"Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor."

At lunch, when he heard Kang De ask, Santos did not hide anything.

"His Majesty led the elite staff of the company to punish our unscrupulous peers who disturbed the order of the market."

Kang De took a sip of the farmer's orchard. "…Peers?"

Santos curled his lips in disdain. "Poison Nest."

In this world, not only was Kang De illiterate, but he was also an ignorant country bumpkin who did not know many common sense things. He was about to ask when Tina, who was beside him, said, "Two-legged flying dragon."

The princess explained briefly before Kang De understood.

In biology, dragons were explorers. These winged beasts had only wanted to prove one ultimate topic for thousands of years—that reproductive isolation indeed existed.

Unfortunately, they had always failed.

Moreover, they produced all kinds of hybrids.

It was said that the records of the dragon subspecies that successfully stabilized and reproduced into a race could fill a thick book. There were so many types that any human would show an old man's expression after reading them. They did not know how the dragons obtained them at all. The list included and was not limited to earth dragons, nine-headed dragons, dragon wolves, golden dragonfish, dragon whales, dragon cats, dragon rats, dragonflies, and dragon cockroaches.

There was also the energetic wyvern maid.

These hybrids had obtained a portion of the dragon's bloodline. Of course, they had also inherited a portion of the invincible strength of the dragon. Although they were gradually diluting their bloodline through continuous reproduction, causing their strength to continuously decrease, this process would ultimately stabilize. Occasionally or specially maintained, they would become the true strength of the race… In this group of wyverns, the two-legged flying dragons were only slightly worse off than the lizardmen.

The two-legged flying dragon was a mixed blood of a dragon and a griffin. It had inherited a portion of the power of a dragon and also had the sharp claws of a griffin. Although its strength and size were much inferior to a dragon, it was much stronger than a griffin. Most importantly, this sub-dragon had obtained an unimaginably high fertility rate at the price of reducing the power of the dragon bloodline.

There were many.

Moreover, the top royal bloodline had intelligence and authority. In fact, because of the relatively dense dragon bloodline, it had the awe-inspiring dignity of a dragon to the members of the tribe, forming an absolute order. It meant that its organization was quite high compared to the dragons.

He was simply a strengthened third brother without a debuff.

Of course, to the dragons, this was not a problem at all. There were countless subspecies that had been f*cked up by them, and in terms of blood ties, they were a little similar, so they did not care where these guys came from.

Of course, that was in the past.

The current Twin-legged Flying Dragon Tribe had already attracted the attention of Dragon Island.

There was only one reason.

When the Two-Legged Flying Dragon King saw that the business of the Dragon Defense Company was doing well and fishing for gold like moving mountains and filling seas, it had some thoughts. After all, they had also perfectly inherited the bright and golden nature of dragons.

—If dragons can open a defense company, so can we.

Moreover, the quantity was large, the price was excellent, and the compensation was low. He did not have to hire the country to pay the insurance and money.

Intelligent living beings pursued benefits. In this process, they often did two jobs to the extreme—controlling costs and expanding their scale.

Compared to dragons, the two-legged flying dragons were undoubtedly as weak as chickens, but the advantage was that they were cheap and not troublesome. They were easy to raise. They did not have the smelly and long rules and flaws of the Dragon Defense Company.

In a situation where defense expenditure was limited, the two-legged flying dragon was clearly more suitable.

Moreover, the king of the Two-legged Flying Dragons also had a unique vision. He accurately positioned himself and aimed at the sinking market. After all, in a private battle under the rule of the eastern countries, the two viscounts would fight for the historical ownership of a commercial hub. On the scale of a thousand people, if they called a Dragoon over for this, they could win, but it was too much of a loss. However, if they spent some money to call a few Twin-legged Flying Dragons to help, things would be very different.

This matter was in full swing and developed very quickly. Local battles under peace were the theme of the international community. In a small-scale intense conflict, the two-legged flying dragons were clearly more useful. Although the position of the dragon was unchallengeable in terms of strategic deterrence by large countries and top organizations, in a low-intensity conflict between third-tier countries and even city-states, mercenaries with low prices were the true protagonists.

