Chapter 122 Dragon Slayer!
The night was dark.

Thick smoke billowed from Changhu Town, and the flames shot into the sky.

The dragon Smaug is dead.

The source of terror hovering over the heads of the residents of Changhu Town finally disappeared.

The fear of fleeing in the hearts of the residents was a little less urgent.

Fortunately, all the houses and buildings in Changhu Town were built on the water.

Even if the entire Changhu Town has been burned into a sea of ​​flames, as long as they stay on the waterway, they are still safe.

For the time being, there was no death threat hanging overhead.

The order of the residents who were squeezed into the main waterway quickly improved a lot.

One ferry after another quickly rowed out of Long Lake Town.

The originally crowded waterway became empty at the speed seen.

When the residents fled one after another, the houses in the town that were lit by the flames of the dragon's breath began to gradually burn to the end.

A large number of burning sticks and pieces brought fire, and even the entire room was continuously burned and collapsed into the long lake below.

Even the temperature of Changhu Lake, which was originally full of floating ice and cold, has risen a lot.

Especially in the central waters of Longhu Town, which is surrounded by fire.

In front of a house that collapsed badly but was not ignited by flames.

On the slightly rippling water, suddenly, a head emerged from the water.

The figure with its head exposed immediately swam to the nearby pier.

Soon, he swam to the shore and climbed onto the small pier. The drenched figure sat slumped on the pier with his back leaning against the wooden stake, panting heavily, and took out a pack of dried pork and adult meat from the silver space ring in his hand. A palm-sized iron bottle of spirits.

At this moment, the figure chewing jerky and drinking spirits was naturally Morgan.

over an hour ago.

He and Bud teamed up to kill the dragon Smaug with the black arrow.

Then, Morgan, who jumped off the bell tower in time to escape, found the place where Smaug fell into the water under the instructions of others.

Then, Morgan began his more than an hour-long hard work of pulling out the dragon's fur, no, it was the hard work of pulling out the dragon's scales.

"Gollum."

After ruthlessly chewing a large handful of pork jerky and swallowing it, Morgan picked up the iron flagon and took a big gulp.

Feeling the spicy spirit entering his throat and stomach, Morgan's spirit couldn't help but shake.

The cold body that soaked in the lake water for a long time also warmed up a bit.

The dried meat and spirits were given by the bloated mayor of Changhu yesterday when he practiced for the expedition team.

There was no one else around at this time, and Morgan didn't need to pay attention when he used the dimensional space ring.

He ate most of the package of jerky in one go, and drank an iron bottle of spirits.

Morgan finally felt a little fuller and more comfortable.

Look at the silver space ring on his left hand.

Morgan sniffed a little.

The originally empty space of the ring has changed drastically.

The length, width and height of the entire ring space should be about five meters, and the overall space is equivalent to the size of a room.

At this time, a corner of the space was filled with a large amount of gold, silver and gemstones of various colors.

On the top of the treasure is a bright star necklace inlaid with top-quality white gemstones.

In another adjacent corner, there was a long cross sword, two longbows looted from the Changhu town armory, and two to three hundred arrows that could fill ten quiveres.

In the third corner, there are piles of hard dark red scales the size of a palm, which can make a dull sound like steel when knocked by hand.

This is the result of Morgan's efforts to dive into the cold long lake for more than an hour.

There are more than 200 slices in total, all of which were taken out by Morgan holding his breath in the water with a dagger on Smaug's huge corpse, and some of them still had blood on them.

However, these palm-sized scales were not all over Smaug's body.

Only in Smaug's most important and most vulnerable abdomen is there growth.

As for other places, the scales growing on Smaug's back, tail, wings, neck and other places are not only half smaller than the scales on the abdomen, but also occupy all the positions of Smaug's huge body except the abdomen.

But Morgan didn't intend to remove those scales.

Because it is difficult to operate in the dark under deep water, and because the scales are smaller and harder to get.

In comparison, the larger scales on Smaug's abdomen are much more valuable and easier to remove.

No matter how hard Morgan worked, he was determined to squeeze out all the scales.

He had only now removed about half of the scales on Smaug's belly with the dagger.

When the other half was finished, he estimated that there should be four to five hundred scales.

Morgan hadn't been able to remove anything else from Smaug so far except for the scales.

Hey, let's talk about this.

Morgan was very upset.

If Smaug fell on the land, Morgan would dismember the body no matter what, nothing wasted.

Now it has fallen to the bottom of Changhu Town, which is five or six meters deep.

Morgan is powerless.

In the water, dragon blood definitely doesn't matter.

The dragon scale, he could only remove the dragon scale from the belly of Smaug's corpse.

