Game of the World Tree - Chapter 812

812. Chapter 808 Elves and Dragons

Those were two elves dressed as adventurers, but the equipment they wore was much better than the adventurers Old John had seen.

No, perhaps the word “excellent” is not appropriate. In Old John’s opinion, the equipment they wore looked more like exquisite works of art.

Shining and majestic.

Whether it was a druid in a robe or a warrior in armor, it was the same.

Damn it, he could now tell a druid from a wizard!

This was all thanks to the popular science of the druid apprentice who often came to the tavern to drink!

Looking at the gorgeous robes on the elves and the patterns on them that were unique to druids, Old John couldn’t help but complain in his heart.

Then… he couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

There was no way, these two elves were really too good-looking.

Even though they were both men, their delicate chins and skin that was softer than milk made it hard to look away.

Old John swore that those pampered noble ladies were not so tender!

However, when the elves’ eyes swept over, he lowered his head quickly, not daring to look them in the eye.

It is said that elves are powerful professionals who are born with powerful magic.

And ordinary people are always in awe of professionals.

Although Old John is just a mortal, he can still feel the powerful aura of these elves.

They are like noble creatures from another world, incompatible with the messy environment of the tavern.

Hiss… Damn, the wound hurts again.

Old John felt that the wound on his back seemed to be torn open again. He touched it with trembling hands, and his hand was covered with blood…

“Shit!”

He couldn’t help but curse in a low voice.

However, this vulgar slang was so clear in the quiet tavern that everyone focused their eyes on him, including the elves.

Feeling the sight of the elves, Old John’s face turned pale.

Professionals are high above, and to them, ordinary people without power are like weeds on the roadside.

If you offend a professional, the end is very miserable.

Even an elf!

Old John had heard that elves were not as kind as the legend said. He had heard many stories about elven adventurers from bards.

They were decisive and powerful.

Anyone who was against them would end up in a bad way!

Of course, the reputation of elven adventurers was quite polarized, with some saying good things and some saying bad things.

But no matter what, as an ordinary person, he just wanted to live in peace and stability.

Old John was trembling with fear and his throat was dry.

He wanted to apologize and explain that his words were not directed at the elves, but because of nervousness, he didn’t know how to start…

However, before he could finish his words, the elves withdrew their sight.

They didn’t seem to take him to heart.

No… Nothing?

Old John was stunned, as if he had been pardoned.

Then, he quickly shrank back into the tavern, trying to hide himself in the shadows and become a little transparent.

Of course, he couldn’t help but secretly look at these beautiful long-eared ones.

I haven’t seen them before, I’m curious.

Two elves entered the tavern and came to the bar.

Before they sat down, someone immediately gave up their seats.

Everyone is used to this kind of thing.

When facing powerful professionals, ordinary people can only be cautious to avoid mistakes.

Especially after the resurgence of magic power, almost every day you can hear about professionals killing people in some taverns. Even the city guards don’t bother to deal with such things.

Even elves don’t dare to gamble.

“Three cups of elven flower tea.”

The leading elven druid said to the bartender.

Three cups?

Old John was slightly stunned.

However, the next second, the door of the tavern was pushed open again, and this time, another elf walked in.

It was a woman.

Her appearance was better than the previous male elf, so beautiful that people couldn’t take their eyes off her at first glance. Old John even heard the inhalation in the tavern.

She frowned at first, as if she was not used to the smell in the tavern, but soon her expression became normal.

“Tingting, here, here!”

The red-haired warrior next to the elven druid waved enthusiastically and patted the seat next to him.

The female elf rolled her eyes at her, pouted in disdain, and then sat next to the elven druid.

At that moment, Old John seemed to see the smile of the elf warrior slightly stiffen.

Several elves sat down, with a strong aura.

However, after hearing the elves’ request, the bartender’s expression was a little embarrassed.

He looked at them carefully and said apologetically:

“Dear elves… This, I’m sorry, we don’t have high-end drinks like flower tea here. In the whole city of Luke, maybe only the noble bar in the inner city has it…”

The elves raised their eyebrows.

