Chapter 360: The Heart of the Silver Dragon Queen! Strong, Invincible, and Able to Eat

The north wind blows hard, and the biting snow and wind obscures the view.

In the boundless flying snow, the majestic red dragon flapped its wings, stirring up a howling wind, and slowly landed on the snowy plain in front of Ye Zhi.

Boom! The dragon claws sank deep into the snow, splashing snow mist.

The red dragon's hot breath made the snow in front of it melt with a hissing sound. Its pair of golden eyes had black pupils standing upright, revealing its pride and majesty.

When the Red Dragon's gaze was fixed on the crimson magic crystal that was emitting heat in Ye Zhi's palm, his breathing became noticeably heavier.

The magic crystal of the imperial-level magical beast Flame Scale Dragon Lizard is filled with fire elements and violent ancient magic. Although it cannot provide much help to an adult red dragon, the value it contains is qualified to enter the red dragon's eyes! "The great elder can't move when he sees the treasure."

Gray jumped lightly off the dragon's back and placed her hands on the red dragon's metallic scales.

"On the way to escort me back, the Great Elder changed his human form and went to the tomb to search for treasures. He also killed a lich who was practicing in the tomb."

Gray said with a smile: "We even got the lich's storage ring. It's a great harvest!"

Suddenly, the red dragon coughed dully and glanced at Gray with a majestic look.

As if to say.

Children, don’t tell others everything!

"This turns out to be a red dragon that can rob tombs!" Zuanya exclaimed.

Ye Zhi could understand Red Dragon's actions.

What is tomb robbing? That is to protect the treasures from being covered in dust and restore the value of antiques! There are three adult dragons in the Dragon Country.

Ye Zhi had already met Grey's third elder green dragon. She was an aggressive female dragon who would start a fight at the slightest disagreement.

The great elder, Hong Long, is a money-grubber.

Ye Zhi used the magic crystal of the Flame Scale Dragon Lizard as a gift, which was also to please the dragon and aim to make friends with it.

"I often hear Gray mention you, saying that you are not only a hero in the human kingdom, but also the only chosen one of the gods of art today..."

The red dragon's majestic eyes carefully examined Ye Zhi. After a while, they fell on the crystal in Ye Zhi's palm that was as clear as a ruby, and nodded:

"Well, it's really not bad!"

"Are you saying that Yeats is not bad, or that the gift is not bad..." Gray muttered softly.

Suddenly, a cold snort sounded directly in Gray's mind.

"Humph, in order to help you suppress the Silver Dragon Heart, I have no idea how many of my treasures I have used up. Now I am robbing everywhere, all for you!"

"Hehe, thank you, Great Elder. I knew you would be good to me~"

Gray's heart was touched, and she suddenly tilted her head and said jokingly:

"But, I remember that before you got the Silver Dragon Heart, you also searched everywhere?"

The Red Dragon raised his head proudly, indicating that he did not want to argue with Gray. He looked at Ye Zhi disdainfully and said calmly:

"My mission is complete, and it's time for me to leave. But you, please don't let Gray get involved in unnecessary danger."

These words were full of meaning. Ye Zhi stared at her reflection in the Red Dragon's deep eyes, and heard the Red Dragon slowly say, "She hasn't fully grown up yet. Gray's battle will eventually come, but not now..."

Got it, Gray is Charmander, the ultimate late-stage hero! Ye Zhi speculated that the red dragon more or less understood the feud between him and the Church.

On the one hand, the Great Elder did not want Grey to be an enemy of the Holy See, but on the other hand, the Great Elder respected Grey's wishes and personally sent her back to Morning Frost Ridge.

This is an era when the dragon clan does not fight with the world and lives in seclusion.

Adult dragons like the one before us are extremely rare.

In the old era, the Dragon Empire was more vast than the Human Empire. The dragons developed their own country and civilization, and once fought a war with humans, driving them to the border of the continent.

Afterwards, the God of Light and the Platinum Dragon King established a friendship. Both of them were gods who had shone for thousands of years. They fought a shocking battle, appreciated each other on the battlefield, and became close friends.

Since then, humans and dragons have reconciled their differences and their relationship has entered a honeymoon period.

However, all of this turned to ashes in the fire of Ragnarok after the God of Light was assassinated.

At the beginning of the new era, humans launched a massive dragon-slaying movement, and the heroes praised in the epics all had more or less dragon-slaying deeds. The conflict between dragons and humans was irreconcilable until the half-human, half-dragon Silver Dragon Queen ascended the throne and used her extraordinary means and personal charm to make the two races sign a peace agreement, humans and dragons did not offend each other, and the dragons retreated to the eastern mountains and no longer invaded the empire.

