"Who is Roland? Some kind of new delicacy? Never heard of it."
"He seems to be the last descendant of the Land of Arashi? By the way, do you know about the Land of Arashi? It was destroyed more than three hundred years ago, and he was the prince at that time."
"...That said, I have a bit of an impression. Has the inheritance of the King of Lan been cut off? It's really amazing. I had a good relationship with that guy back then, and those guys in the north were better at fighting than the barbarians. Still.
What a shame.”
"Oh, no matter what happened in the beginning, he is just a mortal. What a pity."
"Yes...have you heard? Sanlang said that Henglei people are particularly delicious with a special pickle. Do you want to try it together?"
When Dragon City officially held a welcome banquet and invited a mortal to participate, such exchanges were everywhere in Dragon City.
And this is inevitable. After all, for the proud dragon clan, the last time they treated a mortal with formal etiquette was unknown. But for those ancient dragons, it is normal to just sleep casually for a hundred years.
The existence of more than three hundred years ago was just a young boy who had just made his mark.
At this time, the ancient golden dragon Horus had a headache. As the supreme elder, he decided to invite the delayed envoy from the Kingdom of Mage with the highest courtesy. The other elders began to complain. What a shame.
Words like "I'm just a human being, what are you inviting me to do? If you love me, come here, if you don't, go away" and other words were flying everywhere.
"That's enough, you'll know when you meet the person! And..."
Before he finished speaking, Horus found strangely that not only could his voice not be transmitted, but everything in front of him was still, and the human consciousness was still there. But his body could not move a finger, and not only that, even the sound in the air
Tiny water droplets and dust are stopped.
And the next moment, everything returned to calm, as if everything just now was just a nightmare.
"what happened?"
When the dragons exchanged in shock the strange scene that had just happened, Horus stood up.
"It should be here already... It seems that there are many people who are as short-sighted and look down on mortals as you are. I hope it doesn't cause big trouble."
Half an hour ago, when the Northern Lights slowly sailed into the Ek Canyon where Dragon City is located, we encountered countless "enthusiastic spectators" watching. Before those giant dragons tried to attack, the leader of the way
Blue Dragon opened up the situation for us.
The mountains on both sides are full of strange-shaped rocks. From the three-dimensional perspective view of the bridge, the huge warship moving inside looks like a small toy, and the surrounding dragons only look like swallows from the perspective view.
Birds.
"There are more than 3,700 giant dragons within the range, as well as an equal number of young dragons and old dragons. Many locations are even black on the detector. They should be covered by the mandatory concept of 'unpredictable'. As expected,
They are the three major gathering places of the Dragon Clan."
The magical mechanical airborne radar that combines the sonic magic of this world has excellent performance. The only drawback is that the technical and industrial level is not enough, and the size is more than two rooms. However, if it is used on a battleship, there will be no problem.
.
"In fact, we have entered the scope of Dragon City just now. We must be prepared."
Outside the window, there were constantly curious dragons passing by the edge of the battleship. I was a little worried that the controller of the turret could not control his hands.
In front of this huge Northern Lights battleship, the dragon became smaller and naturally restrained its arrogance. And I also avoided the embarrassment of being watched.
"Is this one of the three major dragon cities? It's much smaller than expected, but it looks very valuable..."
At the end of the mountains, the castle complex carved as a whole with white jade is very eye-catching. If I read it correctly, this is indeed the valuable Yalong jade. This rare stone jade is warm in winter and cool in summer.
Although it is not a magic metal that can forge equipment, its value is not lower than that of mithril of the same volume. It is also very suitable for rich people to use to make jade beds and other things to show off their wealth, but it can be used to build a house. Should it be said that it is worthy of being a dragon.
"It's just a historical monument. The guards on duty every year have to deal with a dozen young dragons trying to steal. These young dragons will do anything to decorate the dragon's nest for the upcoming breeding period."
The brass dragon Yi Wenli naturally accompanied us, and after communicating some things, the trust between us has deepened a lot, at least we no longer need to deliberately avoid many things.
This is not the first time I have visited Dragon City, and I have a certain understanding of the unique existence of Dragon City.
Dragon City is not a gathering place for dragons. It is very rare for one percent of the residents within the scope of his management to live in it. Although it is incredible to say, considering the size of the dragons and their strong sense of territory,
It's natural.
Adult dragons often have their own territory. They have a group of monsters in their territory, and intelligent creatures serve as servants. They live like an emperor, so how can they go to a certain city to become a commoner.
