Chapter 5: Please help me pay the bill (this chapter is free)
Before she could walk out of this jungle, An Ruoran fully understood how strange his new pet was. This arrogant and cunning magic dragon - no, it should be said that the magic pig has many strange problems, such as it likes to brag about its deeds back then, and then always opens with "I was still a magic dragon back then." But hell, who cares what it was back then? What An Ruoran really cares about is what it can do now.
However, in terms of heart, An Ruoran must admit that this once magic dragon was useful. Although limited by the pig's body, its strong mental power and the dragon-language magic that does not need to be chanted still ensure that it can continuously silence low-level magic, forming a machine gun-like effect. After many experiments by Victor, the pig's body actually has strong power, coupled with its cunning and trickery - such as the cuteness just now... So overall, Naya can be compared with a mid-level magic swordsman and is a very good helper.
And the most noteworthy thing is that unlike the ordinary dragon clan, Naya has an extremely cunning and scheming side, and he also knows the world very well. Although An Ruoran inherited Victor's memory, he was essentially just a time traveler who had just entered the world. It is naturally a very rare assistance to be able to get Naya's guidance at this time.
A few hours later, under Naya's explanation and Victor's memory, An Ruoran finally understood the world he was in. Simply put, this world called Flange is actually a piece of land surrounded by infinite oceans. Since ancient times, the long river of Nidora, which has crossed the middle, has divided this continent into two parts, north and south, forming a confrontation.
In the south, the powerful Kasyapa Empire has a population of nearly ten million, and its prosperity is the highest among the mainland. Hundreds of years of stable development have made neutral races such as elves, orcs, and dwarves use the area near Kasyapa as their habitat. In the north, dozens of territories form the Northern Parliament Alliance, which conflict with each other but are consistent with the external. In addition, due to the chaos and complexity of this area, many dark races also choose to settle here and maintain a close relationship with the Northern Alliance.
An Ruoran is now in a small town at the junction of the North and South Continents. Considering the danger of traveling alone, he naturally decided to settle in the Kashyapa Empire and then look for the opportunity to become a formal founder there. Naya had no objection to his choice - in fact, what the Demon Dragon is most concerned about now is the fragrance emitted from the next tavern...
Even though he knew that Naya was using a cute ultimate skill, An Ruoran was still defeated by his big watery eyes and walked into the tavern. But soon, he regretted his generosity - although he maintained the size of a pig, Naya's appetite was still comparable to that of a magic dragon. It was not eating vegetables, but pouring pots of food into his mouth.
"Well, our money seems to be insufficient..." After counting the copper coins in the space ring, An Ruoran reminded him a little nervously. Naya chewed it all out and curled his lips: "Don't worry, after I've eaten and drunk enough, I will set the fire to burn this tavern... Who will give me two roasted suckling pigs!"
"Two roasted suckling pigs?" The servant was obviously stunned when he heard the order. With his wisdom, it was difficult to understand why a little suckling pig had to eat his kind. An Ruoran sighed helplessly, waved his hand to signal the servant to do whatever he wanted, and also began to consider how to pay the meal. The worst thing was that there was no more materials in the ring. Even if he planned to make a Qibao to sell it, it would be difficult for a good cook to cook without rice.
Fortunately, the gate of the tavern opened at this moment. A young swordsman quickly walked into the tavern and shouted loudly: "The Silver Star Merchants Group is about to return to the imperial capital Andorra, and is preparing to temporarily hire twelve guards. Is anyone planning to apply for a job?"
The noise in the tavern suddenly stopped and was shocked by the name that was suddenly reported. The so-called Silver Star Merchant Group was actually a prestigious large chamber of commerce in the Kashyapa Empire. Its strong strength ranks among the major chambers of commerce and is said to have a bit of official nature. Therefore, being able to join such a merchant group, even if it is just a temporary job, is enough to get a generous reward for many mercenaries.
So as soon as he heard the news, the five or six travelers in the tavern stood up, but before they could speak, the young swordsman added as if nothing had happened: "By the way, I almost forgot to say it--we only recruit warriors above the middle level."
The tavern was quiet, and then a neat sigh sounded. After all, mid-level warriors are rare in such small places. An Ruoran sat in the corner, but couldn't help but smile slightly. He was sure that the swordsman did not forget to say it, but was deliberately attacking others. Sure enough, the next moment, the swordsman showed a proud smile and said lightly: "No? If that's the case, then I..."
