"Bang, boom!"
Amidst the roaring fireworks and gunfire, the town of Shining Gold ushered in a new day with noise.
The gorgeous fireworks constantly rising into the sky at the gate of the town echoed the golden morning light, injecting infinite vitality into the town with dazzling brilliance. In the early morning, the town was already buzzing with people. The streets and shops were crowded with people. This day was the carnival day that only happens once every three years in Shining Gold Town, the selection ceremony of Dragon City Guards.
As the most powerful city in Bredonia, Dragon City Guardian is basically equivalent to the strongest force in Bredonia. As for Dragon City Guards, apart from internal recommendation, this is basically the only way to recruit externally.
However, it is not known why such an important ceremony was chosen in Gold Glitter Town instead of Dragon City itself. Perhaps it is because Gold Glitter Town has a large number of talents, and it is the cradle of blood that Bretonia has been famous since ancient times, or it may be because Glitter Gold Town The geographical location is superior, extending in all directions. But all in all, for Shining Gold Town, this is a rare opportunity, so naturally we must firmly grasp it.
From early in the morning, the town went into a carnival, and when the sun got higher, the atmosphere cooled down slightly—because the big shots from Dragon City were about to arrive.
Near noon, from the far horizon, a huge black shadow rolled over the area like a dark cloud. The black shadow quickly expanded in people's field of vision. Not long after, someone in the town exclaimed: "It's a dragon!"
It is the symbol of Dragon City, the giant dragon at the apex of creatures!
The faint Longwei has been suppressed several miles away, making the townspeople feel a little short of breath. But when the giant dragon flew close, Long Wei restrained himself a lot.
Because beside the giant dragon, several platinum rays of light slowly bloomed, covering the figure of the giant dragon, and the strong holy aura made people involuntarily have the urge to worship.
"Hey, it really is the Holy Light Cult."
In the inn, Wang Lu laughed coldly: "I probably understand what's going on about the selection ceremony of the Dragon City guards."
Aya's face was also a little gloomy, and her green eyes stared straight at the giant dragon figure in the distance sandwiched between several holy lights, she shook her head lightly: "Dragon City... shouldn't be like this."
A moment later, the giant dragon arrived at Gold Shining Town. After circling around the central square of the town, it began to land slowly. When it landed, the giant dragon's figure shrank rapidly and gradually turned into a human shape.
It was a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties, with a majestic face. He was tall and mighty, and he couldn't help but feel surrendered. When he landed, a circle of townspeople closest to the central square even knelt down involuntarily. .
"Tsk, what a majestic aura."
In the distance, Wang Lu looked at the square from the roof of the inn, feeling the faint coercion exuded by the middle-aged man, and preliminarily judged that the other party's level was between high-level and legendary, that is, the level of Huashen. Such a strong man can crush the town of Shining Gold to the ground with a single thought, but now he just makes a group of people bow down, which should be the result of extreme restraint.
"Aya, do you know him?"
Aya's voice was a little low: "He is the Lord of Dragon City, Bedivere." After a pause, "It was a hundred years ago. But at that time, it was impossible for him to tolerate such an offense."
Wang Lu gave an oh to express his understanding. Because right next to the city lord of Dragon City, three white-robed priests of Shengguang formed a circle. It would be far-fetched to say that this position is serving and serving, but it has a stronger meaning of monitoring and controlling. But in fact, the three priests of Shengguang are just beginning to enter the advanced level, even if the three of them work together, they can't compete with the powerhouse of the Dragon City City Lord. Obviously, Bedivere, the lord of Dragon City, was willing to degenerate. If it was Aya, even if she was only at the Golden Core level, she would dare to fight against the three Huashen—of course, that's why she died.
Because of Bedivere's existence, Aya was unable to show up, so she waited quietly at the inn. Wang Lu was curious about the dragon city guard selection ceremony, so he led Liulixian and others to squeeze towards the square.
When we arrived at the square, the selection ceremony had already begun. Bedivere didn't like to waste time. After making a simple opening statement, he reached out and pulled out a high platform in the field, and put a crystal ball on the platform.
"Next, those who are confident in themselves will come to the stage and drip their own blood onto the crystal ball. If the results of the appraisal pass, they can join the Dragon City Guard."
After a brief explanation last night, Bedivere turned around and stepped off the stage, while the two white-robed priests stayed on the stage to preside over the appraisal, and another priest was always by Bedivere's side.
This is not the first time that the selection ceremony of Dragon City Guards has been held. Most people in Shining Gold Town are familiar with these procedures. Soon, a young boy confidently stepped onto the stage, bit his finger, and dripped blood on the crystal ball.
The crystal ball flickered for a while, and finally settled on green. The young man froze for a moment, then looked at the two priests expectantly.
"Go down." A pastor said coldly.
The young man's face turned pale: "But, but I have blood."
"The bloodline of the green excellent level is not qualified to become a Dragon City guard at all. Go find a living elsewhere and go down."
As he spoke, the pastor stretched out his hand and pushed forward, and the young man staggered and fell off the high platform.
The people below talked a lot: "Oh, the bloodlines of the excellent level are not eligible to join. The threshold for guarding the Dragon City is so high. I am afraid that the holy knights of the Holy Light Cult are no more than that."
"Yeah, in other places, not to mention green, even white bloodlines are enough for ordinary city lords to focus on cultivating. And even the worst gray bloodlines at least mean they can become professionals. How can it be like this, To be thrown out like trash."
