Vincent looked at the merchant in front of him in surprise and asked in disbelief, “Dragon egg, what dragon egg?”

The burly mysterious merchant seemed to have treated Vincent as one of his own. He replied, “Everyone is doing the same thing, so stop pretending! What other dragon egg could it be? Of course, it’s a half-hatched egg from a Frost Dragon!”

Vincent subconsciously gasped, but he forced himself to stabilize his aura and maintained a calm look.

Vincent originally thought that he was the most prominent Dragon Race material merchant among the 10,000 races of the Black Hole. However, he did not expect the material merchant in front of him who only had a few drops of dragon blood to be the real vicious merchant!

He even stole a hatched dragon egg. It could be seen that the other party’s strength was also quite extraordinary!

Vincent then thought of the Frost Dragon’s egg in front of him. This would mean that the dragon living at the Inn was most likely a Frost Dragon and the Fire Dragon blood that the merchant had obtained must be through trade with Wilson.

This was also probably why he only managed to obtain so little dragon blood. This was because Wilson had long been spoiled by the rich Vincent. The treasures that an ordinary individual could obtain would not even reach one-tenth of what Vincent had. Therefore, Wilson would never give many benefits away when doing business with others!

“This is not right! This means that there is a Frost Dragon wandering in the inn!”

Vincent exclaimed in his heart, but his face remained calm. He did not reveal any flaws. Instead, he raised his hand and said with a magnanimous expression, “I want this dragon egg. State your price!”

The merchant saw that Vincent seemed to have a wealthy appearance and immediately became excited. He stretched out two fingers and said, “I want two bottles of Fire Dragon blood. Two whole bottles!”

When Vincent heard this, he did not even frown. He immediately took out another bottle of fire dragon blood from his storage ring and placed it in front of the material merchant along with the previous bottle. He then stretched out his hand to take the dragon egg.

Just as Vincent was about to turn around and leave, the mysterious material merchant reminded him, “Sir, I have to remind you that once the dragon egg hatches, it is considered a new life. Therefore, you cannot store it in your storage ring. You can only carry it with you at all times. and a dragon mother can definitely smell the scent of her child. So, you should either leave the Inn as soon as possible or quickly think of a way to refine this dragon egg. Otherwise, you will be in big trouble soon!”

With that, the material merchant did not give Vincent any chance to respond. He picked up the bottles of blood from the ground and disappeared in an instant.

Kurt, who had been following Vincent, had always been on guard against the mysterious man. The moment he disappeared, he immediately turned his head and looked around, trying to confirm the direction in which the mysterious man had left.

However, no matter how Kurt searched, he could not find any trace of the mysterious person. It was as if he had evaporated into thin air.

“Mr. Vincent, the person is missing!”

Vincent lowered his head to look at the dragon egg in his hand. A bone-piercing chill instantly spread to his palm, robbing the warmth in his flesh and blood.

In his shock, Vincent could only spiritualize his hand that was holding onto the dragon egg. He raised his other hand to signal Kurt to keep quiet. He shook his head and said, “It’s over. Looks like we’ve been tricked!”

Kurt quickly asked, “Why? Is this dragon egg fake?”

Vincent’s expression was serious as he said, “No, this is definitely a genuine Frost Dragon egg. However, that person’s original intention was to sell this dragon egg to us in order to divert the Frost Dragon’s hatred. We must have previously angered him with our arrogant attitude. He wanted to prove himself to the merchants here, so he took the initiative to take out the dragon egg. But now that I think about it, I believe that he heard from our conversation and believed that the two of us were very confident individuals. Either we were sitting on a huge fortune, or we had a deep background. When I took the initiative to reveal that I was a Dragon Race material merchant, it was simply proof that I have both wealth and background. I’m the perfect candidate to take over the giant dragon egg for him!”

Kurt replied with a face full of resentment, “That person is too cunning! If I meet him again, I’ll definitely teach him a good lesson and let you vent your anger!”

Vincent did not immediately respond to Kurt.

Vincent soon adapted to the temperature of the dragon egg and adjusted his fire spiritualization state of his right hand so that he could continue to maintain his body temperature and not suffer a frostbite. He did not want the dragon egg to melt in the flames.

“This matter ends here. From now on, do not mention the matter of revenge. First, we do not know the other party’s appearance. Second, we do not know the other party’s whereabouts. Moreover, judging by the way he left just now, he is probably stronger than the two of us. In the future, even if we really recognize him, we must pretend not to know him!” reminded Vincent.

“Why?”

Kurt looked at Vincent with a puzzled expression. Ever since he followed Vincent on his adventures, he had never seen Vincent show weakness to anyone.

Even someone as powerful as Gajero and the Ultimate Evil Lord would end up dead and injured under Vincent’s scheme, right?

Vincent turned to look at Kurt. He smiled and said, “Because that person didn’t want to harm us. He was just forced by the situation and had no choice but to sell the dragon egg. Didn’t he specifically tell us the truth before we were about to leave? He just didn’t want to see us die for no reason!”

Kurt calmed down after hearing that. After thinking for a while, he asked Vincent, “Then what should we do next? Charlie is helping us gather wanderers and we will set off in three days. We can’t leave the Inn during this period of time! Do you want to refine this dragon egg immediately?”

Vincent thought for a moment and shook his head with confidence. He smiled and said, “Although that person has no malice toward us, the method he proposed is not necessarily a good idea! Now that this dragon egg is in my hands, I must let it display its greatest value. I am not an expert at refining materials, and rashly refining it will only destroy this dragon egg. Therefore, I can only use my own method to let it display its greatest value!”

Kurt looked at Vincent with a surprised expression, shook his head, and sighed helplessly, “I still don’t understand!”

Vincent said confidently, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand. You’ll understand in less than a day!”

After saying that, Vincent turned around and left the trading market with Kurt. While walking, he would throw the dragon egg in his hand into the sky from time to time and then catch it steadily.. His actions attracted many silent gazes.
