Red dragon: in charge of natural disasters

Reluctantly taking one last look at that warm scene, George left the brightly lit street and turned into a dark and narrow alley - that was the only way to his residence.

Suddenly, a strange voice stopped him.

"etc."

Cold sweat suddenly broke out on George's face. He thought of some terrible rumors: It is said that there is a "black market" in the darkness of the kingdom, where ogres and adults from the hobgoblin family gather to secretly sell some human organs. , flesh and blood, and feasting on them, which would never be legal in normal times.

Did he run into the rumored black marketeer?

George wanted to run away, but his feet were like lead. He could only turn his head stiffly and said tremblingly: "Don't, don't catch me."

In a daze, he saw a man in a robe not far away. He could not tell whether he was a man or a woman. He was roughly the same size as him. At least he was not an ogre or a hobgoblin.

George then breathed a sigh of relief.

The mysterious man's tone was quite kind, and he just asked him: "Don't be afraid, I am not a claw of the evil dragon. Are you a resident of North Wind Castle?"

George scratched his head in confusion.

"I guess so. Anyway, I live here every day. You know the 'Giant Smart Man' food processing factory in Nancheng District, I work there."

The mysterious man actually handed him a few silver coins and continued to ask: "So, can you tell me about the situation here in detail?"

George was suddenly pleasantly surprised, with deep joy on his face. He did not expect that there would be a windfall of money.

He quickly stuffed the few precious silver coins into his clothes, fearing that the person in front of him would regret it, and said repeatedly:

"Of course, of course."

This is a silver coin, the salary he can get after working for several months!

And if George could see through this robe, he would be amazed by the exquisite facial features and elegant temperament under the hood - this so-called mysterious man is the organizer of the Arcane Monastery, Myhrvold The young silver dragon, Olivia, known as "Silver Stars".

Several years have passed, and the Arcane Hermitage has grown stronger, but she has never seen the golden dragon Angel.

Although he was quite sad and depressed, the young silver dragon mage could only guess that this righteous fellow golden dragon might have been caught or even brutally killed.

Olivia decided to inquire about the information first and find out the situation in the city.

"Do you think your life is better or worse than before?"

George smiled honestly.

"I don't know either. I used to be a farmer in Master Brad's manor. I didn't have enough to eat every day. My parents died early. Our master fell down a few years ago. I heard from the adults in the kingdom that His Majesty Cassius 'liberated' us, and I was able to come to Beifeng Castle."

At this point, George scratched his head sheepishly.

"But I think it should be better. Now I work in a food processing factory. I am very tired every day, but at least I can fill my stomach. Last winter, none of the workers in the factory died of hunger. This is rare to see in a manor. "

"Well you're asking where the food comes from?"

"The big guys in the kingdom used wonderful magic to create a thing. They named it 'energy filler', but we usually call it 'paste'. This kind of thing doesn't have much taste, but It was very filling. The first time I had a full meal was in the factory cafeteria.”

He seemed to have thought of something and said in a joking tone:

"There was a co-worker who just escaped from the manor. He had never seen so much food. The first time he came here, he ate ten pounds of paste and almost died there."

Olivia was a little surprised, this was very different from what she had imagined.

In the picture she envisioned, the people of Beifeng Castle should already be filled with resentment and wailing.

You must know that with the greed and tyranny of red dragons, the places they rule will generally be brutally exploited. Moreover, in the poems and novels of the nobles of the North, the Kingdom of Burning Ember is also described as like a devil's cave in hell.

Even she is bound to have some preconceptions.

As a silver dragon who has lived in the North for a long time and mixed with human society, Olivia has some understanding of the cruel serfdom in the North and has some criticisms about it.

But as an outsider, Olivia was reminded by the clan elders that she could not interfere in human society at will. She could only sympathize with these large numbers of "gray animals" and occasionally give charity.

Unexpectedly, this red dragon would use precious magic resources to carry out production and even liberate serfs. This was really unimaginable to Olivia.

Bahamut is on top, that’s a red dragon!

As a racial enemy, the Silver Dragon knows this terrifying five-color dragon best.

Completely different from the silver dragon clan's closeness to humanoid creatures, red dragons despise everything and often regard humans and elves as delicious snacks. Even the people under their rule are only worthy of being used as spare food and cannon fodder. .

Olivia believes that the "King of Burning Embers" is not so hopeless.

But maybe.

Does he have a bigger plan?

Thinking of this, Olivia continued to inquire for information.

"You mean His Majesty Cassius? I have never seen him. I heard that he has been sleeping recently, but for a dragon, this should be normal. Although there are some other rumors circulating, it seems that he has not yet After eating people, those guys who spread rumors were also arrested by Nocturne people. "

Speaking of Nocturne, George couldn't help but shrink his neck.

"We workers with no status don't know much about the views of those big shots. We mainly know about His Majesty through the "Kingdom Daily". What did you say in that paragraph?"

"Oh, that's it. His Majesty Cassius is the great 'loving father' of both the country and his subjects. He broke the old order with his majestic power and created a new order in the Burning Ember Kingdom. He established strict rules with his steely wrist. The standardized "Kingdom Code" allows all citizens to have equal status before the law, enables humans and their families to live in harmony, and also prevents those high-ranking nobles from oppressing us at will. "

George almost blurted out the words, and said this passage very smoothly and in a cadence, as if he was reciting lines.

After all, Kingdom Daily has to repeat these words boasting about the red dragon almost every day, and propaganda through various channels are constantly praising its virtues.

He and his co-workers were almost scratching their ears from hearing it, but their memories were indeed profound, even to the point of forming conditioned reflexes.

Olivia frowned slightly.

It seems that the rule of the red dragon has become more and more entrenched in this land and is difficult to shake. If she wanted to resist, she couldn't even find suitable allies.

"how could be……"

Thinking of the missing golden dragon, Olivia felt an inexplicable indignation in her heart: How could a guy who harmed the righteous like this be a qualified ruler?

But when she heard George's rather sincere words, she was a little speechless and couldn't even find anything to refute.

Even the silver dragon had to admit that for these serfs with miserable origins, the rule of the red dragon might have really changed their lives for the better.

After hesitating for a moment, Olivia couldn't help but ask:

"Could it be...that no one resisted him?"

I'm under review again. Wait a minute. I vomited.
