As the dragon left, the place became quiet.
"Is the master okay?"
Mikan was a little worried. It would be extremely dangerous to force his way onto the dragon's back.
Although in the later stages, the knight can fly for a short period of time, but that is something that can only be done when he reaches the Silver Moon level. Roning does not have such strength now.
If you fall from a height, it will be very bad.
Rydar frowned, feeling very worried.
"The Lord's action this time is a bit risky, but he should have a corresponding plan. All we can do is trust him."
Elrond murmured softly, "May the God of Light protect you, my lord!"
While they were talking, Kurami and the others who were hiding in the cave came out tremblingly.
The fire brought by the dragon's breath in the valley has been extinguished, but the air is filled with the smell of burning, which is very unpleasant.
“I didn’t expect we would survive!”
Jenny looked at her husband, Horn held her hand tightly, and both of them had joy in their eyes after surviving the disaster.
Other people basically feel the same way.
Carlos's hideous head really left a huge shadow in their hearts, and they would probably have nightmares about it for some time to come.
"Commander, where is Lord Ronin?"
Tom glanced around and saw that only Rydar, Macon, Elrond and Joffrey were standing outside, but there was no sign of Rhonin.
Others also noticed this problem and looked at Ridar nervously.
The Lord should be alright, right? "The Lord is preparing to conquer the dragon, and is riding on its back towards the north."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
For them, it takes great courage just to stand in front of the dragon, let alone climb onto its back.
The Lord not only did this, but even wanted to conquer the dragon? They looked up at the sky. How dare the Lord...
"Macken, Elrond, you lead the team and stay here. You need to monitor this cave until the adults and I return, but remember not to enter rashly."
No one can be sure whether there are other enemies in the cave. To be on the safe side, it is better to wait for Roning to come back before making the next plan.
"I'll go to the north and see if I can find the adults."
The giant dragons were flying very fast and disappeared right after they rushed into the sky, but the faint roars seemed to indicate that they were in the north.
Although everyone was worried about the lord's situation, they could not do anything to help. They could only stay here to guard the cave entrance and pray silently that the lord would return safely.
…
Ronin was listening to Carlos telling his story on the north beach.
If I were to use one word to describe its life as a dragon, it would be - miserable.
Carlos has been imprisoned in the cave since he hatched from his shell, and more than two hundred and eighty years have passed.
Over the past two hundred years, Natalia has been transmitting some kind of dark energy into its body through a dark altar, trying to transform its body.
To be honest, Ronin was stunned by its age.
He originally thought that this giant dragon was only a few dozen years old, but he didn't expect that it had lived for more than two hundred years.
What made Roning feel even more unbelievable were people like Natalia.
According to Carlos, it has been imprisoned by this group of people since it was born.
In other words, Natalia, Nebula and others are older than the dragon?
You know, even a Meteor-level star has a lifespan of no more than 120 to 130 years. Natalia is only a Silver-level star, how can she live for more than 200 years?
But when asked this question, Carlos couldn't explain it clearly.
As a prisoner, it has no way to learn much information.
Carlos only knew that Natalia and others had been doing the same thing almost every day over the years.
For example, they would offer sacrifices to it every morning, patrol outside every night, and so on, day after day for more than two hundred years.
The only difference may be that Natalia's mating partner will change, for example, today it is Nebular, tomorrow it is Utan, and the day after tomorrow it is another knight.
As for the master Elliot mentioned by the female knight, Carlos had never seen him in all these years, not even once.
After some communication, Ronin asked Carlos to take a break while he sat aside and thought.
More than two hundred years ago, the Orlant Empire had collapsed and the continent fell into decades of chaos.
During the hundreds of years of chaos, no one knew what had happened.
Even the history books of Wushan Fort only briefly recorded some deeds, so how could they record what happened in the north of Wubei Territory? Ronin guessed that perhaps this strange cave, Carlos, and even Natalia and others were left behind by a powerful person in that era.
It’s just that time is too long, and that strong man has forgotten this place, or has fallen?
Luo Ning couldn't figure out the reason, so he simply stopped thinking about it and focused his attention on the things at hand.
"Carlos, I give you a gift in return for your submission to me."
Perhaps it was because the contract scroll given as a login reward was different from Lulans's contract scroll, Ronin was able to summon Carlos's attribute panel just like he did with McKen and others: [Frostfire Wings·Carlos]: Level 5 (7349/7500) + Frostfire Wings is Carlos's title, and it is said that he has had it since he could remember.
Ronin was more concerned about its level and progress.
The fifth-level extraordinary humans are the Silver Knight and the Chief Magician. They only need 1,500 to 2,000 energy essence points to break through to the sixth level.
But Carlos, the giant dragon, actually needed 7,500 points to break through! No wonder it was only a level 5 monster in these two hundred years.
But it's reasonable if you think about it.
For a high-level dragon like Carlos, 300 years old is only the young dragon stage, and the level is around four to six.
It is quite remarkable that it has been able to grow to this level despite being imprisoned and abused.
If Carlos's level progress was very low, Roning might not choose to invest too much, but the other party was almost full, so he didn't mind helping him improve a little.
As Ronin invested his energy essence, the opponent's panel changed:
[Frostfire Wing·Carlos]: Level 6 (0/12500) + This number made Roning shudder with fear.
My goodness, to upgrade this giant dragon from level six to level seven, it actually requires tens of thousands of energy essences!
This is pure robbery!
Luo Ning looked at the remaining 1,449 energy essences in his hand and suddenly felt powerless.
On the other hand, Carlos opened his eyes wide, in a state of shock.
It was wondering at first, seeing that the owner had nothing in his hands, what kind of gift would he prepare?
Unexpectedly, a magical power descended upon it in the next moment, making it feel as refreshed as if a long drought had finally come. It couldn't help but let out a comfortable dragon roar.
"I... advanced?"
I saw that the edges of Carlos' scales turned red, no longer just ice blue; at the same time, new scales were growing under the old scales.
When the new scales have fully grown, the gaps between the scales will be greatly reduced, and it will become very difficult to insert weapons through the gaps.
“Pah~”
An old scale fell to the ground, followed by the second, the third...
Carlos shook, and hundreds of scales fell to the ground.
"What are you doing?"
"When my strength increases, some of the aged scales will fall off automatically, and new ones will grow in their place."
Carlos' voice became pious, "Thank you for the gift, Master!"
From level five to level six, even though the progress is only over a hundred points, if it were to break through on its own, it would take at least dozens or even hundreds of years.
But now, he broke through in a breath! Carlos was both stunned and surprised. Sure enough, this master was much better than Natalia.
Seeing this comparison, it couldn't help but feel moved, and all the conflicts and unpleasantness that had occurred before were diluted.
Although he is a dragon, he has been isolated from the world for so long that he still has a bit of a "child" mentality.
“This is good stuff!”
Luo Ning's eyes lit up, and he quickly walked over to pick up a piece of dragon scale and began to observe it.
The ice-blue dragon scales are smaller than a palm, but they are tougher than steel and have a certain resistance to magic.
"Dragon scale armor..."
If these dragon scales were made into armor, their defensive power and value would definitely be extraordinary! "Carlos, are these dragon scales still useful to you?"
Ronin said, "I want to use them to make a set of armor!"
"Feel free to use it, Master!"
To Carlos, the fallen dragon scales were only worth collecting, but facing the master who had helped him improve his strength, he was not stingy at all.
"The fallen dragon scales are of no value to me." (End of this chapter)
