Is This Black Dragon Secretly a Pervert?
When he was a corrupt official, he was sent to the gallows for taking even a small amount of money.
The corrupt official in the bounty mission will surely suffer an even more gruesome death.
The king of the kingdom who built the golden city was a yellow bird.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
Corrupt officials are like mantises, unaware of the oriole that is the king.
The corrupt official bore the infamy, while all the gold and silver treasures fell into his national treasury, and he even secretly built a Golden City.
If the so-called Golden City were truly a city-shaped Golden Tomb, then the Golden City would resemble the kingdom's capital. No, the blueprints for the Golden City were drawn by corrupt officials, so the Golden City built by the king might not actually resemble the kingdom's capital.
It almost misled Meredith and the others.
No wonder it's a joint bounty mission.
The Golden City may be larger and more complex than the Bounty Guild Hunters imagined.
The mission level is definitely "Death-Class".
The Bronze Bounty Guild mobilized 27 members at once, including even the Rabbit-Ear Girl Meredith, who served as both a receptionist and the mascot, demonstrating the importance they placed on this bounty mission.
The bounty must be quite generous.
Of course, it's possible that these guys from the Bronze Bounty Guild want to see the legendary "Golden City".
Even he, the black dragon, wanted to go and see the "Golden City" when he heard the words, let alone these guys who like to join in the fun.
"Grandpa, are you tempted?"
"Indeed, there is some. How about I bring the Knights of Saint Blue City and go with you to explore this Lost Golden City?"
"???"
The old man was somewhat domineering and arrogant.
They had seen the Knights Legion of Saint Blue City, riding Earth Dragon, while the two commanders rode flying dragons.
Such a entourage would likely cost tens of thousands of gold coins just for the travel expenses. When entering other kingdoms, they might have to undergo inspections, and without proper documentation, they could be detained.
Leading a legion of knights is unrealistic.
"Sir, are you willing to pay tens of thousands of gold coins?"
"Just kidding. The Knights Legion of Saint Blue City is only so small. If they were really taken away, other forces would take the opportunity to attack Saint Blue, and Saint Blue might disappear from the Red Maple Kingdom. Just kidding, don't take it seriously."
He won't mobilize the Holy Blue Knights Legion; he'll just bring his dragon cubs along for the adventure and treasure hunting.
The Saint Blue Knight Legion has only one mission: to protect their Holy Blue.
He can't stay in [Saint Blue] forever. After a while, he might take the dragon cub and leave [Saint Blue].
The members of the Bronze Bounty Guild were lucky; when they came to Saint Blue to visit and see the old man, he hadn't left Saint Blue yet.
"[The Lost Golden City], is there no time limit for this bounty quest?"
"If we arrive at the mission location before the end of the month and clear a passage to the Golden City within half a month, our mission will be complete. After that, we can choose whether to stay in the Golden City."
If you want to stay in Golden City, you can take on the next stage of bounty missions, which offer higher rewards than the first stage.
If you don't want to accept the second phase of the bounty mission, you can choose to leave or enter the Golden City for free exploration.
Choosing the latter option means accepting the consequences. If all members of the Bounty Guild unfortunately perish within the Golden City, the employer bears no responsibility.
Joint bounty missions, once the mission objective is achieved, can also be changed into phased missions.
The employer who posted the bounty is very wealthy.
"Be careful. I'll prepare some more extraordinary potions for you in the next few days. Take them with you when you leave. They might be able to help you if you encounter any danger."
"Grandpa, you're so kind to us. Meredith likes you the most."
Lance punched the Rabbit-Ear Girl Meredith, "Speak properly."
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Your rabbit ears are so badly damaged that they can't stand up anymore, Grandpa!"
Grinning and groaning in pain, Meredith touched her rabbit ears and said, "Grandpa, this bounty mission is too dangerous and not suitable for a Potion Master like you. If the bounty mission were even slightly lower level, we would have called you."
So, no matter how tempting it is, we won't take you. However, if we do manage to enter the Lost Golden City, we'll try our best to bring you back a large piece of gold as a New Year's gift.
"Don't be too greedy. Leave yourself an out. Sometimes it can save you from disaster. As for the gold, I'll find it and earn it myself."
