"Ron, come over quickly, I'll be waiting for you!"

"Here we are."

Ron said lazily in agreement.

He waved his little dragon wings and flew towards everyone slowly, while muttering secretly in his heart:

"Really, it's obviously a group of long-lived species, what kind of celebration of short-born species."

For Carol and the others, Ron had already prepared the materials for their dragon vein baptism.

At that time, they who have been baptized by dragon blood will receive a part of the lifespan of the corresponding real dragon.

And the lifespan of the iridescent dragon. It can only be said that "heaven and earth are not old, I am not old".

Normal Iridescent Dragons grow twice or more faster than normal Dragons (the same goes for Power Dragons, but not for Time Dragons).

According to the Book of Dragons:

There is a very slow growth rate of the iridescent dragon that took a hundred years to go from the young dragon stage to the baby dragon stage!

Therefore, with the blessing of the rainbow dragon blood baptism, everyone will be promoted to a legend or even a demigod, and their lifespan will also gain a leap.

At that time, they were a proper immortal seed.

Soon, though, Ron was also in place under Shirley's arrangement.

Due to height and space issues, Ron was specially placed in a chair with four thick history books on the chair.

I watched as the upright Iridescent Dragon stood on a thick book mat and posed with its wings spread.

Shirley smiled knowingly, and manipulated the mage's hand to aim the Shadow Stone at everyone.

"Ready, I'm going to shoot."

"Three"

"Two"

When the last number is about to be said.

Shirley suddenly jumped out of the Shadow Stone, quickly rushed to the front of the Iridescent Dragon, put her arms around the neck of the stunned Ron, put her face to her face, and stretched out two fingers at the Shadow Stone with a smile.

Tina and the others didn't expect Shirley to hide this trick.

No wonder the other party took the initiative to stop the photo task today, it turned out that he was waiting for a sneak attack at this time!

"Ron."

"Ahh Shirley, you're so cunning! ”

"It's just, how can this be!"

"Damn, I'm going to my father's side too!"

"Master."

The angry women finally reacted and crowded in Ron's direction.

"Wait! Wait a minute! Don't be impulsive! ”

Ron watched in horror at the crowd.

With the exception of Leona, the group of girls rushed up and almost drowned Ron.

However, Shirley didn't care about it, still hugged Ron's head, looked at the direction of the Shadow Stone and said the last number with a smile:

"One"

"Click!"

Accompanied by the sound of the moving of the Shadow Stone.

The image of the crowd in a mess is forever frozen in this second.

——————————

After taking pictures, it is natural to come to the highlight of the day - Chinese New Year's Eve dinner!

"The fish are coming~~~"

Wearing a crisp white chef's hat and a blue apron tied around her waist, Vivien slowly walked out of the kitchen.

She cautiously walked to the table with a large plate of steaming steamed fish.

Before the people arrived, the delicious smell had already wafted to everyone.

"It smells so good!"

Tina sniffed the scent in the air and felt like her saliva was going to water.

She couldn't help but wipe the corners of her mouth with her hand and looked expectantly at the steamed fish that Vivien had brought her.

Soon, this super dish, which is nearly two meters long on the plate alone, was served to the table.

Steamed fish has an enticing aroma on the plate.

The fish is white and tender, steamed and freshly cooked, and each piece of meat is full and elastic.

It is sprinkled with green onions, ginger, garlic and various unknown seasonings, giving the fish a refreshing and rich flavor.

The soup of the steamed fish flows quietly on the plate, exuding a faint fragrance.

The color combination of the whole dish is simple and eye-catching, which makes people have an appetite when they look at it.

As a guest, Leona first carefully sandwiched a piece of white and tender fish belly meat and put it in her mouth under everyone's expectant gaze.

"Hmm!"

"It's delicious!"

The flesh of the fish seems to dance in the mouth, and it seems to be melted away in an instant.

That smooth and tender taste made Leona, who was cold and hot, unconsciously squint her eyes.

Seeing her intoxicated appearance, everyone finally couldn't help it, and they all picked up a piece of fish meat and put it in their mouths.

When you bite into it, the fish is tender and juicy, and the flavor and aroma that are completely released are intoxicating.

The taste buds feel as if they are immersed in a sea of flavors, and every bite is unforgettable.

"It's delicious!"

"It's the best fish I've ever had."

"Vivien is amazing!"

Everyone's eyes flashed with satisfaction and admiration, and they couldn't help but praise Vivien's cooking skills.

Vivien watched with joy as everyone enjoyed the food, and her hard work and sweat turned into a hearty meal.

Tina's performance was a bit exaggerated.

She cried as she ate!

"Woo woo ┭┮_┭┮."

Shirley looked at the sobbing Tina suspiciously, and asked curiously:

"Tina, what are you crying about? Is it the unappetizing fish? ”

Tina touched her tears, and while gulping the fish, she said vaguely:

"Woo woo, the thought that she won't be able to eat this fish in the future makes Tina feel so sad."

