Chapter Forty-Six: The End of the Cold City (Part II)

Lilith is a very good woman from a human point of view, not to mention her gold-level strength. It is said that the character is a good wife and mother internally, and she is kind and loves the people externally. The people of Cold City talked about her more often than the city lord.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with the dragon, and that just explains why Lilith bought a few cartloads of supplies from the red dragon's claws for the sake of the victims.

Because Cold City was now in name only, Lilith handed over a large amount of gold coins from a small vault nearby to the Red Dragon, far exceeding the value of a few carts of supplies.

After getting the gold coin, Ember couldn't close his mouth happily, and asked casually, "What are your plans next?"

"The city is gone, and when this is over, I'm ready to lead the survivors to the Gondor Empire. Lilith said disheartenedly.

The red dragon nodded, left the supplies behind and left, continuing to walk towards the target. But the speed was much slower, because from time to time the red dragon would be tempted to stop and gouge through the rubble the glittering knick-knickkks that the dragon loved. The dragon's nose is very sharp, and it is easy to smell gold.

More than an hour passed, and the red dragon had only walked a kilometer, and the little snake on its head finally couldn't bear it anymore: "Why didn't I see that you were so greedy before? ”

The red dragon, who carefully picked at a gold coin that had fallen through a gap, did not have the slightest intention of stopping the search, and naturally replied, "Is there any difference between me and other dragons? ”

"That's not what I meant! Forget it, it's useless to reason with you big lizards. The little snake said angrily, changed to a comfortable position and continued to lie on his stomach.

"Watch your words, little earthworm. The red dragon finally got the gold coin: "Okay, then I won't pick up the silver coins on the road for the rest of the way." ”

So, the caravan that stumbled into the cold city saw a red dragon pouting and rummaging through the ruins in the distance.

"Ember, what is it doing there?" said Rita, the mercenary at the front, muttered strangely.

"Maybe he's saving people, right?" Kit, who has a crush on dragons, always thinks on the bright side.

"Snort. The sharp-eyed Berwyn said disdainfully: "Don't you see that it is the ruins of a golden bank, this dragon must be digging for treasures." ”

Following the direction of his finger, many people saw the signboard with the word "Jinxing" falling at the feet of the red dragon.

At this moment, the red dragon suddenly slowly retreated, and everyone on the side of the dragon clearly saw a teary-eyed child on one of the red dragon's claws.

"This ......" felt the strange stares of the people around him, and Berwyn was speechless.

......

Rewind time by a few minutes.

"This is it. "After picking up more than a hundred gold coins, the red dragon finally arrived at the location of the spell guide.

Effortlessly cutting through the rubble bricks that stood in his way, the red dragon soon found the body of a man in dragon skin soft armor underneath.

Dragonskin soft armor has the best protection against sword slashes, but unfortunately it has little effect when facing collapsed houses.

The red dragon stretched out its claws to grab the corpse that was kneeling on one knee facing the corner, and tried to take off the inner armor of the dragon skin, but was a little surprised to find a young boy a few years old tightly in the arms of the corpse.

The little boy was in good spirits, and he cried in fright when he saw a huge face appear in front of him, but the man's body was already stiff, and he couldn't move when he hugged the ground.

The red dragon hesitated, stretched out its sharp claws and cut off the corpse's arm, then carefully picked up the little boy and set it aside.

Ember took great pains to cut the body into several pieces before removing the inner armor of the dragon's skin, and looked at the little boy who was still crying. After putting away the inner armor, the red dragon thought about it, so he spat out a ball of fire and cremated the man's body.

Holding up the little boy, Ember retreated from the rubble, noticing the familiar scent and turning his head to the right.

and a group of people from the caravan who had not been seen for a few days looked at each other one by one, staring at them all and lowering their heads. The red dragon walked over to them and said, "I just happened to meet you, and this little child will be handed over to you to take care of, no problem, right?"

Rita stepped forward and hugged the weeping little boy from the dragon's claws, and then heard the red dragon say, "His family probably didn't survive." ”

Kit couldn't help but ask, "How did this disaster happen?"

The red dragon snorted and said angrily: "The city lord of Cold City wants to take revenge on his enemy, and in order to gain power, he didn't know how to get a dragon artifact that was scattered on the mainland, and then somehow obtained the power inside. As a result, the power was lost by gaining intelligence, and he turned into a terrifying dragon and destroyed his city......"

Ember was simple, but it was an eye-opener for the audience, and when they added fuel and vinegar to others and passed it on, they didn't know how many versions would eventually be conjured.

“...... The void has the strength to approach the Sanctuary, but what is the use of losing its intelligence? It's not that our three gold-level dragons have taken it away. Ember bragged endlessly, completely unaware of being a mere silver-level person.

After telling the story, the red dragon generously answered the questions of several lucky people, and finally said, "If there is nothing to do, I will leave." ”

Jolien, who had been silent for a while, suddenly said, "Lord Ember, with all due respect, I don't know if the villain can invite you to the ...... next month."

"No thanks, goodbye. Ember also felt strange, and the more she came into contact with her, the more she felt that this businessman with a big nose and small eyes became more and more unpleasant. Although his attitude was good, Red Dragon chose to trust his instincts and did not want to deal with this merchant too much.

There is a saying that mercy is not in charge of the army and is not in business. When a businessman talks to you about friendship and morality, it is better to keep a lot of eyes.

Finally, he sneaked a look at Jolien and saw that he was still smiling, and Ember couldn't help but believe in his instincts again, if Jolien showed an unhappy or other expression at this time, the red dragon might let down a little bit of vigilance.

Flapping its wings and flying into the sky, the red dragon noticed that many people were waving goodbye to him, so he also let out a long groan in response.

Ember turned around and looked down at the city below that had been reduced to nothing. It's the second time I've come to Cold City, but it should be the last time I've come. The first time I came I was just passing by, but this time it was indirectly brought destruction.

The next moment, the red dragon turned around and disappeared into the sky in a red light.
