Bernardo is the name of the planet beneath Garros's feet.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAQonAPJsKVv
On this planet, magical culture is highly developed, and every nation is sparing no effort in developing magical technology.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAIsXx0XHr9q
Highly advanced nations have even built interstellar spaceships using magic engines, acquiring resources from the Universe by exploring outer space and other planets.
14Please respect copyright.PENANATNMtiGu8eK
"Dragonkin are nearly the top-tier creatures, but in this world, they cannot be called invincible."
14Please respect copyright.PENANA0tcN6ycGsg
Garros blinked as he gazed at the Fake Moon in the sky.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAtbqeB0sh3y
The Legacy mentioned that there was once an Ancient Blue Dragon known as [Wings of Hurricane] who was hunted by Nausir for a long time after destroying several cities in the Nausir Elven Empire.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAH6nYwCBpjp
Eventually, using a city as bait, Nausir trapped the Wings of Hurricane with a great magic formation.
14Please respect copyright.PENANARUEsgnTOVd
The Fake Moon descended a beam of light that destroyed everything, killing the Wings of Hurricane.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAXKgwUcmkRV
"Moreover, the other biological races on Planet Bernardo have a poor impression of Chromatic Dragons and Ferrous Dragons; once discovered, they will immediately prepare for a crusade."
14Please respect copyright.PENANABTYjbwQuJT
The Dragon Clan has many classifications.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAidyaWWfmk5
For instance, the most common ones are the Chromatic Dragons, Metallic Dragons, and Gem Dragons, followed by the Ferrous Dragons.
14Please respect copyright.PENANACY3RTtKRMB
Because Chromatic Dragons are inherently evil and keen on causing destruction, they are identified as Evil Dragons. Ferrous Dragons are even seen as the 'mad dogs' among Dragonkin, frequently killing their own kind, let alone other biological races.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA7J3IRm6CNN
"I am a Hybrid Dragon of Chromatic and Sub-Iron Bloodlines, specifically a mix of Red Dragon and Iron Dragon. I'm afraid I'll be seen as the most evil among Evil Dragons—a naturally wicked Dragonkin seed, so terrifying that I must not be allowed to live."
14Please respect copyright.PENANAReOuU8RZE7
He sat down by the lakeside.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAIlvg8Oz5Ox
The Young Dragon's tail was submerged in the water, swaying back and forth.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAAuV8Mms0lD
Moonlight shone on Garros as he felt the comfort of his tail drifting in the water, with occasional small fish cleaning away weeds and dust, while he pondered in his heart.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAEjYWDdJmNI
"I should still train more and strengthen myself."
14Please respect copyright.PENANAlLkrIBh50Z
"Only by becoming strong will I have more confidence when facing potential dangers in the future."
14Please respect copyright.PENANAhUzRT4AD7r
This dragon life has only just begun, and Garros hoped to live as long as possible, not wanting to be like his previous life, where he met with a fatal accident right in the prime of his eighteen years.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAmrGfe2EL6b
"First, set a small goal: live to be a hundred."
14Please respect copyright.PENANAJebN1aOPPV
"Wait, Dragonkin only reach adulthood at a hundred; I'd better hope for a thousand-year lifespan."
14Please respect copyright.PENANASR587IWARW
Garros leaned backward.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAUI7wNYQptH
The Young Dragon's body crashed through the water's surface, splashing countless crystal-clear droplets under the moonlight. He dove to the deepest part of the lake, enduring the heavy water pressure without breathing.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAUHonsaO6oY
—Dragonkin can actually breathe underwater.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAkwaQuT5lPw
Garros simply wanted to train his cardiopulmonary capacity and his affinity for the water element.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAYOMvAfumPp
Thanks to various daily training sessions, his lungs were much stronger than those of ordinary Dragonkin, and the intensity and duration of his Dragon Breath were superior to those of a normal Young Dragon.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAMNcbPFkfBJ
Additionally, both Iron Dragons and Red Dragons are fire-attribute dragons and do not actually like water.
