Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 117: First arrogant then respectful, the truth of the world
The moment Noah stepped out of the hall, he saw his adoptive mother standing in the main seat. There was no way he could avoid it. His adoptive mother's presence was so strong and eye-catching at this moment that it was hard not to notice her.

Even adoptive father Cassius, the most powerful legend, could not hide the brilliance of adoptive mother at this moment, it was too dazzling.

Of course, this is also related to his adoptive father's current low-key attitude. However, no matter how low-key Cassius is, he is an existence that no one can ignore.

"Little Noah, come here!"

Selina held the hand of Gwendolyn, a graceful girl with a slender figure. The surging magic power attracted the elements in the Mage City, which naturally turned into halos and surrounded her body. Even unconscious elemental elves took shape and danced around her.

As the adoptive mother, who seemed to have been promoted, waved, many eyes were cast towards Noah. At this moment, in this magnificent hall, there were not only the adoptive father and mother.

In addition to the Dwarf King and the Dwarf Godcrafter whom Noah knew and explicitly invited, Noah also saw many very unfamiliar legends, including several sea creatures who were simply soaking in water balls.

The most eye-catching one is undoubtedly a giant mermaid swimming in a huge water ball suspended in the air. She perfectly fits the common people's fantasy about the mermaid species.

Long azure hair spread out in the water ball, a delicate and flawless face, a proud upper body slightly covered by shells, and a slightly slender lower body with a fish tail embellished with colorful scales.

Perhaps the only thing that was beyond ordinary imagination was her body size. Even though her fish tail was slightly bent, Noah could tell at a glance that her body length was over ten meters.

Noah stared a little longer and immediately caught the mermaid's attention. She gave him a shy friendly smile, looking like a shy girl.

But among the many auras that filled the hall, crisscrossed and were about to materialize, this mermaid was not only not suppressed, but was also one of the most conspicuous ones, which was enough to show her power.

"An old fellow pretending to be young!"

Jin Long composed a sentence in his mind and flew slowly to his adoptive mother without any pressure at all.

As for the suppression of the legendary aura, although Noah was still a long way from this level, he could not suppress him in this regard. Moreover, these were just naturally emitted auras, not hostile targets.

"I don't think I need to introduce him too much. In this land, there are legends about him everywhere. He is my and Cassius' adopted son, the Holy Dragon Noah!"

Under the gazes of many people, Selina began to introduce herself.

Noah, who had been nonchalant, suddenly looked embarrassed. Although he was not afraid of legends and was confident and courageous, he felt guilty about the title of Holy Dragon.

This name is too big
"Hahaha, I've heard of the holy dragon many times, but I didn't expect it to be just a teenage dragon? A juvenile dragon?"

"This body type should be that of a young dragon, right?"

"How is that possible? Don't you feel the age in him? He is still very young now."

"Young Dragon!"

The adoptive mother confirmed the somewhat uncertain legend.

"He's this big and he's still just a young dragon?"

"After all, he is a golden dragon known as a holy dragon. His large size is not a big deal. I think his wings are very beautiful."

The mermaid soaking in the big water ball also spoke, her voice was very beautiful, melodious and pleasant.

"Thank you!"

Noah expressed his gratitude and looked at the mermaid with more favor. He liked people like this who had vision, unlike his old father who had no appreciation at all.

"Noah, guess what I'm going to do when I call you over here?"

Selina drew Noah's attention again.

"I guess you're planning on giving me a surprise."

Noah's gaze unconsciously turned to the two dwarf kings and the dwarf master craftsman who was arguably the shortest in the hall.

"I do have a surprise for you, but it's not about them. That's not really a surprise."

When the golden dragon's gaze turned back, a graceful figure with an ethereal temperament and a misty look condensed and took shape in mid-air, with two pairs of transparent butterfly wings fluttering behind it. It looked like a giant goblin, but its size was close to that of a human.

"Gugfell, this is the spirit of the Mage City you designed!"

