Chapter 21

Lu Xi and Clyde looked at each other, although her complexion was pale and bloodless, but her eyes were clear, without the slightest bit of drowsiness.

Counting down, Lu Xi traveled to another world, and there are only two things that can be relied on in her body. One is the unknown but not cheap pearls and gems on her body, and the other is the refreshment of her body at four o'clock every morning.

The latter guarantees that Lu Xi will not easily die in another world, while the former provides the basis for Lu Xi to live in another world.

As for the so-called aristocratic status, the golden fingers of the farm far away in the sky are all illusory things to Lu Xi at present, and they can't bring her any use.

Even though she really has a noble status, but there are so many countries in this world, who knows which kingdom she is a nobleman.

That is to say, the farm cheat, before Lu Xi completed the novice task and fully activated the cheat, it was just a mirage that could not be touched.

Lu Xi was really moved by the red young dragon and wanted to help it, but at the same time, she was also thinking about whether she could gain any benefits for herself by helping the red young dragon.

Originally, Lu Xi's plan was very clear. She would stay in Kuva Village for another five days. After the patrol team from Viguri Town arrived, she would go to Viguri Town with the patrol team, and then look for opportunities in Viguri Town before finding a way to go to the farm.

This idea does not seem to be a good idea, and it will not be less troublesome. After all, Lu Xi's "nobility" status will definitely be notified to the high-level person in charge of Viguri Town, and Lu Xi does not know anything about his family, so it will easily expose problems.

She couldn't tell where her family was located in which country, nor could she tell who was in the family and what they did. Village Chief Lu Li didn't ask Lu Xi tentatively, just because he didn't know much about nobles. How much could a trainee knight know without even seeing the faces of nobles several times with his own eyes.

And even if Lu Xi can cover up all of this, she still needs to find a way to get a map, find out where her Goldfinger's farm is, and then find someone who can escort her to the farm. In comparison, this is actually the most important point.

After all, this different world is full of monsters. They are not like wild animals on the earth. Monsters really know elemental magic.

Luckily, Lu Xi only met one low-level lion monster in the previous month, and Xiao Yuan followed her to watch the night and explore the way to find a safe place to live. But even so, she still encountered many dangers to her life.

There is no need for any powerful monsters, but the difficult terrain is enough to make Lu Xi suffer a lot. If it is not for the ability to refresh the body, a wound infection or eating the wrong food is enough to kill Lu Xi.

Lu Xi herself is just an ordinary human being with no abilities. In such a dangerous world, if she doesn't find other people's guards to escort her to the farm, how long can she survive on the road by herself.

Originally, Lu Xi and the members of the Dragon Hunting Mercenary Group should not interfere with each other. After all, they are not fellow travelers. Lu Xi has the label of nobleman on his body, and the mercenaries know that they are people who cannot go with noblemen.

Lu Xi was also worried that he would expose something in front of this group of mercenaries, they were not the kind of ignorant ordinary civilians.

So all along, Lu Xi has been avoiding in-depth contact, and only learned some information on the sidelines to add her own world view, but the world often develops unfavorably, so now she is sitting opposite this group of mercenaries and talking.

Logically speaking, Lu Xi was seriously injured, so she should go to rest first, and discuss those things after her injury recovers and her condition stabilizes.

But all kinds of things happened too hastily, and did not give her time and opportunity to rest assured.

First of all, Xiao Yuan stole the egg, now the result is clear, but at that time, Lu Xi was facing a group of mercenaries who regarded Xiao Yuan as a thief, if she left to rest and recuperate, those people would execute Xiao Yuan arbitrarily while she was away, and she would have nothing to say.

Lu Xi didn't know this group of people, so how could he know what they would do, so he could only plan for the worst outcome, not to mention that low-level monsters themselves were a threat, and no one would protect Xiao Yuan except Lu Xi.

Could it be that she, a lady who is defenseless and has no other force to rely on, can still fight this group of powerful mercenaries?
So Lu Xi gritted his teeth and did not leave the venue until it was confirmed that the matter of Xiao Yuan was over.