14Please respect copyright.PENANASIWyLgdIj0
The hybrid Garros was the same—a definitive fire-attribute dragon.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAPed9ey985I
Attacks with attributes like water or ice would deal double damage to him.
14Please respect copyright.PENANABzk0IGTW0Y
The best way to overcome fear is to face it.
14Please respect copyright.PENANARAZoR5B3r5
To prevent being caught off guard by attribute-countering attacks one day, Garros had been enduring his aversion to water for several years, occasionally soaking in it for desensitization and adaptation.
14Please respect copyright.PENANABUS7NwghhD
By now, his instinctive aversion to water had completely vanished.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAK7Rung0ygj
Although he hadn't actually encountered a water-attribute attack and couldn't be certain of his water element affinity, Garros felt that, at the very least, he wouldn't take double damage.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAEDpdKJcm2t
Suddenly.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAla5JObDbC3
A slight ripple in the water came from behind him.
14Please respect copyright.PENANARAljtUWZdj
A dark shadow approached rapidly and launched an attack on Garros.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAH2ag7MfHvt
Garros keenly captured the change in the current. Before the attack could land, he turned his body, raised his dragon claw, and struck out fiercely.
14Please respect copyright.PENANApM3vMN7CvB
Boom!
14Please respect copyright.PENANAHKplfEUQ45
A black dragon claw and a fiery Red Dragon claw collided, sending a shockwave through the water.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAAE3BoLaKj1
The fiery Red Dragon claw locked with Garros's, attempting a contest of strength.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAVWuk2cw9NR
However.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAOd6D13vjRe
Garros's strength was astonishing. The powerful muscles beneath his dragon scales bulged, even lifting the scales slightly. His claw pressed back the fiery red one inch by inch, forcing it to retreat.
14Please respect copyright.PENANADZiIELpfgM
The contest of strength was lost.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAgoBceaf70j
The owner of the fiery red claw withdrew it and stared at Garros with a pair of Red Dragon pupils, saying in a crisp, displeased voice, "Garros, you wretched hybrid, I will defeat you sooner or later!"
14Please respect copyright.PENANA8zniSRVqEb
Hatchling Samantha was Garros's biological Red Dragon Sister, a pure-blooded Red Dragon.
14Please respect copyright.PENANANdvoCO9W3g
In the Dragon Clan, hybrids are rare because Dragonkin Bloodlines are overbearing and difficult to fuse.
14Please respect copyright.PENANALPeM7SJlcN
For example, when a Red Dragon and an Iron Dragon conceive offspring, there is a very high probability of producing a pure-blooded Red Dragon or a pure-blooded Iron Dragon; the offspring will inherit the Bloodline of one parent. Hybrid Dragons like Garros, who can fuse the blood of Red and Iron, are few in number.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAGsEsljUSXp
Slap!
14Please respect copyright.PENANAmTAAsxkoKi
Garros slapped the red Hatchling on the head with his claw.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAoEIjtd1ek7
"When dealing with a Dragonkin stronger than you, watch your tone and choice of words."
14Please respect copyright.PENANA6NjM29xiRr
This slap sent the red Hatchling's head tilting sharply, nearly knocking her off balance; the force was not light.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA45nitxu6tu
Between Dragons, especially Evil Dragons, strength is often what speaks. Only power can earn the respect of other Evil Dragons, and Garros had grown accustomed to this way of communication.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA1QV9LdV1YR
Red Dragon Sister hatched a year later than Garros.
