My Passive Skills are Invincible! - Chapter 313
Chapter 313: Close, but Not Close Enough
After seeing Egg’s panel attributes, Mike was silent. He finally knew why all the treasure here disappeared.
The reason was that Egg was a money dragon!
This was a special species of dragon.
Some dragons were fire-type, so they were red.
Some dragons were flight-type, so they were white.
Other dragons had all sorts of attributes.
Bluewater dragons, golden metal dragons, black dark dragons, and even bone dragons.
Each dragon had their own special characteristics.
The most special thing about money dragons was that they needed to eat a lot of valuable things to improve themselves.
So, all the treasure in this treasure trove had actually been eaten by Egg!
At this moment, Mike seemed to understand something.
No wonder before Mike’s rebirth, the dragon roar of the money dragon appeared in the region.
However, after rebirth, it happened before the new region was merged into this one.
The reason was Mike!
Mike became the new leader of the Fire Blade Bandits and obtained the curse of the Fire Blade’s Curse.
The dragon egg must have been part of the 10% and sent to the treasury. According to the normal progress, the bandits would not have had enough treasure to hatch the egg. Now that Mike was the leader and 10% of all his spoils of war were transferred to the Fire Blade Bandits’ treasury, it must have been enough to speed up this whole timeline.
It was also because of Mike’s large number of adventures that Egg was found.
So, in fact, when Egg was still a dragon egg, it was sent to this treasure trove.
This treasure trove was destined to be eaten up by the egg.
Of course, it makes sense… right?
As for how Egg ate the treasure in its egg form, Mike could not be sure.
Anyway, no matter how curious he was, he could not picture the scene of it actually happening.
After all, Mike could not make Egg regurgitate the treasure.
“Forget it. If the treasure is gone, so be it. At least we have a new friend.”
Mike looked at Egg with a smile. Mike did not care about money.
If he wanted to make money, he could make a lot of money at any given time.
Getting a dragon to be his pet was a rare thing. After all, not everyone could have a dragon.
Even in the major regions, no one had ever gotten a pet dragon.
It could be said that Mike was now the only player in the world who had gotten such a legendary pet.
As long as he kept feeding Egg with all kinds of valuable items, in time, Egg would become a real full-fledged dragon. A dragon that could make the whole world tremble!
When he thought that he could ride on the back of Egg and fly above the skies in the future, Mike felt fascinated.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you to eat something good!”
Mike patted Egg’s head, and Egg immediately jumped happily.
For it, eating was the happiest thing that it could ever experience.
Mike grabbed Stone with one hand and Egg with the other, and activated the Space Travel Bracelet.
In the next moment, he, a tiny tree, and a tiny dragon disappeared on the spot.
It was as if no one had ever come here before.
After about an hour, a group of players rushed here in a hurry.
Every one of them showed an anxious look, it was as if they were one step slower, the people around them would beat them to it.
“There’s no mistake. The dragon must be right in front!”
“I’m sure that we heard the dragon’s roar!”
“F*ck, if I kill this dragon, I’ll be supeer rich!”
“Stop dreaming, this dragon will definitely die at my hands!”
Many people ran forward and argued with each other as if this would make them look more intimidating.
However, just as everyone was arguing, a player’s voice came from the front.
“There’s an empty mountain here!”
Everyone was slightly stunned when they heard this.
Empty mountain?
What did that mean?
Although they were puzzled, they still quickened their pace.
Who cares what it meant? There must be something strange ahead. It might be related to the dragon’s roar they heard earlier.
However, when the players came to the front of the treasury, they were all stunned when they saw the huge, empty mountain gate on the mountain wall.
What was going on?
Why was there such a huge gate on this mountain?
Moreover, this mountain was actually empty.
No wonder that person said that it was an empty mountain.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay. They were all confused by how empty it was.
Where was the dragon?
What was happening in front of them?
Everyone was silent, right then, one of the players suddenly asked, “Who was the first to arrive here just now?”
Hearing this question, one of the players was slightly stunned, but he still raised his hand subconsciously and said, “I was the one who arrived first.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the other players all looked at him.
The player who asked the question took a step forward and revealed a menacing expression, “Did you hide the dragon?”
“???”
When that player heard this, he was completely dumbfounded.
Me?
Hide the dragon?
Are you f*cking kidding me?
We’re talking about a dragon here!
Is it possible to even hide such a huge thing?
However, the surrounding players all approached the person as if they did not care about logic at all.
For them, they came here to seek benefits. If there were no benefits, that meant that they came here for nothing!
Even if the benefits were not from the dragon, as long as there were benefits, it would be fine.
Obviously, everyone was prepared to blackmail this player.
Sensing the malicious intent of the people around him, that player stood silently on the spot and did not say anything.
The player who asked took a step forward again and said fiercely, “Don’t think that you can deceive everyone here. I’ve guessed it long ago. That dragon’s roar must be a young dragon. Perhaps you were the first to arrive here, and directly tamed that young dragon into a pet, then pretended not to know anything! Perhaps, this empty mountain was originally filled with treasure, but you took it all for yourself!”
“Quick, hand over the dragon and the treasures!”
Hearing this, the surrounding players were all shocked.
F*ck, this kind of exposing method was too unique.
This guy’s imagination was as high as the skies, right?
How could such a loud dragon’s roar be from a young dragon?
No matter how you looked at it, it was definitely an adult dragon, right?
Moreover, how could someone use an entire mountain as a place to store their treasure?
This kind of thing was something that most people dared not to think about.
Moreover, could a dragon even be subdued just like that?
How could it be so simple?
Although everyone did not believe this kind of statement, they still did not choose to keep their mouths shut.
This was because everyone wanted to receive the benefits too if it was true.
However, just as they stared at the first player who arrived, the player suddenly disappeared.
Everyone was slightly stunned when they saw this scene, but they quickly reacted.
“F*ck, he actually went offline!”
Everyone knew that going offline was not as simple as closing your eyes and going offline.
Normally, going offline required 10 seconds of waiting time.
If the player was not in combat mode during these 10 seconds, then he could go offline.
Otherwise, even if he went offline, the character would still stay in the game.
Now, the character that remained in the game was an empty shell.
Anyone could easily kill this empty shell.
Therefore, forcefully logging off would not prevent the person from suffering losses.
Seeing that the target that was about to be extorted had disappeared, many players angrily looked at the player who had made a bold guess.
“It was you who scared him off. Now that the dragon and treasure are gone, what do you think we should do?!”
In an instant, the situation changed drastically.
The player who was the first to make the move was extorted by someone else.
That player seemed to be very dissatisfied with the situation and immediately raised his weapon to attack first.
“Damn it, you want to kill me? Watch how I kill you first.”
“If you want to kill me, then so be it! I’ll kill all of you and drop your equipment. I’ll be rich from it all!”
Without a word, a large group of players in front of the treasure vault started a chaotic battle.
Although the dragon and potential treasure were made up as an excuse to extort money, no one would have correctly guessed the truth.
The nonsense they all spouted was actually close to the truth, but not close enough.
At this time, the guy who really took the dragon and the treasure had already arrived at the city’s tavern.
