Now that he was still alive, he could be considered to have hit the jackpot.
'Kempes, you idiot, you really are hopelessly stupid. You can't blame others for courting death.
'Deloy, that old fox, you really think I don't know what you're thinking? If you have the ability to collect the Ancient Poison Dragon, then go ahead and collect it. That would be considered your skill.'
Hearing Lin Yun 'sneer, Deloy couldn't help blushing. He naturally knew what Kempes was thinking, but he didn't stop him, which could be considered as tacit approval. Who would have thought that such a serious situation would occur?
Now, looking at the Ancient Poison Dragon calmly lying in the hole, and then at the crippled Kempes on the ground, Deloy had a complicated expression.
According to the previous agreement, whoever found it would get it. Mafa Merlin found this Ancient Poison Dragon's corpse, so it naturally belonged to Mafa Merlin.
But this was the corpse of an Ancient Poison Dragon!
The Ancient Poison Dragon had been extinct since the Era of Gods, an existence even more ancient than the Chromatic Dragons. Now, the Chromatic Dragons had already become legends. Who could let an Ancient Poison Dragon's corpse slip away in front of their eyes?
'Logically speaking, if we help gather and finish the rest of the work, Mafa Merlin giving us 10% would be considered a lot, and giving us a few scales would be a huge bargain for us. There would be no problem with him monopolizing it.
'But this is the corpse of an Ancient Poison Dragon, how could we let it go?
'This is something of huge benefit to the Gaugass Battlemages. A few scales could increase the overall fighting strength of the Gaugass Battlemages. If used on the peak of the Heaven Rank, 9th Rank Arch-Battlemages would be invincible.
'No opponent's shield can stop our Lightning Spears. If the Lightning Spears were completely made of claws or scales, even a Heaven Rank's shield might be pierced.
'Cutting off some of its flesh would greatly increase the physique of the entire race. They wouldn't need poison resistance to walk freely in the Poison Mist Valley.
'If we're lucky and obtain a wisp of the Ancient Poison Dragon's bloodline, the Gaugass Battlemages might have another trump card.
This is something our Gaugass absolutely can't let go. We can't monopolize it, but we have to get a share.
If worst comes to worst, we'll just let H.e. Mafa Merlin take a bit more. As long as he helps detoxify the poison, there's no need for him to do anything else. Our Gaugass Battlemages will do everything. The processing of the materials, as well as the supplementary materials, will all be provided by us.
When the time came, he would let H.e. Mafa Merlin choose first. It would not be a problem for him to choose the best part.
This was already a great show of sincerity. He did not have to do anything, and he could directly enjoy the fruits of his labor. He believed that H.e. Mafa Merlin would not refuse.
After all, there is an Ancient Poison Dragon's corpse here. Now that we know about it, it is impossible for him to monopolize it. He must take out a part of it to seal our mouths.
Most of Okland's mage forces were gathered in the Storm Fort, and if those greedy Okland mages learned about it, they would definitely do everything in their power to get a share.
'At that time, H.e. Mafa Merlin might not be able to get anything, and he might even offend all of Okland's mage forces.
'I'm sure he understands this. If he doesn't want to leak this information, he can only share it with our Gaugass Battlemages. I'm making such a big concession, so he only needs to share a bit to get the fruit. A smart person would definitely know how to choose.
'The benefits here are too shocking. For the sake of our race, I can only let down H.e. Mafa Merlin …'
A trace of guilt flashed in Deloy's eyes. The benefits of this Ancient Poison Dragon's corpse were too great. For the sake of the Gaugass Battlemages, he could only ignore his conscience and take a share.
Facing Lin Yun 'sneer, Deloy thickened his face and acted as if he hadn't seen it. He didn't even care about the seriously injured Kempes and just stood at the edge of the hole, looking as if he wouldn't leave.
How could Lin Yun not know what Deloy was thinking?
'Hmpf, damned old fox, you made a mistake this time. Since you want to stay here, then stay here …'
Lin Yun sneered and indifferently said to Deloy, "Prophet Deloy, you can continue.
I still have something to do, so I'll be leaving first. "
After saying that, Lin Yun led his people to leave.
Deloy was stunned as he foolishly looked at Lin Yun's back, unable to react to the situation.
'What's going on? What do you mean by leaving first?
'This is the corpse of an Ancient Poison Dragon! Something so precious that can't even be found in the Nesser Dynasty, yet you're saying that you're leaving first?
'What the fuck are you thinking?
'You can leave, but you can't leave now! You have to deal with the Ancient Poison Dragon's poison first …'
'This is an Ancient Poison Dragon! Even if it's only a corpse, it's still covered in terrifying toxins. Let alone Gaugass Battlemages, let alone Okland, in all of Noscent, no one would be able to detoxify the Ancient Poison Dragon's poison.
