Chapter 449: The Promotion Ceremony Begins!
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
The crisp sound of water came immediately after the voice of the Dragon Elder.
Only this time it was much smaller than what I had heard at the entrance of the cave, and there was no longer the disturbing noise, and even the speed of movement with the ice floes under my feet began to slow down.
Everything in front of him suddenly became clear at this moment, and a faint blue light appeared, which would light up the surroundings that had dimmed as they continued to go deeper into the dragon's lair.
With this light, Aoyagi's eyes, which had not seen things for a while, regained focus.
The place he was in now seemed to be in a huge cavern, and the surrounding area was extremely empty, and even the space above his head was unusually large.
Based on the time it had taken to make the journey, and the area in front of him, Aoyagi was sure that he was now beneath the mountain.
But how did such a huge space come into being?
Aoyagi couldn't help but be a little curious.
Sirona next to her was also full of curiosity.
It was also her first time here, and her eyes kept looking around.
The ice floe, which slowed down under his feet, also gently hit the cave floor at the edge of the cave and stopped completely.
Until this moment, a group of people came to the center of this cave.
The expressions of the four of Elder Dragon, Granny Dragon, Adu, and Tsubaki quickly became extremely solemn, and then they all bowed forward and made extremely respectful gestures.
Such a gesture quickly caught the attention of Shirona, who was closest to them, and she followed suit.
But the next moment, her pupils dilated instantly.
"It's ...... What? ”
Sirona looked up in shock and looked overhead.
Aoyagi was attracted by her performance and looked up.
With just one glance, his eyes narrowed.
I saw that on the shore not far away, close to the edge of the cave, huge and hideous white bones broke through the constraints of the rocks and soil and extended outward, illuminated by the dark blue light around and the cold environment underground, as if they were skeletons and undead returning from hell.
The most frightening thing about the point is that the bones are not haphazardly distributed, but rather proportionally enlarged by the location of the bones of some kind of creature.
That is, these bones in front of you......
Aoyagi's eyes carefully looked around, up and down, left and right, and finally confirmed that this was indeed a bone left behind after the death of the Pokémon, and judging by the shape, it was likely to be the quasi-god of the Kanto region, the fast dragon.
The only difference is that this is a ...... Giant Dragon!
Looking at the skeleton in front of him, which was a few points larger than the battle tyrannosaurus beast that unlocked the data compression, Aoyagi couldn't help but wonder if this was a fast dragon in an extremely gigantic state that was buried here.
But......
The small blue words in front of me jumped again at this time.
[Exploration Progress: 98%...... 99%…… 99%……】
"I've checked all around, but I can only get to 99%, is there any inconspicuous corner missing?"
Aoyagi fell into deep thought.
After noticing Aoyagi's puzzled expression, Adu, who had already finished praying next to him, thought it was the same question as Sirona, so he took the initiative to introduce: "This is the remains of a giant fast dragon that the ancestors of the Dragon Clan discovered when they first explored the dragon's lair.
"Even now, I haven't figured out why it's so big.
"And because it has a deep relationship with the other dragon that exists in the dragon's den, and the long years have passed since the inheritance, over time, all the clansmen have regarded it as a deceased companion and the guardian saint of the dragon's den, and every time they pass by here, they will salute and salute, which can be regarded as a tradition."
Shirona nodded slightly when she heard this, and Aoyagi captured the key information in Adu's words.
"There's another dragon?"
Since he entered here just now, he hadn't seen any Pokémon exist, and even the panel hadn't detected any relevant information.
Now that the exploration progress is stuck at 99%, it is very likely that the remaining 1% is where the other dragon is hiding.
It's just that Aoyagi was a little surprised that after hearing his doubts to himself, Adu did not reply, but fell into a moment of hesitation, and Xiao Tsubaki next to him also had the same expression.
This couldn't help but make Aoyagi a little curious.
However, this curiosity did not last long, and was interrupted by the Dragon Elder and the Dragon Granny who were in front of the ice floe.
"Now that you've arrived at the place, let's hurry up and go."
The two of them showed the opposite of their age, and their bodies jumped up, jumping from the ice floe to the shore at once, Ado and Tsubaki glanced at each other and showed a slightly embarrassed smile towards Aoyagi, and quickly followed.
"It seems that this question is a bit inconvenient to tell outsiders."
Shirona whispered.
"It's me who is abrupt."
Aoyagi didn't delve into it: "Let's accomplish the main purpose of our coming here first." ”
Immediately, Aoyagi and Shirona followed the footsteps of the group in front of them.
……
Coming from the shore to the giant skeleton, the group stopped.
