Chapter 88 The Red Scale Road (I)
"9800 contribution for the Red Scale, 20,000 left after spending, not bad."
Mantou was a little stunned: "Isn't it 10780? Why is yours so much cheaper than mine?"
Singo said lightly: "The price is related to the favorability. Every time the favorability decreases, the price will increase by 1%, so..."
Mantou:.
Singo said to Cassius: "Lord Cassius, I also want to buy [Red Scale]."
Mantou followed closely: "Me too."
Casius's golden eyes stared at them, and he slowly said: "These are the sharp knives and blades of my men. Becoming a Red Scale Conqueror means that you have no other choice but to fight for me."
"Are you really ready?"
Mantou's eyes were firm.
"I'm ready!"
The eighteen days of slavery experience replayed in his mind like a revolving lantern, which made him extremely determined to become a Red Scale Conqueror.
Casius took out two red scales.
"Then go and prove your abilities to me!"
"I hope you can hold on until then."
As Kasius finished speaking, the two people's panels refreshed with information.
[Advanced Mission: [Red Scale Conqueror] has been opened. ]
[Red Scale Conqueror is a special group of knights who are loyal to the master of the Burning Embers Nest - the red dragon Kasius. They can patrol the vast territory of the red dragon as rangers and scout enemies that may come at any time, perhaps the army of the kingdom, or perhaps adventurers who want to slay the dragon. And when war comes, they will also be terrible conquerors.
When the roar of the dragon comes from afar, the Red Scale Conqueror will ride on the huge and brutal dragon vein creatures from the sky, bringing endless flames and complete death to the enemy. ]
[Mission 1: Go to the Dragon Valley and find [Red Scale Conqueror Instructor-Alger]. ]
"Alger? Another unknown NPC."
"And we are going to the Dragon Valley. Have you read the post by Charlotte, the president of Magic Coin?"
"Yes."
"Let's go directly through the door under the city wall later, so as not to be wiped out like them."
The four people left the mysterious cave and temporarily parted ways. Tiansheng Zhan Kuang and Xia Ye Qiu Yu only needed to wait for the dragon blood gift to succeed, while Mantou and Singo needed to complete a series of advanced tasks.
The two of them followed the road built by the followers to the front of the Rock Fortress.
The earth elf guards stood on the city wall, pointed their crossbows at them, and asked, "Who are you?"
Faced with the fierce inspection, Singo's face remained unchanged: "We are followers from Batto City, come to see Instructor Alger."
When the earth elves heard this, they opened the door and let them in, but their expressions were quite playful, talking to their colleagues.
"Do you think these two can succeed?"
"Let's make a bet. I'll bet 100 copper coins."
"What the hell? Alger's Red Scale Legion has been going on for so many years, and he's the only one left. Do you think I'm stupid?"
"Haha, the unlucky guy who went there for the test last time was smashed into a meat pie, and was eaten by an ogre. No one dares to go there until now, not to mention that these are two humans."
Singo and Mantou encountered all kinds of monsters in the valley, including lizardmen, hobgoblins, dog-headed men, and even half-goat men. They asked for directions while walking, and finally found Alger's residence.
For some reason, after hearing that they were looking for Alger, the monsters all showed a gloating expression on their faces.
"That's it."
Mantou pointed to the simple cave and said.
"Something's wrong. This professional instructor is at least a big shot. How could he live so badly?"
"Never mind, let's go in and take a look."
The two rashly broke into the cave.
I saw a warrior sitting on a stone bench sharpening his sword - but he didn't look human.
The guy in front of me was about two meters tall, with strong and hard muscles all over his body. The surface of his skin was covered with dense red scales. His head was not human-like, but a ferocious dragon head like a dragon, with golden, reptilian vertical pupils that were particularly conspicuous.
Behind his head, the crown made of keratin scales looked like a mess of hair. The hand that held the long sword was not a pure human palm, but more like a dragon's claw, but more flexible.
"Who are you?"
He raised his head, staring at the newcomers with golden vertical pupils, his eyes contained a chilling and dangerous aura.
[Red Scale Conqueror - Alger]
Faction: [Burning Nest]
Basic ability:?
Challenge level:?
"This is the fourth unknown NPC!"
Mantou exclaimed in a low voice.
And Singo calmly took out his token - the red scale.
"We are here on the orders of Lord Cassius to carry out the Red Scale Conqueror's advancement mission."
Alger's golden eyes also flashed a fleeting surprise.
He thought it was another trialist who overestimated his own abilities. He had seen many in the past few years, but this time he brought a token, which should be the "gifted people" mentioned by the master, which made him pay attention to it.
Alger also wanted to see what kind of talent could allow them to become a flying knight in such a short time.
However, his golden eyes looked up and down at the two people, but he did not find anything extraordinary. In fact, they were not as strong as those monsters.
"Very good, I hope you can survive."
"Follow me."
The two players followed Alger obediently.
Mantou whispered: "Why did he tell us to survive? Could this advanced task that cost a lot of money be dangerous?"
Singo said disdainfully: "Don't worry, you will know later."
They went deeper into the valley and passed several forks.
"Ah--"
Before they entered, they heard a noisy and chaotic roar echoing inside, which continued.
And finally came to a valley full of fire and heat. They saw the true face of this place.
There were large and small pits on the towering rock walls, and many two-legged flying dragons lived in the valley. They flapped their wings, swung their long tails, and opened their bloody mouths that exuded a fishy smell.
The flying dragons were either perched on the pits to rest, or hovering in the air, and even several flying dragons were fighting with each other, constantly making noisy roars.
Alger crossed his arms and said indifferently: "This is the Dragon Valley, where the two-legged dragons breed their cubs. I need you to find your own mounts here."
When they saw someone coming, the vertical pupils that were emitting dim light in the dark immediately focused on him.
The red dragon blood in Alger's body was far more noble than that of the dragons, so they still respected him.
But for Mantou and Singo, the two-legged dragons were not polite, and some of them even had sticky saliva dripping from the corners of their mouths, wanting to use these two tender humans as desserts.
Mantou looked up at the many dragons, stunned.
"I... Shit"