'Our only hope is on you, yet you're saying that you're leaving first? 'What are you doing?
'This Poison Mist Valley was formed because of the Ancient Poison Dragon's corpse. You can make a poison resistance potion to resist the poisonmist, so can't you make something to resist the Ancient Poison Dragon's poison?
'You're our only hope, no one else can do it. Only you have the chance to make a potion to resist the Ancient Poison Dragon's poison, yet you're leaving first …'
'Leaving first …'
Hearing this, Deloy felt as if his brain was about to explode. His mind was filled with thoughts of leaving first … Leaving first …
Mafa Merlin didn't understand. Who could detoxify the poison here? That guy was the only hope, so how could he leave first?
Ancient Poison Dragons had already gone extinct during the God Era, so who could detoxify them?
During the early days of the Nesser Dynasty, some Pureblood Elves and Chromatic Dragons might have had this ability, but now?
So many years had passed, and even if the method had been passed down, it would have already been thrown to who knows where.
Low-level alchemists shouldn't even think about coming into contact with this kind of thing. High-level alchemists' time was very precious. No alchemist would waste their precious time on this kind of thing that hadn't been used for thousands of years.
Otherwise, the Poison Mist Valley wouldn't have been abandoned for so many years without anyone exploring it.
Okland's mages researched for so many years, but they couldn't even detoxify the poisonmist of the Poison Mist Valley. In those days, two Artisans came here and were helpless.
'This Mafa Merlin is leaving first … Is he out of his mind?
If he leaves, there will be a huge problem … '
Suddenly, Deloy's eyes shone.
'Damn, does that Mafa Merlin not know that this is the corpse of an Ancient Poison Dragon?
If he doesn't know, then ask me! I'll be happy to explain it to you!
'If you don't want to ask, then don't leave! I'll take the initiative to explain it to you! I'll explain all the characteristics of an Ancient Poison Dragon, all the precious parts!
'Those arrogant and stupid mages of Okland don't have these records, but we Gaugass Battlemages do!
The Ancient Poison Dragon's scales, claws, and flesh were all extinct treasures. Every part of its body was a treasure. If you don't understand, then let me tell you!
Deloy anxiously stamped his feet. While he was distracted, Lin Yun had already led his people away. Moreover, he was very fast, disappearing in the distance in an instant. By the time he reacted, they had already disappeared.
Deloy wished he could catch up to Lin Yun and pull Lin Yun over to forcibly tell him that this was the corpse of an Ancient Poison Dragon and how precious it was. He actually dared to say something as insane as "leaving first".
But Deloy had been too shocked. He hadn't expected Lin Yun's actions, and by the time he reacted, he couldn't stay.
As for Lin Yun, after leaving the hole, he turned around and sneered.
'Those greedy guys, I know what that old fox is thinking. But from the start, I never planned on sharing this Ancient Poison Dragon's corpse with these Gaugass Battlemages.
'Since you want to share, then I'll leave. You can go collect it yourselves. If you can collect it all, it'll be your skill, I'll admit defeat.
'Hmpf, if there's someone among the Gaugass Battlemages that can detoxify the Ancient Poison Dragon's poison, then I'll admit that I'm unlucky.
'But someone who can detoxify the Ancient Poison Dragon's poison hasn't been born in this era.
Three millennia later, someone discovered the corpse of the first Ancient Poison Dragon of this era. No, it was just a remnant of its body.
But more than half of the poison in that remnant body had already evaporated, and only a little bit of it remained. This made the people of this era impatiently wait a millennium to collect it.
They could only wait until the poison completely evaporated before they could collect it. But once the poison completely evaporated, the value of that remnant body plummeted by a few levels.
Because of that remnant body, a dozen major mage forces started a war, resulting in countless casualties. In the end, the Black Tower that obtained the remnant body discovered that it was poisonous meat that could only be seen but not eaten.
They were laughed at for no less than a millennium before the poison completely evaporated.
After another eight millennia, Noscent had already entered its peak. At that time, the corpse of an Ancient Poison Dragon was found in a highly toxic plane. At that time, a peak Saint Alchemist spent a dozen years to find a way to detoxify it.
Although the Poison Mist Valley's Ancient Poison Dragon's corpse couldn't compare to the Ancient Poison Dragon that had polluted an entire plane, it was still much more powerful than the Ancient Poison Dragon's corpse that only had a portion of its body remaining.
In this era, apart from himself, no one could detoxify the Ancient Poison Dragon's poison.