Overly greedy Bounty Guild hunters rarely live long.
Especially in treasure hunt bounty missions, even people who are not usually greedy might develop greedy hearts when they enter an underground ancient city where gold and silver treasures are casually placed.
Those who are already greedy will have their reason completely overwhelmed when they see this.
Losing one's rationality and ability to think means death is not far off.
"Don't worry, old man. We've followed you through many bounty missions, so we know exactly how you do things."
We will definitely take what we should take, and if we shouldn't take something, even if mountains of gold and silver are presented to us, we will turn away without hesitation.
They had all teamed up with Old Man Lance. Even someone as greedy as Grandpa Lance could sometimes give up rare and precious treasures.
They never go to extremes.
Believe it or not, the old man's way of doing things really saved them from death several times.
Influenced by Old Man Lance, the members of their Bronze Bounty Guild never go too far when accepting bounty missions and going out to carry them out.
Perhaps because of this, the members of the Bronze Guild have always managed to escape danger and at most suffer minor injuries when they go out on missions over the years.
The most serious injuries suffered by guild members were to Louis, Dalton, and Bazel.
The three of them underestimated the Sword Intent Scroll given by Old Man Lance, resulting in them being accidentally injured by the Sword Intent Scroll. "Old man, as the Earl of Saint Blue, why are you setting up a stall? Saint Blue's tax revenue is enough to support you and Little Dragon Highness."
"Saint Blue's tax revenue is meant to be used for Saint Blue's development. If I use Saint Blue's tax revenue to support myself and my dragon cubs, how am I any different from that corrupt official mentioned in the bounty mission?"
"There is a difference. The little money you embezzled probably wouldn't even be enough to lay the foundation for Golden City."
That cannot be refuted.
"Go and wander around Saint Lan. Come to the Earl's Mansion tonight, and I'll treat you to dinner."
"Are you inviting us to a restaurant?"
"Please eat the food I cooked."
"."
Louis, Bazel, Dalton immediately lost interest. The old man's cooking was all medicinal cuisine, and it tasted alright. But they still wanted to go to the luxurious restaurant in Saint Blue City for a big meal. It would probably be good to eat the old man's medicinal cuisine tonight, to nourish themselves and recharge their energy so that they could have a big showdown when they arrived at the Lost Golden City in a few days.
Louis, Bazel, Dalton went to find the baby dragon. The three of them had once set up a stall with the baby dragon in Lionheart City of the Norton Kingdom, and were quite familiar with the little dragon.
They also prepared a gift for Xiaolong.
Dragons love gold and silver jewelry. If the Lost Golden City in the bounty mission is indeed made of gold, then they'll see if they can take away the golden gate of the Golden City.
If we can move them, we'll give one of the two golden doors to Old Man Lance and the other to Little Dragon.
How about letting Old Man Lance and Little Dragon share a Golden Gate?
The remaining golden door can go to the members of their Bronze Bounty Guild.
Meredith, the Rabbit-Ear Girl, chatted with Lance for a while in front of the cabin window, then said goodbye to Lance and went to find the baby dragon. She also prepared a gift for the baby dragon that Old Man Lance had found.
The gift she prepared for Xiaolong was a gold bracelet. She originally wanted to buy him a gold necklace, but it was beyond her budget, so she had to change it to a gold bracelet.
When she goes to the Lost Golden City, she'll see if she can saw a scrap of Golden City and bring it back. If she can, she'll make a gold bracelet for Xiaolong when she gets back.
Some citizens of Saint Blue City who were passing by the square saw that the Viscount's Little Dragon Highness was surrounded by a group of outsiders and stood not far away to watch.
Seeing that they all seemed to know the Viscount and even addressed him as "Old Master Viscount," they then left.
It's no longer surprising that the Viscount occasionally appears in the city; after all, sometimes he even strolls along country lanes with a canopy draped over his arm.
They would even treat sick children.
As elderly people get older and their legs become less mobile, villagers in the countryside will soon notice that there are many more wheelchairs in the village square.
Provide transportation for elderly people with mobility issues.
Then, as the story spread, it became known as "[The Viscount will randomly spawn Saint Blue City]".
