Chapter 131 Adaptation
The fire in the pit burned for a whole night and emitted a foul smell. When a creature twisted by a monster is burned, it will smell bad and has the powerful function of eliminating appetite. No one would want to taste what the taste of Chimera is. But this smell does not mean that it is poisonous or inedible. If you are so hungry, you can fill your stomach if you kill the monster, let alone these are just twisted creatures.
Driven by the combustion aid, the fire engulfed Chimera's corpse. The blood evaporated, the organs and muscles turned into ashes, leaving only the bones to maintain their rough shape. When the fire became smaller, someone in the caravan hit the bones with a long-handled hammer. The skeletons had already been burned out, and after one hammer, they also joined the ranks of ashes.
The body part was basically ashes, but Chimera still stubbornly left a little debris. Among its four heads, the sheep head with the characteristics of fire element is more resistant to combustion. A sheep head skull is basically preserved intact, and there is no trace of burning black. The white sheep head skull is covered with some purple thorn-shaped patterns, which looks mysterious and weird, and even a little bit beautiful. This skull can be regarded as a precious decoration and placed on the walls of a noble family as a result of hunting, which is definitely very respectable.
"This must be left to the Earl of Kepole," suggested Hiloai. "The Chimera in the territory has been destroyed, and he must be able to provide evidence. And your caravan will come back in the future, so it is important to deal with it well."
Geros nodded vigorously and solemnly thanked the elf witch for the advice. In fact, Geros also had the same idea. At this time, you cannot covet the little money you sell the sheep's head. It is more important to establish a good relationship. He was just surprised that the arrogant elves would actively provide advice to him, a human being. There is only one explanation for this abnormal behavior: Dagon is very important in Hiloai's heart.
"Madam, we have never met the Earl, how is it more appropriate to give it to him?"
"Just find someone who is good at speaking and knows how to praise me. The key is time. After your caravan is far away from here, you should send the sheep's head over. Just say that the sheep's head is too dirty and needs processing to be equipped with an earl. Maybe that's it. Don't ask me if you have too many, it's not my business."
Geros thanked repeatedly and sent Shiloai away. The female elf indeed went to find Dagon again, staying in his carriage and never riding his own horse. Fortunately, Lati was there, serving Shiloai like a little maid. When she had nothing to do, she stayed quietly aside, staring at the two of them wide, so she was not afraid of problems.
"Why am I starting to worry about this?" Geros slapped his forehead and shouted to the convoy: "Okay, check it out for the last time, and then we'll set off. Have you picked up the scales? Don't end it!"
In addition to the sheep's head, there are many complete scales left in the fire pit. These are the ones on Chimela's neck, and there was no skin on this part at the beginning. The fire burned out other parts, including the skin on which the scales depended, but these scales were basically preserved intact. If the sheep's head is an earl's souvenir, then these scales are souvenirs for everyone. Perhaps in addition to placing memories, if you can find a way to process the scales, you might also be able to make something and make some money.
Under the illumination of thousands of golden lights cast by the rising sun, the convoy swayed and began to set off. Everyone was in high spirits, and Chimera was no longer a threat, so Toby took the lead in singing. The half-ling's singing was cheerful, but the lyrics were a bit vulgar and funny, and everyone laughed three times more than they sang with them. At this time, Nasim plucked the strings of the donkey on the back of the donkey and sang the famous folk song "Land on the Path of Hope".
Everyone stopped singing, listened attentively, and immersed in the song. Nasim not only had a good voice and had a skillful singing skills, but also had the creative ability and control ability to adapt on-site. The original song was slower and melodious, as if he was walking slowly. This rhythm was not very consistent with the joy and lightness of everyone being excited and secretly enjoyed when carrying the spoils. So he used them as drum beats and background sounds according to the rhythm of the horses on the convoy, and changed the song to a state of exclusively belonging to this moment and this quiet mind.
This is an elf song, and Shiloai can also sing, and she can't help but hum. But after a while, she shook her head and accused Nasim of adapting classic songs randomly and posing as if he was proud. Dagon lifted the tarp and looked out. Nasim did shake his head a little, but it was a bit too much to say that he was proud of himself. Moreover, he couldn't see Nasim from Shiloai's position just now, which was obviously a false accusation.
After chatting with Hiloai and Lati for a while, the shaking rhythm of the car made the three of them feel a little sleepy. Especially Dagon, who consumed a lot of energy during the battle, and later was busy dismantling the body, and had not completely calmed down to recover. So the three of them each held blankets and squeezed out a comfortable position in the carriage. After wishing each other a good dream, they sat and fell asleep.
Whenever Dagon sleeps, Star Helmet is responsible for keeping a watch. It crawled out from under Dagon's beard, climbed up to Dagon's head with its nose and face, stood up high, and looked down at the three people in the carriage. Star Helmet raised a claw to the sky and declared that it was the most powerful guy.