After the Silver Dragon Queen died for no apparent reason, a brutal war broke out again in the eastern part of the continent. The Holy See, supported by the Heaven, destroyed the kingdom of dragons in the name of holy war.

Strictly speaking, there is no longer any dragon country in this world. There are only solitary or group dragons scattered across the continent.

Because the Holy See once left a shadow on the dragon clan, Ye Zhi could understand why the Great Elder asked him meaningfully not to let Gray be involved in danger.

But this is not something you can decide...

Yeats sighed.

Fate is like a flood, constantly pushing humanity forward. The reason why we swim hard may not be to change anything, but just to avoid being swept away by fate.

"It's over now."

Ye Zhi pondered for a moment and smiled:

"Great Elder, why don't we take a break in the castle and taste some human delicacies?"

"No need."

The red dragon closed his eyelids and said indifferently and arrogantly: "I am not interested in human food."

Ye Zhi was startled. Why did these words sound so familiar?

"Try it, Great Elder!" Gray vowed, "Even the god chef in Valhalla can't compare to Ye Zhi in cooking skills!"

The divine chef of Valhalla possesses a sacred cauldron called 'Arenil'. The food he cooks has magical powers. Regardless of race or strength, everyone will experience the emotions of 'delicious' and 'satisfaction' because of this food magic that is close to the law.

The red dragon opened his closed eyelids again, and a hint of surprise flashed in his golden eyes with black pupils: "Such a high evaluation?"

"Absolutely true!"

The red dragon was silent for a moment, and the scales on its body glowed with the magical power of transformation.

A dignified man with a hood and a fiery red beard bent his five fingers slightly and used the object control technique to take the magic crystal in Ye Zhi's hand into his own hand.

The red-bearded man glanced at Ye Zhi and nodded in a low voice, saying, "I should not disturb other humans if I enter the castle in this form."

Ye Zhi smiled slightly and said, "Great Elder, do you have a human name? How should I call you?"

The names of the dragons are all based on dragon characters, which are difficult to pronounce, but most of them will give themselves human names. For example, the third elder of Grey's green dragon is named "Emerald".

"Just call me Redbeard."

The Red Dragon Elder stroked his fiery red beard and said proudly:

"Let me see just how amazing Gray's cooking skills really are!"

*Winterhold, Castle Hall.

The long table was covered with a linen tablecloth, and the sumptuous dishes glowed temptingly under the candlelight.

"Um... Gray, don't steal my lobster!"

Red Beard sat at a corner of the dining table, grabbing a shiny roasted quail in one hand and devouring it with relish. The golden and crispy skin sizzled, and with the other hand he picked up a lobster tail covered with butter sauce. The white jade-like lobster meat paired with the butter sauce had a sweet taste that one could imagine just by looking at it.

Phoenix-tailed quail and blue cavalry lobster are all precious ingredients on the lord's table. Cooked by professional gourmet chefs, they can bring out the unique flavor of the ingredients. In order to entertain the great elder, Ye Zhi personally cooked and brought out the gourmet skills that were enough to shake the goddess of the night.

This is exactly what drugging… (crossed out) the art of cooking!

"Your Excellency the Duke, please let me come."

The head maid, Delphinium, was standing nearby. Seeing Yeats personally carrying a pot of stew, she was frightened and immediately went forward, only to see Yeats shaking his head.

Who is the origin of this sloppy red-bearded man that he can make the Duke cook for him personally?

Delphinium was confused, but if she knew that there was a giant dragon sitting in front of her and that it was a member of the Duchess's family, she would feel relieved.

At Yeats's order, Delphinium led the other maids to leave the hall, leaving only Yeats, Grey and Redbeard to enjoy the banquet. A large table full of dishes, mushroom truffle cream soup, nutmeg baklava, and rosemary fried sturgeon, were eaten up by Redbeard and Grey at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

"I haven't had your cooking...for months..., Yeats!"

Gray looked at Yeats with tears in her eyes and said, "That's the taste!"

Ye Zhi burst out laughing and couldn't help but reach out and touch Grey's head, causing Grey to blush.

"In the past few months, Yeats has been cooking for other people."

The little squirrel stood on the dining table, chewing a walnut and trying to stir up the fire.

Facing Gray's confused look, Ye Zhi picked up the drill, put it on his shoulder, and said expressionlessly: "Your meal is gone, drill!"