Then, the young dragon hatched and caused a commotion—Lu Xi wanted to leave and leave the young dragon alone, but the young dragon would not let Lu Xi leave, it was very clingy.

Lu Xi can only find another place to settle the young dragon's matter.

At this time, she didn't care about her wound anymore. Anyway, the bleeding had stopped, and she couldn't faint for a while, so she might as well finish everything in one go.

Clyde looked at Lu Xi earnestly. He didn't like nobles. It was easy to see that he still ignored Lu Xi. He didn't take the initiative to inquire about Lu Xi's affairs. As long as he was not in front of him, what he did had nothing to do with him. He didn't mind what Lu Xi did or wanted to do.

Some mercenaries are willing to please the nobles, even if they cannot become noble knights, they still hope to serve the nobles, even if their own strength is strong enough that they don't need to respect those so-called nobles.

Firstly, the remuneration given by the nobles is generous enough. Just giving a sum of money is more profitable than killing dozens of monsters in the wild. Secondly, working for the nobles will bring you much less danger and a more stable life. Who wouldn’t want to live a relaxed life?

It just needs to pay a little bit of conscience, and occasionally do some shameful things.

There are also some mercenaries who hate the nobles very much. Most of them have tragic experiences related to the nobles, so that they can't survive and can only become mercenaries, but even so, they will not do anything to the nobles, except for those black mercenaries.

As long as a mercenary wants to live a normal life, he will not provoke nobles, unless his own strength is strong enough that the nobles dare not even fight him.

Perhaps in the story, a mercenary will always be a very chic and free character, but in reality, a mercenary is far from so beautiful, and it is just a profession chosen by a group of people for their livelihood.

Clyde doesn't like nobles, but it can't be said that he doesn't hate them. He will also accept the rewards offered by the nobles, but only if the rewards are large enough, just like the reward on the dragon egg this time.

The reason why they said that after the dragon egg hatched, their mission failed was because Clyde knew about the noble who had placed a reward. The purpose of the reward was not to hatch a young dragon and raise a powerful magic pet.

But I don't know where I heard that eating dragon eggs can prolong life, become a "half-dragon man" with dragon blood, and get half of the dragon's life.

Dragons are not very long-lived creatures, at least not as good as elves, but dragons can still live for thousands of years, but humans can only live for less than a hundred years.

Clyde actually didn't want to accept this bounty, but the other party offered too much, and it wasn't something that hurt other people, and he was really short of money.

But now, the dragon egg has hatched into a young dragon, even if the young dragon is submitted to the other party as a reward, the other party will not admit it, and will not even give them much money.

After handing over the young dragon to the other party, the fate of the young dragon is also easy to guess. The other party even wants to eat the dragon's eggs, so how can they let the young dragon go? It won't take long for the young dragon to become a plate of food on the other party's table.

Clyde is not a madman, he kills monsters that hurt people. Although dragons are also a kind of monsters, ordinary monsters cannot be compared with dragons.

One is that dragons are intelligent monsters, which are different from those ignorant monsters who only know how to hurt people and eat meat. They can even learn human language, talk to humans, and possess wisdom even smarter than humans.

The second is that dragons basically do not take the initiative to hurt people. There is not much difference between human beings to dragons and ants to human beings. The attacks done by dragons are the first to anger dragons, and then they will be retaliated by dragons.

It is impossible for Clyde to attack such an intelligent cub. Even as a mercenary, Clyde has his own persistence. The dragon egg can be justified as a "dead thing", but how could he be able to deal with a living young dragon.

If Lu Xi, the noble lady, was not there, perhaps Clyde and the others were thinking about how to send the young dragon back without being discovered by the ice dragon.

Maybe selling the young dragon is also a way out, but the journey of transporting the young dragon will never be easy, the young dragon will not follow them obediently, and then wait for them to buy it.

But they met Lu Xi, and Miss Lucy was a good choice for them. She was kind and willing to protect a monster cub with her own life, and she had quite a lot of property—although nobles are not necessarily very rich, but she is a noble lady who owns her own farm, so how could she have no property.

