Chapter 209 Debt Collector
Chapter 209 Debt Collector
"I've completed Dragon Ecology!"
Jaslin led them away from the long line and patiently explained the situation to the confused schoolmates.
"A dragon is a magical creature with super-distance vision. If it is really as they say, a cruel dragon that will not leave any alive, how could it let them escape?"
"That's right. Only those who have no understanding of magical creatures would think that humans can use their tiny size to discover dragons before dragons discover themselves. In fact, as long as dragons are willing, they can discover humans from a very long distance." Another senior added.
"And dragons usually only have one color. What's black on top and white on the bottom? Do you think it's a black king cobra?" Jaslin looked disgusted.
"Ah - so that crater is the end of the scam!" Lulu suddenly realized. She never expected that people nowadays are so mean! Why do they keep lying to us?
She looked to Lilith for approval, only to find her partner was already in a trance.
"But, the young lady from the Baron's family is indeed missing, right?"
Hannah was worried about the biggest victim in this matter.
"If nothing unexpected happens—" Jaslin pointed behind her, "that knight is not free from responsibility."
……
With a creak, the knight's door was pushed open again. He cursed and turned around.
"Bell, I told you not to let anyone in anymore!" the downtrodden knight yelled angrily.
However, no one outside the house responded.
A pair of long legs stepped in, followed by a young face, looking at everything in the room with curiosity.
"I say, you—?"
A hint of doubt appeared on the knight's handsome face. He had seen many mercenary groups in the morning, old and young, but this was the first time he had seen a single person.
But the young man took off his hood and snorted in the room, grinning at him, "What a nice smell, do you smell it?"
"Of course, it's already lunch time!" The knight tried to shoo them away, "Do you mercenaries have any manners?"
"Mercenary?" The young man walked over with long legs. "I'm not a mercenary. I'm here to collect debts, my friend."
The knight's eyes narrowed. "You, you are the man of the black street old Burns?! I said I would settle the gambling debt quickly--"
"I don't belong to anyone." The young man continued to approach, and finally suddenly reached out and stroked the edge of his bed.
"What are you doing! Bell! Damn it! Are you deaf?!" The knight was extremely disgusted with others approaching his bed. He called out to his companions and began to look for his sword.
There is something wrong with this person!!!
"Ten cartloads of gold, huh? That's what they seem to say. Then you still owe me nine cartloads. Where's the rest?"
"You, what are you talking about?!" The knight tried to push away the young man who was approaching him, but he was easily grabbed by the throat and thrown out like a bug.
He fell to the ground with a thud at the door. He looked up dizzily, but first saw Bell lying face down on the ground outside the door, his life or death unknown.
There was a sound of cracking wood, and he looked up in panic, only to see that the young man had already opened the bed board that he had nailed shut, and the room was instantly filled with dazzling golden light.
The young man reached in with his slender hands and fished out a handful of gold coins. He lowered his head and took a deep breath, his tone filled with joy, "Yes, that's the taste."
Now the knight no longer looked terminally ill. He closed the door, picked up the sword beside the table, and looked sinister.
"Who gave you the information? Pierre? Tommy? Or Raman? Humph! It's not enough to divide the money, you also want to play a traitorous game? Do you think I can't see through it?"
"Are these the names? I'll remember them. Thank you." The man smiled happily, revealing his sharp fangs. "Do you owe a lot of money, sir?"
The knight said nothing, still staring coldly at the young man who was talking to himself.
"In fact, I know that there is more than one way to settle a debt..." He suddenly turned his head towards the knight behind him.
Although he was laughing, the knight trembled subconsciously, feeling as if he was being stared at by some dangerous beast, and his feet seemed to be nailed down and unable to move. In the weird and dangerous atmosphere, the knight finally collapsed, yelled and drew his sword, and suddenly, his pupils widened -
"boom--"
Lilith and her group had already walked out of the alley and were about to go to the baron's house to report the news when they suddenly heard a deafening noise. Before they could turn around, they heard a huge, heavy, and distant roar.
"Roar--!"
Like a lion, like a tiger, like the howling of a violent wind, like waves hitting rocks. The entire space was trembling slightly, that was the surge of power in the air.
Everyone couldn't help but bow their heads, which was the subconscious reaction of humans to danger.
The sky seemed to suddenly darken. Lilith turned her head and saw a huge figure rising from the direction they had just come from. Its wings spread out, blocking out the sky and the sun. Lilith's eyes suddenly narrowed. That was -
A dragon. A real dragon.
It just appeared out of nowhere on the edge of a city where humans gather!
It was a black dragon. It flapped its wings, rose slightly, and then raised its neck.
"Yes, it's true... Jaslin! There really is a dragon!" Joan finally reacted and screamed excitedly.
Jaslin seemed to have finally recovered from the roar that pierced her eardrums. She looked at the dragon's bulging cheeks, her face turned pale, and she suddenly shouted -
"run!"
Although some people did not react, out of trust in their companions, almost everyone followed Jaslin forward without hesitation as soon as the voice fell.
Ian had just run two steps when he suddenly realized that Lilith had not caught up with him. He turned around hurriedly, only to find that the girl was still standing there, looking up at the terrifying monster in the sky.
"Lilith!" Ian shouted and grabbed her arm.
"Boom——" His voice was drowned out by the dragon's breath.
The black dragon lowered its huge head and spewed a violent flame towards the knight's house. A sea of fire instantly spread under its body, completely engulfing the dilapidated hut, and screams rang out.
Everyone was stunned by the sudden change before their eyes. This, this is, Dragon Flame? !
Lilith broke away from Ian, and walked towards the black dragon with her head raised, ignoring the heat blowing in her face.
"Lilith! What's wrong with you?" Qiong screamed and stopped her schoolmate from running towards the sea of fire.
"Oh, I want to see if it's male or female, um..." Lilith looked over Joan's shoulder, still looking towards the thick smoke. There was too much smoke down there, and she couldn't see clearly - eh? How do you tell the difference between male and female dragons?
But Jia Silin covered her mouth with a pale face. It was terrible! This school girl was not very old, how could she dare to see everything! !
When I was teaching them about dragons just now, I didn’t have time to mention that dragons not only have excellent eyesight, but also superb hearing!
A high-pitched roar sounded again, containing endless majesty and domineering, as if declaring its kingly dignity to the world. The birds in the city were startled, and the people and livestock screamed and fled.
In the chaos, the giant dragon flapped its wings and suddenly rose high. It twisted its body in the air to break free from the thick smoke, and soon turned into a black dot, disappearing from everyone's sight.