The entrance of the two-legged flying dragon represented an extremely high cost-performance ratio. It was much more useful than werewolves, barbarians, and lizardmen, and it was not too expensive.

Just like that, the two-legged flying dragon first expanded its business at an extremely fast speed and took down a third- and fourth-tier market. Its heart was not enough to swallow an elephant. Greed was the nature of intelligent living beings. The business map of the two-legged flying dragon was carefully expanding into the second or even first-tier market.

After all, there was still market demand. Even in the war sequence of a first-tier country, the large number of two-legged flying dragons with high mobility and relatively cheap could find their location.

However, this was undoubtedly touching the dragon's profit.

The Dragon Defense Company lacked middle and lower-level products and was unwilling to lower the price. This was very fatal. The board members led by the Dragon Emperor woke up from a dream. Because they could not develop a substitute for the time being, the first thing they thought of was to invest.

A management acquisition.

However, the Flying Dragon King of the Poison Nest rejected.

It did not follow the rules, destroyed the market price, and disturbed the normal business order.

This was clearly a feud. It was like the hatred of killing a dragon's parents. It was comparable to the hatred of Kang De exploding the annual wealth of Dragon Island in ten minutes. The latter was heart-wrenching. The former was like a leech. The destructive power of the two was really comparable. If there was a difference…

That was, Kang De was relatively difficult to deal with. Flying dragons were relatively easy to deal with.

Kang De looked at Santos's smile and slightly awkward expression and understood.

He understood why the Dragon Emperor would bring his lackeys to kill the two-legged flying dragons at a time like this.

It was not only punishing the other party to avenge the hatred of malicious competition.

It was also to prove something to the world after the awkward defeat in the battle of Red Maple City.

—I can't f*cking defeat Kang De, but can't I kill you?

Facing the crisis of the company's operation, the Dragon Emperor did not panic in the face of danger. On Goethe's side, he first sent his capable human favorite general to tell the numbers. Peace made money. On the poisonous nest, he personally led the team to sweep the scene and anger the merchants.

This was a method with a stick in one hand and a carrot in the other.

The stick struck the flying dragon and the carrot was fed to Kang De.

Wonderful, wonderful.

When Kang De heard this, he praised and raised his glass, "Your Majesty, the Dragon Emperor, is tall and hard!"

Santos hurriedly raised his glass and stood up, clinking it with Kang De's. "Your Highness Kang De, you're also tall and hard!"

Sigh, it was really lonely without anyone to answer.

At this moment, a chuckle sounded, "How do you know that His Majesty the Dragon Emperor is hard? How is he hard?"

Santos revealed a "it's here again" expression. He was helpless against the little female dragon beside him. This young lady was good at fighting, and her personality and goals were unpredictable. He had a headache.

On such an occasion, the two of us men did not speak. Was it really good for you to say this as a lady?

Kang De's expression was calm as he said, "Of course, it's his tough style and personality. For the interests of the company and race, he's decisive in killing and doesn't give in at all. He's a tough guy!"

Santos smiled and nodded repeatedly. Kang De's response could be said to be perfect and extremely quick-witted. However, he turned to look. The One Punch Dragon Lady had an indifferent expression and was holding a pen and paper. She nodded and wrote quickly.

—So what are you writing?!

Just as this thought arose, Kang De asked, "Miss… Miss Lily, what are you writing?"

The little female dragon's expression was as usual. She did not blink and said indifferently, "Diary."

—Lie.

Although the other party was expressionless, such a thought indeed appeared in Kang De's mind.

As soon as a suspicious look appeared, Lily handed him the notebook. "Do you want to see it?"

"Al… alright."

Kang De took it. Before he could look down, he saw a faint smile appear on the little female dragon's lips. Then, he immediately returned to his senses.