As for the dragon whip, I heard that the dragon whip is hidden under the abdomen.

He fumbled in the dark for a while in the water before, but couldn't find it.

But Morgan didn't give up, he was going to wait until later after prying the dragon scales, and then look for it.

As for dragon meat, this is relatively simple.

Morgan was about to cut off one of Smaug's rear legs.

As for more, even if Morgan can cut it off, there is no place to put it.

The spirit exits the ring space.

Morgan put away the remaining jerky, picked up the iron jug, and drank the last sip of spirits.

Look up to the east.

A hazy white glow began to appear in the eastern sky.

It is not far from dawn.

I have to speed up.

Looking away, Morgan stood up, patted his face, and jumped into the water again.

Swim to the previous position, then get into the water and dive down.

It is very hard and dangerous to work under the long lake which is five or six meters deep.

It is night now, and the bottom of the water is completely dark.

Morgan pried the scales off Smaug almost entirely by feel.

Fortunately, after his spirit is strengthened now, his five senses have been strengthened a lot.

Otherwise, I dare not easily drill into the bottom of the lake late at night.

Who knows if there are any other ferocious creatures growing in Long Lake in such a world.

Morgan is also somewhat fortunate.

Smaug's body fell in the shallow water where the residents of Long Lake Town lived.

If it falls in the deep water outside.

At least hundreds of meters, or even hundreds of meters deep lake bottom.

With Morgan holding his breath once, he can only support ten minutes at most.

I'm afraid Morgan can only look at the lake and sigh.

Although he didn't know how deep the deep water area of ​​Long Lake was.

But with the huge scale of Long Lake (from the entrance of the woodland kingdom to Long Lake Town, it takes a day to go by Bud Ferry), and its long history of existence.

Morgan estimates that the depth of the center of Long Lake is at least a few hundred meters or more.

Two hours later.

When the sky is bright in the east.

The fire in the surrounding Changhu Town also gradually subsided.

Morgan emerged from the water again.

After trying his best to swim to the small pier on the shore, Morgan lay down on the dirty wooden planks of the cold pier and took a rest panting.

He is too tired.

In one breath, all the scales under Smaug's abdomen were wiped clean.

Then I searched for the dragon whip for a while.

It's just that Smaug didn't know whether he didn't hang it or hid it too deeply.

In short, Morgan's idea of ​​tasting the dragon whip fell through.

He failed to find Smaug's whip.

Finally, when he cut off the flesh, that is, when he cut off a small hind leg of Smaug.

It should be attracted by the scattered blood.

He was attacked by several huge, ferocious fish.

Fortunately, Morgan possesses the special skill "Spiritual Shock".

Use "spiritual shock" to drive away fierce fish.

Only then did Morgan speed up cutting Smaug's hind legs.

Even one of Smaug's relatively small hind legs was as big as Morgan's entire body.

Use the elven sword to cut off Smaug's hind legs, and put them back into the dimension ring space.

Morgan's mental strength finally ran out again.

Originally, he thought of knocking out some of Smaug's teeth to play with.

But his mental strength was in a hurry, and he didn't dare to stay underwater for longer, for fear of being attacked by other creatures at the bottom of the lake.

Then he got out of the water in a hurry and swam ashore.

But even so.

Morgan also had a bumper harvest this time.

In addition to those gains mentioned above.

He also removed the black arrow that had gone into Smaug's belly.

And the two longest barbed horns on Smaug's huge hideous head.

"call"

After taking a long breath, Morgan sat up suddenly.

Immediately, two half-meter-long dark red pointed horns appeared in his hand.

The texture is rough and heavy to the touch.

These are the two on Smaug's head, which might be good for making daggers later on.

He had already thought of the name, and it was called "Dragon Bone Dagger".

It was already dawn.

Morgan put away the dark red pointed horns, stood up and looked around.

At this time, the open flames in the entire Changhu Town were almost extinguished, leaving only the various wreckages that were burned black and smoked.

Changhu Town, which used to be full of houses, burned down overnight, and the line of sight immediately became empty.

Morgan could see the nearest lake to the wreck, where a large crowd had gathered.

Needless to say, it must be the Changhu Town refugees who survived last night.

He turned and took one last look at the surface of the water where Smaug was.

Morgan was ready to leave.

He took all the most valuable things from the dragon Smaug.

He is not going to waste time here anymore.

at this time.

"Morgan."

A voice suddenly came from behind.

Morgan turned his head, and saw a man standing on a small boat in the distance behind him, holding an oar and looking at this side.

Who is not Bud.

"Hey, Bud."

Morgan immediately reached out to greet him.

Sure enough, last night he was able to escape Smaug's out-of-control impact.

