Just a magical girl who picks up trash

"You actually... have a very bad personality!"

"No, that's your illusion!"

"is it?"

"Yes!"

"..."

94. You win

The notebook thing was just a small episode... No way!

Even after destroying all the notebooks, Amy was still filled with anger and complained to the two of them for more than half an hour. At the same time, as punishment, both Ruby and Yu were thrown out of the carriage by Amy without a doubt, indicating that if the two dared to step into the carriage before the end of this strategy... she would cry in front of them!

Then, although this threat seemed to have no threat power, it instantly made Yu grab Ruby and leave the carriage without saying a word. He also very consciously built a temporary tent three meters away from the carriage, making it clear that he would never go in. Amy finally nodded in satisfaction, and stayed in the carriage with Ruby with peace of mind.

However, in a small tent not far from the carriage.

"The losses are heavy... They're just replicas, but how's your situation? Ruby!"

Looking at the few remaining ashes in his hand with some heartache, Yu immediately asked the Ruby beside him. However, the Ruby did not respond immediately. Instead, a magical light flickered on it for several minutes, and then the Ruby made a sound like a report:

"Mimetic circuit recovery complete. Time magic confirmed to be functioning normally. Now starting to close... Confirmed that the time storage data sealed within the past ten minutes has been saved... Encrypted transmission in progress... Transmission complete! Great, it looks like the backup wasn't lost!"

Using time magic to directly restore all the data that she had deleted within ten minutes, it was obvious that only Ruby could use this method. After hearing what Ruby said, Yu here also breathed a sigh of relief:

"It looks like nothing serious is happening over there!"

"Yes, of course, no problem. As a gentleman, this is the natural way out!"

Ruby said rather proudly, earning a small smile from Yu in return.

"Then, from now on..."

“It’s a pleasure to cooperate~~”

The dark deal...is still going on!

The team led by Black Rose were obviously the elite of their own mercenary group. However, it was obvious that the strength of the lords of the third tier was still beyond their expectations. Therefore, when they returned, they all had obvious injuries. In response to this, Black Rose immediately let the team rest on the spot, and then quickly summoned Yu and others to start the final meeting:

"The third level has been opened, and the final Dragon Domain has also been confirmed to be open. There shouldn't be any other monsters coming to fill the gap, so it's just us who will go there!"

The more people the better in the fight against the Lord of the Labyrinth, and sometimes those who are not strong enough will only become a burden. Therefore, no one present raised any objection to what Black Rose said. It was just that Lei Bao seemed to glance in Yu's direction for some reason at this time, but Yu seemed not to see it at all, and only left a sentence: "Notify me when you leave, I will take Amy with you!" After that, he immediately stood up and left, looking aloof but no one expressed any dissatisfaction. After all, strength determines everything!

"Well, if that's the case, everyone should get some rest tonight. We'll set off early tomorrow morning!"

In reality, there wasn't much to say. After all, the mercenaries present were no longer new. Therefore, Black Rose simply exchanged a few words before dispersing. However, just as the three mercenaries and the other leader left, Lei Bao suddenly turned around and spoke to Black Rose behind him as he stood up to leave:

"By the way, Captain Black Rose, what you promised me before...should it still count?"

The inexplicable words made Black Rose frown slightly. After a long moment, she looked in a certain direction with a complicated expression, then nodded slightly.

"As long as the cooperation is successfully completed, the Black Rose Mercenary Group will not interfere in the future!"

It was this answer that made Black Panther nod in satisfaction:

"Very good, Captain Black Rose...you are indeed a hero!"

Leaving behind this sentence that was not sure whether it was praise or ridicule, Lei Bao immediately turned around and left. Black Rose also stood there for a long time. After a while, a low voice suddenly came to her ears:

"This decision... is a bit rash!"

