Chapter 466 Celia is going to be sold into slavery

From the moment those two men opened their mouths, Celia knew they were the kind of 'tour guides' who preyed on foreigners.

If you actually develop feelings for someone based on just a couple of sentences and let them take you to Dragon Island, who knows if you'll end up being lured into a slave caravan or a slum.

Even if you're lucky, you'll still get ripped off and won't be able to leave without buying the items they specify.

Of course, these are purely malicious speculations. Perhaps the other party is indeed a kind-hearted tour guide who only charges a small tour guide fee.

If the goal is to enslave someone, then Celia might be a little more interested.

But if it's just a paid tour guide, then forget it; she doesn't have the time to tour Dragon Island with a guide.

Instead of following others around and moving from one place to another before you've even settled in, it's better to travel slowly on your own.

March, the start of the school year, is still a long way off, so Celia isn't in a hurry.

Just take your time.

Dragon Island is the Blue Dragon Empire's gateway to the world. It has products from all over the world, including materials. Perhaps you can gather all the materials here, and then you can spend the rest of your time traveling.

With random thoughts running through her mind, Celia prepared to enter Dragon Island.

Just then, the two people who had introduced Dragon Island to her earlier ran over, chatting amongst themselves.

"Miss, please don't walk so fast. We really just want to show you around Dragon Island."

"That's right, we are followers of Lord Erina, we admire his glorious deeds, and we just want you to know about him."

"Yes, yes, and you can't get into Dragon Island just by going there like that. You need Dragon Scales to enter Dragon Island. Without Dragon Scales, you can't get in."

Celia paused, then asked, "What are dragon scales? The scales of a giant dragon?"

Seeing her stop, one of them, a man with a stubble on his face, said, "It's not dragon scales, it's a badge issued by Dragon Island. Because it looks like dragon scales, it's called 'Dragon Scales.' Anyone who wants to enter Dragon Island, except for the residents, must have this."

Another guy with slicked-back hair and a somewhat effeminate appearance, who seemed to have put on some makeup to make himself look more handsome, said, "[Dragon Scales] aren't something anyone can just get. If you don't know how to obtain [Dragon Scales], you'll be like a headless fly, searching everywhere without finding them."

“So…” Celia crossed her arms and looked at the two of them.

She wasn't carrying a staff or a flying broomstick, and she was wearing clothes that most people could afford.

These disguises are, of course, to avoid being discovered.

Disguise is essential when entering the capital of another country.

She originally planned to use the Mercenary Guild badge, along with the universal badge—the gold coin—to enter the city directly.

But judging from their exaggerated performance, could it be that without the [Dragon Scales], it's really impossible to get in?
Celia felt that the two were too hasty; were they trying to sell secondhand [Dragon Scales]?

still is……

The girl narrowed her eyes slightly.

The bearded man said, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Jack, and this is Sam. We're not stopping you with any ill intentions; we just want to tell you..."

He leaned closer and whispered, "We have a way to buy dragon scales. Do you want to buy some?"

Celia subtly took a step back to keep him away before saying, "I don't believe it. What if we don't need any so-called 'dragon scales' to enter the city?"

Sam chuckled: "You can go ask around. Don't blame us for not warning you, it takes quite a while to get from here to the city gate and back. Are you sure you want to make a wasted trip?"

The other person was very confident when they spoke.

Celia could tell that they weren't lying to her; it seemed that entering Dragon Island really did require "dragon scales."

After thinking for a moment, Celia asked with interest, "How much are your dragon scales? I can buy one if it's not more than 1 gold coin." Jack and Sam exchanged a glance and chuckled, "We don't have the ability to get dragon scales to sell, but we know who sells them. Just come with us. Besides, dragon scales aren't that expensive; you can buy one for 5 silver coins."

"Really?" Celia asked with a half-smile.

“Come on, come on, I’ll take you there.” Jack said, reaching out to grab Celia’s shoulders.

Celia took a step back and said coldly, "Watch your hands. We're not close enough for you to touch each other."

A ruthless glint flashed in Jack's eyes. He chuckled and said, "Sorry, sorry, I was too hasty. Come on, let's go. I'll take you to the merchant who sells dragon scales."

As he spoke, he walked toward a small dock next to the floating bridge.

After a moment's thought, Celia followed.

A young man named Sam followed behind Celia.

Soon, they reached the shore. Jack jumped onto a boat first and called to Celia, "Come on up. Besides taking the floating bridge into the city, we can also take a boat. The merchant is on Dragon Island. We'll take you there."

Celia looked surprised: "Didn't they say you need dragon scales to get to Dragon Island?"

Sam behind him laughed and said, "That's inside Dragon Island City. Dragon Island is very big, and some places are outside the city. Those places can only be reached by boat, and the checks aren't as strict as at the floating bridge gate. Even fake dragon scales can get in."

Celia boarded the boat, stood at the stern, and said with a half-smile, "So the merchant you introduced was selling fake dragon scales?"

Jack chuckled: "What's the difference? As long as we can get into the city, it's real."

Celia nodded. "That's true."

After Sam boarded the ship, the silent boatman activated the magic circle on board, using it to propel the ship toward the side of Dragon Island.

This small boat can only carry four or five people, and the magic array has no stabilizing effect. It rocks and sways when sailing at sea, and if it goes any faster, it will be swept away by the waves and bounce up and down.

"Hey, miss, sit down, or you might fall into the sea," Sam called out.

Celia stood steadily at the stern and shook her head: "No need, I'm very steady, I won't fall. By the way, aren't you going to wait for two more people?"

Sam said, "This boat can hold a maximum of five people, and it won't cost much to go back and forth. We're lucky if we get even one customer. We won't wait for people; efficiency is our priority."

They're making it sound like it's really true.

Celia thought to herself.

She didn't ask any more questions, and stood at the stern watching the small boat ride the waves, slowly circling Dragon Island.

As Jack Sam said, when viewed from the side, Dragon Island appears very large, resembling a giant warship with pointed ends and a thick middle. The observation deck is located directly in front of the pointed end, which is why Dragon Island looks small.

However, that high platform is the only one that can overlook the city of Dragon Island. The terrain in other places is level with Dragon Island, so there is no viewpoint. Incidentally, it is also next to the main road, which is convenient for sightseeing.

Celia admired the scenery of Dragon Island; its unique and rugged architecture was quite beautiful at first glance.

Jack and Sam exchanged a glance, their eyes showing surprise, as they watched Celia standing steadily at the stern.

The two huddled together and whispered to each other.

"Could she be a sorcerer?"

"It's possible; only a sorcerer could stand so steadily."

"Not necessarily, special training can also help."

"Who cares? Sorcerers are more expensive anyway."
