Chapter 3656 Earth Dragon Leather Clothes
Since ancient times, the best way for creatures to form alliances is marriage.
Because after a marriage, both parties will have feelings for each other unconsciously. In the past, they could kill each other without hesitation. But after a marriage, there will be wavering. Even if it is just a slight wavering, it will leave the other party to turn things around. Chance.
And what does it take to get married?
A spouse, some property, that's it.
And what will be the result?
The protection from the other party, and the ability to use the other party's identity to strengthen the status of one's own family, in order to seek higher status and interests.
In other words, as long as you can always choose the right marriage partner, even if it is just a small or medium-sized noble at first, it is possible that with the joint efforts of several generations, it will be promoted to the leading noble in the country.
This is not false exaggeration, but seeking truth from facts.
The simplest and most obvious example is my marriage to Daphne.
Mr. Mavro, who originally lived a tepid life in Ai Rui City, became a well-known businessman in Da Sai City in a very short period of time after Daphne and I became a fiancée. Organizations will strongly recommend him as the president of the chamber of commerce.
In addition, the old Duke even took the initiative to contact him to conduct military business.
Before that, he was just an ordinary civilian.
He is just an ordinary civilian. After entering into a correct marriage relationship, the status of the entire family skyrockets. What if the other family is a noble?
There is no need to think too much. With the current resources and strong connections of the other family, as long as they do not usurp power or seek chaos, Hathaway's family will become the leading family in York and Seoul in a very short period of time. At the same time, , they are also very likely to open up the political scene in Fort Witch. They may not be able to reach the top of the political arena in a short period of time, but it is still easy to find a place.
Thinking of this, I am even less likely to marry Hathaway. To be precise, I don’t want Simmons Locke to get involved in the political circles of Fort Wych.
Although Simmons Locke is Bai Yunying's uncle, he can also be regarded as my uncle, but there is a difference between closeness and distance. Just like Simmons Locke cannot treat me wholeheartedly, I cannot dedicate everything to him regardless of the consequences. .
And compared to Simmons Locke, Master Dewey's attitude towards me can be called a heart-to-heart attitude - he has even reserved the position of the future behind-the-scenes boss of Vitchburg for me, only waiting for me to become able to stand alone. When a man is capable of shouldering the heavy responsibility of Wychburg, he will abdicate and make way for others.
And from the bottom of my heart, I don’t want him to abdicate his throne in favor of a more talented person - it would be great to be a free and easy second-generation Quan, who only has to eat and wait for death every day.
So the next day, when I entered the palace again and chatted with Simmons Locke, when he once again mentioned that Hathaway was actually a good girl, I said seriously that I would not marry Hathaway. It's not because I don't like her, but because I can't make Bai Yunying sad.
When Simmons Locke mentioned that there was a high probability that Bai Yunying would not be sad, I once again said that if Bai Yunying agreed and really would not feel sad, everything would be easy.
However, if you want to make me believe that Bai Yunying is really as Simmons Locke said and will not have any negative emotions because of this matter, it is best to prove it with examples, for example, use my phone crystal to speak in front of me. , tell this matter to Bai Yunying.
As long as Bai Yunying doesn't express anything about this, I dare to marry not just one, but two!
When I finished saying this in a very heroic tone, Simmons Locke was stunned.
He stared blankly at the call crystal in my hand. After a moment of silence, he laughed a few times and said, "Look, I'm not joking with you. Why should I take it seriously?"
I sneered silently in my heart: Tsk, if it hadn’t been for Master Dewey’s instruction last night, I would have been tricked by you.
For more than a day after that, Simmons Rock never mentioned anything about Hathaway to me.
It was as if he had forgotten the existence of this girl.
It wasn't until the day of departure that Hathaway showed up at the airship base with some necessary tools and a team of experts.
This time, she changed her outfit and wore tights. She looked very nice and tempting, but would this really affect her work?
I was curious about this, and after boarding the airship, I asked her my doubts.
Hathaway smiled and tugged on her sleeves, explaining to me that the quality of this tight-fitting leather jacket was very good, and its defensive power was equivalent to that of ordinary soft armor.
When I heard this, I became interested. I stared at the dark tight leather jacket and asked, "What kind of fabric is this made of?"
"Earth-walking dragon" Hathaway said: "Have you heard of this kind of monster?"
"Earth Dragon, come to think of it, isn't that the exclusive mount of Fort Vicky?"
The so-called earth dragon is not another name for the elite demonized lizards in the dungeon, but a creature that lives on the ground.
Because of its huge size and fierce personality, it is difficult to tame, so it is called a monster by the human race.
The exclusive mount of Fort Vicky that I mentioned before does not mean that the earth-walking dragon surrenders to the dwarves. In fact, the reason why the dwarves can use the earth-walking dragon as a mount is because the dwarves are indeed strong enough and always use arrogance. His strength beat the Earth-walking dragon into submission. On the other hand, the dwarves did not sign any strange contract with the Earth-walking dragon, but coexisted in the same sky in a cooperative manner.
Rather than saying it is cooperation, perhaps it is more appropriate to describe it as employment.
The earth dragon serves as the mount and transportation unit of Fort Vicky, and the people of Vicki Fort provide them with a large amount of food, and will also help the dragon take care of its cubs, and will also protect the dragon and its cubs in times of crisis.
Over time, this relationship has reached a tacit understanding. The Earthly Dragon is only gentle to the people of Wichburg, but it is still fierce and violent to others.
This also makes people from other countries, especially the human race who have no good impression of the Earth-walking dragon, find traces of the Earth-walking dragon in their own country and immediately find and kill it.
The meat of the killed earth dragon will be sold in the market, while the fur will be sold on the black market.
The fur of the ground dragon is very popular on the black market. On the one hand, it is because the fur of the ground dragon is very tight. On the other hand, it is also because the fur of the ground dragon is very hard and can be sewn into clothing that is both tough and lightweight.
Just like Hathaway's tights, they look beautiful and have good defense.
Conventional crossbows and magic attacks would only cause her pain at most, but would not cause any substantial damage.
"This set of clothes is so exquisite. Was it made by any master?"
I asked curiously, staring at the exquisite tight leather jacket.
"Yes," Hathaway said, "It was made by a dwarf master."
"Master Dwarf?" I asked, "Can you tell me his name?"
