Lord of Hyranza

Surdak went to the wall and washed the blood off his hands in the copper basin.
Turning to Mrs. Dorn, who was in charge of taking care of the Dorn knight, and the two maids: "When he wakes up, you can give him some liquid food. Remember that the wound should not be wet with water, and don't move around so as not to tear the wound. If it goes well, After these three days, I should be able to pass this dangerous period, and after three days, I will come back to check on his injury."
Dawn, who was wounded in the abdomen, was lying on the bed, his face pale.
Suldak had blessed him with the 'Divine Blessing Body', his complexion looked pretty good, his breathing became steady, and his wound was healing rapidly.
The Dornish knight's wife was very young, with tears still hanging on her eyelashes, she couldn't stop thanking Suldak at this moment.
When the Dornish knight was on duty near the arena during the day, he was accidentally attacked by a sand wolf that had escaped from the arena. He rushed to the guard camp in time to save the knight from death.
After being carried back to the guard camp, he fell into a coma due to his injuries.
The companions of the Dornish knight wanted to go to the village of Vol, seeking Suldak's help in this scene.
However, the Dornish Knight was very lucky, just in time for Suldak to come to the guard battalion to apply for funds for the establishment of the squadron. It can only be said that the Dornish Knight was favored by the goddess of luck.
The fellow knights in the same group as the Dorn knights stood at the door of the room and expressed their thanks to Suldak who came out of the room.
It was the young knight who met Suerdak from the stairs just now, this time he ran back from outside the guard camp again panting, holding a beautiful wooden box in his hand, the young knight handed the wooden box to Su Erdak, and said to him: "Baron Surdak, wait a minute! . . . This is for you."
Suerdak accepted the wooden box suspiciously. This wooden box looked big, but it didn't weigh much.
"What is this?" Suldak asked the young knight suspiciously.
"According to the rules, I will pay you..." the young knight said with a 'hehe' smile.
Hailansa people are used to opening the gift box in front of the person who gave the gift, and Suldak quickly lifted the lid of the wooden box, and inside it was a delicate specimen of the head of a blue ice deer, with huge antlers and an inlaid forehead. The blue spar is very well preserved, it seems that the head of this blue ice deer has been made into a very delicate handicraft.
"Oh, it looks good!" Surdak praised.
Apparently the young knight knew his preference, so he specially sent a box of such monster specimens.
Seeing that Suldak readily accepted it, the young knight breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't wait to run upstairs to see the Dorn knight.
……
Suldak put the wooden box into his magic pocket, then went downstairs and walked into Captain Sauron's office along the wooden corridor.
It was almost time for the changing of the guard, and the knights in the guard battalion had already started to leave one after another. The rooms on both sides of the corridor seemed very quiet. Captain Sauron was about to get up, and the assistant next to him had already taken off the armor from the wooden frame and was about to prepare for it. Help him put it on.
Seeing Suldak walk in, Captain Sauron returned to his seat and said to Suldak: "Did someone talk about you just now, saying that you were called to treat the injured knight just after you showed up in the guard camp? "
Suldak said: "I happened to meet you!"
"What do you want me to do?" Captain Sauron asked Suldak.
Suldak said very euphemistically: "As for the Pagros Mountain Guard Battalion Squadron, I came here this time to ask you to help me approve some funds for the formation of the Pagros Mountain Guard Battalion Squadron..."
He felt that Captain Sauron might not immediately agree to this matter, and there must always be a process of discussion and research.
Unexpectedly, Captain Sauron directly took out a piece of parchment from the drawer, and the content on it was already filled in. Captain Sauron just signed his name on it, and handed the parchment to After leaving Suldak, he said with a smile: "I also said that it's already at this time, why haven't I seen you come to ask for money, this formation fund can be used freely, but every expense needs to be clearly and detailedly listed The list must be handed in at the end of the year, but...the money must be spent before the end of the year, I don't care what name you use, I need reasonable documents."
"Yes, Captain Sauron." Suldak straightened his body and readily agreed.
After talking about this matter, Captain Sauron asked Suldak again: "By the way, where are you going to recruit knights from to form the Paglos Mountain Guard Battalion Squadron?"
