1261 Giant Iguana 1 (1/2)
His body's equally strong qualities were noticed when they were testing his standard level. Garen was revealing these things vaguely so that he would be taken seriously by the others despite not having the most valuable assets.
”They probably want me to focus on protecting Leona,” he pondered.
A series of chaotic noises echoed from the outside of the cave.
Garen prostrated himself on the ground and began practicing his Draconic Aura and Condensation skills alone.
This was a lengthy process but the one thing that the Dragon Clan did not lack was time.
The current strength of the average Dragon Whelp was about eighteen points. Garen was not worried about being unable to finish this Quest at all because his strength had already greatly surpassed the average Dragon Whelp.
After waiting for a while inside the cave, it appeared that Leona and the others had finished their discussion outside.
Only then did they enter the cave.
”Garen Garen!” Leona yelled while flying into the cave. ”We've finished discussing. You'll be one of the two main attackers. What do you think? Do you agree or not?”
”Main attacker?” Garen stood up. ”I don't mind but what'll you guys be doing?”
Boris opened his mouth immediately.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
”Leona and I both have specially made Enchanted Necklaces that can release Long-range Attack Spells. Don't worry, we won't disappoint you.” Although he was furious at Garen for ignoring him and returning to the cave alone, he remained courteous to him on the surface because he needed to assure Leona of his demeanor.
”What Attack Spells?” Garen revealed a surprised expression faintly.
Boris instantly raised his claws and pointed at the necklace in front of his chest in a somewhat proud manner. It was a chain of white pearls that had been strung into a necklace with a rare cerulean gem that hung below. It was extraordinarily dazzling and crystal-clear.
”Can you see it, Sleepyhead? My father prepared this outstanding item for me. It can release Level Five Dragonfire Spells three times a day.”
”Wow, that's so cool?! My ring can only use Dragonheal Spells three times daily.” Garen did not react but Leona who stood on the sidelines was unusually excited now.
Level Five Spellcrafting. Although they could only use it three times a day, it was enough to guarantee their safety. Moreover, it was very likely that they had other similar Spellcrafting Equipment.
These were types of Enchanted Equipment that could only be specially made by Casters and Wizards. They required Enchantment and would consume costly materials as well as a large amount of Spirit Power and energy before they could contact Weave to release and enchant a spell. It was pretty good that both of these Dragon Whelps had obtained two pieces of Level Five Enchanted Equipment. These items could only be specially created by Level Six Wizards and Casters that could afford to consume a lot of energy. A single Enchantment could cause a Wizard to consume at least one of their Casting levels. In other words, a Level Six Caster who was on the borderline of having their rank promoted would drop immediately instead if they tried to Enchant a piece of equipment like this. Moreover, they would deteriorate and return to their previous state when they had just entered Level Six. This was a waste of Spirit Power.
”They've really spent a huge sum of money,” Garen pondered. The White Dragon Clan had declined terribly. There were merely five or six Elder Dragons who were Casters that were Level Five or above. However, they instantly brought out two pieces of Enchanted Equipment. It was very likely that these items were collected articles that were seized from the humans.
”We don't have to fear anything now that we have these two pieces of equipment.” Boris was a Dragon Whelp to the core. There was still a limit to his maturity in the end. Hence, being unable to stop himself from taking his strongest trump card out and flaunting it was a very normal thing for him to do.
After confirming that they had their own defensive forces, only then did Garen truly decide to join this unit. Perhaps it was the other way around. After all, he and Leona were already partners in the same group that had to move together while Boris and the other dragon had rushed over to join them voluntarily.
The group of dragons prepared to check the items that they had brought respectively. There were no Space Dimensional Pockets. Items like that were seized from the humans by the White Dragon Clan. However, they could not use it because they did not possess human Spirit Powers. The Space Equipment would collapse and lose its effectiveness completely if they opened it forcibly. Moreover, the White Dragons like themselves did not have the craftsmen to create these playthings.
They finished checking the map and the various tools and items that they would use in their daily lives. The four Dragon Whelps formed a team and flew towards the mountain valley where according to the map was where the Giant Ice Iguana was located.
They chose to go there during the night to take advantage of the night sky that would make it unlikely for the other creatures to discover them. The distance between the Giant Ice Iguana and the White Dragon Clan was somewhat far. They needed to thread across an even longer distance. Even though there were roads that were cleaned up by White Dragons that frequently came and left, there were still certain Earth Dragons that were scattered everywhere because they were too used to Draconic Auras. Most of these Earth Dragons had low intellect and were very likely to attack Dragon Whelps that were just passing by.
When night came and the purple moonlight was covered by the black night sky, Leona and the group flew straight towards the location that was indicated on the map. There was a long continuous stretch of black forests in a rising and falling mountain range below them. The deep sound of large beasts that were fast asleep could be occasionally heard. There were multiple continuous bursts over a period of time.
Garen flew in the middle of the team. Meanwhile, a young fellow named Saszt flew in front. He was the muscular Dragon Whelp who had followed Boris. This boy's boastful tone was very apparent but he loved following Boris's orders. Meanwhile, Leona flew at the back beside Boris. However, her gaze was always swaying across Garen's body.
Garen had impeccable physical fitness. Moreover, he was more well-proportioned and muscular compared to the average Dragon Whelp. This was a strong but also beautiful combination. It was no wonder Leona was gazing at him so fervently.
Boris and Leona who were beside him had spoken a few times. However, it seemed completely ineffective because it could not prevent her unabashed gaze. He was forced to give up helplessly. Meanwhile, his own gaze that was lingering on Garen became even more unsatisfied.
Garen could not be bothered with these bratty childish matters. He was currently lowering his head and looking down at the vast terrain below.
The pitch-black mountain range rose and fell from higher to lower altitudes continuously. Spots of bright white light that were swaying here and there could be seen occasionally. They floated around endlessly but no one knew what they were.
Drawn-out wolf howls could also be heard now and then from afar.
The group of dragons flew forward for over half an hour. Soon, they could see faint vortex-like phosphorescence that was blinking on one of the higher mountain peaks in front of them. The green phosphorescence formed a gigantic vortex that was spinning on the side of the mountain peak slowly. Under the illumination of the purple moon, it gave off a dreamlike sense of beauty.
”What's that?” asked Saszt softly while flying in front.
”That's the Thunder Snake Clan,” answered Boris instantly.
”The Thunder Snake Clan, huh? I've heard my grandfather mention it before,” Leona nodded as well. ”They're a rare race of living creatures that depend on us for shelter to live. There were Manticores last time as well but it's unfortunate that they've all fled. Currently, there's only one Thunder Snake left.”
