Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Fight to the Finish with You

  (Second update has been sent~)

  Dororo sympathized with the earth spirit's anger, for even if it were a human, losing one's wife would be unbearable for any man.

  However, the goblin leader was apparently dazed and suspected that his queen had been kidnapped by a human merchant caravan, claiming that she was the most beautiful among all goblins.

  Everyone is furious - this is just too unreasonable!!

  What's the most beautiful thing among the dwarves? Get out! Even if it were the most beautiful one among the dwarves, in human eyes, it would be nothing but a dirty and weak beast that doesn't care about hygiene! Apart from the dwarves themselves, who would be interested in this "beauty"?

  How much can a kidnapped earth spirit sell for at the slave market?!

  But the furious earth spirit leader didn't think so, it felt the green and oily danger on its head, in a fit of rage, it decided to capture all humans in the merchant team and turn them into dried meat!

  Duoduo knew how the earth spirits would treat captured humans, and although he was thin and weak, with little fat on his body, in the skilled hands of the earth spirits who were good at using food, even if he became twice as thin, the experienced earth spirits could still extract oil from his body!

  Fortunately, the merchant caravan had a lot of goods and many captives. Duoduo Luo was clever and took advantage of an opportunity to slip away quietly.

  Originally he ran away alone in the wilderness, and finally more than half of them were taken away by wolves or encountered goblins and became their dinner.

  But fortunately, he met several humans!

  He saw a bonfire on the wilderness at night, and whoever lit a bonfire in the wilderness must be human. Although encountering human adventurers would also end badly, it was still much better than being eaten by wolves or goblins.

  When the starving and thirsty Duoduo ran over, he was already on the verge of a mental breakdown. He decided to take a risk!

  When a person is forced into a desperate situation, he will always burst out with unparalleled courage!

  At that time, Dororo was like this, his anger rising from the bottom of his heart, evil growing in his gallbladder, rushing to the human camp, shouting loudly: "No one is allowed to move! Robbery!! Hand over food and water! I am a magician!!"

  The sound of this angry roar echoed far and wide in the wilderness, and several humans in the camp seemed to be shaken by Dororo's bravery.

  After a few seconds, those people suddenly burst out laughing.

  "Wizards? We're all wizards!"

  Duoduo Luo took a closer look and was shocked...

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, all six people in front of him were his fellow practitioners!

  What made Duoduo even more stunned was that the six magicians in front of him, the badges on their chests were at least silver, and one of them was actually wearing a gold badge!

  A first-rate magician... actually came to rob six intermediate and advanced magicians...

  The collapsing Duduo saw a mage across from him raise his staff, and his courage turned to nothing. He fell to his knees with a thud, begging for mercy with snot and tears, rapidly recounting his tragic experiences.

  Finally...

  After hearing Doro's tragic story, the magician put down his magic wand. Several masters looked at each other and sighed simultaneously.

  "As a magician, it's really rare for someone like you to turn out this way."

  After all, everyone is a magician, even if they are now very powerful masters, they were also once beginners who stepped up one step at a time. Seeing a newcomer struggling so miserably and being sold into slavery as a magician really brought tears to the eyes of several magicians, evoking feelings of sadness and sympathy.

  "Alright, since you're also a magician, although your powers are weak, just follow us then. Anyway, we came here to take care of some business and none of us brought an apprentice, so it's not bad to have someone around to do some odd jobs."

  Duoduo felt grateful and thought that he had finally received the blessings of the gods after all his hardships.

  But he didn't know if these magicians' intentions were truly pure...

  It should be a glorious thing to hunt down a dragon, and it should be made public to increase one's reputation and prestige.

  However, these six magician seniors made things very secretive, and even the people around them didn't know, not even bringing a single disciple when they went out.

  Because the six people were very clear about their own strength, although they were also among the best in the wizarding world, but still a far cry from the legendary dragon-slaying masters. Because they heard that this dragon was in a weakened state, they dared to try, after all, being able to hunt and kill a dragon and obtain those coveted top-level magical materials from its body was something worth risking life and limb for any wizard!

  But this matter must be kept absolutely confidential!

  Not to mention, once successful, letting others know that they have obtained some magical materials from the dragon's body, as the saying goes, "a weak man is innocent, but a strong man is guilty", in case there are other powerful magicians who see it and come to take it by force - on this continent, there really are several powerful but unreasonable people! They can't resist themselves.

  So this kind of thing can only be done secretly from now on.

  Another reason is that the title of "Dragon Slayer" is glorious, but it must have sufficient strength as its foundation! If several adults' strengths really reached the level of a great demon master, they would naturally do this thing with grandeur.

  The problem is that everyone's strength is barely enough compared to the past, but more than enough compared to the future. If the news really leaks out... then troubles will come one after another!

  A tall tree catches much wind.

  Nowadays, the world is like a big ocean where the back wave pushes forward the front wave, and the front wave dies on the beach... Every year, countless new people with muddled heads and brains come out, trying to get ahead. These loudmouthed newcomers are everywhere, wide-eyed and looking for opportunities to climb up.

