Chapter 126: 069 Ancient Ruin -2 (Part Two)

Things like this happened pretty often in fantasy novels, didn’t it? Huet devoured by the creature or end up as spit-roasted luons there Iin…”

When Hans lanced at Damon for confirmation

“It’s as he says, on in our current era It’s just that various scales and bones of the dead dragons have been discovered, and those tell us that some must be still alive somewhere”

Hans frantically nodded when Daon’s scale to on inside the ancient ruin However, he alsoand fatally injuring the dragon beforehis escape from the ruin,” Hans spoke with a face filled with confidence “But such a thing is utterly impossible, sir Just how on alone? Honestly, he probably got his hands on the scale froon or some such”

I conte at Hans To be honest, I was getting rather suspicious of Hans’s tale

So I asked him “If that’s true, why did that man tell you all about this treasure trove in the first place?”

“It’s because I helped him out, you see More correctly, I’m actually his life’s saviour!”

“His life’s… saviour?”

Hans nodded ani one of his travels, he ran into ain thethere out of exhaustion after wandering around in the desert for too long Apparently, Hans gave soratitude, the on scale at a dirt-cheap price

“Of course, that dirt-cheap price still took all of s thus far,” Hans quipped at the end

“Even then, wasn’t that too easy? I ht?”

“According to hi fa to leave Aslan soon and therefore, he does not have enough ti with the scale and the words of gratitude, the man then told Hans of the location to the ancient ruin

-It’s really dangerous there, so I advise you to drop all thoughts of going there yourself As a matter of fact, I advise you to just sell this inforood price andwords of the on’s lair, wasn’t it?

Advising Hans to simply sell the information on a treasure trove to someone else – now that was one hell of a crazy notion

Hans decided to take the gamble since he had already squandered away his fortune anyways He sold off a portion of his re wares and hired theto the man, there is drinkable water and food in that location I thought that there shouldn’t be any real dragons in that place, and even if so in there, they shouldn’t be any erous than some Goblins or Orcs In that case, on to worry about, eh?

I glanced at Da for ht tag along witha potentially safe home for the slaves around the corner, it didn’t see I’ve just heard

“A-and, weren’t you planning to stop by at a nearby settlement? If you wish to head to the ancient ruin, then it lies in the direction of a town, sir Actually, it should be closer than reaching another city from this place”

It was a teek trip from our current location to the city Hans came from, but ould only need a week if we headed to the nearest village via this ancient ruin, according to hi at Hans

“H-how about it? Aren’t you at least a little te at this guy’s ht

Left with little choice, we ended up heading northwest froe in that direction, one that was the closest to our current location, and we could potentially procure extra drinking water and some food on our way there, so I had no choice but to trust the words of this flaky ed forward for a few days, and sure enough, we did discover a huge pyra sand

“It, it’s really here?!”

Even the uided us here, Hans, seemed to be shocked beyond words The mercenaries also looked rather excited as well

They all thought this trip would be in vain, yet they had really discovered an ancient ruin

The ruin was half-buried in the sand blown around by all the desert winds I couldn’t help but say so at this structure, “Well, it wasn’t a total lie, at least”

Hans quickly responded to me “I do not kno to lie, sir”

“…Oh, so you were planning to truthfully run your mouth off that you saw me out here, then?”

He promptly clanored him for now and took a look around us

There didn’t seem to be any water or food in this place I couldn’t help but feel that asted our ti here Could the slaves really live in such a location?

I shi+fted aze over to Damon “What do you think?”

Since we caht it’d be better to listen to the opinion of a man as basically in the saees

Da his head He seemed to be quite satisfied by what he saw “It’s wonderful, my lord No one should be able to locate this place”
