When Levi heard that Graf was going to hunt the Earth Dragon Beast, his expression changed, as if he suddenly didn't want to participate.
An adult Earth Dragon Beast is a ferocious beast of the great knight level, and is truly invulnerable to swords and spears. Although there is hope of hunting down the Earth Dragon Beast with five official knights and the military's armor-piercing giant crossbow, it is only a hope. If any accident occurs in the process, the consequence may be the loss of one's life.
Levi needs ambergris, but that doesn’t mean he can’t practice breathing techniques at all without the black snake secret medicine. The worst that can happen is that he will just have to spend several times more time.
I am only sixteen years old. Even if I break through to become a great knight before I am thirty, I will be no worse than a genius like my father.
So, there is no need to take this risk.
The so-called wealth and honor are achieved through risk, which is the same as the gambling mentality of a gambler.
Levi doesn't like gambling, he likes to do things with certainty.
There is a proficiency panel, and you can slowly master it.
Seeing Levi turning around and leaving, Graf hurriedly shouted, "Sir White Wolf, don't go. Since I dare to hunt the Earth Dragon Beast, I am naturally fully confident. I have been scouting the location of that Earth Dragon Beast for several years. Just a month ago, it fought with a great knight-level strongman of the Tuva Empire, causing itself to be seriously injured, and the great knight was also seriously injured and escaped. I spent a huge price to borrow this armor-piercing crossbow from the military, and even specially invited three official knights with extraordinary abilities like Sir White Wolf. With so many preparations, I dare not say 100%, but I am 70% sure of hunting the Earth Dragon Beast!"
"How about this, after the task is accomplished, I will give you two bottles of ambergris." Graf finally met a real archer, so naturally he didn't want to give up. Levi's archery skills were the most critical part of his hunting of the earth dragon beast.
Although this armor-piercing crossbow is extremely powerful, it requires accurate shooting, so Graf recruited knights with superb archery skills from the Shining Tavern. However, after seven days, all he got were some liars who were just filling in the numbers. He finally met a true archer like Levi, and he didn't want to wait any longer.
He was worried that if he continued to wait like this, with the Earth Dragon Beast's powerful body and self-healing ability, its injuries would have healed before he even started hunting.
Although the armor-piercing crossbow is different from ordinary bows and arrows, if one can practice ordinary bows and arrows to the level of Levi, the accuracy of using the armor-piercing crossbow will definitely be far superior to others.
As long as the armor-piercing crossbow can accurately hit the vital points of the Earth Dragon Beast, there is still hope for them, together with the five knights, to hunt down the Earth Dragon Beast. To put it bluntly, it is just a beast. How can it be compared with humans who have tools and wisdom?
Levi's steps suddenly paused, and his expression hesitated slightly.
"God, are you sure you are not lying to me? Is that earth dragon beast really injured?" Levi looked unconvinced.
"God, I, Graf, never lie." Graf swore.
In this world, because of the brainwashing of the church, people generally still believe that there are gods above their heads. Therefore, if they swear by the gods, it still has a certain degree of credibility. This is different from the belief of being struck by lightning in the previous life.
Levi's heart moved. In fact, he was not so determined to leave at the beginning. After all, when he saw the armor-piercing crossbow, he knew that his role in this operation of hunting the earth dragon beast was to shoot arrows from a distance.
Relatively speaking, it was not that dangerous. He just wanted to try to extort more money from the other party. If the other party didn't buy it, he would just leave.
Now it seems that Levi's goal has been achieved.
"Okay, then I'll make a deal. I'll only do the job I'm supposed to do. If I encounter any danger, I'll run away." Levi stated in advance.
"No problem. You just need to use the armor-piercing crossbow to shoot the Earth Dragon Beast's vital points. You don't need to participate in other things. As for the ambergris, I will allocate it to you after the task is completed. I don't have any ambergris on hand now." Graf said without any hesitation.
"Okay, when do we start?" Levi asked.
"Tomorrow afternoon, Red Spider Knight will need to prepare a highly toxic drug to apply on the arrows to ensure that we are safe." Graf said.
"Okay." Levi said, then turned and left.
"Mr. White Wolf! Let's meet at the western exit of Icewind City tomorrow and we will go to where the earth dragon beast is." After Graf said this, he watched Levi's figure disappear at the end of the street.
“Hehe, it looks like he is a disciple of a great noble who came out to gain experience. He is very careful about his life.” The Black Rhino Knight said with a sneer as he wiped his giant shield and giant sword.
"I can feel the youthful and lively aura of Lord White Wolf. Although he is wearing a mask, he should not be very old. It seems that he has been promoted to a formal knight not long ago. However, to be able to be promoted to a formal knight at this age, he should not be an ordinary minor noble. He must be the son of an earl at least. If he is the eldest son, then if I marry him, I might become a countess in the future." The Red Spider Knight stretched lazily with pride.
"Graf, you really have to give him two bottles of ambergris. You know, from the glands of an adult earth dragon beast, you can only take out about twenty bottles of ambergris. This guy is just shooting an arrow, and he doesn't need to take any big risks, but he can get two bottles. But I want four bottles. I need to confront the seriously injured earth dragon beast head-on." The Black Rhino Knight said with dissatisfaction.
"In that case, I will be responsible for luring the Earth Dragon Beast. I will be in great danger too, so I also require four bottles." said the Green Falcon Knight.
"Can you hunt the Earth Dragon Beast without me to prepare the poison? I require five bottles." Red Spider Knight sneered and said with his arms around his chest.
Graf sneered, "I just want to keep him stable. He's just a noble rookie who's training alone. How can I give him two bottles? You guys, don't ask for too much. After all, I'm the only one who knows the location of the Earth Dragon Beast, and I'm the only one who can get this armor-piercing crossbow. If you don't want to do it, you can leave. Besides the difficulty in finding archers, your duty is to do it. There are a bunch of wandering knights who want to do it in the Shining Tavern. I gave you the task because we have a good relationship. Don't let me down."
Seeing that Graf didn't fall for it, the three knights stopped talking. For wandering knights like them, making money was not easy, so they naturally didn't want to give up this opportunity easily. As long as this task was completed, they could make a lot of gold coins through ambergris.
