The scorching sun hung high in the sky, its venomous rays pouring down like molten gold, baking the entire wilderness until it was searing hot.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJA0BjDBreO
The surface temperature rose continuously, causing the air to ripple with distortion. In the distance, the mountains flickered within the heat waves, their outlines as blurred as a mirage.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSDXgO3t4F
In weather like this, many creatures could not withstand the heat and rarely ventured out.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8QmSeYplZ
The Dragonkin living inside the circular sinkhole were an exception.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKp7BxvTNm
As fire-elemental Dragons, such hot days actually made them feel more energetic and active than usual.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ962F16SK5c
It had been over a month since Garros last negotiated with the Iron Dragon Mother.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsO3UJZy1s
The young Dragons were in their prime growing phase, and Garros was very diligent in training to strengthen himself.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tBnSmTP19
Over this month, his body had grown slightly larger. His dragon scales were like cast steel, and the muscle fibers hidden beneath seemed to twist like steel wires whenever he exerted force, ready to unleash formidable power at any moment.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1W98aCfa4
"Break time is over, go dig for Ore for me!"
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7biSAmUPpJ
Near the cliff wall, Garros curled his tail and tossed two stones, striking the Iron Dragon Brother and the Red Dragon Sister on their heads, respectively.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNaNKHWy8c
The two hatchlings raised their heads in dissatisfaction, protesting righteously: "We only rested for one hour! Garros, this is abuse! According to the same mining schedule, Mother's Kobold kin get to rest for two hours!"
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEMca6nI43
The Iron Dragon Mother had kin.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6wT4xSh0a
Among them was a Kobold clan that specialized in mining for the Iron Dragon Mother.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5gk3lGdJW
Hearing this, Garros's tail struck the ground, sparking a flame, as he paced over to the two hatchlings.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrcGpVb1Ig
"Do you know why you can never beat me, are always pinned down by me, and can only be trampled and repeatedly humiliated by me?"
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Odk48Iw8A
He asked, lowering his gaze.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfucB43PcxL
The two hatchlings looked at each other, confused.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8yDhBy0un
"Because you lack ambition!"
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyPXsum47v
Garros leaned in close to the two hatchlings, his shadow looming over them, and said in a deep voice: "As noble True Dragons with dragon blood flowing through your veins, you actually compare yourselves to Kobolds!"
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LoLWE78Bj
The young Dragon shook his head, showing a look of pity and disappointment.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJK7XKC9q2T
"Trash that can't even outperform Kobolds; you truly disgrace your True Dragon blood."
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1aDyemvsJF
He said in a tone of extreme disdain.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRROQaWPwj
"Bullshit! Kobolds have no right to compare with me!"
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1UuKbhlOY
The Red Dragon Sister was furious.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOKCpidjGK
"Bullshit! I am a hundred times stronger than a Kobold!"
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ILkwWMkXo
The Iron Dragon Brother was also furious.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOsF9HS5iv
Garros's expression softened slightly, and he grinned: "Empty words prove nothing. Prove it to me. Let me see your resolve, let me see the strength and toughness you possess as Dragonkin."
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8iPkJzx7F
"Hmph, don't underestimate us!"
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgVuerRqSV
The two hatchlings snorted coldly, then immediately headed down into the previously opened mine tunnel, full of motivation. They exerted all their strength, determined to make Garros understand that they were not comparable to Kobolds, and vowed internally to make Garros look up to them.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdS7XME6Ws
The goading technique — a treasure against Dragonkin.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQZhcHG0uP
Dragonkin, with their arrogant and conceited nature, cannot stand being provoked.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRf6l3ESy9
He withdrew his gaze from the two hatchlings who had gone down into the mine.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHH060FXB0
"If only the Iron Dragon Mother were as easy to fool as them."