“.”

Everyone was a little speechless at Tina's reaction, but they didn't expect her to cry for this reason.

Ron couldn't help but laugh.

Even Shirley shook her head helplessly, not knowing what to say about this gluttonous guy.

"Whew——!"

A sharp sound of breaking the air sounded outside the castle, followed by red fireworks exploding in the air.

"Hmm, it's just that the New Year's fireworks festival organized by the Magic Association has begun."

Leona looked at the endless stream of fireworks outside the window and explained softly.

There is no gunpowder in this world, and this so-called "firework" is actually an extension of the [Three-Ring Magic: Fireball Technique].

Every firework in the sky is the result of the painstaking release of the mages, and many of them are fire-based magic, but other types of magic occasionally appear.

It is only on Chinese New Year's Eve that those noble mages are willing to present a regular magic performance for the common people.

While enjoying the food, everyone chatted about the shortcomings and surprises of this year's fireworks display

Ron looked at the table full of delicious food, a little distracted.

"It always feels like there's something missing."

He muttered in his mind.

"What's missing?"

“.”

The guardian rune slowly swirled in his heart, and a hidden emerald green light gradually attached to the nine-colored dragon eyes.

In a trance.

It was as if Ron had seen a vision of another world.

The New Year there is much more grand and lively than here.

And the middle-aged woman whose face was covered with traces of vicissitudes was guarding the dining table alone at the moment, looking at the endless stream of fireworks outside the window, silent.

"I'll go out."

He suddenly got up, spread his dragon wings, and flew quickly into the kitchen.

"Huh? Ron: What's wrong with this? ”

Carol looked at the back of the iridescent dragon in amazement, and looked at Vivien with some confusion.

Vivien shook her head:

"I don't know"

suddenly

Vivien jerked up at the sporadic humanoid fireworks outside the house, as if she had thought of something.

"Ron."

She turned and looked in the direction of the kitchen, a little worried.

The fingers hidden under the sleeves were unconsciously pinched by her, and they did not open until the fingertips turned white.

"Would you like to go in and have a look?"

Carol also seemed to notice that something was wrong, and as she looked at the crowd still enjoying the delicious meal, she whispered a reminder in Vivien's ear.

But Vivien's next reaction was something Carroll hadn't expected.

"Don't let him be quiet by himself, we will only make him more distressed if we go in."

Vivien pursed her lips and spoke softly.

Everyone happily sat around the dining table and greeted the arrival of the new year with joy.

The table is filled with a variety of delicacies, and the hearty dishes are mouth-watering.

Everyone talked and laughed, and laughter filled the room.

"Huh? What about the big colored dragon? ”

Tina finally realized that there was a certain iridescent dragon missing from the table.

She looked around, but didn't find the familiar figure.

"Huh? Obviously he was still here just now? ”

Shirley also looked at the empty books in confusion.

Just when everyone was aware of Ron's disappearance.

Ron's voice suddenly came from the kitchen:

"Here it is, here it is"

Then the cloth curtain of the kitchen was gently lifted by the dragon's tail.

Ron flew slowly to the table with a plate of strangely shaped food, and placed it in the center of the table.

Tina looked at the white jade and unique folded flour products on the porcelain plate, and asked curiously:

"What is this? It's weird, isn't it? Can you eat it? ”

"It's called dumplings."

Steaming dumplings are placed on the table with an enticing aroma.

The appearance of the dumplings is delicate and inviting, and each dumpling is wrapped in a thin crust and is perfectly shaped, like a work of art.

The sides of the dumplings are gently kneaded together to form unique folds, each of which appears to be finely sculpted.

Ron looked at the memories he had made, smiled, and continued:

"Probably. It's a special dish from where I was born. ”

Hearing this, Tina's eyes suddenly lit up with gold:

"Wow, Tina has never eaten anything like this before, I'm going to try it first."

Before she could finish speaking, Tina reached for her fork and prepared to poke a dumpling to taste.

However, a pair of chopsticks blocked her movements.

"Huh?"

Under Tina's puzzled gaze, Ron reached out his chopsticks and took a dumpling and placed it on Tina's plate.

Everyone looked at Ron in amazement.

This is the first time he's ever served food to someone else.

Ron didn't seem to notice everyone's gaze, he just looked at the plate of dumplings with nostalgia, and slowly explained:

"Remember to use chopsticks when eating this."

"Oh."

It was rare for Tina not to talk back, but obediently changed the chopsticks next to her.

She tentatively touched the skin of the dumplings and felt the softness and smoothness.

Then she picked up a dumpling and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Hmm!"

Tina's eyes widened.

She was amazed to find that the seemingly white mass of pasta was wrapped in a delicious filling with vegetables, meat, and various spices.

"It's delicious!"

