Red Dragon has magic

Chapter 164 The Player in the Bone
There was no corridor in front of us, but a spiral staircase going vertically downwards.

Although there was no black pudding, there was green slime. This acidic slime could devour flesh and organic matter, and even dissolve metal. However, Tassera took care of it all with a fire arrow.

Tassela was walking in front now, fearing that Leon would lead the way and solve the puzzle violently. You know, she had never solved any puzzle. She no longer expected that any puzzle would be difficult for Leon, and then she would reluctantly ask her to help, and finally show her divine power in front of everyone.

"Honestly, aren't you afraid that you will destroy those chess pieces and fail to solve the puzzle according to the dungeon designer's ideas, and the last door won't be opened?" Tassera asked while observing carefully. After all, if there is one piece of green slime, there will be a second piece, and even the black pudding may appear again.

"Because I seem to have played a similar game before and was able to complete it that way." Leon thought for a moment and said, "Since you said those chess pieces are small golems, they must be meant for people to attack, otherwise they wouldn't have spent so much effort to make so many small golems..."

Leon took a breath and said, "A war can be won by careful planning, or it can be won by accumulating strength and then crushing it."

Hearing this, Tassela nodded slightly and said, "It seems that you have thought about it, not just acted rashly without thinking."

Leon smiled politely rather than awkwardly, and said pretentiously: "Make bold assumptions and verify them carefully. Don't limit yourself. Don't restrict yourself. There is more than one way to solve a problem. If you want to become stronger, you can't always follow the path of others. You must find your own way."

Tassela didn't say anything, lost in thought for a rare moment.

Leon smiled and thought that whether he could do it or not was one thing, but he could always say a lot of wise sayings. After all, he grew up soaking in "chicken soup".

Walking out of the spiral staircase, another room appeared.

It was a small room. As Leon and Tassela walked in, the door to the outside was immediately closed.

Leon tried to push it, but it didn't work, so he prepared to draw out the Blade of Cataclysm.

"Don't worry about it... As long as we pass this level, it will open naturally." Tassera said, walking to the counter in the middle of the room.

Leon followed and walked forward, only to see several jars on the counter. Different kinds of monsters were painted on the jars, and there was a line of words written in front of each jar.

"The key was not taken by the witch."

"Everyone bullies me. I am an old woman and I am not going to live any longer."

"The key was lost during the night."

"I didn't steal anything, I didn't take the gold coins."

“It rained heavily the day the key was lost.”

……

Leon looked at Tassela and was about to speak when he saw Tassela raise her hand and hold it up to stop him from speaking.

"Don't talk, leave this level to me." Tassela said. She finally found an opportunity to solve the mystery.

Leon shrugged his shoulders, didn't say anything about his promise, and walked around.

If he were to encounter a fight, this room would barely allow him to revert to dragon form, but he wouldn't be able to swing his sword, and could only use his fangs and claws.

On this side, Tassela picked up one jar, then another, and said to herself: "The key must be hidden in these jars. The weight of these jars is about the same... The key is the words in front of these jars, and the patterns on these jars."

"The picture on this jar is of a seducer. A seducer has destructive combat power, but prefers to lure victims into self-destruction by offering power and wealth. It uses tricks and deceptions everywhere and operates dark transactions." Tassela is indeed well-informed. "What a seducer says cannot be trusted."

"Horned demons are not demons, but devils. Devils belong to the lawful camp and prefer to play tricks, hints, and quote things out of context rather than directly deceiving people. Horned demons usually serve as flying infantry of the Hell Legion and are used to following orders meticulously." Tassela nodded, "You can consider the sentence in front of it to be true."

Leon wanted to interrupt and say a few words, but he felt uncomfortable holding it back, but he finally held it in.

Leon waited for a long time, only to see Tassela pick up a jar and smash it hard on the ground. The jar broke, revealing a key.

"It seems my reasoning was correct." Tassela picked up the key. "Am I awesome?"

"So amazing." Leon applauded, "Our Tassela is so amazing."

Tassela snorted, opened the door to move forward, and the door to go back opened as well.

"Let's go, let's keep moving forward." Tassela left the room in big strides. She waited for a while but Leon still didn't catch up with her. She turned around and saw that Leon was still in the room. "We are leaving, what are you still doing there?"

"What do you think will happen if I smash these jars?" Leon asked curiously. "I don't know." Tassela said, "Maybe a monster or a trap will appear."

