My Weekly Refreshing Mentor Spirit-Chapter 262 - 246: I Thought It Was a Speed Bump

Ah, Xue Dili suddenly had another idea.

Since the Dragon Race is so familiar with the Divine Wood Seed, and Blue Star still hasn't finished clearing the seed from his body, why not have them help with the cleanup?

Blue Star gets rid of the parasites, Xue Dili directly outsources the labor without any benefits, and the Dragon Race harvests the purest and most enriching energy from the Divine Wood—this isn't a win-win-win situation?

Anyway, Xue Dili refuses to absorb the energy from the Divine Wood; it disgusts him. He originally planned to familiarize himself with the Modifier and then sweep through each Parallel World to clear the weeds and destroy them physically.

Well, now we have a group of grass-planting experts, who, on the other hand, must also be experts at weeding.

These weeds can also be put to some good use.

Ah, what a great help.

A group of Dragon Elders began to discuss how to consume this thing—some say grind it into powder, others suggest it should be roasted.

Many who haven't tasted it yet but felt the magic power in the air began to drool involuntarily.

As the Dragons were discussing matters, they seemed to automatically elect a new Dragon King.

To Xue Dili's surprise, the new king wasn't one of the elders but a very young-looking Dragon lady.

"Thank you for everything. From now on, the Dragon Race and the bulk rat clan are eternal partners, entrusted to each other's backs, relying on each other as eternal allies," the young lady extended her hand and said seriously.

Xue Dili: "..."

They're really not called the bulk rat clan…

Oh well, whatever, bulk rats it is then.

Xue Dili also extended his hand and surprisingly felt the young Dragon lady was actually near the strength of Quasi-5th Tier; he was taken aback.

This strong?

Where did she come from?

"My father… the previous Violent Dragon God…" she said.

Xue Dili: "..."

So it was Big Cousin's daughter. Speaking of which, why aren't you angry after I killed your brother without regret?

When the World Consciousness was synthesized at its peak, this girl should have been among those standing behind him.

Xue Dili couldn't help but think of the last scene of the Violent Dragon God with a clueless yet relieved expression—was he really seeing his daughter behind Xue Dili?

Then the girl said to the Violent Dragon God, "Father, your daughter is here to kill you! Goodbye, father, and my cowardice…"

Xue Dili felt a headache coming on.

"I will be the next Violent Dragon God. You may call me the Silver Dragon King or simply by my name, Gabriela Fischer Nidenghogg Erlangxia…"

"Stop, stop! I'll just call you Silver Dragon King, and you can call me Guardian. Let's stick to titles…" Xue Dili thought the girl was a bit naive.

Is there really a need to say the full name?

Unlike her old man, who only seemed to enjoy fighting, this girl looks a bit dim-witted but is strong, clearly inheriting her father's talent and strength in magic power.

Clearly, Xue Dili understood the intentions of the Elder Council.

A not-so-smart but very strong leader who is also female, a descendant of the previous Dragon King, and seems to have no ambition or desire—this is the perfect leader archetype.

Later, they could coax this silly leader into taking maternity leave, best if she doesn't interfere in internal power and politics, and then power firmly stays in the hands of the Elder Council, while the silly girl takes the blame if problems arise.

Truly… Liu Chan… no, a Liu Chan-style leader.

The series of twists and turns in their scheming, politics, and all that, brought on a brainstorming session in Xue Dili's mind, as he wondered if this child being chosen as Violent Dragon God is meant to facilitate communication with him?

Suddenly, Xue Dili thought that the Elders actually had some skills, almost like an entire Civil Servant Group.

But this is their family business, and maybe the Elders just want to find a leader to take the fall, Xue Dili can't interfere.

Shaking hands with the Silver Dragon King to solidify their alliance agreement, the Dragon Race agrees to adhere to the four basic principles of the bulk rat Patriarch: not interfering with the bulk rat family affairs, not revealing their identities before the bulk rat family, not engaging in large-scale bloody conflicts with the bulk rat family, and adhering to the existing laws of the bulk rat clan…

Both parties reached a friendly agreement, establishing a mutually beneficial bilateral alliance while striving for peace and progress towards a shared goal.

...

"Hey, northwest of Salem Town (37°17'N, 80°03'W), come over here." Xue Dili made a call to an acquaintance and added, "By the way, are Old Austin, Howard, and those from Greece with you? If so, come together, there's something important here."

On the other end, Doctor Xue Dili: "..."

He was calling his counterpart in the Parallel World, the doctor Xue, who is obsessed with medicine and biological research.

Soon, a large truck arrived, and when it stopped, Xue Dili saw his familiar friends.

"Hector!"

"Xediles!"

The two bumped fists, and others gradually got off the truck, staring blankly at the tens of thousands of… dragons?

The Dragons filled the dense forest around Salem Town. Fortunately, this place is a no-man's land, or it would have caused a worldwide stir.

