Chapter 27 The village that issued the commission
Because the Demon Poison Dragon previously lived in this area, the poisonous mist emitted from its body caused serious pollution of the surrounding air and water sources.
Because of this, the people in the surrounding villages had no choice but to pool together a sum of money and entrust the Adventurer's Guild to send powerful adventurers to reject the poisonous dragon that lives here.
“Village Chief, can the adventurers entrusted by the Adventurer’s Guild really be able to deal with the poisonous dragon?
The water source in the village has been completely exhausted. The poisonous river water and well water cannot irrigate the farmland at all. Sooner or later we will not be able to live like this. "
“Yes, Village Chief, have we gone too far this time? The lord has obviously supported us with enough gold coins, so why should we lie about the difficulty of the task?
This will not only offend the Adventurer's Guild, but also delay the successful attack on the Poisonous Dragon even longer. "
In the village, two young men looked at the old village chief in front of them with a look of resentment.
Since their village was the largest among the surrounding villages, their village went to the Adventurer's Guild to announce the commission to defeat the Demonic Poison Dragon. As for lying about the difficulty of the task, it was the old village chief's idea.
“Are you idiots? That poisonous dragon is a dragon! Even if it is a subspecies, it is a real dragon.
I don’t know if there are any adventurers in the Adventurer’s Guild who can attack him, but in my opinion the number of such adventurers should be very rare.
And the little money we have is not enough to pay the other party.
So what I do is actually for the sake of our village. If the problem of the Demonic Poison Dragon cannot be resolved, will our village need to be relocated? And these actions all cost money. If we don't set aside some funds, how can the villagers survive those difficult days after our migration? "
An old man in a village is like a treasure. After hearing what the old villager said, the two young men also showed the same expressions on their faces. However, at this time, a voice intervened in their conversation.
“So, how about retaining enough funds to make a decision before taking action? As the head of a village, it is indeed quite rare for you to be able to consider this for your own villagers.
But your villagers are safe. I wonder if you have ever considered what will happen to the adventurers who come after you lie about the difficulty of the mission?
Originally, what he was fighting was a five-meter-long poisonous giant lizard monster, but it turned out to be a subspecies of poisonous dragon that was over fifteen meters long.
Adventurers who have obtained wrong information come here, and there is almost no other possibility except to die, and all this is just because of your selfishness.
Could it be said that the villagers in your village are human lives, and the lives of the adventurers who come here are not human lives? "
Previously, Ye Cheng thought that the surrounding villages lied about the difficulty of the mission simply because he was short of money. Although he loved money, he also had a bottom line and sense of propriety. He came here just to convey that the Demonic Poison Dragon had been defeated.
But after hearing the conversation just now, Ye Cheng was quite unhappy now. It turns out that these villages are not unable to come up with money, but they just don’t believe that adventurers can defeat the poisonous dragon, so they symbolically issued tasks to deceive the local lords, but in fact they were secretly preparing to move the entire village.
If it weren't for him who received the mission this time, and if he was strong enough, he, Ye Cheng, might also have become a victim of the poisonous dragon!
"Who are you, and why do you care about our village's affairs? Adventurers are not like this to begin with. Besides, we don't force those adventurers to accept the commission we issue."
Looking at Ye Cheng and Shima Yosuke who appeared at the entrance of the village, the two young men who were talking to the old village suddenly looked unhappy and stepped forward to drive them away and tell them to mind their own business.
However, as fast as the two young men rushed up, they flew out at the same speed.
Facing the two miscellaneous fish, Ye Cheng didn't need to take any serious action at all. He just swept away with one hand. The two tall young men were immediately swept away by the strong wind, and their bodies were thrown away like large garbage. Landed on the ground and collapsed.
“Who are you, sir? I don’t remember any enmity between our village and you.”
Looking at Ye Cheng who flung away two strong men in the village with one hand, the old village chief seemed to realize that Ye Cheng was a character not to be trifled with. However, he was really confused as to why Ye Cheng was meddling in his own business. .
Logically speaking, if the other person is someone who has a grudge against the village, it is impossible for him as a villager not to know the other person. After all, Ye Cheng is so handsome, and with such good looks, there is no reason for him to have no impression of the other person.
Especially when a handsome man like Ye Cheng is accompanied by another guy who looks like a half-orc. Such a highly contrasting combination should attract attention instantly no matter where he goes.
“I don’t like to be nosy, but the point of the problem is that I am the adventurer who takes advantage of you.
I foolishly thought that the target of my subjugation was a giant lizard, but when I got here I discovered that the target of my subjugation had changed from a giant lizard to a giant dragon. Now, do you think this has anything to do with me? "
Hearing what Ye Cheng said, the old village chief also showed an ugly expression. He never thought that they would be so unlucky to reveal their original purpose in front of the person who suffered them.
"Village chief, this... is the poisonous dragon. It was killed by...!"
When one of the two strong young men who were beaten to the ground by Ye Cheng was about to get up, he finally noticed the huge corpse dragged behind Ye Cheng. When he took a closer look, he was shocked to find, That was actually the poisonous dragon that had been poisoning their village for a long time!
As the village chief said before, the Demonic Poison Dragon is a subspecies of Poison Dragon. It is over fifteen meters long and is already an adult. It is an existence that ordinary humans cannot defeat.
To conquer such a being, one needs either a perfectly equipped team of high-level adventurers or an active army, but only two people on the other side were able to kill such a dangerous and powerful poisonous dragon!
“It turns out to be the adventurer. I would like to thank you two for defeating the poisonous dragon and helping us and the surrounding villages eradicate this cancer.
As for the remuneration, we can further discuss it, and please give us a chance to explain and apologize for this incident. "
Hearing the young man's exclamation, the old village chief also walked quickly behind Ye Cheng and the others, and looked at the poisonous dragon that was divided into two halves, as if it could no longer die. He looked surprised at first, and then for I bowed and apologized to the two people in Ye City for my previous behavior.
The opponent could kill the poisonous dragon and drag a corpse weighing several tons effortlessly so far. No matter how you looked at it, he was not an ordinary character. Therefore, the old village chief, who was flexible and flexible, immediately changed his previous attitude and now towards Ye City The two of them were extremely respectful.
