Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire

"ah--"

The sun has not yet risen, and the eastern sky is only a fish-belly white, but the girl sleeping under the statue of the holy dragon has already opened her eyes, packed her bags simply and quickly, and just wanted to praise herself for living another day, but she soon discovered Noticing something was wrong with his body, he couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.

"What's wrong?"

The girl's exclamation soon attracted the guards patrolling nearby.

In fact, they had already noticed this girl who often slept under the icon recently, but after learning a little about her condition, many guards responsible for patrolling this area chose to turn a blind eye to her. .

After all, this girl is very sensible and leaves the square before dawn every day. It will not cause any negative impact, nor will it hinder anyone.

"I'm fine. I'm very sorry. I just feel that my body feels a lot lighter."

Seeing the guards who came after hearing the news, Connie bowed apologetically. This is her character. She hates people who cause trouble to others.

Of course, the most important thing is that because of her health, she does not want to make herself a burden to others, let alone others to treat her as a burden. She appreciates the mercy shown to her by others, but she does not want to be someone who lives solely on the kindness of others.

"Your face looks much better."

A guard who often paid attention to Connie couldn't help but said that compared to the girl's usually pale and sickly face, the girl's cheeks at this moment had a radiant blood color that she had never seen before.

"I feel like I'm in good shape, too."

A completely unfamiliar sense of fullness filled her body, a feeling she had never experienced before, making the girl couldn't help but jump twice. That was something she would never dare to do before, but now she feels very relaxed.

"You'd better go to Heluo Medicine Hall and take a look!"

Seeing the girl in front of him who was in a significantly different state than usual, the guard couldn't help but remind her that it was not a good thing for a normally sick person to suddenly improve.

"Yes, that's right. If there is a problem, treat it in time. If you are short of money, we can lend it to you."

"Thank you, but no, I should be fine."

Connie bowed again. She knew that her problem was an incurable disease for ordinary people. Even for those noble professionals, her problem was very difficult.

"Go and see!"

"OK."

Under the urging and advice of the guards, Connie took her small luggage and slowly left the square. But as she began to move, the girl felt that her body became lighter and lighter, and her limbs were filled with a very unfamiliar sense of power. , which made her pace faster and faster, and in the end, she couldn't help but break into a trot.

For Connie, this was a feeling she had never felt before. It made her feel like a bird soaring high in the sky, so free and carefree, which gave her a joy from the bottom of her heart.

"It's great. In the last moments of my life, it's great to be able to run like an ordinary person!"

The girl's judgment on the changes in her physical condition was the same as the guard's worries. She guessed that she was probably approaching the end of her life, so her body burst out its final potential to let her feel what it was like to be a healthy growing girl.

However, after running through half the city extremely happily, the girl felt her heart beating rapidly in her chest. Her face was flushed and she was panting violently. However, she was very surprised to find that she was still alive, but she had the strength that she often felt in daily life. Apart from the feeling of exhaustion, there was no discomfort, and her life was not over.

So, Connie finally went to the Holo Medicine Hall where she often went. Although she didn't want to waste resources, she wanted to know what kind of changes had happened to her body.

"Connie, where have you been these days?"

When the girl entered a courtyard that was decorated in a very simple and natural way and exuded the aroma of herbs, one of the female pharmacists immediately recognized the girl, walked up quickly, and hugged the sweaty girl in my arms,

"I've been worried about you these days."

"Aunt Wendy, I..."

Feeling the anxiety of the pharmacist in front of her, the girl choked up for a moment.

It was precisely because she met such a kind person that she didn't want to trouble him. The herbs she had worked so hard to refine would be a waste when used on her.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you sweating so much?"

The pharmacist quickly noticed something strange about Connie, especially her strong heart, which made her a little wary.

"I just went for a run!"

The girl was a little worried, but also a little happy. Her cheerful tone shocked even the pharmacist.

"How can you run?"

"I don't know, but when I woke up today, I found that I became stronger, and then I couldn't help but start running."

The girl's eyes also showed confusion.

"Come here, let me check your body."

"good."

After some examination, the pharmacist also had a look of confusion in his eyes, because lying in front of him was a perfectly normal girl. Apart from some malnutrition, there was no problem, especially her heart, which was exceptionally strong. powerful.

"how so?"

"What's wrong with me?"

Connie asked nervously, if she could live, who would be willing to face death? She was still so young now.

"You're okay, you're fine, very fine."

Wendy comforted the girl, and then quickly called other pharmacists to further verify the girl's physical condition. After confirming that the girl had really recovered her health, and that her heart was much stronger than ordinary people, she went straight to the professional and asked here we go,

"Wendy, where have you been these days? What have you experienced?"

"I'm not going anywhere, I just want to find a job."

"Then did you find it?"

"No."

Connie shook her head in frustration.

"So have you been to any special place these days?"

"Special? Not really!"

The girl also knew at this moment that her current situation was abnormal. Not only did she not have any problems now, but she was inexplicably cured.

"Think about it carefully."

"I have no place to sleep these days, so I sleep under the sacred dragon statue."

Connie had a sheepish look on her face, her behavior was somehow offensive.

But after thinking about it, she realized that if there was anything special about her experiences these days, it had to do with the Holy Dragon.

"Holy dragon?"

Several pharmacists looked at each other, and then their expressions became serious.

"What's wrong?"

The suddenly serious atmosphere made Connie look a little nervous.

"Did you pray to the Holy Dragon?"

"I pray to the Holy Dragon every day."

The girl said honestly that this was something that many civilians in the Holy Dragon territory would do.

