The Greatest Beast Trainer: Building A Nation On The Back Of A Dragon Chapter 24
Advertisement
Solomon began to think.
The water source was indeed a huge problem.
If there was no water, it was no different from death.
"Rain."
Two words came out of Solomon's mouth.
Ten minutes later, Nicole walked out of the bathroom.
"Solomon, go and wash up."
Nicole flicked her wet hair and said to Solomon.
"Wait, Nicole, come here for a moment."
Nicole did not understand, but she still walked towards Solomon's position.
"Nicole, what do you say we go get the rain?"
Hearing Solomon's words, Nicole immediately shook her head and said, "No, this rain is acid rain. We can't drink it!"
"During that period of time in the camp, there were people who were short of water. They drank the acid rain from the sky, and then their entire person became different. They directly used their knives to cut down anyone they met. If it was not for those hunting squad members who stopped them in time, I'm afraid a few more would have died."
Bang!
Solomon immediately gave Nicole a blow to the head.
"Who told you that I'm going to drink acid rain? I'm going to use it to bathe us. Otherwise, would it not be too extravagant to use underground water every time?"
Hearing Solomon's words, Nicole also felt that it was very reasonable and nodded.
After all, she remembered that it had rained not long ago, and she had also run in to take a bath. She did not tell Solomon about this matter. This was her little secret.
"Then how do we store the rainwater?"
Nicole asked.
"Simple, we need to make a bigger container. We still have a lot of useless logs at home. We can just do it."
"Alright, we'll discuss these things later. Let's eat first."
Solomon looked at the sky. It was already late, and he was a little hungry. Only when he was full would he have the energy to work.

When Nicole went to take a shower, he had already prepared dinner for her.
"You made all these?"
Nicole looked at the food on the table and covered her mouth in surprise.
"Yeah, I just randomly made them on a whim."
Hearing Solomon's words, Nicole rolled her eyes at Solomon. Did you randomly make these? She thought.
There were all kinds of food sculptures on the table. Solomon had only tried to see if it was possible, but he did not expect it to be easier to carve than wood. He made such a big table, and it looked pretty good.
"Okay, hurry up and eat."
Solomon took the head of a dragon and put it in his mouth to chew. Not to mention the taste was perfect, Solomon wanted to cook and eat like this in the future, but it was a waste of time.
Nicole did not hesitate anymore and immediately wolfed down her food like a person who had not eaten for a few days.
In a short while, the sumptuous dinner was divided between the two of them.
This time, Nicole restrained herself and did not eat non-stop.
"I'm going to get a container to collect rainwater now. You stay here and do nothing. I'll handle this small matter myself."
Solomon said to Nicole.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
After saying that, Nicole skipped and slipped into her room.
Her two rabbit ears were quivering and very cute. If Solomon had not restrained himself, he would have grabbed Nicole's rabbit ears and pinched them.
...
Solomon took out a very thick piece of wood outside the door and prepared to cut a hole in it to store rainwater.
Although he did not know when it would rain, his premonition told Solomon that it would definitely rain.
Solomon's premonition had always been very accurate. It did not matter if it did not rain. He could use it at any time. It would have been just a waste of time.

Bang!
This time, Solomon did not use a dagger to chisel. How long would it take to chisel such a small piece of wood with such a small dagger?
Therefore, Solomon decided to use the most primitive method, which was to smash his fist directly!
One punch after another, Solomon did not feel any pain. The system had long modified his body to have rough skin and thick flesh. This bit of power was just like scratching an itch.
The wood sank bit by bit, causing Nicole, looking at the house, to be filled with shock.
She did not expect Solomon's strength to be so great. Such a thick wood directly used his hand to smash it.
After smashing it for five minutes, the wood only caved in a little. Solomon was not discouraged.
Instead, he increased his strength and continued to smash it with his hands.
Even with his own strength, it took him some time to smash it down. Nevertheless, it could be seen how good the quality of the wood was. This was exactly what Solomon needed at the moment.
Another ten minutes passed.
Solomon stopped what he was doing. Instead, he took out the small dagger at his waist and began to chisel on it.
He wanted to use the dagger to chisel off all the edges of the wood. He would not be able to use his hands to smash through those small gaps. The small dagger also took effect here.
Solomon used the dagger to trim the corners of the wood. Then, he threw another punch!
Bang!
The wood in the middle was directly broken into two halves, forming a hole just enough to store the rainwater.
Solomon's control over his own strength had reached the level of perfection.
"Now I just have to wait for the rain."
Solomon placed this thing in a space. As long as it rained, he would be able to get the rainwater.
At that time, he would not have to make his entire body stink due to the lack of water in the shower.
"Awooo!"
At this moment, a wolf's howl entered Solomon's ears.
Nicole pulled Solomon directly into the house from the room.
She looked at Solomon with a face full of lingering fear and said, "The Night Wolf is a very dangerous beast!"
Solomon ignored Nicole's words.
Night Wolf?
I'm on the back of the Little Fire Dragon. Can you get up?
Solomon took out a small statue from behind and handed it to Nicole.
He was carving the young girl in front of him, Nicole.
"Is this for me?"
Nicole held the statue and could not put it down.
Solomon nodded. This was something he casually carved when he was bored.
Anyway, it was simply too easy for Solomon to carve something now.
Carving such a small thing only took about ten minutes.
This was also Solomon's leisure time entertainment.
"Awooo!"
Another wolf howl broke this romantic moment.
"Solomon, will the night wolf directly run up to us?"
Nicole heard the sound and became afraid again.
Solomon used his mind to communicate with the Little Fire Dragon.
"Roar!"
A sound that was louder than a wolf's howl, a dragon's roar!
It was the Little Fire Dragon's roar.
"Awooo!"
The Night Wolf's voice was obviously not as loud as before. It seemed to be frightened.
After all, the dragon's roar restrained most creatures.
Bloodline suppression!
"Let's go. Let's go to sleep."
"The Night Wolf won't be able to climb up. The Little Fire Dragon is here."
Nicole heard Solomon's words and nodded. She walked toward the direction of the room.

