"I have my own pride when it comes to business. Even though I'll exaggerate and deceive customers, what I hate most is selling fake goods. If they say there are some monster eggs whose species cannot be identified, then there must be..."
"But a monster egg whose species can't be identified isn't necessarily a top-grade monster, right? If there's no grand prize in your Easter egg lottery area, what kind of lottery is it?"
"Yes, there are big prizes, there might be a wyvern egg inside!"
The slave trader's face showed pain as he spoke.
But in fact, even the most experienced monster egg appraiser in their shop could not confirm whether it was a wyvern egg.
It can only be said to be suspected, with a 30% probability.
This thing is just like gambling on stones. If the boss is not sure about the result, he dare not sell it himself and just sells it directly to transfer the risk to the customer.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be willing to put it in the Easter egg lottery area as a gimmick.
"Oh, and wyvern eggs?"
Chen Ming was a little confused, because he had identified all the monster eggs in the Easter egg lottery area, and there was no wyvern species - but this did not mean that the slave trader was lying, because the wyvern might be a male, so the identification function of the pleasure system could not identify it.
"Yes, because it's quite popular...even guests from the aristocracy come to challenge it."
The slave trader's occupational disease struck again, and he began to sell: "Would you like to try it? If you win a wyvern egg, it will be worth 1000 gold coins."
However, Chen Ming was not tempted at all.
Let's not talk about the fact that the system's identification function couldn't find out which one was the Wyvern.
Even if you find it,
A mere flying dragon had no appeal to Chen Ming at all - after all, he had even killed a red dragon alone, so how could he possibly be interested in a sub-dragon species.
Even though the wyvern is the strongest among the sub-dragons, it is still far inferior to the true dragon species.
However, although Chen Ming was not interested in the wyvern, he was still somewhat interested in the silver dragon egg.
Not only because the silver dragon is a real dragon, but also because she is a female dragon!
Chen Ming has conquered so many beautiful girls, but he has never been a dragon knight!
Since it is impossible to be a dragon knight in The Return of the Condor Heroes, it is also good to be a dragon knight in another world.
Thinking of this, Chen Ming pretended to be interested in the wyvern and said, "What's the probability of winning the jackpot? I just want to know the probability of winning a wyvern egg."
"There are a total of 100 Warcraft eggs in the Easter egg lottery area for guests to play the lottery game. In addition, there are 2,000 eggs in stock, and the biggest prize is a Wyvern egg... Of course, the chances of hatching a Cuckoo or Sword Turtle are slightly higher, so please be mentally prepared before entering the lottery!"
A one in two thousand one hundred probability?
The probability is very subtle.
Even if a customer buys all the boxes, but fails to hatch a wyvern,
The slave trader can also temporarily purchase a wyvern egg, saying that he missed one before.
The result is just a little less profit, but still a huge profit - at least higher than the profit from directly selling Warcraft eggs of Cuckoo and Sword Turtle.
"It's a sure-win business... Okay, I'll buy one and try my luck."
As he spoke, Chen Ming threw a gold coin to the slave trader, and then decisively picked up the silver dragon egg.
After the deal was done, he was no longer afraid of the slave traders raising the price.
Because he has the ability to protect his own interests - to be honest, with his current strength, it is already very kind of him not to buy it directly for free. If the slave trader dares to go back on his word, he can rob everything here in the name of self-defense.
The slave trader accepted the gold coins and reminded him with a smile, "If you win the prize, I hope you can come and participate in our store's promotional activities. There will be generous rewards..."
"Given your chances of winning, forget it!"
"If you buy 10 at a time, you can choose an extra monster egg, increasing your chances of winning..."
The slave traders naturally continued to sell.
"no need!"
Chen Ming waved his hand to interrupt the other party's sales pitch and left the store with Luo Qixi and Jin Bisha...
Chapter 159: The blood-recovering effect of the return of the big kidney
Watching Chen Ming and the other two leave,
One of the slave trader's men approached him and whispered, "Boss, those two women..."
"Shh!"
The slave trader raised a finger and continued, "Keep your eyes open from now on. That man is a renowned dragon slayer, space controller, and sky ruler in the Adventurer's Guild... the future god-level magician [Infinity]!"
It turned out that the slave trader had already recognized Chen Ming's identity, so he had always maintained a respectful attitude towards him.