"That's right. In some cities, the captains of the guards of the city lords are nothing more than excellent-level bloodlines. It's really not easy for Dragon City guards."
While speaking, another strong man jumped onto the stage to accept the appraisal. The strong man exuded an extremely dangerous aura and was quite powerful, and the crystal ball also showed a dark blue color.
"Well, the bloodline that is close to the rare level is not bad. It is a defensive bloodline that is biased towards the shield battle route, so it is even rarer." The white-robed priest nodded, "It's a pity that there is no shortage of shield guards in Dragon City, you go down. "
The strong man was inexplicably surprised: "Get down, get down!? I'm..."
Before he finished speaking, the white-robed priest stretched out his hand and pushed, and the strong man fell down without any resistance.
After all, although he has excellent potential, and has been honed and powerful, he is still vulnerable to high-level professionals. However, after the strong man was knocked off the high platform, he was soon surrounded by several luxuriously dressed nobles, trying to win over the forces that entered his family.
The selection of Dragon City guards is very strict, being eliminated may not be due to lack of strength, maybe it is just that Dragon City does not need it. But for others, those eliminated are still an invaluable and cherished resource.
"Generally speaking, only blue-purple blood, which is close to the epic level, will join the Dragon City Guards with a high probability, but how can blue-purple blood be so common? I have lived in Jinshi Town for decades, and I have witnessed every selection ceremony. Now the blue-purple bloodline has only appeared less than ten times. Every time it appears, the people of Dragon City are greatly shocked."
A gray-haired townsman of Glittering Gold said with emotion.
"Excuse me, has there been any Breton dragon blood in these years?"
A young voice sounded beside the old man's ear, the old man turned his head, but saw a strange face.
"Hi, I'm a traveler from Kyushu, and I really want to know more about the customs and customs of this place." The young man smiled slightly, and there was a special power in his smile, which made the old man relax his vigilance unconsciously.
"Is it the blood of the Breton dragon?" The old man stroked his beard, and said in a proud tone: "Of course it has happened many times, after all, this is Bretonia. No matter how much the blood of the Breton dragon is Thin, the lowest is also green, usually blue or even purple. And its true value is much higher than other bloodlines of the same level. I have gone through fifteen selection ceremonies. They will be given the highest standard of treatment and treat them individually. Hehe, that is the pride of us Bretonians!"
"Receive alone? Understood, thank you."
—
As one challenger after another came on stage and stepped off the stage, time flew by quickly, as if it didn't take long, half a day passed, the sun had gradually set, and a long dark shadow was drawn from the raised platform on the square .
In half a day, many excellent bloodlines were indeed selected, and there were more than 20 people who reached the Dragon City standard. Among them, there are three local people in Gold Flash Town, and one of them is of Bretonia dragon blood, which is quite a good result. After all, most of the people who heard about the reputation of the selection ceremony came from Bretonia, or even people from outside Bretonia.
As the sun went down, the people in Shining Gold Town gradually dispersed. Those who failed the challenge mostly left with their entourage, and those who came to watch the excitement felt that the ceremony was about to end and there was nothing to watch.
Bedivere, the lord of Dragon City, waited quietly on the high platform for a while. It had been a while since the last challenger left, and no newcomers came up to the stage. He turned his head and said, "It's almost over, isn't it?"
"End? Just these people, how to end?"
Bedivere frowned his thick eyebrows: "There are twenty-three people, isn't that enough?"
The white-robed priest took a deep look at him: "You know what I'm talking about."
"... There is already one person, isn't that enough?"
"Do you think we don't know about your little actions in private?" The pastor said, his eyes turned to the high platform, "There are many people who should come up here that have not come up."
Bedivere snorted coldly: "The recruitment of Dragon City Guards is not about arresting strong men by force. Can you still force those who don't want to come up?"
The pastor said: "Of course you can't force it, but you can lure it." As he spoke, he spread his palms with a stern smile, and suddenly a strong fragrance wafted out.
Bedivere's body trembled: "This is, Ambergris!?"
"Hmph, yes, it is the irresistible temptation of the Breton Dragon Clan. I knew you would not do things honestly, so I brought it here on purpose. I want to see how many dragon bloodlines have not shown up these days. "
"you!?"
"Want to do it? Please, with your strength, killing the three of us is really easy."
Bedivere gritted his teeth, but did not act in the end. And the priest ignited the ambergris with holy light, and the subtle fragrance quickly spread to every corner of the Gold Glittering Town.
After a while, the priest on the high platform was satisfied to see several townspeople walking towards here in a distraught manner in the distance, thinking to himself that this priceless treasure was indeed not in vain.
Although it is unavoidable to be suspected of killing the chicken and taking the eggs, but this time I have gained so much, no matter what.

At the same time, Wang Lu, who had lost interest in the selection ceremony and returned to the inn to prepare a meal, was surprised to see the little girl in the kitchen suddenly lost her mind. She seemed to have been hit by something, her body trembled slightly, and the plate in her hand fell to the ground without realizing it, and she walked lightly outside, as if being possessed by a ghost.
Wang Lu just felt strange: "Nice, where are you going?"
As soon as the words finished, Aya who was beside Wang Lu suddenly stood up.
"Bang, boom!"
Amidst the roaring fireworks and gunfire, the town of Shining Gold ushered in a new day with noise.
The gorgeous fireworks constantly rising into the sky at the gate of the town echoed the golden morning light, injecting infinite vitality into the town with dazzling brilliance.
