The Cursed Dragon and His Human Knight (Part 4)
The amount of gold coins Song Ning spent on Alpha over the years was not a small amount, so when Alpha asked him to follow him to get the gold coins, Song Ning followed him without any doubt.
The kingdom they live in, the Drai Empire, is a huge empire that occupies 1/3 of the continent. The origin of the Drai Empire has a history of nearly a thousand years. There are various races on this land, all of which are bloodlines left behind by stories in the long river of history.
For example, the place they are going to now is the Elf Vault.
Song Ning had never seen the elves, although this race was the only existing immortal species that maintained friendly relations with humans.
However, there were rumors about the elves about three hundred years ago that there was a problem with the elves' natural mother tree. The fountain of life in the Elf Forest was said to be mysteriously polluted, causing the natural mother tree to absorb toxic substances and no longer be able to give birth to newborns normally. Therefore, until now, the elves have rarely shown their faces in public.
But even so, as the only existing immortal species, the elves' elven vaults are still spread across the entire continent.
When Song Ning was following Alpha, he saw a wizard tower not far away from him.
The golden building next to the Mage Tower, which is almost identical to the Mage Tower, is the Elf Vault.
That's right, the Elf Vault does not need any elves to guard it, because this group of immortals has the longest lifespan. The entire building and the wizard tower are filled with various top-level magic arrays. So far, no one has been able to cause trouble in the vault.
Alpha suddenly sped up a few steps and Song Ning subconsciously followed him.
Alpha turned his head away in displeasure: "You don't have to follow me so closely, do you? I've already come here with you, are you still afraid that I'll default on you?"
Song Ning paused for a moment and said sincerely.
"The main reason is that your reputation has been greatly reduced in my eyes, not to mention such a large sum of money."
In fact, he was very curious whether Alpha could come up with such a large sum of money, but since the other party agreed, he would just wait to get the money. As for whether Alpha could come up with the money and where it came from, Song Ning no longer wanted to care about it.
Alpha was choked, gritting his teeth with an ugly expression.
"Song Ning! Are you really going to go this far?"
Song Ning didn't understand what he meant by "this level", but when he saw Alpha's sour face, he realized for the first time that he was really blind before.
How could he have thought Alpha was good before? He was so rude even when it came to paying back his debts, how good could his character be?
He looked around and found a pillar to lean against that allowed him to see the vault door.
"Well, it's okay for me to wait for you here, right?"
Song Ning was suspicious, "You don't want to run away, do you?"
Alpha snorted heavily, turned around and strode towards the Elven vault.
As long as he was willing to go in and get the money, Song Ning breathed a sigh of relief. He relaxed a little and leaned against the pillar. His eyes were still fixed on that place, but his mind had already started thinking about other things.
After getting the money, Song Ning thought, he would use a portion of it to explain to the other members of the mercenary group and then disband the mercenary group as severance pay.
He actually didn't want to be a mercenary anymore a long time ago. Although they were already a C-level mercenary group, the life of a mercenary was not easy.
Every time they took on a mission, they had to sleep in the open air. Except for Alpha, the fragile magician who was well taken care of, he, as the highest-level swordsman, had to take turns to keep watch with the other people in the mercenary group. Song Ning couldn't remember how long it had been since he let down his guard and had a good sleep.
It's actually not a bad idea to think about it this way. With the gold coins, he can find a small town that is not harassed by monsters and buy a two-story shop. He can buy some monster corpses and sell monster meat downstairs, and sleep upstairs.
Thinking of this, Song Ning even felt that the scorching sun above his head was not so hot, and even a little cool.
Just as Song Ning curled up the corner of his mouth into a smile, his wrist suddenly touched back subconsciously!
"Boom!"
He fell heavily to the ground with his limbs stiff.
A masked figure walked out from the shadows and let out a light exclamation.
"A B-rank swordsman has such keen perception. No wonder he can become the leader of a mercenary group."
He walked up to Song Ning, who was glaring at him, with a look of regret on his face.
"What a pity, you offended someone you shouldn't have offended."
