Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 286 Play hard to get
"Your Highness, the pair of young brothers just now seem to be from the Black Blade Clan!"

A moment later, an accompanying guard left the crowd and caught up with the convoy on a swift dragon.

The chief guard came up, approached the princess's car, and reported in a low voice.

"The Black Blade Clan...

Is this the clan of the Black Blade Sword Master, who participated in the Blood Moon War and slew powerful enemies as a mortal, ultimately becoming a demigod hero?"

Princess Maggie whispered.

"Yes, after hundreds of years, it finally declined...

I once thought that this clan was completely extinct and had no successors."

The shaman next to it said.

“Some time ago, it seemed that they were truly extinct, but the Luker brothers didn’t die, and instead slew their enemies a few years later.

Later, the elder brother of the pair of brothers defeated powerful men such as the lion Ryan and the pigman Wilbur one after another, and went all the way to Lemlien..."

The guard leader whispered.

"It seems their strength cannot be underestimated. They must have received a call to participate in the Beast God Festival in two years and enter the trial grounds."

"Find a few guards to keep an eye on them. If they can successfully complete my mission, it means they have considerable strength and are trustworthy.

When the time comes, please send out the invitation for me."

Hearing this, the shaman was slightly surprised: "Princess, you want to recruit them?"

This seemed to be a spur-of-the-moment idea of Princess Maggie, but it was not uncommon in the orc world.

Even though she is a princess of the empire, she still needs to have her own subordinates and power.

"These brothers have a promising future. Perhaps, after a while, they will shine in the Blood Trial and be awarded the rank of general.

By then, the military power and influence will be under your control.

Besides, building good relationships with these heroes might also help Yannis in the Blood Trial..."

When talking about her lover, Princess Maggie showed a bit of tenderness on her face.

The shaman and the guard leader nodded without saying anything more.

……

"What bad luck! I was assigned this mission for no apparent reason. There's nothing good to gain from it!"

A few days later, outside the city.

On a desolate and uninhabited mountain.

Luker accompanied Roy to wait in the place where the wyvern might come and go, complaining repeatedly.

Roy ignored his complaints and recalled the information he had found.

The Wyvern is a large sub-dragon creature in the Orc world.

It is said that they have the bloodline of dragons and are distant relatives with a relatively weak blood relationship.

In many worlds, these creatures are regarded as servants and guards of dragons, and are a lower race than dragons.

But no matter what, it still has a trace of dragon blood.

Just by having the word "dragon" in their names, they possess powerful bodies that are unattainable by most flying monsters, as well as the ability to spit venomous dragon breath.

They are only at the bottom among the sub-dragons, but they can definitely be called the overlord of the sky in the middle and low magic world.

An adult wyvern possesses an elite template among first-level creatures, and even ordinary heroes find it difficult to deal with it.

Roy knew that if he wanted to gain Princess Maggie's attention and have a chance to get close to her, he had to demonstrate certain abilities.

Killing such a large monster is indeed an opportunity to show off.

At this moment, a pair of huge figures flew over from the distant sky, approached, and slowly descended.

Roy jumped up and attacked with an icy sword energy through the air.

The bone-chilling cold brought by the second-level gem froze half of the pterosaur's body.

The wyvern felt excruciating pain, its body hanging as if suspended by a heavy object, and it slowly descended. Luker responded, charging forward in a single bound.

With a swish, the long sword swept across.

The body, as huge as a pterosaur, was soon cut open with a shocking wound.

"Success!"

Roy showed a look of joy, turned around in the air, and suddenly stopped in mid-air, then swung his sword towards the other smaller flying dragons that were rushing towards him.

In a short time, those flying dragons were chopped down by his sword.

"Success!"

"This looks like a whole nest of flying dragons. If they weren't attacked by surprise, but were entangled on the ground, I'm afraid they would be really difficult to deal with!"

"Don't worry about it, just deal with them and get back to the task."

Roy planned to keep the dragon's corpse for himself, take it back to the secret base in the cave, and throw it to the mimic mushrooms to digest.

Maybe we can even get their blood factor information for cloning and replication.

He now increasingly realized that the mimic meat mushroom he had accidentally obtained possessed unique advantages in the field of blood.

Because normally, it is very difficult to completely clone a creature and decipher and copy all the blood factor information.

However, the mimic meat mushroom is completely based on mushrooms and artificial meat as a basic template, which can carry a lot of useful information and eliminate useless information.

The creature created in this way is not a real object, but an anthropomorphic or human form of a meat mushroom.

This could give them one or two very useful biological traits, and perhaps over time, could lead to the creation of a good alchemical life form.

The wyvern can provide a template for air units.

It is still very useful for him now.

……

Not long after, Roy deliberately ordered his men to parade the bodies of the wyverns through the city, and then used the channels of merchants to dispose of them in a low-key manner.

A few days later, Princess Maggie sent someone to invite him.

"What on earth does she mean?"

Luker was a little confused and said in a buzzing voice.

"Why worry so much? Won't you know once you get there?"

Roy vaguely guessed the other party's intention, but pretended not to know.

Luker nodded, not quite understanding, and had to go to the banquet with him.

"You two are both rare talents, but you come from humble backgrounds and haven't even held any official positions yet, making it difficult for you to serve the empire...

I don't know, but are you interested in becoming my follower and serving me?"

As expected, Princess Maggie personally extended an olive branch.

Luker looked surprised. He didn't expect that he would have such an opportunity.

"For us common orcs, the right path is to participate in the Beast God Festival and pass the Blood Trial!"

Roy refused calmly, and his words showed that he did not take the wealth and power that were within his reach seriously at all.

Luker was moved and couldn't help but glance at him.

No, brother, you are serious.

Such a good opportunity, you don’t want it when it’s right in front of you?

He didn't know that this tactic was called playing hard to get.

Before going out, Roy sprayed a lot of friendly fragrance to enhance his charm, dressed up nicely, and carefully designed his image and temperament.

All of this is done in order to quickly enter the high-end circle through the tiger princess's back door.

How could I really refuse?
