Chapter 1540 Evil Eye
Led by Kut Aiz, some people walked up the long steps and entered the front hall of the Grand Elder's Palace.
Gordon thought he would see a lot of people here, but actually there weren't.
On second thought, the Great Elder and his men probably summoned the hunters on the list in batches for the sake of confidentiality to avoid excessive communication.
After they arrived at the front hall, a member of the Dragon Clan Guild soon came out of the hall. She bowed slightly and said, "Master Gordon, please follow me.
The rest of you, please wait for a moment."
Anhil glanced at Hayata, who remained calm and tried to pretend nothing had happened.
I thought to myself, you guys really know something.
The Great Elder called everyone over and met with them separately, which was an unusual thing in itself.
Feng Ying's face was full of confusion, and Gail's hesitant look was a normal reaction. In comparison, Hayata's calmness seemed a bit deliberate.
Gordon followed the staff into the hall.
The heavy and thick palace door that was strong enough to block out all sounds was closed.
The whole world seemed to have gone quiet.
"You're here." The great elder's voice sounded like thunder.
Gordon bowed his head slightly in respect.
"I think Amos has informed you of this, right?" asked the guild leader who sat below the great elder. "Have you guessed the content of the assessment?"
Gordon nodded and said, "Gene told me about those black bones. If I'm not mistaken, it should be those black bones that were touched?"
"That's about right. It might be more exciting." The guild leader showed a subtle expression on his face that could not be called a smile.
The Great Elder was much more direct, he spoke in a low voice: "In the ice cave behind the village of Pokai, there is a huge sword.
That sword belonged to another dragon-man in a distant time."
"Another dragon man?"
Are there other similar great elders in history?
The Great Elder nodded slowly, "Yes, in my opinion, the dragon man is even stronger than me.
After all, he had killed the 'Miraporeas (Black Dragon)', and that sword was made from its material."
"Black Dragon." Gordon repeated the word.
"So the one occupying the ancient Shulet City, and the skull we encountered in the Lingfeng Ruins, are both this kind of monster called black dragon?"
"That's right." The guild leader nodded his chin, "According to the plan, everyone must pass the test before being told these deeper 'forbidden' knowledge.
But you and Hayata have both had direct contact with the skull, so."
"Want to try it? That test." The Great Elder interrupted the Guild Master with a resounding, dull voice.
His eyes fell on Gordon through his lowered white eyebrows.
"Then let's give it a try." Gordon was very relaxed.
He has absolute confidence in his own willpower.
A smile appeared in the eyes of the Great Elder, and he winked at the Guild Master.
The latter picked up an inconspicuous but quite thick metal box from behind and brought it to Gordon.
Gordon opened the box and found that it was wrapped and stuffed with some tattered and old cloth, which reminded him of Feng Ying's dragon skeleton cloth.
I think it should be something similar, used to seal the breath.
He casually lifted the cloth, and a strange crystal slightly larger than a fist, with a turbid dark yellow color, appeared in front of him.
The crystal is a regular sphere, somewhat damaged, with a crack in the center. The dark color in the crack seems to connect to another world.
This is a crystallized eyeball.
The moment Gordon's eyes met that "eye", he felt as if his heart was being squeezed by an invisible hand. The strange and cold breath froze his soul.
Fortunately, these strange feelings only lasted for a very short moment, and he got rid of the suppression of this breath.
He could have endured this ten years ago, let alone now.
Gordon reached out and picked up the crystal, looked at it carefully for a few times, fiddled with it for a few times before putting it back, "Is this the eyeball of the 'black dragon'?
Isn't it a little small? A fire dragon's eyeballs are bigger than this."
The guild leader carefully covered the box with a cloth to block out the smell, and then closed the metal box, then said, "To be precise, it is the evil crystals that formed when the black dragon's pupil dried up after its death. We call it the 'black dragon's evil eye'.
It came from the huge sword in the ice cave in Pokai Village and is one of the core materials of that sword."
"So Senior Amos went to Pokai Village to take this eyeball?" Gordon asked curiously.
“.That’s not wrong. The sword was originally used to intimidate the Collapsing Dragon deep in the Great Snow Mountain.
However, since the dragon escaped on its own and was killed by the hunters, the importance of the sword was not that great.
Of course, out of respect for the dragon man, after the test is over, we will embed the evil eye back into the giant sword and seal it again."
That dragon is a bit difficult to comment on.
Gordon curled his lips, "So, the test is to let the hunters on the list take turns touching the evil eye, and those who are fine will pass?"
The guild leader's eyebrows twitched, "It's not about touching, it's about looking. If you can get rid of the suppression within a short period of time after looking at the evil eye and are mentally stable, you can pass.
After all, the oppression of a living black dragon will only be stronger than this evil eye. If you can't even do this, you will only die if you walk in front of the black dragon."
"That's right." Gordon nodded.
If it was something of this magnitude, Anshil and the others would definitely have no problem, and even Xianglan would be able to do it with ease.
"Oh yeah, let me make a suggestion. If a hunter who has passed the test has a hunting partner, it would be best if the hunting partner also takes the test."
"That's a reasonable suggestion. I'll take note of it." The guild leader nodded.
As for the possibility that someone might have a mental breakdown during the test, Gordon didn't ask, and the Great Elders didn't explain.
The people on that list must have been carefully selected, so they wouldn't be that terrible.
"There will be a special meeting later for more specific information about the Black Dragon. Try to stay in East Dorma during this period. Also, keep it confidential." The guild leader gave a few final reminders.
Gordon responded and prepared to leave.
A staff member came over at the right time and led him out of the hall through the side door.
Gordon came to the side hall and did not go back alone, but leaned against the doorpost, waiting for his companions.
Not long after, Hayata came out.
Her face was calm, and she knew the result without asking. The two of them whispered to each other for a while, and Feng Ying and An Xier also walked out of the side door of the hall one after another.
Having fought head-on with the other "taboo", they would naturally not be scared by an evil eye.
Feng Ying even said casually that the eyeball was quite pretty, and that she would ask Mushroom to pick a complete one if she had the chance.
"So what you are hiding is this test?" Anshil asked.
Gordon shrugged. "Yes, Hayata and I have come into contact with the black dragon's skull. The guild leader is worried that we might guess something and cause the information to be leaked in advance."
"He's overthinking it." Anshil sneered.
Gordon angrily put his arms around his neck and was about to say something, but suddenly he noticed a hint of worry in Ansel's eyes.
Before I could ask, I saw Gale coming out of the hall humming a little tune.
Ansel moved Gordon's arm away and looked at Gail.
"How about it?"
"What's going on?" Gale looked puzzled. "You don't think I can pass that little test, do you?"
"No." The worry in Ansel's eyes became more obvious.
He actually hoped that Gail would not pass.