14Please respect copyright.PENANANTXSeQrQP8
At that time, Garros saw that his dragon sister was chubby and round, looking cute and honest, so he tore off a piece of meat from the food he was eating and gave it to her.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAGd5U4fRVPg
As a result.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA5D31pPTulR
Instead, she thought Garros was weak and took advantage of him. Her Evil Dragon nature flared up, and she ordered Garros to hand over all his food. The other Iron Dragon Brother, who hatched at the same time, also thought Garros was weak and conspired with Red Dragon Sister to extort Garros's food.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA0C6gmjl9VA
After being rejected by Garros, the two actually used their claws to try and snatch all of Garros's food.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAqE2draFpuj
Afterward, Garros pinned them to the ground and gave them a severe beating, and they only behaved after several of their teeth were knocked out.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAnDXk69UgqU
As a Hybrid Dragon, Garros was naturally stronger than an ordinary Red Dragon or Iron Dragon, not to mention he was a year older.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAIV1Y9NOlRc
Meanwhile.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA6MwcAwWdqo
After taking the slap, Red Dragon Sister bared her teeth, wanting to fight back, but when she saw the fierce glint in Garros's eyes, she sensibly restrained herself.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAjya0PQtqWs
Red Dragons worship violence and like to solve problems through force.
14Please respect copyright.PENANApdj5mUEGme
However, when their violence is weaker than the opponent's, they will endure for the time being, waiting to surpass them before taking vicious revenge.
14Please respect copyright.PENANArmClSgVoiL
Furthermore, she had received plenty of beatings from Garros over the years and knew that this dragon brother of hers would not show any mercy.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAAq9Qy2cAia
"My respected brother."
14Please respect copyright.PENANAtU1oD0UFS1
Red Dragon Sister softened her tone and said, "Mother wants you to go to the dragon nest."
14Please respect copyright.PENANAp2j6mQcVBk
After stating her purpose for finding Garros, she muttered under her breath, "Spending every day soaking in water... you're really strange. You made me have to come into the water too."
14Please respect copyright.PENANAAsamvq2Jkz
Red Dragon Sister was completely uncomfortable in the water, her dragon face filled with an expression of disgust.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAEVrsbbdChn
She wiggled her tail and waist, floating rapidly toward the surface and leaving the lake water ahead of Garros.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAi4AI92S4NW
Garros was in no hurry. He flapped his wings in the water and then burst out, soaring through the air. He overtook Red Dragon Sister and flew toward the dragon nest.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAfnzYkSlVvY
The dragon nest—it was located on the cliff face of the eastern side of the sinkhole.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAmIKCApimNQ
From the outside, it looked like a simple and rugged cave.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAHUB1MHUN7X
Moonlight could not reach inside the dragon nest, but the stone walls inside were plated with a layer of strange metal. Some areas emitted a bright glow, so it was not dark inside.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAyWoQRVlJGE
Garros folded his wings and walked with alternating limbs, stepping across the metallized floor as he went deeper inside.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAYvtMDXsfa0
The deeper he went, the more metal there was around him.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAoWdEYkF74q
Clusters of metal bloomed like flowers on the stone walls, and some angular metal pillars protruded from the ground.
14Please respect copyright.PENANALSA4Mkz8B0
Finally, when Garros reached the deepest part of the cave, his vision suddenly opened up as he arrived in a massive 'hollow.'
14Please respect copyright.PENANA8JDxk5dcu7
This core of the dragon nest was not a crude cavern in the traditional sense.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA5lJl6dd5Qr
The surrounding ground and stone walls were covered in a layer of soft yet tough metal, its texture similar to mercury, but with rust-colored ripples on the surface.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAEGvfhVRuxy
To the north stood a thirty-meter-high tiered metal platform, atop which was Iron Dragon Mother's exclusive throne.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAlly96VKL7s
—It was forged from countless swords and halberds. The weapons of the defeated were now solidified into steps, with each level inscribed with dragon language runes.
14Please respect copyright.PENANApbNeReHdyO
Garros looked up.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAwGTFBfExQP
On the throne was a behemoth twenty meters long, whose breath created air currents like howling gales—a true dragon.14Please respect copyright.PENANA3A1i6ucvkE
