These days, wives deliver to their door by themselves

"Oh, I can't help it. It seems that it's time for me to take responsibility. Let me pull out the sword in the stone! But you should clean up the area around the sacrificial altar first, it's full of wreckage."

"..."

After the scene was cleaned up, Du Wei stepped onto the sacrificial altar, and then put on a righteous face and held the hilt of the sword.

"I am the chosen one, and the only one!"

Du Wei took a deep breath and pulled his hands violently!

"Uh-ahhhhhhhh!!!"

Iron Feet chuckled.

"Boss, can you do it?"

Du Wei gasped and roared.

"Shut up, fat pig, I'll pull it up and show you when I take a break."

"..."

After the break, Du Wei started the second round of fighting.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! Get up!"

5 minute later.

"I give up! What kind of broken sword is this? It's a waste of my time and feelings to come all the way!"

Tiehua smiled knowingly when she heard this.

"Don't take your anger out on a sword."

"Substitute, you will pull out the iron flower."

Tiehua froze for a moment.

"Uh, are you sure you want me to come? What if it breaks?"

"I'm going to dismantle this broken sword today!"

"That's what you said, don't blame me if it breaks."

After Tiehua finished speaking, she eagerly jumped onto the sacrificial altar.

Although Tiehua is the only girl in the group, her strength is the strongest among all of them. Even the thick man Tiehua lost to his sister in wrist strength competition. Du Wei guessed that this should be due to her giant bloodline. The rest of the group must have a stronger reason.

Tiehua held the hilt of the sword with both hands, she also took a deep breath, and then yelled loudly.

A crisp voice sounded.

Snapped.

The long sword was cut into two pieces directly from the break.

Du Wei was full of question marks? ? ?

Everyone "..."

Tiehua said with an innocent expression while holding the long sword that was only half left in her hand.

"Look, I said just now that it would be broken."

Du Wei made a decision after thinking for a few seconds.

"Okay, let's go, just pretend that this incident never happened, and report to father when we go back, that we only saw a sword that was broken in two."

“…”

Just when everyone was about to pack up and go home, someone in the team noticed something strange.

The stalker old dog in the regiment shouted.

"Wait, the cut of this sword is weird."

"where?"

The old dog took out the tweezers and carefully took out a ring from the broken part of the giant sword.

Du Wei leaned forward to look.

"Strange, why do I feel a little familiar."

The ring is black as a whole, with an unpretentious appearance, only the inner side of the ring has some unknown characters, but the longer you look at it, the more mysterious the ring becomes, and it feels like your mind will be sucked in.

He seems to have seen that text somewhere...

"Ah, I remember what this is!"

Iron Man asked.

"What is this?"

"Contract Ring!"

It seems that Iron Man and Tiehua don't know what the contract ring is.

Du Wei explained to them.

"Read more books on weekdays. I don't even know about the contract ring. This is a legendary item!"

Everyone exclaimed suddenly.

"legend!?"

The old dog was so frightened that he almost slipped his hands and dropped the ring to the ground.

Tiehua looked suspiciously.

"Is the boss playing tricks on us again, this little ring will be a legendary item?"

Du Wei rolled his eyes at Tie Hua.

"Why am I making fun of you country bumpkins?"

Tiehua gave him an even bigger look.

"Then you explain to me who threw that damn paprika in my kettle last time."

"Who is it? I guess it should be the punishment from the goblin, in order to punish you for reporting my rebellious behavior to my mother."

Du Wei whistled as if it had nothing to do with him.

Iron Man said anxiously.

"Don't worry about such trivial matters, tell us what this contract ring is."

"Oh, it's really nothing, it's just a prop that allows users to sell their lifespan and soul in exchange for special abilities. The incantation in it roughly means 'equivalence exchange'. I saw it in the taboo prop catalog in the academy. Samples can be seen here."

Iron Man swallowed.

"Forbidden item? This should be a priceless treasure."

Du Wei shook his head.

"It's said to be a sample. This thing has been destroyed long ago in the official history. Now we have a toy at best, and it doesn't make much sense."

Iron Man asked persistently.

"Even if it's a sample, you can exchange your lifespan for strength."

Du Wei shrugged.

"Did you see the corpses all over the ground? Do you dare to use it? It seems that this thing is probably put here by a caring person for fishing. After using it, it will be drained and turned into the nourishment of the ring. It is quite ritualistic. Hide it in the sword, and only pick someone who is destined to strike?"

