Full Time Mage Lord

  Chapter 447 Eternal Dragon Rider I

  The Tianshui River, the largest river in the Shenmin Continent, quietly passes through the beautiful city of Tianluo City and flows to the sea.

   This is the imperial capital of the largest eternal empire of the human family.

  From the era of chaos to the eternal era, the human race has crossed a long period of civilization, although scholars of this era have proved that the human race possessed an incomparably beautiful civilization thousands of years ago.

   But that's already a myth.

   Yes, it belongs to the myth in the hearts of only a few historians.

  In this era, at least it is a little better than the wild and chaotic.

  The emergence of the Eternal Empire has maintained a balance for all intelligent creatures on the continent.

   Peaceful balance.

  Undead, there are no undead in the world, but people who should have died have not died. They are called undead. They have a body with a dead heart.

  Being called the undead has already been labeled as evil. Therefore, since the day the evil came to the mainland, it has existed to knock the balance of peace.

  The demons, the stupid people of Lenterdam, since they were driven to the north and south of the mainland by the human family, they are not reconciled.

  The undead are not reconciled to living in the dark, they also yearn for the light.

  So, they sowed discord, formed an alliance with the demons and the Lentedams, and launched a war against the human race, elves, and dwarves.

  Facing the Lentedams, demons, and a large army of undead, humans, elves, and dwarves form a justice alliance to resist the invasion of evil.

  Twenty years later, after paying a huge price, the alliance finally won the final victory and expelled the people of Lentdam and the demons to the center of the continent, and to the barren area in the north to the cold land.

  Elves, originally weak in fertility, this protracted war made the elves weak.

  The same human family, the dwarves, have been hit hard to varying degrees.

  Of course, the people of Lentedam, the demons, and the undead didn't get any benefits. On the contrary, their lives became more difficult, because the area they were originally in was the barren land of the mainland.

  …

  Eternal Empire's imperial capital, Tianluo City, although this is the second time the Eternal Empire has moved its capital, it still cannot alleviate the many contradictions in the empire...

  Under the shroud of night, looking from a distance, there are brilliant lights everywhere, showing the prosperity and beauty of the imperial capital. However, like most imperial capitals, under this prosperous surface, poverty and hunger are buried deep...

  Tianluo City has two regions, east and west, the east is the richest, and the west is the poorest.

  West District, slums.

  Normally, nobles would not come here. This place is dirtier and smellier than their recycling bin.

The people who live here are the representatives of poverty and disease. If a child is born here, unfortunately, you can conclude that he will be the same as their parents in the future, except for some low-level jobs and occasionally going to the nobles. Pick up some of the waste they throw away from their recycling bins.

  Twenty years of war has made the giant of the Eternal Empire unable to withstand even its heart, the imperial capital, so an order was passed down to build a large number of recycling stations to terminate the contract.

   In other words, it is the gap between the rich and the poor that is difficult to eliminate.

  The empire has no way, at least, to keep the poor alive...

   Treat it as a kind of charity from the rich, and living is a kind of aristocratic ethos. In short, useless things must be thrown into the recycling bin.

  Scavenger is a somewhat upscale name that the poor give themselves, at least it is much better than that "Hey, whoever picks up the rags".

   The things that the nobles don't want are quite useful to them, and some of them can even be sold for some money. For this reason, some bullies have also appeared in the slums. Usually, these so-called bullies refer to occupying some relatively good things, including places like recycling bins, and they will not let them go.

  Tonight, it's Kira's turn to guard the recycle bin.

  Yes, the recycle bin needs someone to guard it, otherwise, the contents inside will be looted disorderly.

  Overbearing is also a kind of order.

   Of course, you can treat this behavior of occupying others as a profession, and Kira himself thinks so, so he works very hard.

  Kira was in a good mood at night. Not long ago, he picked up a **** lingerie from the recycling bin.

   This is undoubtedly a great thing for Kira, because it can be exchanged for ten copper coins.

In the current Eternal Empire, one copper coin can buy a loaf of bread. The long-term war has caused the resources of the Eternal Empire to become scarce. Fortunately, the discovery of the soul spar provides power for the machinery. Otherwise, every winter, One-tenth of the people in the Eternal Empire might freeze to death.

  Kira began to keep digging through the recycle bin, trying to find something to fill her stomach...

  …

   In the corner not far from the recycle bin, there are a few small shadows hiding at the moment. Judging from the height of their shadows, they should be some children.

  Obviously, what these children said made people doubt the judgment just now—

   "Osgood, are you sure that Kira is here alone at night? If there are other people, we will definitely be finished." This is a young, small voice that is almost inaudible.

"Conte, shut up. Although your voice is very low, I'm not sure if Kira heard it. I heard from others that Kira was able to come here to watch the scene because he has a pair of keen ears." This It was a thicker, but still young voice, but trembling slightly.

   "Henry, where did you hear the news? I don't know." It was the voice of a girl.

"Doria, don't listen to Henry's nonsense. And you all, shut up. After a while, Doria pretended to get lost and went out to attract Kira's sight, followed my arrangement, went around the back of the venue, pretended to steal something, In this way, Kira must think that you are conspiring to steal things here, and will definitely chase you, and then it will be my turn to go out. Remember that there is a large stone pier at the intersection, you have to go around, when Kira arrives You will definitely be tripped, so that you will have plenty of time to escape. After the incident, we will gather at the door of the broken church in the west of the city. Do you remember?"

  A very convoluted plan that seems to work.

  Hearing what he said at this moment, the heads of the other four shadows nodded at the same time. Obviously, these children are a gang of thieves.

   "Okay, let's go!"

  Kira, who was searching for **** clothes, suddenly saw a small shadow walking across from the door of the recycling bin.

