CHAPTER XXVIII
"Headmaster...... Is this kid really good?" Looking around in fright, Ena looked at the principal suspiciously.
"I don't think it's a bit embarrassing*, forget it, he's a reserve player anyway, and he can get out of here at any time......" The principal stroked his beard and nodded in agreement and squinted at me.
"Hey, you two decide what to do there, I didn't say I would definitely participate!" Hmph, it's time to have enough, Uncle Ben doesn't have the spare time to play with you. I picked up my sword, wiped my blood off it, inserted it into its scabbard, and grinned toothily at the four cute little ones who had come together to watch me from afar, and the ones immediately turned around in panic and ducked behind a herbivorous dragon, peeking at me from under the herbivorous dragon's legs......
That's when I remembered a question I hadn't asked all along. What kind of dragon is this Ena, how can it still speak, and it looks like it has the ability to heal...... Oh my God, is this a dragon?
So I approached the principal and whispered in his ear, "What kind of dragon is that Eina, and can it see through people's hearts......
"She......" said the headmaster, blinking mysteriously at me, "it's rude to talk about her kind in front of a proud lady, but I can tell you that she can't read your mind, but even if you are wearing a mask, the expression on your face is clear......"
"......" I was speechless, and glanced at the principal, but suddenly another question came to mind, "Principal, what about the parents of the four little ones?"
The headmaster frowned when he heard this, and did not answer me immediately, but shook his head slightly and pondered.
I looked at Ena strangely and said, "Headmaster, what's wrong with him? It's not like I'm going to act again......
Ena gave me a blank look, turned her head to look away and said, "Hmph, I don't bother to pay attention to someone who is rude to me." ”
Damn, what are you dragging on?! Isn't it a little higher than the other dragons?!My heart was on fire, and I shook my head and looked at the dragon with contempt, and decided not to talk to it again.
At this moment, the principal suddenly opened his mouth leisurely: "Leng Yu, those blue-winged bat dragons you saw just now, they are what I called the army." And their duty is to protect the blue-winged swordback. Nature is cyclical, and a Blue-winged Stegosaurus must provide its venom to the Blue-winged Stegosaurus for consumption, while the Blue-winged Bat Dragon must protect the Blue-winged Stegosaurus, and that's the relationship between the two. It's like the relationship between the host and the parasite, the venom secreted by the blue-winged stegosaurus contains an ingredient that is necessary for the growth of the blue-winged batsaurus, which we call the growth enzyme, and the amount of venom in a year is enough for 20,000 blue-winged batsaurs to grow. Therefore, there are as many blue-winged stegosaurs as there are 20,000 times their number, but the wild blue-winged stegosaurus cannot control the number of batsaurs, because the bat dragons will control the number of blue-winged stegosaurs according to the amount of venom of the blue-winged stegosaurus. ”
Hearing the principal's explanation, I nodded knowingly and said, "Indeed, it seems that the death of those two blue-winged swordback dragons is because the number of bat dragons is out of control, breaking the ecological balance here." ”
"Hehe, boy, you reacted quite quickly," the principal looked at me with relief, and said with a grin, his frown stretched, "Actually, it was because of the birth of these four little ones that their parents were ...... Hehe, no way, I've been with these blue-winged swordback dragons for a long time, and I'm a little reluctant to let them go, but think about it, this is their own chosen lifestyle, and I can't interfere with it. ”
"Don't be sad, although Sartre and Thea are gone, these four little ones are still there. I'm their guardian, aren't you at ease?" Ena walked over and gently rubbed the headmaster's arm with her mouth, comforting him softly.
"Yes, I'm really relieved to have you there...... Oh, by the way, Leng Yu, I called you here today, not only for the reserves of the Riherd Clan, but also for one more thing, I want you to take a look at it, and prepare you mentally for the battle with the people of the Dragoon rank in the future......"
A long silence ensued...... I stared blankly at the principal, who looked back at me expectantly......
By the way, Syracuse Day is a dragoon, so can't I take the opportunity to learn about his true strength?
"It's not a good place to fight, come with us, and let me take you to an open place. The headmaster seemed to read my thoughts in my eyes, smiled at me, and turned to lead Ena towards the woods behind the hill.
