Chapter 229 The limp Crimson Silver Dragon, Ultra-fast Regeneration
"Little one, protect Deborah, she's in your hands now."
The voice of the bronze dragon Serena suddenly rang out, landing as lightly as a feather in the depths of Garros's consciousness.
The red iron dragon's neck scales trembled slightly, and it nodded silently.
Turning her head, she saw Deborah muttering to herself that her mother hadn't informed her before arriving, completely unaware of the undercurrent of crisis.
The copper dragon's unusual instructions confirmed his suspicions; a storm was probably brewing in the Dragon Realm, and this summons of adult metal dragons was unusual.
but.
This is not something he should worry about.
If the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up; if something happens to the Metal Dragon Domain, it's not his place to worry about it.
Silver Dragon looked at Deborah and said, "There is a barrier I set up in Red Maple Valley."
"Besides you, it's difficult for other creatures to break in, and I'll know immediately if you're attacked. If you encounter any fatal danger, remember to use your magic scales to save your life, and then go to Red Maple Valley to take refuge."
What a nice place!
Hong Tielong, shameless as ever, asked, "Can I go in too?"
"It's not for any other reason than that Deborah is too lonely all by herself, and I can keep her company."
The silver dragon remained expressionless, then suddenly raised its claws and slammed them down heavily on the red iron dragon's thick neck, the force of which nearly knocked it over.
Is this old man out of his mind?
Galos was furious, and then he noticed a rune on one of his neck scales. It flickered slightly and then disappeared into the scale, invisible to the naked eye.
"This is the rune key to enter Red Maple Valley."
"That's what the copper dragon Serena explained."
"Fairy Dragon, have you thought this through?"
"Do you want to come with me to the Boiling Sea Dragon Domain, and then I'll send you back to your homeland, or do you want to stay in the material world?"
Silver Dragon shifted his gaze to Vera, the fairy dragon, who was struggling among a patch of cornflowers, plucking the petals one by one.
After hearing Silver Dragon's words, she said, "Wait, let Vera make her choice with this flower, and the last petal will represent my thoughts."
"Go back, or not go back."
"Go back, or not go back."
“.”
The fairy dragon muttered to itself, plucking off a petal with each word. As the petals fell, the flower quickly became bare, until only one petal remained.
"Okay, let's go back."
As she finished speaking, the fairy dragon Vera plucked the last petal.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she curled another flower with her tail, as if talking to herself or explaining to the silver dragon, and said, "No, no, the flower wasn't bright enough. I don't like it. It can't make the choice for me. I want to choose another one."
Seeing this, Silver Dragon didn't urge him; he already knew the answer.
He looked at the Crimson Silver Dragon and the Red Iron Dragon one by one, and warned Deborah, "Your mother and I are not in the border area. If you encounter danger, we will not be able to get back to you immediately. Do not cause trouble or do anything reckless."
After a few seconds of silence, he spoke again to Galos:
"When I return from the Dragon Realm, I hope to see the border region become orderly."
Hong Tielong: "I will do my best."
Deborah chuckled and swayed her dragon tail: "Trouble? Do I look like a troublemaking dragon? I'm the most well-behaved one."
She waved her paw at her parents and said, "Go ahead and rest assured. I'm almost a young dragon now. I know how to take care of myself, and I know what I should and shouldn't do."
Serena looked at the red iron dragon with a satisfied look in her eyes.
"Hey, little guy."
The copper dragon suddenly tapped the iron dragon with its wing membrane: "Remember to play riddles with me for a while next time."
Her eyes held a cunning glint familiar to Garros, much like Deborah's gaze on many occasions.
“Ms. Serena, it is my honor, and I am happy to oblige.”
Garus's dragon face broke into a smile as it responded.
He could tell that the bronze dragon Serena didn't seem to harbor much hostility towards him, unlike the old silver dragon who always had a wary look in his eyes.
A cunning and sly dragon!
Silver Dragon grunted and remained silent.
After a brief explanation and farewell.
The silver dragon and the bronze dragon spread their wings and soared into the sky. As a burst of light flashed across their bodies, their massive forms gradually twisted and disappeared.
They used invisibility, and not just simple visual concealment, but rather made the scales refract the gradient colors of the sky, like a drop of water merging into the ocean.
The fairy dragon blinked and stared blankly in the direction where the two strong adult dragons had left.
Coming to her senses, she tossed aside the bare flower stem, her little wings flapping in a flustered arc: "Wait! The last petal said it wanted to go back!"
She shouted at the sky, but received no response.
Only a few leaves, blown away by the dragon's wings, drifted slowly down from the horizon.
"Alright, then we'll have no choice but to remain in the material world."
The fairy dragon sighed at first, but then quickly cheered up, flapped its little wings, and ran off to play pranks on the bears.
“Garos”.
The crimson-silver dragon twisted its long tail and said in a low voice, "You were interrupted just as you were getting into the zone during your training. Please continue to guide me now."
Exercise is just an excuse.
The key is Galos's 'guidance'.
The thought of his scorching and powerful claws landing on his body made the Crimson Silver Dragon's scales tingle and itch.