In the eyes of most dragons, Dragon City is a government agency that is controlled by a group of big bosses, and it is also a temporary market used by ordinary dragons to trade private collections. In order to avoid being recruited by big bosses, they will not choose to go there unless they have to.
Dragon City Report.
The same is generally true for the Dragon City in the underground world. However, due to the cruel living environment, the power of the Dragon King in the underground Dragon City is more concentrated. In the Dragon City on the surface, even the leaders are often the collective responsibility system of the elders, or very few.
An incomprehensible boss rotation system.
But every social system must have its reason for existence. In fact, this chaotic and inefficient system is also an inevitable choice under the current system and actual situation of the Dragon Clan. Each dragon branch is too individual. Let the Brass Dragon do it.
Representing the interests of the Blue Dragon is basically nonsense. It would be nice if they didn't fight.
Unlike the underground world where there are only black dragons and red dragons, the above-ground Dragon City has too many branches. Each branch expects someone to represent their interests, so it naturally becomes an elder council system in which everyone has a say. In fact, some
The powerful branches have multiple elders, and some branches have no elders. Everything speaks with the Dragon Clan's tradition - fists.
Due to its large size, most residents of Dragon City will choose to do things in Dragon City in a small form. If the baby dragon cannot change, they will complete their transactions outside Dragon City.
Walking in the Dragon City, as far as the eye can see, there are not many adult dragons. Except for the young dragons who are carried by their mothers, they are all strange humanoid creatures with dragon power. Among them
Most of them are elves, humans, and there are also orcs, dwarves and the like. I even saw a few trolls and ogres, but the strange thing is that the troll is quite respected by other dragons.
"The adult dragon will choose the appearance of a race as its small body form, and the appearance and race of this form cannot be changed. When the elves were in power, they often had to deal with the elves. Naturally, the appearance of elves is the most common, and now they belong to
In the human era, most people with human appearance were young dragons, but if they had the appearance of trolls..."
The most obvious example is the mother and daughter Xiaohong. The mother has the appearance of a red-haired elf, but Xiaohong is a black-haired human.
"An old dragon from the ancient troll era? No wonder."
In a sense, the appearance distribution of Dragon City is also the history of the rise and fall of various races in the Ashe world. Looking at more than 50% of the dragons in the form of elves, I can only sigh at the strength of the elven civilization, but I also feel inexplicable.
It's sad. After all, those ancient golden elves that exist and change always have a somewhat specious feel. It's hard to say whether the one around me is genuine or not.
Therefore, even though Heloise still had a calm smile on the surface, I was not surprised at all by the stirring emotions coming from the soul link, so I quietly patted her shoulder.
And when we observe others, we will naturally become the object of observation.
Since we were attending a welcome banquet, we did not bring our entourage, and since the dragons here do not have the habit of using carriages, we naturally chose to walk.
Along the way, the undisguised elemental fluctuations of my artifact not only distracted the dragon's eyes, but also attracted some followers behind us. Although it is the most basic rule not to conflict in Dragon City, outsiders leaving
That moment may have been the moment he was robbed.
"They are all young dragons."
"Haha, young people are not sensible. You will know after a few losses."
And we all ignored the followers behind us. Those who followed were obviously young dragons. In addition to the fact that they were about to enter the breeding period and expected to gain more wealth to decorate the dragon's nest and attract mates, there were more old dragons.
We know that some people can be provoked and some people cannot be provoked. Those who dare to leave the artifact outside are not afraid of you coming to snatch it. This artifact does not even exist in epic myths. Even if such a being seems to be weak, how can he do whatever he wants?
provoke.
And suddenly, our eyes went dark, and a thin, white-skinned elf transformed into a white dragon in front of me.
"...It should be said that not all dragons are smart enough, or should I say that this is a mentally retarded white dragon."
"Dragonborn! Hand over the treasure in your hands, and I, Lord Hammaster, will become your new master."
"Oh, you actually thought I was a half-dragon?"
Dragons are accustomed to using dragonborn and half-dragons as servants and slaves, so ordinary dragonborns do not have a high status among the dragons. It seems that the dragon vein aura in me makes him think that I am a submissive to real dragons.
Ruo's half-dragon.
I smiled maliciously, and when I saw someone seemed to be planning to take the lead, several evil dragons jumped out from behind at the same time, including blue, green, white, and even bright red. It seemed that there were quite a few red dragons sneaking onto the ground.