Walking into the dark woods again, I followed behind the headmaster and Ena, and asked the headmaster curiously, "Headmaster, did Sartre and Thea commit suicide?"
"Well, they're suicidal. ”
"Huh, how do they know that the balance is broken, and why do they have to kill themselves?" I wondered even more.
Ena turned her head to look at me and smiled bitterly and said, "This is probably the fate that a king should bear." ”
I nodded and fell silent. As far back as I can remember, I have heard Master say something similar.
"Rights and duties are mutual, and the more rights you acquire, the more obligations you have to carry. It's a pity that most of the monarchs don't understand this truth, so they often make the people miserable, and wars break out. ”
What I don't understand is that Master always likes to talk to me about some issues such as governing the country, democracy, and other social, philosophical, and other nonsense, and every time he talks about these things, he always starts with a burst of saliva with his eyebrows fluttering, and then sighs with a sad face, and finally starts to be silent. I remember once I squatted with him to solve the problem, and somehow I talked to him about this topic again, after the big solution, while he was in a daze, and there was no chance to provoke a second wave of conversation, I ran away with my pants. As a result, I didn't see Master come back that night, and when I went up to the hut the next morning, I found that he was still squatting there in a daze!
The headmaster led me through the woods, and as I watched the light grow in front of me, I couldn't help but quicken my pace to see what the scenery was like outside. Could it be a vast prairie, or a frozen silver earth with no end in sight?
As soon as I walked out of the woods, a dazzling sunlight made me unable to open my eyes, and after a long time, I slowly adapted to it, but I was surprised to find that a boundless desert suddenly fell in front of me. Countless sand dunes gently undulated, and the golden sand with a death color reflected the harsh sunlight, making the whole world suddenly seem extremely lonely and terrifying. A gust of wind with dry sand howled in front of me made my whole body and lungs feel an unbearable heat at once. I squinted my eyes and turned my face sideways to avoid the gravel, but my foot sank into the soft sand, and I frowned in pain as I felt the hot sand slip unceremoniously down my foot into my shoe. Alas, it seems that I have to clean my shoes and feet before going back to the dormitory tonight, otherwise Ah Bing will think that there has been a sandstorm in the bedroom all night when I wake up tomorrow morning......
"Wow, did you know that there was a sandstorm last night? And only our bedroom was scraped! There was no sand outside! Alas, it seems that the dormitory without money is not inhabitable......"
Imagining Ah Bing's grief as he stared at his eyes and screamed, I almost couldn't help laughing......
"Are you surprised, are you wondering how there is a desert here?" the headmaster's voice suddenly interrupted my fantasy. I nodded awkwardly, only to find that the principal seemed to like to see me surprised. Hmph, this old fellow, what's so proud? Isn't it just a bare desert?
After walking for about a quarter of an hour into the desert, the headmaster stopped, turned to look at me with a smile.
"Before we start, I want to ask you a question, Leng Yu, who is your master?"
"My master?" I didn't know why the headmaster was asking me this question, so I scratched my head and thought for a moment and said, "Uh...... He never told me his name, he just told me to call him Master......"
"Oh, that's right......" The headmaster looked at Ena suspiciously, but Ena shook her head at him, then turned to look at me and said, "How old is your master?"
"Dragons, my master has never raised dragons...... He looked like he was fifty or sixty years old, but he was in good spirits, like an old man in his twenties and thirties. I frowned and imagined Master's appearance, and if he heard me describe him like this, he would be so angry that he would shout: "O thinner, are you tired of living?!"
The headmaster suddenly burst out laughing, shook his head and said to Ena, "Hahahaha, old and immortal? After laughing for a while, the principal stopped and asked me in surprise, "Didn't your master mention to you that you have a senior brother?"
I shook my head suspiciously, and asked, "Headmaster, do you know my master? Do you know his name? Also, how can I have a senior brother? I have never heard my master mention it......
"Hehe, I know him, but since he didn't tell you these things, I don't think I can tell you either. Okay, okay, gossip, let's get started. ”
I shrugged helplessly. It seems that the principal really didn't want to tell me, but to be honest, I never thought to ask Master what his name was, as if I never thought that he would suddenly leave me one day......