Otherwise, even when facing ordinary lower-ranking nobles, his attitude would not be so respectful.
……
After leaving this shop, Chen Ming went to several other shops selling slaves to compare prices.
In the end, I found that they were all the same. Although there was no shortage of beautiful slaves, their purity was not good enough.
So the three of them left the slave market.
After a shopping date in the commercial district and having lunch.
Chen Ming is ready to go home and hatch the silver dragon egg.
Some might ask: "Hey, buddy, with your current growth rate, why are you still using a pet? What's the point of buying one? Just to be cute?" Besides, a dragon only significantly increases its power after sleeping for dozens or even hundreds of years. At this rate, you'd be a god in a hundred years...
Actually, my friends have misunderstood. Chen Ming just wants to be a dragon knight to enrich the racial categories of the harem girls and experience the taste of girls of different races...
Originally, he didn't know how to hatch Warcraft eggs. This was a completely new area for him.
Fortunately, the knowledgeable Luo Qixi knew something about this.
This senior sister, who always has a calm temperament, thought about it for a while and then came up with a direction.
"The library at the Magic University may hold the answer," she said in a gentle but confident voice. "It has the most detailed records on magical beasts, especially dragons."
Without a moment's delay, Luo Qixi led Chen Ming and Jin Bisha through the arcades of Lanoa Magic University, which were full of traces of time. The towering bookshelves in the library were like silent giants, and the air was filled with the mixed scent of parchment, magic ink, and ancient wood.
Luo Qixi had a clear goal. She quickly pulled out a book with a mithril-patterned cover from a bookshelf marked "Rare Creatures Breeding: Dragon Volume" which was a bit too thick. The book was called "The First Birth of Dragonborn: A Complete Chronicle of Ancient Hatching and Contracting Methods".
Carrying this heavy hope, the three returned to Chen Ming's house, which was not luxurious but spacious and comfortable enough.
In the study, the flames from the fireplace flickered, illuminating Chen Ming's focused and slightly nervous face.
He carefully opened the ancient book. On the yellowed pages, complex cursive characters and delicate magic diagrams explained in detail the core of dragon egg hatching: blood connection and magic power supply.
The most core and original method is to use the blood containing the essence of the master's life as a guide, supplemented by powerful magic catalysis, and draw the ancient symbiotic contract array on the eggshell.
Every step requires precision and contains a sense of ritual that cannot be violated.
Finally, just input magic power into it continuously.
For Warcraft eggs, the hatching process is actually the process of absorbing magic power.
Blood drops and magic circles are just additional steps developed by humans to make magical pets recognize their masters.
However, the more powerful the monster, the more magic power is needed to hatch it. The key is that it cannot be intermittent, but must be injected with magic power continuously.
As the most powerful magical beast, the amount of magic power required to hatch a dragon is naturally terrifyingly large - because a dragon's magic power is generally far greater than that of humans, hatching dragon eggs is a chore for a dragon.
So for humans, it is as difficult as hell.
Of course, inputting magic power was not difficult for Chen Ming, as he had so much magic power that he could hardly use it all up.
What really made him feel embarrassed was the previous step.
"You need to use my blood to draw the symbiotic contract array..."
Chen Ming muttered to himself, his fingertips sliding across the intricate and mysterious lines of the formation on the pages.
How much blood does this cost?
He took a deep breath, suppressed the instinctive resistance in his heart, and turned his gaze to Luo Qixi, asking, "Sister Luo Qixi, the book says that the casting process requires powerful healing magic to follow closely to ensure that the caster is not seriously injured. This... I can only ask you for help."
His voice was steady, but his eyes revealed uneasiness - it was a bit embarrassing to say that he had never experienced a bloody battle, so he was afraid of pain!
Loki nodded solemnly. Without saying anything more, she began to concentrate and mobilize the pure magic power in her body.
"Holy power is sweet food. Grant those who have lost their strength the power to stand up again—'Healing'!"
A faint blue light gathered and flowed at her fingertips, and a powerful healing magic spell was silently brewing in her heart, ready to be unleashed.
Jin Bisha, who couldn't do magic, saw that she couldn't help, and looked at Chen Ming with some self-blame and worry...
The study was so quiet that the only sounds were the crackling of the burning wood in the fireplace and everyone's deliberately slowed breathing.
