992: Chapter 244 Scorpion Dragon and the Ring_2 992: Chapter 244 Scorpion Dragon and the Ring_2 “What’s a three-headed hellhound?
I just didn’t have the ti to deal with it.
If I had enough alchemists, the first thing I’d do is dig up the carcass of the Komodo War Behemoth buried in Kalimdo.
That thing’s carcass, sealed in a coffin and restrained with an Ice Bead, is buried underground and won’t decay for ten thousand years.
One day I’ll definitely unearth it and make a war drum out of it for Helen, so she can enter the battlefield carrying her beloved forr pet!” Richard waved his fist fiercely and beckoned to Ruona with his little finger, “Nana, give the hellhound from your ring to the master.”
“I’ll use my Soul-igniting Chain,” Xiao Cui offered understandingly.
“I’ll use mine,” Master Otigha stood up and kept insisting.
Once these two stepped forward, the elf mage Tang Ning had no choice but to stand up and show willingness, even though he was really reluctant to part with such good equipnt—his lips turned purple with distress, and he couldn’t utter that generous phrase—if he knew the extent of the boss’s generosity and the standards for assessing his subordinates, he would definitely be eager to offer it as well.
Looking at the Super Soul Burning Chain around her neck, inlaid with the Evil-eye Tyrant’s magic crystal, Helen thought it over and decided to forget it.
“Everybody stop arguing, I’ll use mine,” a figure said decisively, removing their own Soul-igniting Chain from around their neck and throwing it to Master Puskas: “Once I transform into crane form, I have to take this thing off anyway to avoid breaking it, which is almost a constant annoyance.”
“Lucky I asked you for a Space Ring last ti, or I’d have nowhere to put it.
The little creature indeed has many good things,” Master Puskas greedily caressed the Soul-igniting Chain in his hands, speaking contentedly.
“Master, greed is the greatest sin,” Richard sniffed and said with a hint of sarcasm, “I just gave you a Seven-degree Golden Spatial Ring, is it worth it?
Damn, I have thirty-seven space rings!
In Kalimdo, almost everyone has one to spare!”
“Hehe…
your generosity could illuminate a dwindling night,” Master Puskas’s eyes rolled around slyly, no one knew what kind of sche he was concocting.
“Lord Richard, I apologize…
I should address you as Richard the Shaman…” The Dragon Knight Lampard scratched his head, embarrassed and hesitant to speak.
“Dragon Knight Lampard, you may call His Excellency Richard,” Richard replied rather bluntly and without reservation.
“Yes, His Excellency Richard, that is indeed the proper address…” Dragon Knight Lampard fumbled with his hands, as if making up his mind but finding it a bit difficult to speak.
“What’s the matter, dear?” Richard asked, dying of impatience; talking to these squeamish humans was more uncomfortable than constipation.
“It’s like this…
You have so many Space Rings, and our ‘Holy Knight Corps of the Golden Palm’ have always lacked a large spatial equipnt for logistical support.
The Seven-degree Gold Rings are rumored to co with seven layers of natural space, each capable of holding up to five hundred tons, so I was thinking…” No sooner had Dragon Knight Lampard spoken, another Dragon Knight, Gaxia, imdiately turned green with envy.
“Do you also want one?
No problem!” Richard asked with a beaming face, though inside he felt a chill; it’s a mistake to show off wealth, and after bragging too much, he had finally invited trouble.
With Old Liu’s temperant, even if he had to puff up his face to pretend to be a fat man, he couldn’t let his show fall apart.
Oh, my heart aches!
Liu grumbled inwardly, quite annoyed.
“No, no, no!” Dragon Knight Lampard waved his hand and hurriedly explained, “As a noble sword robe knight, I certainly cannot simply accept your gift without offering sothing in return.
However, I don’t have anything that matches the value of this seven-degree gold ring.
Well, let just show you…”
With three parts nervousness and seven parts anticipation, the Dragon Knight extended his right hand, revealing a triple-loop bronze wrist guard with simple and archaic patterns, obviously of ancient origin.
