Dragon Lance vs. Nightmare Dragon Colon

Saint Blue issued a bounty quest related to an evil dragon? And then posted this bounty quest to the Bronze Guild?

Why let the good stuff go to outsiders? With the strength of the Bronze Bounty Guild, investigating information related to the dragon is no problem. However, if a conflict breaks out with the dragon during the investigation, the members of the Bronze Guild will be in more danger.

The power of Prehistoric Evil Dragon should not be underestimated.

During the period when the Nightmare Dragon Colon and the Evil Dragon Westin were active, the God of Light Court had not yet fallen apart. Even the God of Light Court, as powerful as it was, could not deter these two evil dragons, which is enough to prove their ferocity.

"I know nothing about this. I don't concern myself with Saint Lan's affairs. What are the details of the bounty mission? I'm a little curious."

"Wait a moment." In the light screen projection, Meredith took the bounty mission sheet from a member of the Bronze Guild. "The Saint Blue Duchy operates a perfume business in the Nod Kingdom. Half a month ago, Olena, who was in charge of the perfume business in the Nod Kingdom, discovered that her employees were acting strangely."

Olena herself said Olena they often dreamed that they were followers of a great man who told them that if they followed him, he could grant them eternal life.

In their dream, to show their piety, Olena and the others donated all the gold and silver they earned from selling perfume to the great figure in their dream.

Initially, Olena and the others from the Saint Blue Duchy didn't take it to heart at all. After all, it's normal to dream about strange and unusual things.

As time went on, Olena discovered that everyone who ran the perfume business with her in the Nod Kingdom had dreamed of that scene.

What's even more terrifying is that all the money they earned from selling perfumes disappeared, as if they had truly given all their earnings to the big shot in their dreams.

In addition, Olena said that many nobles, wealthy families, and merchant guilds in the Nod Kingdom were experiencing the same situation, and she also discovered that the mental state of the people in the Nod Kingdom seemed to be abnormal.

The Rabbit-Ear Girl, Meredith, placed the bounty mission list on the table.

"Old man, if the bounty mission issued by your Saint Blue is true, then there is no need for investigation. There is only one evil dragon in the entire Sky Sea Domain that can take all the money for itself through dreams."

According to information released by the temple, only the Nightmare Dragon Colon Nightmare Dragon Colon such abilities. After all, this Prehistoric Evil Dragon once controlled three kingdoms through dreams and seized their gold and jewels.

If it wasn't the work of the Nightmare Dragon Colon, then it must be a demon. Recently, demons have been unusually active, and the guild has received many bounty missions to expel them.

So, sir, this bounty quest issued by Saint Blue is practically giving us free money. However, we did feel Saint Blue's goodwill; at least they didn't make us fight the evil dragon Kelong.

"Of course, if Saint Blue needs our assistance in defeating the evil dragon Kelong, we will cooperate fully. Old man, if it's about defeating Kelong, will you also participate?"

"Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't participate in defeating a dragon. But now, there's a possibility I might participate."

The Nightmare Dragon Colon is even robbing him out of his own pocket, how can he tolerate this? Olena's perfume business is part of Saint Blue's finances, and the money she earns from selling perfumes isn't just a few hundred or a few thousand gold coins, but tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of gold coins.

He was reluctant to squander the money from the Holy Blue Treasury, but the Nightmare Dragon Colon directly stole all the money Olena had earned in the Nod Kingdom through dreams.

He used his money to pour gold into the outer walls of the Dragon God Temple.

Meredith's red eyes lit up instantly. The old man was going to slay the Nightmare Dragon Colon? Then their Bronze Guild would have to follow suit.

The old man was a ruthless man who dared to put even demons in an iron pot to boil.

They fought the evil dragon together with the old man; the old man ate the meat, and they drank the soup.

The Nightmare Dragon Colon is incredibly wealthy; even a tiny bit of his riches, if it slips through his fingers, would be enough to make the Bronze Guild extremely rich.

"Our Bronze Guild is willing to join you in defeating the evil dragon! However, old man, you should think carefully. The Prehistoric Evil Dragon may be even stronger than the Blood Moon Devil we encountered before. After all, this guy may have lived for ten thousand years."

Despite being sealed for over eight thousand years, dragons, as creatures, grow stronger the longer they live. This is the complete opposite of humans; if a powerful human were sealed for over eight thousand years, by the time the seal is broken, the person would likely be gone too.

So, sir, you need to think this through carefully. Not only do you need to think it through, but you also need to ensure you're in peak condition.

"You also have designs on the Nightmare Dragon Colon?"

"Hehe, I do have some ideas, I want to follow in the footsteps of the old man and get some soup."

"Didn't the Bronze Guild open a branch in Alchemy City? Judging from the background behind you, it seems to be in the Bronze Guild's home base."

