Under the Red Dragon

In the late winter of the eleventh year of the Dragon Era, Bay Stream City, located at the southern end of the Golden Empire, also welcomed its annual lively atmosphere.

Although this city, chosen and built by the bronze dragon Alina, is not as vast as major cities like the Golden City due to the small initial population and terrain limitations, it still possesses a unique style.

Surrounded by layered plains, mountains, and rivers, Bay Stream City's eastern side is nourished by perennial waterfalls flowing down from the high plains, making this land fertile and abundant with water and grass, a rare place for settlements and communal living.

Its originally remote location has been compensated by the Golden River flowing downstream and the transportation networks gradually built between the major cities of the empire.

Every few days, many ships from the Royal Capital and the Golden City follow the canals diligently dug day and night by the lich-driven bone legions, turning into the main channel of the Golden River and flowing downstream.

Bringing new immigrants, enthusiastic merchants, curious adventurers, traveling bards, and large quantities of traded goods to the remote Bay Stream City.

On land, not only are there gradually widening horse trails, but also the tracks that have begun to be built within the Golden Empire in recent years have also been extended to Bay Stream City. In fact, the magic steam train track from Bay Stream City to the Golden City was the first to be built and operated.

Now, magic steam trains are rumbling back and forth between the major cities of the empire, contributing the greatest value to achieving a closer connection between the major cities of the empire.

The foundation of the empire's industrial development, its significance lies in this, not just for greater convenience.

The blue dragon Carlyte stood at the top of the executive mansion of Bay Stream City, built against the mountain, the former city lord's fortress, overlooking the green hills, clear waters, people coming and going, sailboats racing, and land traffic, all of which were taken into her eyes as a human woman.

This allowed the blue dragon Carlyte to become accustomed to this kind of life. After dealing with the mountain of accumulated affairs, the city's peace and development were the best stimulant for the ruler.

Every city in the empire has a resident dragon, and the current Bay Stream City is under the command of the blue dragon Carlyte, who handles the highest affairs.

As for the former bronze dragon city lord Alina, due to her outstanding work ability, she was burdened with an even heavier responsibility by the ancestral red dragon.

Among the later dragons who joined the dragon group, the blue dragon Carlyte's ability did not seem particularly outstanding, even somewhat mediocre, but she was still the first dragon among the later dragons to be entrusted with important tasks.

Although in front of the ancestral red dragon, the status of the dragons seemed equal, the closeness and distance in their hearts always existed in the hearts of every living being, and even dragons could not avoid it.

Although the usually lazy blue dragon Carlyte did not think this was a good decision for herself.

But from the ancestral red dragon's behavior, it could be seen that the red dragon was using various behaviors, either guiding or semi-compulsory, to force the dragons in the dragon group to slowly change their habits and make them take it for granted.

Karon believed that every dragon in the dragon group, except for the white dragon Camid, had the potential to become a passable ruler, enough to share many of his affairs.

In the eyes of the ancestral red dragon, these dragons were more useful tools than any race, always full of energy, and it was no problem even if they worked non-stop for several months.

The inheritance from the dragon blood and the innate intelligence allowed these dragons to have great potential, provided that they only needed to slightly change the habits flowing in their blood.

"Stop looking, you look at it several times a day. Sometimes I even think that if the male dragon Aketz appeared in front of you now, you wouldn't put down your city and have a secret rendezvous with your lover," said the green dragon Ellie, whose humanoid form was a beautiful girl with wavy long hair, but a pair of emerald green vertical pupils made the girl's style seem somewhat obscure, like a beautiful flower containing poison, tempting and dangerous.

The green dragon Ellie was a wild dragon. After joining the dragon group, she became close to the blue dragon Carlyte. Although these dragons had not yet been entrusted with important responsibilities by the emperor of the empire, they had the power to observe politics.

The ancestral red dragon's intentions had long been understood in the dragon group. After sending the black dragon Rosani into the newly opened world, the dragons of the dragon group, perhaps except for the white dragon Camid, who argued with him daily, had full expectations for their future.

Akania World was the homeland of the Golden Empire, the nest of ten thousand dragons, and the main base of the dragons. And the dragons in the dragon nest were the tentacles spread by the empire's emperor, the extended limbs, spreading to other planes.

Perhaps when deciding on the imperial system, not only did he not grant the empire's dragons feudal territories, but he also allowed the dragons to maintain the title of lord, that ancestral red dragon had already thought of this step.