Looking at Tina's satisfied expression, everyone also picked up their chopsticks and tasted this delicious taste that they had never experienced before.

"Really tasty! Hmm, I seem to have tasted rock mutton and green vegetables! ”

Vivien's eyes lit up and she exclaimed.

"I ate shrimp, and the filling seems to be different?"

Carol blinked, looking at Ron.

"I've got nine different flavors, and if you like it."

Ron smiled and explained.

Everyone tasted this unique dumpling and marveled at Ron's cooking.

Each bite brings a different taste, and everyone finds their favorite taste.

Look at everyone's satisfied expressions.

Ron also took care of himself and stuffed a dumpling into his mouth.

"It's shrimp, it's good luck."

He thought about it until the next second, when a slightly hard, round object was crushed by him.

Ron paused suddenly.

The aroma of peanuts slowly reverberates in the mouth.

"Really, I wrapped one and let myself eat it."

Ron laughed dumbly.

"Huh? Ron, are you so hot? Sweaty after eating? ”

The sharp-eyed Tina pointed to the droplets in the iridescent dragon's jaw and said curiously.

Ron waved his hand casually and said with a smile:

"It's okay, I just happened to eat a dumpling stuffed with chili peppers."

Hearing this, Tina immediately lifted her spirits

"Hmm! Even chili traps are made! Damn, looks like Tina needs to be careful. ”

Tina's eyes widened as she scrutinized the remaining dumplings on the plate, praying that she wouldn't pick on the chili filling.

But until the dumplings were finished, she didn't find the chili filled dumplings.

"Knock knock!"

Suddenly, there was a knock outside the door of the Castle of Justice.

"Who is it?"

Tina asked, curiously commanding the maid in costume to open the door.

Under the moonlight, an elderly figure appeared in everyone's field of vision.

"Father?" X2

Carol and Leona stood up in surprise and shouted as they looked at Duke Rodney's face outside the door.

"Why are you here?" X2

Duke Rodney walked in with a smile and teased:

"Why, can't I come and see my precious daughters?"

"That's not what I meant."

Carroll was dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer.

Rodney shook his head and smiled:

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just here as a visitor for a meal."

"I hope Lord Ron doesn't mind."

He held up several delicate and luxurious dishes in his hand and shook them.

As soon as you look at the quality, you know that it is definitely just made by a top chef, and presumably the Duke has also taken great pains to rub the rice.

Ron nodded, not saying more.

He looked sideways over Rodney's shoulder.

On the shoulder of the legendary mage stands a magical beast in the shape of a cute lion cub.

And the moment he saw Ron, the cute little lion left Rodney and rushed to the side of the rainbow dragon, and shouted respectfully:

"Lord Ron, I'm late, it's all because that human had to find someone to cook a few dishes before he would come."

It can be heard that the female face of the Sphinx-Lori Ortega is very dissatisfied with the duke's inkblot behavior.

"Well, I'm sorry, it's New Year, and it's not easy to find a cook."

Rodney scratched his head in embarrassment.

Ron shook his head and said:

"It's okay, it's good if people come, after all, it's the New Year, and it's lively when everyone gets together."

Carol and Leona realized that their father's arrival had been invited by Ron.

"Thank you."

Out of sight, Carol winked playfully at Ron.

Ron shook his head, then pointed to the female face Sphinx beside him, who had shrunk her body, and explained to the puzzled people:

"By the way, I'll introduce you."

"This is Lori Ortega, a family I met in the Red Clay Heights. Friend. ”

After hearing that the person in front of them was the legendary and famous Sphinx, everyone invariably turned their curious eyes to Ortega.

Tina looked at this rare legendary beast in amazement and took the initiative to speak.

"Hello, my name is Tina, and this is the first time I've seen a living Sphinx."

"Hello, my name is Ortega, and you are the third living golden dragon I have ever seen."

Lori Ortega also responded "politely".

With Tina's beginning, everyone also took the initiative to communicate with the Sphinx.

Especially in the moment.

Perhaps because of the blood of the Ice Wolf Clan, she and the female face Sphinx seem to hit it off at first sight, and the goodwill between the two is also soaring.

Soon, everyone was back at the table.

Vivien also served two sets of cutlery and napkins to Rodney and Ortega.

"Happy New Year!"

At Ron's initiative to raise a glass.

Everyone lifted the juice, saluted each other, and blessed each other.

In a warm atmosphere, everyone tasted the food, enjoyed the warmth of family reunion, and welcomed the arrival of the new year.

At this moment, happiness and satisfaction fill everyone's heart.

Just as everyone raised their glasses in celebration.

Suddenly.

"Knock knock!"

There was another knock at the door.

Everyone tacitly turned their attention to Ron.

And the latter shook his head helplessly:

"I didn't call a second group."

Shirley frowned slightly:

"And who will knock on the door?" (End of chapter)
