Chapter 422: Choice
Dragons are proud.
However, dragons do not fail to make contracts with worldly creatures.
That's the partnership contract.
The Dragon's Companion Contract is a unique contract with a duration of 500 years, which can share a certain amount of dragon bloodline power to the person who signs the contract, and at the same time accelerate the growth rate of the dragon itself.
The downside is that the dragon's lifespan is depleted twice as fast during the Companion Contract.
Generally speaking, dragon companion contracts are mostly found between juvenile and adolescence, and end when they reach adulthood.
The dragon's juvenile and adolescent years add up to nearly one hundred and fifty years.
However, if a partnership contract is signed, this speed is greatly reduced.
The magnitude of the reduction is related to the growth rate and talent of the contract object, and it is said that it can be increased by more than ten times at the earliest.
Historically, some dragons have chosen gifted humans to make contracts until they die.
Humans have a short lifespan.
If you don't become a demigod, even if you are a legend, you can only live for 300 years at most.
The dragon only needs to pay an extra hundred years, which is a maximum of three hundred years of life, to compress thousands of years of growth into a hundred years.
It's appealing for some dragons looking to be strong quickly.
After digging out the relevant information from the inheritance of the World Tree, Eve also instantly understood the intention of the Platinum Dragon King.
This guy ...... It is worthy of the old dragon god who has lived for thousands of years!
I'm afraid that his proposal is not only to release goodwill to Eve and provide assistance to Eve, but also to use Eve's players to make these blood-purifying dragons grow up quickly!
Perhaps in normal times, the dragons can slow down their growth.
However, the magic of the world of Saiggs will increase, the balance will be broken, and the whole world will fall into chaos unseen in a thousand years.
At this time...... Strength is very important.
If they don't have enough strength, these dragons who purify their bloodlines may be difficult to protect themselves, and they can easily be captured by some powerful beings and used as slaves or food.
Dragons raise their offspring, but they are all free-range.
As soon as the baby dragons learn to fly and hunt, they are driven out of their nests by their mothers.
Like Reinhardt, who likes to take care of children, is strange among dragons.
In other words, Reinhardt intends to use the hand of the Chosen One to get players to help the dragons take care of their children.
And Eve can completely conclude that Reinhardt may also see the player's potential.
After all, they were all created by Eve based on the primordial elves, and each of them had genius-level talents.
And the ability of war sacrifice also allows players to advance quickly, and it can also make the growth of dragon companions more beneficial.
The Platinum Dragon King's proposal kills two birds with one stone.
Eve sighed slightly.
Acceptable?
Of course you accept!
Even, in order to get Eve's consent, the dragon god even promised not to interfere with the beliefs of these little dragons!
In other words, Eve can fool them into becoming her own believers!
Eve can understand this.
Dragons don't value faith much in the first place.
For them, faith is a little bit of faith that they don't want money anyway.
The same goes for the dragon god.
Most of them don't care about believers, they only care about shining treasures.
Of course, for many true gods, the dragons they get their hands on usually end badly.
Not...... The main thing is that the status is relatively miserable.
It is used as a pet, or to watch the gate or something.
However, the reason why Reinhardt dared to make this promise was probably because he saw the free black dragon Merrell.
Thinking of this, Eve raised her head and looked at the Platinum Dragon King.
The other party smiled at her, and then his expression became solemn and serious:
"It's all worth it for the sake of continuing the dragon population."
Perpetuating the race?
Hearing his words, Eve sighed slightly in her heart.
After Reinhardt finished speaking, he looked at Eve again, his eyes bright:
"And, too, I believe in your character, Your Majesty the Goddess of Life."
Eve:......
She looked up and looked into the eyes of the Platinum Dragon King.
Those amber pupils were full of sincerity and friendliness.
After a moment of silence, Eve smiled lightly:
"So...... I wish us a happy cooperation. ”
Seeing that Eve agreed, Reinhardt's smile grew even brighter......
After the discussion, the two true gods soon officially signed the oath of the true gods.
Reinhardt returned the fragment of the Scepter of Life to Eve, who agreed to the other party's terms.
However, Eve also said that she could not guarantee that the little dragon who became the partner of the Chosen One would not die halfway.
In this regard, the platinum dragon king also expressed his understanding:
"Of course, for every dragon, there are risks associated with growth, especially those who want to be truly powerful!"
His tone was very proud.
The dragon clan will always be a proud race that respects the strong and admires greatness.
Growth often comes at a cost.
And after the oath, the Platinum Dragon King chose to leave.
However, before parting, he smiled at Eve again, and then solemnly reminded:
"Eve's Crown......"
"Since you have become a god and your name has resounded on the mainland, then...... Presumably, the gods of the Pantheon will soon send messengers to invite you to leave your mark in the Pantheon. ”
"For the gods, the Pantheon is indeed an excellent platform to unite the forces of mythology, and almost all the true gods have their seats there, including me."
"However, for some reason, the gods of the Celestial Realm who currently preside over the Pantheon are deeply wary of your family race, the Elves, and the origin of your priesthood......"
"So, I hope you are mentally prepared to be targeted in advance."
Listening to the Platinum Dragon King's advice, Eve looked solemn.
She bowed slightly to Reinhardt and said:
"I see, thanks for the reminder."
Reinhardt nodded slightly:
"Then, in half a month, I will send an envoy from the dragon clan to send the first batch of dragon species to purify the bloodline."
When he finished speaking, he greeted him slightly.
Then, Reinhardt, the platinum dragon king, turned into a silver light and disappeared from Eve's vision.
Eve, on the other hand, put away the fragments of the scepter of life, which were still shining, and gradually blurred, and finally merged into the heavens and the earth.
……
The edge of the Elven Forest.
Silver light flickered, and a slender figure appeared.
Beautiful silver hair, mercury eyes.
It was none other than Reinhardt, the platinum dragon king who had taken on the form of a human.
He turned his head, took a deep look at the Elven Forest, and sighed softly:
"The gears of history are finally turning again, and all myths have to make a choice."
"Whether to destroy in the struggle or to be reborn in the midst of destruction, there is only one result......"
"What I can do, I've done."
With a deep sigh, his body flashed again, and then his form disappeared completely.
