The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

Chapter 344 Herbal Baked Eggs (Two chapters in one)

At this time, Ryan had just transformed the forked sword in his hand back into the shape of an ordinary two-handed greatsword.

Just now, he used all his strength to perform the top-level secret technique "Shadow Step" and appeared in front of the two-headed lava dog at the tail of the caravan at lightning speed. The greatsword in his hand suddenly forked, and two silver lights flashed, and it pierced directly into the opponent's two heads.

The whole set of movements is so fast that it takes no more than 0.3 seconds.

But it contains the "Shadow Step", "Metal Transfiguration", "Sharpness" and the forked sword that imitates the "armor-piercing attack" technique of the lance.

Therefore, this jaw-dropping effect is achieved.

A two-headed lava dog whose strength was comparable to that of a second-level liquefied wizard, only felt a flash before his eyes, and before he could react, he was killed by Ryan's single blow!

Behind the two-headed lava dog, the few ordinary lava dogs were still standing there in a daze, a little confused about the situation.

"Roar!!!"

But the other two-headed lava dog that attacked from the left side of the caravan roared immediately when it saw its partner being killed.

Although it felt that the human was very strong, at this moment, anger had already filled its mind.

"boom!!!"

As flames surged on its huge body, which was comparable to that of a wild bull, a circular shock wave blasted in all directions. Several caravan guards who came too close were instantly flung away. At the same time, while still in mid-air, the whole body was burning with flames!

"Ah! Ah!"

Screams were heard immediately, and the entire caravan began to panic.

"court death!"

The opponent's indiscriminate group attack made Ryan's eyes focus, leaving seven or eight afterimages along the way. In an instant, he arrived several meters in front of the second two-headed lava dog.

"Chi!!"

But this time the opponent was well prepared. Facing Ryan's extremely fast attack, the two-headed lava dog quickly opened its two bloody mouths and spit, actually displaying two different fire talents.

One of the dog heads spewed out a long fire snake, while the other dog head blasted out a giant fireball that was larger than a washbasin.

The fire snakes and fireballs rushed towards Ryan at such a fast speed that they arrived in the blink of an eye!

"Be careful! Get out of the way!" Melita shouted immediately.

Before this, the white-robed witch Melita did not see how Ryan killed the first two-headed lava dog.

Because her attention at that time was focused on the second two-headed lava dog on the left.

But this time, she saw it clearly.

No, it should be said that although she still couldn't see clearly and could only see a series of afterimages of Ryan, she could clearly see Ryan's super fast speed.

But Ryan didn't slow down at all. He still drew a white straight line and rushed towards the opponent without any intention of dodging.

Under Melita's horrified gaze.

Suddenly, three dark silver kite-shaped shields formed on Ryan's body surface, and they were quickly stacked together and pointed directly in front of him.

At the same time, fireballs and fire snakes also hit Ryan.

"Boom! Boom!!"

The giant fireballs and fire snakes instantly shattered two kite-shaped shields, but when it came to the third one, it seemed that there was not enough power left. Although it still broke the shield, the speed was much slower.

The remaining flames were crushed by a huge silver hand!
In an instant, Ryan was several meters in front of the two-headed lava dog.

"Shh!"

Suddenly, two identical figures of Ryan appeared, but one was heading left and the other was heading right. Almost at the same time, two silver arcs flashed across the necks of the two-headed lava dog.

Melita blinked, and the next second, she found Ryan standing in front of the two-headed lava dog, and seemed to be doing nothing!
But soon, she realized that it was not her eyes that were dazzled.

"Puff! Puff!"

Only two sounds of heavy objects falling to the ground were heard in succession!
Everyone took a closer look!
Good fellow! The two-headed lava dog had now become a headless lava dog. Dark red blood fountains were gushing out from its two necks. Its huge body, which was comparable to that of a wild bull, was shaking from side to side and fell down helplessly.

Since the other party was not a dragonborn, Ryan naturally would not take a bath.

He gave the two-handed sword in his hand a slight shake, and the sword became as smooth and clean as new again.

The two groups of ordinary lava dogs that were planning to attack, when they saw that their leaders were killed, immediately fled in panic with their tails between their legs.

Ryan naturally disdained to chase after this ordinary lava dog that posed no threat at all.

"What kind of strength level is this!"

"That's amazing!" Melita murmured excitedly.

"Moreover, what the other party just performed was actually a rare metal-based witchcraft!"

Melita naturally saw the changes in the weapon in Ryan's hand, as well as the faint fluctuations of metallic energy particles when the silver light flashed by.

You know, metal wizards are even rarer than ice wizards like her.