There was no blame in her tone, it was just a reminder. However, Black Rose frowned slightly and thought for a long time before whispering:

"Lei Bao's mercenary group is very powerful in Baimu City. There will definitely be many opportunities for cooperation in the future. As for them... I have already investigated them, and there is no trace of any powerful forces behind them..."

After answering this, a smile appeared on Black Rose's face:

"Besides, I just said 'I won't interfere', so no matter what happens in the end, it has nothing to do with my Black Rose Mercenary Group, right?"

Having said this, she immediately lowered her eyes slightly, as if trying to convince herself:

"That's right, after all, the cooperation...is only in the Dragon Territory!"

"..."

The voice in the dark did not speak, but fell into silence with Black Rose, and it lasted for a long, long time...

The night passed in silence. Obviously, there was no guy around who always took advantage of her and bullied her, but for some reason, Amy could not sleep peacefully as usual. She got up early and tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She could only sit up from the quilt in great depression. After staring at the darkness in front of her for a long time with dull eyes, she finally stood up gropingly as if accepting her fate.

In the tent outside the carriage, since he had promised Amy not to enter the carriage before the conquest was finished, Yu would naturally keep his promise. This was the most basic quality of a gentleman and lady. However, the absence of that soft figure in his arms still made Yu blink his eyes in discomfort... He basically did not sleep the whole night, just staring blankly like this.

She had clearly been alone for over a hundred years, and in fact, she had almost as many contractors as Amy did. However, for some reason, even though they had only been together for a few days, she felt so uncomfortable without the familiar milky scent and soft touch in her arms.

"Swishing~~"

It seemed as if some sound suddenly came from outside. Yu was slightly stunned and then closed his eyes without saying a word. Then the next second his tent was opened, and Amy's little head came in. After listening to the steady breathing beside her ear, she seemed to hesitate for a moment... Then she quietly came in and slowly shrank into Yu's arms.

"Little Amy?"

Yu, in a daze, made such a puzzled sound, but Amy, while hugging his waist, spoke as if accepting her fate:

"You win, I can't sleep!"

There was no competition, just words of self-admission, but the next second he received Yu's gentle embrace and answer:

"Well~~ I didn't win, after all... I'm the same!"

95. Rare Ores

After a brief rest, the group led by Black Rose began to head towards the last area of ​​the Dragon Domain.

The people heading out were the mercenary leader: Lei Bao, Black Rose, Mo Yu, the mercenary trio (sorry, I can't think of a name), Amy and Yu, eight people. Of course, whether there were only eight people or not, Yu looked at Black Rose with interest but didn't say much.

What meets the eye is a scarlet sky. The maze leading to the Dragon Domain is clearly in a cave in the mountains, but after entering, each level seems to be a new world where one can see the existence of the sky. Naturally, here is no exception. Clouds like blood balls are suspended in the sky, and the bright but dark blood moon hangs high in the sky. Above the ground is an endless grassland.

Strangely, across this grassland, seemingly irregular, bright red crystals were scattered across the grass. Judging by the amount of weeds surrounding them, it was obvious they weren't natural products. As to why they appeared there, no one knew. However, the young woman in the three-person team reached out and gently touched the surface of the crystals before speaking.

"I can sense strong magical fluctuations. This is a very rare magical concentrate... It looks like it was left by a dragon!"

It was common sense that no other monsters existed in the Maze Lord's territory, unless they were summoned by the Maze Lord. Since analysis revealed that these ores were not originally part of the maze, there was no doubt that they were left behind by the Maze Lord. As for what they were...

“…I think it’s better for them not to know what it is!”

Yu, who was standing next to Amy, suddenly said something strange with a look on his face that only Amy could hear. Amy immediately asked in confusion:

"Why?"

Because she couldn't see the crystals and could only vaguely feel the magic, Amy didn't go over to investigate like the others. In fact, except for her and Yu, everyone else had already taken a portion of the red crystals and began to observe. Some reached out to crush some powder to taste it, and some even opened their mouths and took a few bites... Yes, that person was Lei Bao. It seemed that because he had a small amount of dwarf blood, he could distinguish the composition and hardness of the ore through taste.