Bud can do the same.

Watching Bud rowing the boat slowly approaching.

Morgan smiled and said, "I'm glad to see you, I knew you were fine last night."

Bud shook his head: "Morgan, I'm not very happy to see you. I've been looking for you all night. Where did you hide?"

"I won't let you look for it in vain, here, give you something."

Morgan said indifferently, reaching out his hand and taking out a huge black and slender steel arrow hidden beside him: the black arrow.

Bud's eyes lit up immediately when he saw the black arrow.

At this time, the boat docked, and Bud jumped out of the boat immediately, took the black arrow and asked Morgan, "Have you gone to find Smaug?"

"where is it?"

Morgan turned around, pointed to the calm lake not far behind and said, "There, it's just below."

Bud looked in the direction of Morgan's finger. At this moment, there was nothing to be seen on the water except for the surviving unburned houses that left traces when Smaug fell down.

Seeing that Bud didn't intend to go into the water, Morgan said, "Why don't you go down and have a look, it's not too deep."

Bud shook his head: "Smaug is dead, and I only need the black arrow, there is no need to go down."

"Let's go."

Bud said and walked towards the boat.

Morgan nodded without speaking.

Also, the black arrow is the most important thing to Bard, because it has a special meaning.

Now that Black Arrow has been fished out by himself and handed over to him, there is really no need to look at Smaug.

Bud's mind is much purer than his own.

Morgan didn't care either, he was different from Bud.

Picking up a huge package, Morgan followed onto the boat.

Inside the package were a small amount of dragon scales and a large piece of dragon meat.

It was Morgan who temporarily got it out of the ring space when Bud rowed over to pick him up.

He was going to give Bud and his three kids a try.

After all, there is no Bud.

Smaug was very difficult for Morgan to deal with alone.

Even with black arrows.

This was his deep feeling after facing the evil dragon Smaug in person last night.

What's more, Bud's three children still call him uncle.

The two rowed the boat towards the crowd gathered by the long lake in the distance.

It was bright day.

The morning mist has not cleared yet.

The boat that Morgan and Bud were rowing finally landed.

It's just that I have just experienced such a disaster as the dragon raging.

The atmosphere on the shore is dignified.

There are overturned boats, all kinds of furniture and clothing, and corpses everywhere by the water.

Someone is rummaging around for dead bodies;

Someone is holding the dead body and crying loudly;
Someone yelled for their loved ones;

At this time, all the surviving people on the shore of Changhu Town were shrouded in deep sadness.

Bain Xuege and the three brothers and sisters of Tilda were looking around the shore at this time, shouting everywhere.

"dad."

"dad."

"dad."

Tilda looked worried, looked at her brother beside her and asked, "Bahn, why do you think we can't find Dad?"

Bahn immediately turned his head, comforted his sister and said, "Don't worry, Dad will be fine."

Just when the three brothers and sisters were looking for their father by the lake.

Morgan and Bud had disembarked and were making their way to shore.

Looking at the miserable situation by the lake, neither of them spoke.

at this time.

A fierce quarrel suddenly came from the front.

The two looked up and saw not far ahead.

Alford, the despicable clerk who was dressed in black from head to toe like a raven, was pulling with a middle-aged woman at this time.

Just as Morgan was about to say something, he saw that Bud beside him had strode over with an angry expression on his face.

Morgan followed quickly.

The clerk and the middle-aged woman had a fierce quarrel.

Seeing that Ai Fude was about to do it.

Bud took the lead in grabbing Everd's hand one by one, and threw it aside.

Morgan came up at this moment.

He wasn't as good-tempered as Bud.

He went straight to the clerk, raised his hand and slapped him.

"Snapped!"

A crisp slap suddenly sounded.

Morgan slapped Alfred directly to the ground.

The quarrel between the former clerk and the middle-aged woman had already attracted the attention of many people around.

At this time, with the addition of Morgan and Bud, the movement was still so loud that it immediately attracted the attention of everyone nearby.

In the crowd, an old man saw Bud and Morgan, his eyes widened immediately, and he shouted excitedly: "It's them!"

"It was Bud and him who killed the dragon!"

"I saw it with my own eyes!"

"I also remembered that it was the two of them."

"The two of them stood on the bell tower, and I saw them kill the dragon with my own eyes!"

"I saw it too, it's Bud, and him!"

"Does anyone know what his name is?"

"His name seems to be Morgan. I heard Bud's youngest daughter say it."

"."

Listening to the excited and cheering voices of the surrounding Changhu Town residents.

Morgan sighed in his heart: "I have finally been recognized, and the identity of the dragon slayer has been stabilized."