Dungeons Are Bad Business
Vee Vales has been kicked out of his home and directed to make his own way in the world. Along with his friend Alforde Armorsoul, Vee travels to the city of Oar's Crest. Once a prosperous and well-to-do city, Oar's Crest has fallen into depression and disrepair. After finding a strange stone that takes up residence in a tattered top hat and introduces itself as Reginald, Vee and Alforde decide to open a dungeon in Oar's Crest to revitalize the city and, more importantly, make some fleurs. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Author's Note: Dungeons are Bad Business (DABB) is a slow burn slice-of-life dungeon core litRPG citybuilder that's focused on the day to day experience of running a dungeon. There will be some action, but it won't be the focus of the story and Vee and his friends will usually overcome their problems with their minds and their pocketbooks instead of their weapons. Since I'm participating in the writeathon, I will probably be uploading chapters almost daily for the duration of the event. Thanks for reading!
8 100Legendary Farmer (available on Kindle July 2022!)
NOTE: Legendary Farmer is now COMPLETE. The first book, Clearing, was released on Kindle Unlimited July 5, 2022 with significant edits. I will post the first chapter of Clearing, as well as three chapters of Cuckoo's Dream, another novel in the LF universe, as a stub, with a link to the first book, so if you love LF and want me to be able to keep writing consistently, please go give Clearing five stars! In the VRMMORPG, Veritas Online, things are getting a little stale. Since the game launched, only one world- wide event has occurred, and that was a year ago.. The players are still having fun, but everyone agrees it’s about time for something big to happen. Everybody tends to forget that big things grow from small things, and little things are always changing in Veritas.The human country of Quarternell is at peace for the first time in... ever. Aspen, a former war hero, feels like he’s earned a quiet life together with his animal companions. They’re tired of fighting, and other people in general. They plan to live peacefully, far away from the city. As soon as Aspen figures out this farming thing out, he’s never going to go anywhere again. Unfortunately for Aspen, his country and his goddess aren’t quite done with him yet.Rouge the Rogue is a casual gamer in Veritas Online. She’s just a kid, and her focus is supposed to be on school and hanging out with friends. Emphasis on ‘supposed to’. She’s already pretty good at the school thing, and she doesn’t actually have that many friends. What she really loves is exploring all the cool ways the developers of Veritas found to make their game unique and realistic. Then she’s offered a very special quest, and an opportunity to go beyond the average player. She’s never been that much of a rule follower anyway....Clearing is appropriate for most ages. It has minimal foul language, no sex, and some violence. It is LGBTQ+ friendly. (P.S. IMPORTANT! This book contains very mild profanity, no sex, and is meant to be FUN. Yes, the characters sometimes think Deep Thoughts, and idealism pretty much runs rampant, but, in the end, I hope you just enjoy reading it. Laugh, cry, share it with your kids, read it to your dog, whatever makes you happy. My goal is for it to be accessible to everyone from ages 12ish on up, so you could definitely consider it YA, but with lots of big words because I don't believe in talking down to my readers.) Book Two: Harrowing (Starts after the original Chapter Fifty, now Sixteen, since I condensed chapters from the same perspective together.) Zoey has started her summer internship at Veritas Corporation, and she can honestly say that being an adult is boring. Until she starts learning secrets she was never supposed to know. In game, Rouge is finally making progress on her big quest. Apparently Duke Penbrooke took too long to return to the world, so the world is coming to get him... in the form of a few assassins. Aspen is going to have to face the life he left behind, and deal with the fact that it's not as easy being 'dead' as he thought. When what he'd hoped would be a short trip back to civilization to resupply turns into a whole lot more, he'll have to fight for his life, his friends, and his kingdom. Book Three: Sowing Rouge and Aspen have reached Bright, only to find that their enemies were already expecting them. They will have to quickly unravel the mysteries of who their opponents actually are, because they're already ten steps behind. Rouge and Aspen are finally home, but that doesn't mean they can return to their peaceful days of farming. Their enemies are hot on their heels and determined to destroy everything they've managed to achieve. Join them and all their friends for the final volume of Legendary Farmer.