"I haven't thought about it yet. It is estimated that none of the knights in the guard camp are willing to go to the barren land."
"I suggest that you recruit those college students from the Knight Academy. Although their combat power is a bit weaker and they don't even have any combat experience, these college students also have some advantages. They have strong plasticity, and the most important thing is that they are very obedient."
"Where to recruit knights, I haven't decided yet. The barren land is too remote, and there may not be many choices." Suldak said with a slight smile.
He wants to recruit some veterans, but recently, plane wars have broken out frequently, and few soldiers have returned from the Warsaw plane recently.
Obtaining the approval note from Captain Sauron, Suldak walked out of the guard camp, Aphrodite waited outside, and the two rushed to the Military Supply and Logistics Department of the City Hall together. After work, a large number of white-collar workers from the city hall came out of the gate. They chatted and invited each other, and it seemed that most of them had a rich nightlife.
The Logistics Department is the only place where shifts need to be handed over at the city hall. The Department also collects various magic materials from the society. In addition, it involves matters such as exchanging military merits. Things are very complicated, so it is very busy every day. Night.
Suldak walked into the hall of the city hall and saw that there were still many people lined up in the office hall of the Military Supply and Logistics Department. Many members of the adventure group were sometimes willing to deliver some magic materials here, although the price was a little lower than the market price. , but the logistics office accepts everything.
Standing at the tail of the line waiting in line at the military supply department, Suldak and Aphrodite stood together, and a member of the adventure group in front of the line turned his head in a thief, and said with a smile to Aphrodite : "Hey, knight, how did you join the guard battalion at such a young age?"
"..."
Aphrodite turned her back to the man and rolled her eyes, but after turning around, she showed a shy smile that belonged to a young knight, and nodded politely to the member of the adventure group .
The member of the adventure group looked at Aphrodite in amazement, opened his mouth, and continued to ask excitedly: "Why don't you think about it and join our adventure group, not only can you travel all over the world, but you can also improve yourself?" Combat skills are much better than you dawdling in the guard camp."
"Uh, I think I still prefer to stay in the guard camp..." Aphrodite held back the smile on her face, and glanced at Suldak who was standing aside.
The member of the adventure group glanced at Suldak and found the noble badge on his chest, so he didn't say anything more, just said lightly: "Perhaps you still don't know how colorful life in the adventure group is, One day you'll understand...you made a wrong decision."
The member of the adventure group was still thinking about how to persuade him tactfully, but his companion suddenly pushed his shoulder and said in a low voice:
"Hey, stop talking, look over there... That is the new Chief Intelligence Officer, Viscount Darcy Christie. I heard that Marquis Bernard Christie intends to make her the next heir of the Christie family..."
Suldak was slightly taken aback, followed the direction of the adventure group member's fingers, and just happened to see that familiar slender figure with red hair tied into a ponytail, wearing a black nightsaber skin magic pattern structure, waist There were two crimson long swords hanging in the middle, and he led a group of men through the hall and walked towards the work window of the military supplies department. The people on the left and right sides consciously stepped aside.
Baron Armand Bulwer, whom Suldak had only seen once, was standing in the window of the quarters hall. Dacie Christie seemed to say something to him, then turned and left, leaving only a gloomy expression on his face. Baron Armand Bulwer.
It wasn't until Darcy Christie walked out of the gate of the city hall that Baron Armand Bulwer had a gloomy face and slammed the counter with his fist.
The colleague beside him hastily pushed him and signaled him to go to the container to rest for a while...
Suldak didn't expect to see such a scene. He turned his head and saw the gate leading to the city hall. Dacie Christie's back had long since disappeared at the gate.
After receiving [-] gold coins from the quartermaster, Suldak suddenly discovered that the money given by the guard battalion was obviously not enough to form a squadron of knights from the guard battalion.
A squadron needs sixty war horses alone. The price of Gu Bolai war horses on the market is at least seven gold, and the price of Gu Bolai war horses around three years old is as high as ten gold. It would cost almost [-] gold coins. Fortunately, the logistics department of the guard battalion could receive standard armor and weapons. As for the resettlement cost of the knights of the guard battalion in the barren land, Suldak might have to find a way by himself.
