Chapter 52 Tiefling (VI)
Suddenly, children's screams came from the camp gate.
The tieflings quickly turned to look.
"Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo..."
I saw several strong and powerful ogres shouting slogans and carrying thick logs into the camp as if no one else was around. The tiefling guards at the door did not dare to stop them.
"All in line—"
More than thirty half-dragon hobgoblin troops appeared at the door of the "Broken House", marching in neat formation, preparing to enter the camp.
Hundreds of dragon-veined kobolds followed closely behind. They are natural diggers and builders and will become the main force in building this town.
"Roar--"
The atavistic flying dragon roars wantonly in the sky, and any snowman who dares to attack will be burned to ashes by its flames.
"Oh my god, the ogres will become our allies."
"These kobolds won't steal our things..."
"Is that a flying dragon?"
"We're going to be working with these monsters from now on."
The tiefling refugees had different attitudes towards the strange "reinforcements" that came to support them. They were either happy, fearful, uneasy, or surprised.
But one thing is for sure
——They can't stop these monsters from entering.
Facing such a huge formation, Metrorash, who had always been calm, couldn't help but be stunned. He couldn't help but say:
"Sir, this is by no means a temporary idea."
"This...is also part of your plan, right?"
Cassius looked down at the family members who were coming one after another, and blew out a breath of sulfur-smelling hot air:
"I've said long ago that you don't have the capital to negotiate."
Metrolash smiled bitterly and shook his head:
"Sir, you really don't look like a pure red dragon. If it weren't for your powerful power, I would have doubted... you are a green dragon who likes to manipulate the situation."
Cassius just said calmly: "So you can stand here alive instead of being reduced to ashes by me when I said these words."
"Thank you for your extraordinary forgiveness."
Metrolash also realized that he had violated the rules and ignored his status, so he quickly nodded and apologized.
Cassius didn't pay attention and just said: "Take me to your cave to see. I am very interested in some things inside."
"Yes, sir."
Metrolash did not speak again this time, but silently led the way.
Arriving in the cave deep in the camp, Cassius finally saw what he wanted to see.
——The ancient teleportation circle.
Purple runes appeared on the rock wall. There was no discernible pattern in those lines, but they made people feel a sense of order coming from the depths of their souls.
This is commonly known as the "resurrection point" by players in previous lives. Countless mages have studied them, but they still cannot know how these formations without mana fluctuations produced these "fallen stars".
The ancient teleportation circle in "The Ruined House" is the player's initial birth point.
Metrolash said: "Sir, please forgive us for being stupid. Even the most knowledgeable people in the camp cannot see the purpose of these ancient runes."
Cassius said: "You will find out in the future.
"Protect this place and never let anyone discover or destroy it."
Metrolash solemnly said: "I will obey your order."
Cassius seemed to think of something again, and then said: "Is that contract still in your hand?"
The so-called contract refers to the contract signed between Duke Luckman and the being in the darkness to transform into a vampire at the cost of one thousand lives.
While investigating a disappearance case, Metrolash once chased it all the way to the Duke's Mansion and desperately obtained it, which also brought about the murder of his entire family.
When Metrolash heard this question, he nodded solemnly and recalled those tragedies.
This is not just a contract, but evidence of guilt.
A piece of evidence soaked in blood.
There was no room for rejection in Cassius's tone: "In three days, come to me at the Ember Nest with the contract."
Then, the tiefling paladin turned around and resigned to coordinate the tieflings in building the town.
Cassius narrowed his eyes slightly and checked Metrolash's information.
The paladin's own "holy perception" felt the prying eyes of the red dragon, but he just treated it as normal and did not react in any way.

Evaluation: When the bloody curtain fell, the paladin broke all the vows he had made and carried out the final resistance.
"All the followers in the Burning Ember Nest, except for Rumple, are probably not as good as him."
This is Cassius's assessment.
In his opinion, the stalemate between Metrorash and the Evil Yeti was purely because he had become an Oathbreaker not long ago and was not familiar with various abilities.
If he could master various spells and abilities, it would be no problem to kill the evil snowman alone.
The paladin was also a popular profession in his previous life. He was capable of both close combat and spells, and was nicknamed the "Saint Father" by people.
Although the strength of [Oathbreaker] is not as high as that of popular professions such as [Oath of Vengeance] and [Oath of Conquest], it is still not weak.
"We still need players..."
Cassius has some expectations. If these guys called the "Fourth Natural Disaster" can be used well, they will definitely be an extremely terrifying force.
The first batch of closed beta players will appear in the ancient teleportation circle of "The Ruined House", and many of them will become powerful beings in the future.
Cassius flew into the sky, overlooking the now crude "Rundown House".
The ogres inserted logs into the ground as pillars and built the framework of the building. The kobolds drilled in and out, knocking and knocking. On the contrary, some tieflings stood aside helplessly, not knowing how to go up to help.
Farther away, the goblins have begun to lay roads to connect this place with the Human Giant Valley, but progress is slow due to snow.
The future city of Bator will be built here, and buildings will rise from the ground. This will become the gathering place for the Starfallen, and the player's first "main city."
Thanks to Mr. NoelBD for the reward. The author of Poujie is very grateful. Also, I want to change the name to "Lord of the Red Dragon". Pure metaphysics believes that four-character dragon names are very popular. I don't know what your opinions are. If you have new suggestions, you can reply here.
