Chapter 198: The Legacy of the Dragon Slayer
According to the information Mo Hao learned from the villagers, those lizardmen did not attack the human village simply for racial reasons.

The lizardmen, or dragons, attacked humans because they received orders from their superiors.

An order from Caesar, the Lord of Greed, one of the seven deadly sins.

Many demon kings have appeared in this world, all of them were tyrannical. Some of them have been defeated and their bodies turned into ashes.

Some are so powerful that it is impossible to defeat them, and the only way to deal with them is to seal them. These are the seven deadly sins and the seven demon kings.

After knowing the number of demon kings that appeared in this world, Mo Hao's first thought was what heavenly law this world had violated?
As a result, powerful demons who destroy order appear every now and then, causing great damage to order.

Even the people in this place have become accustomed to the occasional lunatic who calls himself the devil, bringing a bit of bloody shock to their peaceful lives.

Destroy a kingdom for no reason.

The creatures in a certain area were required to keep their crying at 70 decibels, no more and no less, for three full days without interruption.

What if there is an interruption?

Countless stone spears will be dropped directly from the sky, slaughtering everyone indiscriminately.

The reason for all this might simply be that a demon king's pet died, and he wanted all creatures in the area to hold a funeral to mourn with him.

Perhaps the only thing that people in this world can be thankful for is that there is only one demon king in each time period.

But this definitely does not mean that the Demon King is the only one who can bully them as much as he wants. The Demon King is just the one who torments them the most and the most cruelly.

The Demon Dragon King Caesar is a giant dragon demon king who unified the dragon clan with his absolutely powerful force. His desires and greed are like an abyss that cannot be filled.

He sent his dragon race to capture cities and territories, and constantly attacked countries to plunder their treasures.

Even driven by his endless greed, the Demon Dragon King's eyes were set on more than just treasure.

That was all the information we got from the villagers. More detailed information was not available to the villagers living in the village. Even this information was provided by the leading teacher.

As for the villagers, they knew even less.

After bringing the villagers to the destination town, Mo Hao did not stay there for too long. He asked how to get to the nearest city and then planned to leave.

Before leaving, Mo Hao quietly gave each villager two silver coins. In this world, gold, silver and crystals are generally equivalent. He also knew that the villagers did not take anything with them when they fled, and if he did not give them some help, they would have a hard time in the future.

After giving the final help, he walked alone on the road, heading towards the nearest city.

Mo Hao has not yet decided where to go, but he heard a piece of news from the town.

The king of the Reyasinwa Kingdom is recruiting troops on a large scale, recruiting the strongest men in the world to fight against the greedy demon king Caesar.

When he first heard the news, Mo Hao had to admit that the King of Reyasinwa was a courageous guy. Even though the dragon army under the Demon Dragon King Caesar had destroyed many countries, he still dared to brazenly pose as if he wanted to kill the Demon Dragon King Caesar.

Regardless of whether the other party has the ability to do this, the courage alone is worthy of respect.

Mo Hao also had the idea of ​​giving it a try. In his opinion, gathering people to defeat the devil had a high probability of unlocking a milestone.

"I wonder if the Greedy Demon King is still considered a dragon."

The Dragon Destroyer Swordsman, who was walking on the road by himself, couldn't help but think of this question. If Caesar was still considered the worse of the dragon race, then Mo Hao would have a great chance of winning. The Dragon Destroyer Swordsman had the effect of "Dragon Race Must Die" written on his face. Mo Hao didn't think that any dragon race could jump in front of the Dragon Destroyer Swordsman. He even thought that the big sword behind him should not be called the Dragon Killer Destroyer Sword, but the "Dinosaur Killer".

No matter whether you are a dragon or not, if I say you are a dragon, then you are a dragon.

But when Mo Hao arrived at the nearest city, he received news that he had to change his destination.

The Kingdom of Reyasinwa was destroyed by the dragon army under the command of the Demon Dragon King Caesar half a month ago. The king died on the spot. The dragons completely set the capital of the Kingdom of Reyasinwa on fire, and the capital became a bonfire for the dragons' carnival.

Then the Dragon King Caesar released his army and ordered his men to seize more wealth and offer it to the Greedy Demon King.

In the bar of the Mercenary Union, after silently listening to the information provided by the bartender who was a part-time intelligence officer, Mo Hao couldn't help but sigh slightly.

It’s a pity that the king died too quickly. If he had died slower, who knows, he might have triggered some side quests.

Mo Hao was about to turn around and leave when he saw that the bartender had not left, as if he was waiting for something. He smiled and took out a few gold coins and placed them on the table.

"If there is any other interesting information, I would be happy to hear it."

The coins on the table were said to be gold coins, but in fact they were just gold squeezed into round shapes, without any emblem of the king or country on them.

In a sense, this kind of thing is privately minted currency and is counterfeit.

However, pure gold is more popular than currencies of various countries that are mixed with other metals. After all, currencies of various countries are more backed by the credit of their own country.

And gold?
It is a general equivalent, or even hard currency, so there is no possibility that others would not accept it.

The bartender's eyes lit up when he saw the gold coins on the table, and he reached out and took two gold coins.

It’s not that he didn’t want to take all the gold coins, but the bartender knew the rules and had to do as much work as he was paid.

My information is only worth this much. If I take more but cannot give out corresponding goods, I will have to pay with my life.

If the bartender is a newcomer or a layman who doesn't know much about money and information, he may want to cheat.

But the bartender also believed in his own eyes. In his eyes, Mo Hao was the type of person who should not be provoked.

The bartender didn't see any fear of danger or respect for order in Mo Hao's eyes. If he took the other party's money but couldn't give him something suitable, the other party would really kill him on the spot.

As a bartender in the Mercenary Guild Bar, a pair of eyes that are good at discovering which people can be provoked and which cannot be provoked is a basic skill to protect your life.

"The Reyasinwa royal family is not completely extinct. It is said that the royal family that escaped from the capital of Reyasinwa is planning to go to the secret inheritance place of the Reyasinwa royal family to receive the ancient inheritance."

The bartender lowered his voice and said something that aroused Mo Hao's curiosity, "What inheritance?"

"The legacy of the dragon slayer!"

"The last royal family intends to inherit that legacy and slay the Dragon King Caesar."
