Chapter 27 The Label of the Evil Dragon
"Damn, what the hell is it?"
In the empty basement, an old mage holding a vine-wood staff roared at the ground that was cleaner than a dog licked. A dazzling elemental aura burst out from his body, looking like he was about to run away.
"How is this possible? Who has such great ability to emptie all our treasure house at once."
The two gold-level warriors who followed him were shocked and confused. No one expected that such a thing would happen. Even the legendary Galetti Trading Company, which wanted to give some face, was stolen.
"Are you two blind? What's the point? Look here, the defense of the basement was penetrated in an instant. This ability... I'm carrying a magic cannon with me."
The old mage walked to the damaged area of the treasure house, where there was still unsolidified red iron flowing.
Based on the remaining part above, the old mage roughly inferred the power of this attack, and there was no trace of fear on his face. If he had not prepared in advance and suddenly got a shot, what would happen if he had suddenly been hit.
Although guarding the treasure house is one of his responsibilities, after all, he also works for other businesses, so he doesn't have to pay his life to make a living.
"Master, what do you think you should do now?" The two golden-level guards asked the old mage carefully.
If something happens, someone will definitely take the blame and take responsibility. The highest person in charge here is the old man. His mood can be imagined. Although the two of them also have to bear some secondary responsibilities, their strength may be scolded if they are there.
"What else can I do? Report, then find someone to come and verify, see how much loss this time, and then post a reward."
The old mage snorted coldly, looking furious. Although he was glad that he didn't run into the robber in his heart, he still had to pretend what he should have.
"How do you offer a reward? We don't even know what the thief looks like."
"Just write down all the information you know and contact other businesses, I don't believe it. This bold guy will only rob our family today."
With the order of the old mage, this company was powerful and well-funded. Therefore, the company that dared to trade from the Sea of Freedom sent people to contact its peers, and the results obtained were the same as those predicted by the old mage.
Not only were their family's protection looted, but several other businesses with a small reputation in the Sea of Freedom were also robbed. Some businesses only knew it and opened the door of the basement after getting the news, and then found that the goods had been lost.
For a moment, several islands on the Hector Islands of the Sea of Freedom were opened for those well-funded Chamber of Commerce. One after another, one golden level soared into the sky, and even several soul-level mages jointly cast spells, trying to track the bold thief's trail.
But all the investigation was forcibly interrupted halfway. After using divination, mysticism, and all kinds of strange magic, there was still not much gain. It was not as good as the traces left by clues on the scene, and there were more information deduced.
"Which shadow master is so full that he has nothing to do? Don't he know what the consequences will be after offending us? Even if he can hide in the shadow, he will sooner or later be found."
This is the pitiful information obtained by the looted chamber of commerce on the Sea of Freedom after joint investigation. The thief who ransacked them was most likely a master-level shadow hunter.
Then there was nothing. They had no more information. Even the specific appearance of the thief was unknown. Through spell reconnaissance, they were all interrupted for no reason and could not continue.
As a result, this shocking robbery became a unsolved case, and it was circulating in the Sea of Freedom. However, as the thief who looted the thirteen chambers of commerce overnight did not continue to commit the crime, it gradually subsided.
...
"Tsk, if I had known these guys were so rich, I would have been a bullshit pirate and just go and be a thief."
The Third Institute of Dragon Domain, in the floating city called the City of Origin by the dragons living on the earth, Diapolo squatted in the hall of his birth, looking at the various extraordinary objects piled up in front of him, his eyes shining.
It was really shining, and there was a bright light shining in the golden dragon's eyes, full of excitement and eagerness to try.
The gains from his reckless efforts in this wave are more than the gains he has earned several times in his pirate career in a year.
Of course, it is not that thieves are so easy to do. He has done a lot of preparations for the robbery that night.
It includes not limited to investigating the details of the Chamber of Commerce, exploring the structure of their personnel, taking the time to learn architecture, and inferring the approximate location of the underground treasure house based on the buildings on the ground.
And the most important thing is that after completing this vote, you can’t get a second vote in a short period of time. Those chambers of commerce that were snatched by him will definitely increase their protection level.
