Cards are born to be king

Chapter 28 The Old Watch with a Mysterious Origin

When Turan woke up with sleepy eyes and was startled by the sudden roar, he turned his head and saw the flames outside the window.In his bewilderment, he thought that the flame elf magic circle he had set up in the town to deal with the ice dragon had exploded ahead of time.

Feeling terrified in his heart, Turan, who had no time to adjust his clothes, hurried straight to the scene with his messy hair.After running all the way across the square of the town, he woke up in the cold wind and discovered the problem.The direction of the explosion is wrong, he didn't set the core of the flame elves in the north of the town.

The doubts in his heart were even worse. After fully waking up, Turan pulled his hair twice, and then suddenly stopped walking towards the explosion point.A faint pink smoke permeated the town from the north, and Turan felt dizzy after just taking a sip.

"Damn it, this is the confusion potion? No, the confusion potion can't be so pure... Could it be an enemy attack?"

Before he had time to think about it, Turan's eyes were serious, and an emerald green light flashed on his smooth forehead, and then a card shot up into the sky.Countless emerald green vines spread rapidly, and huge leaves growing on these vines were as tall as a person.Wherever those vines passed by, the pale pink smoke was absorbed.

Standing on the vine, Turan galloped towards the direction of the Adventurer's Guild.But at this moment, he saw a huge ice-blue bird soaring into the sky, and with a high-pitched cry, it extinguished the flames that filled the sky.

"Huh, it's Amos. I didn't expect even him to be alarmed."

Turan sighed, relieved a lot.By the time he arrived at the Adventurer's Union, the explosion had subsided.The situation was much better than he had imagined. Only one-fifth of the Adventurer's Guild was blown up, and the place where the duty room was located was not affected.

"Master Turan."

"Yo, you're here too."

Somewhat surprised to see Jiang Yong at the scene, Turan greeted him and noticed that the teenager was dragging the unconscious people out of the ruins.Among them were Lao Leitou, Dan Lin and several other people, but fortunately no one was injured.

"Where's Amos?"

"He's still inside."

Jiang Yong replied honestly that when he discovered the explosion, he was also terrified, for fear of hurting others.Fortunately, the place where the pharmacy was located was very remote, and these people were just fainted by the pharmacy.After the shock, Jiang Yong felt extremely wronged.Didn't you say that it's the most advanced pharmacist's room, won't it explode?

"According to your approach, no matter how advanced the laboratory is, it will be bombed."

As if he could hear his inner voice, Amos walked out of the trade union gate with a faint smile.A big ice-blue bird was parked on his shoulder. After rubbing the elf's cheek, the big bird croaked and shrank rapidly, finally turning into an ice-blue brooch.

Jiang Yongli laughed dryly twice, and turned his head with a guilty conscience.But seeing Turan looking at himself in horror, then turning his head to look at Amos, he couldn't believe it:

"Did he do all of this? This kid blew up the Adventurer's Guild?"

"Ha, I have something else I want to ask you."

Amos walked towards the two at a leisurely pace. He was obviously not tall, but everyone felt a strong deterrent.

"The ultimate pursuit of purity, huh? That's how you test other potions, huh?"

i... i'm not i don't have tat

Turan wanted to cry but had no tears.There is indeed his own pot here, he admitted it.But he really didn't expect this kid's strength to be so amazing!How old is it that you can refine medicine to open the potion room, but will you be able to pay it back in the future? !

After training Turan, Amos turned his head and found that Jiang Yong had lowered his head obediently.Looking at the brown hair, he sighed, his eyes softened after all.

"It's okay, I can't blame you for this. Even the crystal flask of Wyrmrest still can't withstand the pure liquid medicine. Your idea is very good, but the basic knowledge is too weak."

"Then...how much do you have to pay?"

Jiang Yong asked cautiously.Even if you are poor like a dog, you still have to bear the consequences for the disaster you caused.

Hearing his words, Amos smiled and took out something.

"This is refined from your pure elemental liquid. With it, it is enough to compensate for the loss of the Adventurer's Union."

Jiang Yong raised his head in disbelief, and found that Amos was pinching a small ball between his index finger and middle finger.A variety of colors are mixed together, and there seems to be a faint halo surrounding it.I didn't refine the potion, but I made a ball?No, the main thing is that this thing can compensate for its own losses?

"It's very late now, you should go back to sleep first. As for the king-level scorpion tail hook, you can give it to Turan directly after you think it through. I will send it to you after the dagger is ready."

Amos said lightly.He noticed Jiang Yong's frustrated expression and paused.

"Your idea is very interesting. Maybe you can find another way in the field of medicine in the future. Don't be afraid, because one or two failures will put you in shackles."

After a slight pause, Amos still said tactfully:

"It's just that you must be careful next time. You still need to master the foundation of refining medicine."

Immediately afterwards, he told Jiang Yong how to use and practice his mental power, but he didn't talk about more medicine refining skills.Just let him think for himself.Turan on the side looked at the two and wanted to speak several times, but Amos glared back secretly.With his encouragement, Jiang Yong, who had been depressed and doubted himself, gradually cheered up.

"Is what you said true?"

Looking at the handsome face of the elf, Jiang Yong asked anxiously.Then Jiang Yong looked at the slightly curved pale golden eyes, full of warm smiles.

"Well, believe me, you have talent. You don't have to stick to the methods summed up by the predecessors, you can try to open up your own path."

