Bernardo is the name of the planet beneath Garros's feet.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAemr7qbCBid
On this planet, magical culture is highly developed, and every nation is sparing no effort in developing magical technology.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAtfJyq6b4iV
Highly advanced nations have even built interstellar spaceships using magic engines, acquiring resources from the Universe by exploring outer space and other planets.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAcOckpmRGsn
"Dragonkin are nearly the top-tier creatures, but in this world, they cannot be called invincible."
54Please respect copyright.PENANAomLqP73BU1
Garros blinked as he gazed at the Fake Moon in the sky.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAxDVmXshIBb
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAJ49pTt1v8q
Eventually, using a city as bait, Nausir trapped the Wings of Hurricane with a great magic formation.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAyqFKP3e7fm
The Fake Moon descended a beam of light that destroyed everything, killing the Wings of Hurricane.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAR79BaWxsqt
"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."
54Please respect copyright.PENANASe23OVBAcU
The Dragon Clan has many classifications.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAyRLxtMw1a2
For instance, the most common ones are the Chromatic Dragons, Metallic Dragons, and Gem Dragons, followed by the Ferrous Dragons.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAZZzEobYGWm
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANASHLLh8TxvG
"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."
54Please respect copyright.PENANAXQSSmL2RFE
He sat down by the lakeside.
54Please respect copyright.PENANA3hCnvNvqTo
The Young Dragon's tail was submerged in the water, swaying back and forth.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAHNWVriL517
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAvgPJ9ikXDg
"I should still train more and strengthen myself."
54Please respect copyright.PENANAo7Qztxws2J
"Only by becoming strong will I have more confidence when facing potential dangers in the future."
54Please respect copyright.PENANAhdVIRkhsxc
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAwDs42S6hoX
"First, set a small goal: live to be a hundred."
54Please respect copyright.PENANADJcJOE74lg
"Wait, Dragonkin only reach adulthood at a hundred; I'd better hope for a thousand-year lifespan."
54Please respect copyright.PENANA5e2LW5GgEa
Garros leaned backward.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAbi9SFbgQp8
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANA50XZv4GXKl
—Dragonkin can actually breathe underwater.
54Please respect copyright.PENANA41yupsxpou
Garros simply wanted to train his cardiopulmonary capacity and his affinity for the water element.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAnSWlsbbdMx
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAdmedjdRUee
Additionally, both Iron Dragons and Red Dragons are fire-attribute dragons and do not actually like water.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAN3SkzXC6AH
The hybrid Garros was the same—a definitive fire-attribute dragon.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAwIs227DHfG
Attacks with attributes like water or ice would deal double damage to him.
54Please respect copyright.PENANABvZiZF8l7T
The best way to overcome fear is to face it.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAHb8VyYANpP
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAgqPHrPZk9S
By now, his instinctive aversion to water had completely vanished.
54Please respect copyright.PENANA741sIlHSzN
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANADNzUdCQ0Bx
Suddenly.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAUzzGFXs6wi
A slight ripple in the water came from behind him.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAK24PAi5FSI
A dark shadow approached rapidly and launched an attack on Garros.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAz7sYh1rK2o
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANALfpY20ArKB
Boom!
54Please respect copyright.PENANAf9DeN6O8d7
A black dragon claw and a fiery Red Dragon claw collided, sending a shockwave through the water.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAZJt5WK5ugW
The fiery Red Dragon claw locked with Garros's, attempting a contest of strength.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAouNy3NjZrw
However.
54Please respect copyright.PENANArKQyuBAKhK
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANALu3CSDXl4n
The contest of strength was lost.
54Please respect copyright.PENANA9xpMGycrvO
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!"
54Please respect copyright.PENANAQkc2KCQl1v
Hatchling Samantha was Garros's biological Red Dragon Sister, a pure-blooded Red Dragon.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAbDJ3c6awqK
In the Dragon Clan, hybrids are rare because Dragonkin Bloodlines are overbearing and difficult to fuse.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAYzmIQh0Zk7
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANA5v1qHU36Dg
Slap!
54Please respect copyright.PENANAU06ZTSTFBy
Garros slapped the red Hatchling on the head with his claw.
54Please respect copyright.PENANA1YsH7pxZiT
"When dealing with a Dragonkin stronger than you, watch your tone and choice of words."
54Please respect copyright.PENANAFkl7BXPXFU
This slap sent the red Hatchling's head tilting sharply, nearly knocking her off balance; the force was not light.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAYIZG4QjiCf
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAu6W0WkwZZI
Red Dragon Sister hatched a year later than Garros.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAGX9nUfDBGL
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAX3QgYChrkV
As a result.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAoe5BB7Ub4G
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAFzVDnAExlj
After being rejected by Garros, the two actually used their claws to try and snatch all of Garros's food.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAW4DNysB8wm
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANA0cScHi50Yh
As a Hybrid Dragon, Garros was naturally stronger than an ordinary Red Dragon or Iron Dragon, not to mention he was a year older.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAaJXP2qBH6B
Meanwhile.
54Please respect copyright.PENANADW3HfMomMw
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAMnGi4EhIvW
Red Dragons worship violence and like to solve problems through force.
54Please respect copyright.PENANATptvAO41ml
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAK4LK8GHgQN
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAuyhCGgJ4tz
"My respected brother."
54Please respect copyright.PENANAugbcgVXyQb
Red Dragon Sister softened her tone and said, "Mother wants you to go to the dragon nest."
54Please respect copyright.PENANARNBLkqp9GD
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."
54Please respect copyright.PENANA2A5rRzxZVd
Red Dragon Sister was completely uncomfortable in the water, her dragon face filled with an expression of disgust.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAAptE3l8fWD
She wiggled her tail and waist, floating rapidly toward the surface and leaving the lake water ahead of Garros.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAJHGZHxPfnQ
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAApHQC4mq7w
The dragon nest—it was located on the cliff face of the eastern side of the sinkhole.
54Please respect copyright.PENANA007xvBdsku
From the outside, it looked like a simple and rugged cave.
54Please respect copyright.PENANA2ic1AWG7es
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAQiwFKDPntq
Garros folded his wings and walked with alternating limbs, stepping across the metallized floor as he went deeper inside.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAN3t7d4aogf
The deeper he went, the more metal there was around him.
54Please respect copyright.PENANA8WL3a3diQU
Clusters of metal bloomed like flowers on the stone walls, and some angular metal pillars protruded from the ground.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAOMlPMWxC4k
Finally, when Garros reached the deepest part of the cave, his vision suddenly opened up as he arrived in a massive 'hollow.'
54Please respect copyright.PENANA0wPT72IFXC
This core of the dragon nest was not a crude cavern in the traditional sense.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAGSEieBRQ9X
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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAOGmaZzf0qz
To the north stood a thirty-meter-high tiered metal platform, atop which was Iron Dragon Mother's exclusive throne.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAlNzP3rqWNy
—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.
54Please respect copyright.PENANAzA8RzJ4NyD
Garros looked up.
54Please respect copyright.PENANANFRH3NZVcx
On the throne was a behemoth twenty meters long, whose breath created air currents like howling gales—a true dragon.54Please respect copyright.PENANAibDwT98kym
