Chapter 40 Dragon Veiner
While filling her stomach, Linda explained to everyone why she followed the team. Since she had already appeared, she didn't intend to hide anything anymore. She told her actions that had been following everyone for a long time.
"Is it just a matter of doing it?" Faced with Linda's explanation, the Blood-Thorn trio had to smile bitterly.
They believed Linda had no malice. After all, in the Mercenary Union, the girl in charge of the registration task had always taken good care of them and often gave them some well-paid employment tasks.
But they are not the ones who can make decisions now. Whether Linda can accept Linda's explanation depends on the meaning of Qin Lun and others. However, looking at Linda's fearless look, she probably doesn't care whether she accepts it or not.
"Mastasha, what do you think?" Qin Lun turned his head and asked the Highland Elf.
"I feel that what she said is credible. Actually, I was also puzzled at that time. The ghost-faced squid was chasing us a little slowly. I didn't expect that there was someone secretly helping me." Mastasha looked at Linda, who was covered in oily mouth, and a light flashed in her eyes, and she said with a smile.
Qin Lun and Hill looked at each other and nodded. Linda's explanation seemed to be full of flaws in their opinion. At least these two deep-minded apostles did not believe that the little girl was just on a whim and helped Sivo and the Bloodthirsty Mercenary Group with a small favor.
From the time of the time, neither Sivo nor the Blood-Spirit Corps had ever thought of going into the land of death so deeply, and also entering the claw of the trolls. If you just wanted to go around the periphery of the land of death as before, then Linda's so-called help could stand firm.
So another question arises. If it were just like this, why would Linda come to take care of them in person? Sivo and her were not related to her, but the blood-thorn trio had some friendship with her, but it was not as strong as life and death.
Of course, in fact, Linda was really just a whim and didn't have as many conspiracy theories as these two guys imagined.
Despite many questions, Qin Lun and Hill still suppressed it. One thing they believed was that Linda should not be malice. Otherwise, along the way, the little girl would have many opportunities to start, and she would not even have to do it herself. As long as they destroyed their rescue and escape operations, they would be fine.
"Miss Linda, according to what you said, there is more than you, you, behind our team, and there is another legendary bounty assassin?" Qin Lun's heart moved, and he remembered another question that the little girl said.
"Well, he followed him all the way to the entrance of the Troll's Claw." Linda tilted her head and thought for a while, suddenly frowned her beautiful eyebrows, and said with a flat mouth, "However, after I was warned, this guy seemed to have really given up. At least after passing through the Eight-Eyed Spider's cave, I couldn't feel his breath."
In fact, the bounty assassin did not give up because of Linda's warning. His attention later had shifted to Bodean's treasure. I don't know if he had obtained other clues, so he did not continue to follow.
"The last question!" Qin Lun raised a finger and asked cautiously, "We felt a powerful aura in you, which shows that your strength is indeed enough to stop the ghost-faced squid, but...what are you?"
After Qin Lun asked this, everyone's heartstrings were highly tense, and they seemed a little extra careful, except for two ordinary people, Sif and Mason.
After Linda fell from the air, she no longer concealed her breath. With the strength of Qin Lun and others, she could easily realize that this breath was a bit too huge, so huge that it was not like humans of any bloodline.
Linda seemed not to feel the strange atmosphere around her. When she heard Qin Lun’s problem, she suddenly showed a look of distress on her face. She shook her head fiercely, blinked her eyes and said pitifully: "I am a human!"
Everyone was slightly stunned, with different expressions, but one thing was very unified, that is, no one believed the little girl anymore, and they all looked like "You are cheating".
"I am really a human!" Linda sighed in annoyance, "but the bloodline of our ancestors is a bit complicated. To be precise, I am a dragon vein, a dragon vein magician!"
This time everyone understood it and realized it one after another.
Most of the dragons in the Feren continent are creatures that surpass legends. They are born with magical abilities and have extremely high physical defense, so they have almost no natural enemies.
Although they are small in number, every appearance will bring great disasters. Therefore, no other intelligent race on the continent is afraid of the dragon race, and warriors who can kill dragons will become legends of an era.
The elf king of Keldomomo, Taser, then, became the protagonist of the epic story of that era because he killed the adult red dragons in two mountains.
To this day, there are still only a few legendary figures with the title of Dragon Slayer, and the so-called Dragon Slayers chanted by some bards have only gathered to kill some sub-dragon tribes, which is incomparable to the real Dragon Slayer.
