Chapter 98: Chapter 97: Tier Nine Sub-dragons All Appear, The Red Dragon’s Shock

A Tier Nine Mountain Range Earth Dragon?

Its Body Type was so enormous it resembled a small mountain.

The moment he saw the behemoth on the mountaintop, Lince instantly processed the information.

At the same time, Lince saw more than ten High Tier Magical Beasts beside the behemoth, and over a hundred Tier Six Demon Beasts gathered around them. A shiver ran down his spine.

He had really walked right into a den of Demon Beasts this time.

Lince felt he had to be extremely careful with his words and actions now.

He couldn’t afford to speak carelessly about things he didn’t understand; the best strategy was to play dumb.

That would be far better than letting the Earth Dragon find any holes in his story.

So, led by the Tier Seven Flying Demon Beast and watched by the numerous Demon Beasts flying around them, Lince quickly approached the Mountain Range Earth Dragon.

Meanwhile, as Lince drew closer, the enormous Mountain Range Earth Dragon actually moved, right under the watchful eyes of the surrounding High Tier Magical Beasts!

Although the Mountain Range Earth Dragon had only stood up suddenly, this alone was enough to utterly astonish the group of High Tier Magical Beasts?!

They looked toward the approaching Rock Steel Giant, most of them wearing thoughtful expressions.

’To have garnered the attention of the Mountain Range Earth Dragon, this wandering Dragon Species that’s just arrived must have an extraordinary Bloodline!’

Although this Mountain Range Earth Dragon wasn’t the strongest authority in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, in an age where no Saint Tiers appeared, it was still one of the eleven Beast Masters.

And perhaps due to its extreme longevity, the other Beast Masters all treated this Mountain Range Earth Dragon with a certain degree of respect.

Its age was incalculable, and it had seen far too much.

Logically speaking, there should be nothing left in the world capable of piquing its interest.

But, for such an ancient and long-lived Sub-dragon to seem so excited about the return of a wandering Dragon Species?!

This...???

The High Tier Magical Beasts exchanged glances, but as their eyes turned to the fast-approaching Rock Steel Giant in the distance, a hint of solemnity inexplicably appeared in their expressions.

And just as Lince was about a thousand meters from the mountaintop, an ancient, serene voice suddenly resounded in his mind.

"Child, good child, come quickly! Come over here!"

The voice carried a sense of urgency, and within it, a suppressed but immense excitement. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Lince was taken aback. He looked toward the source of the voice—the Mountain Range Earth Dragon that now stood like a small mountain.

A faint guess began to form in his mind.

Therefore, suppressing the apprehension in his heart, he quickly dived and landed in front of the Mountain Range Sub-dragon’s head.

"Nigredo, I greet you, elder of the Dragon Race."

Lince didn’t know how to address the Sub-dragon before him, so he could only offer this formal greeting.

At this moment, the Mountain Range Sub-dragon’s entire head had already extended, drawing close to Lince’s side.

He didn’t even have time to answer Lince, merely studying his appearance from side to side with an agitated and indescribable expression.

In response, Lince’s heart pounded with unprecedented intensity.

It was the kind of feeling as if he would be swallowed whole by this giant Earth Dragon in the very next moment.

Lince was already on high alert, ready to use the Power of Space to escape immediately at the slightest hint of trouble.

However, just as Lince was on maximum alert, suddenly, the massive Mountain Range Sub-dragon pulled back his head from his inspection of Lince’s appearance.

Now, when he looked at Lince again, his gaze had suddenly become much softer.

There was even a trace of ineffable emotion in his eyes.

"ROAR!!!"

The next moment, under the gazes of numerous Middle-High Tier Magical Beasts and the confused stares of a group of Little Sub-dragons, this ancient elder of the Dragon Species let out a sudden roar.

The tremendous roar carried no fluctuation of Magic Power; it was just a simple cry.

After the roar, what followed was peal after peal of joyous laughter.

"Good!!!"

"Wonderful!!!"

"What a good child!!!"

The Mountain Range Earth Dragon looked at Lince and suddenly beckoned him to come closer.

"Come, good child! Come onto my back!"

"I’ve already notified Crimson to come over. When she arrives, I’m sure she’ll be very, very happy!!"

"From now on, don’t go anywhere else. Come back to the mountains with us. Whatever you want, whatever you need to eat, this old man will definitely get it for you."

"Come, good child, quickly, onto this old man’s back."

The Mountain Range Earth Dragon’s gaze toward Lince had become even more benevolent.

It was the doting look one gives to a younger generation, a look so intense it was almost tangible.

At the same time, when speaking to Lince, he did his best to control the volume of his voice.

It was a cautiousness born from the fear of frightening Lince.

It was as if he were afraid Lince would break if held too tight, or melt if held too close.

Seeing this, Lince finally understood the reason for it all.

He also knew that he had passed the first trial, so to speak.

And all of this, without a doubt, was due to the effect of his Pure-blooded Dragon Clan Bloodline.

But in the end, Lince had initially been worried about the potential dangers his pure blood might bring.

He didn’t know if the Mountain Range Sub-dragon would choose to devour him for the sake of his Bloodline.

But now, it seemed that things hadn’t taken the most extreme turn after all.

Therefore, upon hearing the Mountain Range Earth Dragon’s call, Lince complied, quickly folding his wings and landing on the massive dragon’s broad back.

