【West Azlan Empire・Brown Town】

Donghyuck's forehead was covered with a fine layer of sweat. His face looked flushed, as if he had been steaming in an underground hot spring cavern for an hour.

Although the town of Brown is the territory of Yaslan, in fact, judging from the appearance of the entire town, there is no Yaslan style at all. Everywhere there were simple houses made of hard earth walls, and there were no tiled roofs above the houses, and most of them were roof shelves made of woven tree branches, which were covered with wide palm leaves, and the palm leaves covered the roof in layers, and the gaps between the leaves could ensure air circulation, otherwise the temperature in the house would have been dehydrated quickly in a dry and hot place like Browntown. At the same time, the palm leaves are soaked in olive oil and then dried, so when the rain washes away, the water droplets roll down the eaves like glass beads, and do not leak due to infiltration.

Galanz wore a shoulder-length vest, the most common among local residents, with a large open neckline, so that his strong and beautiful arm muscles and broad chest muscles were exposed, reflecting a sexy and healthy wheat complexion in the light of torches and oil lamps. With a straw stalk in his mouth, he tilted his head and looked at Donghyuck a little sadly.

"I said, are you really not hot? You don't look good. Galanz looked sadly at Donghyuk, who was sitting precariously, he was still wearing the wide robe he wore when he set off from Grant, and the button at the neckline was buttoned all the way to the top, looking as serious and serious as a priest, but his face was already red, and he looked uncomfortably hot, "Don't you really consider changing your clothes?"

"The clothes here don't quite fit. Dong Hyuk grimaced and licked his dry lips, "I'd rather be hotter than show my arms and legs like you." ”

"I bare-chested and bare-armed, I admit it, how can I show my legs? My pants are almost up to my knees, okay?

"Ouch hey......" Donghyuk's temples jumped suddenly, his gaze quickly retracted from Galanz's wide trouser tube, as if he had seen something dirty, and closed his eyes vigorously, "Can you wear a pair of pants inside!"

"It's too hot, it will affect my development, I'm still a teenager, I'm growing my body. Galanz picked up the wheat stalk in his mouth, pointed at Donghyuk and said, "I don't care if you're afraid of the heat or not, but I promise that as soon as you go out like this, you will be watched." Being watched is a trivial matter, but if it causes a border dispute, it can be a problem. And you're still royal, do you think it's more humiliating to show your arms and legs, or is it more humiliating to be sent back to Grant by the border guards? ”

Donghyuk took a deep breath, his face was a little ugly, and obviously, he was a little shaken.

Galanz floated to him cheaply, and handed over a pile of brown coarse cloth clothes in his hand: "Come, close your eyes, grit your teeth, and it's over." ”

Donghyuk looked at Galanz directly, then snorted very angrily in his throat, reached out and grabbed his clothes, then turned and walked behind the cabinet in the corner.

"It's just a change of clothes, and you have to hide behind the cupboard, do you have a tail behind your buttocks, or do you have six toes?" Galanz leaned over, peeked into the corner of the wall, and just poked his head out, he hit a transparent wall with a bang.

A cold snort came from the corner of the wall: "I knew it." ”

Galanz stretched out his hand and touched the transparent air shield erected in front of him in the air, a little unwilling: "Hmph, you just rely on me not to bully people with a gas shield, let me tell you, when I return to the Fog Hidden Green Island, I will immediately find Wang Jue to teach me, and I will ...... you when the time comes" Galanz suddenly stopped talking, and looked at Donghyuk who came out from behind the cabinet in the corner with his eyes.

Dong Hyuk wore a sleeveless jacket with his chest and abs exposed, looking like a pied piper playing snake on the street. He was barefoot on the mud, and his whole face looked very serious and awkward.

Galanz bent down and laughed wildly: "Donghyuk, don't worry, I promise not to tell others that you look like a little cow, your skin is a little too white, this is like the skin of a gentleman, this is the little princess who never basks in the sun and grows up in the palace." ”

"My father-in-law, your uncle!" Dong Hyuk jumped a green tendon on his forehead, then turned around and walked out of the small earthen house without saying a word.

Galanz rubbed his sore stomach and followed, panting and shouting while laughing: "You wait for me." ”

The streets were packed with people.

Everyone is rushing in the same direction.

Galanz and Donghe mingled in the crowd and walked forward with everyone. The destination of the flow of people is very uniform, and everyone is heading to the square on the west side of town, where the first touring circus is about to begin.

This circus is very famous and has been touring between several cities on the eastern border of Yaslan, but they don't perform very often, so basically only once a year can be taken in a city. So every year the tour is like a small festival for Brown.

Behind a wooden cart full of various equipment, Galanz and Donghe Cat looked towards the huge tent that had been set up improvised.

Galanz nodded thoughtfully, and then said to Donghyuk seriously: "Donghyuk, wait a minute, you use the Wind Source Soul Technique to create a sandstorm, the climate here is dry, the ground is full of yellow sand, I believe that everyone's vision will be temporarily obscured, I will take advantage of this short time to jump on the roof of the tent, do you see the round hole on the top, I will enter from there." You're waiting at the door to pick me up, and I should be able to bring the silver dust out in a few minutes. ”

"Why should I waste my soul power?" Donghyuk turned his head and looked at Galanz coldly.