"This is..." Old Austin, who had just gotten off the truck, was also stunned, unable to believe his eyes.

Dragons? And so many dragons?

What the heck? Where did Xue Dili manage to gather so many giant dragons in the past few days? And these dragons are frighteningly powerful, practically invincible in this world without magic.

Not to mention a world without magic; they were originally weapons of war, and these things could topple all of Olympus in the Divine Era except for Zeus.

Even Typhon could be crushed.

This overwhelming power left the group momentarily at a loss, and after Xue Dili explained the situation...

Their expressions turned even more peculiar.

"You're saying we need to accommodate these tens of thousands of giant dragons?" Doctor Xue, with dark circles under his eyes and looking like he hadn't slept well, glanced at Xue Dili. "Why don't we just merge our efforts? You can handle this headache yourself."

Xue Dili: "..."

Seriously, how can you be so lazy?

And after their conversation, Xue Dili learned about their situation.

After Xue Dili left, Hector and a few others took the lead to establish a mercenary company and directly bought up all the uninhabited areas of Salem Town, though they hadn't had a chance to start clearing them yet.

The company's members were from the previous Savior squad, and their goal was to eliminate the plant monsters, so they formed a company to cover their tracks. Meanwhile, the mercenary company allowed them to combat plant monsters globally while also making money.

The company had just been established and was funded by loans from Old Green and Howard.

But they do have strength, having directly borrowed several billion, who knows from which rich kid they robbed.

In any case, they formed the company and are preparing to make a grand plan.

"Your chosen location overlaps with ours; we just bought this land... Never mind, let this be the dragons' home, and we'll find another place to establish our company..." Old Green scratched his head.

In reality, this area is vast and sparsely populated, and after that previous disaster, the land here was dirt cheap. They had just purchased thousands of hectares of uninhabited forest as a base, suitable for conducting some discreet research and training.

But for now, let these thousands of hectares serve as a temporary home for the dragons, and later we'll set up a large mystical barrier. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Moreover, if the dragons turn back into human form, retract their tails and other features, they'd just be considered cosplay in the human world, not much of an issue.

So, with Xue Dili acting as a bridge, he negotiated with the Silver Dragon King and the Elder Council among the dragons, reaching a basic agreement.

It's worth mentioning that the Dragon Race respects Doctor Xue highly; they might think he's Xue Dili's twin, hence their politeness.

"Seeing how the Dragon Race trusts you so much, you should handle the diplomatic affairs on this side," Hector joked as he patted Doctor Xue's shoulder.

"Give me a break; if this continues, I'll die suddenly."

"But we're a mercenary company; can we recruit the dragon people to work as enforcers for us?" someone asked.

"Can we marry dragon ladies?" This was Howard, the widowed groom's voice.

Xue Dili: "..."

Others: "..."

Naturally, someone dragged Howard out for a beating. These ancestors of the Greeks taught Howard a lesson like disciplining a grandson, a light and easy matter.

There are many issues, many problems: the Dragon Race's habitat problem, how the Dragon Race will integrate into this world, how to not draw the attention of the neurotic mold, and many other trivial matters that one must consider.

After all, relocating tens of thousands of dragons, Xue Dili just shrugged it off and left the mess for them to handle.

All Xue Dili needs to consider is taking the Dragon Race home, but for his group here, there's much more to think about.

"Forget it, too many problems, no point in panicking, let's deal with it tomorrow. Let's just designate this area for their self-governance, and I'll handle the mold and the government," Old Austin finally said.

This was the simplest solution. Among them, they would quickly contact sufficient resources, and soon the area around Salem, extending several hundred kilometers, would fall under their control. After all, this region is vast and sparsely populated, still recovering from that great disaster.

In summary, it's chaotic, but it's also slowly recovering.

"Let's eat before we go. Our base isn't far," Hector said, patting the truck's steering wheel.

He's already learned how to drive.

"Alright, I'll leave after a meal," Xue Dili said.

After greeting the Dragon Race, the group left. The dragons, knowing that the forest and nearby mountain tops were their territory, began their construction in full swing.

Hector and Xue Dili chatted about their recent amusing stories, the latest election blame games in America, and Xue Dili's image becoming a new superhero in this world, among other topics...

The truck rambled along the country road, until suddenly, it gave a lurch, as if it hit something.

The people in the truck were momentarily stunned, hoping they hadn't really run someone over. They quickly got out to check, discovering a plant monster smashed to bits by the truck, half lodged in the wheel and half flung far.

Xue Dili: "..."

It seems bringing the Dragon Race over to gnaw on these plant monsters and any remaining Divine Wood is quite necessary, isn't dragon gnawing on roots a tradition?

Dragons are supposed to gnaw on roots... right?

"Oh, it's this thing again, no need to call insurance, let's get going, I thought it was a speed bump," Hector said as he got back into the truck, driving away without even clearing the plants and spores from the wheels.