塔灵
Noah looked at the tower spirit curiously. Judging from her appearance, her adoptive mother was obviously influenced by the big fairy. She was completely a large fairy, and more refined.

"I grant you the highest authority under myself. You have the first authority over all places here. You can manage everything here."

Selina spoke in front of everyone, and amidst the already astonished gazes, she gave the Tower Spirit an order that outsiders could not understand.
"If I disappear from this world for more than a hundred years, or if my soul vibrations disappear, the Golden Dragon Noah Helios La Mondon will inherit all my authority and become your master."

"The order has been accepted. The Golden Dragon Noah Helios La Mondon has become my first successor."

Taring repeated the instructions mechanically.

It was at this moment that Noah's perception changed. The spiritual power that was originally gathered around his body was incredibly boosted and involuntarily expanded to the entire Mage City, as if he was controlling a huge body.
Moreover, this terrifying perception was spreading in all directions starting from the Mage City. The city of Elishim, which had a permanent population of over 1.5 million, was directly included in it.

This is the first authority of the Mage City he designed, which is also the manifestation of the deterrent power that a spellcaster with a mage tower can have.

With the help of a mage tower, a spellcaster can completely control an area, and when a legendary mage moves into a mage tower of corresponding level, the power he displays will only be more terrifying.

What's more, what Noah designed was not a simple wizard tower, but a veritable magic wonder city that would make legendary wizards envious upon seeing it.

It was only because of the existence of his adoptive father that the resources could be collected to build this magical wonder. Otherwise, it would be impossible and too difficult.

That is why the look that fell on Noah at this moment was so surprised and astonished. For outsiders, it was completely impossible to understand the order issued by Selena.

He is just an adopted son, not a biological child, so why would the first inheritance right be given to the adopted son?
Although it is known that the Duchess's son is of average talent, her granddaughter and grandson are particularly talented and are not inferior to her and her husband.

In this case, even if they were to choose a successor, they should have chosen from the direct descendants. Why would they give it to a foreigner? Although this was a golden dragon with an excellent reputation, it was still incomprehensible.

Everyone looked at each other, thinking it was ridiculous, but as an outsider, they couldn't comment on anything as they saw Cassius standing there silently without saying anything to object.

This is their own family affair. They must have their own considerations for making such a decision, perhaps there is some hidden secret. Noah didn't know how others felt, but Jinlong himself felt very complicated at the moment. Although his adoptive mother had promised him a long time ago, fulfilling the promise was another matter.

There are so many people who break their promises in this world. Even if it is a contract witnessed by the gods, there are still many who break it. But my adoptive mother did not do that. Instead, she went one step further than she promised.

The disappearance of soul fluctuations, the most cruel and harsh possibility for this condition to be realized is death, but there is another possibility that during the journey to another world, one goes to a place too far away, and the Mage City cannot sense it, which is equivalent to disappearance.

This condition is much easier to achieve.

"What? Unhappy? Are you still not satisfied, little guy?"

The adoptive mother's smiling words interrupted Noah's thoughts. When Jin Long raised his head, Selina reminded him,
"Are you still thinking about your weapons? If you want them so badly, you can take out your design drawings now and show them to Mr. Damien."

Noah followed his foster mother's direction, only to find that the person she was pointing at was the shortest dwarf in the hall.

"Mr. Damien."

Noah was very polite. No matter who you are, when facing a dwarf who has been awarded the title of God Craftsman, you will remain polite. This is the proper attitude.

Dwarves are one of the most famous human races in the world. Although not as famous as elves and dwarves, the most famous thing about this race is the endless number of craftsmen.

Different from the dwarves who are famous for their weapon forging, the gnomes are proud of their superb craftsmanship and are world-famous. They are able to create some extremely sophisticated and incredible special equipment, such as the Golden Mane Chariot and the Land Battleship.

"Well, Lord Shenglong, let me see the drawings you designed."

