Chapter 82 The Encounters of Luojin Town.

"Yes, your strength is indeed impressive. Once I reach adolescence, I will surely be able to match you," Orpheus said reservedly.

Finland sneered: "Once I've accomplished a great feat and commissioned some inscriptions from a master, I'll instantly gain power comparable to a fully grown dragon. What is yours then?"

Monrent laughed: "I really hope what you're saying is true and not just bragging, otherwise I'll be very disappointed."

“Alright, Elena, take me to see the great dragon, let me witness his power.” Monrent looked at Elena.

Elena shook her head: "I'm sorry, I have to go on a business trip and can't take you to meet the lord. Actually, I would like to ask you to come with us."

Monrent frowned: "Trading? That's troublesome. However, it seems that for the sake of the great dragon, I can endure it and go with you. If we encounter a powerful enemy, you can leave it to me to deal with."

Elena: "Okay, thank you for your help."

And so, this tiny "caravan" was joined by the sub-giant Monrent.

The extraordinary creatures of the Sandy Mountains are all wild.

If you act ordinary, you will be targeted by omnipresent monsters as you walk through this world.

Monrent was a big, ugly fellow who looked terrifying. Even the monsters didn't want to mess with him.

And so, they lived in peace, traveling thousands of miles until they arrived at the renowned town of Luojin.

Upon reaching the vicinity of Luojin Town, the number of extraordinary creatures that could be seen increased dramatically.

With a large number of superhumans, it was impossible for them to live in peace; fights and brawls were a common sight. Of course, all of this happened outside the town.

After they arrived, some monsters also set their sights on Elena and her companions.

The baby dragon sisters, in particular, are the most alluring.

Most superhumans would love to have them.

For them, baby dragons are like a moving treasure trove.

Whether you kill and eat them, capture them alive, train them as mounts, or sell them to wealthy people who offer bounties, you can reap huge profits.

In short, baby dragons are very rare and there is no market for them.

Monrente finally had a chance to make a move.

It must be said, he is indeed not weak.

He could easily deal with any ordinary superhuman, no matter how many there were.

However, the more powerful something is, the more attention it attracts. At the same time, it also easily attracts the attention of the powerful.

Soon, a Gold-level superhuman who had been blocking the way and intending to rob them jumped out.

There are also a large number of weak superhumans taking advantage of the chaos.

At this point, Elena had no choice but to take matters into her own hands.

Elena is very powerful; when she goes all out, she surpasses even the Gold level.

With such strength, one would definitely be among the top experts in Luojin Town.

The superhumans drawn by greed were easily defeated by her, and a large number of them were killed.

This moment intimidated some onlookers, but also stirred up restless superhumans who wanted to kill them.

Immediately afterwards, Elena took out a dark red dragon scale, which emitted a dragon's might like a storm, covering the entire area.

"We are merchants from the Flame Serpent Canyon. This time, Lord Roloroa, the new master of the canyon, has also asked us to recruit followers. Anyone who wants to pledge allegiance to a legendary dragon, come over here." After explaining loudly, Elena ignored the reactions of the superhumans around her and walked directly into Rogin Town.

...

"Oh, these are baby dragons! But why are they missing one of their wings?" The extraordinary individuals in the town were making bold pronouncements.

"Dragons and giants, actually staying together? Aren't they aliens from the two races?"

"That human woman is said to be comparable to a transcendent master. How infuriating! A lowly human actually possesses such power; even demons would envy her."

"This is a really strange combination."

"That woman just shouted that the ruler of the Flame Serpent Canyon, the giant dragon Roloroa, is recruiting followers? That's pretty good."

“I will not become a slave to a dragon unless he offers me a great deal of benefit.”

"I can go and see. I'm really curious to know what's so great about the dragon Roloroa. If he's weak, then I'll find someone to kill him."

...

"Hey, Roloroa, the newest ruler of the Flame Serpent Canyon, are you really going to recruit servants?" Suddenly, a mantis-man jumped out and blocked Elena's way.

Before Elena could explain, Finland said impatiently, "Of course it's true. Our lord is short-handed right now. If you go, even if you don't get any treasure, you'll definitely get the most basic supernatural knowledge, spell manuals, and the like."

The Mantis Man didn't mind Finland's attitude; after all, it was a dragon, albeit a wounded and crippled one.

"Then I want to join you," the mantis said eagerly.

He is a member of the insectoid race, and his strength is quite good; he is a Bronze Level 8 extraordinary creature.

