"We have taken in a lot of people here, many like her. I can't save so many people. I can only rely on the knowledge I have learned to give them a sigh of relief." Hawke put it on the straw The pusher's hand tightened, and he sighed and put the straw pusher back into place.

"What will happen to people who drink the elixir?" Alice asked.

Hawke shook his head, nodded again, and replied: "The elixir is only a small part of the inducement. The most important thing is what Fulid did in Lactoma."

As he continued to walk forward, he continued to talk to the two people behind him: "Put your horses here first. By the way, did you see a well when you walked into the city? It's near the main square."

"Yes, what happened to that well?" Ivan Bell replied. They had indeed seen that well when they first arrived in Lactoma, but the well was full of smelly sewage.

Hawke paused. He reorganized the language and told the two of them in the most concise and clear words what Folley had done to the well.

"Someone once poisoned the well in the city. That well was a public water point for the whole city. Therefore, most of the residents in the town became vomiting and diarrhea after drinking the poisonous well water, and some of their health was... The weak may even lose their lives because of it.”

"At this time, Fulid appeared. He claimed that he could help those who were poisoned to recover, and all he needed was a small bag of gold coins. Many people believed him. I am ashamed to say that I also paid him He used the money to get the so-called magic medicine."

As he said this, Hawke twisted the back of his head with a wry smile.

"But from that day on, I discovered that the so-called elixir was clearly another kind of poison. Once you drink it once, you will want to drink it a second time. And when you don't have enough money to buy it, it It will torture you like a demon, and in the end, you can only die miserably on the street."

Hawke turned around, bowed to Alice and Ivan Bell, and shouted to them with all his strength: "Please help me, help me uncover the conspiracy of that despicable villain!"

Chapter 141 Hawke’s request

"Please, please help me!"

Hawke turned around, bent his back towards Alice and Ivan Bell, and begged loudly.Many people in the barn also heard his voice and were looking at them curiously.

"If I remember correctly, you didn't seem to trust us at all at first, right? Why do you want us to help you now?" Ivan Bell looked at Hawke with sharp eyes.

Hawke sobbed twice, tilted his head and whispered: "I trust other people easily. I once stopped other people from drinking the elixir, but..."

"The result?" Ivan Bell continued to ask.

"He told Fulid about my whereabouts, and then Fulid sent people to chase me." At this point, Hawke shook with lingering fear, and his hand couldn't help but touch his old trousers. Injured arm.

Now Alice and the others understood a little bit about why Hawke was so vigilant.After Alice and Evan Bell carefully weighed the pros and cons, they tentatively agreed to Hawke's request.

"What do you need us to do?" Alice was already gearing up to do something.

Hawke frowned. He still lacked the last medicinal ingredient. If he could get that medicinal ingredient, he might be able to make an antidote.

If it can be done, then the patients who are lingering in these dwellings and barns will still have hope of survival.

It's just that the place where that medicinal material grows is too dangerous...

Hawke himself does not have the ability to find it on his own, but is this the reason to put the two people in front of him into danger?

"In that case, what's the difference between me and Fulid? But I can't..." Although Hawke can't tell it from his daily behavior, he is indeed a person who often gets into trouble.

Seeing that Hawke didn't speak for a while, Alice and Ivan Bell were puzzled.They all tend to be the "outspoken" type of people, so they don't understand why Hawke is so mother-in-law. If he clearly wants to ask someone else for something, then just say no?

"Just tell me what you need. Don't look at me like this, but I'm a very powerful magician!" Alice said confidently, patting her chest.

"But what I need is in the monster's lair. Even so, are you willing to go?" Hawke still hesitated.

As soon as I heard about monsters, Ivan Bell, who was extremely interested in fighting, was instantly interested. She asked: "What kind of monster is it?"

Although the emphasis was a bit wrong, Hawke still described the monster to Ivan Bell honestly.The herb he was looking for grew in the lair of a monster called "Pseudo-Dragon". Although the name contained the word "dragon", the pseudo-dragon looked more like a large lizard.

However, its name as a pseudo-dragon is not for nothing. It can spit out the breath of fire just like a real dragon. As long as its thick tail hits a person, it can directly break the person's bones.

This is also the reason why Hawke cannot collect medicinal herbs. He is just a weak pharmacist, not a brave adventurer.

"That's it, okay, let's go now." Ivan Bell said this. She seemed calm, but she was actually very excited inside.

No adventurer (or anything similar to an adventurer) fantasizes about fighting a legendary dragon from time to time.But where can there be dragons for you to hunt in Nirnati now?

So when he heard about the existence of monsters like pseudo-dragons, Ivan Bell felt it was time to use his own advantages.