As for how Clyde knew... Village Chief Lu Li returned home last night, shared the news with his wife, and was heard by Ayina, and then Clyde and the others naturally knew about it.

Even the news spread by the villagers is even more exaggerated.

Lu Xi herself may not even know how she was forged into the status of a "super rich woman".

Although Clyde was also concerned about Lu Xi's health, some things had to be done quickly. For example, at this moment, if he didn't take advantage of this opportunity when everyone was in a trance, and fooled the other party into paying for the young dragon, when would he have to wait.

They don't think there is anything wrong with defrauding nobles of their money. After all, nobles' money comes from exploiting common people. Even though Miss Lucy is so kind, does her money have anything to do with herself?

Of course Lu Xi understood what they were thinking, and it was really easy to see through, but she suddenly thought of something more, since the Dragon Hunting Mercenary Group even dared to steal dragon eggs, their own strength must be guaranteed, and the weak would not dare to take on this task.

Then escort her to the farm, there should be no better person.

The most important thing is that Lu Xi doesn't have to socialize with those powerful people in Viguri town, doesn't have to take pains to hide his identity, and doesn't have to waste time waiting for some patrols to arrive.

Isn't this a very suitable reason for contacting to redeem the baby dragon?It won't appear that Lu Xi is looking for them with ulterior motives, let alone make up any suitable excuses.

Isn't the ready-made excuse right here?

"Why?" Clyde and Lu Xi looked at each other.

"Could it be that you can bring the dragon into the city?" Lu Xi asked back, if the dragon can also appear in the human city aboveboard, there will not be so many bad legends about the dragon, only the great deeds of so-and-so and the dragon will be spread.

Clyde's eyes showed a guilty conscience for a moment, and White also turned his head away. The others looked everywhere, cough...their number of dragon hunting mercenaries is not bad, half of them will go to the city, and replenishment of supplies can still be done.

Seeing their reaction, Lu Xi sneered, "If Long is so easy to shoot, you don't have to come looking for me."

Then Lu Xi readily admitted, "I really can't bear it a bit, and I'm willing to pay the money to buy it freedom, but now I can't even guarantee my own safety, and buying it will only add to my troubles, and I can't even enter the city easily."

Lu Xi looked at White again, "Xiaoyuan and I used to be in love with each other. I am willing to give up my life to protect each other, but it is only a one-sided relationship with it. Would I also choose to sacrifice myself because of it?"

White's face froze, then he quickly put on a smile and was about to speak.

Lu Xi didn't give him a chance to speak, and said very confidently, "The most important thing is, how can you be sure that I have so much money on me?"

Maybe the jewels that Lu Xi was carrying were worth a thousand gold coins, but she would definitely not admit it at this time.

"I've been living in the wild so far, and there are only a few precious jewels left on my body." Lu Xi sat on the chair, leaned back, and his eyes naturally had a feeling of contempt.

"If you want a thousand gold coins, you have to go home with me. I don't give the price of the thousand gold coins, but the price for escorting me home."

Of course, Lu Xi didn't know the price of an escort, but in short, [-] gold coins was definitely not much more. Even in modern times, I have never seen anyone who can directly spend [-] million for a bodyguard.

As for what to do if you can't pay it back at that time... Let's wait until the time to talk about it. If you write an IOU, you won't believe it. After she activates her golden finger, she still won't be able to make a fortune.

White's whole expression suddenly froze. He talked to Lu Xi as a noble lady, and he really forgot.

On the contrary, Clyde remained calm, thought briefly, then nodded, "Yes."

"I don't know where Miss Lucy's house is?"

"I do not know."

 I read a historical article recently and it was really well written.

  The whole article has a kind of semi-vernacular feeling, the kind of classical Chinese translation is the same, and the writing is very good.

  Then I suddenly found that I started to subconsciously imitate when I was writing dialogues (horrified) This is Western Fantasy!
  Wangtian, can't I read novels while writing?

  Also, I didn't finish writing before eight o'clock, so I overestimated myself.
