Chapter 2976: Observations of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire

The Northland Alliance only recently began constructing a Public Computing Power Pool, but the Tower of Time had long since begun using the Spirit Thought Network, which could be considered an experimental public computing power pool.

Regarding how to share memories and to what extent, Saville was no longer a novice.

Very quickly, the two connected to the same network. Xia Duo steadied his mind and began to receive the information shared by Saville; the beginning of this information was a relatively complete segment of visual data—

It did not start from the moment Saville entered the Holy Golden Dragon Empire Plane; when the image appeared, the perspective was already in an unfamiliar human kingdom.

Saville was on the run. His initial intrusion into this plane did not attract the attention of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, but later, his frequent spellcasting in the human kingdom drew the pursuit of that kingdom's authorities.

However, truth be told, if Saville had not cast spells frequently, he would have been unable to blend into the human kingdom, let alone obtain basic information about that plane.

Saville did not show Xia Duo the process of blending in, but it likely wasn't a gentle or modest affair; this could be corroborated by the pursuit that followed.

If it were merely unauthorized spellcasting, that human kingdom wouldn't have been so idle as to conduct a full-territory search and synchronize the wanted Document to all other nations; the only exception was the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, the suzerain state.

As for how he settled down later, it sounds simple, but the process was actually quite harrowing; Xia Duo could glimpse the level of danger at the time just from the images Saville displayed.

In the end, Saville exploited the delay in information exchange between nations to flee from a vassal state to the Holy Golden Dragon Empire. It was not very convenient for vassal states to share wanted information, but synchronizing information to the suzerain state was not that difficult.

……

As for causing trouble, the Holy Golden Dragon Empire highly values order. One might have a chance to escape after committing a crime in a vassal state, but in the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, if the authorities want to catch someone, there is no one who can get away.

The coating materials produced in the factory where Saville worked were not for "coloring" golden dragon scales or external armor. In the city where I was, almost every night, a large number of golden dragons would race or perform aerobatics in the sky above the city.

Besides the fear of being exposed, there was another very critical reason why Saville did not choose to study magic at the City Academy, and that was, of course, his status as an outsider.

Of course, this also exploited the fact that the plane had been at peace for a long time. If Xia Shao were to sneak in later, it would be very, very difficult to blend in so easily.

The official citizens of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire are all golden dragons. Although they often transform into humanoid forms for activities, maintaining their dragon bodies and moving in dragon form is also very frequent and popular.

……

In the spellcasting network, Xia Shao experienced Saville's daily work routine from a first-person perspective; life was extremely regular, similar to a nine-to-five, producing a type of coating material in a factory.

Although they are not official citizens, non-golden dragon races such as humans, Elves, and Dwarves can still receive education in the Holy Golden Dragon Empire.

There is a City Academy within the Golden Dragon City—at least in the city where Saville was at the time. The City Academy provides free Dragon Language instruction, and magic instruction only charges a very small tuition fee, which Saville's factory wages could fully cover.

Of course, if one is a local, if one goes to the academy to learn magic, one can also use the Library for self-study or hire someone to teach.

Although browsing is faster through the spellcasting network, it did not display every little detail of the two years. Xia Duo chose to gloss over repetitive content.

This was also one of the important reasons why Saville was able to integrate into the local area quickly.

The factory where Saville worked had a level of advancement that was no longer inferior to the Red Heart Alliance. This was only a superficial understanding, after all, Xia Shao did not know much about Dragon Magic, and some things were indeed difficult to compare with Arcane Magic.

The mainstream is not about coloring scales; grinding and polishing are fine, but the mainstream does not mind coloring external armor, just like humans wearing clothes of different colors.

Dragon Magic originally stemmed from bloodlines, later becoming higher than bloodlines, eventually forming a relatively complete magic system.

From the lifestyle of one golden dragon city, Xia Shao could glimpse the general outline of this entire empire; this was a powerful nation that had already entered what he understood as the modern era.

Besides working in the factory, Saville would also play in the city during his leisure time, but because he was not an official citizen, there were restrictions in many places; for example, the Arena only allowed entry in dragon form.

At that time, the Holy Golden Dragon Empire had already unified the entire plane. Just like in Xia Shao's hometown, the country had been at peace for a long time, and the locals could never imagine that someone beside them was actually an alien.

Basically, they used whichever form was convenient and whichever form was comfortable.

Many golden dragons—not just the Night Flying Clan—would dye their scales to show their personality. Of course, these were non-mainstream and were not the main customers of Saville's factory.

But regardless, the real scenes and real experiences were far more profound and thorough than Saville's initial oral account and small amount of image introductions.

The entire Holy Golden Dragon Empire only uses two languages: one is Dragon Language, and the other is Elvish. It has minor differences from the Elvish of the Main Plane, but the system is similar.

Especially Dragon Language, which is an absolutely mandatory subject.

This can also be considered another scenario of "the ancestors plant the trees, and the descendants enjoy the shade."

But the appearance of a factory, and even one specifically for coating materials for external armor, is enough to show that the Holy Golden Dragon Empire's magic industry has already produced enough subdivided fields and upstream and downstream industries.

Very quickly, the memories of city life ended. Xia Shao was still somewhat unsatisfied, but Saville had already begun sharing his learning experiences.

However, Xia Shao did not study magic at the academy because it was very easy to reveal flaws. In the memory shared by Saville, this point was also explained—

The reverse is possible, but Saville was lucky; he did not appear in the Holy Golden Dragon Empire first, but in a vassal state. This was his lifeline, and perhaps his only lifeline.

It is not the same system. Casting spells in front of a high-level Spirit Thinker makes it very easy to reveal flaws. This is completely different from working in a factory; factory work only requires being able to Control a Magic Artifact, and some jobs can even be done by ordinary people who do not understand Spirit Thought at all.

Because Saville obtained basic information about the plane in the vassal state, after blending into the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, he became extremely low-key. For most of the two years in that plane, he was a worker in a small city of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire.

In the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, magic is not a rare thing.

Golden Dragon Cities do not restrict Spirit Thought; only high-ring spells are monitored. Anything below 5th ring is basically left alone. Saville was quite comfortable in that small city.
