Red Dragon has magic

Chapter 216 Big Discovery

All races are welcome in Forked Road City, even the mind flayers do not interfere, as long as they do not cause trouble, but this situation is rare, as it is rare for a mind flayer to stray away from the Elder Brain, let alone a Githyanki.

Bisca is a Githyanki who is tall and thin with yellow-green skin. She likes to burn, kill and loot, but she is not strong enough to rob Forky Road City. For this reason, she came to Forky Road City not to scout the place, but simply to relax after completing the task. It was purely accidental that she saw a magic item that was obviously full of the style of the Mind Flayer.

Her behavior was noticed by the middle-aged clerk, who asked enthusiastically: "Madam, do you want this bracelet?"

“No.” As a powerful Githyanki knight, Bisca has hunted many mind flayers and has countless magical props from them on hand, ranging from rings, bracelets to cloaks.

"Where did this thing come from..." Bisca said as politely as possible.

She really had no interest in the magic item itself, but was interested in its source.

She thought that she might be able to use that magic item to find a mind flayer colony, and then find a way to publicize that mind flayer colony and gain praise from Queen Vlaakis.

"We just sell it, no matter where it comes from." Upon hearing Bisca's words, the middle-aged cashier's expression immediately turned cold.

If he hadn't worked as a shop assistant for many years and knew the Githyanki people, and knew how bad their tempers were and how they liked to draw their swords and chop people when they disagreed with something, he would even want to say - poor guy, don't ask if you don't want to buy.

Bisca saw the expression on the middle-aged clerk's face. If it were in another place, she wouldn't mind drawing her sword and putting it on the middle-aged clerk's shoulder to interrogate him. Maybe she could even chop off one of his arms or legs before interrogating him.

Unfortunately, Chalu City is not like other places. There are many powerful people here, including dragons, giants, liches, demons, etc. She can't be so presumptuous. After thinking for a while, she took out a gold coin from her pocket and put it on the counter, saying: "This is for you. I have a few questions for you."

The middle-aged teller touched the gold coin and knew it was real. He smiled and changed his attitude 180 degrees. He said, "What question do you want to ask?"

"Where did this thing come from?" Bisca pointed at the bracelet. "It looks brand new, without any wear or tear. It must have just been released to the market... Which adventurer went to the Underdark, killed a mind flayer, and sold it to you? Do you know where that adventurer is? I have something to discuss with him."

"This... this was not sold to us by any adventurer. It was from the Golden Shore Chamber of Commerce." The middle-aged clerk recalled for a moment. Who told him this? His immediate superior or the mercenary who delivered the goods? "The Golden Shore Chamber of Commerce obtained it from the powerful Cliff Sword."

The Githyanki usually live in the Astral Plane, but because the residents of the Astral Plane cannot age, be born or grow, they can only raise their offspring in secret nurseries in remote areas of the Material Plane.

Bisca usually lives in the astral plane. If there hadn't been some problems with the childcare, which had been resolved by now, she wouldn't have come to the material plane. She didn't know what kind of strong man had appeared in the material plane. She frowned slightly for a moment and asked, "Who is the Sword of the Cliff?"

"The Sword of the Cliff is not someone, but a powerful red dragon." The middle-aged clerk gestured, "He first appeared in the Lost Plateau, slaughtered hundreds of frost giants, and killed a big evil dragon that offended him, a mature red dragon, and occupied Watch Harbor. Now the tyrant has ruled there for several years." "If he has the ability to kill a mature red dragon, then he must be a mature red dragon at least." Bisca touched her mouth, "Why is a red dragon called the Sword of the Cliff?"

“Guess why it’s called the Cliff-Breaking Sword…” The middle-aged clerk noticed the Githyanki staring at him. He coughed and said, “You would never have thought that a red dragon could use weapons. That red dragon that can use a sword once broke a cliff with one sword, so it’s called the Cliff-Breaking Sword.”

That is to say, Leon was not at the scene, otherwise he would definitely hold down the head of some nonsense guy and ask him how he could have cut off the cliff with one sword. You people should not make up stories. He did not cut off the cliff with one sword, and he is not a ruby ​​dragon...

"Ridiculous, how can a red dragon use a sword." Bisca is so familiar with red dragons that she even has a red dragon partner... a red dragon partner instead of a red dragon mount, because the other party can get a larger share of the spoils from the robbery. If it's an 80:20 split, 80% of it will go to them.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask other people. The Cliff Sword is a strange red dragon that can use a sword... I didn't believe it at first, but everyone said so." The middle-aged clerk paused, "I can only say that there are all kinds of strange things in this world."

Bisca had no nose, but she had pointed ears. She moved her pointed ears, but she couldn't imagine a red dragon using a sword. However, seeing the middle-aged clerk's confident look, she couldn't help but believe it a little and said, "That cliff sword, where did that red dragon steal that bracelet from?"

"I heard that he massacred an entire colony of mind flayers." The middle-aged clerk thought of the recent rumors and thought that the red dragon had been peaceful for several years and finally did something big... Not a big thing, neither big nor small.

"Didn't you just say that he occupied Watchport? How come he massacred a mind flayer colony?" Bisca frowned. "The mind flayer colony is in the Underdark. How could a red dragon living on the surface run to the Underdark and massacre the mind flayer colony?!"

"Then I don't know. You should ask him about this matter." The middle-aged clerk shrugged. "Maybe he has a grudge against the Mind Flayer."

"Maybe." Bisca nodded thoughtfully. She was not thinking about finding the Mind Flayer colony now, but whether she could talk to the powerful red dragon and form an alliance with it. It was rare to see a red dragon that might have a grudge against the Mind Flayer. "Go on, I want to know everything about the Cliff Sword."

"I want to tell you, too, but the story is a bit long." The middle-aged clerk was a little embarrassed, "We are opening a store."

Bisca took out another gold coin and said, "That's enough. Don't be too greedy. You may earn money but not spend it."

"Yes, yes, yes." The middle-aged clerk took the gold coin and said, "I will tell you everything you want to hear."

Bisca left the store an hour later and found a restaurant. She found a girl with lazy red medium-length hair eating heartily and said, "Sarovice, have you ever seen a red dragon using a sword?"
