Red Dragon: In Charge of Natural Disasters

Chapter 244 George's Experience (Part 2)

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

Suddenly, a strange voice called him.

"Wait."

George's face suddenly broke out in cold sweat. He thought of some terrible rumors: it is said that there is a "black market" in the dark of the kingdom, where the adults of the ogre and hobgoblin clans would gather there to secretly sell some human organs and flesh, and feast on them, which is absolutely illegal under normal circumstances.

Did he run into the rumored black marketeer?

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

In a trance, he saw a man in a robe not far away. He couldn't tell whether he was a man or a woman. His body shape was roughly the same as his. 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'm not a claw of the evil dragon. Are you a resident of North Wind Castle?"

George scratched his head in confusion.

"I think so. Anyway, I live here every day. You know the 'Giant Smart' food processing factory in the South City, I work there."

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

George was immediately surprised and happy, and his face showed a deep joy. He didn't expect that there would be a windfall.

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

"Of course, of course."

This is silver coins, which is the salary he can get after working for several months!

And if George's eyes can see through this robe, he will definitely be amazed by the delicate features and elegant temperament under the hood-this so-called mysterious man is the organizer of the Arcane Hermitage, the young silver dragon of Melward, Olivia, known as the "Silver Star".

Years later, the Arcane Hermitage has grown stronger, but she has never seen the golden dragon Angel.

Although she was quite sad and depressed, the young silver dragon wizard could only guess that the righteous golden dragon might have been captured or even brutally killed.

Olivia decided to find out the news 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. I used to be a farmer in Lord Brad's manor. I didn't have enough food every day. My parents died early. Our master fell a few years ago. I heard from the adults in the kingdom that it was His Majesty Cassius who "liberated" us, so I was able to come to North Wind Castle."

At this point, George scratched his head embarrassedly.

"But I think it should be better. Now I work in a food processing factory. I am exhausted every day, but at least I can fill my stomach. Last winter, none of the workers in the factory starved to death, which is rare in the manor."

"Are you asking where the food comes from?"

"The bigwigs in the kingdom used wonderful magic to create something. They named it "energy filler", but we generally call it "paste". This thing tastes tasteless, but it can fill the stomach. The first time I had a full meal was in the factory cafeteria."

As if he thought of something, he said in a joking tone:

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

Olivia was a little surprised. This was very different from what she imagined.

In her expected picture, North Wind Castle should have been boiling with resentment and wailing.

You have to know that with the greed and tyranny of red dragons, the places they rule are generally cruelly exploited. Moreover, in the poems and novels of the northern nobles, the Kingdom of Burning Embers is also described as a devil's cave in hell.

Even she can't avoid some preconceived ideas.

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

But as an outsider, under the reminder of the clan elders, Olivia cannot interfere in human society at will. She can only sympathize with these huge numbers of "gray animals" and occasionally give alms.

Unexpectedly, this red dragon actually used precious magic resources for production and even liberated serfs, which was really unimaginable to Olivia.

Bahamut, that's a red dragon!

As a racial enemy, the silver dragon knows this terrible five-colored dragon best.

In stark contrast to the closeness of the silver dragons 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 this "King of Burning Embers" is not so hopeless.

But maybe.

He has a bigger plan?

Thinking of this, Olivia continued to inquire about the news.

"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 this sentence, and said this passage very smoothly and in a rhythm, almost 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 memory was 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 after hearing 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.
