lord and his dragon

Chapter 73 Withered

Although there were no longer people who came to please them in an endless stream, the things that those people sent before were enough for Negrim to settle.

For the excess compensation, select the part with better quality, put it away, and prepare to take it back to Gaydon, and give the poorer part as a favor to others, and the part that originally belonged to the Hugh Nuoding family was taken by Nigri Mu sent people back to Hugh Notting Manor.

The steward once asked Negrim if he needed to send someone to clean up and repair the manor. After all, there were too many abandoned places in the hands of the Krevis family, which was inconvenient to use, but Negrim refused without hesitation. Just tell him to put things back.

The butler complied.

Negrim checked his memory and crossed out the names in his mind one by one. When he was recording the gems sent by a certain family, the ink in the bottle suddenly ran out.

Negrim was a little confused with his work, and he didn't react for a moment. He blinked, picked up the ink bottle, and wanted to look into his eyes. Seeing that he almost made a black eye, Abel hurriedly He reached out his hand to cover the mouth of the bottle, and said, "Don't look, it's really gone."

Negrim suddenly came back to his senses and said, "Then bring me another bottle."

Abel went out, and after a while, he came back and said that there was no ink in the warehouse.

When they came, they didn't expect to need to sort out so many things, so they didn't bring much ink.

Negrim rubbed his forehead and said, "Tell someone to go out and buy a bottle."

Buying ink was originally an errand that an ordinary servant could do, but the ink that Negrim used to use was produced in the marginal forest, and it was sold at a high price in the capital. In addition, only four alien races from the marginal forest can run this leg.

Abel originally wanted to ask Fuma to do this job. After all, there was nothing particularly eye-catching except for his ears and face, but he did not expect that the always hardworking elf would turn him down with a bitter face.

The person who read the book with the dwarf said with a smile: "He won't go out, the lady has chased after the door."

It turned out that because Fuma was so handsome, the lady was unwilling to give up after breaking up, but kept chasing and entangled her, trying her best to entangle her. Fortunately, Earl Hugh Notting's reputation spread throughout the entire capital in the past two days. The young lady did not dare to visit Negrim, and this gave the elves a chance to breathe.

But if he dared to step out of the mansion, the lady would definitely not let him go.

Abel is very contemptuous of the elf's behavior, wishing to knock him unconscious and throw him out immediately, but buying ink for Negrim is the most important thing now, he can't leave Negrim for too long, so he has to focus on on three other people.

The centaur didn't even look at him, and said, "I won't go."

The orc was a little hesitant, but thinking of what bad things would be said by those ignorant humans after going out, he finally shook his head and said, "I don't want to go either."

The dwarf said nothing, his eyes fixed on the book, but he was actually in a daze.

The centaur patted him and said directly: "The lord told you to go out and buy ink."

The dwarf shook his head and came back to his senses: "What?"

Then when he looked up, he saw that Abel had handed over the money bag.

dwarf:"……???"

The dwarf was obviously also very reluctant. His legs were so short, and he would have to walk four or five steps a step away from a horse. Why did he have to go shopping?But the money bag had already been handed over to him, so he could only get up muttering, and walked out.

Seeing his reluctance, Ren Ma smiled and said, "Be happy, you will meet someone who knows the goods today."

The dwarf was taken aback for a moment, and said in surprise, "Really?!"

The centaurs nodded.

This time there was no reluctance in the dwarf's heart, and he went out happily, and ran to buy ink at the address Abel had given him.

Gaydon's reputation has spread almost throughout the entire continent. A store that sells Gaydon's specialties is considered quite a high-end store. The address given by Abel is also in a neighborhood where nobles and rich people often go.

Everyone here is dressed in luxurious clothes. Apart from the nobles, there are also many merchants, swordsmen and magicians. Back to Gaydon.

If he was dubious when he said that he went out, then he now thinks that what the horse said is true. If he said that he would meet someone who knows the goods in the capital, the probability here is definitely the greatest.

The dwarf walked towards the store with his chest upright, seemingly not looking aside, noble and glamorous, but in fact he was secretly looking at the people around him, wanting to know where the person the horse said was.

In fact, there are quite a few people here who can recognize dwarves and know their abilities. If Iron Hammer came here a few days ago, there must have been many swordsmen and archers who came up to chat, but now Negrim's name has already disappeared. It spread throughout the entire capital, and everyone knew that the dwarves were brought by Earl Hugh Nordin, and most of the people here were related to the noble forces. Who wouldn't be afraid to offend the Earl?Therefore, those who knew the dwarves could only look helplessly at the stubby figure like a hammer and potato, but they didn't dare to really talk to him, for fear of being dealt with as an enemy by Earl Hugh Nuoding.