"Because Gilgamesh told us not to cause any commotion! Of course I know that with the strength of the two of us, it will be fine to blow these hundreds and thousands of people into the sky in an instant, but how striking is that, can't you put aside some of your pride for a while? You royals are always so vain. Vanity cannot be eaten, and it should be bowed when it is time to bow down. ”

"In this world, there is a thing ......," Donghyuk looked at Galanz coldly, "it's called 'money'." ”

Galanz: "......"

After speaking, Donghyuk walked elegantly towards the door of the tent, he walked up to the middle-aged strong man with a beard at the door, and took out a few silver coins: "Two tickets, one for me and one for my groom." After speaking, he turned his head and looked elegantly at Galanz, who followed him with an unhappy face.

Galanz raised his hand, pointed at himself, with an incredible expression, his eyes widened, and he asked Donghyuk silently with his mouth: "I, yes, Ma, husband?"

Donghyuk: "Is the horse on a leash?"

Galanz scolded his mother in his heart, and then showed a bright smile: "It's tied." ”

Donghyuk looked at Galanz's deflated expression, and his smile stretched even more: "Well, you poor children, haven't you ever seen the circus?

Galanz's row of snow-white teeth was about to be broken: "Open...... Happy ......"

"Then come in with me. Satisfied, Donghyuk turned and walked into the tent.

"Donghyuk, I'll tell Wang Jue when I go back, you ......" Galanz muttered, and suddenly bumped into Donghyuk in front of him, I don't know why, Donghyuk just walked into the tent and stopped. Galanz looked at his back, although he couldn't see his face, but judging from his tense body, Galanz also knew that something was not quite right.

He stepped forward and stood side by side with Donghyuk, he followed Donghyuk's line of sight to look ahead, and then, his face became solemn.

At the other entrance opposite, a group of people dressed in dark red tights were walking into the tent. Their faces were tattooed with red tattoos of various patterns, and the skin on their hands was visibly red as if they had been scalded by boiling water.

"The people of the fire source ......," Galanz whispered.

"Don't act rashly. Donghyuk lowered his voice, then pulled Galanz over, and in the potential crowd, silently sat down in the back rows of seats.

Galanz sat down on the wooden bench in the arc, and he turned his head to look at Donghyuck, whose face was extremely serious.

Galanz understands his concerns, although the town of Brownfall is nominally part of the territory of Aslan, in fact, over the years, the town has basically been controlled by the people of the fire source, who control the town's trade, crop sales, and border crossing...... Basically, the town of Brown has been turned into a colony of fire.

This is actually related to the geographical environment of Brown Town, the entire town is almost on the edge of the Gobi Desert, which is dry and hot all year round, and water is scarce, and the soul magicians of the water source are basically in pain here. So, very few people in the soul world were willing to live in this town. In addition, there is a hidden magma river underneath the town, and the hot magma continues to circulate underground, and the hot magma river was still far away from the town a few decades ago, however, with the expansion of the underground cracks, the hot magma gradually penetrated into the underground of the town, so the town became more unsuitable for people with water sources. The geography of Brown Town is increasingly being transformed into a fire-source landform, and more and more fire-source soul magicians are moving from the border. As a result, it has also become a frontier place that has been semi-abandoned by Yaslan.

The audience gradually filled. A melodious flute sounded in the tent.

The noisy spectators gradually fell silent with the sound of the flute.

On the top of the tent, there was a sudden metallic click.

Galanz raised his head, and a rusty metal cage slowly descended from the top of the tent.

The cage lands in the center of the circular field and looks like a giant birdcage.

Everyone held their breath and waited for what would happen next, and there was a burning anticipation in their eyes.

At this moment, the curtain at the end of the tent was lifted, and an iron door slowly opened at the cage facing the curtain. Looks like something is going into this cage.

Galanz and Donghyuk looked behind the curtain and waited.

A pair of skinny feet, stepping on the hot yellow sand ground. The white ankles looked very thin, Galanz raised his head, attracted by those ice blue eyes, there was no emotion in those eyes, they looked cold, like a frozen sea. A young girl with braided hair slowly walks into a rusty iron cage. Her hair is a rare silver-gray color that looks like pure silver with a psychedelic glow. Her eyelashes were slender and soft, her face was handsome, and at the same time there was a firmness like a teenager, and she did not look like a girl in the slightest. Her lips were thin and soft, and she was biting her lower lip slightly, looking a little nervous.

"Silver Dust?" Galanz's eyes widened, he turned his head to look at Dong Hyuk with a confused expression, "Silver Dust is a woman?"

Before Donghyuk could answer, the dead audience suddenly erupted in a frenzied cheer, and everyone's faces showed a bloodthirsty excitement.

Galanz turned her head, the silver-haired girl was already standing quietly in the center of the iron cage, her body was slender but thin, and at this moment, in the cage with her, there was also a [wolf spotted lizard] more than two meters tall and covered with sharp blades. It spat out its bright red tongue, drenched with venom and shimmering with it. (To be continued.) )
