1260 Mission 2 (1/2)
Garen tried a few times. Initially, it was ineffective. However, his soul was simply too powerful and he was able to vaguely sense the minute trajectory of the snowflakes above his head after a few trials.
The change was so minute that if Garen would not have been able to detect it if he were not paying a close attention. His Draconic Aura was currently not strong enough to influence the external objects. This was the only effect he was able to produce as of now after he gathered all of his Draconic Aura.
”Alright. It's time to hand out your missions.” Baesman, who had just finished explaining the basics started speaking up once more.
”You'll have to give in order to receive. Your mission is to head to the ice forest in the south and hunt for the Giant Frost Iguanas. The heart and eyeballs from the Giant Frost Iguanas are very valuable in breeding the Black Teeth Wolves as they could greatly increase their fertility rate.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
The Black Teeth Wolves were the White Dragon Clan's livestock similar to how humans raising pigs.
”The Giant Frost Iguana typically ranges from Level Three to Five and they're best for you to train yourselves. Naturally, you'll have to retreat when you encounter the Elder Giant Iguana. Since we treat them as a source of food, they would definitely view us as a threat. The Elder Giant Iguana is a Level Six living being. You'll die if you don't run away from it.”
He then started to point out the Giant Frost Iguana's weakness, behavior, and its abilities.
As Garen listened attentively, the lecture soon reached to an end.
All of them returned back to their quarters to sleep to get some rest before continuing the lecture the next day.
Garen's dwelled together with Satwo and the others in a cave located at the foot of the snowy peak. It was originally a bear cave. However, it had been deserted for a long time and it seemed to have been scared off as the White Dragon Clan arrived. As the foot of the mountain had a high temperature of twenty plus degree Celsius, it was rather uncomfortable to the White Dragons which preferred a cool environment. It was also not safe enough, which was the reason why no dragons came to this area. Only Garen and the other orphaned dragons would come here as they had no other place to go.
He kept alternating attending classes and resting, leading a peaceful life as a month passed in a blink of an eye.
Garen then had accumulated a few Attribute Points.
Garen decided to put in all of his accumulated Attribute Points before it was time for him to start his mission.
The dragon was laying down deep inside the cave. Garen started to observe his own Attributes and found that he had grasped the basics of Draconic Aura. While he could use his Attribute Points to increase the Draconic Aura's level, he did not wish to rush it as this skill required a long time to master. It would catch a lot of attention if he were to improve too much within a short period of time. He would be easily discovered by those with powerful spellcraft capabilities. Everything would be over if they found out that their soul was abnormal.
Since he was not able to add the points to his skills, he could only add them to his physical attributes. It was very cost effective for him to add them to his Physical Attributes in the early stages.
Coincidentally, Safour had gone to the Arcane Art Courses to discuss the content of the missions with a few other Dragon Whelps and found out that they had to go together.
Satwo and Sathree had gone out to hunt earlier and were already on their way.
Garen was the only one left inside the cave and would participate in hunting the Giant Frost Iguana the next day.
”I can be immune towards diseases and even a lot of Spellcraft if I have a strong Vitality and Strength. Furthermore, I will have the ability to evade fast and dangerous spells as well. I might even be able to avoid being locked by the Caster as well. The latter would not be able to injure me even if he had a high-level spell. I will be able to increase the Arcane Art's learning pace if I were to increase my intelligence. Although I have yet to officially learn Meditation, it is still very useful.”
Garen decided to increase his physical attributes instead of intelligence after hesitating for a while. One would not be able to learn Spellcraft in a short amount of time. This was especially true for the Dragon Clan, which possessed a powerful physical body.
”I'll enhance my speed, strength, and agility equally. I had the high-speed development similar to every other Dragon Whelp when I was born. However, it only lasted for about two months and the situation wouldn't reappear now that everything has calmed down. I have accumulated about five points worth of Attribute Points for the past two months. Since I have a mission to fulfill and since the Giant Frost Iguana is not fast but powerful, I will just add them into Strength for now.”
It would be better for him to finish the hunting missions earlier as this meant that he would obtain more rewards. Garen had also planned to breed a few Black Teeth Wolves so that he would not rely entirely on hunting nearby the area around it was too dangerous. Satwo and the others might be captured and killed off by the humans if they were not careful.
He could breed them within a certain area inside his own cave. He would have to wait it out and see the circumstance in terms of breeding the wolves' offspring. If it was not feasible, he could use them to exchange for other items such as books related to Arcane Arts.
Garen's learning pace far surpassed any other Dragon Whelp and since he had to follow the other Dragon Whelps' pace in class, he felt that he had wasted a lot of time and talent.
Garen looked at his own Status Pane after decided the path he wanted to take.
'Safive - Strength 16, Agility 15, Vitality 11, Intelligence 17. Potential 527%. Soul Limit 170'
He had placed all of his Attribute Points into Strength without any hesitation.
His Strength instantly rose from 16 to 21.
He could clearly hear the sound of his muscles tightening up. It sounded like a spring and even more like a reinforced bar being tightened.
He felt his limbs becoming firmer and heavier as the muscle density had increased.
He then whipped out his claws and attacked the ground inside the cave. A clear dragon claw mark could be seen as it was at least ten centimeters deep.
This was an end result of Garen's casual strike.
”A fully grown White Dragon's Strength is approximately between 30 to 40 points. I still have a long way to go...” Garen sighed softly as he eased his tightened muscles.
Although he was able to produce such power with 21 points of Strength, the adult dragons would be even more powerful since they had at least 20 more points than him. According to Garen's analysis, it was not just Strength as the remaining three Attributes of an adult dragon were between 30 to 40 points.
They were incredibly powerful as Garen might not be able to break an adult dragon's defense even if he had 30 points of Strength. This had yet to account for their incredible regenerative abilities.