"Don't even mention it. The Alchemy City branch went bankrupt. There were too many Extraordinary Person there. At least eight out of ten Extraordinary Person were bounty hunters, and the remaining two were guild members."

Before the branch went bankrupt, we went to Mystical Shop to see you, Grandpa, hoping you could support us or give us some advice. But you disappeared for several months. How could we possibly hold on?

As members of the Bounty Guild, we can't keep working odd jobs forever, right? Rather than living such a tiring life, it's better to come back and stay home and tend to our own little corner of the world.

However, the president said that if you, sir, are willing to take care of us, we can open a branch in Saint Blue.

???

The branch went bankrupt after only a few months of operation? That's not surprising. Given the number of Extraordinary Person in Alchemy City, running Bounty Guild there would be less profitable than setting up a street stall.

"You can take on Saint Blue's bounty mission. If possible, have guild members go to the Nod Kingdom tomorrow to investigate. You don't need too many people, three will be enough. Send Louis, Bazel, and Dalton."

They had previously carried out a bounty mission to hunt down liches in the Nod Kingdom, so this was a chance for them to revisit the area.

"Alright, since the old man has spoken, I will inform the three of them later and have them make a trip to the Nod Kingdom."

Lance nodded. "I'll send you three Peace Talisman later so the three of them can wear them."

"Clear."

"Is there anything else?"

"It's gone."

Lance ended the call.

The young dragon, sitting in the small boat, is reeling in its line—it's moving too fast.

I never expected to face the Nightmare Dragon Colon so soon.

She wondered if the dragon Lance could defeat this Prehistoric Evil Dragon, Prehistoric Evil Dragon more than 8,000 years ago.

Even if they can't win, they should be able to protect themselves.

When the evil dragon Lance fought the Sacred Golden Dragon, he did not reveal his true form and was able to withstand the Sacred Golden Dragon's attacks even in human form.

Could Prehistoric Evil Dragon, no matter how powerful, be stronger than Sacred Golden Dragon?

It's unbelievable that the Nightmare Dragon Colon has only been born for a short time, yet it has already set its sights on a human kingdom again. Isn't it afraid of being sealed away again?

Joanna, the first human friend she made when she first left Black Dragon Island, was also in the Nod Kingdom Nod Kingdom.

Oh no! Joanna is the daughter of the Lord of Lionheart City, so her family must be quite wealthy. Could the Nightmare Dragon Colon have also controlled Joanna's family through dreams and plundered all their wealth? As Joanna's friend, she should warn Joanna at this time, but she doesn't have Projection Communicator or Joanna's contact information, so she can't notify her.

Ask the evil dragon Lance for help? I'm not capable enough myself, what if Lance gets injured by the evil dragon Kelong? Let's just wait and see.

The Nod Kingdom has temples.

The Valkyrie's temple is located in the Nod Kingdom, where a paladin named Steven also resides.

The evil dragon Kelong is causing chaos. Shouldn't the Valkyrie Temple's paladin Steven be tasked with defeating that dragon? I just don't know if Paladin Steven will be able to find the dragon.

"Dragon cub, pack your things, we're going to the Nod Kingdom."

"Huh? You really want to go? Can you defeat the evil dragon Kelong? What if you enter the Nod Kingdom and are suddenly invaded by the evil dragon Kelong in your dreams, thus handing over all your money to Kelong?"

"That won't happen to me, but you can't say for sure."

The young dragon thought for a moment, then took off the Lucky Coin hanging around its neck and handed it to Lance. "Please keep it safe for me. I'm afraid the evil dragon Kelong will steal the Lucky Coin you gave me while I'm sleeping."

"Wear it. Don't panic too much. The evil dragon Kelong probably wouldn't even steal the money from a young dragon. Besides, when you sleep at night, you can watch over me. If I sense anything invading your dreams, I will expel it for you immediately."

"That's true."

The baby dragon put the Lucky Coin around its neck again.

"Doesn't it feel a bit strange that you keep referring to the Nightmare Dragon Colon as an evil dragon?"

Lance smiled slightly at the young dragon and flicked its forehead with his finger. "There's absolutely nothing strange about it."

Lance took two fish from the baby dragon's fish basket and rowed away from the center of the lake.

Back at the Duke's mansion, Ticia and Claire were waiting for him in the hall. He had sent someone to inform Ticia and Claire to come to the Duke's mansion to see him.

The royal palace was too ostentatious, so he had Ticia change it into a ducal palace.

"Your Excellency, you were looking for us?"

"Hmm, has anything happened at Saint Blue recently?"

"No."

"Sit down and talk."

When Ticia and Claire sat down, they exchanged a glance.

Why is the Viscount asking them out of the blue if anything has happened at Saint Blue? Wait, could it be about Olena?

Yes, the Viscount must have known about this, which is why he specifically sent them here.

broken.