"Now go back to sleep."

"Good night."

"Good night."

Seeing Jiang Yong's gradually disappearing figure, the smile on Amos' face gradually faded.

"Okay, you can talk now, don't suffocate yourself."

Hearing his words, Turan's handsome face trembled, and he said depressedly:

"Hmph, I really don't know who your old friend is. Isn't it just a kid, really, I get goosebumps from seeing it."

Amos gave him a sideways glance, and Turan immediately corrected his expression, coughed and said:

"But this explosion is also good. At least it can confuse those people's sight, which is more conducive to our layout."

He paused, with a bit of sarcasm in his words:

"Sometimes I really don't understand the brain circuits of those people. Could it be that they can sit back and watch the town be destroyed and thousands of people die for the sake of one dragon? That is the pattern of frost, not an ordinary dragon! Those people probably have no brains, don't they? Do you really think it can be satisfied with just killing a thousand people?!"

Hearing Turan's words, Amos' expression was as cold as ice.The original smile all disappeared, and the pale golden pupils seemed to be frozen.

"In two hours, I have to leave for the capital."

He spoke suddenly, looking directly into Turan's eyes.

"The Ash Snake is also involved in this operation, you have to be careful alone."

"I pooh that big loach, who does he want to assassinate? Me? Or you? Who gave him the guts!"

Turan gasped furiously.After a long while under the plain gaze of Amos, his aura weakened, like a hedgehog retracting its sharp thorns, revealing its soft belly.Turan looked at Amos with a look of frustration and caution on his face.

"Are you really going? Can't you disobey those unreasonable demands once? It's impossible for him to really do anything to you!"

"Turan, that is my family after all."

Seeing Amos's helpless expression, Turan felt mixed feelings and really didn't know what to say.In the end, he could only sigh viciously, stepped forward to hug Amos tightly, and patted him on the back.

"Take care, I'll be waiting for you at the Gray Tower."

"And you too, my old friend."

……

Here Jiang Yong returns to the poorhouse.Thinking of blowing up the Adventurer's Guild, even with Amos' encouragement, his conscience still felt a little uneasy.All the lights in the room had been turned off, and it was pitch black. The orphans must have fallen asleep.Jiang Yong fumbled to open the door, but at this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Brother Fei Lian, you're back."

Jiang Yong, who was cold in the middle of the night, let out a white hair sweat. He turned his head tremblingly, and couldn't help comforting himself in his heart, there can't be ghosts in this different world!He lowered his head and glanced at the ground first.Sure enough, there was a small shadow reflected on the ground under the moonlight, which was not a ghost.

Jiang Yong was relieved, turned around and took a closer look, and found that it was Ambier.The boy stood alone in the snow, looking pitiful in the middle of the night.Jiang Yong snorted, touched his little face distressedly, and found that it had been frozen cold.

"Sen Nuo was called away today, and before leaving, let the other children go to bed first. I didn't sleep."

Ambier whispered, he held Jiang Yong's hem dependently, wrinkled his little nose:

"I'm going to wait for Brother Fei Lian to come back. There was an explosion just now. I'm so worried..."

Hearing the boy's words, Jiang Yong felt complicated.Since the death of his parents, no one has been waiting for him to go home for a long time.Feeling that Ambier's whole body was shivering from the cold, he quickly brought the child into the house and lit an oil lamp.Noticing that Ambier's face was blue from the cold, Jiang Yong boiled hot water for him to drink some first.

Watching Jiang Yong busy, Ambier sat obediently on the stool.Holding the porcelain cup and sipping it, he looked at Jiang Yong without blinking, with a reassuring and satisfied smile on his face.It wasn't until his whole body warmed up that Jiang Yong sent him back to the bedroom.It was too late now, long past bedtime.

However, after Jiang Yong lay in bed for a long time, he realized in despair that there were too many things to do today, his mind was in a mess and he couldn't sleep at all.He lay down for a while with his eyes open again, until Ambier beside him breathed evenly.Jiang Yong finally couldn't help sitting up, put on a cotton coat and came to the living room.

The dim oil lamp emitted a faint light like a bean. Jiang Yong was thinking about something, and suddenly reacted and touched his pocket, only to find that Goudan flew to nowhere.This little thing goes missing every night, and I don't know what to do.His fingertips touched something cold, Jiang Yong felt it out suspiciously, and found that it was the pocket watch that Uncle Yasuo gave him at the market.

There were so many things that happened that day, he simply forgot about the existence of this pocket watch, and he didn't realize it until now.The silver pocket watch looks old, but the ruby ​​on the surface still exudes a warm light.Curiously opening the pocket watch, Jiang Yong found that there was an old picture on the inside of the watch cover.

A family of three is drawn on the picture, with extremely vivid expressions and movements.A brown-haired woman smiled softly, her amber eyes looked at the baby in her arms very gently.Standing beside her was a handsome black-haired young man, he hugged the woman, his eyes were full of love, but there was a touch of gloom in his eyes.

And the baby who is sleeping soundly in the swaddle should be the tip sickle.

Seeing this picture, Jiang Yong remembered some trivial fragments in Fei Lian's memory.Those are all pieced together from various people's rumors, incomplete but bizarre.

Legend has it that Fei Lian was abandoned at the door of the poorhouse 12 years ago. The manager of the poorhouse at that time was half asleep and half awake when he heard someone knocking on the door. When he opened the door, he saw a bloody figure falling straight towards him.