Although Tie Hammer sensed that others were watching him, but because of what happened on the first day, he didn't dare to be too sentimental. He went to the store to buy ink alone, and was ready to leave lonely.

Just when Iron Hammer was about to walk out of this street, and made up his mind to fight with the horses and horses when he went back, a tall man with strong limbs suddenly came up and asked hesitantly: "Excuse me ...are you a dwarf?"

When Iron Hammer heard this, he was taken aback for a moment, and then almost jumped up from the ground with joy.

It turns out that this guy who knows the goods is here!Why did it appear so late!

Iron Hammer apologized in his heart to the people who had been misunderstood, while suppressing his excitement, so that he would look as noble, glamorous and unattainable as a rare dwarf master.

Iron Hammer put his hands behind his back, hid the ink by the way, cleared his throat, and said slowly: "Yes, I am a dwarf, from the marginal forest, what's the matter?"

The middle-aged man did not expect that he would actually meet a wandering dwarf on the streets of Wangdu. He was stunned for a while, and then a surprised smile appeared on his face, and he said excitedly: "You are really a dwarf! Master?! God, do I have such good luck! I wonder if you have time, I have some questions that I would like to ask you!"

Iron Hammer liked the middle-aged man's reaction so much. At this moment, he still remembered that he was out to buy ink, so he happily left with him.

It turned out that this middle-aged man was a swordsman. Because of a major breakthrough, the old weapons were no longer useful. He was currently picking out new ones, but the weapons he chose were either too light or too heavy for him. Heavy, delicate enough not tough enough, tough enough but too clumsy.

If a swordsman doesn't have the weapon he wants, his combat effectiveness will be reduced, which is unbearable for any master.

This swordsman was originally working for a certain noble family. Apart from teaching the eldest son of the noble family, he usually practiced his own military strength. Will take to the streets by myself.

This also explained why the swordsman would tentatively talk to Iron Hammer, because he didn't know that Iron Hammer belonged to Earl Hugh Nuoding, or he didn't even know Hugh Nuoding at all.

The two chatted happily.

Iron Hammer is an expert in weapon forging, so he naturally knows which weapon is suitable for whom, but in his opinion, if you want to have a weapon that suits you best, you still can't just go to a store to buy a finished product, even if it's made by a dwarf. It has to be specially built according to a person's physical condition.

If it was in Gaydon, it would be impossible for anyone to ask the dwarves to build a weapon specially for him. Unless they could get the favor of the dragon lord, the dwarves would not talk to others at all.

But it’s different in the capital. Hammer has been lonely and neglected for too long. Finally, there is someone who sincerely worships him and asks him questions. Hammer doesn’t want to show his true nature I can't justify it now.

The swordsman probably didn't expect that he had just asked the master to give some advice, but in the end the other party decided to directly forge a weapon for himself!

The swordsman was shocked at first, then excited and thankful, and blew the hammer even more, without even asking for money.

If you were a guy with malicious intentions, you would definitely take advantage of this advantage. Maybe you have to trick the dwarves to get more benefits, but this swordsman is obsessed with martial arts, he is quite honest, and he also knows the works of the dwarf master It cannot be measured by money, so he solemnly said: "Thank you, Master Hammer, for your generosity, just treat it as my debt to you, no matter what request you have in the future, just ask me, and I will definitely throw everything away to serve you! "

Iron Hammer scoffed at these words in his heart, thinking, what can I do for you?We are such a big dwarf clan, if we can't do it, there will be such a powerful dragon lord!

But at least the dwarf knew that he couldn't say this in front of people. Anyway, his vanity had already been satisfied, and he didn't ask for any reward, so he hummed twice as he agreed.

The swordsman invited Tie Hammer to the noble family he worked for as a guest for dinner or something, and wanted to entertain Tie Hammer, but when he talked about this, Tie Hammer suddenly remembered, what to eat!He came out to buy ink for the lord!

The dwarf opened his mouth and looked at the dim sky. He came out at noon, and it's already afternoon!

"No!" The dwarf yelled and jumped up from the rock he was sitting on: "I'm here to work! I forgot to chat with you, I should be scolded!"

The swordsman was taken aback, and before he asked who would dare to scold a dwarf master, he saw the hammer running towards one direction with two short legs upside down.

