Chapter 17: Christina(1/2)

The dragon clan is divided into the Golden Dragon Clan and the Black Dragon Clan, which is just a major category. Strictly speaking, dragons are far more than two major categories: Golden Dragon and Black Dragon Clan. In addition to the Golden Dragon Clan and the Black Dragon Clan, there are also the Ocean Dragon Clan. However, the Ocean Dragon Clan lives in the depths of the ocean and has very few opportunities to show their faces, so even in humans, it is rarely mentioned.

Within the Golden Dragon, in addition to the most iconic and powerful golden dragon, there are also silver dragons and green dragons.

Within the black dragon, in addition to the black dragon, red dragon, green dragon and poisonous dragon can also be divided into red dragons.

Even the marine dragon clan is divided into blue dragon, blue dragon, purple dragon...

Very few people have truly seen all kinds of dragons, even the dragon clan itself. After all, the dragon clan doesn't like to live in other races, and they are isolated from each other and have almost no contact. Most of the people who claim to have some understanding of the dragon clan are actually just hearing the truth. Some have even just read the relevant classics.

Andrew obviously belongs to this. He has seen an introduction to the dragon clan in ancient elves, and knows that there is a green dragon, which belongs to the Golden Dragon clan. He knows that there is a blue dragon, which belongs to the Black Dragon clan. However, Andrew does not know that the so-called green dragon of the Golden Dragon clan is actually gold with green light, which is essentially gold. The so-called black dragon clan blue is dark green. Christina is actually neither.

...

"Haunted? Are you saying there are undead right? The mission we received is that there are undead."

"Uh... I can say that. Anyway, there will be a lot of cunning voices coming out at night. Some people say that they have seen ghosts here. The bad thing is that this was a cemetery in the past. So, now everyone says that this place is haunted. Now it has become the haunted house in Lin Lopez. "

Andrew looked at the house in the distance.

The three-story main building and two-story auxiliary buildings look like there are at least one or two hundred rooms. In terms of building scale, it is even larger than an ordinary castle. It is surrounded by the gardens belonging to this house, full of garden plants of various colors.

Such houses are rare in Linlopez. Not only Linlopez, but also in the whole north. It’s not that the house is a big problem. The key is plants. With so many garden plants, it takes a lot of artificial energy to take care of such a place where the climate is not very good in the north.

Turning back, he looked at the white-haired old man standing in front of him again.

Although he was old, he was quite big, with a big waist and a round waist. His fist was as big as Andrew. His face was covered with a big beard, and a robe made of rough cloth... the thread was opened, and he felt like an ordinary civilian.

Of course, as one of the local richest people in Lin Lopez, he still has something different on his body, such as a ruby ​​ring as big as a pigeon egg and a gold necklace as thick as two fingers.

"Mr. Eugene." Andrew said softly, "So you want us to help you drive away the undead here. Is that what it means? I saw that the bounty on it is two hundred gold coins. Just to deal with some weak undeads, the price seems to be a bit too high."

"You've found the point, Mr. Trudeau." The bearded Eugene laughed.

"Sorry, Mr. Eugene. I've just said that I'm not True. My name is Conrad."

"Is this not important? What is your name not important at all. Anyway, you are from the Blood Elves and Dragon Mercenary Group." Eugene, the bearded man, reached out and grabbed his big belly, and continued: "The price is indeed high. In fact, I only wanted to produce ten gold coins, but the people in the Adventurer Hall told me that ten gold coins were less than the level 6 mercenary group. So, I can only change it to two hundred gold coins. I will be very happy if you are willing to reduce the price."

"We don't have such a plan, sir." Andrew spread his hands.

"Okay, let's get to the point." Eugene, the bearded, took a deep breath and said with a depressed look: "Actually, I've already looked for other mercenaries before, and I've found three. The first one told me that they didn't find anything, but I still received my deposit. The second one was a liar, they told me that it had been solved, but in fact it was not. The third one joined me to lie and said that it had been solved... Then, people didn't believe it. Okay, after hearing this, you must have understood that my purpose is not to solve the problem. God knows how to solve it, but I don't know anyway, and I don't expect you to know. My purpose is to make everyone believe that the problem has been solved so that I can sell the house. Do you understand what I mean?"

Andrew and Christina looked at the bearded Eugene in amazement.

Seeing that the two of them didn't react, Eugene quickly continued, "I saw you in the newspaper, and now the whole of Linlopez is talking about you. You are a popular mercenary group, especially Miss Christina, you are a green dragon."

Christina nodded.

"The dragon clan has dragon power, and it is the kind of thing that can run away within a few kilometers of the surrounding area, no matter what creatures or ghosts are."

"It's because of Dragon Power, but not that powerful. Sir." Christina quickly explained.

"This is not important, it's not important. Anyway, others believe it." Eugene spread his hands and said, "You stay here for one night. I will ask the newspaper staff to come and interview you tomorrow morning. As long as you tell them that the ghost has been driven away by you, I can sell the house very quickly. Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't live here, as long as you appear tomorrow. I mean... can the commission be cut in half?"

