Bernardo is the name of the planet beneath Garros's feet.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAwuEaJ8wRrm
On this planet, magical culture is highly developed, and every nation is sparing no effort in developing magical technology.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAZwCd7z0PU1
Highly advanced nations have even built interstellar spaceships using magic engines, acquiring resources from the Universe by exploring outer space and other planets.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAqtFTnXD6bI
"Dragonkin are nearly the top-tier creatures, but in this world, they cannot be called invincible."
51Please respect copyright.PENANAqHboo5do0Y
Garros blinked as he gazed at the Fake Moon in the sky.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAidS6GpYewy
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAEO3hZtJNM6
Eventually, using a city as bait, Nausir trapped the Wings of Hurricane with a great magic formation.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAxExtkjvxIh
The Fake Moon descended a beam of light that destroyed everything, killing the Wings of Hurricane.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAmyjremo4j0
"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."
51Please respect copyright.PENANA6m7E10uNgz
The Dragon Clan has many classifications.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAsTe3AmebA5
For instance, the most common ones are the Chromatic Dragons, Metallic Dragons, and Gem Dragons, followed by the Ferrous Dragons.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAdBtBTpncFS
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA0Uozc3Vcxm
"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."
51Please respect copyright.PENANA9HgnygVhGR
He sat down by the lakeside.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAlD5cPkjreK
The Young Dragon's tail was submerged in the water, swaying back and forth.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAgMjP58W7p1
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA6pVYySxO5x
"I should still train more and strengthen myself."
51Please respect copyright.PENANAWhLOCH6lXA
"Only by becoming strong will I have more confidence when facing potential dangers in the future."
51Please respect copyright.PENANA7otk9kNhMM
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4MlIySUpj
"First, set a small goal: live to be a hundred."
51Please respect copyright.PENANAx9g8VEj2JV
"Wait, Dragonkin only reach adulthood at a hundred; I'd better hope for a thousand-year lifespan."
51Please respect copyright.PENANAcVOkT8Qzbk
Garros leaned backward.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAhaWB37x0rW
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANATj9RH5dqIZ
—Dragonkin can actually breathe underwater.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAmXNvfdgb2z
Garros simply wanted to train his cardiopulmonary capacity and his affinity for the water element.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAt6JWCXwYMp
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA4gstXRboQ1
Additionally, both Iron Dragons and Red Dragons are fire-attribute dragons and do not actually like water.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAJAYXG15dia
The hybrid Garros was the same—a definitive fire-attribute dragon.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAGAPXBt5mo5
Attacks with attributes like water or ice would deal double damage to him.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAVC7kUHW7qm
The best way to overcome fear is to face it.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAQcoBcuZp7s
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAvvymtFRUPg
By now, his instinctive aversion to water had completely vanished.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAzpaDAvwysG
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANArfnElKG2Ig
Suddenly.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAresbHYywjv
A slight ripple in the water came from behind him.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAnL2LtxVwLa
A dark shadow approached rapidly and launched an attack on Garros.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAXkH9uX8BWU
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAhmLlwvYBiN
Boom!
51Please respect copyright.PENANAIvVji7e4Sh
A black dragon claw and a fiery Red Dragon claw collided, sending a shockwave through the water.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAYeNcG8ePQ3
The fiery Red Dragon claw locked with Garros's, attempting a contest of strength.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAuYtElbKrpe
However.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA5OxaPgn34k
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANANz9TxyYcLP
The contest of strength was lost.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA0bQA8yl4xe
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!"
51Please respect copyright.PENANAJigyiuRGyT
Hatchling Samantha was Garros's biological Red Dragon Sister, a pure-blooded Red Dragon.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAJbu5H5JZq6
In the Dragon Clan, hybrids are rare because Dragonkin Bloodlines are overbearing and difficult to fuse.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAyL9T3Qc3c2
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAmIFpzwFTrv
Slap!
51Please respect copyright.PENANAUDvNz04EuG
Garros slapped the red Hatchling on the head with his claw.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAnQPE4LUv63
"When dealing with a Dragonkin stronger than you, watch your tone and choice of words."
51Please respect copyright.PENANA3o56Y1aVYh
This slap sent the red Hatchling's head tilting sharply, nearly knocking her off balance; the force was not light.
51Please respect copyright.PENANARdSBBonKoJ
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA8dBNu9AHeu
Red Dragon Sister hatched a year later than Garros.
51Please respect copyright.PENANArpI7aFzPjh
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAGzzZOtDH1O
As a result.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAM9t0rLTMXl
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAwx3jfslHPL
After being rejected by Garros, the two actually used their claws to try and snatch all of Garros's food.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5k3sifPjs
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAjufJl0CQW8
As a Hybrid Dragon, Garros was naturally stronger than an ordinary Red Dragon or Iron Dragon, not to mention he was a year older.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAP1EfXiAZYR
Meanwhile.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAhtPzBrpBKz
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAkgyWhaTeIV
Red Dragons worship violence and like to solve problems through force.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAmo82TI8f4e
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAIQMi8qtg4R
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANArvnuxY4ost
"My respected brother."
51Please respect copyright.PENANAbvozYUXnIi
Red Dragon Sister softened her tone and said, "Mother wants you to go to the dragon nest."
51Please respect copyright.PENANAY8wLHU8JYt
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."
51Please respect copyright.PENANAh2yoeKBM6t
Red Dragon Sister was completely uncomfortable in the water, her dragon face filled with an expression of disgust.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAXCxDqV3Cqt
She wiggled her tail and waist, floating rapidly toward the surface and leaving the lake water ahead of Garros.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAylhh5KPBGE
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAv66Pg35msn
The dragon nest—it was located on the cliff face of the eastern side of the sinkhole.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAtZgMtynrNB
From the outside, it looked like a simple and rugged cave.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAaTfhQziKZH
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAPGFIhCNEYO
Garros folded his wings and walked with alternating limbs, stepping across the metallized floor as he went deeper inside.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAxYx5MfluXx
The deeper he went, the more metal there was around him.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAHNyOo1FTQA
Clusters of metal bloomed like flowers on the stone walls, and some angular metal pillars protruded from the ground.
51Please respect copyright.PENANA5UwuPfo1C2
Finally, when Garros reached the deepest part of the cave, his vision suddenly opened up as he arrived in a massive 'hollow.'
51Please respect copyright.PENANAyw5q9s6bZN
This core of the dragon nest was not a crude cavern in the traditional sense.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAed7t2tRQmC
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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAmi5Wlex7Nb
To the north stood a thirty-meter-high tiered metal platform, atop which was Iron Dragon Mother's exclusive throne.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAq0WrcoF7Kf
—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.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAnXZirMF6Jf
Garros looked up.
51Please respect copyright.PENANAQfxdz9zGeA
On the throne was a behemoth twenty meters long, whose breath created air currents like howling gales—a true dragon.51Please respect copyright.PENANAAcuYiQhMgk