The lords of the dragons, their territories were not in the Akania World. Their territories were planes opened up one by one.

Because the green dragon Antajena had already been formally recognized by the empire's dragon emperor within the dragon group, in the open of the empire, under the name of her Green Field Lord.

It was just that the emperor of the empire had not yet officially issued the decree of canonization to the green dragon Antajena.

But now the green dragon Antajena, although she did not have the illustrious title of Red King of the Red Dragon Kleinaia, nor the title of Black King of the Black Dragon Rosani, the title of Green Field Lord made every dragon in the dragon group perform very hard.

In addition to the green dragon Ellie, the white dragon Sloka and the white dragon Roni were also actively undertaking more affairs, greatly sharing the burden of the dragons, allowing the emperor of the empire to now have ample free time to play a show of sharing joy with the people and leisure time with the awakened pixie Raven.

While other dragons were busy with smoke coming out of their scales, the emperor of the empire was still running around in the empire's gambling houses with the pixie, slaughtering all sides by cheating.

"No, maybe it's just like what the mist dragon Deniro often says, in the long life of a dragon, you always need to find some meaningful things as your goal to make your existence more real!"

The blue dragon Carlyte's slender fingers gently picked up the wine glass placed on the castle railing. The wine in the glass was a top-quality drink transported from the distant southern continent - Odysseus' Brew.

It is said that this wine originated in ancient times, when a human hero, Odysseus, accidentally entered the cave of a Cyclops during an adventure and faced the danger of death.

So Odysseus mobilized his followers to collect a wild grape that grew around the Cyclops' cave, and used his hands and feet to trample and squeeze the grapes, brewing them into wine, and getting the ferocious Cyclops drunk, and then escaped the giant's clutches.

Regardless of whether these legends originated from fabrication, this expensive wine was just a daily consumable in the eyes of the dragons.

"But how could you bear to climb down from the Tree of Life," the blue dragon Carlyte said, taking a sip of the wine, with a hint of sarcasm, "You green dragons are always particularly interested in green places, like uncivilized wild dragons, oh, I said something wrong, you were originally a wild dragon."

As a green dragon, they are naturally fond of nesting in forests, especially among the crowns of huge ancient trees. The Tree of Life is an irresistible nesting place for these green dragons, just like the attraction of volcanoes and lava lands to a red dragon.

However, in other cities, the green dragon Ellie would not dare to set foot on the Tree of Life. The other dragons, although they recognized the green dragon Ellie as a member of the dragon group, the Tree of Life was an important asset of the empire, and even Antajena could only occasionally rest on the tree, let alone build a nest on it.

Only Bay Stream City, governed by the blue dragon Carlyte, allowed this green dragon to rest on the Tree of Life for a long time, which was also the relationship established by the two female dragons fighting bloody battles on the battlefield.

The green dragon Ellie smiled so much that her big eyes narrowed. She said, "Carlyte, the mocking words of you blue dragons are simply like a cold joke in the eyes of us green dragons. Besides, I was originally a wild dragon. I am proud to be a member of the High Gomora Dragon Group, but I have never been inferior for being a member of the wild dragons."

"The emperor of the empire has never concealed his past difficulties and hardships. It seems that my thinking is closer to that of the king of the dragons," the green dragon Ellie picked up the remaining half bottle of wine as if she knew it well, gulped it down like drinking water, and then said, "But you, the blue dragon, the former adoptive mother of the emperor, can't understand his thinking. It would be disappointing if others knew."

"Tch," the blue dragon Carlyte didn't hide her attitude and said fiercely, "What's the matter with you? I know your habits. You would never crawl out of your nest without something to do,"

"If you fail to cultivate the second generation of tree species of the Tree of Life on time, I will apply to transfer you away from me when I go back, so that you can never be lazy again."

The green dragon Ellie's face straightened immediately and said, "I do have something, Carlyte. Haven't the patrolling guards reported to you recently that there are more and more wild beasts coming to Bay Stream City?"

"Not only are there a large number of wild beasts, but the number of ferocious species and extraordinary magical beasts is also gradually increasing," the green dragon Ellie said seriously, "Our Bay Stream City guards this important road from south to north, and may soon usher in the impact of the beast tide. Something should be happening in the Godforsaken Mountains. I think we shouldn't be trapped here,"

"But we should take the initiative to send people to investigate the situation along the way, so as to make early preparations for the future possibilities."

The blue dragon Carlyte nodded involuntarily after hearing this. Although there was no wyvern knight group stationed in Bay Stream City, the only fifty wyvern knights who stayed were also conscripted with the departure of the pioneering army.

