บท 44: Sudden Commotion

Everyone disembarked their respective carriage as they prepared to set-up camp for the night. 

According to Erika and Randy, the path leading from city to city was patrolled by mercenaries. If any beast were found, they would immediately send a message back to the nearest city and work with them to kill the stray beast to maintain the safety of the roads. 

The case of the Wingless Land Fire Dragon was of a rare occurrence and a mind boggling one at that. For a creature that big, it should have been easily spotted by wandering mercenaries. 

Regarding that, Randy could not help but speculate that it might have come from an undiscovered underground tunnel and emerged from there. He already reported this to the Mercenary Guild of Red Stone City though so they should be assembling capable warriors to monitor or even subjugate that Wingless Land Fire Dragon.
