Chapter 1690Chapter 1690
Finally, Silas revealed his request. Dragos was beyond the reach of society, and had survived on its own with its own clan laws
away from the rest of the world. They never caused trouble to anyone... but that didn't mean they could have peace. The
dragon's saliva was their clan treasure which blessed their land, but its rarity and value had brought them a lot of danger. Over
the years, the number of greedy people that tried to attack the village had increased, each more scheming than the other. It was
clear that the dragon's saliva brought them more trouble than blessings, so the villagers of Dragos had to find something to
protect them if they wanted to survive.
Silas had been worried sick about such things until he met Stefan.
Although Stefan was rude, he was different from the others who had come to the village. Silas could tell he was a refined person,
and that had given Silas hope. On that day, the guards at the memorial chamber had caught Stefan, tied him up, and left him in
the hall at the head of the village. The villagers raged, wanting him to be punished for what he had done to their beloved dragon-
they wanted to cook him over a fire to pacify the dragon's wrath. Silas tried his best to dissuade them, and finally locked Stefan
up in a dark room beside the memorial chamber. He figured someone would come to Stefan's rescue given his status, and when
that happened, he could negotiate with them. As expected, Quinton and Xavier had come over with their men right away, and
they were more powerful than Silas imagined. The fact that they chose not to destroy the village to rescue Stefan made Silas feel
they could be trusted, and that perhaps they could have the power to protect Dragos and its villagers.
“My request might be a little unreasonable but... it's the price you have to pay for taking the dragon's saliva." Silas had stopped
being aggressive, and his old face looked desperate and hopeful. "If you agree, Dragos will live on fora very longtime." "That's
it?" Xavier asked, looking perplexed. He thought they would ask for a lot of money, but their request was rather simple. He felt
quite sympathetic for the people of Dragos after hearing their story, so he didn't find the request unreasonable.
"If you say yes, we'll need your thumbprint for confirmation. If not... we'll risk our lives to fight you!"
The surrounding villagers immediately tensed up when Silas said that, and gripped their weapons tightly.
"There's no need for that. This guy and | have men-they can stand guard at the foot of the mountains or at the head of the village
to protect you all throughout the year as long as you let Stefan go. It's completely free of charge." Xavier agreed quickly. It wasn't
tough for him to arrange such a thing.

"| don't object either." Quinton looked
at Silas. Compared to Xavier's casual
attitude, he was more sincere. "I don't
have many men, but they're bold and
loyal. | believe they'll do their best to
protect Dragos as long as | tell them
to." "That's great." Silas sighed in
relief. The content is on

Quinton added, "But my sister might
need to use the dragon's saliva given
her condition; | hope you can agree to
that." "If you both sincerely protect
Dragos, you'll be considered our
saviors. We might be a little rough
around the edges, but we're honest
people. Yes, the dragon's saliva is
rare, and we get less than fifty
milliliters of it every year, but we're
not so stingy to keep it when it can
save our savior's life," Silas said
straightforwardly. The content is on
