Driven out of my home in the apocalypse, I built a fortress in return.

Chapter 423 I want to...protect all the good things in Dragon City! (A sarcastic remark!)

Late at night, after returning to the side hall of the city lord's mansion.

Yilong suddenly said in a serious tone, "The temple has sent a message! They order us to return as soon as possible!"

Among the guests at this auction were spies from the temple who secretly passed messages to her.

"What?" Bayin's pretty face turned pale, and she said in a trembling voice, "Is it because of Dragon City? Could it be that the Temple wants to take action against Dragon City?"

"Who knows?"

Yilong shook her head and said with a wry smile, "Even Master doesn't know what those old guys are thinking, how could we possibly know? But with the temple's vast power, it's probably already aware of Dragon City."

The temple has always maintained a high and mighty style.

They will not tolerate any challenge to their authority.

Dragon City emerged out of nowhere, its development was too fast, too special, and too sudden.

The two women have witnessed how Longcheng has reached its current state in just a few months.

Dragon City is now far more powerful than even a super city like the City of Ruins.

If it continues to grow, perhaps one day it will reach a point where it can rival the temple!

"Then what do we do?" Bayin asked tentatively.

The temple has always been devoid of any human touch.

In the eyes of the temple, they were nothing more than killing tools!

From a young age, they were forced to kill people every day. If they didn't want to kill, they could only be killed.

In comparison, Dragon City is really much better.

This place not only has delicious food and drinks, but it's also very relaxing.

To be honest, she really didn't want to leave.

"Heh! What else do you want if I don't go back?" Yilong glanced sideways at her companion and sneered, "Do you want to betray the temple? Do you dare? I certainly don't!"

"Hmph!" Bayin snorted coldly, "Fine, let's go back then!"

There are many other killing machines like them in the temple.

Moreover, there are many who are far stronger than them.

They had previously received orders from the temple to return after completing their tasks.

However, they made excuses to delay for so long.

But this is the first time the temple has issued an order.

If I don't go back, I'll be labeled a traitor.

At that time, they will be hunted down by other temple envoys and major forces on the continent.

You should know that when they were temple messengers...

When facing the seventh or eighth-tier leaders of powerful forces, they are extremely assertive, even domineering.

Those powerful figures and influential individuals feared the temple and could only submit to its commands.

However, it's obvious that those people actually harbor deep resentment towards them.

If those powerful figures were to find out that they were wanted by the temple...

The consequences are not hard to imagine: countless people will accept the mission and hunt them down to the ends of the earth.

Therefore, if you want to survive, you have no choice but to obey orders.

"If Dragon City becomes stronger... if we side with Xiao Yu... will he be willing to support us?" Bayin looked towards the City Lord's Mansion, a hint of expectation in her heart.

She felt that this man was someone who could create miracles.

"Heh! Don't even dream about it!" Yilong sneered.

Let alone their relationship with Xiao Yu, it's not to the point where he would offend the temple for their sake.

Even if Xiao Yu were willing to protect them, Dragon City's strength still wouldn't be enough to contend with the Temple.

Does a power that has existed for thousands of years really think it has no trump cards at all?

The following day, early morning, somewhere in Longcheng.

"Is this... the paradise I've been longing for?"

Looking at everything in Dragon City, Feng Chi was filled with emotion.

The environment here is beautiful, the air is fresh, and there are glow-in-the-dark areas at night.

Once anyone comes here, they'll probably want to stay and never want to leave!

Feng Chi is not yet twenty years old, a wind-element awakener, and half a step into the seventh rank.

For a rogue cultivator to have such strength is actually quite impressive.

Now, his talent has been directly upgraded to SS level, and his future is limitless.

Xiao Yu was naturally very happy that he was willing to join Dragon City.

So, after the auction ended yesterday, when Feng Chi went to the private room to find Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu handed him over to Heima and asked Heima to take him around to various departments in Longcheng to familiarize him with the environment and then go to a department he liked.

Xiao Yu treats his subordinates this way; he doesn't force them to do anything.

I can give you some advice. If you like it, do it; if you don't, you can return it.

"What kind of job should I do?" Feng Chi pondered as he strolled around.

In addition to protecting Dragon City, the city's defense forces also have to wage war against foreign enemies and hunt ferocious beasts.

He didn't like fighting.

Looking at the patrol superintendent, his job is to patrol various places every day.

If any safety hazards are discovered, take immediate remedial action.

When people are fighting, stop them and try to break it up.

If spies or thieves are discovered, arrest them immediately.

In short, it's about protecting all the good things in Dragon City.

"I understand, now I know what job to do!"

That morning, Xiao Yu announced a reward for the three armies.

The young women in cheongsams who were responsible for receiving guests on the day of the auction, the city defense soldiers and police officers responsible for maintaining order, and the chefs and waiters from the gourmet restaurant who prepared a large amount of food...

In short, all staff members who participated in this auction were rewarded.

Everyone will receive double their salary this month, 5 drops of Night Dew, and a hot spring experience voucher.

Those who made achievements or contributions during this auction will be calculated separately.

In the morning, a young man was brought into the city lord's mansion.

"Have you decided what kind of job you want?" Xiao Yu asked Feng Chi gently.

"Lord of the City!" Feng Chi bowed respectfully and said sincerely, "I love this city very much, and I want to dedicate my life to protecting it."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu nodded and said, "Then you can go to the police station; it would suit you well."

Feng Chi's talents are speed and wind element, and his combat strength is actually quite strong.

However, speed is also very useful for the police superintendents of Dragon City.

For example, the wind system is very useful when someone encounters danger or a fire breaks out.

“Yes, Lord City Lord! That’s what I think too.” Feng Chi nodded earnestly.

Perhaps there are many opportunities to make meritorious contributions and get promoted in the city defense army.

But he wasn't really interested in those things; he preferred protecting others!

Everything in Dragon City is wonderful, and it's worth his life to protect it!

"very good."

Xiao Yu chuckled and nodded, then said solemnly, "I appoint you as the deputy director of the patrol police department, to work with Black Horse to protect our common home. In addition, I will arrange a phoenix-tailed chicken for you as a bird, which will also be your fighting partner."

I've been earning millions every day lately, and yesterday I earned over 60 million.

So, he evolved all the Phoenix Tail Chickens yesterday, and all 11 of them are now at level seven.

His idea was to treat all pets equally.

"Thank you, Lord City Lord!" Feng Chi was overjoyed upon hearing this.

He is a wind elementalist, so naturally he can fly, and his flight speed far exceeds that of other elements of the same level.

But what man wouldn't want a flying mount?

It can be used for transportation in normal times, and it is also a very powerful fighting partner when encountering enemies.
