Red Dragon has magic

Chapter 355 A cloud-piercing arrow
Dragona did not reply to Leon immediately because Leon's conditions were too harsh. He could still afford one million gold coins. He had accumulated more than a few million gold coins over the years, but he still wanted to interfere in the Blackwater Chamber of Commerce. That was digging up his roots.

Leon didn't care about Dragona at all. He agreed to the best conditions for him, which gave him the opportunity to intervene in the Blackwater Merchant Guild and the Fork Road City. It didn't matter if he didn't agree, because his base was in Watchport anyway. It was just a pity that he used to be satisfied with just 100,000 gold coins, but now he has become so greedy.

"Go back and think about it carefully. There's no rush. I'll give you a day." After Leon said that, he went into his lair in front of Dragona.

"The black dragon cannot be trusted." Tassela had been waiting for Leon.

I have to say that she is very sensible. Otherwise, if Angelista or Saloves were here, they would have probably sneaked into Dragona's lair and looted it, and then been hung up and beaten by Leon, making them vomit out all the gold coins and gems hidden in their stomachs.

"The Black Dragon bullies the weak and fears the strong. From this perspective, as long as I am stronger than him, I don't have to worry about him." Lyon said with a smile.

"You are indeed stronger than him now, but it may be difficult to completely subdue him." Tassera said, "That is an ancient black dragon."

"So I need you to go back to Watch Harbor later." Leon narrowed his eyes, "After we search his lair, we will immediately return to Fork Road City... In case of any accidents, we should send Betty back to Watch Harbor first."

"Yes, I will stay here, you go back and call people...Call Cecilia, Angelista, and Saloves all here." Leon thought for a moment, "Fiora, Aegon, and Isilie can also come over. Leaving the dragon turtle, plus the fire giants and others, will be enough to protect the volcanic island. There is no need to worry about any accidents."

Leon continued, "If Dragona is willing to negotiate with us, then let him see our strength. If that old guy is plotting against me, he may want to negotiate with me on the surface, but in fact he wants to find helpers to fight again... Let's see who has more people."

Leon expressed his thoughts, and Tassela nodded repeatedly.

No matter what, Lyon now has only one idea, which is to find out the shortcomings and fill them up, and the most urgent task is to plunder.

Dragona's lair is located in an underground cave. The obsidian walls are covered with slippery moss, and water drops drip from the inverted stalactites, making hollow echoes in the dead silence.

Leon looked around. The ground was covered with a layer of sticky silt, scattered bones were half buried in the mud, the shallow pool was glowing with a strange green light, and a layer of oil-like substance floated on the surface of the rotten water, occasionally emitting bubbles and pungent smoke when it burst... The treasure of the ancient black dragon was located deep in the lair.

Black dragons appreciate objects of cultural, magical, or scientific significance from lost civilizations. Knowing that a relic in their possession is coveted by others because of its connection to a bygone past can be valuable.

In addition, Black Dragon also likes traditional treasures. Among all gemstones, he likes opal the most, followed by precious metals and stone carvings that are not easily corroded.

Leon fell in love with a ceremonial sword at first sight. The hilt was made of embossed silver and the blade was made of amber. It was really beautiful, but it was a pity that it was a work of art that only looked good but was not useful... There were at least hundreds of thousands of gold coins piled up like a small mountain, and the colorful opals were so beautiful.

As for Tassela, she was not too interested in the treasures, but was more interested in the bones, shells, and metal plates, because the black dragons who were good at magic liked to record notes and rituals on those things instead of paper or parchment that were difficult to preserve in a humid environment.

Not only that, the objects themselves were art, each piece bearing rows of elegant dragon script, carved with dragon acid.

Regardless of whether it was useful or not, he collected all the treasures in his sleeves. As for dividing the spoils, he would wait until he reached a safe place. Suddenly, Leon found a hidden door... Most black dragons hid their treasures very well and had a private treasure room to store the most precious treasures. If they knew that their men could see their collections, this alone would make the black dragon furious.

Leon raised his claws and knocked open the hidden door. He entered the hidden room and saw several dragon hearts in huge glass bottles, a family tree in a magical sealed container, a noble or royal family from an unknown country, and twelve metal discs the size of dinner plates with words engraved on them that he couldn't understand... "Can you understand the words on this thing?" Leon raised his claws and pointed at a metal disc. The metal disc was too small, and he was too big to pick it up.

Tassera changed into human form, picked up one of the metal discs and looked at it carefully, frowned and shook her head, saying, "I don't understand."

"I'll leave it to you. You'll be responsible for interpreting it. I'm sure those metal discs are hiding some secrets." Leon said, "I know you must be very interested."

The two stayed in Dragona's lair for half a day and left with a lot of gains. When they passed by the Colosseum, they found that the Colosseum had turned into a hell on earth.

Leon looked at the bodies of several giants and suddenly had an idea: "If we didn't kill them then, maybe we could recruit them now."

"They have been in the arena for so long. I don't know how many drugs they have been injected with. Their minds may have been destroyed long ago." Tassera paused. "Even if they are not destroyed, they are just a few giants. It is meaningless."

"That's right." Lyon nodded.

Return to Betty's Mage Tower in the afternoon.

"Why are you back so early?" Betty obviously didn't know about the tragedy that happened in the arena. "Was the show good?"

“We were in the show,” Leon laughed.

"What do you mean?" Betty asked curiously, "Why did you join the show?"

"Don't be scared." Lyon briefly explained what happened.

Even though Leon had warned Betty in advance, the dwarf female mage was still frightened and jumped up, but she quickly reacted and said, "You actually beat away the ancient black dragon?"

"Sprinkle some water," Leon said, "If he hadn't run so fast, you would be able to see the corpse of the ancient black dragon now."

"Stop bragging." Betty wrinkled her nose. It was already outrageous that the young red dragon defeated the ancient black dragon. It was too exaggerated to want to kill the ancient black dragon.

Leon laughed and said without explanation: "It's been a few days. You should have packed most of your things, at least the important things... Go back to Watch Harbor with Tassela now, and I will bring your things back for you when the time comes."

Betty glanced at Leon, then turned to look at Tassela without asking any more questions.