"Leng Yu, you step back ten meters first. ”
I stepped back as I was told, only to see Ena slowly walking between the principal and me, smiling at me charmingly. Well, Ena really looks good when she laughs, but then again, why haven't I seen any other animal laugh? I've seen a lot of dragons look in pain, and when they look at me on the ground, they all look like they grinning in horror, and hey, if they laugh too, how nice it would be......
Just as I was thinking wildly, I heard a loud "boom", and suddenly a yellow whirlwind with a height of more than ten meters blew from the place where Ena was standing! And Ena was instantly enveloped in the yellow sand that was swept up by the whirlwind. The whirlwind swirled violently, bringing up a powerful air current, causing the surrounding sand and gravel to fly all over the sky, and the whole sky became bleak. I closed my eyes tightly, put my hands in front of me, and felt countless tiny pieces of sand flying towards me in the "whirring" wind, hitting my face in pain. Is this the strength of the Dragoon? I don't think it's a big deal......
The whirlwind came suddenly, and it stopped even more suddenly. I was about to turn my back to fear that the sand would blow into the collar of my clothes, but the sound of the wind stopped in an instant, and I immediately felt the yellow sand in the sky suddenly fall straight down, spilling all over my head and face. I spat out the sand in my mouth, and after slapping the sand off my head and body, I found myself standing in a huge shadow, raised my head and looked ahead, oh my God! I don't know when, a huge white dragon more than 20 meters long has been prostrate in front of me! The dazzling light reflected by the snowy scale armor made me have to squint my eyes to see its whole picture, and I was amazed that in addition to its strong hind legs and small front paws, it also had a pair of huge white scales on its back! And it actually has two extremely sharp snow-white horns on its forehead!
I looked up at it in a daze, forgetting to draw my sword or turn to run away, only to find that it was smiling at me with its head down, just like Ena just now.
"Ena?" I cried out in disbelief.
"Yes, it's me, it's my fighting form. Didn't your master tell you that dragon riders above the Purple Emblem level can transform their dragons?" Ena looked at me amusedly, and opened her mouth slightly, allowing me to see a row of Bai Sensen's sharp fangs.
I shook my head, looked at the principal with my mouth wide open, and said, "Oh my God, can the dragons of the dragoons become so big?" Well, according to this ratio, if the headmaster started with a giant carnivorous dragon, then wouldn't its combat form be a mountain of meat?!
"Not necessarily, it depends on how he fights the enemy. The headmaster admired my stunned expression with satisfaction, stroked his slender white beard and said, "Moreover, whether it can be transformed or not depends on the dragon." So far in this world, we have only found fifteen dragons that can transform under the control of our minds, and they are divided into three levels. The first level of dragons has only two forms, that is, normal type and combat type, and there are six types of dragons of this level, namely Speedhorn, Stegosaurus, Blood Pterodactyl, Speartail Dragon, Ice Step Dragon and Cloud Pterodactyl. The second-level dragon has three forms, in addition to the first two, there are also magic forms, there are five dragons of this level, among which the fantasy ice walking dragon and the blazing feather cloud wing dragon are the special cases of the two dragons of the ice walking dragon and the cloud wing dragon respectively, just like the genius we commonly call it, and the other two are the blue winged swordback dragon and the amputated ear dragon, but because of the special living habits and high danger of these two dragons, no one uses them, and there is the blue-fin dragon, which lives in the ocean, and it is conceivable that it cannot be used on land. The third-level dragons also have only three forms, but their ordinary form can have special abilities, and this ability is generated according to the master's ability, such as Ena, she has the ability to heal, and Maykel's Daredevil Dragon, whose ordinary form has the ability to be invisible, I heard that there are two other dragons that are the third level, but I don't know what kind of dragons those two are. In fact, there is a strong law in this, the higher the IQ of the dragon, the more forms it has, you see, Ena is quite smart. ”
I looked up at Ena, and hurriedly nodded in agreement: "Indeed, Ena is even smarter than a human!" Fortunately, I didn't use my strength when I stuck its neck just now, otherwise if it wants to take revenge now, the consequences will be unimaginable, and it is better to quickly pat it more and coax it more!
"Headmaster, if you can transform as long as you have a high IQ, you should be able to transform the leopard dragon, but why didn't you mention them?" I suddenly remembered the story that Syracuse told me, and I couldn't help but ask.
