Evil dragon has a warm heart-Chapter 147 - 146 Stare of the Gloomy Dreamland
Chapter 147: Chapter 146 Stare of the Gloomy Dreamland
Chapter 147 -146 Stare of the Gloomy Dreamland
“Vivie was the only Great Elf of the Rainflower Family, wasn’t she?” Russell pondered in bed at night.
Elves were categorized into two types.
One type was plant-based elves, and the other was mushroom-based elves.
Within the mushroom-based elves, fungal cordyceps nurture mushroom insects, which can evolve into mushroom birds, and mushroom birds are the final evolutionary stage for mushroom elves.
In plant-based elves, plant cordyceps give birth to Spirit Insects, which can evolve into Little Sprites. Little Sprites can further evolve into Great Elves, beings with spirit and intelligence able to speak.
However, evolving into a Great Elf was incredibly difficult, and in the entire Shadowflame Grand Duchy, the number of Great Elves was even scarcer than Bipedal Flying Dragons.
But once you have a Great Elf, it means the family will continuously have a stream of Spirit Insects and Little Sprites being born.
The theoretical lifespan of a Great Elf is two to three hundred years, enough to shelter a family for several generations, up to a dozen or more.
This is also why Lady Meryl, when she married into the family, was given a Rainflower Little Sprite as a dowry by Count Merlin—the Rainflower Family wasn’t short of Little Sprites. With Lady Vivie around, countless Rainflower Little Sprites would be born.
“Such a magical and beautiful creature… Its manner of speaking was just like a small child’s, and it was so pretty and adorable!”
Russell lay in bed, lost in thought.
Of course, it wasn’t that kind of thought. He just really wanted to own a Great Elf. As a collectible, it would be more perfect than any figurine.
“It’s a pity Ice Cream probably won’t show up tonight, otherwise I could have admired what Lady Vivie looks like in Gloomy Dreamland.” In Gloomy Dreamland, the most impressive display of Magic Light was undoubtedly the Bipedal Flying Dragon.
Every time Russell stayed at Fluorescent Castle, he could see Mr. Ross in Gloomy Dreamland at night, looking like flames burning brightly.
Clear flame patterns outlined a sense of mysterious power.
Just one glance seemed to allow one to comprehend the deeper mysteries of magic power and to peek into the essence of the world’s working rules.
The Magic Light of the Little Sprite was also incredibly dazzling. Russell had studied the mushroom bird Rosy many times, familiarizing himself with every single bit of Magic Light on it—a brilliant green and captivating rhythm.
To this day, he had yet to see the Magic Light of a Great Elf.
“Too bad, I can’t witness it tonight… Well, I’ll be able to in a few days.” He was going to stay here for a month.
With that thought, he boredly pulled out an Ice Pellet Pearl from his pocket.
Since his family had invested a thousand Gold Coins in him, Russell had no longer scrimped on Ice Pellet Pearls, feeding a couple every night to the Little Dream Dragon.
Even when away from home, he brought Ice Pellet Pearls with him.
Flipping the Ice Pellet Pearl, Russell gripped it in his left hand, preparing to undress and go to sleep, but suddenly his palm began to heat up intensely.
Opening his hand, he saw an M-shaped mark burning brightly.
At the same time, the Ice Pellet Pearl in his palm began to melt like ice and slowly seeped into the flame of the burning M-shaped mark.
In the blink of an eye, the Ice Pellet Pearl disappeared without a trace.
“What the…”
Before Russell could ponder what was happening, a blurry sensation came over him, and soon he slowly closed his eyes.
When he opened them again, the whole room had changed.
His field of view was no longer that of his bedroom lit by gem lamps, as bright as day, but instead a room outlined by dim lines and adorned with the twinkling Magic Light after the advent of the Gloomy Dreamland.
The magic light from the gem lamps, the glow of the Ice Pellet Pearls in his clothes’ pockets, and his Green Ceramic Sword, all flickered with magic lights.
Russell quickly got out of bed, grabbed the Green Ceramic Sword that had been placed in front of his bedside table, and could even see his own hands outlined by dim lines. However, within his arms, there was a faint glow of magic light.
That was his Battle Qi.
“Cool,” Russell sighed lightly.
In the true Gloomy Dreamland, he was just a cartoonish child figure and couldn’t touch the physical entities of the real world.

But at this moment, his body was like an Ordinary Knight’s, and he could also touch objects in the real world at will.
Setting down the Green Ceramic Sword, Russell pushed open the door and stepped out into the corridor outside.
Where his vision reached, the world was sketched out of dim lines. That meant what he was seeing at that moment was exactly what he would see at night in the Gloomy Dreamland. The difference was that one was a dream, and the other was reality.
Russell then walked onto the gallery, from where one could overlook the entire Tributary River Mouth.
When he looked into the distance, Bluebird Castle, ready to sleep with its lights extinguished, seemed to come alive from another dimension.
Countless lights of magic power silently blossomed.
Although it was too far away to see clearly, Russell could still make out everything within the small surroundings of the castle, especially the Manganese Steel Dragon Mercedes perched on top of a nearby Arrow Tower, ablaze with bright red magic light, burning like flame.
Any Bipedal Flying Dragon, within the vision of the Gloomy Dreamland, displayed its power with flame-like patterns.
The other, Blue Crystal Dragon Medica Loren, was obscured by buildings, so Russell couldn’t see it.
But just this one glance was enough to show the prosperity of Bluebird Castle, with the sparkles of magic light blossoming everywhere.
“The real world and Gloomy Dreamland seem to have overlapped one another, this ability is just too cool!”
Russell couldn’t stop expressing his admiration.
However, the next moment, the vision akin to that of Gloomy Dreamland instantly faded, and he was back to his normal vision of reality.
The Manganese Steel Dragon, ablaze like a flame, also disappeared into the darkness along with the fading vision of Gloomy Dreamland, becoming invisible once more.
“Phew… This ability fades a bit too fast,” Russell shook his head and chuckled. After the Ice Pellet Pearl was burned by the M-shaped mark, the vision similar to that of Gloomy Dreamland lasted only about a minute, barely enough for a quick look.
Russell returned to his room and lay down again.
He took out another Ice Pellet Pearl from his pocket, about to hold it in the palm of his left hand, then thought better of it and put it down.
“One Ice Pellet Pearl is worth one Gold Coin, just for the experience of this one minute of… superpower, it’s a bit costly.”
And this Ice Pellet Pearl didn’t help Little Dream Dragon grow.
According to the information fed back by Little Dream Dragon from the M-shaped mark just now, Russell knew that this was a new ability developed by Little Dream Dragon after the branching of its horns.
As long as he consumed an Ice Pellet Pearl, he could bring the vision of Gloomy Dreamland upon himself.
In other words, this ability was triggered by using Ice Pellet Pearls, and Little Dream Dragon merely served as an intermediary, an unpaid one at that. The stronger the energy of the Ice Pellet Pearl, the longer the vision of Gloomy Dreamland would last.
“Regardless, this is a powerful superpower!” Despite being reluctant to waste another Ice Pellet Pearl, Russell also recognized the value of such an ability.
After pondering for a moment, he muttered to himself, “Let’s call it… Gaze of the Dark Dream.”
The M-shaped mark on his palm briefly lit up as if Little Dream Dragon, which had been busy digesting the Ice Soul Pearl, took a moment to respond to Russell.