Chen Ming confirmed every detail of the magic circle for the last time and imprinted them firmly in his mind.
Then he picked up an extremely sharp silver knife on the table that was used to open letters. The touch of the cold metal made his fingertips tremble slightly.
His eyes moved back and forth between the silver dragon egg and the index finger of his left hand several times. Chen Ming gritted his teeth and hardened his heart to cut his finger with a knife.
The moment the blade passed through the fingertips, a sharp pain that pierced the heart rushed straight to the brain!
He couldn't help but gasp, his brows were tightly locked, and fine beads of cold sweat instantly seeped out of his forehead.
This was the first time Chen Ming was injured. He had been too steady and cautious in the past and had almost no chance of falling into danger.
So the first time I got injured was by myself, and it was also the first time I felt pain!
Bright red blood beads immediately gushed out from the narrow wound. At first, they condensed slowly, and then connected into a line, like a string of red agate beads with a broken string, dripping and falling accurately on the top of the silver dragon egg below.
A strange thing happened. The eggshell, which seemed as smooth as a mirror, became like a dry sponge meeting water the moment it came into contact with the warm blood drops!
The blood did not slip out, but was instantly absorbed, as if there was an invisible siphon force inside the eggshell.
What was even more mysterious was that as the blood was absorbed, Chen Ming clearly felt that the magic power in his body was also being pulled by invisible threads, flowing out and merging into the silver dragon egg.
If this were an ordinary Warcraft egg, the health and magic power absorbed by it should have been sufficient by now.
But this is a silver dragon egg with royal blood!
So Chen Ming soon discovered that although his magic power was still sufficient, his blood volume might not be enough to hold on!
So he quickly asked Jin Bisha for help: "Quick! Honey, help me charge..."
Jin Bisha didn't understand why Chen Ming suddenly wanted to recharge with her halfway through the contract.
But she was still very happy that she was finally able to help!
Besides, she and Chen Ming are an old couple, so there is nothing to be shy about.
As for Luo Qixi who was standing aside, Jin Bisha knew that Chen Ming was already planning to conquer her, and they would definitely be a family in the future, so there was no need to be shy about anything.
So Jin Bisha quickly tied her hair up and frightened...
Although Luo Qixi was shocked by the scene before her, she still stayed in her position, ready to treat Chen Ming at any time.
"[Big Kidney Returns]!"
This time it was not to gain the power of pleasure, but to save his life, so Chen Ming acted like a real man for five seconds!
In fact, Chen Ming had already tested it a long time ago. The instant energy restoration effect of [Big Kidney Returns] can restore all body fluids and physical strength.
If you only replenish one type of body fluid, it's impossible to achieve infinite recharge. Sweating could kill him, exhaustion could kill him...
So after using [Big Kidney Returns], Chen Ming's health was fully restored, and he immediately felt relieved!
Sage mode makes Chen Ming's thinking extremely clear.
He endured the constant burning pain from his fingertips and the slight dizziness caused by blood loss, and concentrated his attention. He began to recite the ancient and difficult magic pet contract spell recorded in ancient books in a low and clear voice.
Every syllable seems to contain a strange power.
Fortunately, when using the skill [Return of the Big Kidney], you don’t need to shout it out, you can use it with just a thought, otherwise it will inevitably interrupt the spell of the magic pet contract.
As the spell was chanted, the blood that dripped onto the eggshell and was absorbed seemed to be given life!
They did not completely disappear. Instead, some of them reappeared on the surface of the eggshell, like self-aware snakes, winding and flowing, automatically outlining the complex and sacred contract magic circle pattern on the pages.
The lines gradually deepened from light to dark, from virtual to real, and finally formed a complete, strange rune emitting a faint red light. It was deeply imprinted on the surface of the silver eggshell, complementing the luster of the eggshell itself.
When Chen Ming used [Big Kidney Returns] over ten times and Jin Bisha was almost full, the last syllable of the spell finally fell, and the last stroke of the magic circle was just completed. The red light flashed slightly and then disappeared, leaving only a clear blood-red mark.
Chen Ming felt relieved and immediately moved his injured finger away. Beads of sweat the size of beans slid down his temples.
At this moment, Luo Qixi, who had been prepared for a long time, took action!
As the healing magic was cast, a soft and vibrant emerald green light precisely wrapped around Chen Ming's injured index finger.