"Ahem...... Speaking of which, if it weren't for the appearance of the gold and silver leopard dragons, I really didn't know that there were such dragons in this world, and it is said that they are extinct, so we can't know if they have the ability to shape. When the headmaster answered me, his eyes looked away, and I felt as if he was hiding something from me. Hey, forget it, I've never had the habit of being strong, and since the principal doesn't want to say it, I won't ask.
"Oh, by the way, don't go out and talk nonsense about what I just said to you. ”
"Why?" I blinked, don't many people know about these things?
"Hey, in fact, these are highly military secrets, except for the dragoons, only a few masters like the bat demon Terdika know about it. Because of the fear that the people would hunt or raise these terrifying dragons in large numbers out of curiosity or other purposes, these news had to be blocked from the outside world. I don't think your master told you these things, probably because he was afraid that you would catch these dragons out of curiosity. The headmaster looked up at Ena and sighed, "Actually, the breeding of first-level dragons is already very problematic, let alone second- and third-level dragons. The stegosaurus you killed last time, when it was first captured, it almost starved to death because it refused to eat, and later found out that it only ate living creatures, and when it finally negotiated a price with the dragoon and was about to sell it, it was cut down by your boy's sword, which really hurts my heart!" The headmaster shook his head in embarrassment, looking at me with resentment in his eyes. I looked down in embarrassment, only to realize that the part below my knee had already been buried deep in the sand......
"You must know that once the dragon of the dragon is transformed, its mental state will be closely linked to the owner, and it can be controlled by the owner without implanting any electrocrystals. The energy of their transformation comes from their masters, so their strength is also closely related to the master's skills. Most of the dragon riders are masters of cultivating true qi and magic, and the energy of the dragon's battle form is the energy from the master's true qi, and the energy of the magic form is the energy from the master's magic. My True Qi can't be compared to my magical energy, so Ena's combat form lacks the ability to attack from a distance. The transformed dragon has several times its maximum combat ability than the dragoon general, which is like ...... Well, it's like you may have countless gold coins, but you only have a small amount of gold coins on you at a time, but you can't bring them all out, because your own loading capacity is limited, beyond this limit, you may not even be able to walk, while dragons can greatly increase the upper limit of energy use, which is why dragon riders like to use transformed dragons to fight. However, you don't have to worry too much, people who have a transforming dragon know that once they take the lead in using it to fight, it will inevitably attract stronger retaliation, just like the human nuclear weapons use convention 20,000 years ago, hahaha......"
"Then what's the use of showing me this, headmaster. I glared at the principal, "There's no way I'm going to run into them......"
"I used to promise that no one would dare to use it for terrorist purposes, but I won't dare to say anything about it in the future. The last time that kind of bat, it was obviously a variant of the bat dragon that someone cultivated in order to raise the blue-winged swordback dragon, although the attack power is much worse than the bat dragon, but it is easy to carry out mind control. It can be inferred from this that the last terrorist activity is likely to be a good thing done by the Holy Dragon Alliance. What I'm most afraid of now is that someone will use the Blue Winged Swordback Dragon to fight, of course, it is not very possible to directly use the Blue Winged Swordback Dragon's combat form to fight, but if there are some crazy madmen who have the idea of burning jade, then they have to take precautions in advance......"
My hairs stood on end, and I was about to ask what the battle form of the Blue-winged Swordback Dragon looked like, but the headmaster suddenly stopped, looked down at the sand dunes in front of him, and said softly, "It's finally here." ”
"Ahh
"Leng Yu! Jump!" the headmaster suddenly shouted at me.
Nonsense! Of course I want to jump! But how can you make me jump?! At this moment, I couldn't care about replying, so I could only press my hands desperately on the sand, and the real qi in my abdomen was violently lifted upward, and then I reluctantly pulled my legs out of the sand.
"Jump! It's coming out!"
I wondered what was going to come out, was there something under the sand?
"What are you going to do!" I shouted at the headmaster as I sat on the ground and slapped the dust on my pants.
