A spatial rift that looked like a curved lens appeared, and the silvery-white Petrachelys emerged from it. Out of hyperspace, the spacecraft was now hovering in space.

There, Hao Ren was looking at a strange star system.

An old yellow star was orbited by 22 solid planets and three gas giants. Three of the twenty-two solid planets had signs of life, even civilizations. Guided by the navigation signal, the Petrachelys descended to a position just above a planet in the habitable zone. This planet had the mildest weather of the three life-containing planets. The navigation signal showed that Galazur and Anthony Alfonso were waiting for them on the planet.

“We have to leave the spacecraft in orbit,” Hao Ren said, turning to look at the others. “Nolan, switch the antenna to forwarding channel. Mimir, stay online, wait for Nolan to connect to Yggdrasil and then talk to him before it fled.”

As the oldest and largest pan-civilization sphere in the galaxy. Chattar was vast and complex. Its inspector, Anthony Alfonso, had an enormous influence in this area, but he was not able to reveal his identity in all places. Just as Hao Ren needed to conceal his identity to those civilizations that had not yet met the assessment standard, Anthony Alfonso remained mysterious in the eyes of most kingdoms of this region.

Inspector Alfonso was regarded as a powerful but mysterious sage by the civilization on this planet.

Therefore, Hao Ren could not openly land his spacecraft. Considering that this was the territory of the inspector, even if they directly went down there, there would not be any danger.

Except for Mimir who stayed back in space, the rest of them teleported themselves to a predetermined coordinate on the planet’s surface. As the teleporting halo dissipated, Hao Ren opened his eyes and found himself standing on a high mountain.

Endless mountains spread out in front of his eyes with towering ancient trees grew on their slopes as if a sea of green waves. The ancient forest was shrouded in a green light. The magic energy carried a sign of life filled the forest. Even if this energy was only sensed from afar, it was enough to inspire one’s spirit. Above the forest of life in the high blue sky was a faint magic circle of runes. Exquisite and spectacular, it was actually an enchantment near the stratosphere. This massive enchantment shrouded the forest from the sky above to the land below.

Deep in the forest, Hao Ren saw a city hidden in the shadows of the forest, or rather a kingdom. Elegant and beautiful, the colors of the buildings resembled the colors of the forest, coupled with the interference of the magic field filling the whole area, it was hard to spot at first glance.

Lily ran up to the large boulder not far away and looked down. After a while, she came back down and ran up to Hao Ren. “Mr. Landlord! How come no one came to pick us up?”

“In a bit. They should be here any moment.” Hao Ren waved his hand and looked at the city in the distant forest curiously. “The environment of the planet is very well preserved. From what I see, it should be a magic civilization.”

Before his voice trailed off, a warped light curtain appeared in the distant air. A golden dragon emerged from it and flew straight in his direction.

It was Galazur.

The golden dragon’s movement was so fast that it had reached the mountaintop where they were standing with just a few flaps of its wings. A large shadow was above them before the giant creature landed, creating strong air turbulence that nearly blew them away. When Galazur set her foot on the mountaintop, Hao Ren went up and greet her. “Ahh, long time no see! Your arrival is always as awesome as ever.”

“Not as awesome as yours,” Galazur quipped, lowering her head slightly. “Climb on my back, I’ll take you guys to Anthony Alfonso.”

They climbed onto Galazur’s back, and Lily grumbled, “It looks too crowded, don’t you think?”

Vivian suddenly flipped her wings open and said, “Riding on her back makes me feel embarrassed. I’ll fly myself.”

Galazur shook her head. “Please don’t feel that way. Just hold on to the bone plate on my shoulders, You can dangle from one of them.”

Vivian was at a lost for words.

They huddled on Galazur’s back. The dragon queen spread her wings and launched herself into the air, flying towards the kingdom hidden in the distant forest. Hao Ren rode behind Galazur’s neck so that he could talk with her. Although they could communicate via telepathy, he preferred to shout at her from behind her neck. It made him feel like he was a dragon knight.

The romance of a man; it gave him a chance to feel as if he was no longer a dog rider.

“What is that place? It looks cool!” Hao Ren asked aloud, pointing at the forest below him.

Galazur turned her head around slightly. “The Elven Empire, Grandia. This planet is a rare serene place in Chattar. At least compared to the battlefield, it is much calmer. Due to the decline of civilization happened much earlier here, the environment also recovered much faster. I really like to come here for vacation. Anthony Alfonso likes the scenery here, where he settled down more than 100 years ago.”

The dragon queen changed its direction, keeping herself away from the city center and flying north along the giant wooden wall at the edge of the city. “The elf is the most powerful race of the planet. But to be honest, they have begun to decline in the past two years. The alliance of human and demihuman is rising in the southern continent, the traditional magic of the elves had an underlying disadvantage compared to the magic technology of the human alliance. We estimate that within 50 to 100 years, both sides will come to war. But as far as the current situation is concerned, the relationship between humans and elves is not that bad. Oh yes, Anthony Alfonso is a human, but he has been living in the vicinity of the Elven Royal City for a long time. He is a powerful ancient human magician here. Even the elves feared his magic, so they let him settle down next to their royal city.”

Galazur reduced her speed and descended down a cliff at the edge of the giant wooden wall.

“He lives in the green woods down the cliff. He’s a bit quirky. You’ll know when you see him.”

Galazur’s words aroused his curiosity, but she did not elaborate further. She found a landing spot at the bottom of the lush cliff: a vast open space where a weather-beaten, pointed mage tower built of rocks stood.

Galazur form shifted into human form and brought them walking towards the mage tower. Hao Ren noticed that the space surrounding the mage tower was not completely empty. Small magic creatures were roaming in the open area; unconscious, whirling arcane bodies; strange life forms that looked like animals but covered in magic patterns; and also restless little devils. Devils that other mages summoned might be dangerous but not by the inspectors. These little devils were submissive servants to him.

The little devils and magical creatures surrounded them and spoke in weird voices. “Hey handsome, do you want a hotel room?”

“Hi pretty girl, do you want to have some local specialties?”

“Mister, do you want to wash your car... Oops, you’re not driving?”

“Ouch, you’re stepping on my foot!”

“Damn you. Since when does a fire elemental have feet?”

“Please step aside and let me have a look at the guests!”

“How can you see clearly when you’re in the belly of a wind elemental, you idiot!”

Hao Ren was speechless.

Right when he started to wonder if these noisy magical creatures were the quirks of Anthony Alfonso, a massive stone door at the bottom of the magic tower suddenly ground open. A young man ran out of the door hurriedly and shouted, “I can’t do it! Teacher, please find someone else! I can’t stand it anymore!”

Again, Hao Ren was speechless.

What was the heck going on?
