A baby dragon has built a nest outside the Novice Village

Chapter 5: A New Adventurer Encounters a Dragon
Farui studied the man at the entrance of the cave from the shadows.

He looks like an adventurer, moving cautiously towards the depths of the cave.

The adventurer did not notice the existence of Fari. Under the influence of the spell "Concealing Breath", even if Fari was standing behind the adventurer, he would not be discovered by him.

"The sword is coated with holy oil, and the belt around the waist is filled with holy water. This is the equipment to prepare for dealing with the necromancer."

Fari moved slowly in the shadows.

The adventurers who were gradually going deeper into the cave began to feel something was wrong.

What he saw in the cave was not quite what he expected.

There were no magic circles, sacrifices, or undead creatures guarding the magic circles required for the necromancy ritual. Only a faint pressure could be felt in the cave.

"Something is wrong."

Although the adventurer could still sense a trace of residual undead energy in some corners, he already knew that the current owner of this cave was no longer a necromancer.

"Soul equipment!"

Fary's eyes moved away from the worn wooden shield and looked at the sword in the adventurer's hand.

"Was it solved by something else?"

The adventurer in front of him was a little stronger than the previous necromancer, but that was only a little. A warrior of this level could not possibly block the claw attack of a young dragon at such close range.

"Pain Pain Pain Pain!"

Fari moved, and the next moment, he appeared behind the adventurer, waving his claws.

The adventurer made his decision and continued to move deeper into the cave, completely unaware that in the shadows behind him, a young dragon was looking at him greedily.

The adventurers are already retreating, not knowing what they will encounter ahead and having no way to make targeted preparations in advance.

Fari is assessing the adventurers' worth.

"Broken shield, not worth much."

The aura is not strong, but it is completely different from the aura of ordinary magic weapons.

"Holy oil and holy water are worth about one gold coin. The leather armor is enchanted, so it should be worth ten gold coins..."

when!
However, a long sword blocked Fari's claws.

The sword looked like just a slightly better steel longsword, but in Farui's eyes, the sword exuded an unusual aura.

The adventurer and Farui were both stunned where they were. The wailing sound did not come from their mouths.

"It hurts!"

"The guy who killed those undead creatures doesn't seem to be here, so let's collect some clues now and go back."

A wailing sound echoed in the cave.

The weapon seemed alive.

This kind of equipment is extremely special. It is alive and has its own soul. It will become stronger over time. Just this sword can buy a city. It is priceless in the physical sense.

Fari's eyes burned.

The source of the wailing sound was the sword in the adventurer's hand.

Farry felt funny and a little embarrassed. At that moment, he felt as if he was standing on a stage, playing the villain clown in a play.

"Luckily there's no one else around."

In order to quickly end this awkward atmosphere, Fari opened his mouth and gushed out dragon breath, drowning the adventurers in front of him.

"Phew, done."

Flames and smoke obscured Farui's vision, but he didn't think the adventurer could survive.

Even the breath of a young dragon can kill most warriors below level five. Most warriors at this level are already famous and will not hold a broken wooden shield in their hands.

"That doesn't make sense. Why would a warrior with a broken wooden shield have soul equipment?"

After exhaling this breath, the power derived from the dragon blood in Fary's body weakened a little. As the instinct to grab the treasure gradually subsided, his reason regained the upper hand.

Along with reason, doubts also began to emerge. However, before Farui could think about it, a sword light split the flames and hit him.

Farri stepped back and watched the adventurer emerge from the flames.

"Are level 4 fighters so powerful now?"

Fari glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and saw that the scale hit by the sword had many cracks on it, but fortunately it still blocked the attack.

"It's so hot, someone come and help me put out the fire!"

The sword was still screaming, but neither the adventurer nor Farui had time to pay attention to it.

Fari was re-evaluating the strength of the adventurer in front of him. No matter how you looked at it, he was only a fourth-level fighter, but his hard power seemed to be no weaker than that of an average fifth-level fighter.

It was obvious that this adventurer had some secrets.

The adventurer was panting and staring at Fari's every move. The young dragon in front of him was two or three levels stronger than him. He had no room to make any mistakes. If he was careless, he would die.

At some point, the long sword also became silent, and the battle seemed to be about to break out.

The adventurer slowly moved his feet, moving around Fari, looking for flaws in him.

"We have to go around those scales and hit the weak spot. At least we have to prevent him from catching up for a while."

The adventurer could hear his own heart beating, and then he felt his limbs begin to stiffen.

"Oops, I forgot, Long Wei."

The giant dragon at the top of the food chain can exude dragon power even when it is young. Under the influence of the dragon's power, the bodies of those weak creatures will succumb to this terrifying majesty.

The adventurer's body was gradually succumbing to the dragon's might.

"We just have to fight!"

Even if a foolproof plan has not yet been found, adventurers can only choose to take a risk while they can still move.

"Stop, wait a minute!"

Just as the adventurer stepped forward and was about to swing the sword in his hand, Fari spoke.

The adventurer hesitated for a moment, but the sword in his hand did not hesitate.

"There is a flaw!"

With a strange cry, the long sword with soul slashed towards the gap between the scales.

"I told you to wait a minute..."

Fari dodged the attack by leaning sideways, and the adventurer came to his senses, took two steps back, and tightened his grip on the sword in his hand.

"Don't hold me back, I almost could..."

"Honestly, you were quite far behind just now."

Fari couldn't help it and broke the sword.

Longsword was still muttering something, but Fari ignored him and turned to look at the adventurer beside him.

"I have no grudge against you, there is no need to fight."

Fary took a step back, showing that he had no intention of fighting.

"Hey, it was obviously you who stole first..."

The adventurer thrust the sword into the ground with an expressionless face. The sound of the sword suddenly became muffled and indistinct.

The corner of Fary's eye drifted towards the long sword. Although it looked noisy, the sword had undoubtedly regarded the adventurer in front of it as its master.

This is what makes soul equipment special. Its soul will be bound to its owner. Once the soul equipment finds an owner it recognizes and completes the binding, no one else can use it.

This soul equipment is destined to be out of reach for Fari.

But maybe a lot of money can be squeezed out of that adventurer.