Of course, it is a different story to say whether it is to be able to prevent it. After all, Shadow Shuttle, which is known by humans as a master of assassin, is as easy and natural as ordinary walking and flying.
What's more important is that his shadow shuttle ability is still in its initial stage. As he grows further, his ability will inevitably be stronger.
If you were able to resist his magic circle before, you might not be able to defend it in the future. However, when you reach that level, you don’t have to hide under the bottom and sneak in it. You can just rob it directly.
Of course, Diapolo also knew that this violent plundering method, which was revealed on the surface, was ultimately inferior in terms of wealth accumulation. Doing business and doing monopoly business is the real way to grab money.
But this kind of thing is still too far from him. After all, monopolizing in a world of gods requires enough power to support it, otherwise he would be swallowed up so that he would not even have any bones left.
"Well, Lord Diapolo, can I ask, what are you doing?"
Just as Diapolo was lying on a pile of stolen elements, Taling gathered beside Diapolo and asked curiously.
"I'm enjoying the joy of harvest." Diapolo's head raised from a pile of irritating thunder elemental crystals, and narrowed his eyes with a smile.
"Well, is it your strong collection habit that happened?" Ta Ling pondered for a moment and continued to ask.
"Absolutely, you can understand that."
“How did you get these?”
"Snatch it." Diapolo replied without any guilt. He knew what the chambers of commerce that were doing business from the Sea of Freedom were.
All the words that can be used to describe businessmen can be used on them, and it may be a little insufficient.
"Give it? There is no need to do this. Lord Diapolo, your behavior is easily labeled as an evil dragon."
"The evil dragon is just the evil dragon, I don't care. In places like the Sea of Freedom, burning, killing, looting, all seemingly bad behaviors are allowed, as long as you can survive after doing this."
As he said that, Diapolo stood up and looked at Taling, "And I am going to sleep, a dragon ready to transform. It is no wonder that it will do anything in order to obtain the resources for transformation."
"But..." Taling wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Diapolo.
"Nothing, I'm going to be ready to fall asleep now."
"..." Ta Ling swallowed the words he wanted to say back into his stomach, and then silently watched a golden scale shining, and the giant dragon with five-color spiritual patterns on the edge of the scale armor was swallowing the essence of the element.
And while eating the essence of the element, he also ate some extraordinary metal ingots refined into blocks around him from time to time. The scene looked quite terrifying.
belch!
This meal that seemed very incredible to ordinary creatures, accompanied by the burp produced by the dragon, finally ended, and the hall was in a mess.
One-third of the essence of the element, those extraordinary metal ingots used to forge weapons, and some plants with strong elements and extraordinary effectiveness... Most of the things that are considered to have a positive effect on his transformation are swallowed into their stomachs in the identification of Diapolo.
This left a considerable space in the hall, leaving only some brilliant weapons and equipment, and some various potions that were temporarily useless to him.
Hurry!
Diapolo gathered the elemental crystals that he deliberately left behind into a pile, then climbed up and lay on it comfortably.
In terms of touch, the feeling brought by these hard crystals is not wonderful, but the elements contained in it make Diapolo's body intoxicated and feel extremely comfortable.
After enjoying for a while, under the erosion of the thick elements, Diapolo adapted to his instinct, gradually closed his eyes, and officially fell into a deep sleep.
On the side, elements surged, bringing together the image of a gentle and easy-going middle-aged dragon man. The dragon man looked at Diapolo with a helpless look on his face.
"Since you choose the institute to sleep, you don't need to take the risk of snatching these cheap resources. Although the empire has collapsed, the resources stored in the institute are enough to support you to adulthood."
Taling said what he hadn't finished just now in front of Dianoa Polo who was already asleep. Fortunately, Diapolo fell asleep, otherwise he would not know how he would feel after hearing this.
"Um?"
The Taling, who was still helpless, made a sound of surprise, because he saw the elemental fog lingering in the body of Diapolo, pouring into his body at an exaggerated speed.
"This kind of metamorphosis consumption is a bit over-the-counter."
Tallinn Guanghui stared at Diapolo, thought carefully for a while, and waved his hand gently. The original element concentration was ten times that of the Dragon Domain's atmosphere shone, and the element concentration rose at a speed that could be clearly perceived.
Chapter completed!
