Chapter 85: The Arcane Priory (IV) There were many novel items at the auction. Although their functions were not very powerful, their uses were very strange, which opened Cassius's soon he wanted to earn some extra money on his own. So under Cassius's order, the "Iron Golem" took out scales from the dimensional bag. "what is this?" "It seems that there is some residual lightning element on it, and the reaction is very violent." “Is this a dragon scale?” Everyone looked at it carefully, but no one could figure out its origin, and Cassius just smiled and said nothing. "It's the scales of the Green-footed Dragon Snake." Ms. Star said with a firm tone. "The armor made of the scales of this monster has the effect of protecting against lightning, and these scales still have elemental residues. They should be no more than ten years old. In the hands of some masters, they can even be made into magical instruments that can release chain lightning, lightning beams and other energy-shaping spells." Cassius then said: "I sincerely admire your profound knowledge."
Ms. Fanxing smiled slightly, seeming quite pleased with herself. "But... please wait a moment." He saw that the "Iron Golem" had several dimensional bags tied around its waist. He poured them out one by one, and they were all filled with scales of the Green-footed Dragon Snake. "so much?" "My god, how many armors can be made from this." "This should be the killing of a green-footed dragon snake, or even more than one." As everyone was discussing, Cassius said a number: "These are two thousand gold coins in total." Everyone was silent for a moment, no one could come up with so many gold coins at once. After hesitating for a moment, the Gray Eagle said: "Five hundred gold coins, I want a quarter of them." The Seeker of Knowledge also said, “Me too.” In this way, the scales that had been gathering dust for many years were sold for half the price of one thousand gold coins, but he actually did some tricks. Those scales have been piled up in the nest for many years, and he is very familiar with them, so he can use the dragon race's innate "object locating" spell ability to determine their location, with a range of several kilometers. Just as he entered, he discovered that a medal was faintly visible on the chest of the "Grey Eagle" robe, which was an eagle and a sword. "I hope you keep them safe in your storage room." "By the time--" "I'll come find you." Cassius looked at the buyer with kind eyes, but the buyer didn't care and just thought that he was very satisfied with the transaction results. The commodity trading session ended quickly. In addition to sharing magical knowledge, exchanging research results, and auctioning goods, the Arcane Hermitage sometimes takes the opportunity to seek help and eradicate evil, such as the Grey Eagle is currently issuing a call.
"Burning Embers Nest, you may not have heard of this name, but the scope of this evil force has expanded to the entire Storm Peaks, and has even endangered the surrounding countries. Ogres, dragons, chimeras, those evil and terrible monsters gathered in one place." "The Burning Nest?" "I seem to have heard some nearby adventurers say so." "The place of death?" "Their leader seems to be a red dragon." Gray Eagle gritted his teeth and said, "That's right! Their leader is a brutal red dragon, these shameful reptiles." "Dragon, these guys are born with extremely powerful strength, but they still try to take everything from us." "Their desires are endless. They greedily crave for more and attempt to occupy all the treasures in the world. People like us who are just should stand up—" Olivia frowned slightly when she heard this, but she didn't say much. Cassius interrupted at the right time and said, "Sir Grey Eagle, you are generalizing a little. Aren't there also golden dragons and silver dragons among the dragons who worship goodness? "These noble creatures are far more worthy of the word justice than ordinary creatures." "indeed so." Olivia nodded subconsciously. But she soon realized that her words and actions were inappropriate, and noticed the smiling look from Cassius. She looked at Cassius deeply and said nothing more. "The kindness of the dragon..." Cassius thought to himself that this was the contradiction of these metal dragons. On the one hand, they have extremely long lives and believe themselves to be far more noble than other creatures, just like most dragons, so they will never look at other creatures from an equal perspective. But at the same time, these metallic dragons are "kind", willing to help weak creatures and uphold their own justice, which makes this behavior closer to giving alms to pets. Grey Eagle was a little unhappy about being interrupted, but he continued, "Right now, the three Dukes, Rackman, Bossk, and Nott, are organizing a coalition to work together to eradicate the evil in this land and attack the Burning Embers Nest." "It's just that... the coalition is still lacking some spellcasters. If anyone here is willing to fight for the order and peace of Anzeta, you can contact me. The family can also give sufficient compensation to everyone who stands up. At least this price will definitely satisfy you." "But the so-called Burning Nest hasn't attacked you yet, has it?" "So why... did you take the initiative to provoke a war?" Olivia asked softly. Silver dragons dislike war, and they abhor injustice and cruelty. However, unlike gold dragons, they are not enemies of evil and vile behavior. Silver dragons are more concerned with protecting the innocent and healing their injuries than with punishing or eradicating evildoers. Seeing that it was the one with the highest status who spoke, Gray Eagle quickly said, "Ms. Stars, that is a red dragon. You can expect the worst from it." "Its sharp claws and flames can displace us at any time. It will abduct our wives and daughters and destroy our houses. The only thing we can do... is to strike first." "Crack, snap, snap!" Applause broke out in the empty hall.
——That was from Cassius. "Well said, Lord Grey Eagle. This red dragon has indeed endangered the peace and order of Anzeta. There is a saying in my hometown: With great power comes great responsibility." "As the darlings of the world, we spellcasters do have the responsibility to uphold justice and eradicate these cruel and evil people. I believe everyone here thinks the same way." "I, and the forces behind me, are willing to contribute to the coalition's conquest." Cassius's words were powerful and resounding. Seeing the strong support from the wealthy and mysterious Cassius, Grey Eagle was overjoyed and completely forgot his previous unhappiness. He stepped forward and complimented him: "Mr. Ember, I have great respect for you for being able to fight against a giant dragon for justice." Cassius waved his hand and said, "It's okay. We are all on the path of pursuing justice. This is what we should do." "exactly." There was applause all around. The two men smiled cordially and shook hands firmly, but each had his own ulterior motives and thought that the other was being taken advantage of, but Cassius had more information than them.