The leading druid waved his hand and said indifferently:

“It’s okay, it’s okay, bring up the best quality drinks here.”

As he said, he handed over a gold pound.

“Gold pound!”

The bartender’s eyes widened, and his expression quickly became flattering:

“Okay, elf, wait a moment! I’ll arrange it for you right away!”

After a while, three glasses of white wine in glass cups were placed in front of the elves.

Old John recognized it. It seemed to be the Erguotou collected by the owner of the tavern. It was said that it was bought at a high price from a black market merchant.

“There is this?”

The eyes of the two male elves lit up.

However, the female elf shook her head:

“I just want to drink juice, please change it to juice.”

“Okay…Okay!”

The bartender stuttered as he glanced at the beautiful female elf, replaced the white wine with a glass of freshly squeezed juice.

The three elves nodded with satisfaction and began to drink.

Gradually, the tavern became noisy again. The bard began to play music again, the adventurers continued to play Gwent, and the idlers and drunkards continued to play Gobang.

However, the sound was much quieter than before. If you look closely, you will find that almost everyone is secretly observing the three elves.

The three elves talked to the bartender while drinking wine and juice.

“Sir, we are adventurers from the Elf Forest. You can call me Li Mu. Is there any interesting news around here recently?”

The Elf Druid asked with a smile.

His smile was very kind, and people couldn’t help but feel good about it.

As he said that, he took out another gold pound and put it in front of the bartender.

Gold… gold pound!

Another one!

Old John’s eyes widened with envy.

One gold pound is one hundred silver coins, which is equivalent to his income for three or four months!

The bartender was flattered.

He glanced at the gold pound, then at the smiling elf, quickly put the gold pound away, and then said flatteringly and enthusiastically:

“Master Elf, you are right to ask me! I know this best!”

“As for the recent… a few days ago, there was another beast tide on the northern ice field, and they also attacked the border town. I heard that many people died.” “

Also… the lord signed an alliance with the Marquis of Weimar a few days ago, and he might take action against the Earl of Mis in the south.”

“It is said that a new magic stone vein was discovered in the western territory, and it seems that magic crystals have been mined…”

The bartender said excitedly, and several elves listened attentively.

“We have heard of all this. Is there anything else besides these?”

The elf warrior asked.

The bartender scratched his head and thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up:

“Oh, I forgot to mention it! It is said that a giant dragon came to the mine outside the city!”

“Giant dragon? What dragon?”

The three elves instantly became interested.

Noticing their expressions, the bartender quickly exaggeratedly gestured:

“A very big dragon! It is said that it destroyed the entire mine!”

As he said that, he pointed at Old John who was hiding on the side:

“Old John saw it with his own eyes! He was originally mining in the mine!”

Old John was suddenly called by the bartender,

and he was startled. The three elves turned their eyes to him in unison, and his heartbeat almost stopped.

“Master… Elf…”

Old John stuttered.

Although these elves seemed to be quite gentle, he couldn’t help but feel nervous when facing them.

“Did you see a dragon? What kind of dragon did it look like?”

The red-haired elf warrior asked curiously.

Then, as if noticing the blood on his body, he raised his eyebrows slightly:

“Are you injured? Was it done by the dragon?”

Facing the other party’s gaze, Old John became more nervous.

However, before he could say anything, the red-haired elf suddenly chanted an obscure spell.

Golden light bloomed on his body, and countless light golden photons appeared in his hands. Then, the photons flew towards Old John, and entered his body in his horrified sight.

However, the moment the photons entered, Old John’s fear turned into astonishment.

He only felt a warm force flowing through his body, and the burning pain gradually disappeared.

When he lifted his clothes and looked, he was shocked to find that the hideous scars had disappeared.

Not only that, he felt like he was reborn, and his whole body seemed to be full of strength in an instant!

It was as if he had suddenly become a dozen years younger.

“Life magic! He is a life priest!”

The exclamation of the adventurer came from the tavern.