The headmaster didn't answer me, but he saw that Ena suddenly raised her upper half of her height, and then with a sharp flick of her wings, a huge wind carrying countless clouds of sand and gravel swooped down on me, and rolled me backwards. I braced myself up, only to find that Ena had leapt into the air, flapping her huge wings and staying at a height of ten meters, but dragging the slender tip of her tail to the ground. At this time, the sand dunes on the ground suddenly splashed like a boulder smashing into the water, and watching the mountain-like sand waves "whoop" towards me, I was frightened with both hands and feet, and quickly retreated, avoiding the danger of being buried by the sand waves, but I was almost blinded by the yellow sand in the sky. At this moment, Ena's body also began to climb rapidly and straight, as if something below was chasing it, and I looked at it, only to feel a sudden shock all over my body, and I almost fell to the ground in fright......
In a loud bang, I saw an incomparably large eyeless monitor lizard head with horned wings biting at Ena in the air with its bloody mouth open, and under that huge head, there was actually a snake-shaped body with a diameter of four or five meters and as thick as half a classroom! Compared to it, Ena, who was still huge just now, looked like a white pigeon being chased by a python at this moment! Such a terrifying thing can actually hide its body underground, and it can accurately judge Ena's position! If I hadn't been fanned out by Ena just now, I guess I would have fallen into its mouth by now!
Oh my God, before it could ignore me, run away! I shuddered, almost weakened, and suckled to my feet, and then turned and ran for my life towards the distant woods.
Suddenly, I heard an incomparably terrifying huge roar in the distance behind me, like a wolf's howl, but much rougher and duller than that, and it pierced far through the entire magical space, and then gradually heard a huge echo from the extreme height of the sky......
I was so scared that even my heart was about to stop beating, I only knew that the whole body was full of luck, and I was running wildly, and I was still a few hundred meters away from rushing into the woods, but I suddenly felt that my left hand was tightly wrapped around a soft thing, and before I could break free, I was dragged backwards by the thing, I screamed "oops", I couldn't control the momentum of the forward rush, and the whole body was so embarrassed to throw up from the ground, and then "plopped" and fell to the ground on my back.
But I heard the headmaster say helplessly behind me: "Boy, I worked hard to recruit a sand lizard dragon to show you how capable the dragon rider is, you can run without looking at it, and you run so fast that you almost let you slip away......"
I grinned and sat up, flicking my left hand, only to find that the soft thing was the headmaster's robes.
"Headmaster, is that thing just to look at?!Besides, why didn't you tell me anything beforehand, if you had known that I would have come to see this kind of thing, and I wouldn't have come with you if I was killed!" I yelled indignantly, only to feel angry. What kind of bullshit principal is this, just now he lied to me that he was going to kidnap, and now he is lying to me to see such a terrifying big guy, he obviously wants me to have a myocardial infarction and die!
"Oops, I'm angry, hehe, I just asked you to jump and you didn't jump, and I had to wait for it to come out before I turned around and ran for my life, and I actually came to blame me......"
I turned around angrily and shouted at the principal, "Can I jump up just now?!" Half of my body is sunk in the sand...... Before I could finish shouting, I was speechless by the sight in the distance......
But I saw a snow-white figure, waving a pair of beautiful giant wings, dragging a giant snake dragon, flying high in the air, the sand lizard dragon was desperately twisting its body in the air, trying to use its own weight to let its neck break free from the clamp of the pair of claws. Isn't that snow-white figure Ena?!How did she drag such a behemoth out of the sand?! Oh my God, from a distance, it looks like a fist-sized sparrow dragging a ten-meter-long anaconda!
I looked at it, and suddenly I felt as if something was wrong, and I just wanted to turn around and run away, but the principal grabbed me by the shoulder and said, "You want to slip away again?"
"Spare me!" I cried out in horror, "how can you tell Ena to drag that guy this way?!" I writhed desperately trying to break free of the principal's big hand, like the sand lizard dragon trying to break free of Ena's powerful claws.
"Don't worry, it won't drag that thing too close, it's just that I want you to see a little more clearly how powerful Ena's magical form will be......" The Headmaster let go of his hand and patted me on the shoulder comfortingly. Sure enough, Ena gradually stopped flying, but tried to fly straight up. The sand lizard dragon seemed to sense something terrifying, and began to roar desperately again.
Suddenly, I noticed that Eina's body suddenly burst into a colorful aura, and its wings gradually turned inky black, which formed a strong contrast with its snow-white body!
