Saint Karno City is located on a vast plain, without city walls due to the Magic Energy Shield provided by the tower outside the city.
From a distance, one can see the dense clusters of buildings inside, with an open and prosperous atmosphere enveloping the entire city.
Among them, a towering spire rises on the edge of Saint Karno City, like a ribbon connecting the city to the sky, reaching the clouds.
The team members all stood outside the carriage, gazing at the city in the distance.
"Saint Karno is so beautiful!"
Shami couldn’t help but express his amazement.
Saint Karno is unlike any city he’s encountered along the way, filled with a blend of magic and modernity.
"Let’s also have a look at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, everyone!"
The guide pointed to the snow-covered peak nearby.
Since the altitude here has reached over two thousand meters, some of the higher mountain tops are almost all snow-covered.
Meanwhile, the temperature on the plains has become quite pleasant, feeling cool even under direct sunlight.
In sight, apart from Saint Karno City, everything around is a comfortable expanse of green.
The convoy slowly advanced to the outskirts of Saint Karno City and dropped off everyone.
Shami and Elze had no luggage, as their belongings were kept in their Storage Rings, and walked directly into the city.
Once inside, both subconsciously moved closer to each other until shoulder to shoulder.
Wide and bright streets, eclectic buildings, grand and exquisite signage, a continuous flow of pedestrians, lively and bustling.
With just a glance, Shami saw no less than five professions.
The dashing Swordsmen with long swords, tall Knights riding by, young Mages buying milk tea on the street, each living their own lives, without interference...
This city is like a big melting pot, harmoniously gathering all professions, all races, all people together.
"Feels like a country person entering the city."
Shami nodded in agreement.
He truly came from the countryside.
"Should we continue further in?"
"Yes. Let’s familiarize ourselves with the city, otherwise we won’t know which way to run later."
"Wait, there are too many people, losing each other would be troublesome."
Elze grabbed Shami’s sleeve, slightly raising her head.
"Why don’t we hold hands? You know, common sense says not holding hands might lead to getting lost."
"No, it doesn’t matter if we don’t hold hands, just suggesting."
Elze stepped back a bit, her cheeks a little flushed.
She thought after their nightly research these past days, they had reached that level, but it turns out they were still in a normal boss-subordinate relationship?
Bosses and subordinates shouldn’t hold hands in public, otherwise, it’s too risky if discovered.
Just surprised for a moment, Shami quickly took Elze’s hand, and the two walked into the crowd.
Elze stared blankly at the point where their hands connected.
The two heard heavy breathing on the street, followed by loud noises, and they moved with the flow to stand on either side of the street.
Two massive black lizards crawled forward hauling goods, each about five meters long and two meters high, with several humans sitting on their backs, looking down at the crowd.
"Earth Dragons, those are Earth Dragons!"
Someone beside them shouted.
Shami learned the identity of these large lizards.
So, they are Earth Dragons?
Elze had mentioned before that Earth Dragons belong to the low-ranking Sub-dragon Species, already tamed by humans, now serving as creatures for hauling goods over long distances.
These two lizards seemed tired, their gaze listless.
Shami glanced at Elze.
Elze’s expression appeared a bit complex.
"Are you worried about them?"
"Not at all. Although they’re used for hauling, they eat and drink well. Besides, Chameleons rank even lower than Earth Dragons among Sub-dragon Species, what right do I have to worry about them."
Elze glanced at Shami, shrugged her shoulders.
Just, how to describe this feeling...
Despite the Dragon Race blood flowing through, so far, they’ve only existed in human form.
As a dragon, yet never having truly interacted with the Dragon Race...
The two Earth Dragons slowly passed by Shami and Elze, then one of the Earth Dragons looked towards the two.
In the next moment, the Earth Dragon opened its mouth, letting out a low roar, its front legs uncontrollably lunging forward, and the pedestrians on both sides quickly dodged.
An unexpected riot from the Earth Dragon?
Shami quickly shielded Elze behind him.
The people on the Earth Dragon’s back exerted themselves to regain control over the dragon.
"Sorry about that, maybe it’s been seven days without rest, the Earth Dragon needs a stretch and some rest."
"Better let it rest instead of saying such things!"
But the people on the Earth Dragon’s back no longer paid attention to him, looking disdainfully at the two, then slowly rode away on the Earth Dragon.
Watching the Earth Dragon hauling team gradually fade away, Shami felt puzzled by the earlier scene.
"Did it just look at you, Elze? Could it be it recognized you as a fellow species?"
A somewhat scared Elze shook her head.
"I don’t know. But doesn’t need to react , right? Clearly, there’s no conflict between Chameleons and Earth Dragons; in the wild Chameleons can’t fight Earth Dragons, they keep a safe distance."