—Wait, what are you looking at? I'm a father.

Eh, wait, how did she know that he was illiterate?

At this moment, Tina's voice sounded in his ear, "Dragon language…"

The fragrance in her nose intensified a little. She turned to look and saw Tina's beautiful face leaning over. Her long eyelashes trembled gently, her nose was as white as jade, she was small and cute, and her eyes were as blue as the sky.

The girl frowned and looked at him for a while before sensing Kang De's gaze. She blushed and her small ears were stained pink. She said in a low voice, "Don't look here. It's quite embarrassing…"

—In other words, it could be seen elsewhere?

This little hussy was really getting more and more powerful. A sentence made Kang De's imagination run wild. If she did it on purpose, it would really be terrifying.

The two of them looked at each other, their gazes mingling.

The gorilla coughed in dissatisfaction, but she did not stop her immediately. Instead, she looked at Tina with flickering eyes, as if recalling and figuring something.

Kang De smiled before looking down.

—Dragon language!

Kang De did not even know the common human language of the continent, let alone the dragon language.

The words were strange. They were all in the right shape and meticulous as if they contained some power. Moreover, they were very familiar. When he saw this line of dragon words, Kang De even had a special auditory hallucination, as if he could hear a brother roaring.

This was a heavenly book. Only a ghost could understand it…

—Roar.

—Distort.

—Tough.

—Hold it down.

—Stand up.

Hmm???

Kang De was shocked. His eyes jumped back and forth on the lines of dragon words. When he saw a certain word, the meaning of this word suddenly appeared in his mind. However, he did not understand dragon grammar and only knew the meaning of the word. It was still very difficult to read smoothly—but the main point was not this, right?!

What kind of cheat was this? The hidden attribute of the Knighting Ceremony? No way?

Love from the King of the Gods, the Dragon of Time and Space, Akatum, my brother?

Or had he absorbed the ability of that dragon corpse?

Kang De was more inclined to the second one. After all, the Knighting Ceremony had instantly allowed him to learn the human language, but it had not allowed him to learn to read and write. He had seen several mainstream languages in the world. Apart from Cathay which he could barely understand, the others were all gibberish… However, he had never seen the dragon language.

Not only was Akatum the Time and Space Dragon God, but it also gave him a bilingual dictionary. It was not surprising.

The possibility of absorbing the dragon corpse to obtain a dictionary was not high. It was not that he had never extracted anyone before. When Valentine fought in the chaotic battle and Red Maple City rushed to help, his eyes were red from killing. He had extracted many elves, but he did not understand the elf language.

His thoughts were like wheels and his expression was strange. The strange thing was not only that he could suddenly understand the dragon language, but also that the words he read seemed to be a little strange…

At this moment, the wind sounded. Kang De reacted extremely quickly and suddenly activated Time Acceleration. In this state, he could still see the Dragon Lady grabbing the notes in his hand at a fast speed. At the same time, the gorilla beside him quickly stood up and raised her hand.

Seeing that the Dragon Lady had no ill intentions, he remained vigilant and allowed her to snatch the notes.

In the next moment, the notebook was snatched away. The Dragon Girl's right arm was struck by the gorilla's knife. An invisible force vented and transmitted, and the entire table shook. Dishes, cups, flower baskets, food… These things all jumped up and fell. The sword light was cold. When Lily took the notebook back, Hillmelia's sword was already pointed at her throat.

The Dragon Girl did not care about the gorilla's fast and violent slash and ignored the sword close at hand. She only looked at Kang De with a rare flustered expression.

She had handed this notebook to Kang De earlier only because she wanted to prank him and see his dumbfounded expression. It was only to tease this guy. Now, she had a bad thought.

"You…" Her voice trembled. "You know the dragon language?"

—D*mn, I have an even worse feeling. What exactly is this?

However, even so, Kang De still replied frankly, "I don't understand what you're writing."

The truth.

It really could not be more true.

