limelight, avoid the limelight."

The old mage nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "The little half-orc girl in our team, I mean the one with wings and particularly long hair, is an old friend of those girls, but she was also shocked by what happened today.

So if we have time, we may go to those people to understand the situation in the past two days, and then return to the Golden City after we understand what is going on, so that we can explain to the little Thorny Wolf master who likes to get to the bottom of things.

no."

Seeing Jadeka's sincere expression and his confused mind, Zordon stopped insisting and nodded simply: "Okay, let's meet later in the Golden City. I will go and talk to Mr. Little Thorn Wolf.

.”

"Thank you, Lord Zordon."

The old mage, who spoke 30% truth and 70% falsehood, laughed, and then trotted away. After a while, he finally got rid of the little thorn wolf (Ji Xiaoge asked Zhou Lan to trip him up with the topic of Cordoba)

The barking team also left.

…

ten minutes later

"Not a kobold settlement."

Fluorite limped up to Zordon, who was leading people to count the cultural relics, and lowered his voice and said, "The Wangwang adventurer team turned around and went in another direction after leaving."