As soon as he walked out of the city hall, Suldak realized that he might have wronged Captain Sauron.
Captain Sauron suggested that he should try his best to select fresh graduates from the Knight Academy. Now it seems that there is some reason. At least these young knights already have their own horses in the academy. If they don’t need to prepare horses, the five hundred The gold coins are only used as a resettlement fee, and for the remote Wall Village, no matter what the expenses are, it is enough.
Suldak is also planning to exchange some cheap whole-wheat flour at the quartermaster office. These cheap grains from the south of the empire are at least [-]% lower than the price of local wheat in Hailansa City.But the exchange of wheat flour is not today, because Aphrodite's summoning time is coming soon.
Suldak had to find a hidden place and be ready to pass through the void gate at any time. Compared with a dark alley, Suldak still felt that the room in the Plaza Garden Hotel was more reliable.
……
Suldak came out of the void, and the air was filled with a strong smell of sulfur again, and there was a layer of finely divided volcanic ash floating in the air.
He stood in the tent for a while, and couldn't help touching the money bag on his waist. The money bag with five hundred gold coins suddenly became bulging. This kind of summoning teleportation is really quite convenient and fast.
Andrew heard the movement in the tent outside, opened the leather curtain of the tent, saw Suldak standing inside, and asked, "Is Hailansa going well?"
"Fortunately, all the salamander meat is sold, let's take a rest tonight, and tomorrow we will continue to explore the lava mine!" Surdak opened the curtain and walked outside the camp.
At this moment, it happened to be sunset on the side of the sulfur mine camp, and the sky on the side of the pustule mountain was covered with a thick layer of volcanic ash, so the sun could not be seen at sunset, and only a dark red cloud could be seen on the horizon.
Samira was standing on a protruding volcanic rock, her face was covered with a kerchief, and when she saw Surdak coming out of the tent, she asked, "What is the result of the identification about those red crystals? "
Standing under the volcanic rock, Suldak and Andrew said to Samira:
"It's worse than we expected. These red crystals are not in the category of magic crystals. They can only be sold to jewelry craftsmen to make ordinary jewelry. However, another news is that these crystal clusters have a certain ability to regenerate, which means that even if We collected them all, as long as the foundation of the spar cluster is left, these red crystals will grow slowly..."
Samira's eyes widened, and she asked curiously, "How long will it take to grow?"
"Uh, I really didn't ask about this, ten years... or 100 years." Suldak said with some uncertainty.
More than 600 kobold slaves in the camp are eating dinner. Every day, they either have multigrain porridge or multigrain cakes. Some vegetables such as cabbage, onions, and pumpkins are regularly shipped over from Wall Village. Only when the ogres are around , is the happiest time for the kobold slaves, because whenever this time, as long as the ogre Gullitum hunts, basically the ogre will eat the meat, and the kobold slaves will drink the soup.
There were still some salamander bones cooking in the big iron pot, and there was a thick layer of fat floating on the milky white broth. This time, the ogre only ate two pieces of salamander ribs and some shaved meat. Bones, including a huge liver in the belly of the salamander. As for the remaining broth, it is the extra meal that the ogre gave to the slaves of the kobolds. While dancing a simple tribal dance.
As the team entered the lava mine again, this time Suldak brought a group of kobold slaves. He asked these kobold slaves to mine the red crystals at the entrance of the lava mine. The red crystals should not be damaged. The root of the cluster so that the red crystal can continue to grow later.
Suldak and his security team continued to explore the depths of the mine.
This mine does not go straight into the hinterland of the pustule mountain. It has a certain arc, more like spiraling down the pustule mountain. There are clusters of red crystals everywhere along the way, and occasionally there are some lava flows. This lava mine has been in a dim light.
I couldn't find a salamander when I went in for a long distance, but the reserves of these red crystals are amazing, and the few sulfur mines in the lava cave are only a thin line mixed in the stone wall, and this line seems to be It was excavated by something, leaving only deep gaps.
