Chapter 226 Battle with the Silver Dragon
Deborah and her copper dragon mother retreated to the right peak of Dragon Valley, making way for the iron dragon and silver dragon who were 'sparring'.
"Will they be alright? They don't seem like they want a simple spar."
Deborah's gaze fell on the two dragons with their bodies taut, and she couldn't help but whisper with some concern.
"Don't worry, Garus. Your father is careful and won't go too far."
Hearing her mother's words, Deborah blinked and lowered her voice, saying, "Well, what I'm actually worried about isn't Garros."
No spells or class skills are required.
Under these circumstances, Deborah did not have a high opinion of her elderly father.
She had seen Garus fight and knew very well how ferocious he was in battle.
That rugged and ferocious body is not just dangerous in appearance; it contains extraordinary power, and Red Iron Dragon's rationality is enough to perfectly control it and allow it to perform beyond its normal limits.
Silver Dragon Father used his weakness to clash with Galus's strength.
Even if there is a significant difference in the life levels of the two sides.
But it's really hard to say who will win or lose.
"Isn't it Garus who's worried?"
"Then what are you worried about?"
The copper dragon Serena tilted her head in confusion, but she didn't ask any questions, focusing instead on the upcoming battle.
At this time, the sky before dawn is grayish-blue, like an endless, undivided, dark gemstone, scattering a dim, faint light.
The silver dragon Edri, revealing its true form, spread its wings, the wing membranes shimmering with an ice-crystal-like luster.
He did not use any magical abilities, but the natural dragon might of the mature silver dragon still made the surrounding air stagnant, as if even the wind fearfully avoided this area.
The dragon's might was awe-inspiring.
He is not as strong as Red Iron Dragon.
However, with a length of 25 meters and a lithe and powerful dragon body that is far from slender, it is more imposing than the Red Iron Dragon.
Galos took a deep breath, his Cold Scales trembled slightly, his sword-like thorns clanged, and his muscles were taut like steel wire, ready to unleash their immense power at any moment, standing ready for battle.
Silver Dragon Edley made the first move.
He flapped his wings and approached Garus.
There was no violent impact; the movements were elegant and precise, yet extremely fast.
In an instant.
As the silver dragon approached, its forepaws shot out like lightning. Before the claws even reached the target, a sharp, chilling pressure had already slashed at Garos's mask.
Red Iron Dragon did not take the hit head-on.
He suddenly turned to the side, dodging the silver dragon's attack, while flames ignited on his claws. His claws, sharper than blades, burned red-hot like branding irons, and roared as they tore towards the silver dragon's head.
Bang!
A dull thud resounded.
Edley raised his left forelimb, his muscle fibers taut like tempered steel wire, taking the blow head-on. His mithril-like scales did not break, but were only slightly dented and cracked.
Having been honed over hundreds of years, the defenses of a mature silver dragon are formidable.
Silver Dragon sneered, its right claw changing its attack and pressing down, like a silver moon falling to the ground, drawing a chilling arc, aiming straight for Red Iron Dragon's neck.
Galos suddenly tilted his head and rammed into her with his shoulder.
Bang!
The silver dragon's giant claw slammed into the red iron dragon's body, almost engulfing half of Garus's body due to the size difference between the two.
Galos felt as if he had been struck by a mountain of cold iron.
Even without using any skills to amplify or enhance it, the silver dragon's claws were still imbued with a chilling aura and possessed immense power.
The sharp, jagged thorns on its body broke off one by one, were crushed by the silver dragon's giant claws, and then regenerated at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As the surrounding cold-burst scales cracked and collapsed, they absorbed kinetic energy.
While Galos felt icy cold all over his body, heat was gradually accumulating within him, becoming intensely hot.
The Cold Scales absorbed kinetic energy, preventing Garos from wavering despite the silver dragon's claw strike.
Under the slightly surprised gaze of the silver dragon, the red iron dragon suddenly looked up.
He met the attack head-on with his head, covered in the thickest armor, his towering dragon horns now transformed into his most powerful weapon, ramming into the silver dragon's jaw.
clang--!
A deafening metallic clang accompanied the shockwave, causing ripples in the air.
Silver Dragon possessed honed combat skills and did not allow Red Iron Dragon's headbutt to strike him.
Garus's headbutt slammed solidly into the silver dragon's claws, creating a visible ring of air.
In the sky, Edley was forced back half a step by the brute force, his claws stinging as the seemingly indestructible dragon horn pierced through his fine scales and tore through his flesh.
Galos felt a buzzing in his head.
Edley's bone density, scale hardness, and physical strength exceeded his expectations.
Silver dragons are always compared to red dragons and are never known for their physical strength.
But this is in comparison to the physique of the Red Dragon.
The silver dragon is stronger than most dragons, and among metal dragons it is only weaker than the gold dragon, and among five-colored dragons it is only weaker than the red dragon.
"You little rascal, I've got you."
Silver Dragon's father grinned, revealing an expression somewhat like that of a malevolent dragon.
*Snap!* Tear!
His claws unleashed power, allowing the red iron dragon's horns to penetrate deeper into its flesh, while simultaneously, like iron clamps, he used a single claw to envelop and grip the red iron dragon's head.
He endured the pain and retracted his hooked toes, letting the dragon horns tear through flesh and blood in order to lock Galos's head in place.
At the same time, the silver dragon's blood flowed from between its fingers through the wound torn open by the dragon's horns.
The ice crystals that landed on the Red Iron Dragon turned into clusters of ice crystals.
Galos felt his head being tightly bound, and a chilling aura seeped into his brain, freezing his mind, making his thoughts stiff, and his reactions sluggish.
Bang bang bang!
In that brief moment of hesitation,
Silver Dragon grabbed Red Iron Dragon's head with one claw, while its other claw rained down on Red Iron Dragon's body like a storm.
One by one, the cold-blast scales collapsed and shattered.
At this moment, Hong Tielong looked as if he was being unilaterally beaten.
but.
Silver Dragon knew very well that this wretched red iron cub's defense and counterattack were almost maxed out, and it hadn't been truly injured so far.
On the contrary, he had many broken thorns stuck in his claws, and his wounds were torn open by the dragon's horns, causing him to bleed quite a bit.
Those thorns are regenerating at an extremely high speed, and they are exceptionally sharp.
He would take some damage himself every time he attacked.
Moreover, he had already noticed that the Red Iron Dragon had double-layered scales. Now, although the scales seemed to be collapsing and fragments were flying everywhere, it was actually harmless.
"First, peel off the surface scales!"
Silver Dragon's mind raced, and his attacks became even more ferocious.
During this period.
The suppressed Garos did not put up a fierce resistance, but simply protected some weak points and quietly endured the 'beating' of the strong silver dragon. At the same time, as the Cold Scales shattered, the heat value in his body continued to rise.
He was waiting for an opportunity to retaliate.
Very soon.
Under the silver dragon's fierce attack, the outer layer of dragon scales on the red iron dragon's body almost completely collapsed and shattered, revealing the hard inner layer of dragon scales with a black base and red patterns.
"Dragon cub, next—"
A gleeful smile appeared on Silver Dragon's face, then it stiffened.
