Chapter 2 The Dragon of Deception(1/3)
In the trade zone, there are a large number of dwarf-style chambers of commerce, with shops crowded by the road.
Equipment and accessories, alchemy potions, bulk ore raw materials, etc. are available.
In addition to NPC shops, there are many players setting up stalls and trading on the wide and straight road surface.
As he walked onto the corridor, the magnificent multi-layer circular city slowly unfolded in front of him.
The Iron Crown is built inside a mountain in a crater, and the center of the city is a lava lake with extremely high heat.
From a distance, the multi-story ring city looks like a precision power machine, reflecting the beauty of structure and order. Tens of thousands of players live together with NPCs, flowing like the blood of the city.
This kind of scene shocked Li Ran every time.
This time there were a little more surprises.
More than a dozen players were lying on the railings of the corridor, looking at the lava lake with their eyes full of anticipation.
"Can this happen?"
"Impossible, it can't run!"
Li Ran held the railing and looked down and saw an extremely shocking scene.
dragon!
Black dragon!
"Look, that dragon flew up!"
Li Ran stared at the bottom of the city, a black dragon suddenly broke free from the chains, soared into the air, and soared above the lava lake.
The dragon flew higher and higher, flying straight towards the sky above the fortress.
On the circular city in all directions, the dwarf defenders poured fire on the fugitive.
Javelins and crossbows fell like storms.
The dragon dodged, circled, maneuvered continuously, and avoided most of the attacks while moving. The beautiful movements attracted the onlookers to cheer for it!
"good!"
Li Ran asked curiously: "Why is there a black dragon in the city?"
One player replied: "This black dragon is a prisoner!"
Captive? No wonder you want to escape.
Another player continued to analyze: "The black dragon is a level 7 creature that is immune to magic. The dwarf's rune magician and fire magic cannot do anything to it, but the javelin and crossbow are not vegetarians."
Sure enough, before the words were finished, the giant dragon in the air was shot by three crossbows one after another, and his physical strength gradually disappeared and he flew slowly.
The heavy injury suddenly caused it to lose balance and fall towards the city on one side.
"Run!"
Players on the corridor scattered.
Li Ran was stunned for a moment, and saw that the black dragon in front of him became bigger and bigger...
boom!
The surrounding shops were smashed to pieces by the falling black dragon. In the dust, Li Ran and the dragon passed by without any injuries.
Li Ran turned around in a daze and saw a yellow eye.
There is only one eye of the dragon, and the left eye is a huge scar.
When Li Ran saw the black dragon's scarred body, he found that almost all the crossbow arrows and javelins were nailed to the left.
"Human."
The black dragon spoke, his voice was so painful and weak: "As long as you break my chain next time, I will give you all the treasures in the Dragon Treasure House!"
Li Ran's heart was beating wildly. Is he having encountered a hidden mission?
More and more players were watching, and a dwarf sneered: "How many more people do you want to fool? After running for more than a dozen times, they failed. Every player who releases you is arrested as a rebel. No one in Crown City believes you anymore!"
"Is this a scam mission?"
Li Ran looked at the Black Dragon in surprise and then at the Dwarf.
In addition to regular tasks, players sometimes receive hidden tasks with generous rewards.
But the NPC in the Broken Star is almost the same as the real person, and it is common for players to be cheated by blank checks.
The dwarf smiled and said, "Yes, although it deceived many people, it is a tourist wonder of Crown City! It attracted many people who watched the fun."
As soon as he finished speaking, a large number of dwarf shield guards arrived at the scene and drove Li Ran and the onlookers out of the corridor.
......
Li Ran found Shanwang Auction House at the northernmost end of the trade zone.
The hot market during the server opening period has caused many products to be hyped up to sky-high prices. Even the most wealthy players or guilds have to be careful here.
Behind the counter, a dwarf trader wearing monocles greeted: "Hello sir, are you going to consign items or check auction information?"
Li Ran put the magic iron crystal on the counter: "I want to publish consignment information! The starting price is 30 gold coins, and the price is 300 gold coins at one price."
"Okay, the quality of this crystal is very high and the price is relatively reasonable. I will arrange it for you now."
The dwarf trader put the magic iron crystal into the small box and put it in.
bite!
System prompt: The item you listed on is sold at a price, and after deducting the 1% handling fee, you will receive 297 gold coins!
After gaining his first pot of gold, Li Ran immediately started shopping.
"Be pragmatic, don't think about combat profession."
Li Ran found sections related to life profession and browsed it.
Soon, his eyes were attracted by two props.

Li Ran bought two props in one go!
I bought another space ring.
At the same time, he also purchased a large number of mining magic bombs and filled the space ring.
Since you have to do one thing, do it to the extreme.
This is Li Ran's creed.
Even if everyone is not optimistic about energy and talent, what effect can it produce if it is put to its limit?
Li Ran couldn't help but feel some expectations.
......
Satisfactory, after day and night, Li Ran successfully advanced to the Grand Master mining technique!
Using the advantages of intermediate mining at the beginning and super energy recovery, we will leave mainstream players far behind.
Li Ran's mining revenue almost doubled.
In the early stages of the service opening, the value of gold coins is extremely high.
According to the current mining efficiency, minus the maintenance fee of the immersion chamber and the loss of nutrient solution, Li Ran can save 300 yuan a day by selling gold coins.
On this day, Li Ran was selling ore in Graystone Town, and heard rumors among players.
An interesting npc came to Xishan.
In the valley, there is a woman in a hood standing by the road, patiently talking to every passing player.
She is the embodiment of Sphinx.