But there are still some newly tamed and cultivated griffon knights in the city, who can also be sent out as reconnaissance forces.

But before the blue dragon Carlyte could think it through, the giant dragon's vision allowed the two dragons standing on the top of the mountain fortress to discover the smoke and dust rolling in the distant forest, the trees were broken, and the birds were startled and fled in all directions.

Occasionally, huge wild beasts galloped, and their huge figures appeared in the forest, and were detected and noticed by the giant dragon's vision.

"Perhaps something has happened, Carlyte. You are the highest executive officer of Bay Stream City. You are in charge of everything. I'll go take a look first," said the green dragon Ellie, this beautiful girl, speaking lightly and nimbly, jumping over the fence, jumping down from the tall castle, transforming into a giant dragon in mid-air, spreading her wings, soaring up, and flying towards the distance.

Outside the south city of Bay Stream City, the grassland hills and forests and mountains are connected as one. The nearby hills and grasslands have abundant water and grass, which is the pasture where the teenagers in the city like to graze cattle and sheep the most.

Every day, many teenagers drive their own cattle and sheep here, come here in the evening to let the cattle and sheep move around, and carry out the last supplement of food in the day. The teenagers can play and frolic in the mountains and spend their own childhood.

Even though the traces of wild beasts have gradually increased recently, these residents are prosperous in martial arts and regard these wild beasts as rare meat in the family, and compete to hunt them.

Even the teenagers are not afraid of those ordinary wild beasts, except that they have increased their vigilance to prevent the cattle and sheep from being taken away by wild beasts, and then being beaten up by their parents.

But today, it seems that some huge changes have ushered in. When the teenagers were playing by the stream, trees were broken and birds were moving in the forest not far away.

Along with the crackling sound and the slight vibration of the ground, a herd of wild boars first showed their heads, rushing out of the jungle and heading straight for the flat ground.

These wild boars with long fangs are huge in size and are covered with a thick layer of mud armor. Even the most experienced hunters will not easily provoke them, let alone these teenagers.

Following behind the herd of wild boars was a group of mountain deer and swamp cattle, scrambling to rush out of the mountains and forests, as if some fierce beasts were driving them behind them.

But then, several tigers, giant apes, and magic pythons also ran out of the mountains and forests in a panic, running for their lives and knocking down many wild beasts blocking the way.

These predators and beasts in the mountains and forests are now as tired as ordinary wild beasts, and they are being driven away by more terrible existences, fleeing their homes.

Seeing this scene, the teenagers who were still on the shore hurriedly shouted to their companions in the water. These teenagers ran towards the nearby Bay Stream City before they could even put on their clothes.

The guards on Bay Stream City had also discovered this scene, ran out of Bay Stream City, and responded to these teenagers who were facing danger.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh,

The guards drew their bows and shot down the galloping beasts one by one, trying to disperse these beasts and drive the direction of the beasts' gallop to the mountains on both sides.

The fastest running teenagers were about to reach the guards, but at this time a teenager stopped his steps, holding his wet hair in both hands and shouting loudly: "Oh no, I forgot to bring my brother back, he is still sleeping on the stone on the shore!"

At this time, everyone hurriedly looked towards the stream, a ignorant child, was awakened by the sound of the herd galloping, rubbing his eyes, and stood up from the short and long strip of stone in a daze.

And those herds of beasts have been scrambling to step over the streams and rivers, desperately rushing and impacting, like a torrent of rolling forward, whether it is an abyss in front or a child without resistance.

Seeing that the young child was about to be trampled to pieces by the beast tide, everyone couldn't help but exclaimed.

Only the young child, facing the tide of ten thousand beasts galloping, raised his arms, stretched out his small palms, and shouted loudly in a childish voice: "I am the son of a dragon, I am not afraid of you!"

Rumble! The next moment, the tide of beasts surged forward, engulfing the child in dust, and everyone couldn't help but close their eyes.

But cries of surprise rang out from behind. Some of the youths who had closed their eyes, unable to bear the sight, opened them again to see the tender boy now surrounded by the wings of a giant dragon.

Thick vines swelled and burst from the ground, forming a sturdy dam, firmly protecting the child beneath the dragon's wings.

"Well done, kid,"

The Green Dragon Ellie lowered her head, her pupils flashing with a smile as she said to the little imp beneath her wings, "You are truly a courageous child, though you seem a bit foolish in my eyes, but I like you!"
