"Yes, Xingyuan is fair, in the face of competition, we are a backward and conservative race like us, and sooner or later we will be eliminated."

The white dragon lowered his head and looked at the reflection in the cup:

"But this is my countryman."

"I know that we are backward, weak, pedantic, and there is a lot of discrimination within us, but ......"

She looked around at the restaurant diners, who were bustling with people and bustling with each other.

"This is, our race, we speak the same language, our ancestors are buried here, and the youth shed their blood here. Even if we are doomed to ruin...... I'm really, reluctantly. ”

"What race and civilization would bear to see everything about itself destroyed, ravaged, lost and humiliated?"

She said, looking at the other tables in the dining room:

"The trolls over there, their empire was once glorious, and people thought of the trolls' fangs as beautiful, but now they are reduced to reminiscing about the past at the wine table."

"At the banquet at the table in the center, I just heard that it was a respected old dragon who died, and I didn't want everyone to be too sad in the future, so I made a will and used her inheritance to hold a banquet for the neighbors, so that she could see everyone's smiles before returning to the abyss."

"There are also young men and women at the table next to the piano, the bear-man dragon-descendant and the argonian, it seems that it is the first time to participate in the blind date, it is very clumsy, the bear-man dragon-descendant holds the speech, and introduces his conditions, and the argonian girl is bowing her head and using communication skills to communicate with her best friend to let her check ......"

She said it very carefully, and the details of her observations were very in place:

"These things, in fact, are not special, but if we don't have them, all this will be gone."

"I, in fact, are not as delicate and enthusiastic as ordinary dragons, but even so, I feel that even if it is not for the so-called grand narrative, just for the firewood, rice, oil and salt in front of me, I have to fight."

It can be heard that she really rarely communicates with people, especially the opposite sex.

It can be said that she said so much because she was trying very hard to prove to Li Oz that she was very good at communicating and didn't want to admit defeat in front of her.

As for what she said so much, does it make sense?

It doesn't make sense, but the act of saying these things makes sense in itself.

“…… I understand. ”

Li Oz took a sip of his drink.

"And that—huh?"

The white dragon looked at Li Aozi in surprise.

"I understand what you think, I'm sorry, it's that I didn't take into account your feelings, I was too self-assertive, I feel like I've seen the future, as if it's a great thing, in fact, in this world, not only I can foresee it."

Li Oz said sincerely:

"I'm too arrogant."

"No, suddenly I said that, I ......"

The white dragon was at a loss, but Li Aozi had already spoken:

"I'm now converted to the age of a human being, almost in my forties, just past the standard line for middle-aged people, so sometimes I'm old-fashioned, I'm sorry."

"Huh?" The White Dragon Girl was a little confused: "Oh." ”

"It's your turn."

"Me? Am I going to say? ”

The white dragon's fingers interlaced each other for a while, thought about it, and finally said:

"I'm 409 years old now, which is about 22 years old for a human."

"No wonder I feel like a college student."

"I'm just not good at interpersonal communication, if it were in terms of learning magic and combat, I'd be almost 300 years old like a human!"

"Isn't that it," Li Oz almost didn't hold back: "Nerd ......"

“…… Say whatever you want. ”

Bai Long clasped his hands on his chest, leaned back in the chair, and sighed:

"Why should I be so struggling with a stranger sharing a table, and discussing all sorts of abstract issues, it's crazy, I should be focusing on magic and combat skills......"

"Is it possible that you think like this, precisely because you have been highly oppressing your body for a long time, and the stress is too much and has caused mental problems?"

Li Oz commented:

"It seems that the mental state of contemporary college students is worrying, in my era, the papers were just copied casually, and the undergraduate was paddling the whole process, and none of the courses were full-time."

The white dragon shook his head:

"No, my spirit is tenacious, and I am used to it even when I die."

"Well, it's time to take a break."

Li Oz put his hands behind his head, leaned back in his chair, and fully relaxed:

"I used to work and fight day and night, and in the hardest time I didn't rest for almost thirty years, and there were enemies everywhere I could see, and when my weapon was cut off, I grabbed a severed hand and rushed forward, and then what did I get? - The captain was promoted and raised, the salary was paid back, my sword was repaired, and that's it. ”

"I don't think it's about hard work, it's your boss who doesn't talk about it."