Suldak guessed that the salamanders should have done it. They almost gnawed away all the sulfur in the cave, and then they walked out of the lava cave along the veins and drilled into the lava river.
This lava mine is very large. Although there are always some lava pools, the air inside is not stuffy.
Suldak's team walked more than ten kilometers inside, but they still couldn't find the end of the lava mine. Instead, they found a sleeping salamander behind a cluster of red crystals. This salamander There was a strong fire elemental aura shining all over his body, and the dangerous aura emanating from his body was far more dangerous than any salamander he had met before.
The team hid behind a stone pillar. Suldak, Andrew, and Samira looked at each other, and found each other's judgment on the salamander from each other's eyes...
This salamander should not be a second-level monster, but the aura exuding from it is more like a third-level monster.
Chapter 594 Red Dragon Treasure
The light in the lava mine is a bit dim, only the fire in the magma pool reflects the light reflected from the red crystal clusters.
The salamander was sleeping behind the cluster of red crystals. It was surrounded by the strong fire elemental breath, and only the corner of its head was exposed. If you look closely, you will find that its skin is covered with shards of red crystals The stone is raised, and the red crystal fragments seem to grow on its skin, even with sharp edges and corners.
And a row of sharp red crystal blades grew on its spine and joints of its limbs, which looked hideous and terrifying.
Suldak motioned to Andrew with his eyes and gestures, asking him to go around to the other side of the lava mine and cut off the Salamander's back path.
At this time, Samira stepped on the cluster of red crystals and climbed up to a ledge on the top of the stone pillar. The angle of view here is just right to look down on the salamander. Holding the painting of withering in his hand, he drew out three feathered arrows and placed them on the back of the bow. The right arm that pulled the bowstring clearly seeped a trace of mana fluctuations, and Samira's light red color was tinged with sternness.
Suldak retreated behind the stone pillar, blocking the exit of the cave, and waved at the ogre. Gulitum couldn't hold back his urgency long ago, opened his mouth, and touched the ogre with his big bone-crushing stick. up.
The Salamander seemed to have sensed that the crisis was approaching. It opened its eyes vigilantly, and saw a feathered arrow coming towards it. At this time, it was too late to dodge, so it instinctively shrank back, and a simple dark red color appeared on its forehead. The magic circle, the moment the magic circle was activated, a light red hexagonal light shield appeared in front of the Salamander.
A feathered arrow was shot at it, and the light shield was only dimmed for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, there was another crisp sound of 'ding', and the light shield became dim again.
After flashing four times in succession, the red light shield shattered a hexagonal hole in the middle, and two arrows penetrated through the shattered gap of the light shield, nailing deeply into the Salamander's forehead. , the red crystal on the Salamander's forehead was also shattered by the two arrows.
The huge salamander let out a muffled roar behind the cluster of red crystals. As soon as it rushed out, it saw an ogre swinging a bone-crushing stick and hitting it on top of its head, and the salamander shook immediately. The giant tail allowed the body to flexibly change its direction on the ground. The ogre hit the volcanic rock with a stick, and immediately the gravel splashed everywhere, and a basketball-sized pit appeared on the ground.
The salamander's giant tail swung over immediately, the ogre took a deep breath, twisted his body and swung the bone-crushing stick round, and fought hard with the salamander's giant tail.
A huge force shook, and the clusters of red crystals around the salamander shattered. The ogre took three big steps back with the bone-crushing stick, almost knocking down the stone pillar behind him. It was covered with dense red scales, and when it was smashed down by the ogre's stick, the whole piece burst open, and a trace of butter-like liquid came out.
The salamander had three pairs of short legs, and suffered a lot in front of the ogre, and immediately rushed towards the ogre fiercely. Gulitum hurriedly avoided the side, and the hard head of the salamander hit the ogre. On the stone pillar, the stone pillar was smashed into several pieces immediately.