You'll have good luck if you encounter a randomly spawning Viscount outside the city.
A few days before some Extraordinary Person from within the city go out on missions, they would go to the Saint Blue City to try their luck and see if they could encounter the Viscount, who would randomly appear and bring them good fortune.
I heard that before the New Year, a few lucky Extraordinary Person encountered the randomly spawning Viscount outside the city. After returning from their mission, they told their companions that the mission went very smoothly.
It's just that teammates sometimes suffer undeserved misfortunes.
The absurd thing that happened gradually became known among the Extraordinary Person in the city as, "The Viscount will randomly sacrifice the luck value of one of his companions."
As the legends surrounding the Viscount grew, they also became increasingly outlandish.
It even spread to several surrounding towns and cities.
Lance closed up shop.
The cabin was confiscated.
Some desserts, cakes, and medicinal drinks were sold, but most of them were eaten and consumed by members of the Bronze Guild.
Not a single bottle of the extraordinary potion they concocted was sold; it was all stolen by those little bastards from the Bronze Guild.
Having just arrived in Saint Blue today, the Rabbit-Ear Girl Meredith and her Old Man Lance. In front of the old man, they kidnapped his dragon cub and had it take them around Saint Blue City Saint Blue City and its surroundings.
Lance was relieved that the dragon cub was with them.
As long as they don't leave Saint Blue, the dragon cub will be safe.
With Longzai not around, preparing ingredients is still just preparation. There are twenty-seven people; how long would it take him to cook all the food by himself? How about we give them a big iron pot, cook a big stew for them, and make a pot of rice?
That's too much trouble. Let's find a restaurant and treat them to a meal.
It saves time, effort, and worry.
Lance went to the lake not far from the Dragon God Temple.
In this weather, digging a hole in the middle of a lake and fishing for a while would be a very pleasant thing to do.
Arriving at the center of the frozen lake, a finger gently poks into the thick ice, and a fishing hole instantly forms.
He took out his fishing gear, moved out a stool, and then took out a flask filled with Baijiu (Chinese liquor). He sat down and began fishing.
Forgot to bait the spot? No big deal. Just pour half a gourd of Baijiu into the ice hole, then throw in some finely chopped fish bait, and you'll soon attract big fish.
Be patient and wait. Fishing requires patience.
With nothing else to do, Lance's Death God Scythe flew out of the Diamond Cutter and dialed the Grim Reaper's Death God Scythe number of the Trainee Death God Undead Bone Dragon Garcia.
Ask Garcia, the Undead Bone Dragon, if he's interested in causing a ruckus in the area under the jurisdiction of Death God Solomon in Hell.
Undead Bone Dragon can remain in the mortal world or enter Hell.
He was communicating with the Undead Bone Dragon here, unafraid that the citizens and Extraordinary Person of Saint Blue City would see it. What they saw would be distorted and switched into other images by the power from hell.
Garcia, the grotesque skull of the Undead Bone Dragon, appeared on the projection screen. "My friend Lance, not long ago a hellish grim reaper contacted me. I was just about to greet that hellish grim reaper when he cut off the projection call."
"He's my cheap boss, Death God Solomon of Hell, Tier Two Death God who could become Tier Three Death God at any time. I asked him to contact you, but he mistakenly thought you killed the Trainee Death God I had signed. Knowing that you are the Trainee Death God I signed, he wants to borrow you."
"Borrow me? Borrow me for what purpose?"
"You're being seconded to the Western Continent, which is the territory of the Demon Race. Recently, Hell's operations have expanded there, and some Death Gods have been transferred there to take charge of the business. As a result, the Demon Race has Small Underworld there, and the Demon Race is indifferent to Hell and doesn't recognize it."
Conflicts erupt from time to time. Solomon, the Death God Solomon, oversees Small Underworld, and he wants to borrow you there to cause trouble in that Small Underworld and Hell as the "Evil Dragon Ghost King."
Lance explained why Death God Solomon from hell, had borrowed the Undead Bone Dragon Garcia.
"So, I'd like to ask you if you'd be interested in going to the area under Death God Solomon's jurisdiction in Hell, becoming a Evil Dragon Ghost King and infiltrating the Small Underworld for fun."
"Not interested."
