Unlike Li Aili, who had drunk the Giant Transformation Potion and beaten up a dragon, the scout, who came from a refugee background, was terrified.

They frantically tried to sound the alarm.

However, Li Aili stopped the terrified scouts.

"This is not a fully grown dragon."

"The Golden Knight can handle it. Don't let it affect the shopping festival." Li Aili took out her newly bought arcane megaphone and calmly gave the order.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

The voices of the Golden Knights came through the small microphone.

Li Ai Li's arcane telescope locked onto the flying dragon.

As someone who had drunk three bottles of giantification potion and pinned an adult dragon to the ground to scrape its scales, she was not afraid of the two sub-adult red dragons that flew in.

If the knights can't defeat them, there are still alchemical potions.

There's no giant creature that three bottles of giantification potion can't handle.

If so, then drink a few more bottles.

On the other hand, among those who came to participate in the Emerald City Shopping Festival this time, there were quite a few hidden masters.

They even spotted the approaching dragon earlier.

Wearing a black cloak, she stuffed a centaur ponytail into her spatial ring.

"Teacher, we've already bought the centaur's tail. Didn't you say that dragons were coming from the Dragon Dynasty?"

"Let's hurry up and leave!" the young man in the black cloak said in a low voice.

The old man walking in front of him walked steadily and said calmly, "Why are you walking? They're just two little dragon cubs."

The young man was taken aback. "Are you going to help?"

The old man strolled around casually and came across an arcane supplies shop run by an arcane mage.

"Hetui! What bad luck!" The old man spat at the shop.

The two men in black cloaks walked a few more steps and saw a long queue.

Even though they knew that dragons were flying towards them, the two were not afraid and were even in the mood to watch the excitement.

The elderly man in the black cloak said, "Go and ask what people are queuing up to buy here."

"Yes, teacher."

The young man jogged to the end of the line and approached a kind-looking woman. "Excuse me, what are we queuing for in this line?"

The lady was dressed modestly, but she wore a set of pearl jewelry.

"They're selling Tankar Elf Bread here."

The woman kindly said, "Young man, you need a discount coupon from the newspaper to buy anything in this line, and each person can only buy once."

The young man nodded. "Thank you for reminding me."

After saying that, he turned to leave.

But they stopped when they took a step.

The young man in the black cloak walked back to the woman and said in a low voice, "Madam, this place will soon be attacked by a dragon."

"You'd better find somewhere to hide quickly."

The woman looked surprised and uncertain.

The young man didn't care whether she believed him or not; he returned to his teacher and said, "Teacher, I've found out. They're selling Tankar Elf White Bread here."

"Unbelievable, this is actually true."

The two chatted as they strolled along the bustling commercial street.

The elderly man in the black cloak had a glint in his eye.

“We just asked those silly tree spirits, and what they said seems to be true.”

"The discounts on these goods were all paid for by the lords here themselves."

The young cloaked figure couldn't help but mutter, "The nobles here are either angels of God or complete idiots."

The elderly man in the black cloak chuckled and, in the tone of an elder, lectured the young man: "John, remember this: 'The one who always treats others as fools is the real fool.'"

The young man blushed slightly. "Yes, teacher."

The elderly man in the black cloak said slowly, "This used to be that infamous Black Street, Campbell."

The old man took out a gold coin from his pocket and said calmly, "Gold coins are found wherever there are people."

He raised his wrinkled hand, pointed to the crowds on the street, and asked, "Do you think the people here don't know that this place was originally Campbell's territory?"

The young man's eyes lit up. "I understand, teacher!"

The young man said eagerly, "They know that, but they are still attracted by the discounts of this shopping festival."

"Then, with a change in perception here, perhaps many poor people will stay!"

"It may seem that this nobleman spent money and did something foolish, but in fact, the lord here gained population!"

"Hiss! The lord here is truly extraordinary," the young man in the black cloak exclaimed.

The elderly man in the black cloak said smugly, "John, you've only seen the first layer."

The young man looked at his teacher with admiration.

"Next year, even if the city is packed with people, the lord will still hold this shopping festival as usual."

"At that time, the prices of many goods will rise, but perhaps the discount on elf bread will still exist."

"Like bait for fishing."

"Then, the price went up year by year. Of course, some smart people, like me, saw through the lord's trick."

"But there are always more fools than fools in this world."

After saying that, the elderly man in the black cloak asked patiently, "Alright, now I'll test you."

"A dragon is about to attack this city, so what are we staying here for?"

There are two golden knights on this street, one standing at one end and the other at the other.

At this moment, one person remained, looking warily at the azure sky.

The other person quietly left.

All of this was observed by the young man in the black cloak.

"It seems they've also discovered the two dragons," the elderly man in the black cloak said calmly.