However, as the times go by, the Feren continent has changed, and humans with a large population have become the dominant players of the mainland. Many powerful ancient dragons either went to other planes, fell asleep and began to hide from the world, so as not to attract peeps from other races.
The remaining giant dragons are no longer as unscrupulous as they were in ancient times, and their tribesmen are becoming fewer and fewer.
If some giant dragons wake up from sleep, they will use the magic of dragon language to change their bodies and walk again in the world, and begin to become familiar with some changes in the world's customs and new magic knowledge during sleep.
It’s just that the dragon’s nature is lustful. When these giant dragons use human and elves to walk around the world, most of them will leave behind some of their own human-shaped descendants. This is the original origin of the dragon vein.
The dragon veins are the most elves and humans. This may be because the appearance of the elves and humans is most in line with the aesthetics of the dragon. At least no one has heard of some ugly races, such as goblins and dwarfs, who also have dragon veins.
As the dragon veins grow, they will awaken some innate abilities from their bloodlines. Both physical constitution and elemental sensitivity are several times stronger than ordinary people. They are natural spell casters, and their lifespan is comparable to that of big elves with pure bloodlines.
The aura that everyone sensed from Linda was the faint dragon aura, which also shows that although the little girl in front of her had not reached the legendary level, she still had the powerful strength to block the ghost-faced squid and the legendary assassin.
After resolving the doubts in his heart, everyone's expressions became much more relaxed. However, the three apostles in the team's eyes flashed and they were communicating in the team channel.
"This girl must have a big plot task!" Hill said with a smile.
As Qin Lun rescued Ilistin, the three apostles' moods of looking for the plot mission began to warm up again.
At this time, the task of "Bodian's Trace" received by the three people is still there, but the three people are sensitively aware that the task is about to disappear. Perhaps when they walk out of the Troll's Claw, the task will stop directly, and at that time there will be less than ten days left.
The Xia Knight Armor on Rick originally gave Qin Lun and others the idea of exploring. But this is the privacy of the knights after all. Even if they share the hardships, they may not necessarily tell them.
What's more, the Kingdom of Shaya is in the south of the mainland, and they are heading north at this time, so it's hard to say whether they can receive relevant plot tasks. However, as a dragon vein, Linda will definitely involve many important plots, and it will be easier to put effort into her.
As for killing Linda, the dragon vein, the three apostles didn't think much about it. The dragon vein is not a giant dragon after all, and compared to the plot clues they provided, it is not very valuable. Moreover, they may not be able to win against a dragon vein magician who has no idea of the depth of the strength.
Besides, Linda is now willing to become a powerful thug in the team, so why bother to cause trouble for the three apostles?
"Mastasha is a master of harpists, maybe you can test the plot!" Rand made another suggestion.
"It's not too late to talk about these things when we're safe!" Qin Lun hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Maybe you have forgotten Ilistin. In fact, why did she enter the land of death and look for me may also be a plot clue."
Hill and Rand laughed at each other, of course they didn't forget Elistin. As the elf druid who had experienced many epic plots with Qin Lun, they are naturally the biggest plot provider.
But they could see that Yilistin had a weak relationship with Qin Lun. If Qin Lun did not mention it himself, they had to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
However, when Qin Lun thought of this problem, he couldn't sit still. He sat next to the elf druid and asked in a low voice: "Ilistin, why did you come to the Land of Death?"
"After you... we all thought it was Santalin that would make a mistake. We stayed at the Baldur Gate for a while." Ilistin glanced at him and said unhappily, "But you also know that Milleras and the dwarf prince Lorraine are both carrying important responsibilities and cannot stay at the Baldur Gate for a long time. In the end, Idriya and I were left."
"Didn't that kid Milleras persuade you?" Qin Lun touched his nose awkwardly and asked strangely.
"Millerlas is very confident in you and keeps persuading me to leave first." Elistin curled his lips and said in dismay, "Now it seems that he is right. You are very lively and we are all worrying about it!"
Ilisten's eyes were a little confused, obviously falling into previous memories, "I was very worried at the time and had been looking for traces of the Santalin Society in a crazy way. Later, Idriya couldn't see it anymore, so she pulled me to join the Mercenary Union, wanting to continue inquire about your news while doing tasks to make money."
Speaking of this, the Elf Druid's eyes were a little red, "I know she was asking me to put down the burden in disguise, but I couldn't appreciate it for a long time. Finally, by chance, we learned that several members of the Santalin Society had entered the Land of Death.
It happened that at that time, Sivo issued a mission at the Mercenary Union to recruit people to enter the Land of Death... You will know everything that follows!"