"Then did you dream about anything at night? For example, the holy dragon claimed to bless you?"

"No, I didn't dream about anything."

Connie looked even more confused.

As a result, a temple priest soon arrived because the pharmacists at Holo Medicine Hall suspected that an ignorant girl had been deceived by the evil god.

However, no matter how much the temple priests performed magical examinations, no abnormalities were found on the girl. No matter from every aspect, she was a slightly malnourished girl. The only abnormality was an overly active heart.

"How is this possible?"

The error-free version is being read! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.

The temple priest in charge of the investigation was also incredulous when he saw the records of the girl's condition that the pharmacists had brought over.

Repairing a congenitally defective heart is something that only a regional archbishop-level priest can do. In other words, there are only a few priests in the entire city who can perform this level of magic, but none of them have it. Free time to save a mortal girl.

"Will this be a blessing from the Holy Dragon?"

Some pharmacists mentioned that because according to inquiries, the girl was abnormal during this period, and she only slept under the sacred dragon statue for more than ten days in a row.

"Are you kidding me? Mortals don't know. Don't you still know?"

Upon hearing such ridiculous speculation, the temple priest suddenly showed quite intense emotions.

"Only a true god as great as our Lord can bestow blessings on the mortal world. Although Holy Dragon Noah is a very wise lord, he is not a god!"

Faced with such a decisive rejection from the True God Priest, even the many pharmacists who highly respected the Holy Dragon had no confidence to argue.

Ignorant mortals will worship the Holy Dragon as a god, but pharmacists who have set foot in the supernatural realm know that the Holy Dragon is just an extraordinarily powerful dragon, and he is indeed not a god.

"This must be the favor of the Holy Dragon!"

Even though she heard the objection of a true god priest with her own ears, the girl who could feel the abundant vitality in her body at this moment believed that there was a certain truth.

Although she had no evidence, her intuition told her that it was the Holy Dragon who saved her, and only a great and benevolent being like the Holy Dragon would set his sights on a poor and insignificant girl like her.

"May I have your name?"

The gentle voice reached her ears, and Connie looked at the priest in front of her who was wearing a plain white priest's robe. It was her first time to come into contact with such a big shot, but at this moment, she felt no nervousness, nor any expectation or yearning.

"Her name is Connie!"

The pharmacist on the side looked at the girl who seemed a little stunned and answered for her.

"Connie, isn't it? It's a very nice name. Although I don't know the reason, I guess that a certain benevolent majesty has given you a blessing. Perhaps he is the master of life and the guardian of nature that I believe in. A favor bestowed by His Majesty Vitalis.”

The priest extended his palm to the girl who looked a little confused.

"You are a girl with very good qualifications. Are you willing to become my student and serve His Majesty Vitalis with me?"

"But since I was a child, I have only prayed to His Majesty the Holy Dragon Noah!"

The girl's eyes were still blank, but what she said made the priest's face darken. This was the name he hated to hear the most during his preaching, Holy Dragon Noah!

Although from a fair and objective perspective, no matter who it is, they have to admit that this is a very wise dragon lord. But as a shepherd of the true God, it was difficult for him to stand in a neutral position.

Because of his repeated setbacks in this land, those ignorant mortals were not willing to believe in a true god with boundless power. Instead, they were willing to chant day and night to a dragon that would not respond to their prayers.

"Holy Dragon Noah is not a true god, and your faith in him is of no use!"

The priest's voice was a little higher.

"But I think my heart is the gift of the Holy Dragon."

Even when facing a big man she had never met before, the girl was not timid at all, and did not give in, and was still very stubborn.

"Foolish, ignorant, stupid, hopeless!"

The pastor was completely broken, no longer caring about his dignity, and cursed loudly.

He was recruiting her personally, and even publicly announced that he would accept her as a student. This ignorant fool, didn't he know how much this would change her fate?

"Mr. Byrne!"

Seeing the pastor who was furious and threw his robe away, pharmacist Wendy reached out to keep him, but it was obvious that the pastor, who had suffered a major mental blow, didn't want to pay attention to anyone now, especially those related to the Holy Dragon.

"Connie, you are too impulsive!"

"This is a chance to become a pastor."

The other pharmacists couldn't help but sigh for the girl at this moment. The opportunity to rise to heaven in one step and cross the class was in front of them, but the girl in front of them refused without hesitation.

"But I really haven't heard of that lawyer. I don't have any faith in him, so how can I become his pastor?"

"You can cultivate without faith!"

"No, I only believe in His Majesty the Holy Dragon Noah."

"But His Majesty Noah is not a god!"

"To me, His Majesty the Holy Dragon is no different from a god."

Looking at the group of kind pharmacists in front of her, Connie said firmly without any hesitation or confusion in her eyes.

She knew very well that she was able to grow up alive because of the Holy Dragon, because the Holy Dragon established orphanages in various places in his territory to adopt all kinds of abandoned babies.

This is a special institution that does not exist in the territory outside the Holy Dragon. And the Holo Pharmacy in front of her is also a chain organization established by a pharmacist who follows the Holy Dragon. It specializes in treating various difficult and complicated diseases for civilians who have no money to hire mages and priests to treat diseases.

Although these pharmacists did not cure her, it was precisely because of their existence that she felt the beauty of the world and gave her the motivation to live.

"This is a devout believer!"

Noah, who had regained consciousness, saw a strand of pure golden thread spreading from the void, and looked in the direction of the source of this strand of faith power with some surprise. He looked at a girl who was making a vow,

"If I must have faith, then I am willing to dedicate my body, mind and soul to His Majesty the Holy Dragon!"
