Chapter 345: Chapter 07: Blood Elf and Dragon Mercenary Group_2 Andrew looked a bit stunned. This wasn’t just a silly dragon, it was a sentimental one... *What kind of parents could have raised a dragon like this? If all dragons were like her, maybe they wouldn’t always be the bad guys in knight stories. Hmm... of course, it could be worse, she might just become the heroine, who knows?* Andrew sighed helplessly, "You really don’t want something to eat?" "No." Christina shook her head and replied seriously, "Dragons can go a long time without food, but when we do eat, we eat a lot. I ate a few days ago." "Alright, that sounds pretty convenient. Aren’t you going to ask me about the mission?" "Didn’t you say we’d go to the adventurer hall together?" Andrew smiled mysteriously and pulled out a scroll, "I picked up the mission along the way on my way back!" Christina was stunned, then cheered, crying with excitement like any ordinary little girl. A mere two hundred gold coin mission... life had really turned a dragon into this. Andrew sighed helplessly. ... During this period, the entire continent was undercurrents. The Lich King Gray was actively planning a northern expedition. The southern countries were busy preparing for war. The Dragon Clan were quarreling endlessly due to extremely deteriorated relations with the Undead Clan. Heaven was in turmoil due to upcoming route reforms, and Hell had already extended their claws toward the Keltos Continent. The future Lord of Giant Snake City, Hydra Knight Jones, had just left Gray’s camp and returned home, newly informed of the engagement with his cousin. The conflict with his father had not yet truly erupted. A Hydra already resided in Giant Snake City, but it went by another name. But none of this seemed to have anything to do with what was happening in Linlopes, at least not yet. Linlopes was a period of tranquility. "From now on, all your actions will follow my instructions. Although you are the corps commander, you have to listen to me. You must not do anything I forbid you to do, unless you want to never receive another mission again. Understand?" "Mm!" Christina nodded heavily. Under the blue moonlight, the two quietly sneaked to a heavily guarded mansion. "Do I need to turn into a dragon?" "No, there’s no need. Our task is only to help our employer retrieve a locket his son lost at the casino." "Are we stealing?" "No, we’re helping, not stealing. We’re helping someone in need." From afar, they could see a large group of mercenaries gathering at the mansion gate, facing off against the guards. The mansion’s owner was arguing with the mercenary corps commander at the door, or rather, they were shouting. In fact, they were really shouting, but the fight hadn’t started. "What are those people doing?" "They’re the ones who took the same mission as us. If we don’t take it away, the owner will have endless trouble. We’re helping him." Andrew took off his coat and handed it to Christina, saying, "Wait for me here, don’t go anywhere." Before Christina could react, he had already leapt over the wall. *You have to admit, elves are not only more suited to being mages than humans but also better archers and thieves—of course, only if they had no moral compass, like Andrew.* About half an hour later, Andrew climbed back over the wall, holding a locket. "You got it!" "Yes, two hundred gold coins in hand." Shaking the locket in his hand, Andrew hurriedly put on his coat and quietly left with Christina, leaving only a trail of footprints in the snow. At the gate, the argument between the mansion owner and the mercenary corps was still unresolved. ... "Woo-hoo!" Ecstatically kissing the locket in his hand, the chubby middle-aged man promptly handed a bag with two hundred gold coins to Andrew, "Well done, I didn’t expect you to complete the mission so soon. Truly worthy of a Blood Elf. If it wasn’t for that guy causing a scene this morning, I wouldn’t have known. Hahaha." "Thanks, boss. Remember to find us for your next mission. Remember, we’re the Blood Elf and Dragon Mercenary Group!" "I will, definitely!" Juggling the gold coins in his hand, Andrew leisurely walked to the counter under the gaze of the guard commander and picked up a new mission scroll. ... In the wilderness, a beast resembling a lion was chasing Andrew at full speed. "Faster—!" "Roar—!" With a roar, Christina, in her dragon form, descended from the sky and pressed the beast firmly. Under the dragon’s might, the beast didn’t dare move. ... "So soon? It’s been less than half a day since you took the mission!" the young lady at the counter exclaimed. "Mainly because it wasn’t far." Andrew shrugged. "But that was a beast... Don’t you usually have to track its movements and set traps?" "That’s for others, I don’t need to." Andrew smiled and took the next mission. The guard commander stood by, stunned. ... An open area outside the city. "Wait here." "Didn’t you say I would handle the fights?" "This level of fight doesn’t need you." After settling Christina aside, Andrew walked step by step to the center, facing dozens of armored "thugs" alone. Moments later, the thugs were all lying on the ground. The ground beside them had a crater caused by magic. ... "My goodness, you’re now the most efficient corps commander here!" the young lady at the counter couldn’t help but exclaim. "Thank you for the compliment, but maybe I’m not doing enough. After all, the adventurer hall hasn’t decided to sign me yet." Saying that, Andrew smiled and glanced at the guard commander beside him. ... It had to be said, the combination of a Blood Elf and a dragon was perfect. Especially since the Blood Elf was a mage and the dragon was obedient. Andrew handled the clever tasks, while Christina dealt with those requiring force. Basically, as soon as she revealed her dragon form, no force was needed. Because neither humans nor animals wanted to provoke a dragon. Thus, the Blood Elf and Dragon Mercenary Group took on various missions at a pace of three per day, sometimes three, sometimes five. They finished extremely quickly. Besides money-making tasks, Andrew also specifically took on tasks favorable for building fame. "Finding lost children. The reward is just one silver coin, but you’ll gain the appreciation of Linlopes’ mothers." "Retrieving stolen unsellable goods. You’ll gain profit-sharing rights from those goods and the friendship of Linlopes’ goblin chamber of commerce." "Rescuing people trapped by a snowstorm in the mountains. You’ll gain the gratitude of the families of Linlopes’ hunters." These were tasks that nobody usually noticed, but Andrew took them without hesitation and completed them quickly and perfectly. After all, with a dragon by his side, distance wasn’t an issue. They could fly three thousand kilometers at night to bring back special medicine to save critically ill patients. None of it was a problem for a dragon. In just a month, the Blood Elf and Dragon Mercenary Group not only cleared old debts, fixed the house, and replaced all the furniture, but also accumulated over five thousand gold coins. Five thousand gold coins, piled up, formed a small hill. Christina happily rolled on the gold coins. Andrew sighed helplessly, "Just five thousand gold coins can make a dragon this happy?" "I’ve never saved this much money. In fact, I’ve never saved more than two thousand gold coins." Christina said, holding the gold coins, "I’ve never even thought I could save this much money." "Don’t worry, there will be more in the future." Andrew replied with a smile. The next day, Andrew appeared at the adventurer hall, ready to take on new missions. However, the guard commander stopped him. "Sir, I heard you’re still doing missions with Christina, is that true? The ’dragon’ in the Blood Elf and Dragon Mercenary Group is Christina." "Yes." Andrew answered without hesitation. Withdrawing the hand that blocked Andrew, the guard commander made way, saying softly, "Our boss wants to see you." *Alright, it was finally time to lay cards on the table.* Andrew’s lips curled up slightly.