Guiding the Crimson Silver Dragon in training was a form of relaxation for Galos himself. He nodded and said, "Alright, your body isn't weak, but it's not exactly strong either. You definitely need some proper training."
He stepped forward and pinched the copper dragon's tail.
"The tail is one of the most commonly used weapons of dragons, so let's start here."
Feeling the tingling and numbness in her tail muscles, Deborah's silvery-white scales blushed slightly, and she let out a soft "hmm" in agreement.
after.
While training himself, Red Iron Dragon also guided Deborah, teaching her various moves that he was good at.
As time passed, the sun slowly rose into the sky and then gradually sank towards the horizon.
As dusk deepened, layers of sunset clouds burned like flames in the sky, bursting forth with dazzling and colorful light.
The Crimson Silver Dragon was completely limp, like a molten silver ingot.
She lay on the ground, feeling sore all over, and didn't even want to lift the tip of her tail.
Galos remains as vigorous and powerful as ever.
He not only has explosive power.
Their endurance and stamina far exceed those of normal teenage dragons.
Meanwhile, as the day passed, most of the wounds on Garos's body from the 'sparring' had healed.
Although it wasn't a serious condition to begin with, the fact that it recovered so well in just half a day is beyond what I've ever seen before.
"My recovery and regeneration speed has improved significantly."
Hong Tielong thought to himself.
Ultra-fast regeneration is a trait that Garus greatly desires. Only the thorns on his body can regenerate at an ultra-fast speed; if they break, they can recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The mere regeneration of thorns can cause considerable trouble for the enemy.
With his formidable physique, if he could combine it with super-fast regeneration throughout his body, he would reach a whole new level.
As for the method of adapting and evolving to achieve ultra-high-speed regeneration.
Theoretically, it's very simple—injury and recovery.
However, there are actually many more things to consider.
Minor injuries heal slowly, but if you inflict serious injuries just to adapt to evolution, and you don't even know how long it will take to successfully evolve, then you're in serious danger.
The risk is too high, and the losses outweigh the gains.
If he had powerful backers, he could give it a try, but Galos doesn't have a strong background. He needs to consider the risks before he acts and can't gamble everything.
"Moreover, my regeneration and recovery speed has been improving gradually."
"There's no need to rush or deliberately harm yourself."
"Ultra-fast regeneration may, like thorns, naturally adapt and evolve at a certain stage."
Galos thought to himself.
His strength comes from years of accumulation, not from something that happens overnight; he has always been very patient.
After a meal and a hearty drink of black oil, Red Iron Dragon continued his training under the cover of night.
Deborah had also eaten some food and was now curled up beside the rock wall. Her silvery-white chest and abdomen rose and fell slightly with her breath, and her dragon eyes reflected the red iron dragon's leaping figure in the moonlight, revealing a trace of admiration in her eyes.
She had only seen Galos train every day before, and she didn't think it was difficult at all.
But now that she's tried it herself, she realizes how difficult it is to persevere day and night like that.
Those indestructible scales, those steel-like muscles, that powerful and mighty physique were all forged and honed by him bit by bit, rather than relying entirely on talent.
He deserves his talent and his strength.
Galos was unaware of the Crimson Silver Dragon's thoughts.
If they knew, they would probably wholeheartedly agree, saying, "That's right! He got to where he is today entirely through his own hard work and diligence. Even though he's a white dragon, he's no less capable than any other dragon."
At this moment, moonlight poured down like liquid silver onto the rock walls of Dragon Valley, and Garos slowly folded his dragon wings, ending his long-lasting tempering.
At this moment, all was quiet.
This is the perfect time to think about and plan for the future.
After awakening from his slumber, he contacted Nick and learned of the fall of Saint King Lorthene and the undercurrents within the Federation.
Now that I think about it carefully, if the Lorthern Federation were to fall into internal strife, it would be a golden opportunity for him to rise to power. He must seize this opportunity, as the potential gains would far outweigh the risks.
"The Federation is like the Sighing Wall that stands on the border of the Serian Wilderness, a colossal behemoth that even ancient dragons would deliberately detour around when they flap their wings."
"Its existence has always weighed on me like a mountain, making me uneasy and fearful day and night."
Red Iron Dragon's eyes flickered as he pondered.
The Lorthen Federation, which always hangs like the Sword of Damocles over their heads, has kept countless beings like Garros awake at night, unable to eat or sleep, to the point that they have to consider the Federation's reaction before doing anything, and are full of concerns.
Galos has always lacked a sense of security.
The Lorthen Federation was a major source of his inner unease.
They were forced to retreat to the border area because they feared the Federation, not because of the foolish human viscount.
If the Lorthern Federation remains a monolithic entity...
Once Galus has exhausted the resources of the border region, he will consider leaving this place and finding a safer place to develop and grow.
But things are different now.
With the fall of the holy king, chaos began to emerge.
When the Federation begins to split, among those powerful figures busy vying for the throne, who will notice the rapid rise of a certain red iron dragon?
Galos pondered silently, his thoughts becoming increasingly clear.
Take control of the border areas as soon as possible, integrate resources and accumulate strength, build a strong and well-equipped army, and then wait for the collapse of the empire.
