452 Polios Request for Help (1/2)
Dragonborn was captured by the Wyvern. To be precise, he was riding on the Wyvern's back.
His name was fitting for his current situation.
The gamers were agitated when they saw Dragonborn being whisked off by the Wyvern and immediately uploaded the video to the discussion forum.
They thought Dragonborn would appear and write about his Wyvern-riding experience. The gamers waited for a long time, but Dragonborn didn't create any posts in the discussion forum.
Dragonborn wouldn't go offline. It wasn't easy to get the chance to travel together with the Wyvern. If he were to go offline, his opportunity might be gone.
”Is that how a Hidden Mission is triggered by the Wyvern's Plot? Dragonborn is awesome!”
”I feel that we're the stepping stones for Dragonborn. I was burnt alive right after the mission commenced. That's too much for me.”
”You're all bad. You attempted capturing the Wyvern without telling us. If we knew about it, we would have suggested that you hook yourselves to the Wyvern's body, just like Dragonborn.”
”Is Dragonborn the rider of the Wyvern? He could have some awesome achievements.”
”It's hilarious. Where did this awesome gamer come from?”
The gamers enthusiastically discussed Dragonborn's experience with the Wyvern on the discussion forum.
Most of the discussions involved gamers of Victoria City. The gamers of Eternal Kingdom weren't interested, as they were busy rebuilding the Gundam.
…
In the Dungeon Lord Main Hall of Eternal Kingdom.
A black kitten was sprawled lazily in his own dwelling. Above him was a parrot who was pacing around.
Eggface was sitting in front of the computer, typing furiously on the keyboard. He was working and chatting with the gamers who were queuing up online to chat with him. He would help provide solutions for the problems faced by the gamers or record their feedback on the game. He would then reflect his findings to Sherlock during his free time.
Eggface seldom encountered gamers who were asking for help in solving their game-related problems. Most of them wanted to chat with Eggface, whom they thought was a lady Black Dragon.
”I'm getting restless. Can we have something like the battle at Specter College?”
The parrot paced restlessly on the cabinet.
”It has only been around ten days since our last battle. What are you thinking about, meow?” Polio said as he looked at the parrot.
”I feel that Lord Sherlock has the charisma of Michelangelo. Why don't we coax Lord Sherlock into attacking Winterfell? If we can occupy it as our Stronghold, it will be a good start for our world conquest,” the parrot said excitedly.
However, Polio disagreed, saying, ”Perhaps you were locked up for too long. You don't understand the current times, meow. Do you know about Magic Cannons? It's a Magic Weapon that can blow half a mountain to bits with a single shot. Even if Lord Sherlock were to take a direct hit, it wouldn't be pretty, meow. Let's not even bring up the Gundam.”
The parrot scoffed at Polio and said, ”So what? Lord Sherlock is powerful, but he's still far from Michelangelo at his prime. I feel that Lord Sherlock is an interesting Devil. If he's willing to conquer the world, he might just succeed.”
The parrot and Polio were solemnly discussing whether Lord Sherlock would conquer the world. Eggface, who was working on his computer, said, ”What are you talking about? Conquering the world? Impossible.”
Eggface shook his head without hesitation as he said, ”Because only I, the King of Darkness, Master of the Mystical Flames, Hades Ruler, can conquer the world…”
Footsteps were heard outside the Dungeon Lord Main Hall, and someone opened the door handle.
”Lord Sherlock. Besides Lord Sherlock, I won't support any other creature who is conquering the world,” said the bragging Eggface, suddenly changing his tune.
The door was opened, but Lord Sherlock didn't walk in. Instead, it was Brainiac who carried the tortoise.
The tortoise was the commander of the Ancient Gods army, Frangipani, who created a big mess in Specter College ten days ago.
Specter College suffered great losses due to Frangipani. Besides the one-tenth of the students who lost their bodies, even the principal of Specter College perished.
The students who lost their bodies could revive using their soul boxes, but it was different for the principal. He was deemed guilty of reviving Frangipani by the Specter Committee and sentenced to death. His execution occurred a day before.
His bones were burnt to ashes, and his soul box was destroyed.
It was tragic. With his execution, Professor Bacon became the new principal of Specter College.
Based on their cordial relationship, Sherlock and Specter College signed a new agreement.
The new agreement included the gamers of Victoria City as the combatants for the graduation examinations. The last principal wasn't happy with the participation of Humans, Elves, and Fairies, but Professor Bacon signed the agreement without much consideration.
Before long, the gamers of Victoria City could challenge the Instance Dungeon of Specter College.
Brainiac walked in and put the tortoise in the new glass tank bought by Sherlock.
The water in the glass tank wasn't a special liquid but common underground water. Sherlock found that even if he helped to treat the injuries of the tortoise, he would go against Sherlock, doing things like knocking his head against the glass tank.
Though a glass tank didn't cost much, Sherlock still felt the pain. The tortoise didn't have money, and Sherlock couldn't sell him for money.
Brainiac left after placing the tortoise in the glass tank.
”Let's see who's back.”
The parrot flew down to the side of the glass tank and gazed at the tortoise Frangipani as he teased.
Eggface and Polio walked to the tank and looked at the tortoise. They were curious about what kind of punishment Frangipani received.
Besides feeling mentally exhausted, Frangipani's body seemed intact.
”Didn't you die? I thought Lord Sherlock would kill you, meow,” Polio said as he tapped on the glass tank.
The tortoise was in the glass tank, looking at the three animals outside. He became fierce and looked as if he was constipated.
”Are you thinking of breaking Lord Sherlock's Rune Mana?” the parrot asked as he observed the tortoise's expression.
After hearing the parrot, Polio said, ”It looks like it, meow! It looks like the other time. It's the same expression, meow.”
Polio was referring to the parrot by the side.
To Frangipani, these insolent creatures were laughing at him, but he wasn't bothered by them.
It was only a common failure. Though Brainiac's experiments were frightening, they weren't able to daunt him.