"..."

Yu didn't directly say why, but instead leaned close to Amy's ear and whispered something. At first, Amy was startled because he suddenly got so close to her, but after hearing what Yu said clearly... she turned around and looked at everyone, and her eyes were instantly filled with sympathy... especially for Lei Bao, who seemed to think the ore tasted good.

How should I put it, if they knew the ingredients...how would they react?

To be honest, Amy was also very curious about the answer, but she naturally would not bring it up at this time. However, there was no need to worry, because someone soon resolved this question for them.

"coming!"

There was another sound of mumbling to himself, and suddenly the originally peaceful grassland began to be swept by a slight wind, and gradually expanded as time went by.

"hidden!"

After also feeling the strangeness in the wind, everyone gathered together without thinking, and then lay down on the grass at a distance from each other, each using their energy to hide their bodies.

"Hu~~"

Almost at the same time, the sound of flapping huge wings was heard. Everyone felt that the sky above their heads suddenly darkened. They raised their heads and looked upwards. They immediately saw a huge monster floating in the sky. Its huge bat-like wings stirred up a huge gust of wind. Under the moonlight, all that could be seen of the huge body was a hideous outline and a pair of scarlet eyes.

“Ho ho ho~~~”

He did not notice the presence of the crowd and seemed to be just venting his anger by roaring to the sky. However, despite this, the huge roar and the air waves that came with it still made everyone's faces instantly solemn. While they all raised their heads to observe the huge monster that appeared, they were also constantly measuring the other party's strength level in their hearts.

Among these people, Amy and Yu were probably the only ones who remained calm. Amy even had a little disappointment in her eyes as she looked at the dragon in the sky.

"What? Speaking of dragons, are these only Western dragons in the other world? I was thinking it might be an Eastern dragon!"

To be honest, she was quite looking forward to this, but unfortunately reality is often not as good as imagined, especially...

"It seems this thing is useless!"

A blank card box appeared in her hand. This was also something Amy had found in the Ranger's Book these days, a blank Dragon Rider card box... That's right, the reason she insisted on coming here was partly out of curiosity, and on the other hand, she actually came here to see if she could turn it into her own contracted beast. However, at this moment, after "seeing" the outline of this giant dragon, Amy immediately gave up this idea.

The dragon seed was indeed a dragon seed, but just as Black Rose had said, it was just a mixed-blooded dragon. If that were all, it wouldn't be a big deal, but in reality, this thing was really...

"It's too ugly, little Amy, please don't just sign it away just because you can't see it!"

The words he spoke without thinking were instantly exchanged for Amy's nod of energy. On this point, she and Yu had the same idea... After all, when he took out the card box, Yu naturally couldn't have guessed what he wanted to do, and now...

"Sure enough, we should kill them. It seems like collecting the spoils would be a good idea!"

According to the requirements of the cooperation, she would be the first to choose one of the war trophies for the final defeat of the Lord of the Maze. To put it bluntly, it was priority. The distribution of these spoils would ultimately be scored by five people, including her, Yu, and the three mercenaries. As for the three leaders of the mercenary groups, including Black Rose, they would share all the resources in the entire maze... Strictly speaking, Amy and the others suffered the most losses!

Of course, that's not necessarily the case. After all, when you fight a BOSS, even though the drop rate is very small, no one can guarantee that something good will come out!

"Everyone...get ready..."

The voice of Black Rose mixed with a trace of magic power reached everyone's ears, and instantly made everyone ready to go. The dragon species that still did not react was slowly descending from the sky. Originally, everyone was ready to go, and just as they were about to act together, the other party's next move made everyone stunned again, and then... except for Amy and Yu, everyone instantly showed an expression as if they had eaten shit!

And in fact... it was true, because at this moment the dragon was defecating, and the stuff it excreted...

It was a bright red crystal stone!