Iron Hammer didn't worry the swordsman too much, and shouted at the top of his voice, "You still go to that street in five days! I will send someone to send the weapon there!"

After hearing this, the swordsman had no choice but to agree.

By the time Hammer returned to Negrim's mansion at his fastest speed, everyone had finished their dinner, so the dwarf ran to the kitchen alone to stuff something casually, and went to find Abel with ink.

He wasted a whole day and didn't dare to go directly to Negrim. Although he had never seen the dragon lord lose his temper, he had a hunch that it must be extremely terrifying.

But Iron Hammer didn't even see Abel in the end. He met Centaur Lucy on the way, and the other party told him that he knew that the dwarf would not come back in time, so not long after Iron Hammer left, Centaur sent Orc Essus away. I went out to buy ink, and the work of the Dragon Lord was not delayed.

Hammer: "..."

For a moment, Iron Hammer didn't know whether to thank the people or beat him up, knowing that the matter had been resolved, he didn't even tell him, and even made him worry for so long!But it was also thanks to the other party, otherwise he would have really delayed the lord's work, and it was also the people who informed him of the existence of the swordsman in advance.

The dwarf's face turned black and blue, and finally sat down on the ground in frustration, cursing: "You people are so annoying!"

Lucy walked away grinning.

Before going to bed at night, during the story sharing meeting that became a routine because of the elf Fuma, the dwarf also proudly told what happened to him today, but the elf seemed not interested.

As an elf who loves nature, he didn't like dwarves cutting down trees to forge weapons. What's more, his hobby was story books, so he was even less interested in such things.

But what is strange is that, apart from the orcs who are extremely supportive of any story, the centaur is also quite interested in the dwarf's story, and even asks: "What's the name of that swordsman? He said he would give you back the favor. You must remember his name, right?"

The dwarf didn't intend to ask for this favor, but when Centaur asked, he really remembered the swordsman's name.

"His name is... called... Meile?"

After hearing this, Lucy showed a mysterious smile on his face, and said, "The lord won't mind if you use the materials in the warehouse to forge weapons for this man, but he probably doesn't want everyone to come here because of this matter. So you must tell that Maire not to tell others that you forged the weapon specially for him, so as not to cause trouble to the lord."

Hammer actually wanted everyone to come to beg him, but what Lu Xi said made sense, this is the capital of the king, and there are bad people everywhere, so he couldn't cause trouble to the lord, so he nodded vigorously and said, "I know Alright, don't worry!"

-

There are too many people in the capital who are paying attention to Negrim, but the only one who is always concerned about his every move is Marus Pavoni.

Except for the guards and servants who were present that day, only Marus' father, the Duke of Pavoni, knew that his legs were broken by Hugh Nordin, and the Duke lost his temper after he returned home. In addition to being angry with Xiaoxiu Nuoding, he blamed his son for his recklessness.

The current situation in the capital is different from the past, and the person sitting in the palace is also being threatened like never before. Everyone's nerves are tense, why is little Pavoni so ignorant!How many of the nobles in the capital don't hate Xiaoxiu Nuoding?But now is not the time to attack him!

Thousands of exhortations and instructions failed to make Marus obey, let alone put down his business to avenge his son, Duke Pavoni was so angry that he wanted to break his hands again.

What happened in the Krevis family afterwards clearly showed that Hugh Nuoding was indeed a hard nut to crack, and it also strengthened Duke Pavoni's determination not to provoke him for the time being.

It's just that now, the Krevis family has become the after-dinner talk of the entire royal capital, and Duke Pavoni often hears from others that "Krevis doesn't have a brain, and he was the first to send him off before he figured out anything." Go up and get beaten," he could barely squeeze out a smile.

After all, the first person to be sent to the door was actually not Creeves at all, but the eldest son of their Pavoni family...

The attitude of the old duke was to settle the matter in the palace first, and then look for an opportunity to kill Xiu Nuoding directly, but Marus couldn't listen to his father's words, and he couldn't bear it for so long.

He was the one who followed Lux ​​Hunotdin back then, and he was also the one who was made things difficult all day long. How could the old duke understand his pain?

The broken legs were quickly healed, leaving no scars, but the words that Negrim said could never be forgotten.

Malus was afraid that Negrim would become the second Hugh Nordin to suppress him, and he was afraid of returning to the state of servility and no dignity in the past.

This mood lasted for a while, but as time passed, it gradually faded. Marus originally thought that he wanted to get rid of the psychological shadow that Negrim had brought to him when he met last time, but he didn't expect that I would start having nightmares all night long.

