Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire

The sky was clear and the clouds were white

Under the scorching sun, Palu, who was working, stood up immediately when he heard the call from his ear. He smiled and looked at his wife who came to bring him water.

"Why don't you rest for a while at home?"

Seeing his wife's figure, Palu's face was filled with happiness, because his wife's abdomen had a very obvious bulge, which was the biggest motivation for him to sweat in the wheat field.

"I have enough time to rest. I am not those noble ladies."

The woman's appearance was not good-looking, and her figure had nothing to do with slenderness. Her skeleton was even tall, and she was not smaller than her husband.

"Drink some water and rest for a while."

The woman handed over the earthenware jar, and Palu took the water, pulled the woman who was perfect in his eyes, sat on the ridge of the field, and drank the sweet salt water in big gulps.

"I will be able to weed all the weeds in our one-acre field before the sun sets."

Palu promised the woman solemnly, while the woman wiped the sweat flowing from the man's body with a rough cloth towel with a distressed look on her face.

"It's okay to be late for two days. There's no need to work so hard. There's already a lot of food at home."

"How can there be a lot of food..."

Palu smiled when he heard his wife's words. Just as he was about to say something, a roar as sharp as an eagle's cry and as powerful as a lion's roar sounded, deafening, and Palu's body froze instantly.

cracking--

A large shadow fell from the sky, covering the two of them, isolating them from the scorching sun, but the cool feeling it brought was growing in people's hearts.

Palu suppressed his fear, raised his head suddenly, and saw the monster above his head casting a shadow on them.

It was a magical creature that combined all the advantages of the fierce birds in the sky and the beasts on the earth. Its wings were covered with golden brown feathers, broad and powerful. Every flap could stir up a strong airflow. Its body was huge and strong, with smooth muscle lines, strong and powerful limbs, and sharp claws at the end...

Griffin!

Palu had no doubt that as long as this huge monster was willing, he and his wife would become her food in an instant.

Fortunately, the shadow over their heads only stayed for a moment. The terrible monster ignored them and flew towards the direction of Elishim City without looking back.

But before Palu and his wife could feel happy from the relief of surviving the disaster, another shadow was cast.

Palu stared at the sky above his head with a dull look. Countless griffins came from afar, with a unified goal, heading straight for the main city.

This monster, which is often seen in bards and storybooks, is not the only one in the sky at this moment. There is another more ferocious high-level monster flying in the sky, keeping pace with the griffins.

Wyverns

"Noah is above!"

Unspeakable anxiety and fear grew in Palu's heart. He held his wife's hand tightly and prayed subconsciously, but not to any god.

In this way, Palu was not the only one. The wings of the griffins and flying dragons were spread out, covering the clouds and almost blocking the sunshine. This scene shocked the farmers outside the city of Elishim.

However, when the familiar golden dragon flag fluttered in front of the farmer, the negative emotions of fear and anxiety were almost swept away in an instant.

They were giants with white skin and bodies so tall that they seemed to be able to touch the clouds. They held the golden dragon flag in their hands and slowly moved towards the city at the end of the plain surrounded by griffins and flying dragons.

"Noah, the Most High and Holy, please bless me..."

Some people could not bear the huge pressure brought by such a scene, and knelt on the ground, praying to the majestic golden dragon on the flag in the giant's hand.

"Tsk, it's really shocking!"

In the front yard of the Dragon's Nest, Teddel looked down at the cloud giants passing through the city below, and was amazed. This scene was the first time even he had seen it.

"By the way, Noah, why don't you want Uther City? The city has been renovated well now, and it is no longer what you saw before."

"Because my last name is not Augustus."

"So you want Mount Eldis?"

"Whether it is a golden dragon or a cloud giant, they all like to live in high mountains, and the Aldis Mountains are the most suitable."

Noah said lightly that Mount Eldis is not an isolated peak, but a vast and vast mountain range, including the mountains occupied by the Dragon's Nest now, which belong to the outer part of this mountain range.

Even the current Augustus family, with its huge dukedom that exceeds the standard, only includes part of this mountain range within its territory, and as for actual control, it is almost non-existent.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that although Noah accepted the fiefdom assigned to him by the Augustus family, he did not have any title. His current position cannot be appropriately called in the existing human aristocratic system.

He has a fiefdom and an armed force established with the help of his adoptive father, and his adoptive mother promised him that he has independent taxation and legislative power in his fiefdom.

The reason for such indulgence is that the Duchess wants to see what the Golden Dragon can do in her fiefdom. It is better to demarcate the territory and do it within a limited range than to do it in the city of Elishim.

If there are good results, they can be promoted throughout the territory, otherwise, just ignore them.

"Noah, they are coming up!"

"I see, their settlements have been arranged, why are you in such a hurry?"

Noah rolled his eyes and said unhappily that the cloud giants had been traveling along the predetermined route all the way, and the place where they settled after arriving was just behind the dragon's nest, heading deeper into Mount Eldis.

"Compared to these, shouldn't you pay attention to your own wedding? Your wedding date with the duke's granddaughter is coming soon, right?"

"What's there to worry about? When the time comes, I'll just go on stage step by step."

Teddel stretched out his hand to rub his hair and said nonchalantly.

"This is the ceremony for you to officially marry your wife. This attitude is too perfunctory."

Noah noticed the abnormality of the young man, and there was a look of inquiry in his eyes.

"You don't like that girl?"

"Yes, my mother likes Edith very much, and my father also admires her and taught her a set of sword skills. How could I not like her?"

The young man shrugged his shoulders slightly, spread his hands, and showed a careless smile on his face, which looked mean and a bit of street hooliganism.

"Moreover, putting aside her family background and talent, Edith's appearance can easily rank in the top three among all the women I have seen. Being able to marry such a perfect woman is probably the luckiest thing in my life."
