Chapter 219: 217 What a Coincidence_1
Translator: 549690339
Loess City, just like its name, had its city walls almost entirely built using loess soil.
This kind of building material could be found everywhere in Dragon Bone Wasteland and was inexpensive and readily available, but it had almost no other advantages.
Just like Black Gold City, Loess City has the largest feature of city-states in Dragon Bone Wasteland, which is no restriction on the race of people entering or leaving.
As long as you follow the rules here, whether you are an orc, an elf, or a human, you are welcome.
Following behind a desert scorpion man, Otto let Sofia sit on his shoulder and slowly walked to the entrance of Loess City.
At the entrance, there were only two centaurs for a rough check. When Otto walked up with Sofia on his shoulder, they did not find anything wrong and let the two in without any hassle.
Sitting on Otto’s shoulder and looking at the surrounding poor streetscape, Sofia was somewhat puzzled, “Is this really Black Gold City? It doesn’t seem much better than Kor Town…”
“No, this is Loess City. To get to Black Gold City, we still need to travel some distance.”
Otto chuckled in response, while also taking a glance at the surrounding scenery.
Indeed, judging from the surrounding buildings, this place was not much stronger than the already destroyed Kor Town.
Rather than Loess City, it seemed more appropriate to call it Loess Town.
However, they did encounter a large number of different races on the way here.
Not long after entering, Otto had already spotted gnolls, lizardmen, humans and even forest elves.
More importantly, they seemed to get along quite well.
Although they were not close enough to become blood brothers, at least they could sit peacefully together for business talks or transactions.
The freedom-loving trade federation was indeed extraordinary.
However, there didn’t seem to be anything else worth paying attention to. Just as Otto was about to leave with Sofia, a crowd gathered in front of a shop caught his eye.
In his previous life, as a member of a planting family, it was natural to join in the excitement, especially when he had nothing important to do.
After pushing through the crowd with Sofia, Otto finally saw the situation inside the crowd.
At a glance, it seemed that a blue-haired girl was having some conflict with a strong centaur.
Not only that, but he also saw a familiar face in the crowd.
The female centaur standing next to that strong centaur in heavy armor wasn’t Rita, the leader of the Swift Spear Clan?
Subsequently, he learned from the onlookers what had happened.
Simply put, the blue-haired girl had hunted a ground dragon and sent its corpse to Loess City to exchange it for gold coins or living supplies.
However, she had some conflicts with the merchant receiving the goods regarding the price.
By coincidence, the owner of the shop was Para, the city lord of Loess City, who happened to stand alongside the strong centaur.
Moreover, the reason why both parties were arguing now was somewhat speechless to Otto.
In summary, the blue-haired girl thought that the other party’s offer was low, and she hoped they could give more gold coins.
However, the other party felt that the price was already very reasonable. If the blue-haired girl was unwilling to accept, she could take the ground dragon corpse to other places.
Unexpectedly, the blue-haired girl had a monopolistic style, and the other party had to call the shop owner, Para, the city lord of Loess City, when they had no choice left.
It seemed that Para, a centaur with a polished manner, was still able to calmly argue with the blue-haired girl despite being blatantly unreasonable.
Suddenly, Otto asked a nearby lizardman, “Friend, can you tell me at what price this blue-haired woman put on her prey?”
The lizardman looked up and down at Otto and found that he was also a dragonborn, so he felt an instant connection. He raised a finger with some helplessness.
“Is it one Imperial Gold Moon?”
The lizardman shook his head, so Otto guessed again, “It can’t be 100 Imperial Gold Moons, can it?”
This would be a bit excessive. After all, when Otto was sold to the capital of Lait Kingdom, Serbia, he was worth only about twenty gold moons at most.
But who would have thought, the lizardman still shook his head, and finally said with a twitching mouth, “It’s ten thousand gold moons…”
Upon hearing this, Otto’s expression was almost as speechless as the lizardman’s.
Ten thousand…
Why not just rob someone!
Otto rolled his eyes at the blue-haired girl, who was still persistently arguing with Para, who was now yelling completely irrelevant words.
Her greed was simply comparable to a dragon, and looking at her, Otto felt a bit sympathetic towards Para…
Wait, a dragon?
Otto suddenly looked stiffly at Sofia sitting on his shoulder.
She flashed him a bright smile, and after being with Otto for so many years, she could easily understand his thoughts. She nodded and laughed, “Congratulations, you guessed it! Her true form is a blue dragon.
If I’m not mistaken, she should be the Wild Thunder, Welin, who has been playing the adventurer game in Dragon Bone Wasteland…”
What a coincidence…
However, it seemed that they only needed to worry about Konoheim, who might have left some sort of back-up plan for Welin due to his daughter complex.
Furious Thunder Welin, if she’s still just an elderly blue dragon, she won’t possibly pose any threat to Otto now.
Moreover, it was worth mentioning that Rita, the leader of the Swift Spear Clan, had been standing nearby for a while.
It seemed that she had not noticed the blue-haired girl as the owner of the Thunder Legion they had been waiting for for two hundred years.
Just as Otto was thinking about this, Rita, who had been standing quietly on one side, suddenly pointed at Sofia on Otto’s shoulder and exclaimed, “It’s you!”
At this, Otto was startled for a moment, and then he remembered that it was normal for Rita to have seen Sofia on the battlefield and remember her appearance.
“It seems that things have become complicated…”
Due to Rita’s sudden movement, a group of centaurs wielding long spears pointed their weapons at Otto and Sofia.
Some of them had escaped here with Rita back then, so naturally, some of them recognized Sofia too.
The people who were originally standing around Otto and Sofia immediately scattered and moved a safe distance away while also fully exposing them.
“What’s going on?”
Para looked puzzled at Otto and Sofia and then turned his gaze to Rita.
Rita hesitated for a long time before suddenly deflating and waving her hand, “Everyone, put down your weapons. I mistook her for someone else…”