When issuing the bounty, I forgot to tell the members of the Bronze Guild not to tell the Viscount about it.

It's not that they wanted to keep it from their viscount.

They simply didn't want their viscount to leave Saint Blue again.

When the Viscount leaves, it can be for several months or even several years.

In addition, since Olena might have encountered the Nightmare Dragon Colon, they were also afraid that their viscount would not be able to defeat this Prehistoric Evil Dragon, so they chose to keep it a secret.

As for the approximately 120,000 gold coins lost, it was nothing compared to the Viscount's safety.

If it really was the Nightmare Dragon Colon who stole those gold coins, it would be barely acceptable, since the Nightmare Dragon Colon poured gold into the outer walls of the Dragon God Temple.

If Saint Lan is short of money, he can just strip off the gold from the outer wall and mint it into coins. That should net him tens of thousands.

"Your Excellency Viscount, you... you know about Olena's matter?"

"Hmm." Lance took the teapot from Ingrid, walked to sit opposite Ticia and Claire, and personally poured them both a cup of medicine to regulate their bodies. "To be honest, I never thought that one day I would be robbed by an evil dragon."

"Your Excellency, that amount of money is insignificant compared to your safety. Moreover, it is not yet certain whether the Nightmare Dragon Colon stole our revenue in the Nod Kingdom; it could also be a demon."

"Alright, no need to be so nervous. I won't risk my life. I called you two here today to tell you that if Saint Blue encounters any major losses in the future, you can let me know."

"Your Excellency, do you intend to go to the Nod Kingdom?"

"Well, I know a paladin in the Nod Kingdom, Valkyrie Temple. He can talk to the Nightmare Dragon Colon. If he can't, I will talk to the Nightmare Dragon Colon Kelong myself, as the Dragon God Temple First Pope."

I almost forgot that he was the Dragon God Temple First Pope.

This identity should still have some intimidating power over dragons.

"Ah? Oh, how could I forget that?" Ticia tapped her head with her hand. "Your Excellency is the Dragon God Temple First Pope. Even dragons have to put down their arrogant attitude when they see Your Excellency."

"So, if you ever have any questions about dragons in the future, you can tell me directly, and the dragons won't hurt me."

"Understood."

"Beware of demons. Demons appear quite frequently. If any demons appear within Saint Blue Territory, notify me immediately."

"As you command."

Lance waved his hand, signaling Ticia to relax.

After chatting for a while, Ticia and Claire got up and left. Before leaving, they took some medicine with them, which was prepared by the Viscount.

It was said to be for recuperation, as the Viscount was worried about the health of the Saint Blue's higher-ups.

The Viscount is really good to them.

It is their honor to be loyal to such a great man.

After nightfall, Lance took the young dragon back to Black Dragon Island.

Upon returning to Black Dragon Island, Lance transformed back into his black dragon form. He didn't plan to spend the night on Black Dragon Island; instead, he intended to go to the Nod Kingdom.

I came to Black Dragon Island to get a portrait.

A portrait of Sophia.

"Shall we go to the Nod Kingdom tonight?"

"Um."

"You plan to travel to the Nod Kingdom in the form of a black dragon?"

"If I were to travel to the Nod Kingdom in the form of a black dragon at this time, I fear the Temple Knights within the Nod Kingdom would mistake me for the Nightmare Dragon Colon."

"That's right."

Lance took out the Teleportation Gate and led the young dragon through Teleportation Gate to the Nod Kingdom.

The Nod Kingdom was brightly lit, with pedestrians still on the streets and shops still open.

He took Youlong to stroll through the night market for a while, and around 10 p. m., he and Youlong appeared at Saint Origin Commercial Street.

He arrived at the shop selling the "Blue Moon" perfume with practiced ease, and saw that Olena and the shop assistants were still there.

They didn't look well; their dark circles were very noticeable.

This state looks like they've been pulling all-nighters for several nights in a row. The problem is quite serious. If they continue like this, they might die suddenly.

Lance pushed open the door and entered the store.

"Excuse me, sir, we're coming up now, Viscount Zizi!!"

The clerk's exclamation startled the other drowsy employees.

When Olena and the other shop assistants saw that the visitor was indeed their Viscount, they hurriedly lined up, placed their hands on their chests, knelt on one knee, and bowed to Lance.

"Yes, yes, we're so sorry, Your Excellency! We... we've let you down!"

"Get up. Money is far less important to me than your health. Get a good night's sleep. I'll stay here and watch over you tonight."

They were all children, and he even gave them candy.

I never expected that these children would look so haggard after not seeing them for a while. The Nightmare Dragon Colon deserves compensation for emotional distress, lost wages, and medical expenses.

The minimum compensation for these children is five thousand gold coins.

Lance waved his right hand toward the ground, and a layer of shimmering grass appeared on the clean white floor tiles.

"Go to sleep, I'll watch over you tonight."
