Chapter 547: Gervis’s Poverty (Monthly Ticket Bonus!)
The reason why Lolita's ancestor knew about the place where the Dragon Tooth Sword was nurtured was because dragons on the continent were not as rare as they are today, and dragon slayings happened frequently at that time.
And obtaining the remains of the dragon would not be as difficult as it is now.
Therefore, when Wizard Neham was making this sword, she did not hide it from her ancestors, and even proudly introduced the special features of this dragon tooth sword.
…
Looking at the platform with the magic circle set up on it, Lolita was sure that she had come to the right place. Excited, she walked briskly to a place less than two meters in front of the platform.
After getting closer, Lolita's beautiful eyes immediately looked at the pool in the center of the platform. She saw that the dragon's blood in the pool had not completely dried up, and a small section of the hilt in the middle was exposed above the water. Suddenly, her charming eyes became brighter.
Then Lolita began to move. Her slender hand suddenly moved upwards, and then a red gem the size of an egg was taken out from the space ring.
After holding the gem in her hand, Adela did not hesitate at all. She slightly turned her body and threw the gem directly onto the platform.
Swish!
When the gem flew through the air and approached the magic circle, the magic circle suddenly flashed with light, and then with a hissing sound, the egg-sized ruby instantly turned into powder and floated in the air.
"Big sister! Are you so arrogant? That gem is worth at least dozens of gold coins! You just throw it away? There are a lot of stones around your feet!"
Gervis saw everything Lolita did. He originally thought that Lolita took out the red gem in order to break the magic circle, but he didn't expect that she was just testing it.
Lolita's action made Gervis truly feel that poverty limited his imagination.
Other people would throw stones to ask for directions, but this rich woman is throwing gems to ask for directions. Comparing yourself with others will only make you angry!
He was just feeling complacent about having harvested more than twenty deep-sea pearls, but now look at others, the gap is immediately apparent.
"How can I call myself the king's man in the future?"
…
Lolita didn't know that her every move was seen by a man who was secretly worried.
She fell into deep thought after seeing what happened to Ruby.
Although the books recorded by the ancestors were very detailed, they naturally could not describe the information about the protective magic circle.
Master Nahum is not so stupid as to tell others these things that truly concern his life and property.
"It's such a headache! If only it were in my hometown, there would be no need for me to do it myself!"
Lolita frowned and thought seriously.
"Got it. After hundreds of years, the magic circle must be running out of energy. This can be seen from the fact that it just shattered the ruby I threw but did not actively attack me!"
"Then I'll let you consume more!"
Lolita thought of a solution, and her delicate brows relaxed again. She then began to take things out of the storage space.
The next scene shocked Gervis, who already felt very poor.
Lolita just thought about it, and a pile of gems half a person's height appeared in front of her.
These gems are red, blue, and green. In short, they are colorful and extremely dazzling.
But Lolita didn't look at the gems for long. She just picked up one at random and threw it onto the platform again.
Swish!
The thrown gem turned into powder as usual.
The gem had just turned into powder, but Lolita did not stop and picked up another gem and continued throwing.
Swish!
Swish!
…
As Lolita's every move showed that she was rich, a series of hissing sounds were heard in the cave, leaving Gervis, who was not far away, stunned.
"This...this...Big sister, what kind of life do you lead to be so extravagant? Even if you throw gold coins one by one, I wouldn't think it's such a waste!"
With his three views greatly impacted, Gervis wanted to jump out right now to stop the enchanting rich woman from wasting money.
But after thinking about it, it wasn't like I was going to lose my family's money, so I held back.
And he really hoped that Lolita could break the magic circle and take out the treasure inside.
Time passed minute by minute, and about half an hour later, Lolita had thrown out three piles of gems half a person's height.
While Gervis lamented the girl's squandering of money, he also had to admire her wealth. She always carried piles of jewels with her whenever she went out. Who could stand this?
And from this huge amount of gems, it can be seen that Lolita must have a lot of storage space.
Judging from Lolita's performance, this gem is just like a stone on the roadside to her.
If the space was not so large that it was inhumane, who would put the stones in the storage space? In any case, Gervis felt that he definitely would not do that.
Of course, Lolita's wasteful behavior was not without reward. At this time, the magic circle had weakened at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the inscriptions on the six stone pillars became extremely dim.
When Lolita grabbed another gem and threw it towards the platform.
Snap!
This time there was no hissing sound from before, and the beautiful gem fell on the platform without any hindrance.
"Ah! Success! Hehehe!"
The situation at this point is already very clear, this magic platform really has no energy left!
Gervis, who was not far away, was speechless when he saw this scene. It turned out that being rich and powerful has its advantages.
He also didn't expect that the magic circle that had just been so difficult for him would be defeated by the money offensive of Lolita, the wealthy woman.
…
Lolita knew that the magic circle had become ineffective due to the depletion of energy, so she stopped delaying and walked directly towards the platform without paying attention to the small pile of gems on the ground.
Soon Lolita arrived at the pool on the platform, and just as expected, there was no problem on the platform.
"Dragon Tooth Sword! You are mine! My father will be very happy!"
Lolita looked at the hilt of the sword so close to her and muttered happily. Then she took out a square towel from the storage space and carefully wrapped it around her fair palm.
This dragon tooth sword is soaked in the blood of a giant dragon. A woman like Lolita naturally doesn't want to touch such a thing.
After wrapping her palms with the scarf, Lolita couldn't wait to reach out and grab the dragon tooth sword in the pool.
clang!
But at this moment, something strange happened.
It wasn't Gervis who took action, but the dragon tooth sword in front of Lolita actually moved on its own.
The dragon tooth sword suddenly hummed, then flew out from the bottom of the pool with a clang and escaped into the air.
There are still 8 chapters to go! That's all for today! See you guys tomorrow!