“You are too weak. From now on, you will be my subordinate. Only those extraordinary individuals of Silver rank and above are qualified to meet Lord Roloroa in person and receive his blessing,” Finland said righteously.

Upon hearing this, the mantis hesitated.

Finland continued, "We are Roloroa's most important family members. If you follow me, it's no different from following Lord Roloroa."

These words finally made the mantis man make up his mind.

With the Mantis people as role models, plus the magical manuals and such mentioned by the Finns, it was indeed very attractive.

From then on, new extraordinary individuals will voluntarily join.

However, their strength is basically quite ordinary.

Silver grade is the rarest.

As for the gold grade, there wasn't a single one.

A gold-level transcendent being is considered a minor expert in most places, and it has its pride. It's impossible for it to easily submit to a dragon like Roloroa, whom it has never even met.

As time went by, the number of Elena and her group of superhumans increased.

By this time, with more subordinates, Elena and her team had an easier time.

At least now we have a guide in Rogin Town.

The baby snake's large box has also been taken by monsters.

...

"Lady Elena, this Robos district is the largest materials market in Rogin Town. If you need materials, this is the most suitable place to buy them," the first mantis said, leading Elena to a bustling street.

Elena nodded: "Yes, thank you for your help."

The praying man smiled and said, "It is my honor to serve you."

Next, Elena had the baby dragon sisters and Monrent watch over the newly joined superhumans, while she herself went into the neighborhood with the mantis.

She planned to sell all the materials she had, including the baby snake, and then buy some materials that Loya needed.

...

Among the crowd, two mysterious figures dressed in black cloaks cautiously observed Elena's profile.

“She must be Her Highness, right?” a mysterious person said excitedly.

Another mysterious figure said, "It is indeed Princess Elena. I didn't expect her to still be alive after being missing for so long. Moreover, that young dragon seems to be something the kingdom needs."

"However, something is clearly not right." Mysterious Man 1 analyzed: "Logically speaking, Her Highness should have contacted us on her own initiative. At the same time, she has become so much stronger. According to the monsters we met earlier, Her Highness is comparable to a transcendent master. She has even become a subordinate of Roloroa, the new ruler of the Flame Serpent Canyon."

Mysterious Man 2: "Don't overthink it. His Highness would never betray the kingdom. What we need to do now is meet with His Highness and have a talk."

The mysterious man nodded: "That's right, let's go quickly."

...

Although they couldn't go shopping or earn money with Elena, the young dragon sisters were still very busy, as monsters kept approaching them to ask about Roloroa. Some of these monsters even brought out little treasures to curry favor with them. This excited the sisters greatly.

“I, Lal, am willing to represent the Lanwo kobold tribe and submit completely to Lord Roloroya.”

Soon, monsters submitted.

Moreover, it involved the entire tribe submitting.

Ophie glanced at the gray-haired kobold in front of her, nodded indifferently. Such monsters were weak, and even if there were many of them, she didn't care. She believed that Loya wouldn't care too much either.

However, it's perfectly acceptable for this kind of scoundrel to be a slave, do some manual labor, or even be cannon fodder.

...

In a dark room somewhere in Luojin Town.

A werewolf covered in black and red fur was fast asleep on the floor.

He clearly possesses the power of the fire element; when he breathes, scorching hot air comes out of his nostrils. Being near him feels unbearably hot.

"Fire-Eating Demon Wolf - Int." Suddenly, a hoarse, ethereal voice rang out in the darkness.

Immediately afterwards, a faint white light appeared, illuminating the dark room.

The wolf, who was fast asleep, suddenly opened its eyes.

"Ah, it's my master calling me," Int said with a hint of mockery.

The owner of the voice ignored Int's attitude and commanded, "Two young dragons have arrived in town."

Yinte nodded: "Master, I understand. I will capture them immediately to be your test subjects. Perhaps you can steal the dragon's bloodline and become the legendary Black Witch Dragon Demon."

The master interrupted Intel, "These two young dragons are accompanied by master-level experts."

Intel shrank back, "I can't beat that."

The master continued, "Behind them, there is an even more powerful dragon, Roloroa."

Inter exclaimed, "This is a tough opponent! My beloved master, I can't beat him. You should find another servant to help, or you can take action yourself."

Master: "They are recruiting followers. I need you to infiltrate and investigate Roloroa's strength. If he is not as strong as me, then these three dragons in front of us will all be mine."