Gray looked around at Diamond and Yeats, and suddenly realized:

"Drilltooth, are you talking about the Shadow Queen, Skaah? Yezhi has already told me that they are master and apprentice, and it is normal to respect the teacher!"

Ye Zhi coughed, not knowing why he felt a little nervous.

Looking at Gray's sunny smile, Ye Zhi also felt much calmer. The previous troubles caused by the civil war disappeared, and he couldn't help but smile.

Diamond looked between the two of them and sighed softly.

Dinner is gone and I failed to stir up the fire... Where can I get the food I need?

Never mind, dog food is still food, just eat it!

Yeats served a game stew made of venison, wild boar and rabbit. Carrots and onions added a richer flavor to the game, and pepper was a stroke of genius, making the delicious taste instantly stimulating! Red Beard held the whole pot of stew and gobbled it up until the bottom of the stew was gone. He also dipped the bread in the stew soup and sighed.

The dragon tribe has always eaten raw food and does not pay much attention to food culture.

The creativity of dwarves, elves, and orcs in food is far less imaginative than that of humans.

We have to admit that human food culture is indeed a great racial advantage.

Yeats's accomplishments in food and feasting were truly amazing! Finally, the banquet ended with drinks. Red Beard leaned back comfortably on his chair and performed a cleansing spell on himself. His dirty clothes and beard soon became brand new - this was also his transformed image, essentially using a cleansing spell on the dragon scales.

Picking up the mulled wine stewed with cinnamon, cloves and orange peel, Red Beard took a sip and said, "I have to take back what I said just now... This banquet is delicious!"

Gray nodded and agreed:

“So delicious that the snails could jump out of their shells!”

Ye Zhi: “…”

After not seeing each other for a few days, Gray's metaphors became more and more bizarre! Glancing at the bottom of the empty stew bowl, Red Beard reluctantly stretched out his finger, dipped it into the soup, licked it, and then restrained his expression, becoming a little serious.

"You should know that the reason why Gray returned to Dragon Country this time is because of the giant dragon heart in her body..."

Yeats nodded.

On the night of Walpurgis, the King of the Wild Hunt gave Gray a dragon heart to help her resist the side effects of the Silver Oak Sword so that she could bring the Silver Oak Sword to me.

But the energy of the dragon's heart was so abundant that Ye Zhi couldn't help but doubt the origin of the heart.

Red Beard said seriously:

"After the efforts of me and several other elders, we have figured out the origin of the dragon's heart... It is the heart of the Silver Dragon Queen."

Ye Zhi was suddenly startled.

It is indeed true! The heart of a dragon can be considered a magical organ.

The heart of the Silver Dragon Queen, who once ruled the Dragon Empire, can provide Gray with immeasurable magical power! For example, even a sanctuary-level mage must be careful when using magic power to avoid the embarrassing situation of running out of magic power.

But Gray has infinite mana, plus the great vitality provided by the Silver Dragon Heart, in addition to the infinite mana, she still has two lives! Ye Zhi couldn't help but look at Gray.

Gray was holding a piece of butter-baked potato with sour cream and onions in her hand, chewing it intently. She noticed the look in his eyes and looked back with an innocent look.

Strong, invincible, and able to eat.

"Why does the King of the Wild Hunt possess the heart of the Silver Dragon Queen? I will continue to investigate this with the elders of Grey."

Redbeard stroked his beard and frowned.

"And now, Gray has reached the critical period of breaking through the sixth ring. I should have let her break through the sixth ring before bringing her to see you, but her mind is all on you..."

Looking back at the dragonborn girl with mashed potatoes on the corners of her mouth, love and reluctance flashed in the red beard's eyes, and he sighed softly:

"Perhaps, being with you, her mind will be more focused, and she will be able to break through smoothly."

Ye Zhi nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of Gray and do my best to help her get promoted!"

Red Beard smiled slightly: "I believe in you, and I also believe in Gray..."

According to Red Beard, there are two hearts in Gray's body, driven by dual cores, which increases her combat power.

The amount of potion materials needed for advancement has also increased exponentially.

Although he looked stingy, Red Beard was quite generous to Grey. He said that he would continue to search for materials suitable for Grey and send them to Morning Frost Ridge after a while.

"The potion materials Gray needs for advancement, this is convenient..."

Ye Zhi thought to himself, "Ask the priests of the Sea God Temple if there are any suitable royal sea monsters, preferably with some dragon blood..."

Dragon turtle?

A magical beast that had dragon blood and met the requirements for sacrifice to the Messenger God emerged in Ye Zhi's mind.

I don't know what the tortoise jelly made from dragon tortoise would taste like...