Well, it’s exactly the same piece that Captain Lei Bao just ate!

96. Simple solution

"That damn bastard, I'm going to kill him!"

Lei Bao, with a sullen face, tightly gripped the two chain blades in his hands, his eyes filled with rage and murderous intent as he stared intently at the seemingly unusually relaxed dragon in front of him. Similarly, Black Rose and the others, though not as furious, had gloomy expressions. Seeing this, Jing Yu whistled without any sympathy.

"Good! Before the BOSS is launched, everyone is given a violent buff. This BOSS looks like it will be very fun to play!"

The gloating words were not concealed at all, of course, no one heard it at this moment because Amy was the only one with her.

The ferocious dragon head is more like a lizard covered with various protruding spots than a dragon. It also has a pair of horns on its head that look a bit out of place. The huge body is covered with black substance like a tumor, and is covered with dense scales. Between the pair of huge fleshy wings spread out behind it, the ends of the wings that are obviously covered with scales actually have some messy feathers, which looks even more out of place.

That's right, this is such a weird monster. Just as Black Rose said, it does have dragon bloodline, but that's just it. It obviously has other bloodlines, like birds, lizards, etc. In short, it's like a hodgepodge fusion.

No wonder Yu didn't want it to become Amy's Dragon Knight contracted beast, it's just too ugly!

"Well, in that case... let's do it!"

If Amy had really treated it as a contracted beast, she might have shown some mercy. However, now that the opponent was so horribly ugly, there was naturally no need to hold back. Immediately, with a gesture from Black Rose, the first one to rush out was undoubtedly the already furious Thunder Leopard.

"I'm going to kill you!"

The angry words mixed with the powerful dark purple energy were transmitted by the double swords and fiercely chopped on the flesh wing of the unsuspecting dragon. It was obvious that even in such anger, Lei Bao still had basic fighting instincts... People can't fly, and it will be very troublesome if the dragon flies into the air. Therefore, the first target of attack at this time should not be the vital parts that are obviously impossible to kill with one blow, but its wings... First of all, block the opponent's flying ability!

“Puff~~~”

“Ho ho ho~~~”

A huge bloodstain sprayed out under this unexpected attack. The intense pain caused the dragon to roar to the sky with anger and pain. A pair of scarlet eyes immediately lowered their heads and looked in the direction of the Thunder Leopard. At this moment, in the direction of the other wing behind it, the figure of Black Rose also flashed there like a ghost.

"Good opportunity, Ming..."

"Boom~~~"

A pitch-black vortex suddenly appeared behind Black Rose, and then a big knife formed by black light suddenly slashed out from the vortex, and immediately chopped the other wing of the dragon. Although it did not cut it off directly, it directly destroyed the wing on that side.

“Ho ho ho~~~”

The attacks on both wings completely enraged the dragon species that had just solved the most important issue in its life. It roared angrily again, but the difference from the previous one was that this roar was undoubtedly loaded with a powerful magic power filled with a breath of destruction.

"Boom~~~"

A huge amount of magic power suddenly erupted, sweeping up the surrounding grass and spreading out a huge circular field with it as the center. However, in a corner of the field, a golden light shield was firmly erected. A man holding a large shield in it looked at the dragon in front of him with a serious face. The next second, he roared and the golden magic power surged all over his body. The originally small golden shield suddenly began to expand, and soon it had directly enveloped the entire dragon.

"Bang~~~"

Without wings, the dragon seed, which almost subconsciously wanted to fly, fell heavily to the ground. Black Rose and others who were behind the shield-wielding man took advantage of this opportunity and rushed out at the same time, each holding a weapon and rushing towards the dragon seed.

"Yu, let's go too!"

Since all her teammates were on, Amy naturally couldn't slack off. After saying something to Yu, she jumped up and instantly grasped the ruby ​​cane in her hand. As she transformed, she flew high into the sky.

"Physical defense fully activated, magic power gathered... slash!"

"Shhhh~~~"