Suddenly, Melita thought of something. She looked at the blizzard element that she had just summoned beside her, and she felt like crying but had no tears!
"Oh my God! I wasted a precious ice core!" she said bitterly.

A year's work has been in vain!

This is the trump card she treasured for herself.

The male wizard who had already retreated to the caravan guards, ready to take advantage of the chaos to evacuate at any time, was now looking at the fallen two-headed lava dog in front of him with a dumbfounded look on his face.

He looked at the tall and burly figure again.

In an instant, all the dirty thoughts in my mind disappeared.

I want to be a good person!

At this time, the gray-white wizard robe on Ryan's body had been damaged, revealing a set of silver mithril carved plate armor.

The mysterious patterns and the shiny silver armor give people a mysterious feeling.

Although Melita recognized the material of the other party's armor at the first time, it was actually mithril, and she was even more shocked!
"Not only is he powerful, he's also extremely wealthy!"

"And if the other party has an official background in the empire, then...

Suddenly, Melita thought of something.

This time she received an emergency notice from the academy, summoning combatants to return to Winterhold Academy and organize defense.

According to the content of the message, a huge ancestor dragon named Corasius suddenly appeared in the north.

Like the other ancestor dragons, the other party is brutal by nature. It has gathered a large number of followers and is sweeping across the north.

Her mentor, who was also the dean of Winterhold College, had been seriously injured in the battle with Corasius a few days ago.

After seeing Ryan's amazing melee ability, Melita couldn't help but have an idea.

If the wizards of the academy had someone like Ryan who was extremely strong in close combat to defend the front when they were fighting the proto-dragon, they would only need to continue casting witchcraft attacks from the back.

In that case, defeating the proto-dragon should be easy, right?
After the fat man Giannis came to his senses, he walked quickly to Ryan with his fat body and said:

"Lord Ryan, this time it's all thanks to you. On behalf of the Cameron Caravan, I would like to express my gratitude to you. These gold coins..."

Giannis said as he waved his hand, and a guard behind him walked forward holding a heavy wooden box.

"No need, it's just a handy thing. Besides, I'm riding a flying mount this time, so it's not convenient to carry the box." Ryan refused with a smile.

For Ryan at the moment, unless the starting amount of gold coins is 10,000, it may still have some meaning to him.

"You..." Fatty Giannis seemed still hesitant.

"Go and treat the wounded quickly. We'd better hurry up and leave the Hammerfall Tunnel." Ryan stepped forward and patted Giannis on the shoulder and said.

"Yes, Master Ryan!"

"Sir Ryan, please forgive me for being so presumptuous, but I want to tell you something." After Giannis left, Melita, who had been thinking for a long time, walked forward and said.

"Oh? Lady Melita, if you have anything to say, just tell me." Ryan looked at the white-robed witch in front of him and said with a smile.

He had no aversion to Melita.

In the battle just now, Ryan saw clearly that the opponent was also fighting hard. Although, he was unable to use his skills in the end, his character was evident.

Much better than those two guys.

"It's like this, I would like to ask Lord Ryan for a favor."

"As a reward, I can provide you with a detailed clue of the improved metal-based witchcraft 'Cutting Net'."

After hearing the first half of Melita's words, Ryan was going to refuse. He came here to find Lagre and didn't have the time or the energy to help others too much.

However, when Ryan heard the words "metal witchcraft", he raised his eyebrows.

Especially the name of this witchcraft, 'Cutting Net', which sounds like an offensive metal witchcraft, which makes Ryan quite interested.

After all, the metal-related witchcraft he currently possessed, even with the zero-level 'Sharpness', was only three, namely the innate witchcraft 'Metal Transfiguration' and the first-level defensive witchcraft 'Metal Barrier'.

It would be great if I could get a new offensive witchcraft.

However, Ryan looked around and said to Melita, "Sir Melita, we can talk about the help you need from me, but not now, wait until we leave the Hammerfall Tunnel, okay?"

"That's great, of course." What Melita was worried about was that Lord Ryan would directly refuse.

Judging from the other party's appearance now, he should be quite interested in the metal witchcraft that I just mentioned.

The subsequent journey was much smoother. Although lava snakes continued to emerge from the tunnel, they were easily dispatched by Ryan and became food for Blood Feather.

When he reached the exit, Xueyu's stomach was already a little bloated.

After one hour.

At the other end of the Hammerfall Tunnel, dozens of Cameroon caravan vehicles were being counted and resting.