  Are you a "Dragon Slayer" at this time? Great! Just in time to step on your position!!

  And you're just a guy with the title of "Dragon Slayer" but actually has average abilities? Great! Who else should I bully if not you?!?!

  Once the news leaks out, just wait for countless newbies to come and challenge!

  Taking you down wouldn't that prove my strength surpasses even "Dragon Slayer"'s?

  So this time all actions were strictly confidential, six magicians went out alone, without even bringing their closest disciples.

  As a result, the six adults were in trouble. At home, with their status, they were all dignified and luxurious, even when going to the toilet and sitting on the toilet, there was a beautiful female apprentice holding incense beside them.

  These six masters, who didn't even touch onions and ginger water when they went out, had really suffered. In the town of Wildfire, there were still inns and taverns to enjoy, but after arriving at the Wildfire Plains, they hadn't eaten their fill for several days. The cold, hard biscuits were really difficult to swallow, and even drinking water was half-cooked. These masters were all quite skilled, easily able to hunt down a few prey, but unfortunately, no one knew how to cook!

  Tonight, a fire mage finally couldn't bear it and personally took action. A "Burst of Flame" spell was cast, instantly engulfing the incoming antelope in a red flame, roasting it to a crisp. However, he accidentally forgot that this fire magic had an additional explosive attribute, resulting in a loud explosion that blew the antelope into over ten pieces, even shattering the iron pot used for burning meat.

  It just so happens that this clumsy Dororo who suddenly appeared looks silly, and is also a magician, which makes him a kindred spirit. I might as well bring him along as my attendant, and have someone to serve me for food, drink, and other daily needs.

  As for after things have been accomplished... in order to keep it a secret... humph.

  Magician, can't you just kill someone?

  ……

  Dorothy was also a person who had suffered, but she didn't seem as pampered and delicate as these few gentlemen. Following behind the several adults, she actually served them with ease, and the roasted meat was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, finally ending the days of eating dry crackers for the several noble magician gentlemen.

  What a mess!

  He alone had to attend to six masters, or rather six masters who were tortured by the wilderness and became irritable. He had to make dinner for six people, roast six different flavors of game, wash clothes for six people, and boil bath water for six people - once these six masters had someone to serve them, they really cared about everything!

  He really took this outdoor adventure as his own home travel.

  Duoduo Luo was so tired every day that his back ached, and after several days, he became even thinner.

  The worst thing is that he finally arrived in this mountain, Duoduo learned that the six uncles were running to find a dragon to seek evil spirits... He shed tears in his heart and felt that he was really hopeless.

  Duoduo is not a fool. He clearly saw the contrast in strength: these six masters can wipe themselves out with just a wave of their hands, and that dragon, probably just needs to swing its claws to wipe out these six masters!

  ……

  …………

  "If it weren't for you! How would I have ended up like this!!"

  One by one, the past scenes flashed through Duoduo Luo's mind like lightning. He let out a furious roar and grabbed Xia Ya's neck: "Anyway, we're dead for sure today, I'll fight it out with you!!"

  Xia Ya felt inexplicable - wasn't one robe worth risking everything for?

  At this moment, the dragon on the mountain let out a roar, and a dazzling cyan-gray light burst out from its body!

  With a loud crash, the clear ripples shook open, and the four magicians on the mountain top were swept away by the light wave. The originally transparent layer of defensive light screen shattered with a loud noise!

  In the midst of the dragon's loud roar, one of the wizards at the forefront suddenly let out a miserable cry in the light wave, his wand shattered inch by inch, and his clothes were torn to shreds. After the light wave oscillated, all the flesh and blood on his body was stripped away from his body in an instant, leaving only a skeleton in the blink of an eye.

  The remaining three magicians also let out a miserable cry, and didn't care about hunting the dragon anymore. They turned around and flew down the mountain, with the dragon closely following behind them.

  Xia Ya felt a chill run down her spine as she watched the guys on top of the mountain coming down, and quickly jumped up, grabbing the poor worm: "Escape is urgent!"

  He had just shouted, but found that Ada was already gone - damn it! This guy actually ran faster than me!

  Xia Ya took big strides and walked, Totoro wouldn't let go of the culprit who had harmed himself, clinging to Xia Ya's body with both hands, as if he was a koala bear.

  Looking at Duoduo hanging on Xiaya's back, struggling in pain, the poor worm, who was also being dragged by Xiaya, couldn't help but whisper: "Hey, are you okay?"

  "Ah...!" Doro finally saw the pitiful creature's appearance clearly and suddenly his eyes widened: "You, you are!!"

  Unfortunately, he didn't finish speaking... Behind him, three magicians and a dragon chasing from behind suddenly appeared right in front of them!

  With a loud roar, the giant dragon spat out another ball of green breath!

  I'm really exhausted, it's already 10 o'clock at night and I haven't even brushed my teeth or washed my face yet... and I haven't eaten dinner either...... I'm a patient, after all!
