Chapter 70 Chapter 70 I like black hair.
Su Cheng: “…”
Could it be that she really has the physique that the dragon clan likes?
Maybe I can really become a dragon knight?
In the original novel, Lin Yun actually rarely fights seriously, and similar plots are more of a prelude to pornographic things. The same is probably true for the ancient dragon king’s wife in the spoilers.
and--
She killed Earl Gawler's son, destroyed the family, caused a falling out between Xiao Lan and Murong Yue, and a lot of other miscellaneous things.
Butterfly had forgotten most of the plots in the original novel, and she didn't expect certain things to happen, such as the setting of distributing dragon mounts.
Su Cheng still hasn't figured out the relationship between the Dragon Clan and the two Supreme Gods' camps.
She also didn't know who Lin Yun's wife, the Ancient Dragon King, was.
I only got a glimpse of this incident in the spoilers of Duan Ping, but the specific name was not mentioned at all - if it was from the Dark God camp, it might have been a failure.
Although her relationship with that side seems a bit delicate now.
For a moment, she remembered the God of Lust leaning on the steps, allowing himself to be picked, and the God of Jealousy leaning on the couch, staring at her.
Su Cheng: “…”
Su Cheng suppressed the two beautiful faces that appeared in his mind.
She looked up. "Can I touch him?"
"Okay," the dragon knight nodded, "but stay away from his eyes."
Su Cheng gently touched the side of the ceratopsian's neck, and the dragon beast made a slight snoring sound, seeming to be quite happy.
She petted two dragons in one day and was in a very happy mood. When she passed by the dragon knights of the city defense army, she found that several horned dragons were sniffing.
Su Cheng: “?”
Do they all like the taste of that little flying dragon?
She continued walking eastward. The long street in the commercial district was filled with a wide variety of shops, some large and some small, selling a wide variety of goods.
The windows of silk and spice shops are colorful, and the various magic alchemy workshops are even more dazzling. Magic circles of different sizes spread from the walls to the counters, protecting all kinds of rare props.
Su Cheng stopped in front of a weapons store.
The shop had an elegant facade, with sets of gorgeous armor standing behind the crystal windows, ranging from light leather armor to heavy plate armor. Next to each set of armor were weapons inlaid with gems, including swords, spears, and axes.
I don't know how practical it is, but it is indeed very decorative. It looks more like a collection or something used by a performance guard.
She stared at one of the sets of heavy black armor inlaid with gold threads, and imagined that if the captain wore it, he would probably be on the cover of a magazine.
Although he probably prefers exposure.
Su Cheng's thoughts drifted for a moment.
There is also a larger weapons shop on the corner of the street. The decoration style of the shop is more low-key and simple. The wooden wall panels are hung with weapons, and the air is filled with the smell of rust, leather and old wood.
"...No, the Black Scale Stone is indeed hard enough, but its affinity as a carrier of Dou Qi is too poor. At least it doesn't match our Dou Qi properties. Not to mention amplification, even the flow of Dou Qi is not smooth..."
The flames in the fireplace burned low, casting a flowing copper-red hue on the displayed swords.
"...Ripple iron is indeed possible, but I need it to be air-forged and folded at least three hundred times, and the iron base must be infused with mithril of sufficient purity and..."
The sound of hammering continued to come from the workshop at the back, the forging hammer vibrated on the anvil, and the lingering sound echoed in the slightly quiet shop.
Next to the counter in the middle of the hall, there was an extremely tall man, whose broad and powerful back almost covered half of the weapon rack on the wall.
He lowered his head slightly, with flames flowing among his jet-black curly hair, and his snow-white skin was covered with a layer of dim flame shadow. The lines of his full muscles were smooth and sharp, with a sense of strength that had been tempered through thousands of blows.
The steel shoulder armor and chest armor were tightened with leather belts, and the exposed strong waist and abdomen rose and fell slightly with breathing.
His expression was serious, his handsome and flawless profile was like a sculpture, his long eyelashes drooped, half covering his gilded eyes.
"You can take a look at the samples."
The counter was shorter than usual, and the owner behind it was also short, probably of dwarf descent. He was taking out a piece of black and white metal ore from the drawer.
He placed the ore on the table. "Mother mentioned you. She said she had never seen such material before, and that the sword she made for you was the most satisfying work of her life..."
As the boss spoke, he held out a short-handled battle axe with both hands and said, "Since you are a regular customer and an expert, you can take a look at the finished product first..."
The axe blade was quite wide, and the sharp edge was like a crescent moon. The blade was about twenty centimeters long, and the edge was polished very finely.
The back of the axe is thicker, covered with irregular bumps and lines, and there is a small diamond-shaped sapphire decoration in the center, which contrasts with the dark blue lines running on the axe face.
The black-haired man reached out to take it, and casually weighed it. The muscles in his strong forearms suddenly bulged, and the blue veins were like coiled tree roots.