She is a warrior, and in some ways an extremely good warrior.So when the extremely cherished enemy appeared in front of him, the warm blood belonging to the warrior in Ivan Bell's body started to burn.

Of course, this may also include the fact that she is a fighting maniac, and she happens to be tired of her daily routine of hunting down the fallen.

"Really!? Thank you so much! If you want to go, you must use the potion I made, ah! It is for detoxification. The pseudo-dragons moving there are poisonous, so please be careful... ..." Hawke fell into a state of extreme excitement after seeing his request accepted by Ivan Bell.

He ran around the barn like an impatient parrot, and from time to time he brought back a bunch of things and stuffed them into the arms of Alice and Ivan Bell.

Alice couldn't help but put the useful things into her pocket, and she planned to return the remaining cumbersome things quietly before leaving.

"No, really no need. I know how to dispel. If it's poisonous, I can just use magic myself. Just keep these potions for yourself." Seeing Hawke come back with another bottle of potions, Alice hurriedly came out Prevent.

She thought that instead of giving these potions to them, they should be given to those in need in the barn.But what she didn't know was that these antidotes were of no use to the patients, and they were just taking up space.

Hawke and his pile of potions were just a brief interlude before Alice and the others left. Since they agreed to the commission, they were naturally ready to leave.

Before leaving the barn, Hawke hurriedly drew a sample of the herbs he needed, and handed Alice a map with the collection points.

"Glow-in-the-dark flowers usually grow where there is water. When you get there, pay more attention to small puddles and the like, and you should be able to find them soon." Hawke instructed.

Alice nodded, then tightened the reins and drove Nana under her to start galloping.

If you want to go to the false dragon's lair, you have to go out from the west gate of Lactoma and travel a few hundred kilometers outside the city in the direction of Bei, and you will see the lair next to the river.

The pseudo-dragon's lair was unusually conspicuous in appearance, with a large scorch mark extending all the way from the entrance of the cave. Alice and Ivan Bell knew immediately that their destination had arrived as soon as they arrived nearby.

Climbing off the horse, he moved lightly towards the lair. The smell that hit his nostrils was the stench of wild beasts.Alice's nose had been severely damaged today, but after being baptized by corpse odor, she had become tolerant of the sudden odor.

Can you say this is also a kind of progress?

"Shh, it's inside, it seems to be sleeping." Ivan Bell relied on the excellent night vision ability brought by his vampire blood to clearly see the pseudo-dragon sleeping soundly in the lair.

The pseudo-dragon's abdomen was undulating, and it was now as if it were in a dream, its tail was constantly sweeping around, and it was also smacking its mouth in a humane manner.

"Should we lure it out, or fight it inside?" Alice gestured silently.

"Of course - bring it out -" Ivan Bell spoke boldly, but her voice was softer when she spoke, and she also had a long drawl, so it sounded very funny.

Ivan Bell's proposal was passed quickly, and it was obvious that she and Alice wanted to go together.If they fight the pseudo-dragon in the lair, they will indeed have some advantages.

However, they could not guarantee whether the pseudo-dragon would burn the luminous flowers in the lair to ashes with a breath of fire during the battle.

With this premise, "leading the dragon out of the cave" is a better choice.

Chapter 142 Pseudo-Dragon Stewed in Stone Pot

After finalizing the plan, the next step is to consider how to implement it.

Ivan Bell stood a certain distance away from the entrance of the nest with a sickle in her hand, her right hand tightly wrapped around the chain.Later, she will throw the scythe into the lair with all her strength to attract the attention of the pseudo-dragon.

As for Alice, she was placed aside and was currently chanting magic with Starlight, who was freed from the staff.

She wanted to use magic to seal the pseudo-dragon in the magic circle immediately after it left the nest due to the attack.However, Alice's grades in magic circle learning were very poor, so she had to ask Starlight to help her cast spells.

On one side, Alice was chanting spells quickly, and on the other side, Ivan Bell was not idle either.

She held up the scythe and gestured at the angle. She tried to hit the pseudo-dragon in the lair with one stroke. In the best case, she even had a chance to get the scythe directly stuck in the scales of the pseudo-dragon.

When Alice gave Ivan Bell a thumbs up to indicate that her chant was about to end, Ivan Bell immediately cheered up and threw the sickle with all his strength.

The black scythe and the chain drew a straight line in the air. In just a blink of an eye, the scythe had already flown into the nest.After the loud collision of metal, the roars of monsters and the sound of flames spraying out came one after another.

Alice was almost shocked by the roar of the pseudo-dragon and interrupted her singing. Just when she had just stabilized her body and was about to continue chanting the spell, a red shadow rushed out of the lair.