"I'll try." Leon then picked up a jar and smashed it to the ground. A demon jumped out of the jar with a picture of a demon. This tall and burly demon had a pair of huge pincers and a pair of smaller hands clenched into fists.

"You saved me, I want to repay you." The seducer looked at Leon. Of course, it didn't have the ability to see through Leon and Tassera's true identity. "I can help you conquer this dungeon."

"Well, let's talk about it later." The seductress was willing to play, and Leon didn't mind accompanying it, but he wanted to wait, so he raised another jar and smashed it.

Even if there are monsters hidden in all those jars, Leon will smash them all, otherwise he will feel uncomfortable. When playing games, it makes no sense not to open a treasure chest, not to touch a shiny spot, or not to smash a jar.

Even if they know that there are only some garbage or even monsters, people with obsessive-compulsive disorder will not let any of them go.

This time, Leon smashed the jar with the horned demon on it. He originally wanted to smash out a horned demon. The devil and the demon are irreconcilable, and then he watched the horned demon and the seducer demon fighting, and unexpectedly a bunch of strange coins appeared.

There are treasures hidden in those jars, not just monsters?

Leon picked up a coin and heard a strange and puzzling whisper in a trance, saying, "This is the soul coin."

"Yes, these are soul coins." The seducer said, "If you have the chance, you can take these soul coins to the devil's store to shop... maybe I can take you there."

“Stop bragging. You, a demon, want to open the portal to the Nine Hells?” Leon carefully put away the soul coin.

He also knew a little bit that soul coins were the circulating currency in the Nine Hells and were highly valued by the devils. They could be used to exchange for benefits, bribe those who were unwilling to do things, or reward loyal subordinates.

"Can you tell that I am a demon?" The seducer smiled ugly. "Can you tell what kind of demon I am?"

"Don't talk to me first and don't disturb me smashing the jars." Leon smashed all the remaining jars in one breath.

As the jars shattered one by one, there appeared in turn the explosive lightning that was impossible to dodge, the flying potion, three huddled shadows, a kind of shadow-like undead creature, and a terrible curse. Of course, it was useless to Leon and Tassela, and they easily passed the immunity, as well as a large amount of gold coins...

All the jars were smashed, and although the harvest was not great, Lyon was still quite satisfied.

Leon looked at the Tempter and said, "You just said you would help us conquer this dungeon. Do you know anything about this dungeon? I want to ask you what this dungeon is all about."

"of course."

According to the seducer, the owner of the dungeon was a wizard who, in order to live forever, was ready to abandon his life and pursue immortality to become a lich. However, for some unknown reason, he changed his mind and finally created this dungeon using magic and golems, and then disappeared.

"Is this true?" Leon was skeptical about the story of the seducer.

"Of course it's true," the seducer said. "Can we go now?"

“We can leave, but you can’t.” Although the seducer was insignificant, Leon didn’t want a danger to be around him, especially an outsider who would hinder his conversation with Tassela. “You are no longer useful.”

When the seducer heard what Leon said, it was obviously stunned. What was going on with these two people? Did it meet adventurers who were more evil than itself?
Demons are always easily angered.

The seducer flew into a rage: "I wanted to play with you guys, but since you want to die so badly, I can only grant your wish."

Many people think that demons only know how to fight and kill mindlessly. In fact, many demons may be more cunning and intelligent than the devil, but they are disorderly and more selfish than each other. You go to die and I will take advantage. For this reason, armies that are several times the size of the devil are often pinned to the ground by the devils.

At this time, the seducer opened his hand and cast a dark spell, and then the man standing in front of it turned into an oversized red dragon, lying on the ground and staring at him.

There was no proper fight at all, just a one-sided beating.

With his sharp teeth and claws, Leon tore the seducer into pieces. He turned to look at Tassera and said, "We can go now... If the seducer didn't lie, we might be able to get a lot of treasure."

Tassela glanced at the messy room with broken jars all over the floor and let out a long sigh. For some reason, she suddenly lost the desire to solve the mystery.

Leon didn't notice that Tassela suddenly became depressed, and said, "Do you have that feeling? There is a gaze staring at us. Do you think it could be the owner of the dungeon that the seducer mentioned?"

"It could be the owner of the dungeon, or it could be the guard arranged here by the dungeon owner." Tassera made a reasonable guess.

"As long as there is no lich." Leon said indifferently. He could not feel any negative energy.