He turned his head while holding the battle axe, and the firelight reflected from the sharp blade swept across his sharp jaw.
Their eyes met.
Su Cheng waved to him and said, "I thought you were still drinking at this time."
The dark-haired man smiled, "I have more important things to do."
He turned and strode over.
The moment the shadows cast by the two bodies intersected, Su Cheng felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart.
In fact, they had only not seen each other for one day, but she inexplicably felt as if they had been separated for a long time, and was excited about meeting again after a long separation.
So he subconsciously stretched out his arm.
Su Cheng imagined a hug from an old friend, but realized a moment later that given their height difference, it could only be facial cleanser.
The next second, Kai put his arm around her waist and picked her up.
Su Cheng took advantage of the situation and hooked his neck, "Captain——"
He paused.
They were so close that the black-haired man took a deep breath, as if he smelled something.
Su Cheng was about to hug him, but was stunned when he saw this, "What's wrong?"
Kai blinked, "Did you go touch another dragon?"
"Oh," Su Cheng was stunned for a moment, "I just met a man with a baby flying dragon and a group of ceratopsians. Wow, you can smell that?"
He watched her expression and noticed the smile between her eyebrows when she spoke. He couldn't help but curl his lips, "It seems that you really like dragons."
He then gave her a full hug, resting his chin on the girl's shoulder, "...That's good. You're recovering."
"Thanks."
Su Cheng gently patted the man's thick back. He could feel the muscular muscles even through the cloak. The fur was warmed by the sun, as if he was caressing some large beast.
"I wasn't seriously injured, I was just a little overdrawn."
She whispered, "I heard it was you who sent me to the temple—"
"You've been on the road a lot these days," he said, straightening up a little. "They'll put you in better shape. How are you feeling now?"
"Excellent!"
Su Cheng supported the man's broad and powerful shoulders, feeling the vibration of his chest when he spoke. "Actually, I just slept for a while, but I feel like I've made a lot of progress!"
"Yeah, I can feel it too."
Kai leaned over and put her back on the ground, then handed her the battle axe in his other hand. "Try it."
Su Cheng was about to take it but hesitated, "Can I hold it?"
"Two hands."
"good."
She took it as if facing a formidable enemy and found that she could indeed hold it, but she could only hold it upside down from above, and it was quite difficult to swing it.
However, the attempt that the team leader asked her to make was definitely not referring to this.
Su Cheng tried to use his fighting spirit, and a line of black flame flashed across the axe blade.
The dark and eerie flames quickly enveloped the entire axe surface.
"Is it still running smoothly?" Kai asked. "From the moment you injected your Dou Qi into it until now, has it been lost? How is its responsiveness?"
Su Cheng tried it several times. "The main thing is that I haven't tried many weapons, so it's hard to compare. Besides, don't we have the same fighting spirit?"
"Different people may feel it differently, but if there's no noticeable stagnation, then it's generally fine."
Kai took the axe. "The owner of this shop made my sword, but she has passed away. I wanted her to make another one--"
Su Cheng suddenly remembered that he had promised to get him a sword.
It's amazing.
Just a few minutes ago she was debating whether or not to give him a suit of armor.
Of course, she did it purely because she thought the outfit looked so handsome and she thought it would look great on him.
"Well, actually, you don't have to take it so seriously. I'm not in a hurry. Oh, by the way, I have something to tell you!"
She apologized to the shop owner and hurriedly pulled the team leader out. The latter still let her pull the wristband and was led to the door by her.
Su Cheng pulled out an invitation from his arms and handed it to him like a treasure, "Look!"
The parchment invitation was sealed with gold-stamped wax, and the wax seal was the gold coin rose emblem of the Oulu family.
Kai raised his eyebrows slightly, "This is——"
"Invitation to the Jinzhan Palace banquet!"
The girl in front of him said happily, looking up at him with a smile, as if she was trying hard to suppress the corners of her mouth from curling up.
"I woke up and received a lot of mail, and this was mixed in with it."
She raised her chin. "Let's not bother getting invitations! It seems like some important people get invited automatically—"
Kai couldn't help but laugh, reaching out and touching her head, "Indeed, this great man."
Su Cheng met those golden eyes full of smiles and felt a little embarrassed for no reason. "...I was just kidding."
Xuan recalled the previous scene, "Wait, did you see that there was something wrong with that guy? That's why you said that before I went to fight."
"I can sense that there is some power in him that doesn't belong to him, but his body isn't strong enough to fully utilize it."
Kai thought for a moment, "So if he loses control, then his ending will probably not be good. So this is an opportunity for you, because he is destined not to be able to maintain that state for long."
Su Cheng shrugged, "Indeed, I think it's worth it."
Kai seemed about to say something, but when he noticed that she couldn't help glancing into the store, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you want to try another weapon?"
Su Cheng was actually quite curious, especially since her fighting spirit had reached a higher level and her strength was much greater than before.
