Chapter 107: The Town of Redier (Part I)
"If the map is correct, this should be the town of Rydier," said Ember who had spent a few more days flying from Dragon Island to the mainland, hovering in the air as he looked at a small town that appeared in the distance.
"I still don't understand why you're here. The little snake lying on top of the red dragon's head said with interest.
"Kitt says the town is especially welcoming to dragons, and I want to see what kind of welcome it is," Afterflame explained.
"Then you don't have to be in such a hurry, you haven't been injured in the forest battle for miles. Xiaolan was a little helpless.
"Ahh
"Please, now that you're so big, I'm still so small, I can't squeeze me dry if you cure you all. The little snake said angrily: "No matter, you can go if you like, I'll sleep." ”
"You have a point, and I'm speechless. The red dragon rolled his eyes: "Go to sleep, you don't have a role in this chapter anyway." ”
......
The town of Redier is a barren town on a desert plain in the middle of the Danxia landscape, but it is actually very wealthy. Because the town was built on the edge of the largest water source in the vicinity, and the mountains not far away contain a large number of precious mineral veins! There was still a large surplus of minerals after they were handed over to the empire, so everyone in the town was very wealthy.
This rich town was naturally targeted by many bandits, but they couldn't help the few silver-level wurms guarding the town, and several attacks were repelled by the townspeople and wurm.
The town also has good animal husbandry, enough to feed hundreds of people or ten wurms. Therefore, several silver-level wurms that were well served were very serious about protecting the town and living in peace with the enthusiastic townspeople.
But everyone knows that if there is a gold-level powerhouse between Reddirtown and the bandits, it will generate overwhelming power and overturn the situation that has been stalemate for decades.
......
The red dragon in the air flew close to the town to take a look, wow, sure enough, this town likes dragons very much, and in front of the small building that looks like the mayor's mansion at the end of the main road, there is a big dragon statue standing impressively, which looks like a golden dragon. Looking closer, Ember immediately recognized that the statue was actually made of 24-karat pure gold!
The red dragon's saliva almost flung out of the corner of its mouth, but it was able to suck it back, as it noticed that many people below had already spotted itself approaching.
"Dragon!" "A red dragon!" "Come out and see!" The seemingly silent town soon boiled over, and dozens of people soon ran out of the street, all looking at the red dragon in the air with excited expressions, and not a single one pointed or made a loud noise.
When Yu Yan saw it, it was really different, compared to the town of Garas that he went to before, it was simply a heaven and a place, so the red dragon landed at the entrance of the town with confidence.
"Hello, I heard about this town from a mercenary, so I came to see it. The red dragon said with a wave of his paw at them.
"May I ask you are Lord Ember, the guardian dragon of the Empire?" a well-dressed old man with a white beard stepped out of the crowd and asked the red dragon respectfully.
"I didn't expect my name to be here. The red dragon's eyes lit up.
"Ha, Lord Ember, please sit inside, we are going to have a big party tonight!" said the old man with a bright face. Then the surrounding townsfolk quickly moved out of the way.
The town's main road was very wide, and Ember thought that even if his mother came, he would be able to tolerate it if he was careful to fold his wings and not flick his tail. The thirty-meter-long red dragon still looks spacious when walking on it, which shows that these townspeople have put a lot of effort into entertaining the dragon.
At first, Ember grinned at the townsfolk on either side, but soon his eyes fell on the golden dragon statue that was getting closer and closer.
"Lord Ember, this statue is for Lord Aristod, the golden dragon who helped us build Reddy's Town, I wonder if you know him?" explained the old man who trotted along beside him.
“...... What?" Afterburn heard the words clearly, a little unable to believe his ears. Is it a collision? Unlikely, there are only a few hundred dragons, and the probability of all golden dragons hitting the name is infinitely close to zero!
The red dragon quickly dispels the temptation of gold and carefully ponders the ten-meter-long statue. But no matter how you look at it, you can't associate this clear-eyed, domineering dragon statue with the dragon king on Dragon Island who is nested in a cave, has a lot of beard, and is cunning and cunning.
Seeing the red dragon's expression, the old man's eyes showed a few expressions of hope: "My lord, do you know Lord Aristod......?
"Recognize. Ember nodded and interrupted him, the red dragon wanted to ask the old man if he had misremembered the name, but thinking about it, there was also a golden dragon who had used the name of Aristod, so the red dragon changed his words and said, "It's doing well on Dragon Island." ”
"Good, good, good. The old man said three good words in a row, and then waved his hand to the left side of the intersection: "Lord Ember, please come here." ”
The red dragon glanced at the statue reluctantly, and then followed the instructions towards the fork in the road on the left.
Eventually, Ember landed in a beautiful courtyard under the old man's lead, and then the old man turned to the townsfolk hanging not far behind him, "Do you know what to do now?"
Hearing this, the townspeople looked at each other for a moment, and then they all fell silent and left with different expressions.
Although he was quiet on the surface, the red dragon's vigilance had not been relaxed, and it was not ruled out that these townsfolk would do the same thing that the forest people had done in the previous chapters. After seeing this scene, he increased his vigilance, but so far no traces of the ambush have been found, so Ember still has to see what these people are doing, because the strongest of these townspeople is the strength of this old man, and he does not pose any threat to himself.
"Lord Ember, we'd like to ask you for a favor. The old man looked embarrassed and said to the red dragon who was lying down and looking at him, "Our town has been harassed by bandits, and it has become more frequent recently, I know this request is very abrupt, but we have a lot of gold. ”
The red dragon rolled his eyes: "Is it a lot of the statue outside?"
"No, the one that can't move. The old man said without hesitation.
Just when the red dragon felt a little uncomfortable, the townsfolk came back one after another, each holding a half-human box in their arms.
As they placed the boxes neatly in front of the red dragon and opened them, Ember's pupils shrank into a slit.
Because these dozens of chests are full of gold coins or bars!
