Embarrassment of Golden Dragon Tails

The Silver Squirrel Hotel is located at the junction of Tuttan and Nilu, about [-] miles away from Random Forest. It has clean beds that don't match its appearance and the famous squirrel wine.

That night, the Silver Squirrel Hotel was as noisy as ever. In the lobby on the first floor, maids dragging trays shuttled between the crowded tables and bodies, serving delicious mixed flavor stewed meat and fragrant squirrels to every guest. liquor.

In the corner by the stairs, Vera and Tails were talking in low voices while tasting the stew.After questioning Vera about the treasure six times in Tails No. 30, Vera finally produced an incomplete map.According to the mayor of Don't Kill Me, this map shows the ruins of King Tut's Andrew the Great's palace.The venerable mayor swore to the mage that this map handed down from his ancestors was absolutely authentic and complete—except for the part that was eaten away by mice.According to the ancestral teachings, Emperor Andrew gave up that palace for unknown reasons. Tutan's most precious treasure was once held in that palace. It is said that until today, the palace is still completely preserved at the location marked on the map.

Ten days later, they came to Silver Squirrel Town, and if the map was accurate, the ruins were already close at hand.

The chef at the Silver Squirrel Hotel is very skilled, and the stewed meat is delicious. Tails unknowingly ate a large plate full of it. After licking the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, Tails raised his head and found Wei Wei on the opposite side. There was a familiar smile on the corner of La's mouth, and he looked in the direction of the window calmly.Tails followed his gaze and saw a dispute at the wooden table by the window.Four mercenary-looking people showed their blades, cursing and demanding that the people who were sitting there give up their seats to them.The man appeared to be male, wrapped in a tattered gray robe, his face hidden in the shadow of a hood, showing only a sharp chin and pale fingers.Facing the menacing mercenaries, he still sat there and sipped his wine slowly, almost without any reaction.

Seeing Tails' confusion, Vera withdrew her gaze and explained lazily in a low voice, "That's a priest."

"Priest?" Tails had heard of this kind of human beings, who gained power by serving the gods.But dragons have little interest in gods, and Tails' knowledge of priests is very limited.

"His back is straight, and he looks like he has been on top of people for a long time. His fingers are pale, as if he has not seen the sun all year round. And when he took the wine glass just now, he revealed an exquisite belt and a sacrificial dagger exclusive to the temple. Of course, these are not important, The important thing is that I know he is a priest."

"you know?"

Vera's black eyes became deeper under the dim light, "Yes, I know. Could it be that you can't feel his strength?"

Tails tried his best to feel it, but with little effect. "Damn human form!" he cursed under his breath through gritted teeth.Jinlong is very sensitive to spell-like power, and now... he is far inferior to Vera.

"Do it." Vera interrupted Tails' complaint.

"What?" Tails was a little taken aback.

Vera raised her chin to signal to the window. In front of the wooden table, the priest was still sitting calmly, while the mercenaries had already drawn their weapons.

As soon as the four fierce mercenaries drew their weapons, they each felt their eyes darkened and fell to the ground one after another.The swords rolled down with crackling, and two of them accurately pierced their owners.Tails went around the table, opened the window, picked up the four mercenaries one by one, and threw them out together with the weapons stuck in their legs.

The tavern fell silent, and almost all the guests watched what happened here dumbfounded.Tails clapped his hands, leaning against the window as if nothing had happened, staring at these stupid humans coldly.It had been a long time since he had been able to beat a human happily, but at this moment he was in a very happy mood.

Vera came to this table, raised his wine glass to the priest who was hiding his identity, and greeted briskly: "Hi, squirrel wine tastes good, doesn't it? My name is Vera, and he is Tais. If you don't If you mind, I have an interesting idea that I need to find a quiet place to talk to you about."

In a comfortable room on the second floor of the hotel, the priest wrapped in a gray robe stood at the door, staring coldly at the busy Vera and Tails standing by the window from under the hood.After casting a spell to remove the ears growing on the wall, Vera turned to the priest who had been waiting for a long time.

With a falsely gentle smile, he bowed to the priest, his manner so graceful that it looked like the graceful drooping neck of a swan.The priest didn't return the salute, and his tone was very cold, "A mage and his servant? Tell me, what are your plans?"

Even after hearing it many times, Tails still couldn't get used to this name.He proudly pointed out that he was only following the mage temporarily, and he was already prepared to bear Vera's ridicule in his heart.Surprisingly, Vera didn't add insult to injury, but nodded, agreeing with his words.

Vera sincerely invited the priest, and he showed the incomplete map, hoping that the priest could go there together.His rhetoric was very moving, but the priest just glanced indifferently and rejected Vera's invitation, as if neither the ruins nor the treasure could move his heart.He questioned suspiciously why Vera only invited him, and doubted the intention of the scene in the hall just now.

Vera smiled and said: "Because I know that you are a priest, just as you know that I am a mage. Honorable Lord Priest, I didn't ask why you are here alone, and you don't have to doubt my intentions. It's just that There may be unexpected dangers in the ruins of Emperor Andrew's palace, and I would feel safer if I had a priest with me." After finishing speaking, he quietly waited for the other party's response.

The priest pondered for a moment and said, "I hope this treasure has the value you said. I have a request. All the treasures must be selected by me first. Of course, I will not be greedy. I only want things that are useful to me. "

Tails is in a hurry, let him pick first?Tails doesn't believe in human promises, it works for him?snort!What if he says everything works for him?He was about to refuse the priest's request when he heard Vera's soft voice, "Okay."

It's over.Tails was heartbroken, Vera must have a problem with his head, and he was even more innocent than Bailong. Thinking of this, he secretly rolled his eyes at the naive Vera.

The agreement was reached, and the priest removed his hood, revealing his entire face.He looks about 30 years old, handsome and thin, with long silver-gray hair hanging down his cheeks, revealing suspicious blue eyes and a sharp chin, his eye sockets are deep, his face is pale and almost bloodless His lips were pursed habitually, looking extraordinarily serious.

"You can call me 'Hill'." He glanced at Vera and Tails coldly, and said indifferently, "Now, you can go out."

"This is my room!" Tails said through gritted teeth.

"It's mine now."

"Good night, my lord priest." Vera showed a fake smile, quietly made a threatening gesture, and forcibly dragged the aggrieved Tails back to her room.