At this moment, the sand lizard dragon beneath it was enveloped in a huge black tornado in an instant, and then the dragon's terrible howl was faintly heard from the fierce tornado. I was stunned to look at Ena, who was surrounded by a colorful aura, and I just felt that the scene in front of me was as incredible as a dream.
After a full minute, the roaring tornado slowly stopped, but I saw that the sand lizard dragon hung its head in despair, and honestly stopped struggling, except for the "faint" moan, only a slight twitch remained. The scale armor covering its body had been torn apart by the tornado just now, and scarlet liquid oozed from all over its body, making it look like a fat blood sausage.
At this moment, Ena suddenly hissed up to the sky, a huge hissing sound was deafening, and the aura around it began to change and rotate, and the pair of inky black wings gradually turned bright yellow again!
Before I could react, a huge shining thunderbolt with a terrifying thunderclap suddenly fell from the sky and struck Ena like a dazzling whip. I was about to scream, but I found that Ena was still intact and continued to wave her wings, while the sand lizard dragon beneath it was instantly covered in countless shining electric sparks, which made the dragon hiss and tremble for a long time before it stopped, not moving. Gradually, an unpleasant scorching smell came to my nose.
"Headmaster, does this sand lizard dragon have a grudge against you?" I looked at the poor worm that had been imposing a moment ago, but now looked like a dead snake, and squinted at the headmaster suspiciously, only to see that he was holding his hand over his nose to block the foul smell of scorching.
"Don't worry, I'll let Ena cure it, the sand lizard dragon has a violent temperament, and often likes to raid travelers in the desert, last time two of my Rich's students almost died because of it, but fortunately Ena arrived in time to get out of danger, today I just want to teach it a lesson, by the way, let you know this common sense, lest you slip away immediately in fright." After making my face red with ridicule, the headmaster waved at Ena, and Ena slowly fell down and lowered the dragon to the ground, and the brilliant five-colored aura on her body slowly disappeared. At the moment when the aura around Ena completely disappeared, a dazzling white light suddenly flashed from it, like a fluorescent lamp of several thousand watts, making it impossible to look at it directly. The light became stronger and stronger, and gradually seemed to turn into a small sun, and the dragon's body slowly began to emit a strong white light, and from a distance it looked like a brilliant silver giant snake, reflecting the brilliance of the sun. After a while, the white light gradually dimmed, and I was surprised to find that the sand lizard dragon, which was supposed to be scarred and skinless, now had crimson scale armor all around its body! Looking at everything in front of me, I couldn't find any other expression to express the surprise in my heart except for shaking my head and sighing incessantly......
"Before it wakes up, let's get out of here. The headmaster patted me on the shoulder, waved at Ena again, and then turned back and walked towards the woods, saying as he went, "The last thing of the day is to teach you two super tricks to defeat the enemy!"
By the time I left Professor Bingke's office, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and I hurried to the hotel, hoping that the boss would be able to count the money for me when I arrived now...... As I ran, my mind kept replaying the two "super tricks" that the principal explained to me before leaving. The principal also said......
"I've heard you're pretty good-looking, but why do you always wear a mask?......
"Okay, okay, I won't ask if I don't want to tell me, but Ena is very curious about your true appearance, it's rare that a white holy dragon is interested in you, can't you not fulfill our wishes?......"
"Ahem, don't be angry, just don't say anything, but I appreciate that your mask can help you hide your identity. I'll use this to help you cover your true identity while you act......"
"I've said so much, and it's been a long time! You're just telling me now that you don't want to participate?! Do you know how many people want to be in Rich's, and I didn't let them in......"
"Otherwise, act once, regardless of success or failure, and the prize is one hundred silver Luke......"
"Hehe, young man, this is like a good boy with big ambitions, in fact, as long as you enter the Richhouse, money is not a problem at all...... Well, why did you want you to join Richfield? Well, don't you understand? Last time you fought off Arankite, I wanted you to join, we Richfield need talent like you. In fact, you are very strong now, and it is impossible for the sand lizard dragon just now to hurt you, but what you lack most now is self-confidence......"
"Oh, by the way, remember to do it later, don't wear a mask when you act, so I can make sure that your identity is hidden...... Also, I will send someone to contact you when you act, and the code is: Disciples of Heech ......"
