Chapter 332: 330 Norton’s Visit_1

Translator: 549690339

The three members of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce who were imprisoned in Yellow Sand City were rescued by Angelina.

Of course, Angelina wouldn’t dare to do so without Otto’s permission.

Thus, another month passed.

Although Otto’s main body still hadn’t awakened from its slumber, the Dragon Bone Wasteland had gradually ceased to be peaceful.

Many heroic warriors and even criminals had gathered here, but the first to draw Otto’s attention were not them.

Moreover, most of them gathered on the edge of the Dragon Bone Wasteland, and if nothing unexpected happened or there was no chosen one to lead them, these mobs would not dare to easily venture into the Dragon Bone Wasteland.

However, some stubborn fellows formed adventurer squads and entered the interior of Dragon Bone Wasteland, only to meet their end by being torn apart by monsters or undead.

Among them, some were rushing to join the Purgatory Demon Dragon, and these people were almost all purely evil monster races or real villains who didn’t blink when killing.

Usually, they had to undergo some trials to prove their strength.

If they passed the test, they could join the Purgatory Demon Dragon’s army.

And if they failed…

It was nothing but turning their flesh into monster food and their bones into materials for conversion into undead.

As for all these matters, they were mostly handled by Otto’s subordinates, and he didn’t need to worry about them personally.

At this time, Otto in his Dragonman form was idling in the renovated Har City when Lizardman Bark came over.

He was now mainly responsible for coordinating the intelligence work around the Dragon Bone Wasteland, and these days he had been asked by Otto to handle intelligence in the north of the Dragon Bone Wasteland.

Since all the trade city-states within the Dragon Bone Wasteland had already been wiped out, the trade routes to the Snow Field had suddenly become bleak.

There was still a human kingdom within the Snow Field called Norton.

Although they overcame the bitter cold and could compete for survival in the Snow Field with many fierce beasts and monsters,

due to the scarce resources in the Snow Field, the Norton people often had to rely on trade with various merchant teams to exchange for food.

Whenever a merchant team visited Norton, the Norton people would offer high-quality snow furs and various precious gems produced only in the Snow Field.

Of course, gold coins didn’t work in Norton.

Compared to those metallic currencies that were good for nothing but their appearance, the Norton people valued various grains and beans that could fill their bellies more.

Only recently, due to the turmoil in the Dragon Bone Wasteland, many merchant teams had not come for trading.

Many Norton people’s homes were almost piled up with mountains of gems and furs, but if they couldn’t exchange them for food, they were just items taking up space.

To find out what exactly had happened, under the urging of the King of Norton, some elite Norton soldiers left the icy snowy Snow Field and came to the Dragon Bone Wasteland with a completely different climate.

As soon as they appeared, they were discovered by Bark and his scouts.

The Norton people who came to the Dragon Bone Wasteland were not many, and their strength seemed very average.

If Bark wanted, it seemed that with just a single encounter, he could bring his men and kill them all.

But without Otto’s permission, he would never dare to do so.

After listening to Bark’s report on these Norton people, Otto thought for a while and then asked, “What do we know about the Snow Field?”

At this point, Bark looked somewhat embarrassed and said, “I’m sorry, Your Majesty, we know almost nothing about it, only that it is bitterly cold and surrounded by ice and snow all year round.

I heard that there are Frost Giants and White Dragons everywhere, and it’s a very dangerous area.”

Otto nodded, then asked Bark, “What is the purpose of these Norton people now?”

About this point, there was no hesitation in Bark’s reply: “Obviously, they are looking for a trade city-state that can provide them with food supplies.

Of course, now they can only find some abandoned city-state ruins in the Dragon Bone Wasteland.

In fact, if it weren’t for your permission, these Norton people would have been torn apart by hungry monsters and undead already!”

“On this point, you did a great job!”

Otto nodded and then chuckled, “Fighting and killing are too crude; now that we have a foundation here, we can’t always be engaged in banditry!”

“What do you mean?”

Bark looked at Otto with some confusion.

Soon, Otto spoke to him, “Go, find some people and bring those Norton people to me! Aren’t they looking for trade partners? Aren’t we quite suitable for that?”

Although he didn’t know why the great Silver Dragon Lord suddenly wanted to do business with a group of ants, this was not something Bark needed to worry about specifically.

Bark’s efficiency was quite good, or perhaps it was because the Dragon Bone Wasteland was empty and there was nothing to delay.

Before long, the Norton people came to Har City under Bark’s guidance.

After settling his subordinates, the leader of the Norton people was led by Bark to the inner city wall where Otto was.

Having gotten used to the spaciousness of the Council Chamber, Otto felt uncomfortable in ordinary buildings.

Even now, when he was only just over two meters tall…

“Are you the lord of Har City?”

Before the person arrived, Otto heard a rugged, loud male voice.

Following the direction of the voice, Otto saw a burly man wearing fish-scale armor and carrying a wide crescent.axe on his back, swaying towards him.

Through the opponent’s furry collar, Otto could see that under the heavy fish-scale armor was another layer of thick fur clothes.

It seemed like white bear fur or wolf fur, with excellent warmth.

But this was the Dragon Bone Wasteland, with a very hot temperature during the day, unlike the perennially cold Snow Field.

Wearing such thick clothes, weren’t they afraid of heatstroke?

It was said that Nord people were very cold-resistant, but that didn’t mean they were very heat-resistant…

As Otto thought this, he quickly discovered some shiny cyan-blue crystals on the surface of the opponent’s fish-scale armor.

And wave after wave of cool magical power was radiating from these cyan-blue crystals; this fish-scale armor seemed to be a magic item.

It appeared that the man was able to wear such thick clothes in the Dragon Bone Wasteland because of the effect of this magic item.

Just as Otto was thinking this, the burly man had already come in front of him.

“Huh?”

The burly man looked at Otto with some confusion and then said, “I heard that the lord of Har City was a dwarf…”