Faced with the immature golden dragon, the dwarf master craftsman, who should have been arrogant, also behaved very amiably. Not to mention that he still owed the dragon a favor, the couple's attitude was already very obvious.

"let me see."

When Noah took out the blueprint, several dwarf kings also came over.

"This is a very sophisticated weapon. What do you plan to use as the main material for casting?"

The dwarf master craftsman Damien made a comment, but from his calm tone, one could tell that Noah's design was probably mediocre in his eyes, and he couldn't pick out a single good point. He then asked what materials were used.

Such dry praise was obviously just polite talk. Not finding any loopholes in his writing was already a great courtesy. It was just a matter of social etiquette, and Noah could tell that.

"I plan to use solar meteorite gold as the main material. I wonder if it is feasible?"

Facing the master craftsman who has achieved the recognized highest achievement in his professional field, Noah's attitude is also very positive. It is true that he is a genius in all fields, but he is also a peerless genius in the field he is good at, and he has already brought out all his talents, which is not something he can compare with now.

"How big is the solar meteorite?"

Damien was stunned for a moment.

"Enough for me to sleep cross-legged."

"Such a huge solar meteorite? Where is it?"

The dwarf master craftsman didn't react much, but the two dwarf kings were extremely excited.

After some urging and pushing, Noah had no choice but to take the dwarf and the gnome to his collection room. After some exclamations and sighs, because it was no longer a public occasion, both the dwarf and the gnome were no longer polite, but showed their professionalism.
"The idea is good, but the design is too crude. We have to start all over again."

"Such a design is a waste of materials. Only beginners would make such a stupid mistake."

"If I had dared to create such a work when I was an adult, I would have been expelled from the tribe."

It has to be said that after these guys stopped restraining themselves, their comments were quite harsh and aggressive. But Noah was not a dragon with a fragile self-esteem and he accepted the criticism with an open mind.

Besides, these guys may curse and criticize, but they will also put forward suggestions for revisions and are willing to teach real things. So what's wrong with a few curses?
The real core knowledge will never be recorded in books, and some knowledge cannot be remembered even if you want to, it can only be understood but not expressed in words.

However, this depressing learning atmosphere with saliva flying everywhere lasted until Noah's adoptive father came in, and everything became harmonious again, because the main purpose of this trip was to forge weapons for Cassius.

Noah, who had just been learning with an eager mind, suddenly discovered that although his adoptive father knew nothing and sometimes made unreasonable demands, the little dwarf and the old dwarf were very good in attitude. Not to mention criticizing and mocking him, even if they thought Cassius' ideas were not good, they would remind him carefully in a roundabout way.

"..."

Noah looked at the dwarf master craftsman and the dwarf king, who could be described as fawning and bowing, and his heart was calm. There was nothing to say, as this was the reality of the world.

In other words, these are the basic rules of the world, which cannot be violated, or they themselves really cannot do it, otherwise Noah thinks these guys would not even say a word of opposition.

"Since you have no objection, the final plan is finalized. Your weapon will be cast according to the design in the plan."

The dwarf master craftsman, who was of high status, spoke in a very gentle tone. Noah also noticed that the waist of this little dwarf, who was not very tall, seemed not to be that straight.

"Well, yes."

Cassius nodded, feeling that the communication was very smooth this time. His requests were basically met, so he was very satisfied.

"My weapons..."

Noah also seized the opportunity and took advantage of his adoptive father's presence to finalize his own armed blueprint.

"Once we have finished forging Lord Cassius's weapons, we will also start working on your armaments."

While the dwarf made the promise, the dwarf also made a comment:
"To be honest, your weapons are more difficult to manufacture than those of Lord Cassius."

"If it's really troublesome, I can give you extra reward."

Cassius spoke up.

"It's just a little more difficult, but it's not a problem. Sir Cassius, please don't say that. If we accept your reward, I'm afraid we will be expelled by our tribe."