Life magic? Life priest?

Old John was slightly stunned.

Then, he finally realized what had happened, and quickly bowed to the red-haired elf, his voice choking:

“Thank you! Thank you, Master Elf! Thank you… Thank you for your treatment…”

It was able to instantly heal his injuries, and even all his old illnesses were cured at the same time. This was definitely not a primary healing spell!

No…

The intermediate healing spells of the Eternal Church could not be so powerful!

He had seen priests use it on patients before, and the effect was definitely not as magical as it is now!

Facing Old John’s excited eyes, the elf laughed and waved his hands:

“Nothing, a small matter, a small matter… Just tell us what you know!”

But soon, he frowned again:

“Good fellow… One treatment consumed so much of my magic power… How much damage did you suffer? Eh… No, there is still remnant of violent magic power in your body… It is because the purification of these magic powers consumed too much magic power…”

“Tsk, mining… What kind of mine did you mine? When did you start? What about the dragon?”

Hearing the elf’s question, Old John sighed and said:

“My Lord Elf, it is a gold mine outside the city. It has been many years. I fled from the south last year. At that time, they were recruiting miners. In order to make a living, I signed up.”

“Gold mine? One year? You tossed your body like this in one year? Are you mining or writing online novels?”

The elf warrior looked surprised.

“Novel?”

Old John was stunned.

“Uh… Nothing, just a gold mine?”

The elf changed the subject and asked again.

“It used to be. The gold mine in Luke City was still very famous in the empire, but… last year, someone dug up a vein of magic stone under the gold mine.”

Old John thought for a moment and answered.

“What about the dragon?”

The elf asked again, seeming to be quite curious.

“The dragon suddenly appeared in the mine a few days ago. It occupied the mine, drove away all the miners, and didn’t let us get close.”

Old John continued.

“Did it drive away all the miners?”

The elf warrior was slightly stunned.

“Strange… According to what I know, shouldn’t they keep the miners to help them dig gold?”

The female elf looked puzzled.

The elven druid pondered for a few seconds, and asked with a slight movement in his heart:

“What does the dragon you have seen look like?”

“This… it… it’s too big, I didn’t see it clearly, everyone said it was a dragon, I think… it should be a dragon, huge in size, with scales and wings, exactly the same as the dragon described by the bard.”

Old John shook his head.

“What about the color?”

the elf asked again.

Old John hesitated for a moment and said:

“It seems… it seems to be golden… just like the color of gold…”

“Gold… golden dragon?”

Several elves looked at each other and saw surprise in each other’s eyes.

“Golden dragon? Hey, it’s interesting… I think I guessed what’s going on…”

The elf warrior touched his chin.

As he said that, he looked Old John up and down again:

“So… the wound on your body was not caused by the dragon?”

Old John nodded:

“No…”

As he said that, he sighed again and gritted his teeth and said:

“It was those damn nobles! After losing the mine, they took their anger out on us… They didn’t even pay us!”

“Nobles…”

After hearing his words, the elves sighed faintly.

“Hey, the nobles here are all the same. In their eyes, commoners are not even as good as their dogs.”

The elf warrior sneered and shook his head.

After that, he looked at his companions again:

“Brother Mu, Dou Dou, how about it? Do you want to go to the mine? Anyway, there is still some time before the mission deadline to visit Dragon Island, so call Miaomiao and Fengjie and the others. Hmm… maybe they know about this now.”

After hearing his words, the other two elves looked at each other and nodded.

They had been enjoying the adventure while doing the limited missions along the way.

Seeing that his companions agreed, the elf warrior was even happier. He turned around and looked at Old John again, laughing:

“Um… what is this gentleman’s name?”

“Merciful Elf Lord… you… you can just call me Old John, everyone calls me that…”

Old John replied in fear.

“Well, Old John, can you take us to the mine? As a reward, I can give you a gold pound.”

The elf warrior said happily, and took out a shiny gold pound from his pocket.

The inspiration failed… No, I can’t do this, I have to find a way to stand up…
