Fighting a Level 40 Epic-ranked Dark Mage provides a lot of experience points. In addition, the Dark Mage had harmed his Senior. How could Daniel Davis let him off?
Then, he issued an order to the Skeleton Dragon. Immediately, the black patterns on the Skeleton Dragon's body began to circulate with light. Its white jade-like skeleton body became even more elite.
The red Hellfire all over its body turned into balls of fire that shot towards the Dark Mage.
The Dark Mage's black robe began to expand, turning into a ball of black fog that constantly attacked with Hellfire.
Feeling his HP rapidly decreasing, the Dark Mage's face was filled with panic.
"Stop quickly. You don't even know why I want to capture them. Aren't you afraid of the one issuing the order? Stop now. I'll hand them all over to you. I promise I won't pursue this matter!"
Daniel Davis sneered. Did he not care about the threat of the Dark Mage at all? As long as the Dark Mage was dead, there was naturally no need to worry about the consequences.
Then, he shouted:
"Hell's Dragon Breath!"
The Skeleton Dragon roared and flapped its bone wings. A terrifying energy began to gather in its mouth.
At this moment, the Dark Mage was already enveloped by the flames, and there was no possibility of escape.
A shocking red pillar of light came out of the Skeleton Dragon's mouth. Immediately, a dazzling light began to cover everything.
A desperate scream sounded.
At that moment, the Sword Squad and Wind Whisper Squad who had rushed over happened to see everything.
Faraday Dylan's handsome face was filled with shock. He grinned and said:
"That's a Dark Mage we're talking about. He was killed just like that. How powerful is that Skeleton Dragon?!"
Then, he looked at Swift Barlow, the leader of the Sword Squad.
Swift Barlow's face was solemn as he said absentmindedly:
"That Skeleton Dragon's level can't exceed 40, but its creature level should be Mythical!"
"Mythical creature!"
Instantly, the surroundings were filled with gasps.
Swift Barlow asked quickly:
"Is it possible for us to deal with it if we join forces?"
"Impossible! Unless I break through Level 50 and complete my second class change, with my talent as a Warrior, my attribute points will at least triple. Only then will I have the strength to fight.
"Now, even if I join forces with you, it's impossible to block the attack of the Skeleton Dragon. I'll only be slaughtered!"
Suddenly, a male voice sounded:
"Come out, stop looking!"
As the voice sounded, fear immediately lingered in everyone's hearts.
Swift Barlow took the lead and walked out of the forest. Faraday Dylan gritted his teeth and followed closely behind.
The difference between the two sides was like heaven and earth, and they were far from being a match. Since that person and the Dark Mage were not on the same side, it meant that there was still a possibility of negotiation.
"Swift Barlow, Captain of the Sword Squad"
"Faraday Dylan, Captain of the Wind Whisper Squad."
"Greetings, Sir Knight."
A tall Warrior and a handsome Mage bowed respectfully in front of him. One of them was Level 49 while the other was Level 48. Clearly, they were both hidden classes. In the past, Daniel Davis could only look up to them.
At this moment, his Senior had already been transferred to the back of the Skeleton Dragon. Their gazes were always fixed on the unconscious man and woman on the ground.
Daniel Davis understood instantly.
"Are you here to take my hostage?"
"You've misunderstood!"
The handsome Mage Faraday Dylan was the first to speak and continued:
"That lady is the daughter of our Vice Commander. She was kidnapped by a Dark Mage. We came here this time to save her. We didn't expect you to take the lead. We naturally don't dare to take your hostage!"
The tip of the Skeleton Dragon's nose suddenly spat out a ball of Hellfire. Swift Barlow immediately took a few steps back and looked up in shock.
Daniel Davis looked at the other man.
Swift Barlow answered quickly:
"I'm also here for a quest, which is that young master!"
After understanding everything, Daniel Davis sized up the two of them and gradually came up with a plan. He chuckled and said:
"I was the one who killed the Dark Mage and saved the hostages. There's no reason for me to snatch him halfway.
"How about this? From now on, we'll hold a hostage auction. I'll only sell one hostage. It depends on your financial resources!"
Swift Barlow and Faraday Dylan looked at each other.
Faraday Dylan raised his staff, and his long green hair shone under the sunlight. He forcefully suppressed his fear and looked at the majestic figure of the Skeleton Dragon.
"Sir, I'm willing to pay a million gold coins to thank you for saving the hostages from the Dark Mages!"
Swift Barlow looked at Faraday Dylan fiercely and immediately turned around. He looked at Daniel Davis sincerely and said:
"Sir, I'm willing to pay 1.2 million gold coins!"
Riding on the neck of the Skeleton Dragon, Daniel Davis stroked the smooth skeleton of the Skeleton Dragon with a smile on his face.
"You don't have to flatter me. This is an auction. The winner has to be determined by financial resources. The highest bidder wins!"
It was not until the Skeleton Dragon roared that Daniel Davis remembered that he was sitting on a beautiful and elegant lady. He quickly retracted his hand and straightened his back.
"I won't give up on Mr. Monroe Dean's only son. I'll add another 200,000 gold coins!"
Swift Barlow looked at Faraday Dylan and continued to raise the price.
Mr. Monroe Dean was his benefactor. He would definitely not give up on this quest. He quickly began to raise the price.
"Swift Barlow, how can I let go of the Vice President's daughter? I'll pay 2 million gold coins."
"Another 200,000 gold coins!"
…
Immediately, the two of them became hostile. Not long after, when the price reached 2.8 million gold coins, both sighed, their faces filled with despair.
Faraday Dylan happily pulls out a million coins from his Dimensional Pocket.
Daniel Davis got down from the Skeleton Dragon and scanned the gold coins with his spiritual power. It was a total of 2.8 million gold coins. Then, he put it into his portable space.
Daniel Davis's heart was filled with joy and his tone became much more relaxed.
"Alright, I'm a trustworthy person. You can leave now."
Faraday Dylan was overjoyed. He looked at his gold coins disappear and bid farewell before retreating into the forest with the unconscious girl.
Not long after, the Wind Whisper Squad members were all gone.
Daniel Davis looked to Swift. Barlow beside him and asked:
"Aren't you leaving?"
Swift Barlow glanced at the unconscious teenager. His face was filled with hesitation. Finally, he mustered his courage and knelt on one knee in front of Daniel Davis.
"Sir, please, let me take the hostage. The Sword Squad will always remember your friendship."
The entire Sword Squad only managed to gather 2,600,000 gold coins. He really had no money left.
Daniel Davis held his chin and looked at the Warrior's sincere gaze for a long time before saying slowly,
"Alright, then I'll take a loss. Dark Mage are not easy to deal with. I'll give you 2.6 million gold coins. Pay up and leave!"
Swift Barlow was overjoyed. He quickly took out the gold coins and left with his team after clearing the transaction.
Daniel Davis took a deep breath as he scanned the gold mountain in his Dimensional Pocket with his spiritual power.
The two of them had contributed a total of 5.4 million gold coins, 370,000 gold coins from selling equipment, and 57,700,000 gold coins from selling drops. Now, he had nearly 6 million gold coins.
A real millionaire!
