CHAPTER 45: CHAPTER 45: NEW RETAINERS

Would it take an ordinary appraiser half a day to calculate the price of these goods?

But the Giant Dragon, since he came into contact, just glanced at it...

It’s astonishing!

If I had this ability too, how wonderful it would be!

This praise made Land feel comfortable inside, and a hint of pride appeared on his face.

But immediately, the fat man said:

"Your Highness the Giant Dragon, what you said is completely correct, but I can tell you! These goods, I originally planned to sell to others for 500 Gold Taler?"

"500 Gold Taler??"

A flash of brilliance appeared in Land’s eyes, and he almost drooled.

"That’s right! To be honest, Your Highness the Giant Dragon, this batch of goods is actually urgently needed by Viscount Ireland of the Laine Kingdom!

As long as you are willing, I can continue to escort this batch of goods over, and then you can get 500 Gold Taler."

Aganfu said softly, and the words were especially tempting to Land.

Land pondered for a moment, his gaze flickering, before speaking after a long pause:

"Not bad! Not bad! Your words have moved my heart, so I will give you the qualification to live and become my servant!"

Land was happy, then turned his gaze to the other guards who were still playing dead, wanting to stomp a few for fun.

"No! We don’t want to die either! Your Highness the Giant Dragon, spare us! Master Aganfu, save us!!" A few of them realized something was wrong, immediately stopped playing dead, and cried out.

"Your Highness the Giant Dragon! Please also spare them! Although their strength is weak, they can still be somewhat useful if left alive, following me in business or helping you out!

Have you heard a saying among us merchants? Even the most useless trash will have its value!

Even if it’s a small Kobold, a Goblin!

As long as you find the right way, you can extract the value they deserve."

Aganfu quickly spoke up to help his subordinates out of their predicament.

It’s not that he was particularly kind-hearted, protecting his subordinates, it’s just that he thought if he followed this Giant Dragon in the future, he’d better have a few companions, right?

It’s said that every Giant Dragon will have its evil minions.

If he were alone, he might end up not dying in the Dragon Claw, but in the hands of the dragon’s minions, which would be highly embarrassing!

"Exactly! Spare us, Your Highness the Giant Dragon! As long as you let us live, we are willing to do anything for you!" A few human guards knelt on the ground, showing their loyalty.

Land actually looked down on these human guards. In his eyes, their value might not be much higher than being dead.

Speaking of which, he didn’t know when his [Killing Enemies]Ⅱ would be unlocked.

But whatever, Land glanced at Aganfu and decided to let them accompany him.

He was about to agree when he suddenly sensed a commotion in the distance and immediately turned his head to look.

A large group of Half-Beastmen and Elves were rushing over in the distance.

Several of the Half-Beastmen’s weapons were stained with blood and flesh, evidently having killed some unfortunate souls who had just fled!

Without further ado, Land shook his Dragon Wings and flew up, arriving in front of these Half-Beastmen and Elves, and growled lowly.

"Go guard the goods for me and put out the fire!

As for those humans beside the goods, don’t kill them, keep them for me.

They still have some use, understand?"

The elves and Half-Beastmen immediately acknowledged loudly.

Only then did Land flap his wings again and fly into the high sky.

At a height of a kilometer, like an eagle_eye, he used the Dragon’s Eye to scan the ground within a dozen kilometers. Whenever he found fugitives, he would immediately land and launch a Dragon Meteor!

With terrifying tremors and roars, batch after batch of people had their bones shattered by the shockwave, their internal organs ruptured, and died tragically!

But still, this couldn’t satisfy Land!

Because the dwarf who wanted to burn his treasure earlier couldn’t be found!

This little bug had "toyed" with him slightly before, leaving a deep impression on Land, who had an urge to stomp him to death!

To see this particular bug howling in despair before him.

After flying more than a dozen kilometers and making a round without finding him, Land finally returned somewhat frustrated.

Afterward, he escorted the goods, Aganfu of the Havier Commerce, and a few guards back to the forest together.

Though he was inclined to have Aganfu transport the goods earlier in exchange for 500 Gold Taler.

But the guy had two broken leg bones, needing a bit of recovery.

Of course, his subordinates included several Nature Elves, who, although not strong in battle.

Could use some Healing Skill. Surely, it wouldn’t take long for these people to set off again, bringing him the long-anticipated Gold Taler.

However now, the most pressing thing Land needed was sleep!

Just lying on the ground for about a quarter of an hour, he dozed off, but when he woke up the next day, Land’s dragon face was full of dissatisfaction!

Frost covered his face, making a group of servants terrified.

Why, you ask?

Because the treasure from this looting didn’t unlock the [Wealth]Ⅱ achievement, nor did he acquire the desired Potential Points.

The killed enemies also provided nothing, was it all in vain?

Land was a bit frustrated, but he comforted himself.

Next time unlocking [Wealth]Ⅱ, and [Killing Enemies]Ⅱ should not be far off.

"Elf! Elf! Come over quickly! Continue the music and dance!"

To alleviate this frustration, Land shouted aloud.

A group of elves hurriedly ran over, some started playing music, while others danced.

As the exciting music played, those elves wearing specially made miniskirts, exposing their gleaming white legs, began to sway.

Charming looks, bewitching moves in quick succession.

This stunned Gandalf and a few human guards still recovering nearby; they stared with eyes wide open and mouths agape, thinking how beautiful! How tempting!

And those legs, so white! They longed to glimpse the scenes under the short skirts!

Oh! Plus, those hips upfront were so fierce...

What did those charming looks mean? Did this group of elves fancy us?

Aganfu and several accomplices, as they watched, their breathing involuntarily got heavy.

Land, detecting the anomaly, turned and glanced.

Good heavens!

These guys, their eyes were red, and their shorts bulging in excitement!

"Does it look good?" Land suddenly asked in a low voice.

"It... it looks... good..." They replied instinctively, but the next moment, as if realizing something, their entire bodies shivered, fearfully looking at Land not far away.

"Your Highness the Giant Dragon... we... we... didn’t mean that..." Aganfu stammered, not knowing what to say.
