Apocalypse Lord-Chapter 56 - 54: First Negotiation with the Giant Dragon

Chapter 56: Chapter 54: First Negotiation with the Giant Dragon

Lin Lan organized the information in his mind, and after a moment, he came to a conclusion:

The weight of history is still pursuing the Giant Dragon race.

Good heavens, are they just exploiting one race?

Insight flashed in Lin Lan’s eyes; not only does his territory have the bionic Mechanical Servants from the Quaternary Era, but also the explosive historical information about the Sun Mine, no wonder that Dragon Lady was crushed unable to move...

At the same time, he sounded an alarm in his heart.

Whether in the past or present, as long as civilization continues to develop, ’weight’ will definitely exist, like a sword of Damocles hanging over people’s heads.

The only difference is, the world in the past collapsed very rapidly, while the continent now collapses extremely slowly, causing people immersed in dreams to see the Doragon as a scourge.

A high reward for the heads of Doragon People?

The price the dragons pay for bearing history ends up becoming their sin?

It’s truly pathetic and sad...

"Lord Roland, I recognize the Witch beside the King of Pirates."

Wendy also joined the conversation at this time.

The blue-eyed girl sat upright, earnestly saying, "Her name is Lucia, she’s the most famous defector from the White Tower Academy."

"Tell me more." Lin Lan became interested.

"Senior Lucia is the granddaughter of Deputy Dean Eli, and has an extremely high talent in mechanical engineering. When I first entered the school, she had already skipped ahead to become a ’Six Tier student’, one of the academy’s undisputed geniuses." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Wendy recalled softly, "She is more obsessed with maritime adventures than anyone else, and thus resisted the desk job arranged for her by the Dean."

"And on the day of the graduation ceremony, she disappeared from the academy, leaving only a farewell letter in the dormitory."

The girl’s eyes were somewhat complex: "Eli was heartbroken over this..."

"But I remember the White Tower Academy has always been closed management, and the guards are very strict..."

Ed speculated on the side: "Could Lucia have been forcibly abducted by that King of Pirates?"

"Senior left voluntarily, on the night of the ceremony, she used a self-made Gear Bomb to blow open three walls of the academy."

Wendy shook her head and recounted, "Amidst the panic of the tutors and students, Senior Lucia successfully escaped the academy along the secret passage she spent months digging under the main entrance."

Ed: ...

Lin Lan’s mouth twitched as well.

One can only say that girl was indeed a talent, forcefully putting on a play of ’White Tower Academy’s Redemption’ for the teachers and students, right?

"I roughly understand the identities of those two now..."

He pondered for a moment, then stood up: "I’m going to meet them again."

"Lord, Doragon People are naturally violent, and that King of Pirates is the best among them..."

Ed looked worried, hesitating to speak.

"Rest assured, Bai will protect me." Lin Lan waved his hand: "You’ve seen her strength."

Ed glanced at the silent white-haired maid, and was somewhat relieved.

He and Wendy had long known of Lord Roland’s mysterious and mighty girl by his side.

"Also, Ed,"

Lin Lan lightly patted the man’s shoulder: "If I tell you now that Doragon People are not actually the ’source of calamity’ as scholars say, what would you think?"

Ed’s expression immediately turned a bit puzzled: "What do you mean by that?"

"In my territory, the first thing managers have to rid themselves of is ’prejudice’."

Lin Lan smiled: "You need to learn to use your eyes to observe more, ears to listen more, and mind to think more, just like Wendy."

The blue-eyed girl’s cheeks reddened slightly.

"Come with me to meet them, Wendy, Ed."

Lin Lan came to the door, slowly twisted the handle.

He knew that the ’stereotypes’ in people’s minds are actually very hard to eliminate, even the upright and resolute Alliance officers harbor hostility and fear towards ’Doragon’.

After all, the truth has long been buried by the end, and the Celestial Calamity nurtures fear and hatred in people’s hearts continuously, under such circumstances, loudly calling for truth is completely unrealistic.

Let’s start bit by bit.

What he can do now is to build a small platform for everyone to communicate with each other.

At this moment, Lin Lan seemed to understand a little of the dying request of the old Historian.

Do not give up on them, do not give up on the future, do not give up on hope...

You’re really giving me a hard time here, old man.

Lin Lan laughed silently, pushed the door open firmly.

The next moment, the clamoring voices immediately filled everyone’s ears.

"I warn you, we’re not to be trifled with!"

The Blond Witch had already awakened.

She struggled with all her might, like a little squirrel who had been provoked, shouting:

"We are official personnel of the Alliance Academy... Yes, official personnel! As soon as we lose contact, the Alliance’s army will arrive here!"

Lin Lan burst into laughter.

Wendy also covered her mouth with a light chuckle, even the serious Ed turned away.

Truly embarrassing for the Alliance’s citizens.

"What are you laughing at!" Lucia’s little face turned red, flailing around rolling on the ground: "Untie us quickly!"

"Untie you?"

Lin Lan glanced at her, retorting without hesitation: "It was you who first snuck into my territory, tried to intimidate my soldiers, and even eavesdropped on my thoughts without permission."

He snorted coldly: "If you keep shouting, I’ll shut your mouth!"

Lucia’s long ears instantly drooped.

"This... was our fault, but we can negotiate, I mean, compensation is also possible."

Her voice grew smaller and smaller: "How can you randomly insult someone as a small fry..."

"Name your price, young man?"

The Pirate Leader with the high ponytail leaned against the wall, tilted her mouth upwards, showing a sincere and brilliant smile.

"As long as you’re willing to help us solve the problem, no matter how much you want, it’s not a problem~"

She even winked like a bright and cheerful big sister: "We actually have a lot of money~"

Ed: ...

He stared at the black-haired woman’s face with some suspicion, wondering if he had mistaken her for someone else.

Regardless, he indeed felt a certain impression in his heart crumbling.

Since when did Doragon people become so easy to talk to?

But at this moment, Lin Lan stepped forward, directly meeting the other’s vertical pupils, and actively ended the somewhat humorous topic.

"Let’s be honest with each other, Black-winged Calamity Master."

He sat in front of the Dragon Girl, his tone turning cold: "I’ve run out of patience to listen to your nonsense."

The atmosphere in the room instantly dropped to freezing point.

Lucia’s breath deflated, Wendy and Ed’s expressions turned somewhat tense.

Eleanor stared directly at Lin Lan’s eyes, her demeanor completely changing at this moment.

Violent, cold-blooded, ruthless, mad...

Those terrifying scarlet vertical pupils flickered with a fierce light ready to devour someone, in a trance, Lin Lan seemed to see a huge black shadow whipping up a monstrous storm in the ocean.

"Listen, no one can stop Doragon people, Star Desecrator."

Her throat resonated with a layer of majestic sound, as if the ground trembled with this voice!

"I just don’t want to stir up trouble in your territory, it’s no good for both you and me."

"Carefully weave an oppressive environment against Doragon people, what are you planning to do? Cut off my head, and exchange it for bounty and status in the Alliance or Empire?"

The King of Pirates snorted: "Save it, monsters like us have no place in this world!"
