The Defeated Dragon

Chapter 40: Why Wild Corn Grows Like This

Lester had just settled the wheatworm wormgrass, and suddenly Gergill, the Wheatwood administrator, told him one thing: "Lord, I don't know if I should. ”

“Please say something.” Lister's eyes lit up, feeling that the other party might want to reveal information to his invisible dragon.

"My lord, I found three very strange strains of grass in the wasteland of Wheatwood, very tall, two or three meters tall, green and oily, and the chickens we raised loved eating its leaves. ”

“It's corn! ”

Lester immediately realized that the clue provided by the manager was not the intangible dragon, but three strands of wild corn. He immediately ordered the steward to bring himself —— the corn, the expected corn.

Just in front of the wild corn, Lester was in doubt.

“Geiger, how long have you been finding these three strains? ”

“It's been three months. ”

“Has it always been like this? ”

“Yes, My Lord. ”

Lester used to touch the red blood sword hanging from his waist.

He has kept this sword in step, ruby magic, constantly stimulating his fire properties to fight and nourish. It's like, with a sword, he practises all the time. Take more magic in the future, you can't be a Sky Knight without trying it.

Can't help but measure three strands of wild corn.

The corn in front of you is not a straight pole, with several leaves, a cluster of flowers on top of your head, and a corn stick or two in the middle. Instead, the clutter divided several poles, each with a cluster of flowers on its head, and a few tiny toothpicks in the middle where rice sticks were supposed to be.

One section of the toothpick, each section is a grass plant.

“Don't tell me the wild corn looks like this, it's not corn, it's wheat!” Lester's heart was broken deep inside, and he knew very well that three strands of wild corn were the three strands of grass in front of him.

But acceptance is not possible.

Big and full of corn sticks!

“This is basically grass for the animals... well, I remember, these three wild corn seemingly called Mexican corn grass? ”

Lester, who has grown crops in his hometown, remembers that some kind of pig grass has been grown in the village, which is grass for pigs, called Mexican corn grass, is said to be a very high-yielding pasture, and pig cattle and sheep especially love to eat it.

“It should be. If it is real corn, there is no need to bring the word 'wild' before it. The corn appears to be free of wild varieties and has been cultivated artificially for millions of years.” Once he understood this, he could only sigh in his heart and comfort himself, "at least a high-yielding pasture, no loss. ”

Clean up your frustration.

Lester re-hung the aristocratic smile: “Geiger, in my judgment, this grass, called corn grass, is a very high-yielding, livestock favorite pasture. Chicken duck goose, pig cow and sheep love to eat, and from now on, to take care of it, I need its seeds. ”

“Yes, my lord! Gegil must take care of the corn grass and keep it away from any serfs and animals! ”

“So very well, I will inform Mr. Gaultai that he will make further arrangements and you will only have to cooperate. ”

“Yes, My Lord. ”

Take another look at the Mexican corn grass, Lister takes a deep breath and lifts the whip: “Go back! ”

Wheatworms have been well settled, and peanuts, alfalfa, tulip, wheatworms have been properly settled.

The remaining thorns do not know which way to go, and the poppy fields of the poppy worms are still being planned.

Either way, elves get the best care.

……

On the way back, Lester ran into Marcus, who was about to meet him at the castle.

“Teacher Marcus, what is it? ”

“Sir, I heard Sir Gaultai say you asked him about the Invisible Dragon? ”

“Oh, you know the Invisible Dragon? ”

“Heard of it.” Seriously, Marcus, "I read from a knight novel that tore up half its name, or did I read it when I was a kid? ”

“Really? How does it describe the Invisible Dragon?” Lister knows that the wheatworm mission is complete and the reward is coming.

"In addition to gemstone dragons, metallic dragons, and elemental dragons, there is a dragon called the Holy Dragon," said Marcus. The Invisible Dragon is a kind of sacred dragon, it's transparent, no one can see it, it's everywhere, it's infinitely catastrophic. ”

“Disaster? Then why is it called Divine Dragon? ”

“Because it can produce a very special gem. ”

“A special gem, then it should be classified as a gemstone dragon. By the way, what is a special gem and what are the different powers? ”

“This gem has something to do with a legendary piece of equipment, my lord. Have you ever heard of a space ring? It's a little ring that can hold a lot of things. ”

There's also a space ring in the world?

Lester searched for his predecessor's memories, but never heard of them, and said, "No. So, is the space ring real? Or, a gem made by an intangible dragon, can you make a space ring? ”

“I don't know if a space ring exists, but if it does, it's a priceless treasure that a true nobleman can possess.” Marcus, “I read in the Knight novel, indeed, that where the Invisible Dragon goes, besides endless calamity, it leaves the stones it produces, and whoever picks them up has a space ring. ”

“And then. ”

“And then there was no more. ”

“Didn't the book say more about the Invisible Dragon? ”

“No, and I think it's just an artificial story, you know, many of the novels that inspire the glory of our knights are written by novelists with their eyes open.” Marcus came all the way here to tell Lester about it, but apparently he didn't believe the intangible dragon himself.

Lester couldn't deny it and went on to ask, "So, what about the other dragons? ”

“I don't know, that book is half missing, and I read only half of it, and it introduces an invisible dragon, a sacred dragon, alone. ”

Wait for Marcus to leave.

Liszt still doesn't understand.

Mission Reward, the message of the Invisible Dragon, what exactly does that mean?

Just tell him through the mission, the knowledge of the Invisible Dragon? Or is there an invisible dragon nearby that can be captured? Or is the Invisible Dragon coming to attack Flower Town and be prepared? Of course, it's possible. The Invisible Dragon is here to deliver equipment and a space ring?

Between thoughts, the smoke in front of your eyes reappears.

“Complete the mission and reward the message of the Invisible Dragon. ”

After a bit of distortion, the new task was released: "Mission: Wheatun's sudden appearance of wild maize caught your attention, Lord needs to think about why Wheatun grows wild maize, maybe there are more wild maize nearby, find out where the wild maize comes from. Reward: New information about the Invisible Dragon. ”

Quickly, Lester's attention was focused on new mission rewards.

“It's the information of the Invisible Dragon again, what the hell is this, how much information to tell me of the Invisible Dragon? ”