Even if it was relatively simple English, it might not be difficult to read some exam essays or daily words with the English and Chinese dictionaries. However, it was not easy to really read English masterpieces. You knew every word.

The little female dragon hugged the notebook and stared at Kang De. She looked at it seriously. A faint pink color even appeared on the other party's cold and beautiful face. Although it was very faint, it could still be seen.

…There was definitely something impressive written inside.

Kang De felt a little afraid of her stare. At this moment, a heavy bang sounded.

Opposite him, Santos punched the table forcefully and suddenly stood up. He looked at Lily coldly and said sternly, "What are you doing? Why did you do such a hostile action? Do you know what the outcome of your actions just now might be? All the hard work, kindness, and ideas of the Dragon Emperor and His Highness Kang De might turn into bubbles. This city might suffer again, and more of our clansmen might die! You disappoint me too much!"

This was a little awkward. Kang De advised, "It's fine, it's fine. It's all a misunderstanding…"

Santos turned around and said, "Your Highness Kang De, Dragon Island will give you an explanation for this."

Kang De waved his hand and said, "It's a small matter. He doesn't have any ill intentions."

Lily suddenly bowed and said, "I'm sorry, I was wrong."

Before Kang De could speak, she left the table. Her right hand held the notebook tightly, and her left hand covered her right arm. Her black dress fluttered, and her long hair swayed gently as she snatched the door.

Santos looked embarrassed and angry. He was really angry and uneasy.

He did not know if Lily did this because this spoiled young lady had made a fool of herself… or if she had been instructed by the Dragon Emperor.

The lunch banquet was already boring and ended in a hurry. In the afternoon, Santos had to receive the Dragon Emperor's reply through the communication method of the dragons and discuss the details of the fake match with Goethe.

After he bade farewell and left, Kang De's smile faded.

Sword Saint Snowfall said, "This female dragon probably did it on purpose. She's testing if you can dodge—if you can't dodge her snatch, you can't dodge her heart punch."

Kang De scratched his head. "I can dodge. I only saw that she doesn't have any ill intentions and that the gorilla is beside me, so I didn't expose it. If anything happens, I can leave at any time."

Hillmelia shook her head and said, "You should have dodged. Sometimes, it's more important to show your ability than hide and scheme against others… At the very least, you can intimidate the enemy and make them not dare to act rashly."

Kang De thought for a moment, "I don't think she wants to test me…"

The Sword Saint sneered, "You understand again? Do you know her very well?"

Kang De spread out his hands and said, "It's very simple, right? She values that notebook so much. Clearly, she wrote something shameful and was too embarrassed to show it to outsiders. Previously, she gave it to me because I've always acted relatively forcefully and made her a little unhappy. She wanted to tease me, but after looking at it carefully for a while, she felt that I might know the dragon language. She panicked for a moment and in a fit of anger, she snatched it away. It ended up like this…"

Hillmelia's gaze became subtle.

He sighed and said, "Poor Santos. He must be very annoyed to have such a top-notch baby to take care of. He's worried that I think the two of them are acting and putting on a show. He's worried that I think that Lily is really testing my ability and is worried that I'll doubt the sincerity of the dragons. He's even muttering now if the Dragon Emperor secretly instructed that assassin dragon to do this. In other words, he's afraid of both now…"

Before he could finish, he saw the Sword Saint roll her eyes and turn to ignore him.

The gorilla blinked her large eyes and looked at him with a little resentment.

Stella's eyes drifted as she looked out the window, thinking. She was clearly distracted and did not seem to hear what Kang De was saying.

As for Tina.

Tina sat in the chair and looked up at him. Then she grabbed one of his hands and placed it beside her cheek. She rubbed it and smiled. "It's fine. I like Kang De like this too."

Kang De exerted a little strength. The girl's face was soft and smooth, and it felt extremely good.

Tina smiled and turned her cheek slightly, rubbing it.

"However…"

She whispers.

Then, she spoke with Kang De in unison.

"Don't trust them too much."
