Make the dragon great again

Chapter 59 Fate is beyond words (please ask for tickets and investment!)
Regardless of whether the rumors are true or not, in the past few months, more and more adventurers who are either pursuing great strength or are simply idle have embarked on a journey to the depths of the Mullin Great Forest.

As a result, the large forest, which was originally full of dangers and had only two stable roads running through the north and south for hundreds of thousands of years, was opened up by a large number of enthusiastic adventurers in just a few months. A new path in the deep west of the Great Forest.

However, the "road" is actually just a "relatively safe route" to avoid the lairs of powerful monsters and not encounter too many groups of monsters.

Therefore, this "road" is not something everyone can walk. In addition to the minimum strength requirements, it is also necessary to have acquaintances in the circle of high-level adventurers and be able to obtain information about the "safe route" through social connections.

……

While Damon and Kane were not paying attention, the half-elf female magician Ai Lu asked the captain cautiously:

"Captain, is it really alright for us to accept this commission? What if we encounter that giant dragon again in the depths of the Mullin Forest?"

Captain Hank snorted, forced himself to calmly say:
"What are you afraid of! We are just leading the way, and we are taking the safe route explored by the gold-level adventurer team in the guild, there will be no problem!"

Yorkson on the side added in a low voice:
"...We are also a gold-ranked adventurer team."

The three fell silent at the same time.

Kane, who noticed that the three of them had slowed down, asked:

"Three, what's the matter?"

"Uh, cough, it's nothing, we are thinking about how to attack that dungeon."

Hank made up an excuse casually, but Damon was very interested in this topic unexpectedly.

"So that's the case. All three are gold-level powerful adventurers. They must be very experienced in breaking through dungeons, right? I wonder if we can ask about dungeons?"

"This! This..." Hank was sweating coldly when asked.

You know, how much moisture is in the gold nameplates on the three people's chests, they are very clear in their hearts.

If they hadn't obtained a large amount of points from the guild in an almost fraudulent way half a year ago, the three of them are still black iron-level bottom-level adventurers!It is one level lower than the noble guard Kane next to him...

Kane is not as innocent as Master Damon, seeing Hank's faltering, he gradually became suspicious.

Fortunately, Ai Lu made a timely remedy:
"This is a commercial secret. Our adventurers rely on this information to make money. If we don't pay you, we won't disclose any valuable information."

Hank breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly said:
"That's right, that's it, that's it!"

The two looked at each other quietly, and made a tacit agreement at the same time that "once the other party really buys information, they will quote an unbearable price".

However, Dimon and Kane didn't have much money at all, so after hearing about the fee, they immediately gave up the idea of ​​inquiring about the news.

call……

Seeing that the employer didn't really intend to ask the end, the three adventurers breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Speaking of experience in exploring dungeons, they are not without experience, but the only time they explored was an empty and strange dungeon, and in the end they were caught and sealed by the terrifying dragon dungeon master memory.

So let's not talk about valuable experience, that experience is no different from a nightmare for them...

Since encountering the giant dragon again on the shore of Kunas Lake and recovering the sealed memory, the three adventurers who originally dreamed of switching to management professions after finishing the last vote have been "floating" in various places in the eastern part of the continent. After half a year, even the commission from the mountain dwarf kingdom was ignored.

——Of course, half of the dwarf palace was destroyed by the terrifying beam of light piercing the world from the giant dragon. It is estimated that people are not in the mood to pay attention to them at this time.

For the past six months, they have been terrified by the last look of the pure white dragon looking at them that day, afraid that when that terrifying fantasy creature will find them, so they have been wandering around the eastern part of the continent, until recently they were a little relieved. Back to Rannord Town.

I originally planned to keep the savings for opening a shop or buying magic books later, but because I didn't dare to stay in a certain place so that I couldn't accept the commission, I spent most of it in the past six months.

Especially the young paladin Yorkson, who was expelled from the Kingdom of the Holy Order, was almost penniless to pay for the treatment of his seriously ill sister.

That's why he, who has always been prudent, would agree to Captain Hank's suggestion of another "nonsense"——

Gather up the remaining savings of the three, go back to Rannord Town to buy the "safe route" map from other senior adventurer teams in the guild, and act as a guide to earn money for those who want to go to the mysterious dungeon but have no way out. people's money.

Having said that, I have to talk about the "safe route" map.

The maps of this era are not the kind of accurate maps obtained through satellite scanning and remote sensing calibration. These hand-made maps drawn on parchment or papyrus are often far from the real situation.

And a simple map between adventurers can only point out a fixed route most of the time, because this kind of map is drawn more by subjective experience, relying on a fixed road and appearing along the way are used as coordinates mark geographical features to guide the way forward;

That is to say, on a map marked with a certain road, only the general orientation and distance of these geographical features along the way are often drawn, so that people can complete the road, but they cannot discern any other information. Include the actual specific location of yourself and your destination.

Having said so much, it is actually just to express a fact:
These three water-injected "gold-levels" didn't know that the mysterious dungeon that was rumored to grant powerful power to passers-by was actually the dungeon they broke into last and only time, the place where their dreams began...

"We shouldn't encounter that giant dragon, right? And the strange dungeon back then seems to be on the west side of the forest near the Roaring Mountains"

Ailu loves to worry about the problem again, and Hank once again performed:

"Damn! Don't worry, the Great Mullion Forest is bigger than Behemoth and Griffin combined. The west side of the entire Great Forest is bordered by the Roaring Mountains. There are several untouched forests in such a large place. The discovered dungeon is a very normal thing!"

"That's true, the dungeon where the giant dragon is located is empty, there is no guard at all, and it is not consistent with the dungeon in the rumors..."

"Well, and if the rumors are true, maybe we can try to break through? If we are really endowed with great power, then we will be truly gold-ranked in the future!"

I don't know if it was luck, or the "internal map" bought at a high price from other gold-level teams marked an absolutely safe route. After walking for more than half a month, we arrived at our destination in the west of the forest.

——A huge circular square with a radius of hundreds of meters suddenly appeared in the forest.

"Captain, why do I feel that this neighborhood... seems familiar?"

"...It must be your illusion! Didn't you see the abandoned castle!"

"However, before I mentioned the problem, you have already thought about that aspect..."

……

Just when these people arrived at the entrance square at the bottom of the dungeon, they were in the [Hall of Dominion] on the ninth floor underground.

Adrian, whose main body is shrouded in a dark field where light cannot pass through, and whose body is undergoing leap-like transformation, is asking a human adventurer who has broken through the first three floors about the power he expects.

"...Tell me, human, what power do you want from me?"

"I, can I choose?"

Old Sam was a little flattered. He was very pleasantly surprised to find and pass through this dungeon. He didn't expect that the mysterious dungeon master was different from what Karen said, and he was given a chance to choose!
Adrian laughed lowly, and answered Old Sam's question in a tacit way.

This old adventurer, who was very talkative in front of young people, had given him some help when he left the Great Forest of Mullin, and because of something that left a good impression on Adrian's heart, so Adrien Derian didn't mind giving him more preferential treatment - originally, Old Sam had little hope of breaking through the first three floors.

In fact, after the battle with the Skeleton Dragon and the inheritance memory of Kunas, Adrian no longer carefully hides his dragon body and identity;

If he wasn't in the critical stage of his legendary transformation, he wouldn't mind confessing his identity to Old Sam in the form of a half-elf, just to see how the old adventurer would react.

"Ok?"

Adrian suddenly had a thought. Through the spiritual link with the dungeon as a whole, he sensed several familiar soul waves approaching outside the surface entrance at this time.
