As night fell, Caesar finally arrived at Garanord, the first stop of the journey, and then easily entered the city as a dragonman, looking around, looking out to the north where the workshops and warehouses are gathered is the industrial area, and looking out to the south is the brightly lit market is intertwined with commercial places, and the east gate of the city is just at the junction of industry and commerce.

Caesar thought for a moment and followed the flow of people to the left into the market.

At this time, it is close to July, which is the height of summer, and the northland, which has a unique climatic characteristics, is even hotter, but now the sun has disappeared, the evening is cooler, and the street is gradually lively, the charm of the proprietress stands at the door to greet acquaintances, fishmongers and fruit sellers put their stalls on the street, the aroma of food, the smell of sewage and other smells are mixed together, constituting the unique "popularity" of the market.

"Come on, come on, fragrant and fresh oyster soup, drink a bowl at night, and sleep peacefully all night."

"Crispy muffins, chilled ginger beer and summer nectar."

"Freshly dug gold from outside the city, fidelity!"

"Victor's gladiators, the last two, buy and give a slave girl."

……

Most of the slave and treasure vendors have fixed stalls, while the street vendors selling fruits and cooked food shout loudly, weaving through the crowd and greeting the hurried passers-by, including humans and orcs, and even powerful dogs and dragons, but the street vendors are not afraid at all, and still go up to sell enthusiastically.

"This kind of place Luna should love to visit."

Caesar tilted his head slightly, he took a breath, he was in good spirits, speaking of which this kind of life of blending into the crowd and the market was very rare for him, and most of the time he maintained the habit of being a dragon, and although he had created this multi-racial empire with his own hands, he rarely blended into it.

Taking time out to shuttle through the crowded streets and alleys of the market is one of the few times he has free time to enjoy.

As we walked along, the crowd around us slowly changed from sparse to dense, and Caesar was walking towards the heart of the business district, where wandering harpists and bards were playing, sometimes melancholy, sometimes melodious.

Some musicians will be surrounded by a lot of children, they listen to the music, according to the instinct to follow the beat, twist their bodies, dance their own dances, whether it is the current empire or the former northern kingdoms period, people have a tradition of holding bonfires, when people will eat, drink and dance around the bonfire, it is one of the few entertainment activities in this era, adults will divide the time and place, but the children will not.

"Strange." Caesar was a little puzzled: "Why didn't you see the adventurer?" ”

Adventurers and mercenaries are always one of the most sought-after professions in Eladia, and adventurers can be easily found in any country, wandering between humans and aliens, exploring treasures and slaying dragons, creating countless gorgeous epic chapters.

However, Caesar forgot that it was he who ordered the banning of the adventurer profession before he fell asleep, and incorporated all those who had energy in their heads and could only cause trouble into the Imperial Mercenary Regiment, and Hogg did his best to implement this instruction, and now, wild adventurers in the Northern Empire are very rare.

While Caesar was thinking, two children in ragged clothes, sallow from malnutrition, passed him joisteringly and took his purse with his hand.

Realistic, skillful, and fast-moving, it looks like he is not a hungry child forced by life, but a trained professional thief.

Caesar glanced at the two children who quickly disappeared into the corner of the alley, and did not stop it, if it was other dragons who were stolen gold coins, they would definitely be furious and roar on the spot, and then start to breathe, but for the black dragon, money is just a number without a concept, although he also likes these golden things, but not to the level of pathological obsession of other dragons.

He continued to walk forward, only taking this matter as a small episode in the itinerary, and did not pay attention to it, after all, with a money bag containing dozens of gold coins like this, there were too many of his psionic spaces to count.

After a few steps, he heard a small commotion in the street market behind him, and four guards in steel armor and knights' swords pinned to their waists caught up with him, carrying the two thieves who had fled before like chickens.

"How dare you openly steal property, you bugs, don't you take the laws of the empire into account?"

The leading captain of the guard stopped, motioned to the guards behind him to throw the two children on the ground, and then leaned slightly towards Caesar: "Lord Long, we have been arresting these unscrupulous thieves, according to their confessions, this is your money bag. ”

As he spoke, the captain of the guard handed over the money bag that Caesar had just been stolen.

Unexpectedly, there was a follow-up, Caesar was successfully attracted to attention, he borrowed money, didn't count, and asked directly: "What are you going to do with these criminals?" ”

"First they are thrown into the dungeon, then they are interrogated through the dungeon, and finally they are ...... according to what they have done."

"Execute them." Caesar said expressionlessly.

"If, after questioning, they are indeed guilty of an unpardonable crime, we will ...... it"

"I say, now, kill them!" Caesar's tone hardened.

"I'm afraid not now, we don't have the right to ...... without it" The guard captain explained, if he doesn't explain, he is not an ordinary dragon man at first glance, and he has the characteristics of the direct blood of the Black King in many places, most likely a guy from a privileged clan, in case it is a real dragon.

"Do you want me to do it myself?" Caesar took a step forward, his claws open, and the crowd of onlookers withdrew at once.

"Lord Dragon, according to the law, no one has the right to deprive another citizen of the empire of his life without authorization, even if he is guilty." The captain of the guard lowered his head a little, but did not get out of the way: "If you do this, Governor Margosus will be displeased, and His Highness Odin will not want to see this scene." ”

The two guards behind him also stepped forward two steps, blocking the child, while silently reaching out and grasping the hilt of their swords.

At this moment, another guard, who looked a little older, suddenly moved, he turned around, kicked at each of the two thieves, cursed and pressed their heads to Caesar: "Don't hurry up and beg for mercy, beg for forgiveness from Lord Dragon." ”

The two children trembled and choked with tears and said, "My lord, please forgive us...... We don't dare anymore, we don't dare anymore. ”

"His Royal Highness Odin......" Caesar ignored them, grinned at the captain of the guard, bared his fangs, and released a little majesty belonging to the dragon: "It was His Highness Odin who ordered me to inspect Garanord. Soldiers, listen to my orders, and now immediately execute these two criminals. ”

"I'm sorry, sir."

The guard pursed his lips, he felt his legs weaken again, but he had reached this point, there was no reason to retreat now, he was determined to simply carry it to the end, and then the accountability would be said later, still maintaining a motionless posture: "Unless you can prove your identity, we still can't carry out the order." ”

Caesar looked at him for a moment, and his momentum suddenly retracted: "You...... Not bad. After saying that, he staggered past the captain of the guard and left: "Throw them into the dungeon." ”

The captain of the guard looked at the back of the dragonman leaving, and then exhaled the breath he had been holding, wiped his sweat, and ordered his companions to take the two child thieves away.