  Kira turned her head and saw that it was just a little girl.

   I saw that she had messy withered yellow hair, dry skin and a thin body.

   It should be a child in the slum... Kira thought so.

  The little girl's big eyes were full of confusion and fear, she looked around, shed tears non-stop, and mumbled something indistinctly.

  No other people from the slums are allowed here, not even a lost little girl.

   The poor have their rules, and this rule cannot be changed!

  So, Kira unbuttoned his clothes, intending to walk over and scare the child severely. Usually, when a child is frightened, he will run faster than a mouse. Kira likes to see such interesting scenes very much.

  Seeing Kira approaching fiercely, and unbuttoning his jacket, revealing his muscular muscles.

  The little girl was really scared, and she let out a loud cry.

   This annoyed Kira.

  He really couldn't understand why, this seemingly small child was crying louder than his own.

  The cry that can tear the air is simply the patent of demons, although Kira doesn't know what demons are.

  Seeing that the little girl still didn't run away, Kira thought she was petrified.

  He decided to go one step further and bring the little girl back from her shock.

  Kira came up to the little girl, ripped off her belt roughly, lifted her pants, and glared fiercely at the little girl. This is a signal, as long as it is a woman, don’t you understand this signal?

  Still crying...

  Kira was angry, not only did he not see the funny scene, but he was irritated by the little girl!

  Just when Kira was about to beat the little girl with the belt, there was a sound from the recycling station, Kira quickly put away the belt, someone stole something!

   Something that belongs in his yard.

  As soon as the children saw Kira coming, they put away the things in their hands in a panic, and ran away.

  Kira immediately turned his head to look at the place where the little girl was standing just now, but the little girl was gone.

   It's a conspiracy! Damn kid, actually lied to me.

  Kira thought so confidently.

  Kira's firm thoughts when he was chasing after the three children, there is absolutely no reason for adults not to be able to outrun the children.

   Just chased out of an alley, and when turning the corner, Kira was very excited because he was about to catch these children, and he saw a large piece of falling skin.

  Damn little devils, let's see where you want to go.

   I have to admit that Kira was not chosen to be a bully because of his particularly good ears. On the contrary, his ears are not very flexible, which also makes his eyes very good.

   This refers to when his attention is focused on one point.

   So, what about the places you didn't notice? No matter how good the eyes are, it doesn't work.

   Hearing a muffled sound of "Pop!", Kira chased the child's body like a puppet caught in a string, was forced to pause, and then rolled into the air very strangely.

boom!

   There was a sound, and Kira lay down in a corner of the alley without any suspense, and passed out unconsciously.

  Kira would not have thought that it was a trap, a special trap beyond his ability to think...

  The three children, after hearing the silence outside, got out from the corner of the wall, saw Kira who was unconscious on the side, and gave each other a victory sign.

"yeah!"

   Then one by one, like ghosts in the middle of the night, they gradually disappeared into the dark alley.

  At this time, no one will come here again except poor Kira lying in a coma in a corner, he can only wake up on his own...

  …

  In the western suburbs of the city, there is a church. A long time ago, I heard that it was a holy place blessed by the archbishop himself. It is said to be a holy place, but it is actually a cleaner place in the city.

  However, twenty years ago, after being baptized by the war, the church has lost its former glory, and only the dilapidated building structure remains, faintly reminiscent of the past, standing quietly by the Tianshui River.

  And the name that was once familiar to countless people—Land of God's Mercy, I am afraid that not many people can remember it now.

In the current Temple of Mercy, there is only a low-ranking bishop in charge of it, and no one usually comes to pray. Those poor people in the nearby slums have problems eating, and they have no time to come here to pray and worship, because they Don't believe in God at all.

  If there is a real God's care, will they still live in such poverty and hardship? !

  The church gradually became a cemetery, and most of the burials were poor people in the slums.

  The night was dark and the wind was blowing. The tombstones in the courtyard in front of the Temple of Mercy were like wild grasses.

  The Sanctuary of Mercy, which is usually sparsely populated, has no one visiting in the middle of the night. Of course, except for the three children standing at the door.

  These three people are the children who escaped Kira's pursuit just now.

  At this moment, they were shivering in the cold night wind in early spring, but their eyes looked at the intersection ahead from time to time, waiting for something.

  Among the three, Henry is the tallest, with a head of aristocratic maroon hair, but with a dirty round face and a clothes full of holes, it is hard to imagine how noble he is.

He was crossing his hands, shrunk into a ball, looked at the other two partners who were already huddled together, and said with difficulty with his frozen lips, "Hey, let me say, Osgu, Conte, or I will Hold on to you, this **** weather is too cold."

   The two holding together are Osgu and Conte.

  Conte, the smallest, the most courageous, and the thinnest.

Under the withered green messy hair, there is a small face full of pockmarks. Under the long eyes, a pair of upturned nostrils are constantly secreting dark green snot, stretching and pulling, matching the cold. The wind moves back and forth rhythmically. The other one, Osgu, is about the same height as Conte, but he is obviously stronger. With his drab hair and a square face, he looks very honest. He was recently abandoned by his stepmother and came to the slums to meet Conte and Henry. Therefore, he still has some excess nutrition on his body, which is slowly being consumed at the moment. When the two heard Henry's proposal, they immediately shook their heads and said,

   "Look, Henry, it's already very difficult for the two of us to hold each other. You are so big, it's hard to hold each other."

  Of course, they were afraid that there would be too many fleas on Henry's body, so they would pass it on, and the smell on Henry's body was much worse than that of the most smelly abandoned pond in the slums.

   People don't know why there are so many fleas in these years, but after the war, everything became a little unusual.
