301 Things Are Changing (1/2)

Noon the next day, Wang Lu and the others arrived at Dragon City in a flash, which was a long distance away.

When departing from Golden Flash Town, Dragon City Master Bedivere transformed into a giant dragon of more than a hundred meters’ wingspan, carrying all the people on his back, and flew them back at the flight speed of a dragon.

Riding the most illustrious city master in Western Continent was a most privileged treatment. On the dragon’s back, all the way to Dragon City, the hearts of the newly recruited Dragon City Guards continued to thump wildly. They didn’t even dare to breathe. It was as if they were in a dream.

Actually, Bedivere himself didn’t care about this. All that he could think about was how to be quicker.

The Dragon City Guard selection ceremony in Golden Flash Town was not his wish. He felt sick the whole time. Therefore, the sooner it finished and the faster he came home the better. However, the three Holy Light priests wouldn’t consider maintaining Bedivere’s face—He had to stoop before this group of recruits to be treated as their horse, while the three priests were very eager to return home a bit earlier to receive their award.

——

When the group of recruits along with the dragon-transformed Bedivere slowly landed, a soul-stirring pressure welled up in the hearts of this group of recruits. It was due to the faint pressure coming from the city itself. Dragon City was, after all, named after the Dragon. Within thousands of years, it had long obtained too many connections with the Dragon Clan. Today, the whole city was awash with the Dragon aura. Dragon City was the most magnificent city in the whole Brettonia. The former capital of the Knight King was not as good as this mighty ancient city.

When overlooking it from the sky, most of the new recruits were filled with joy and excitement. But for the conscientious one, this was a valuable opportunity to look at the overall situation.

”There’s literally a forest of powerful people. This Dragon City…” Wang Lu gently squinted his eyes. Through his perception, he sensed that solely the aura of those whom in high order professions alone there was more than fifty people, and countless individuals in middle order professions. This did not include those powerful individuals who were accustomed to hiding their strength. In the Nine Regions, only the big top-level sects that could compare to such a force.

Aya said, ”Yes. Moreover, they are an all-rounded complete force. Dragon City Guard, Holy Light Religion, and other adventurers are all gathered here, the total number is very large. After more than a hundred years passed, this city has become bigger than ever, and can even compare to my group of Knights of the Round Table.”

At the peak of Aya’s reign, the number of high order professions under her command was more than a hundred. Of course, this didn’t mean that in the vast land of Brettonia, there were only so few of those in high order professions, but most of the powerful individuals were accustomed to freedom, and they wouldn’t settle to just be under the whims of the Knight King. To put it simply, the so-called Knight King was just the strongest force in Brettonia, and did not dominate the entire land.

Right now, the scale of Dragon City was even comparable to the powerful Knights of the Round Table of the Knight King, who upon seeing it made Aya’s heart be filled with emotion.

”What a pity. Though the scale is large, as a whole, they’re not that different compared to loose sand.” Aya lightly said, ”The strength of this city hasn’t been integrated at all.”

”Therefore we have the opportunity to make our move. Nine hundred and ninety-nine roses, as well as the road to restoring your Kingdom, start here.”

The new batch of Dragon City Guards soon began their new life in Dragon City.

Upon arrival, the more-than-thirty people were immediately settled at the barrack square. And under the gaze of over a thousand Dragon City Guards, they took the oath of allegiance to Dragon City Master Bedivere and Dragon City Archbishop Rowan and accepted the blessings.

The content of the oath was not harsh. It was mainly about not divulging Dragon City’s methods to third parties, not damaging the interests of Dragon City, etc. The binding of the oath was not too strong.

Because in her time, the strict management of Dragon City Guard, as the core corps of the Kingdom, was very well known. Now, these Dragon City Guards had essentially become Bedivere’s private army, yet the management had slackened instead? In accordance with this degree of binding, it was actually very difficult to restrict the method of Dragon City from being divulged and limit the capability to mobilize Dragon City Guard.

It was no wonder that the situation of the present Dragon City was similar to that of loose sand.

However, at this time, the loose oath was a good thing instead, as it would save them from being brought inconvenience by the oath when they later raise the opposition flag.

The oath-taking ceremony was conducted simultaneously by all new recruits, without exception, including Wang Lu. Although in Golden Flash Town he joined under the identity of a gigolo, upon arriving in Dragon City, the people in charge naturally could not take that seriously. They regarded him as an ordinary Dragon City Guard, allowing him to take part in the oath-taking ceremony. After the oath-taking ceremony, the new recruits were led by several Dragon City Guard officers to the barrack to settle down.

The Dragon City Guard accepted strict military management, but the individual living conditions were quite excellent. More than two thousand Dragon City Guards lived in the barracks area that occupied one-quarter of the total land of Dragon City. Each guard had an independent living space, which was different according to their level and strength, from a simple single room to courtyard villas, including all the basic necessities. Among them, the Bretton Dragon Clan bloodline received preferential treatment by living in a villa. Even though they were just new recruits, they enjoyed the same treatment as that of a senior guard’s.

After entering the villa area while led by veterans, they settled down and familiarized with the surrounding. In the process, they had astonishing discoveries.

Living in the same villa area were many previously selected Dragon Clan bloodline! And since most of them came from Golden Flash Town, they soon recognized each other and exchanged greetings.

Wang Lu and Aya were astonished: Holy Light Religion told them that they had purified the blood of Bretton Dragon Clan. This information was acquired by them from the Holy Light priest that became the administrator of Golden King’s Treasure House personally. Later in Golden Flash Town, the things they observed seemed to have confirmed this: In the name of Dragon City, Holy Light Religion rounded up the Dragon Clan bloodline and escorted them to Dragon City, seemingly to accept purification...

But now, it looked like the first several steps were true, but after the Dragon bloodline entered Dragon City, they seemed to be still alive and kicking, not lacking any arms and legs, nor was there any mass blood sacrifice.
