Red Dragon has magic

Chapter 303: Investigating the case is not easy

Leon agreed to Isili and soon met her teammates in the tavern on the left side of the Adventurer's Guild Hall.

In addition to the halfling Clifford, there was also a paladin wearing silver-white armor, a barbarian who was over two meters tall and obviously had the blood of a giant, with clear and stupid eyes, and a sharp-eyed monk who was wearing only one piece of clothing in the cold weather.

"Let me introduce them... I've got you covered, Cliff. Linus is a paladin who has taken a vow of devotion, Kuhn is a Goliath barbarian, and Sebastian is a monk of the Sanda sect."

Isilie first introduced her teammates to Leon, and finally patted Leon on the shoulder and said, "This is Leon, a druid. In times of crisis, he can even transform into a dragon."

"Isn't he a warlock?" As a monk, Sebastian had a very high perception.

"Sir Leon, can you really transform into a dragon?" Linus said seriously.

Leon shrugged his shoulders and said, "If Miss Isili can turn into a dragon, then I can turn into a dragon."

"Once I master the shape-changing process, I can turn into a dragon." Isili's human form is that of a half-elf, and her pointed ears twitch when she speaks.

"When people are pushed into a corner, they can do anything. If they are faced with the danger of being wiped out... I once heard from a bard about shape-shifting. All you have to do is think of the creature you want to transform into, and then do this and that..."

"What do you mean by that look, Sebastian? Don't you believe me?" Isili kept on talking. "Don't you believe in the power of family, friendship, courage, and bond? I can definitely change my form and turn into a dragon to save everyone from danger."

That was his sixth sense. Sebastian had originally suspected that Isili had any reputation, but now he was sure that he was just being self-indulgent. He said perfunctorily, "Believe it, believe it."

Leon crossed his arms and looked at Isili, thinking of a silver dragon he knew named Gliona. That silver dragon left a very good impression on him, so much so that he had a stereotype of silver dragons: either noblemen or ladies. He never knew there were any dragons with such a lively and lively personality.

There can be lively and eccentric silver dragons, but there can be no generous silver dragons. Isilie had no intention of treating them, and as long as they were dragons, they would not be stingy, so Leon had to call the waiter to order the food himself.

Isili didn't mind recommending delicacies, such as braised beef and honey lamb shanks. At the same time, she reminded Leon not to try fermented shark meat easily, because the taste was simply a bombshell. Pickled puffins could suffocate people, especially since the way to eat pickled puffins was to suck out the rotten internal organs from the anus...

After listening to the advice and having a full meal, Leon did not rebel, and decisively ordered the dishes recommended by Isili, and ate them to his heart's content.

After simply preparing some food and water, the adventure team set off without delay, and it took them nearly three hours to reach the Whalebone Town on the seaside.

The reason why Whalebone Town is called Whalebone Town is because of the huge whale skeleton outside the town. The whale skeleton may be hundreds of meters long. If the whale is still alive, its huge size alone may be able to suppress an adult dragon turtle.

"What do we do now?" The paladin held his weapon, a long sword.

"Send some troops to find out what happened to those missing people before they disappeared, who they met, and what they said." Isili looked around. She didn't know if it was affected by the missing cases, but the whole town looked particularly depressed.

"Why bother..." Leon interrupted.

"What do you think?" asked Isili, who had full trust in Lyon.

"How about asking him?" Leon raised his hand and pointed to a fisherman who was working on the dock.

"What's wrong with him?" Isili said, waving her hand.

The halfling and the monk approached the fisherman from the left and right in tacit understanding.

"What do you want to do?" The fisherman noticed the little movements of the halfling and the monk.

"Who is your master?" Leon approached the fisherman. Under his divine eye, there were no fishermen, only ferocious mermaids.

"What master? I don't understand what you are saying." The fisherman said loudly, "Stranger."

"Is there something wrong with him?" Isili looked at Leon.

"Have you heard of the Deep Sea Children?" Leon said, "The Deep Sea Children's life began with those unfortunates who were abducted from the shore or rescued from a sinking ship. A powerful being in the deep sea offered them a terrible price. Those who succumbed would undergo an ancient ritual and be transformed into shapeshifting creatures with a new aquatic form."

"What a mess..." the fisherman said, "You said I am a descendant of the deep sea. Do you have any evidence?"

"If there is no evidence..." The fisherman picked up the harpoon and shouted, "Someone come, someone come, outsiders are bullying us."

Lyon felt a headache as he looked at the fishermen and workers who gathered from all over the dock.

He can see through the disguise of the deep sea descendants, but he doesn't know how to expose them. If he kills them directly, the human will be their original form. Even when a deep sea descendant is killed in the hybrid form of a mermaid, its fish appearance created by magic will peel off, leaving only its original form before it transformed into a deep sea descendant.

Leon decided to use his brain, took out a bottle of potion from his pocket and said, "Drink this, and you will become a mermaid."

"I'll drink if you tell me to," the fisherman said. "What if I don't turn into a mermaid after I drink it?"

"I'll pay you a hundred gold coins." Leon shook the potion and approached the fisherman, "Everyone can help us bear witness."

Seeing Leon approaching step by step, the fisherman subconsciously stepped back. Just as he took a step back, he was pushed by someone. Turning around, he saw a monk stopping him. He tightened his hands holding the harpoon and made up his mind.

The fisherman clenched the harpoon and swung it around, instantly transforming into a mermaid, a medium-sized monster, and then letting out a terrible scream - a mental scream. Anyone who heard the mental scream had to pass a perception immunity, otherwise they would be shocked.

The halfling did not pass the perception saving throw, only the monk did. However, he might not be able to withstand the attack of the deep sea spawn, because the challenge level of the deep sea spawn is comparable to that of the owlbear. In a one-on-one fight, no professional of level 7 or 8 can find it difficult to deal with them.

The spawn of the deep sea forced the monk to retreat and prepared to jump into the sea, where no one could catch him.

Want to go?

Lyon's opponents in recent years are either super-sized old green dragons or sorcerer kings from ancient fallen empires. In the game, they would definitely have no shortage of magic resistance and legendary resistance. The immobilization spell is of no use to them at all, and he has always been too lazy to use it. It is a waste of time.

Today he finally had the chance to use it. Leon raised his finger and used a spell to immobilize the descendant of the deep sea.

Reasoning is outdated. Now is the era of surveillance, big data, and DNA.

With the help of his clairvoyance, Leon's real vision was so useful that no clues could stump him. He led his men to catch three deep-sea descendants and a sea witch in a short time, and finally they stood in front of a hooded man in black.

The man in black lifted his hood, revealing completely black pupils, and hung two tentacles with suction cups as arms. He opened his mouth and made a thunderous sound. Everyone except Leon and Isilie fell into panic. Then he raised his tentacles and cast darkness spell, summoning a large area of ​​darkness, and then nothing happened. How could the little punk be immune to Leon's immobilization spell?

"Is he a human or a monster?" Isili was still frightened. If she faced the man in black alone, she would definitely not be his opponent unless she restored her dragon form.

"If I'm not mistaken... he is the priest of the Kraken." Leon said excitedly. Could a small missing case actually involve the Kraken?