And at that moment, Lince noticed that several of the surrounding Sub-dragons were looking at him with eyes full of jealousy and envy.

As for the non-Sub-dragon Middle-High Tier Magical Beasts, they were all completely silent.

But one could roughly guess that their minds were in turmoil.

A wandering Dragon Species who wasn’t even the Earth Dragon’s own offspring was receiving such immense favor.

The story behind this was perhaps far bigger than they had imagined.

"Elder?"

Lince wanted to ask about everything.

Only then could he truly feel at ease.

However, just as he spoke, the Mountain Range Earth Dragon interrupted him.

"No, child, you don’t need to call me ’Elder’."

"You can call me ’old man,’ or even just ’Amos’."

"This old man is not worthy of being called ’Elder’ by you."

The Mountain Range Earth Dragon’s voice came instantly. At the same time, he stretched his neck, turning his head to look at the Rock Steel Giant on his back, and continued speaking with a loving gaze.

"Child, I know you have many questions."

"But, doesn’t this old man have even more questions than you?"

"Let’s wait. Once Crimson arrives, we can have a proper chat."

However, a moment after the Mountain Range Earth Dragon said this, a dragon’s roar suddenly erupted from the other side of the Demon Beast Mountain Range’s Outer Mountain.

And there, in the distant clouds, the massive silhouette of a Red Dragon was faintly visible.

Its speed was unimaginably fast.

"It seems that fellow Crimson is no better off than this old timer!"

"Haha, look, isn’t she here now?"

The Mountain Range Sub-dragon chuckled as he looked at the figure that had appeared in the distance.

Lince, however, appeared thoughtful.

But, while Lince was silent, a clear female voice drifted from the distant horizon.

"Amos, you old coot, you sure know how to pick your moments."

"You’d better not be lying to me! Otherwise, hmph!"

The massive figure of the Red Dragon drew closer and closer.

Soon, like a phantom, the Red Dragon was less than one or two kilometers away from them.

By now, the Red Dragon had clearly seen the form of Lince, the Rock Steel Giant.

The moment her eyes fell upon the Rock Steel Giant, they instantly revealed a look of disbelief and impatience.

Her expression was almost identical to the Mountain Range Earth Dragon’s from before.

"Old man!!!"

"You’ve really given me—no, given the entire Dragon Race a huge surprise!"

"But, you old coot, I’m afraid you’ve lived for so long that your brain has turned to mush!"

The Red Dragon’s eyes were filled with urgency, but as she arrived, she glanced at the surrounding Demon Beasts and snorted coldly!

"All of you, get off this mountain!"

"No one is to come up here without my permission!!!"

At the Red Dragon’s angry snort, the surrounding Demon Beasts all froze!

Then, one by one, without daring to utter a single word, they immediately sped off toward the foot of the Outer Mountain, whether by running or flying.

In short, every last one of them left the mountaintop as fast as they could, terrified of angering this mercurial Red Dragon.

As for the other six Sub-dragons nearby, they just looked bewildered.

One High Tier, three Middle Tier, and two Low Tier. The Red Dragon glanced at them but didn’t drive them away.

"Crimson, what is the meaning of this?"

The Mountain Range Earth Dragon frowned slightly.

The Red Dragon just snorted coldly!

"A true Pure-blooded Giant Dragon has appeared in this world again. Don’t you understand the stakes involved, you old fool?!"

"Do I have to be the one to remind you? It seems you’ve really gone senile, or maybe you just overslept and your brain is still fuzzy!"

"Setting aside everything else, what do you think those other fellows in the Demon Beast Mountain Range will think when they learn a Pure-blooded Giant Dragon has been born?"

"Forget them—the Human Race, the Elves, the Sea Race... none of them will want to see this little one grow up."

"Amos, you’re trying to get this child killed!"

The Mountain Range Earth Dragon froze, and then realization instantly dawned on his draconic face!

At this point, the Red Dragon paid the Mountain Range Earth Dragon no more mind. Instead, she reached out with her ’tiny’ forelimbs and scooped up the still-dazed Rock Steel Giant!

"Oh, you good child!"

"This pure Bloodline... it smells so comforting. It’s like I can clearly remember the days when the Dragon Mother was still here!"

The Red Dragon’s expression was filled with joy. She held the Rock Steel Giant in an awkward embrace and, without another word, pressed her face against his, rubbing it back and forth frantically!

"The aura of a Steel Dragon, there’s no mistake!"

"Hm? Wait a minute..."

The Red Dragon’s expression suddenly froze, and her eyes met the Rock Steel Giant’s.

The next moment, her expression turned to one of confusion as she began to earnestly sniff Lince’s scent with her nose.

"What’s going on? Why do I also smell the scent of a Cyan Dragon?"

"No, no! There’s even... Space?"

"Space???!!!"

The Red Dragon was completely stunned!

At the same time, as if startled, she let go of the Rock Steel Giant she was holding!

Her gaze toward the Rock Steel Giant was now filled with unprecedented shock and a hint of panic.

"You little one, what in the world are you???"

And at this moment, the Mountain Range Earth Dragon, who had just been wondering if he’d truly gone senile, looked up in astonishment.

"What!!!"

"Space??? Crimson? Are you sure you’re not joking!!!"