Tie Hua and Tie Man exchanged glances.

"This is really..."

"Are you aware of the key point? This contract church has a big problem. No wonder the reputation of the contract goddess has become more and more bad in the past few years. It turns out that this group of people is bad."

asked the old dog.

"Then what about this ring, put it back?"

"Why do you stuff it back? Of course, bring it back to the mansion! Although this should be just a sample, let the appraisers in the city worry about it."

But even if it's genuine, he won't use it. Do you think he's lived too long?

"Bring it with tweezers."

Taking the old dog's tweezers, Du Wei carefully held the contract ring and threw it into the interspatial bag.

Iron Man was puzzled.

"Why are you so careful? Could it be effective if you touch it?"

"I don't know, but I don't even want to touch it. There are several cases recorded in the literature I read. It seems that the people who used the contract ring were all ruined without exception."

Iron Man scratched his hair and sighed.

"This contract goddess thing is really evil."

Du Wei doesn't know if it's evil or not, but this kind of pie-in-the-sky thing definitely has a ghost, and if you believe it, you will suffer a big loss.

After stuffing the ring into the interspatial bag, they turned around and walked back.

But when they were about to reach the entrance of the cave, there were metal collisions and shouts of unknown creatures.

Iron Man commanded immediately.

"There is something strange outside, Tiehua, you protect the boss and follow slowly. If you find something wrong, tear up the teleportation scroll and leave immediately. The others will go over with me to check with weapons."

Tiehua nodded.

"Understood, brother, be careful yourself."

After the iron man led the men away, Du Wei and the two slowly approached the entrance of the cave, and soon a disgusting stench came over their nostrils.

Although the guards did not want him to participate in unexpected battles, Du Wei still drew the ice sword hanging from his waist.

In the past few years, he has not only focused on farming. Although his strength has not improved much, as the heir of the Falvin family, he can't just run away at the beginning. If this news gets out, won't his face be wiped out.

But when he and Tiehua came to the entrance of the cave, the battle outside was over, and there were many monster corpses lying on the ground, and Iron Man was leading the people to make up the last sword for those monsters that hadn't died yet.

"Who will tell me what is going on here? Where did these ogres come from?"

The corpse lying on the ground is a kind of humanoid monster called ogre. These ugly giants are as infamous as their name, and they are frequent visitors who often appear in guild crusade missions.

A black-feathered knight assigned to stand guard at the entrance of the cave answered.

"I don't know. Half an hour ago, this group of ogres suddenly emerged from the jungle and attacked us."

Could it be that the ogre also came for the contract ring?

In fact, this is not surprising. Humans will go on adventures for treasures, and so will monsters. Besides, ogres also have awakened wisdom, but their brains are not as bright as humans.

Iron Man said what he had guessed in his mind.

"These ogres may have come for the contract ring. Just now I saw a guy with two heads in the ogres team, but it saw us rushing out and fled with the remaining ogres. gone."

The double-headed ogre is a special existence among the ogres. Not only is it more powerful than ordinary ogres, but it even has the talent for spells. This kind of double-headed ogre is generally found in the ogre tribe. leader or shaman.

But Du Wei didn't understand why they came to snatch the contract ring?This is not a natural treasure that can evolve by swallowing it.

Du Wei thought for a long time and still couldn't think of a reason.

"Forget it, don't worry about this, is anyone in the team injured?"

Iron Man laughed.

"A few ogres can't do anything to us."

Being able to serve as the guard of Farwin's heir, the skills are naturally not bad. First of all, the strength of the black-feathered knights cultivated by the family is of course not to mention. Even the guys who came with the Iron Man Squad this time are all the most experienced veterans. .

However, there were still a few unlucky guys who were shot by the double-headed ogre hiding in the dark several times. Fortunately, the wounds were not deep. Du Wei took out a bottle of diluted healing potion and asked them to apply it. There's nothing serious about it.

After returning to Dayan Village, they immediately set off to return home. Since they knew that the monster might be targeting the contract ring, it would be safer to go back earlier.

After returning to the mansion and reporting the result of the trip to Howard, he forgot about the contract ring.

Du Wei will not conduct an in-depth investigation because of this incident. If he plunges into it headlong, he may be in greater trouble waiting for him later.

...

"Eat me back to the carbine!"

Du Wei didn't participate in the battle this time, and felt a little inflexible, so he worked hard to practice spear skills in the courtyard.