"No." Andrew replied expressionlessly.

Christina looked at Andrew carefully.

...

"I think this is wrong. He is asking us to lie with him and coax others." Christina said: "This is wrong. If we haven't driven out the ghosts here, we shouldn't tell everyone that we have already driven out."

"He just wanted to sell the house, maybe it was a high price." Andrew spread his hands and said, "This task is really too easy for us. We only need to stay for one night and get two hundred gold coins. And even if there are ghosts later, we can say that we didn't find them when we were there. Maybe the ghosts are afraid of us, who knows?"

Christina looked at Andrew with a gaze.

Helplessly, Andrew had to change his words and said, "Well, I used to be a mercenary leader with a sense of justice, and I would definitely not do such a detrimental thing. However, we can still follow this task, but we need to find out the source of the weird sound within one night. If it is a ghost, expel it."

"Yeah." Christina nodded happily.

Walking to the side, Andrew stretched out a hand and shook Eugene: "Mr. Eugene, our leader has decided to take on this task. We will handle everything."

"Thank you so much!" Eugene finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "After that, can't the commission really be reduced?"

"cannot."

...

After dinner, Andrew lit a fire in the fireplace in the living room of the house, illuminating the entire living room in a dim red color. He leisurely held the newspaper and sat on the sofa to read.

Christina lit a candle and kept walking around, from the balcony to the cellar, every place. In the end, there was no other way, so she could only go back to the living room and sit next to Andrew.

Putting down the newspaper, Andrew asked softly, "How is it? Have you found anything?"

"No, nothing was discovered." Christina blinked at Andrew: "Or, Mr. Trudeau go and see it? Maybe you will find it when you go?"

"Maybe we should stay here and wait. The employer said there were strange noises, but we didn't hear them. This means we definitely couldn't find them."

"Not found, what should we do?"

"Maybe you can try to put a dragon power. If there are really no dead, the dragon power will definitely be useful."

"And what? How do we determine if the undead was scared away by me?"

"I can't confirm. If there is really a dead soul, you will have solved it after you release the Dragon Power. If there is no dead soul... Even if there is a problem, it's not our problem. Let's wait for the sound." Andrew silently picked up the newspaper and continued reading. Leaving Christina alone, he was struggling.

Time passes by bit by bit.

Gradually, it was already late at night.

The house was still quiet, with only the sound of wind outside the window. There was not even the sound of snakes, insects, rats and ants at night. After all, this is winter.

After reading the newspaper, Andrew simply draped his blanket and fell asleep on the sofa in the living room. Christina walked back and forth in the living room anxiously.

"Ao~——!Ao…Ao~——!"

Suddenly, a strange sound came, like a howl of some kind of beast, or like a crying sound of a person. Continuously.

Andrew suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.

Christina was filled with joy: "Voice! It's a weird sound!"

Without saying a word, Andrew directly cast the wind magic and rushed towards the direction of the sound at an extremely fast speed.

The sound came from the yard.

Immediately afterwards, he saw a shadow in the yard, climbing over the wall, as if he wanted to escape.

Another short spell. A gust of wind, like an invisible hand, directly wrapped the black shadow, pulled him back and pulled him directly into the air.

"Let me down-! Let me down! I dare not!"

"Okay, it's a person. Not a dead soul." Andrew slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

He snapped his fingers gently, and the man fell in front of Andrew with a "snap", half of his body was trapped in the snow.

He struggled to get up from the snow pile.

Under the moonlight, you can clearly see that he was a boy, about fifteen or sixteen years old. He had short hair and was wearing shabby clothes.

At this point, Christina rushed to the yard and watched in horror.

Squatting in front of him, Andrew asked softly, "Say, who are you? Why do you do this?"

"I...I, I just want to scare him."

"Who are you scared?"

“Yu…Eugene.”

"But he doesn't live here."

"I know."

"Then you said you would scare him?"

When Andrew questioned, the boy was obviously a little confused. His eyes kept going back and forth between Andrew and Christina.

After a while, he whispered: "I don't want him to sell the house."

"Why?"

"This house should have been mine, but he used a bastard to trick him! He..."

Oh, it sounds like a period of grudges and revenge that falls in the wealthy family.

Before he could finish speaking, Andrew had already grabbed his collar and dragged it in.

"No! He is such a bad guy! You shouldn't help him!"

"We are only responsible for completing the tasks. Whether he is a bad guy or not is the problem between you."

"No, don't do this! Don't give me to him! He will beat me to death! I won't dare to do it anymore!"

The boy begged.

Christina stood aside and looked silently.

Dragging into the room, Andrew threw him aside.

"Why did three teams of mercenaries come before, but they didn't catch you?"

"Because... I don't come every night. Sometimes I overslept..."

"Then why didn't you oversleep tonight?"