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDCfazNwQ8
Garros sighed.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnlbwBFoRX
As Dragonkin grow in age and experience, they can more or less control their instincts. Adult Dragons like the Iron Dragon Mother have much higher intelligence than hatchlings.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqq6Icg59e
As for the two hatchlings, they are currently like fools and very easy to deceive.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoaDuKDskZ
If Dragons like these grow for another year and become young Dragons, and if they follow the normal development of being expelled by the Dragon Mother to live alone, it is hard to imagine how they could survive in this perilous world with their weak and playful personalities.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6Ql2iUsPM
Meanwhile.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSS6Ik0ZCj
A gust of wind suddenly swept past.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1RhKedEzR
Garros looked up at the sky. In his field of vision appeared the Iron Dragon Mother, soaring with wings spread across the sky. Her body was massive and colossal, rolling with dragon might, and her nearly forty-meter wingspan cast a thick shadow on the ground.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb25Ogpeai1
Dust flew wildly on the ground, and some gravel vibrated continuously.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyDegwU4ZV
A dark, blurry shadow was dropped by the Iron Dragon Mother, crashing to the ground with a deafening sound like an earthquake. A deep pit was smashed at the landing spot, with dense cracks spreading outward, and a circle of dust expanded rapidly.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzedEqT34t
Waving his wings to disperse the dust, Garros looked closely.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6iloCpiTV
Weighing dozens of tons, with layers of muscles all over its body, a pair of huge horns on its head, and covered in hard armor, a Great Horned Bull was reflected in Garros's vision.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJio2antHA
This was a Vicious Beast with a Rank of over 10.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhLgo6dkX1
It was also the high-quality blood-food that Garros needed.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfp8tMrj2D
The Iron Dragon Mother kept her end of the bargain with Garros, regularly providing him with high-quality blood-food.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmZfDfBW12
This was specifically for him.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCxSuF3ous
As for the two hatchlings, they were oppressed by Garros to mine, but they weren't working day and night; they weren't true slaves. They had food provided by the Iron Dragon Mother when they returned to the dragon nest.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzrsgslV2G
The Iron Dragon Mother had a cold personality but valued rules. She was always qualified in what she was supposed to do, never mistreating any hatchling, but also not showing any special favor.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqN879eRWgx
After dropping the prey, the Iron Dragon Mother did not linger and went straight back to her nest.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyHHu6BeJi
"Time to eat."
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2xpZMejCK
Garros withdrew his gaze, took a deep breath, and began to tear into the Great Horned Bull's body.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeacvTQue8
The hard armor covering its body could not be bitten through in one go, even with the teeth Garros had trained by gnawing on metal Ore; he still needed to tear at it with effort.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1E1QxnsIUi
The beef was very fresh, no less than chasing it while it was still alive; it was tough and chewy.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxefMFZhTt
With every bite he swallowed, Garros felt his body warm up, receiving an abundant supply of nutritional energy.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhFXBHYO2o
When he had finished a small portion of the Great Horned Bull's flesh, a tingling, itchy sensation suddenly emerged from inside and outside Garros's body, flowing and surging repeatedly like a tide.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ybW5Zseoa
"This is the feeling."
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IBdaftx4v
Garros's eyes lit up with joy.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoRoKlDK3d
He had eaten a lot of beef in one go. Even with the iron stomach of a Dragon, which was like a furnace, Garros had felt a bit full earlier. But as the tingling sensation emerged from within and without, his satiety faded, and he even developed a strong craving for food again.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroivgCzD72
The young Dragon took a deep breath, opened his dragon maw wide, and revealed a mouthful of dragon teeth.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQwyJjpEK5
Chomp!
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡac8QKb6RH1
Tearing off a large mouthful of beef, Garros chewed it a few times and swallowed it. The beef in his stomach turned into a warm breath almost instantly, flowing with the waves of tingling sensation to Garros's limbs and bones, mainly concentrating on the areas Garros had been training recently.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRTPiTK5kF
The scales that were in direct contact with the ground, the dragon horns that struck the mountain side repeatedly, and the dragon tail that whipped against rocks.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByl0FferwW
This also included the muscles that bore the recoil, the internal organs, etc.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkOopQSYUZ
However.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCl8JpLyZH
There were no visible changes on Garros's body, only the tingling, electric sensation remained constant.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLFWADW7nK
"Evolution is not completed in an instant, but rather, after I have accumulated enough adaptation and have sufficient energy replenishment, I make rapid progress over the next period of time, obtaining corresponding evolution based on my recent accumulated adaptation."
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcaoA205ht
Garros thought silently.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZmN48xuXM
Over the past few years, he had been constantly thinking and exploring the essence of his talent, and he had his own guesses and ideas.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7x2HMBnXS6
Any creature actually possesses the power of Adaptive Evolution, but under normal circumstances, it often takes millions of years and requires a long period of evolution.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxCTzAwXMs
But Garros could shorten this time infinitely.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1oQPTsoXk
The key was that his evolutionary talent itself was also growing.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5VF7YnHa4
"Perhaps one day in the future, I will be able to complete Adaptive Evolution in an instant, or even evolve directly in the direction I want."
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nx9RcGF15
He thought to himself.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8XGUt2FGT
Immediately after, Garros made a final push and actually finished all the meat of the Great Horned Bull, which weighed many times more than himself.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwd99yN6I6Y
The tingling sensation on his body became exceptionally intense and rich.
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GepU0A3BB
He struck while the iron was hot. Under the bright and piercing sunlight, he continued to start slamming into the mountain and the ground again and again, in pain yet happy.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQVqbyr8pg
