Silver Dragon: From Shell to God

"Put your weapons down, this is a noble silver dragon!"

Just as the wood elves were stunned, an old voice broke the deadlock.

An old wood elf man, about 1 meters tall, who was quite tiny for Arden, and in his twilight years, came to the funds of both parties.

"Yes, village chief."

Hearing that it was a silver dragon, the adult men all breathed a sigh of relief, and even the other wood elves in the village who were looking around at Arden were no longer panicked.

"According to the rules we set before, 50 silver coins! Not a cent less."

Arden said to the old wood elf village chief.

"Okay, Mr. Silver Dragon, please wait a moment."

Well-informed, even though Arden had different scales than ordinary silver dragons, and had held tax collection more than once, the wood elf village chief still recognized the true identity of the giant beast in front of him at the first time.

Two wooden boxes that looked quite old were soon placed in front of Arden.

The white silver coins covered about half of the space in the box.

"Well, why are there five missing?"

Arden's eyes changed, and his tone immediately became stern.

"How is this possible? We pay the full amount of tax every year."

Hearing these words, the two adult wood elf men who were carrying the things were stunned and spoke in panic.

Elves are not as beautiful and sacred as described in traditional travelogues and books.

Whether it was during the most glorious times of the elves in ancient times or in their current decline, the elves are still a large race.

Although the elves will still take the initiative to punish evil and help the weak for the sake of kindness and justice.

However, there is still extremely serious exploitation within the elven society.

greedy!

Even the elves, who appear to be kind and who greatly admire art, are not immune to this.

Among the elves, there are wind elves, moon elves, wood elves and other high and low levels.

Except for the most powerful Silver Moon Elf, who has always occupied the royal position, around the mother tree.

As a low-level being, the Wood Elves look the same as ordinary Silver Moon Elves, but their bloodline and potential are completely different.

Like ordinary humans, they lead an extremely frugal life and are not qualified to enjoy art at all.

"Are you questioning me and saying I'm lying?"

Arden unleashed his dragon might, walked up to the three wood elves who were just tiny to him, and roared.

The huge and terrifying roar filled the eardrums of the three wood elves, almost deafening them.

"No! I mean, say"

The wood elf stammered as he tried to think of something to say, but was interrupted by the wood elf village chief, who held out his cane.

"Forget it, Kirk, go to my house and get five more silver coins to make up for your share."

Hearing this, Arden finally showed a satisfied smile.

Just like the reputation of Shanlong, Heshanlong cannot be equated with others.

Even lawful good silver dragons have the flaw of greed.

Arden is a pure silver dragon, and is naturally lawful good according to the camp identification book.

However, due to its chaotic neutral human nature and soul influence.

His alignment is now somewhat leaning towards lawful neutral.

That is, you can help others, but only if it does not harm yourself.

If it really doesn't work and the situation is tricky, you need to pay more.

When your life is truly in danger, follow the famous sayings from your previous life.

This is also a principle that Arden believes he will not change in his lifetime.

Let go of the need to help others and respect the fate of others.

Arden, who was unwilling to do anything without benefits, was assigned to patrol by Sasde and originally wanted to be paid.

But, Sasde just smiled, as if he didn't hear it.

Yaden hinted several times, but the ancient silver dragon dodged it every time.

He knew that he would not have any other income, so he certainly couldn't make this trip in vain.

Put your well-deserved spoils into the scales.

Then, he listened to the clinking sound of the scales colliding with his own shaking.

Arden smiled and put the two boxes of silver coins into the storage ring that Saster gave him.

No matter, the closed elf village, the young men staring at him closely, and the curious children looking at him everywhere.

He unleashed his dragon might once again without hesitation, forcing them all to retreat.

Flap your wings and get out of here.

-------------------------------------

Covering the sky and blocking out the sun, there are countless magical plants, as well as giant oak trees that reach the sky and are even hundreds of meters high, forming the core of a dense forest.

In front of a giant tree with a diameter of up to 10m.

"Dong dong dong."

"It's out. This month is also a tax month. Come out quickly."

The roar of a terrifying giant beast caused many leaves on the tree to fall, and the whole tree was shaking.

“Oh, there’s an earthquake.”

With a dragon's ears, it can only barely hear new and extremely subtle sounds.

Dozens or even hundreds of them suddenly appeared nearby.

On the trunk of the huge oak tree, there was a small hole about the size of a human head.

There is a wooden door at the entrance of the cave, which is exquisite and small, and there are several vines around it.

There are at least hundreds of such tree holes on the dozen or so oak trees nearby.

About several hundred little men, about an inch long, with a pair of wings on their backs, flew out during this "earthquake".

Panic-stricken.

“Pay your taxes!”

Arden roared, and his terrifying aura immediately silenced the group of panicked and noisy villains.

Arden watched all this with satisfaction. It seemed that everyone knew who the master was.

Forest fairies are a kind of natural life, and are extremely rare. They are all magical creatures that possess magic and innate spells and can learn magic.

It also lives in the forest and is one of the two favorite foods of the green dragon, which is one of the evil dragon clan.

But unfortunately, they only appeared briefly in the ancient times and barely managed to gain a foothold in the most prosperous elven empire at that time.

Nowadays, there are probably not many forest elves left alive in the Elf Forest.

They have the ability to sense magic, but lack the corresponding strength. Most of the time, they may not be able to cast even a first-level spell.

During the long years, they could only survive under the protection of the elves.

"ding dong"

After being shocked, hundreds of forest fairies confirmed that the horrific beast before them was not a green dragon or other magical creature, but the silver dragon, the ruler of this place.

Soon, they obediently presented their treasures one by one in order.

There were very few metal coins, just a few dozen copper coins and one or two silver coins.

Excluding acorns and so-called toilet water, the most valuable thing is a piece of red stone, a low-level magic gem.

Arden secretly placed the magic gem into his scales.

Then he gently rolled it up, put these so-called things into the main ring and went to the next place.

He did not blackmail these weak goblins, some of whom even trembled and cried just by looking at him, well, they obviously did not look like rich people.

After all, he didn't need acorns.

The forest elves are a clan of secluded people, and unlike the wood elves they do not trade with humans in the outside world.

In addition to the magical plant they cultivated, they were also overjoyed to have the gem.