The white dragon sighed:

"However, I've been through something similar, and I'm not qualified to correct you...... The meal hasn't come up yet, so I have to finish it quickly, and I have to engrave runes when I go back, and I still have a mission for the night. ”

They tacitly didn't ask about each other's occupations, which may be one of the reasons why the two had a good conversation.

"You've worked so hard." "All I see in you is my shadow. ”

"You're boring." Bai Long retorted, "I don't want to be like you when I'm old. ”

After saying this, the two stopped going toe-to-toe, as if they had reached some kind of non-aggression pact.

Bai Long took out a professional-level math problem from his carry-on bag and began to solve it quickly.

Li Oz looked at her serious calculation and didn't bother, and after a while, he stood up and found the bar: "Boss, can you help mix a drink here?" ”

The boss touched the dragon's beard, patted his big belly and promised:

"Of course, our bartender is a honey-dragon half-blood. Just tell me what you want. ”

"That's good."

Li Oz smiled slightly:

"Cornstarch sugar, carbonated water, caramel, phosphoric acid, caffeine...... Most importantly, add ice. ”

Smack.

The pencil lead shattered, and the White Dragon Maiden sighed, and the ice blade popped out from her fingertips, cutting it skillfully.

The mind is too chaotic, for a strong person of his level, he shouldn't be able to control this kind of power badly.

Recently, my form has been getting worse and worse, perhaps, it is really because I am under too much pressure.

But time is running out, and I have to seize every minute and every second.

"Your plate, please use it slowly."

The waiter served a simple and delicate cold meat meal, which was quickly processed and more in line with Bailong's eating habits.

"Thank you."

The white dragon dropped a few krona as a tip and pushed the exercise.

It's better to eat something and replenish some energy, the weather is too hot, and it is not the best time for you.

"Add some cold food and slow your mind."

She was about to reach for her food when a brownish-black drink with a reddish sheen fell in front of her.

"Huh?"

She raised her head, only to see Li Oz also sitting down with a cup of such a drink, seeing her looking at herself, Li Oz immediately let go of the straw and said:

"Don't rush to eat yet, are you allergic to coffee? If not, how about trying this? ”

"Me."

She shook her head:

"I haven't had a drink......"

"Taste it." Li Aozi instigated: "You may be the first one in this star abyss to drink this drink. ”

The white dragon frowned and looked at the strange liquid in front of him, which was neither brown nor black, and was still bubbling and bubbling.

"I added ice."

Lee Oz says:

"Although it is above extremely high clouds, for Bailong, the weather in Dragon Island is quite hot, and it just so happens that this drink tastes best when it is drunk cold."

The white dragon glanced at him, then pinched the straw and took a small sip.

Grunt......

The feeling in the mouth is a burst of excitement, a large number of bubbles in the mouth quickly burst, the teeth seem to be weakened by acidic substances, if it is an ordinary person will definitely feel a little weird, the taste of this drink is very strange.

But for the dragons......

Syllable.

The white dragon pulled out the straw, threw it away, picked up the glass, and poured it down.

Gollum Boom!

She wiped her mouth, slammed the cup on the table, and looked directly at Li Oz:

"What is this?"

"A carbonated drink that is very popular in other universes."

Li Oz smiled and said:

"I think you're so busy that you barely have time to rest, and I just want to taste it, so I told the owner of the restaurant to make a drink like this, carbonic acid can provide a dense bubble crumble taste, caramel is used to tone color and provide flavor, caffeine can relieve fatigue, and sugar can replenish your energy. I think that's the best place for you. ”

Seeing that the other party did not speak, he asked:

"Okay, right?"

The white dragon looked at Li Oz and said:

"It's a little strange in the mouth, it's unfamiliar, it's not familiar at all, but then there's a burst of freshness, then sweetness, and there's a slight astringency at the end, and after a while, I can feel the wonderful taste in it."

She reached out and touched her chest, as if she was still savoring the taste she had just had.

"I don't know what it is, but I love it."

She asked Leoz:

It feels the same way (Note (1)). What's its name? ”

"Coke."

Li Oz:

"Meaning: Allow pleasure."

Note (1): I used the stalk of "How Steel is Made", and the Russian word Роман borrowed the word Roman (romantic).

In the third chapter of the first part of the original work, Tonya meets Paul with a gift from Victor and falls in love with Paul.

Later, Victor asked if he had finished reading it, but Tonya left it on the lake and replied to Victor: "I have fallen in love with another one, much more interesting than yours." ”

"Who's that author?"

"Anonymous."