He dreamed that he had become a servant of Negrim Hunodin, and he dreamed that he was whipped and beaten, and stepped into the muddy water.

The dream that was repeated every night and became more and more real brought unspeakable fear to Malus. He knew that if Negrim could not be completely defeated and killed by him, he would never be able to get out of it in this life.

So no matter how much Duke Pavoni gave orders, Marus couldn't control his hostility towards Negrim at all. On the contrary, he also developed a bit of resentment towards his father because of this.

He doesn't understand anything, Marus thought, he just enjoys the benefits of my dignity and pain, he only thinks about himself, he doesn't understand anything at all!

"I'm going to kill Negrim Hunodin," Malus said, "Do you have any good ideas?"

The two servants who accompanied Marus fell on the ground and trembled. The two servants who were brought to the street by Marus last time were silenced because of the need to keep it secret. After lying in bed for half a year, they didn't want to end up like that.

One of them closed his eyes and tremblingly said: "Your Excellency, Your Excellency the Duke has ordered..."

Before he could finish his words, half of his neck was cut off by the sword of Marus, who was furious. The blood spurted out from the main artery, splashed all over Marus, and his companion screamed in fright, almost fainting. Fall over.

Marus didn't care about the smelly blood on his body, but pointed his sword at another person with a cold face, and said, "Is there anything you can do?"

How could this man dare to mention the Duke's order again, and quickly shouted: "Isn't it easy for you to kill someone! There are so many masters willing to serve you!"

A trace of anger flashed across Malus's face, and he roared: "A master?! How can there be any master! They can't beat the man under that cripple!"

After finishing speaking, he was about to swing his sword again, and the servant immediately screamed in fright: "Of course ordinary guards can't do it! But there is still your teacher!"

Marus's hand froze for a moment.

Although Marus didn't have any talent, he was physically strong since he was a child, so the old duke also hired a very powerful swordsman as a teacher for his son after he gained power. This swordsman was originally a first-level swordsman. But just a while ago, he suddenly broke through the bottleneck and became the only great swordsman in the Golden Feather Kingdom's records. In order not to be poached by other nobles, the old Pavoni concealed this news and has not revealed it yet. go out.

Marus' eyes lit up immediately after hearing this, he was a great swordsman, a master who could be counted with two hands on the entire continent!Others can't kill Xiaoxiu Nuoding, so can he do anything?

But here comes the problem again. His teacher is practicing swordsmanship all day long, and even working in his house has no goals for the time being, so he just finds a place to settle down. What kind of method should he use to hide the situation of the old duke? How about convincing his teacher to help him kill Negrim?

Malus couldn't figure it out, so he pointed his sword at the servant kneeling on the ground again.

The power brought by the desire to survive is still quite strong, and this servant actually thought of a non-solution method before Marus lost his patience and killed him.

After all, little Xiu Nuoding himself does not have any combat power. The real headache for Marus is the servants from the marginal forest around him. Marus can challenge Xiao Xiu Nuoding to a duel. The nobles use the servants The habit of fighting on his own behalf will make little Hugh Nordin send his most powerful servants, and Marus doesn't need to ask his teacher to kill people, just find a way to convince his teacher to take part in the duel instead of him, and encourage him to fight. It's enough to beat all the powerful servants of little Xiu Nuoding into serious injuries with a heavy hand.

Xiaoxiu Nuoding was able to run amok in the capital only because of the people he brought, otherwise, when they met for the first time, the guards brought by Marus would have killed him directly, and when his servants all After being dealt with, it would be a breeze for Marus to round and flatten Xiaoxiu Nuoding.

Marus felt that this plan was useful, so he immediately killed the servant and rushed to find his teacher.

As a great swordsman, his teacher received better treatment in the duke's mansion than Marus, the next duke. Marus had to notify him in advance when he visited him, but the strange thing was that he always stayed in the house. His teacher went out today, and Malus stayed until the afternoon before his teacher came back.

When his teacher came back, there was a happy smile on his face that was always moody and angry, which made Marus a little terrified, but then he saw the weapon in the teacher's hand again, and the weapon looked It wasn't Fanpin, he thought that his teacher was worrying about weapons these days, and it seemed that he had finally found a good one.

Since you are asking for someone, of course you have to do what you like, so Marus asked, "Where did the teacher find such a good weapon?"

Meile glanced at him, and couldn't help but want to show off, but recalled the dwarf master's advice to him, and finally swallowed the words back, saying: "Someone gave it to you, why? You have something to do with me?"