Entwined gems and magic symbols caused a faint mist to constantly swirl around the wrist guard.
Everyone knew the Dragon Knight was about to present his exchange goods, so they quickly made room, allowing the Dragon Knight space to operate.
Lampard courteously bowed in thanks to the surrounding Beamon who had stepped aside, then stretched out his left hand and gently twisted the triple loop on his wrist guard.
With a swish of his arm, a faint purple smoke spread throughout the inn.
As the smoke cleared, five giant magical beast corpses appeared out of nowhere, stacked like building blocks in the cleared space, resembling a mountain of flesh.
“Holy crap!” Liu was genuinely startled, having not expected Lampard to bring out a pile of magic beast corpses in exchange for his space ring.
Looking at the combination of large and small corpses, they seed to have so significance.
Despite scrutinizing them for a long ti, Liu couldn’t identify which type of magical beasts they were, as they were clearly a type he had never seen before.
The appearance of these five magical beasts resembled super giant scorpions.
The largest was about five ters long and weighed around three tons, while even the smallest was over two ters long and weighed at least seven to eight hundred pounds.
Each had a pair of flat, scissor-like giant pincers covered in serrations.
Their rears dragged huge bone tail hooks with hollow tips, housing triangular spines, a variegated blue color that hinted at deadly poison.
The strange magical beasts had semi-transparent shells that glowed purple upon reflection, like a massive phosphorescence emanating from a grave mound—eerily uncanny.
The magical beasts’ appearance was also bizarre.
They clearly had scorpion-like bodies, yet each had a large and threatening lion’s head on its neck.
Exposed fangs protruded from their lips, and atop their heads were a pair of sharp, crossed bone horns.
Under their bellies were eight thick, bone-like giant legs with claw tips as sharp as knives.
A pair of triangular, bone-scaled transparent wings angled backwards on their backs, truly the epito of ferocious malevolence.
A large crowd of idle onlookers gathered around the pile of magic beast corpses, engaging in lively discussions, with everyone acting as if they were experts on magical beasts, unable to contain their desire to show off, spitting saliva in their eagerness.
“These are the Akanathed Scorpion Dragons from an underground world family that I led a team to exterminate in the great Kalimdo Desert last ti.
By rights, the Akanathed should be considered quasi-superorder magical beasts.” Lampard was sowhat embarrassed, for the skulls of these scorpion dragons had all been cracked open, and the magic crystals inside were removed.
In terms of conventional value, most of the worth of these scorpion dragons had been drained: “I apologize, Lord Richard, as all the magic crystals from these scorpion dragons were allocated among the Holy Knights who participated in the battle.
As the leading Holy Knight, I only obtained a male Akanathed magic crystal.
So, I am terribly sorry, with five Akanathed, I can only provide one magic crystal in exchange for your seven-degree golden spatial ring, which I know to be extrely precious…”
As he spoke, Lampard took out a box from his chest, a beautiful box lined with a layer of velvet.
But even the softest, most beautiful velvet could not compare to the pyramid-shaped purple magic crystal in the center of the box.
Under enchanting light reflections, the magic crystal sparkled dazzlingly, emitting an alluring charm.
“Akanathed Scorpion Dragons, these creatures are also known as Scorpion-tailed Lions and are quite infamous in the underground desert,” Liu comnted while looking at the Akanathed corpses on the ground, smacking his lips, “Holy cow!
This male scorpion dragon even has three tail hooks at its rear!
This creature attacks by shooting poisoned needles; three tail hooks an a triple burst, right?
That’s incredible, truly incredible!
A three-tailed scorpion dragon, there’s a special term for that…
what was it called again?”
“A scorpion dragon with three tail hooks is referred to as an ‘Akanathed Overlord’ in the underground world,” whispered Ning Yu, providing Liu with the information, “The female scorpion dragon is clearly an ‘Akanathed Excavator’, with two tail hooks, and the three smaller scorpion dragons are ‘Crystal Akanatheds,’ still immature.”
“Is it worth the exchange?” Liu’s lips moved almost imperceptibly, quietly sending a mosquito-like voice into Ruona’s ear.