Aoyagi soon noticed that at the feet of this giant fast dragon skeleton, more than a dozen dragon tooth props were neatly placed just from the appearance, which was very simple and full of the vicissitudes of life.
Almost every one of them is the same size as the dragon tooth used in the middle of the battle between Adu and himself during the pulling ceremony, and the individual two even faintly surpass.
"These are the best quality dragon fangs in the clan right now, and both single and overlapping rituals are enough." Elder Dragon said.
Granny Long nodded: "I can see it, then let's start directly." ”
With that, the eyes of the two old men looked at Aoyagi and Shirona at the same time.
"You two, who will come first?"
Shirona also turned her gaze to Aoyagi at this moment.
"Ladies first?"
Aoyagi said.
Sirona nodded, and a crisp voice sounded, "I can do it all." ”
After saying that, he walked straight forward.
In a flickering red light, Sirona's ace Pokémon Flame Biting Land Shark appeared and took a position under her command.
Granny Dragon and Elder Dragon glanced at each other, and then the former came to the disc containing the dragon's fangs, picked up one and threw it to the Fierce Bite Land Shark, Granny Dragon's expression quickly became solemn, and her mouth began to recite a complex and mysterious incantation.
A few seconds passed, and as the speed of the spell became faster and faster, a burst of light as strong as the light of evolution suddenly erupted from the dragon's fangs, directly enveloping the entire body of the Fierce Bite Land Shark.
Airplanes!
There was a dull hum in the cavern.
In the next moment, all the white light that burst out from the dragon's fangs rose into the sky, condensing a huge dragon of light in the shape of an oriental dragon above his head, and opened his bloody mouth in a roar.
Roar!
The huge roar was deafening, and the dragon of light spiraled up, and in an instant, it turned into dots of broken light and sprinkled from above, and finally turned into a white streamer of light that fell from the sky, and forcefully poured into the body of the fierce biting land shark.
In just an instant, the momentum of the fierce bite land shark had climbed to the peak of its own level, and after reaching the peak, it still continued to rise without any stopping.
The orange-yellow pupils of the fierce bite land shark flashed with obvious pain, and subtle but dense cracks appeared on the skin, and the energy on the surface of the body began to be disordered, as if it was about to fall into a state of rage because of the surge in energy.
"Bite the land shark!"
Sirona whispered.
The expression of the fierce bite of the land shark became extremely hideous in an instant.
"That's right!"
Click!!
After a low roar, a crisp sound like fried beans came from the body of the fierce bite of the land shark, and in a moment, its body began to rise rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and its body became even taller and more majestic, and the fierce aura also expanded rapidly.
At this moment, the originally violent energy seemed to have encountered an existence that was even more ferocious than it, and it was slowly settled down as if it had been forcibly suppressed.
It wasn't until the light derived from the dragon's tooth was completely integrated into the body of the biting land shark that it all ended.
"It looks pretty good."
Elder Long glanced at the fierce bite land shark, then turned his head to look at Granny Long next to him and said, "Although it looks like an old man with dizzy eyes, I didn't think that it was good to have a good vision, and I accepted a good apprentice." ”
Granny Long didn't reply, and she didn't have much expression on her face, but the faint smile on the corner of her mouth had already revealed her inner thoughts at the moment.
At the same time, Aoyagi, who heard the exchange between the two, activated the panel on the Fierce Biting Land Shark.
A few new lines of small blue letters popped up in front of my eyes.
【Race】Fierce bite land shark
【Status】Surge of potential (Greatly increased individual potential after being baptized by the Dragon's Tooth Extraction Ritual)
Energetic (Increases overall combat effectiveness by 25% in this state)
"If I'm not mistaken...... The percentage of the last promotion ceremony carried out by Adu was 20%, although the situation at that time was a little different. Aoyagi muttered softly to himself.
However, since there are different numerical variations, it means that the ritual of Minghui will produce a part of the ritual feedback according to the individual existence or the dragon's tooth, or both.
This intensified Aoyagi's interest.
Because this is only a small 5% in comparison, in practice, the meaning of the representation is completely different.
After all, the gap between 5% of more than 100 and 5% of more than 10,000 is as huge as a chasm.
Since the effect of Sirona's Fierce Bite Land Shark Ritual is stronger than Adu's main lineup, what extent can Digimon whose racial potential far exceeds that of Pokémon change after passing such a ritual?
At this moment, Sirona also noticed the change in the fierce bite land shark, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, she was happy that it had become stronger.
After a moment, the eyes of the crowd turned to Aoyagi.
"It's your turn."
Granny Long spoke. (End of chapter)