"I'm bulging!" Ivan Bell was forced to swear.

Her scythe was indeed accurately stuck in the scales of the pseudo-dragon, but because she misjudged the strength of the pseudo-dragon in its rage, she was now being tossed up and down in the air by the pseudo-dragon.

"Ahhhh! May the consciousness of God Hel always be with us! Come out! [Array of the Earth]!" Alice was stunned by the sight in front of her. She was distracted for a while, and then after reacting He spoke the last few words of the mantra as fast as he could.

As soon as the words fell, the magical incantation began to echo. The words composed of magic penetrated into the ground to form a magic circle, and because there were enemies within the magic circle, it took effect immediately.

With a few sounds of "Ka Ka Ka Ka!", the pseudo-dragon was blocked by several huge stone clusters.Its limbs were stuck in the cracks of the rocks and could not move, and Ivan Bell was able to get a chance to breathe.

Ivan Bell didn't have time to recall the scythe. Even if she recalled the scythe, it would still be stuck on the pseudo-dragon the next time she summoned it.

Who gave the skill [Weapon Aberration] a one-day cooldown? If she had known it, she wouldn't have to chop the city gate into pieces anymore.

"Ha... Huh... I almost thought my brain was about to be thrown out." Ivan Bell gasped with lingering fear, and there was a trace of resentment in her eyes when she looked at the pseudo-dragon.

While struggling, the pseudo-dragon felt a malicious gaze pinned on it. It was an intelligent species, so it naturally knew what the gaze contained.

Of course, it also remembers the enemy who threw the weapon at it.

"Roar!" The pseudo-dragon roared violently, and then purple flames shot out from its mouth.The flame was two or three meters long, and Ivan Bell had to jump off the stone cluster and hide behind the stone cluster to avoid the attack.

The stone cluster that was perfectly hit by the flame breath (poisoned version) became charred black, and some tiny debris detached from the main body of the stone cluster, and at the same time, there was a cracking sound.

[Earth Formation] cannot perfectly defend against the pseudo-dragon's breath. If it happens a few more times, the formation will be shattered by the pseudo-dragon's attack.

Time waits for no one, Evan Bell summons Alice and Starlight to launch a general attack with her.

"No matter what kind of magic it is, as long as the attack power is high enough, just throw it at me!" These were Ivan Bell's exact words.

Just like that, a meal of pseudo-dragon stew in a stone pot started cooking.

Flames and ice blades flew together, and it was unknown whether they would be effective against the pseudo-dragon's hard scales. Alice and Starlight still used various elemental magics in various ways.

On the other side, Ivan Bell untied the chain and turned it into an eternal fire. The fire wrapped around the pseudo-dragon's body, making it feel great discomfort.

The pseudo-dragon struggled in the earth formation. While it wanted to extinguish the ghost fire on its body that made it extremely uncomfortable, it also thought about escaping from the magic formation.

It used its strong body to hit the stone cluster in front of it. Soon, the stone cluster was covered with cracks.After two more attacks, the stone cluster was heroically sacrificed by the impact of the pseudo-dragon.

However, the fall of a mere stone cluster was not enough to allow the pseudo-dragon to escape.

The only thing to blame is that the Pseudodragon is too big.

Seeing that the pseudo-dragon still had some time to escape from the magic circle, Ivan Bell continued to attack.She stood at the tip of the stone cluster and threw down her sickle again.Just like the irritating but impossible mosquitoes in summer, when the pseudo-dragon was attacked by the sickle and wanted to shoot down Ivan Bell, she could always easily jump to another rock with the sickle. On the cluster.

Ivan Bell spun the pseudo-dragon around, but this also consumed a lot of her physical strength. However, under the attack of a super-large fireball released by Alice, the pseudo-dragon that would rather die than surrender finally let out a mournful cry and fell down.

The smell of meat came from the tattered stone clusters. The smell was so fragrant that it made the two of them salivate after not eating much all day.

But it was a monster, and it was poisonous.Even if it smells like barbecue, you can't eat it!

Alice wiped away the saliva that overflowed from the corner of her mouth, sniffed a few times, then turned and walked into the lair to find the herb called luminous flower.

There is a luminous flower growing near a small pond inside the nest. The flower, which is only the size of a fingernail, shows a fluorescent blue color, bringing a little glimmer of light into the dark nest.

Alice carefully took out a dagger and cut off a handful of luminous flowers by the roots. Did she forget to ask how many luminous flowers she wanted? But since the pseudo-dragons had turned into barbecues, no one would care about them picking all the flowers. Are you leaving?

The cloth pocket was filled with luminous flowers. Through the cloth, Alice and Ivan Bell could still see the faint light emanating from them.