Melita, holding an amber flask, walked over to Ryan and Anna and said with a smile:

"Lord Ryan, Miss Anna, this is the specialty of our Winterhold Academy, 'Goldthorn Honey Tea'. It has a refreshing taste and is refreshing. It is well received by wizards. Would you like to try it?"

Anna's beautiful eyes lit up. If it was an alcoholic beverage, she might not like it, but tea was different. Anna looked at Ryan with her beautiful eyes.

"Okay, thank you, Ms. Melita." Ryan responded with a smile.

Poisoning? Ryan wasn't worried. Don't forget his enhanced poison resistance from Breaking Bad.

If all else fails, he can transform into a dragon man and become immune to low-level poisons.

Of course, the most important thing is that after experiencing the battle, he did not think that Melita in front of him had any motive to poison.

Melita poured a glass for Ryan and Anna respectively.

"Good tea!" Ryan savored it carefully.

This tea with goldenthorn added tastes sweet, but also has a refreshing feeling like beer, and seems to have a slight effect of boosting mental strength. No wonder it is so well received by wizards.

"It's really delicious. I like it very much, Lady Melita." Anna took a sip and her beautiful eyes lit up.

"As long as the two adults like it."

"Uh, Melita, you can just call me Anna. As for Ryan, he is indeed an adult." Anna covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Lord Ryan is from the Empire?"

Ryan shook his head helplessly at Anna's act of revealing her true identity.

He finally understood why Anna's aunt, Ms. De Lanna, was so worried that Anna would be abducted. She was really too naive.

"Melita, I do work for the Empire, but I cannot tell you the details."

"No wonder the Hammerfell defenders opened the gate for you alone. I had this guess at the time." Melita said with a smile.

"By the way, Ms. Melita, can you please tell me in detail the task you want me to help with? I will be on my way soon."

"Of course, Lord Ryan." Melita nodded with a look of joy on her face.

"It's like this, a proto-dragon appeared in the north, named..." Melita introduced while observing Ryan's expression.

She saw a look of surprise on Ryan's face, and immediately thought to herself, 'Finally he's moved.'

In fact, Ryan was surprised that it was such a coincidence. The other party wanted to ask him for help to kill the proto-dragon named Colasius together.

You know, he had originally planned to find out the strength of the Proto-Dragon after finding Lagre.

After all, he needs to absorb new dragon genes so that the concentration of dragon blood can be further increased.

This is related to his legendary profession, and its importance is self-evident.

"As for the reward, I just saw that you seem to be a metal wizard. And I happen to know the former residence of a deceased metal wizard in the North, a second-level liquefied wizard nicknamed 'Cutter'."

"According to reliable information, the opponent died suddenly when he was trying to crystallize. Therefore, his signature sorcery, the 'Cutting Net' that he improved upon, should have been preserved."

Hearing this, the smile on Ryan's face gradually faded.

He originally thought that Melita had the metal magic 'Cutting Net' in her hands, but after all this time, she only knew a piece of information.

Moreover, even though we knew the location, the other party still didn’t go to get it. Obviously there must be a problem here!

"I have a question."

"Sir Melita, since this metal witchcraft is so rare and has been improved, it must be worth a lot of money. Why didn't you take it?" Ryan looked into Melita's eyes and said in a deep voice.

"That's because their residence is in the Howling Fjord, the easternmost part of the Howling Tundra. I went there some time ago and found that the place had already been occupied by the Thick-Shelled Lobster Tribe of the Fjord."

"The enemy is numerous, and their thick shells have high defensive power. It is difficult for me to reach the target location with my combat power. However, with your strength, these are not a problem."

"So, Master Melita, I understand what you mean. You want me to help you fight against a Proto-Dragon whose strength is between the peak of Legendary and Epic levels. The reward is a specific clue of Metal-related witchcraft. Is that right?"

Hearing Ryan's words, Melita's pretty face immediately showed embarrassment.

At this moment, Melita calmed down and thought about it, and realized that the transaction conditions she proposed were a bit too much.

"Lord Ryan, I'm really sorry, but this seems to be the only thing I can show you and that you like." Melita explained with a little embarrassment.

After all, the risks Ryan has to take are greater than the gains.

"Lord Ren, to show my sincerity, I am willing to accompany you to the Howling Fjord."

"Of course, if you still find it unacceptable, I understand. Thank you again for your help in the Hammerfall Tunnel." Melita bowed slightly towards Ryan and said.

"No, I agree!" Ryan waved his hand and said.

"Hmm?" Melita stared at Ryan with her beautiful eyes wide open, stunned for a moment.

You actually agreed?
But it's obviously not equal.

this.
For a moment, Melita couldn't understand why.