Finally, he was able to sleep well. Dagon used the "Yong" runner in a sitting position, and entered the middle world of the soul while maintaining his mana operation. After defeating Chimera, although he slept intermittently for a few sleeps, he did not come here once. The main reason was that his mana consumption was too much in battle, he was busy doing other things, and he had never been able to meditate and recover. Moreover, in front of a powerful witch like Shiloa, Dagon always felt that his mana circulation was too slow and he couldn't show it, and he was a little embarrassed to show it.
When I came to this dark platform surrounded by flames, Reed first applauded and congratulated him. "Win, it's great, you're very brave in battle, but I'm used to it. I congratulate you because you can think carefully and correctly before the battle, learn to analyze enemies and prefabricate plans," he said.
"Hehe, thank you." Dagon scratched his beard and felt his face blushing.
"Whether it is mana, physical strength or wound, you haven't recovered yet. Why are you in such a hurry to come here?"
Dagon's face turned redder. This time he didn't touch his beard, but scratched the back of his head. He stammered and hunched a few times, and finally let the voice return to normal: "I wiped out Chimera, can I get a reward?"
"Of course, why are you shy? I didn't learn anything else after seeing the witch, and I had a shy problem. This is not good."
"By the way! I was just thinking about eliminating Chimera before, but I forgot to ask: Why is Shiloai's spell invalid for me? I don't have any protection, and I don't even know how to resist."
"After the gods were enlightened, this is the middle world of the soul. The gods of the Jiangu tribe were watching in the spiritual realm above, and the connection was always there. How did her spells affect your soul? If the charming spells change the mind of this person after the gods were enlightened, then the gods would be embarrassed, and it would be a major loss!"
"Then I'm not afraid of spells that tempt or influence my mind?"
"It's not like that. If the spell follows your wishes and adopts a deception method, but makes you willing to obey, then the spell is still useful. The protection here is only to prevent you from being robbed, and not to protect you from being led by mistake. I am not an expert in charming spells, so I can only explain to this level. Gods are always used to letting people understand themselves, and they are nagging and not saying anything clearly. Anyway, you will be done thanking God Aoli for your blessing."
"Thank you for your blessing." Dagon hit his forehead with his right fist three times, paying tribute to him. "Then I wiped out Chimera with four heads, are you happy?"
"They all expressed satisfaction." Reed did not describe it as happy or angry, but just said it was satisfied. "The four-headed Chimera is very rare, and you have confirmed the theory of elemental head conflict, which is a very important discovery. If you pass through the temple of the Jian Gu tribe, you can report this to the ancients there, which will be beneficial to everyone."
"I'll definitely do it." Dagon nodded and asked, "Can I still choose the reward this time?"
"You won't waste your rewards on asking questions again, are you?"
Dagon shook his head: "No! No. There are no other dangerous monsters nearby, I don't ask. Uh... Actually, it's not right. I want to learn how to counter-invisibility. This invisibility is too annoying, and it's very dangerous to be touched by someone. I'll be gone with a knife at the critical point."
"Ah... this idea is much better than asking how to kill Chimera." Reed looked up at the sky, and after a few seconds, he looked at Dagon again. "What kind of anti-hidden thing do you want to learn?"
"How do others prevent invisible assassins from approaching?"
"There is a simple spell called anti-hidden alarm. When there are invisible creatures nearby, reminders will be issued. Full-time spell casters often use this method, but it mainly targets invisible spells, which cannot reveal the specific location and movement of the hidden enemy, nor can they guard against hidden enemies who do not use invisible spells." Reddard paused and added: "Anti-hidden alarm is often used in combination with other spells, and you have not laid a good foundation for mana, so just forget about spells."
"So is it okay to use runes? Is there a rune called 'anti-ignorance'?"
"There is no such thing. The combined runes can do this, but they don't apply to you. You..."
Dagon scratched his head: "I'm still far from it, right?"
"You still have a lot to learn, but you are not bad, but you have their own expertise with the caster. Some things they have put in a lot of effort to solve, you may have completed it with just one axe, and it is better than them, so don't underestimate yourself."
"Well, there is a gap, just learn. And there is more than one solution to the problem."
"The gods say that if those common and universal methods are rewarded to you, wouldn't they regard the gods as ordinary mentors? You are a member of the Jiangu tribe, and the gods of the Jiangu tribe must take care of you. They can inspire your... Jiangu tribe's abilities."
"Why did you pause?"
"You have to care about this? Do you still want anti-hidden ability?"
"I was wrong." Dagon stood at the right hand and nodded, saying, "I want it!"
"Then be prepared to learn Jiangu...short...no, earth's hearing! Yes, earth's hearing."
