Chapter 278 - 194: Despairing
"From the look on your face, you’ve already discovered my secret?"
The station master calmly took a sip of coffee, gesturing with his hand, "Please, sit."
Zhou Yuan closed the door and sat down in the chair in front of the desk, with a steaming cup of coffee in front of him.
"You knew I would come?"
"More than twenty minutes ago, I saw the attack on Zuanshi Town through the surveillance footage. I then had an emergency telegram exchange with the mayor of Fire Seed Town and understood the situation. I just didn’t expect you to arrive so quickly."
The station master glanced at the surveillance footage on the nearby screen, sighing, "And I certainly didn’t expect you could command these... legendary powerful creatures."
Even in the Wasteland World, there were still stories and drawings of "dragons." One legend bore a striking resemblance to the Torch Dragon myth: a giant divine dragon existed outside the world, and when it opened its eyes, it was day; when it closed its eyes, it was night. The world was plunged into endless darkness because it was asleep, and only by awakening it could the perpetual night end.
Later, the people of the Wasteland World founded a religion based on this myth, but within a few years, the Goddess Night Cult eradicated it, turning it into a speck of dust in the two hundred-year dark era.
"Are these creatures... a specialty of your homeland?" the station master couldn’t help but ask.
"Yes, I was able to come here from the distant Great Tang of the Eastern Land all thanks to their speed," Zhou Yuan lied with ease.