"Wait a minute, can I sign up?" An Ruoran suddenly raised his hand and slowly stood up from the corner of the tavern. His crane robe and Hanfu attracted everyone's attention, and also made the swordsman bow and salute without negligence in his shock, saying, "Okay, please go to the caravan camp with me, Captain Frank will conduct the assessment himself!"
"Of course, are we going to leave now?" An Ruoran took Naya's tail and pulled it out of a pile of food. However, after a moment of hesitation, he smiled awkwardly again and touched his chin and said, "But before that, can you please help me check out, I have no money around me..."
With a "puff", at least twenty guests spewed out ale. The swordsman couldn't believe what he heard. After a while, he stuttered: "You, what did you say just now, let me pay for you first?"
"Of course, just treat it as advance wages, there should be no problem!" An Ruoran still smiled, and was so thick that he couldn't even break the crash. The swordsman shook his head in disbelief and couldn't help but hesitate: "Sir, you're sure you can pass the assessment. If Captain Frank doesn't plan to hire you..."
"If he doesn't plan to hire me, then I will give you the constant temperature robe on me as compensation for the meal." An Ruoran shrugged without reason and walked out with the dazed swordsman, "By the way, by the way, how do you call you?"
"Mod! You bastard, you went out for a walk and brought back someone who had no magic and no martial arts skills?" Half an hour later, a thunderous roar rang in the swordsman's ears. The roaring middle-aged man was bearded and tall and burly enough to block the sun. If he was compared with the black bear in the forest, I believe no one would have any objections.
Poor Maud, he was like a chick in front of this man. But in order to save his job, he swallowed his throat and defended him dryly: "But Captain Frank, that guy said he had other ways of attacking, and he looked very confident..."
"Nonsense! Do you know that it looks like?" Frank simply grabbed Maud and forced him to look at the Hanfu man standing in the driving range. At this moment, the guy was staring at a bunch of weapons in a daze, as if he didn't even know how to use it. Then, he simply held the piggy pet and faced the targets, as if he was planning to confront him like this...
"Idiots, we don't have time. You'll bring a bard back!" Frank shook Maud vigorously, as if shaking a bag of rice. He opened his mouth fiercely and roared angrily: "Listen, if that guy can smash two targets, I'll swallow all the targets..."
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The sudden continuous roar interrupted Frank's angrily shout. He and Maud turned their heads together, but were stunned by the scene in front of them. Standing in front of dozens of targets, the man with black hair and black eyes had no extra movement at all, but just gently pulled the tail of the pig's pet. The next moment, hundreds of magic spurted out from the pig's mouth, knocking all the targets into pieces - no, to be precise, the fragments were no longer found.
"Captain, look..." Looking at the slowly rising smoke, Maud looked at Frank with a strange expression. The latter let go of his hand and swallowed unconsciously, as if he was experiencing the smell of chewing the target. But then, he immediately shook his head with a stern look on his face and said, "No! No! I mean, unless he takes action himself..."
Before he finished speaking, several blood-colored spear shadows appeared out of thin air and suddenly shot out beside the man. With a loud bang, half of the shooting range disappeared in the red light, and only the remaining pit on the ground was still emitting smoke, proving that everything just now was not an illusion.
"Idiot, your soul fire level is too low, and it has ruined this blood-soul spear in vain!" Regardless of the two soldiers who were stunned, Naya was obviously not satisfied with An Ruoran's destructive power, so he scolded without hesitation, "I remember when I was a demon dragon back then..."
"Shut up, I've tried my best!" He blocked Naya's mouth directly, and An Ruoran shook his head helplessly and sighed. He knew that his soul fire level was too low, and the power of several Qibao could not be displayed, but the fact was that, and there was no golden finger to open. After a moment of hesitation, he turned around and looked at the figure in the distance, and smiled kindly and shouted: "Captain Frank, do you think this kind of result is OK?"
"Yes, yes!" Frank barely spit out a few words, and suddenly felt the urge to slap himself. Maud patted his shoulder lightly, but kindly reminded him: "Captain, I can bring you a glass of water. It is said that this is more conducive to swallowing the target..."