However, she was naturally overjoyed when she heard the news. She immediately came to her senses and thanked Ryan:
"Thank you, Master Ren! That's really great!"

"By the way, Lord Ryan, Miss Anna, please allow me to make a simple campfire dinner for you two as a thank you." The delighted Melita took the initiative to say.

"Also, this is my homemade eggnog, you two can try it."

"Thank you, Ms. Melita." Ryan and Anna couldn't help but smile at each other and nodded at Melita.

After all, no matter how busy you are, you still have to eat dinner.

As the bonfire slowly rose.

Melita skillfully took out some ingredients and a small box containing a lot of herbs and more than ten bird eggs the size of eggs of some kind.

"I don't have much raw materials prepared today, so I can only make herbal baked eggs for you two."

A few minutes later, Ryan took a pancake from his previous life and started eating it.

Not to mention, it tastes really good.

For a moment, Ryan couldn't help but think of one thing.

After I change my job to the legendary class 'Dragon Vein Wizard', maybe I can consider becoming a chef as my next job.

At least, you won’t treat your stomach badly.

But a portion of herbal baked egg was naturally too little for Ryan's appetite.

The leader of the Cameron caravan, the fat Giannis, was a connoisseur of food judging by his body shape. He had been keeping an eye on the adults.

Seeing that Ryan seemed to be still unsatisfied, he immediately brought over the carefully selected grilled salmon and lamb chops.

After some chatting, Melita also learned that the destination of Ryan and Anna's trip was also the Howling Tundra, and Winterhold College was just at the northernmost part of the tundra, so it was quite convenient.

After enjoying dinner, Ryan took the initiative to say:

"If Ms. Melita goes to the North"

Ryan wanted to offer to give the other person a ride, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.

Because he suddenly thought that although there was no problem for Xueyu to carry one more woman, it would easily cause Anna to misunderstand.

"Then let's part ways now."

Ok?
In Melita's expectant eyes, she heard such an abrupt turn of events!
This was really disappointing to her.

Originally she thought Ryan was inviting her to ride on the Hippogryph!

For such a strong hippogryph, it should be no problem for it to carry one more person, right?

"Puchi! Ryan, why don't you let Melita ride along?" Anna couldn't help but laugh after hearing what Ryan said.

"Uh okay!"

Ryan transformed the hardened adamantium in his hand into a metal chair with hooks, and said to Melita: "Then, Your Excellency Melita, I will add a chair under the horned beast, and you can sit there."

At this time, Melita looked at Ryan with a somewhat speechless look.

unacceptable!

In order to avoid her disturbing their world of two, he actually let her sit down alone.

"Ryan, why don't you just let Melita sit behind you? Why make things so complicated?!" Anna pulled Ryan's clothes and persuaded him.

"Uh"

This is just because I’m afraid you’ll misunderstand, Ryan thought.

Since Anna didn't mind, he naturally wouldn't mind a beautiful wizard sitting behind him.

"Ms. Anna, thank you for your righteous words." Melita quickly walked to Anna's side, took Anna's hand, and spoke kindly.

"Actually, Ryan is a very nice person." Anna was a little uncomfortable with the other person's familiarity.

After bidding farewell to the Cameron caravan, with Melita sitting behind him, Ryan controlled the Blood Feather, flapped its wings and flew high, heading directly for the Beverly Pass in the Caswith Province.

As it took off, the body of the Hippogryph rose and fell, forcing Melita to hold onto Ryan's waist.

It seemed that because it was her first time riding a flying mount, Melita was still a little nervous and uncomfortable.

Every time the Bloodfeather Hippogryph flapped its wings, Melita would sometimes press her chest against Ryan's back, and sometimes keep a certain distance between them.

This made Ryan feel uncomfortable.

You said it’s okay for you to stay close to me all the time, or it’s better to keep a distance between you and me.

But sometimes I get close.
Ryan could clearly feel the pressure from behind.
"Is this for a ride?"

"I'm afraid you're not here to tease me, are you?"

Soon, Ryan felt a little hot.
Stand at attention!
Like a chain reaction, Anna, who was sitting in Ryan's arms, blushed immediately.

She had experienced this feeling last time.

This time, how could she not know what that thing was?
Perhaps, if it was just her and Ryan, Anna wouldn't be so shy.

After all, she had the experience last time, so she could endure it a little better.

But this time there are three people
After a while, Anna's face flushed and she leaned softly in Ryan's arms, but Ryan didn't feel very happy at this time.
Carrying two people at the same time is actually a torment.

I can't have sex with Anna in front of strangers.
Besides, herbal baked eggs seem to be very nutritious.
Ryan immediately regretted it.
