Life is tough, so Honglong resorts to performing?

Chapter 83 A peaceful day?
In Loren, the zoo naturally had far fewer visitors today compared to the weekend.

Fortunately, he was happy to have some free time. He didn't have to perform, and he could eat and sleep well, which was a rare moment of leisure in his busy life.

Today, he can peacefully meditate deeply on the skull of the Frostfire King and take a nap.

The only thing to worry about is the beef placed on top of the lava inside the building, but Loren is confident that he has calculated the heat conductivity and that it should be roasted to a good taste by noon.

As noon approached, many people were still waiting outside the Lava Heart venue due to the recent performances and online controversies.

Even though the druid apprentices in the park had told them that there would be no red dragon flight show or red dragon grabbing food today.

But... what if?

After all, the performer is Red Dragon; what if he wants to perform?

Of course, there are also people who didn't come to see the performance.

Some of them came to laugh at Loren, some came to capture his mistakes, and others came to exploit his negative online presence so they could create their own accounts.

For example, this one.

"Look, it's that red dragon that scratched our innocent and adorable Miss Lena!"

"As a performer, you are not professional at all, you don't work hard at all, and you just lie outside the venue sleeping all day. Is this the attitude of a performer?!"

"Those tourists even said he was cute. He also abused the fire elementals living in the same venue, using them as a heat source for grilling meat, and beating them up if they didn't agree!"

"Does a guy like that even deserve to be your fan?!"

The man was shouting at the top of his lungs in front of the camera, but the noise didn't attract Loren's attention. However, it soon drew the attention of the park staff, who began to talk to the noisy man.

The man became even more excited at this sight, after all, conflict generates buzz, buzz translates to money, and money is everything!
He began arguing loudly with the staff, including the druid apprentice Isa, as if his loud voice made him right.

"Well, there's no other way then, it's our turn to take action."

Isha and another druid apprentice sighed, exchanged a glance, and then one of them began to change, while Isha's hands began to glow with magical light.

You can't listen to human language, can you?

In the blink of an eye, Isa took away and turned off the man's filming equipment, while another person transformed into a brown bear and stood quietly in front of him.

"If we talk to you like this, will you be able to listen to us even a little bit?"

Isa stood next to the brown bear, fiddling with its filming props, and asked slowly.

The Green Leaf Rare Animals Zoo is not a typical zoo, especially for the Druids there.

If you disturb the animals' activities, they really will take action, without hesitation.

"So what if someone is a professional? So what if someone is a druid? Druids are amazing! My nephew is a warrior!"

The man stubbornly insisted, even though he knew that professionals were indeed remarkable.

As a class that uses magic, the Druid is a hundred times more sought after than his nephew's Warrior class.

"Your Cuiye Rare Animal Zoo is bullying tourists, I'm going to expose you!"

The man shouted.

"Go ahead, I recorded everything you just did. If you think you're in the right, you can start a war of words with me on the Magic Crystal Network, you clown."

Then someone else joined in, this time a young human girl.

She also had a camera device hanging around her neck, but this one seemed to be much better than the man's.

She wore a sun hat, carried a small bag across her shoulder, and dressed in simple, durable outdoor clothing. Her eyes revealed disdain as she looked at people.

"And who are you? Where did you come from? You're in cahoots with that zoo!" The man was even angrier; he realized this might turn into a viral video...

But his filming equipment is still in the hands of that half-elf over there!
He was anxious and angry because he hadn't been able to record such great footage!
"Who am I? I'm a bard, a freelance photographer, and I also do some video editing on the side."

"You can call me Lyra. My personal account, 'Stupid People's Observation Log,' has about a few hundred thousand followers. Would you like to have a pleasant debate with me?"

The woman who called herself Lyra spoke, and the man who heard her quickly realized something, his face changed drastically, and he fled in panic.

As someone preparing to start a new account, he had naturally heard of this woman's reputation, or rather, her infamy.

She takes pleasure in destroying other people's accounts.

What they excel at is fighting and arguing on the Magic Crystal Network until they completely categorize the opponent's account as a fool.

She particularly enjoys targeting accounts that spread misinformation or engage in emotionally charged content, and since he happens to work in the emotional category, he falls right into her target range.

Her hundreds of thousands of fans are no ordinary fans; they are all people who love to have fun and are highly capable of causing trouble.

They claimed that if the sky were to fall, they could hold it up with Layla's mouth.

To be precise, this is a prime example of a fan's behavior, where the celebrity pays the bill.

The fact that she has been able to remain active on the Magic Crystal Network speaks volumes.

"Miss Leila, I wonder why you've come here..."

Isa was clearly familiar with the Magic Crystal Network, so she was quite in awe of this young lady's prowess.

She was curious as to why the other person had come here.

"Of course, we want to see what a stupid dragon that dares to go against the devils is like."

Leila said with a smile, then paused, adjusting the filming equipment in her hands as she spoke.
"The result was beyond my expectations. This sleepy fellow is not a stupid dragon at all. On the contrary, he is surprisingly photogenic."

"You don't charge tourists extra for taking photos here, right? Let me make this clear first: even if this set of photos is sold and makes money, I will only pay this guy once, and I won't pay him a share."

"Layla asked."

Isabella was both amused and exasperated.

"There are generally no extra charges. If you do sell it, you can contact our business manager, Mr. Morris."

"That's good."

As the two chatted, Loren awoke from his meditative and sleepy state.

Only then did he barely notice what was happening outside, and he saw that Isa seemed to be talking to some human girl.

Loren didn't care; he could accept both new fans and those who came to criticize him.

He needs to go eat now.

Loren raised his dark red wings, flapped them twice, and used his magic to take off. He then circled in the air like a hang glider, going from the top of his skull to the eye that was farther away from him.

"After lunch, I can watch Dragon Legacy for a while in the afternoon, have dinner at the cafeteria after get off work, review some old knowledge in the evening, and then take some new online courses. That's how the day goes by."

"As far as life is concerned, this kind of stability and peace is really good."

Loren thought to himself.

He returned to the heart of lava, opened the container above the magma, and was greeted by a mixture of spices and meaty aromas.

Loren grinned. Dinner was served again!
