Chapter 477
by post_apiChapter 477: Dragon’s Den Street
“Don’t be afraid, because something happened, and these Earth Dragons have now become my followers.”
Lin Yu reassured the brown-haired girl beside her, who looked a bit frightened.
At that moment, the Earth Dragons also heard the noise and lifted their huge dragon eyes to look over.
“Master.”
When the white-haired girl appeared, these Earth Dragons immediately stood up and lined up in two rows in the cave, lowering their strong dragon necks to clear the way.
“Are… are they all Sister White Feather’s… followers?”
Jilly felt that she had never been so surprised in her life as she was today.
She thought that it was hard to believe that the Ant Clan could control five flying dragons, and yet there were so many Earth Dragons that had not shown themselves.
Just by looking, there must be at least thirty or forty of them, right?
“Yes, and more than half of the Earth Dragons are not here; otherwise, you would see even more.”
“And… and more than half of the Earth Dragons?”
Does that mean there are over a hundred Earth Dragons?
Imagine hundreds of Earth Dragons flying in the sky, filling the air with a breathtaking sight… The brown-haired girl swallowed hard.
“Alright, let’s not bother them. These Earth Dragons here, taking a summer break, are lazy. Let’s go outside and not disturb their rest.”
“Master, I am not lazy!”
The girl with yellow hair protested, hugging her left arm tightly.
“Yellow Hair, you are a wolf now. No, wait, you are a cat girl! Not a dog, and have you forgotten something?”
“Um… meow?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Lin Yu playfully rubbed the little wolf girl’s ears with both hands.
…
Because the entrance of the dragon cave was incredibly tall, before everyone even left the cave, they felt a sudden openness just by looking at the entrance.
As soon as she stepped out of the dragon cave, the sight that appeared before Jilly made her eyes widen again, and she stood there, stunned.
A town?
She rubbed her eyes and looked again.
In front of the entrance of the dragon cave was a smooth road made of stone slabs, and on both sides were clusters of buildings, while further ahead were even busier streets and a square.
Besides that, on both sides, there were also new streets and buildings under construction.
Apart from being a bit smaller, what was in front of her was exactly a small town of the human race, right? Wait, this was deep in the Granville Monster Forest, and behind her was the cave where the Earth Dragons lived; how could a human town exist here?
Jilly suddenly thought of a possibility and turned her slightly stiff neck to look at Lin Yu, who was still playing with the wolf-eared girl and Lvzi.
Lin Yu felt the gaze of the girl next to her and smiled as she explained.
“This town was built by workers to imitate Simon’s Aowenduo Town. It took over three years to reach this size, but now that the Ant Tribe plans to establish a country, this town might need to be built bigger and fancier.”
“And you guessed right, all these beautiful passersby in the street are my daughters.”
Lin Yu sounded a bit proud.
Look at all these beautiful daughters! I gave birth to them!
“Since dinner time is still early, let’s take a walk around the street. Even though it’s just a small street now, it has everything for eating, drinking, and entertainment.”
After a pause, Lin Yu looked at Jilly and asked,
“What do you think?”
“I… I will just listen to my sister.”
…
As soon as the girls on the street saw Lin Yu, they all became obviously excited, but there was a rule on this street: they couldn’t just rush over to Lin Yu when they saw her, so there wasn’t any chaos for the moment.
After all, there were not thousands but hundreds of girls on this street, and the thought of them all rushing over made Lin Yu feel a little headache.
And if she had to greet them one by one… it might take most of the day just to say hello to all these girls.
So the rule was that only Lin Yu could greet them first.
As she walked along, Jilly’s eyes widened in amazement.
The street was filled with various delicious-smelling foods and chilled drinks, all made by Worker Ants with the “Culinary Talent” skill, who were great at cooking.
Even Jilly, who had traveled the continent and tasted many local foods, couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
“Tasty, right? If it’s good, eat more! I promised to treat you well. Ah, but don’t eat too much; save some room for the welcome banquet tonight.”
“Welcome banquet?”
Jilly, who was puffing out her cheeks while eating, suddenly came back to her senses.
“Welcome… to my place?”
“Of course, I have no intention of hosting a banquet for that kingdom’s general, and that guy probably can’t wait to leave this forest now.”
Lin Yu gently touched the head of the girl next to her, who had grown taller than herself.
“What if Jilly just settled down in the forest and made this her second home?”
Without waiting for the girl to respond, Lin Yu continued,
“You’ve already seen a part of the Ant tribe’s strength. What do you think? If we wait for the kingdom to fulfill its promise and ally with the Ant tribe, officially recognizing the Ant tribe’s establishment, it will be easier for those two adventurers who caused your mother’s death to be found with the kingdom’s help, unlike searching for a needle in a haystack like you did.”
“By the way, Western Village One has also been given to the Ant tribe by the kingdom. Now that they are part of the Ant tribe, those villagers will naturally be under our protection.”
“Of course, if you want to live the life of an adventurer, you can leave anytime, just remember to come home and visit when you can.”
After talking for a long time and addressing all of Jilly’s worries, when Lin Yu looked back at Jilly, she saw that the brown-haired girl had tears in her eyes.
It was unclear which part of the long talk had touched her, but the brown-haired girl hugged the white-haired girl tightly once more.
Lvzi and Huangmao exchanged glances and smiled, choosing not to disturb them.
“Alright, alright, Little Jilly, dear, you’re not alone anymore.”
The white-haired girl gently patted the girl’s back, but after saying this, the girl could no longer hold back her tears and buried her head in the white-haired girl’s shoulder, crying loudly.
After some time, the crying gradually quieted down.
Feeling a bit embarrassed, Jilly couldn’t bring herself to lift her head from Lin Yu’s arms, her face turning red.
“What do you think about the suggestion we talked about earlier?”
When Lin Yu’s voice came, the brown-haired girl finally let go and nodded at Lin Yu.
“If my sister doesn’t mind my human race identity… I, I also…”
“Of course I don’t mind, you know that before I was reborn, I was also a human.”
“Hmm! But sister, regarding the matter of taking revenge for mom, I won’t refuse your help, but I won’t just stay in the forest and do nothing.”
“Do you plan to continue looking for your enemies on the continent as an adventurer?”
“Hmm.”
“Since that’s the case, I won’t try to persuade you, but there’s no rush. For now, just stay at home for these few days, and I’ll introduce you to some of my other daughters.”
“Hmm!”
Jilly nodded happily.