After making a bold blow just now, the ogre found that he was slightly weaker than the salamander, so he didn't fight it head-on, and only jumped out from its left side after avoiding the full force of the salamander. , the bone-crushing stick hit the salamander's giant tail and hind crotch again, and the agitated thin scales made the salamander extremely painful. It flicked its tail violently, swept the ogre more than ten meters away, and hit the ogre hard. On the stone wall.
There was a dull, loud noise throughout the cavern.
Then the salamander chased after the ogre a few steps, a few runes seemed to light up on its neck, the whole head instantly became red, hot air came out from the nostrils and mouth, as the salamander opened its mouth suddenly, A violent magma erupted from the mouth, and the place where the hot magma passed was full of steaming black smoke.
The ogre Gullitum did not expect that this salamander was more powerful than all the salamanders he had encountered before. With just a simple tail sweep, he hit himself against the rock wall, and his bones seemed to be scattered. same frame.
He tried his best to roll over to one side.
At this moment, Suldak held up a brand new dwarf chain shield in front of the ogre, but a mass of hot lava was blocked by the shield in Suldak's hand.
The ogre heaved a sigh of relief from behind. Although he was in unbearable pain, he still struggled to sit up, holding the bone-crushing club in both hands, and cooperated with Suldak to double-team the two from both sides. Salamander.
The Salamander saw that Suldak blocked the flames with his shield, and immediately turned around and ran towards the depths of the lava mine.
Samira, who was standing on a high ledge, shot several arrows at the salamander's back, but the salamander was huge and the skin on its back was thick, so these arrows did not cause fatal damage to it. , it turned around suddenly, the lizard tail twitched on the cluster of red crystals on the rock wall, the cluster of red crystals exploded violently, and the fragments of spar instantly forced back Suldak who was chasing up.
Gulitum wanted to grab the salamander's giant tail with both hands, but this salamander was much larger than the previous salamanders. With a random flick of the giant tail, the ogre was pushed back.
This salamander is like a huge armored vehicle, rushing towards the depths of the cave.
Andrew, who was blocked on the other side of the cave, ignited flames in his hands and held a butcher's ax in his hand. He jumped high towards the salamander and chopped towards the top of its head.
The salamander looked at Andrew angrily, opened its mouth, and a fan-shaped flame spewed out from its mouth. Relying on his own sensitivity, Andrew hid behind a stone pillar, avoiding the flames of the salamander.
Salamander seemed to know that Andrew was very difficult to deal with, and he didn't intend to rush over him. He twisted his body abruptly, and burrowed deep into the cave, sticking to the rock wall of the cave.
A few more arrows landed on the salamander, and the red crystal fragments on the skin of the giant salamander suddenly flew around.
The Salamander roared towards Samira, and Andrew intended to intercept the Salamander from the side, but was swept by the Salamander's huge tail, Andrew swung the butcher axe, and directly cut off a piece of the Salamander's back tail.
Suldak and the ogre chased up from behind, and the salamander actually slid towards a rock crevice less than one meter wide on the cave wall.
Unexpectedly, the body of the salamander can become very flat, and the huge body can get into the cracks of the rock without any hindrance. Andrew only took half a step, and picked up the ax to chop off a section of the giant salamander's tail.
Suldak and Gulitum chased after them. They didn't care how wide the crack was, and followed the salamander's escape direction into the crack.
The sides of this crevice rock wall were full of sulfur debris, and Suldak chased after him, while the salamander crawled very fast.
After Suldak got out from the other side of the rock crevice, he realized that he had actually entered another open lava cave. The giant salamander slipped away faster, before Suldak and his party got out. , plunged into the magma pool next to the cave.
When Suldak chased him closer, there were only circles of slowly rippling ripples left in this magma pool.
Gulitum slapped his forehead with a pair of big hands remorsefully, and the ogre yelled unwillingly:
"Damn it, let it escape..."
The space here is very large, the dome of the cave is at least 20 meters above the ground, and the surrounding stone walls look extremely smooth.
"Captain, this place seems to be different from the previous lava cave." Samira said from behind.Standing next to a stone wall, she noticed something different in the dark cave with her keen eyesight.
The magma pool not far away emits a red light source, but those lights are not enough to illuminate the entire cave after losing the refraction of the red crystal forehead.
