Chapter 121 – Prince (1/2)
Chapter 121: Prince
Along with a loud noise, a large number of troops slowly walked out of a large-scale transportation magic formation that was located near Ji Hao.
On a gigantic, four wheeled carriage, large amounts of jade and gold pieces, and other treasures had orderly been placed. Large groups of sturdy, fully armed warriors were standing on both sides of the carriage with long spears held in their hands. Everyone looked at Ji Hao with curious faces.
Compared to those guards surrounding Ji Hao, the most appropriate word to describe Ji Hao’s body shape would be ‘tiny’. The shortest one amongst these guards had reached over four meters length, the hilts of their spears even were as thick as Ji Hao’s thigh.
Tens of tall and strong guards had circled around Ji Hao, the tiny kid, and were holding their spears towards Ji Hao’s body. This scene looked like a group of vicious dragons were bullying a week baby sheep.
Not only were the warriors who had been guarding the carriage staring at him in schadenfreude, but everyone that had noticed Ji Hao were staring as well.
Although everyone was curious about what was happening, no one made any sound, the presence of Ji Hao had caused a chaos on the square. All of the people remained quiet and silent, and kept walking in or out of those transportation magic formations, without anyone trying to come over to see what was going on.
Connected to what this elderly man had just said, Ji Hao instantly realised how strict the rules of this Zhu Rong Country were.
Ji Hao slowly raised his hand, showed Man Man’s tablet, and said in a deep voice, “I didn’t sneak in, I came for Man Man.”
Pausing for a second, Ji Hao continued word by a word, while staring at the elderly man, whose facial expression had suddenly become extremely weird, “If I am not mistaken, her full name should be Zhu Rong Man Man.”
Along with his voice, a red light flashed across the tablet, following which, a great fire-power was released from the tablet.
The serious-looking old man suddenly laughed out, deeply bowed towards Ji Hao and said, “Ah, ah, you are the young master, Man Man’s friend. Please forgive me, we had some misunderstanding. Can I ask what did you, our honoured guest, come here for, and is there anything that we can do for you?”
Tens of guards quickly drew their long spears back, saluted to Ji Hao simultaneously, and walked away in a line. While they were doing all this, none of them had said a word, and their movements were orderly and accurate, similar to a group of robots.
Another few men who were wearing similar red cloaks like the elderly man, came over one after another, and greeted Ji Hao with smiles. Ji Hao had not yet completely understood what the tablet that was being held in his hand meant, but these Zhu Rong Country’s servants certainly understood it well.
The tablet Ji Hao had just showed was one of the life-saving tablets that the Fire God, Zhu Rong, had given to his blood children. Every single one of these tablets contained a drop of Zhu Rong’s spirit blood, with corresponding spells, and these tablets could release all kinds of great powers.
In the Zhu Rong Country, these kinds of tablets were called the ‘Fire God’s Order’. What they were representing was the will of Fire God himself. Anyone who dared to disobey the will of the holder of these kinds of tablets would end up miserably.
Ofcourse, apart from the highest status and power of the Fire God himself, Man Man had earned the respect from all of these servants. Who didn’t know that the top ranking scary kid among the entire Zhu Rong Country was Man Man?
“I came for Man Man, take me to her,” said Ji Hao while putting the tablet back into the leather bag, tied around his waist.
“Okay, okay, just as you wish.” The few servants bowed deeply to Ji Hao again and spoke. The elderly man then straightened his body and waved towards the air, and followed by this move, the fiery dragons which were hundreds of zhangs long, with their entire bodies wrapped in blazing flames, slowly descended from the air.
The fiery dragons lightly landed on the ground, glanced at Ji Hao with its tank-sized, red pupils, then let out a deep roar.
Ji Hao eyes popped open, while staring at this fiery dragon in both shock and surprise.
Dragons had always been a legendary and mysterious animal, which had a special status in Ji Hao’s heart. Now, real dragons, with five claws, were quietly standing right in front of him. It was not a legend, not a picture, it was a real dragon. It had deer’s horns, a snake’s body, an eagle’s claws and a cyprinoid’s moustache. Mysterious spell symbols were flashing across its thick scales from time to time. Behind its gigantic head, a sphere of flame was fluttering in the air. It had real hair that was giving a strong and horrifying sense of stateliness, which only belonged to the dragon-kind.
