Chapter 3 Baptism
No one knew how much time had passed, but Roger had forgotten the time while staying in this place called a side hall but actually a cave. Lilith would bring him a large bowl of chopped silver dragon meat every day. Because the dragon corpse does not decay, the meat is always in the most delicious state, and it can be regarded as a unique delicacy when eaten. But no matter how delicious the food is, if you keep eating it, it will eventually become boring. Roger's mouth had become dry from eating dragon meat day after day.
Fortunately, he could still feel that his body was getting stronger and stronger, even stronger than before, which made him look forward to it, so he ate the dragon meat very hard even if it was tasteless.
This cave may have been a dragon's lair, for it was filled with all kinds of treasures and weapons, and looked like a glittering hill from a distance. Roger almost fainted with excitement when he first entered the cave. In the free time after eating dragon meat, Roger, apart from being teased by Lilith, spent the rest of the time simply organizing those treasures.
He threw aside the ordinary gold and silver items. These treasures, which were neither valuable nor cumbersome, were the first to be excluded from his list. Then came the ornaments that looked gorgeous but were completely useless, followed by raw materials such as the horns and teeth of certain monsters. These were of little use to Roger now.
What he wanted more were things that could be directly exchanged for gold coins, such as high-level magic crystals dropped from top-level monsters. However, not every monster could generate magic crystals, and the higher-level the monster, the harder it was to hunt. So Roger turned the hill upside down and found two top-level ninth-level magic crystals, four eighth-level magic crystals, and nine seventh-level magic crystals.
But these magic crystals were enough to make Roger ecstatic. You know, a complete ninth-level magic crystal is extremely valuable. Once it appears at an auction, it is guaranteed to attract countless nobles and businessmen. To put it simply, the money exchanged for a ninth-level magic crystal can support all the civilians in a medium-sized city to live peacefully for more than ten years.
Of course, Roger did not forget to put a few gold coins in his purse. After all, if he had to travel in the future, it would be impossible to use magic crystals to trade with others, so it would always be good to have some small change in hand.
After choosing the money, it is naturally time to choose the equipment. However, this silver dragon does not seem to have a hobby of collecting equipment, and most of the equipment collected in this cave are flashy and impractical. Roger searched for a long time before he barely found two pieces of equipment that he liked.
A two-handed heavy sword forged from unknown materials, seemingly simple and unadorned. There is also a piece of leather armor that is light to carry, ingeniously designed and very tough. It seems to be made of the skin of a red-eyed dragon python, and one can faintly feel waves of magical elements flowing on it. There are a few full body armors in the cave, which are both gorgeous and practical, but a bit heavy to wear. Roger silently ignored them based on his principle of being a swordsman as elegant as the wind.