Already.
"You...you little things, this slave escaped with Lord Hammaster's treasure. Do you plan to rob Lord Hammaster's treasure?"
The huge white dragon had a fishy stench at the corner of its mouth, and it pushed away the group of little dragons with a sweep of its tail. It looked like it was still an ancient white dragon that was quite old, but it had survived until now without being killed.
I guess it's a fluke that I've been staying in the Dragon Realm for a long time.
And it seems to be a little clever. It directly characterizes it as the master hunting down escaped slaves, avoiding the unspoken rules of Dragon City. When the Dragon Clan's steward comes, it is estimated that the matter will be over, not even the victim can be found, and others will not be able to make the same mistake.
Getting into trouble with an ancient dragon for some strange low-level dragonborn.
Seeing that there was a dispute here, including the somewhat notorious Hammaster, the bystanders around were talking a lot, but no one stopped them. Instead, they all looked at this place as if they were watching a good show, which included all kinds of things.
Malice.
"Why haven't you fought yet?"
"Hamast is probably going to be unlucky this time. He was punished just a few days ago."
"...That seems to be a real artifact."
Some dragons probably expected to see a fight, some were prepared to see the white dragon defeated, and some were considering the feasibility of taking action first, but no matter how they looked at it, there was no kind look in their eyes.
Shaking my head, I became less and less fond of the dragon clan, although I have never had a good impression of these big lizards, no matter which branch of dragon they were.
"Oh, you can really say that. Yi Wenli, is this the way you treat guests in Dragon City? Doesn't he know you?"
"Oh, to the Dragon Clan, the changing appearance of a human being doesn't mean much. It knows the three-headed demon dragon Yi Wenli, so how could it recognize me, a young brass dragon."
"So, don't you plan to fulfill your duties as an elder?"
"My sister is an elder, but I am not. Besides, Roland, don't you just need someone to scare the monkeys? This is all jumping out of the blue. Wouldn't it be pretty if I took the lead?"
I lowered my head and touched my hat, the black light on my cane flashed, and I shrugged.
"It's already boring after you say it. I want to enjoy the monkey show more."
Looking around, we seem to be surrounded by evil dragons, and the upright whispers and maliciousness are very unpleasant.
"...It's really noisy. Mantra: Be quiet!"
The shadow of the silver-faced man on the robe disappeared in an instant, and the pale silver light of law burst out like a halo. It was the same spell cast by the Sleepless Man himself, and the whole world was forcibly stopped at this moment.
The "Spell: Silence" of an ordinary spellcaster can probably only shut up a person within the court area, but it seems that the power of my spell is far beyond expectations. The result of the enhanced divine power is this ordinary one-ring forbidden spell.
It spread to the entire Dragon City.
At that moment, the whole world became quiet, the bad words disappeared, they lost the ability to speak, and in the mid-air above the Dragon City, the gliding dragon lost the ability to spread its wings, and they kept falling like dumplings.
They fell down, but the spell should have ended before they fell to their death.
And when I glanced at the panicked Hammaster and the little dragons, I smiled maliciously.
"Spell: Conviction."
But this time, it was the glory of the trial, and the people around who attempted to kill and intercept goods were made red. They were active criminals who were caught by the law enforcement officials.
"It seems that the security of Dragon City is very average."
Wherever he looked, there were several huge red zones, and the sleepless man's divine power once again allowed this low-level spell to expand to the entire city.
No matter how stupid Bailong was, Hammaster knew that he hit an iron plate this time, but before he could do anything, I raised my cane.
"Spell: Judgment of Sin..."
"Your Highness Roland, wait..."
It seemed that the movement of the spell was too loud, which alerted the dragon elders who were waiting. The sight of a group of dragons flying was quite shocking.
But I shook my head and directly completed the spell in my hand.
"Spell: Sin-breaking Strike."
The black staff just touched the white dragon's heel lightly. Hammaster's huge dragon head was stunned for a moment, then opened its eyes wide, opened its mouth in disbelief and looked at him for help.
The elders of the Dragon Clan.
"Bang!"
Without even uttering a scream, Hammaster's head exploded like a firework, and the blood splashed all over the street. Of course, the faces of the dragon clan elders were not missing.
Looking at the livid faces in front of me, I smiled with satisfaction.
"First meeting, dear elders of the Dragon Clan, I am Roland. What a pleasant welcome ceremony. You are really creative to find such a guy to welcome me." (To be continued)