Int breathed a sigh of relief. Damn, he was really afraid his master would send him to attack the Master + Dragon. Now, being an undercover agent, although dangerous, was safe as long as he was careful.

"I understand, I'll go right away," Int said impatiently. "Master, just watch my performance."

...

Elena worked for more than half an hour before she sold all the baby snakes and materials.

Just as she was about to buy the treasure Loya wanted, two mysterious figures dressed in black cloaks appeared beside her.

One of them quickly formed hand seals and made five or six gestures.

This isn't some kind of supernatural magic; it's just a simple hand gesture.

However, Elena was stunned when she saw it.

"My lord, what's wrong?" The mantis man was still following behind Elena. He was a little confused when he saw that Elena was not moving.

"It's nothing, you can go back now. What happens next is not for you to get involved in." Three seconds later, Elena came to her senses. She didn't turn her head, her expression full of inscrutable mystery.

The mantis was very honest, mainly because Elena was powerful enough. He immediately turned and walked away.

“Please come with me,” said the mysterious man 1.

"Kaz?" Elena asked tentatively when she heard the voice.

“Your Highness, it is I.” The mysterious man nodded.

"Ahem." Another mysterious person 2 coughed lightly: "Your Highness, time is of the essence, we are eager to know everything."

Elena instantly recognized the identity of the mysterious man 2. She was excited and delighted: "Molly?"

Katz nodded: "Your memory is excellent, we are indeed Katz and Moris."

...

Soon after, the three of them arrived at an empty courtyard.

This is where Moris and Katz are temporarily staying.

"Your Highness, can you explain what happened to you during this time?" Kaz pulled down his cloak, revealing the serious face of a middle-aged man.

Elena hesitated and pondered, trying to figure out how to say it without violating the taboo of Loya's soul imprint and slave mark.

According to the settings of these two things, she cannot reveal Loya's identity or detailed information, nor can she run away without a reason. Otherwise, even if Loya is not controlling these two things, she may still trigger the forbidden setting of the soul imprint, resulting in an instant and tragic death, or losing the ability to speak.

From this perspective, this thing seems to have no solution.

That's why she used to feel so helpless.

Let's get back to the main topic.

Although this thing is terrifying, Koloa had limited time and didn't manage to create a 100% perfect limit on the extreme situation.

Other trivial matters, however, can be mentioned.

At the same time, she was also praying that Loya was no longer paying attention to her.

Or, it would be even better if the soul imprint temporarily rendered Loya's ability to spy ineffective because the distance between the two parties was far enough.

The existence of Koloa is simply incredible.

The limits of ordinary people do not represent the limits of Loya.

Even at this distance, Loya could still cast his gaze over and spy on her.

After a long while, Elena finally opened her mouth to speak.

"Initially, I planned to come and join the reinforcements sent by my father."

“But then I encountered the dragon Roloroa and was captured and taken to the Flame Serpent Canyon. To survive, and to avoid losing the green dragon cub forever, I chose to submit to Roloroa and call him my master. He also branded me with a soul mark and a slave mark, robbing me of my freedom and imposing many restrictions on me, making it difficult to escape his control.” Elena spoke with some difficulty. After finishing, she breathed a sigh of relief, because the forbidden setting had not been triggered.

This was only half true, but the two humans in front of them believed it.

"How dare that evil dragon treat the kingdom's princess like this!" Moris clenched his fists in anger.

"I will inform the great king immediately and have him send a master dragon slayer," Kaz said, his tone filled with murderous intent.

Elena quickly shook her head and blew hard at Roloa: "No, Roloa is very powerful. He is absolutely comparable to a legend. This is not an enemy that the kingdom can deal with right now. At the same time, Roloa is very ruthless. If something goes wrong, both the young dragon and I will surely perish with him."

Kaz had no choice but to remain silent upon hearing this.

Moris stomped his foot, shattering the earth and creating a two-meter-deep crater. He cried out in fury, "What a cunning and vicious dragon! Is there really no way out for us?"

To be honest, he was somewhat desperate.

Elena took a deep breath: "Yes, he will. He promised me he would let me go. It just might take decades."

In her view, once Loya reaches Legendary or even Epic status and has sufficient self-defense capabilities, he will no longer need her. At that point, Loya might release her.

Of course, it's also possible that he could just casually kill her.

As for Loya's previous assurances, Elena couldn't fully believe them. But at the time, she had no choice but to believe them.