"What a pity."
"What's a pity?"
"What a pity about the charming and alluring Succubus, the aloof and bloodthirsty vampires, the evil and cold-blooded demonesses, the winged eaglewomen, and the snake-haired Medusa," said Death God Solomon. "Most of the Evil Spirit in the area he is in charge of are like these."
There's also a considerable bounty, and subsequent rewards from Hell. Never mind, you probably don't care about that. I'll ask the other Trainee Death God if they're interested."
"My friend."
"What's wrong?"
"What am I?"
"Undead Bone Dragon".
"Yes, I am Undead Bone Dragon, my whole body is made of bones. Do you think it will work if you try to tempt me with those evil Evil Spirit of the opposite sex?"
"."
Oh no, I forgot about that.
They were so focused on the dragon's lust that they forgot Garcia was Undead Bone Dragon.
Seduction is really ineffective against Undead Bone Dragon.
It was a mistake.
"No."
"My friend, you're wrong. It's useful. Although I've become Undead Bone Dragon, I'm still very interested in those cute female Evil Spirit. I agree. Send me the coordinates of Death God Solomon in hell. After I've packed up, I'll take my followers and become the [Evil Dragon Ghost King] in a few days."
"I will make all the Evil Spirit of the opposite sex in that region my servants. My friend Lance, remember this: there is no dragon in this world that is not lustful."
"I don't think all dragons are lecherous."
"Dragons that aren't lustful are all secretly passionate."
"."
Lance fell into deep thought. Was his black dragon a repressed, brooding creature? Clearly not.
He's not a repressed, brooding black dragon.
He was an elegant, knowledgeable, and talented black dragon.
"Garcia, have you ever heard of the Lost Golden City?"
"Never heard of it. If I had, the Lost Golden City would have been Golden City long ago."
That makes sense.
The dragon is greedy. If Garcia knew about the Lost Golden City Lost Golden City, he would definitely lead his followers to attack it and take it for himself.
After chatting idly with Garcia for a while, Lance took a sip of his Baijiu and turned off the projector.
No fish are biting the hook.
Lance suspected that the Squid Girl had stolen and eaten the fish, so he decided to go down and check when spring arrived.
Eileen, the Lightning Dragon, held the "Sword Scripture" in her hands, leaned against a large tree, and looked at the human viscount who was fishing in the center of the lake.
He really loves fishing, regardless of wind or snow.
On a rainy day, we went boating to the center of the lake to fish.
On a snowy day, carve an ice hole, sit in a chair and fish. When you get cold, have a sip of wine to warm yourself up, and then continue fishing.
It's pleasant and relaxing.
Of all the human nobles she had ever met, this human viscount was the one who knew how to enjoy life the most.
They do not vie for power or profit, do not think about how to exploit their territory and subjects, and do not assign their subjects any random or irrelevant tasks.
He also didn't care about politics, military power, or taxation, and his relationship with his subjects in his territory was exceptionally harmonious.
Building a Dragon God Temple can earn the Dragon God's approval.
How did this lazy human viscount manage to do that? Oh, I see her. I'm saying hello to her.
Eileen also raised the hand holding the "Sword Scripture" and waved it at the human viscount.
I never expected to encounter such an interesting and mysterious human in the human world. When Dragon Island returns and the other female dragons descend upon Saint Blue, they might be attracted to the human viscount.
The human viscount should be careful, as some domineering female dragons will abduct any human they fancy.
Human viscounts may encounter such female dragons.
It's been almost an hour. It seems that the human viscount, this fishing enthusiast, won't have any luck today.
Eileen turned and went back to the Dragon God Temple.
That evening Lance treated the members of the Bronze Guild to dinner at the largest restaurant in Saint Blue City. After they had eaten and drunk their fill, when they saw the bill—one hundred and three Saint Gold —Lance had the idea of having the Rabbit-Ear Girl Meredith and the members of the Bronze Guild work illegally at the restaurant to pay off the debt. "Grandpa, the plan has changed. We have to leave tomorrow. After we complete this bounty mission, we'll go back to Saint Blue City for a while to enjoy ourselves."
"???"
Setting a flag?
These poor kids probably won't be coming back. P. S.: Please vote for me!
