Chapter 185 Controlling the Crimson Silver Dragon, Practicing Dragon Taming Techniques
"Tell me, what is a hybrid dragon?"
After listening to the riddle posed by the Crimson Silver Dragon, Garos frowned and pondered deeply.
However, the riddle presented by the Crimson Silver Dragon this time did not offer any straightforward clues. It sounded mysterious and obscure, full of imagery, but lacked concrete expression.
In short, it's somewhat abstract.
Ambition? Hope? Change? Each answer is like scratching an itch through a boot, but none of them are entirely accurate.
For such an abstract riddle.
Galos refused to answer.
It's not that I can't think of a definite answer, it's just that I'm not interested.
Moreover, he is a descendant of the Red Dragon, so it's perfectly acceptable for him to resort to violence when in doubt.
What are you babbling on about?
Galus spread his wings and, surrounded by a raging gust of wind, his massive and imposing body soared into the air.
He stared at the crimson dragon and said, "I prefer to solve problems with force."
Samantha the Red Dragon, Therese the White Dragon, and other leaders of the local kin all had their eyes on the Crimson Silver Dragon, eager to make a move.
Seeing that the Red Iron Dragon was about to charge at him, and with many of his subordinates casting unfriendly glances at him, the Crimson Silver Dragon quickly raised his claws, making a gesture of surrender, and said, "Stop, stop, I'm not here to fight you."
Compared to before.
Deborah, having activated her silver dragon hybrid bloodline, has undergone many changes; even in her adolescence, she is stronger than an adult white dragon.
When the Crimson Silver Dragon witnessed the fierce battle between Garos and the Demon Bull.
She felt that if the Demon Bull were stronger, she would intervene halfway through, deliver a righteous blow, and make Garos owe her a debt of gratitude.
If Galos ultimately wins.
She also had the idea of taking advantage of the fact that Red Iron Dragon had just finished fighting and hadn't fully recovered, to beat him down and humiliate him severely, and to avenge her defeat.
but.
Seeing that Garos was unharmed and had few visible injuries, the Crimson Silver Dragon Deborah wisely abandoned the idea.
In Deborah's eyes.
Galus also underwent significant changes.
He had become even more monstrous and ferocious, his physical strength was unbelievable, his unique wings were unprecedented, the thorns on his body were dangerous and menacing, and the golden lightning that erupted from his body during his battle with the demon bull surprised and intrigued Deborah.
Why is this hybrid dragon so powerful and capable of such dramatic changes?
There must be a secret about him.
The Crimson Silver Dragon thought to himself that he might be able to uncover the secret to Garos's power.
"You didn't appear here for no reason."
Upon hearing the Crimson Silver Dragon's words, Garos suppressed his urge to act immediately.
He is a descendant of the Iron Dragon, so it's reasonable for him to observe first before making a decision.
Galos asked, "What do you want to do?"
Across from him, under Garos's gaze, the Crimson Silver Dragon smiled slyly and said, "The answer lies in the riddle, hybrid dragon, think about it again."
Galos: "I'm not interested in your puzzle."
The Crimson Silver Dragon tilted its head, its gaze clear and bright.
"You played guessing games with me the first two times, so I don't believe you're not interested now."
After a pause, the Crimson Silver Dragon said in a tone of realization:
"You're probably just pretending not to be interested because you can't figure it out. Hey, don't rush me. Riddles are more fun when you think about them slowly, aren't they?"
Galos fell silent.
A faint golden current, like tiny snakes, appeared beneath his scales, and a subtle, scorching sensation filled the air.
The Crimson Silver Dragon's smile stiffened slightly. He pursed his lips, thinking to himself that the Red Iron Dragon was indeed born evil, and he was already angry and embarrassed just because his thoughts were exposed.
"An adventure, it is an adventure!"
The Crimson Silver Dragon revealed the answer to the mystery.
She continued, "What you said last time made me realize something."
"I want to experience real adventures, not playful games."
"And you, Red Iron Dragon, you are easily targeted and subjected to hostility and attacks."
Finally, the Crimson Silver Dragon revealed its true request: "Please let me go on adventures with you! During this time, I will obey your orders as long as it does not violate my moral principles."
Galos's eyes flickered as he made his calculations.
If Dragon Valley could have one more metal dragon, it would undoubtedly be a good thing.
If he had had a metal dragon under his command back when he was in the Sel Wilderness, standing in the spotlight, it would have prevented the subsequent troubles.
No one wants to see a horde of evil dragons.
Without protection and sufficient strength, a group of evil dragons will encounter all sorts of troubles and problems on their path to growth and development. However, if they have metal dragons with them, most of these problems can be avoided.
As for the Crimson Silver Dragon's moral code.
Metal dragons are benevolent dragons, but there are different types of benevolence.
Copper dragons and brass dragons are standard examples of chaotic good.
These types of intelligent beings primarily act according to their own ideas, are kind-hearted, believe in justice, but do not agree with worldly laws and regulations, and follow their own moral principles.
but.
While these principles are well-intentioned, they may not align with the common understanding of goodness.
The justice they believe in may also be different from the justice recognized by the public.
Gold dragons, silver dragons, and bronze dragons are standard examples of lawful good.
They are dedicated to fighting evil, upright, honest, help those in need, uphold justice and speak out against injustice. They can carry out every task diligently, are reliable, and trustworthy.
If it were a lawful good dragon, it would probably disapprove of Garus's behavior.
but.
The Crimson Silver Dragon before me, whose silver-dragon hybrid bloodline has been activated, still retains its copper-dragon personality, perhaps due to the fact that the hybrid bloodline was activated later in life.
Using shapeshifting to disguise her extortionate behavior proves that she still aligns with the chaotic good.
Her moral bottom line might not be higher than his. Garos pondered that the Crimson Silver Dragon should be very useful.
However, 'taming' the copper dragon's chaotic yet benevolent nature is no easy task.
Galos thought about it seriously and concluded that the key was not to refuse her puzzle game, or even to take the initiative to propose puzzles.
Different dragons require different strategies and techniques. To make the Copper Dragon obsessed with you, you need to be a master of riddles.
—Garos's dragon-taming technique has gained another addition.
"Want to join me on an adventure? Sure."
Galos thought for a moment and said, "But I won't take you in for nothing. You need to provide a sum of money as a price."
The Crimson Silver Dragon's expression turned gloomy and conflicted.
She finds it hard to part with her wealth.
Although Garros robbed him more than once, being robbed and handing over one's wealth are two different things. Greed for wealth is not only the nature of evil dragons, but also an uncontrollable trait of metal dragons.
Galos then changed the subject, saying, "If you can answer my riddle, I can take you on an adventure for free."
The Crimson Silver Dragon was slightly taken aback at first, then a bright and delighted smile spread across its face.
Galos had anticipated all of her reactions, and they were exactly as he had predicted.
Simple and easy, just right.
What kind of puzzle should I come up with?
Out of the corner of his eye, Galos caught sight of the devastated land littered with corpses, and a thought flashed through his mind.
He cleared his throat, mimicking the tone and style of the Crimson Silver Dragon, and said in a melodious, rhythmic voice:
"It feeds on blood and its mournful cries; I ignite its fuse when I wave my scepter, and you traverse the forest of swords only to retrieve its crown."
"It sips the last drop of blood from heroes and ruminates the first lie of cowards; it forges thousands of medals on broken spears and buries the same spark under scorched earth."
He paused slightly, looked at the bronze dragon, and said, "Tell me, metal dragon, what is it?"