Otherwise, I probably wouldn't be able to lift the axe.
Su Cheng: "I basically don't use any of them, except——"
She suddenly remembered what her swordsmanship teacher had taught her.
However, there were no rapiers in the shop.
Perhaps it's because the forging here is dwarven-style, and that race doesn't like this kind of weapon. If it were an elven shop, maybe it would be okay.
Kai glanced at her and didn't ask any more questions. He just continued casually, "Actually, in combat, there are some techniques for circulating Dou Qi—"
He casually picked up a conical spiked war hammer from the wall, with blood grooves between the edges that gleamed with cold light.
Seeing that he seemed to want to hand it over, Su Cheng subconsciously wanted to take it.
Kai didn't give it to her immediately. Instead, he tapped her right arm with his other hand, his cool fingertips brushing over her radial elbow in turn, and then sliding from her shoulder to her lumbar spine.
"Fighting Qi." He reminded, "With the fighting qi content in your body now, you can strengthen it at a critical moment."
Su Cheng tried to circulate his fighting spirit and gather it in several places, then took the hammer and found that he could hold it with one hand, although it was still a bit heavy.
Kai smiled and said, "This is heavier than the axe just now."
Su Cheng became more and more happy, and couldn't help but try to swing the hammer. The black fire on the hammer head flashed and disappeared.
“…feel the weight of it.”
The man next to her gently held her hand, his palm completely covering the back of her hand, then guided it slightly upwards while tapping her shoulder.
"Don't be so nervous."
He stood behind her, the warmth of his chest coming through the thin clothing.
Su Cheng tilted his head slightly and felt as if he was surrounded by a snow-capped mountain emitting cold air, with a faint aroma of wine and metallic scent lingering at the tip of his nose.
"It's different from those lightweight weapons. You let it fall naturally, and then drive it—"
His breath brushed over her head, "For low-level warriors, the posture and habits of exerting force will affect the performance of fighting spirit."
Su Cheng nodded and tried to swing the battle axe according to his instructions. It really became smoother and the black flame attached to the fighting spirit burned more and more vigorously.
There seemed to be a figure at the door in my peripheral vision.
She turned her head.
A blond man in a dark red robe and a top hat stood in front of the door. The brim of the hat was pulled down so low that only the sharp lines of his jaw could be seen.
Su Cheng: "...Oh? You're coming back?"
After we parted at the bookstore, I didn't know what this guy was doing.
Camus folded his arms and looked at them, his expression unclear under the brim of his hat. "I hope I didn't interrupt this warm teaching experience."
Kai took the hammer from her and put it back in its place. "Considering the current situation, it's hard to say that there is absolutely no—"
Su Cheng couldn't help but look sideways.
Mainly because I didn't expect him to speak like that.
Although it was more of a joke.
The black-haired man tilted his head to look at her and winked at her with a sly look on his face. "But we still have a lot of time. How about you guys?"
“Not very good.”
The figure of a vampire appeared at the door.
He walked up the steps and into the shop. "I've met so many people along the way. It's no exaggeration to say that everyone who came out of the temple..."
The silver-haired young man frowned slightly, and an undisguised look of disgust appeared on his handsome face. His crimson eyes turned and fell on the face of the girl in front of him.
Sasha: "...It's like sleeping with the God of Light."
Su Cheng sneered, "They'd probably love it if you saw how excited they were in the square."
Sasha raised her eyebrows slightly, "What about you? Do you want to try it too?"
"No," Su Cheng said immediately, "I don't like—"
She remembered that in the original novel, the God of Light disguised himself as an innocent girl and tricked the hero. She wanted to say that she liked neither little girls nor little boys, but this sounded too weird.
And the point is not about the beautiful boy.
If the God of Light is very good at judging people and wants to stimulate a certain protective desire or heroic complex in the target, he may turn into a wounded puppy, kitten or bird to approach her.
She thought it was better to stay away from such people.
Su Cheng: "I like black hair."
The weapons shop suddenly became quiet.
Su Cheng: “…”
Oh my god.
What she said.
Camus had just taken off his hat, revealing his beautiful dark blond curls, which were tied in a low ponytail across his neck.
He even froze for a few seconds after hearing that, as if someone had pressed the pause button.
Kai tilted his head slightly to look at her, a look of surprise on his face.
Su Cheng subconsciously turned his head and happened to meet those light golden eyes. He watched as the vertical pupils expanded into flat black balls, like a happy cat that had found dried fish.
Su Cheng: “…”
This may not be an apt metaphor.
"ha?"
Sasha also showed a strange and amusing expression, and seemed a little unhappy. "You like black hair? You mean after you slept with two blonds in a row?"
Camus glanced at him gloomily, perhaps wanting to refute the title, or simply not liking the sentence.
"But," Su Cheng said subconsciously, "I slept with a black-haired girl in Huishan Town before!"
The surroundings were dead silent again.
