Waiting was a boring task, so Sarlin took the opportunity to learn more about the specific characteristics of the Thunder Dragon from the magicians on Serg Island.
Since the Thunder Dragon could release lightning, many sorcerers had set their eyes on this creature since a long time ago, hoping to capture one. However, this creature lived in the deep sea and was extremely difficult to find. The sorcerers on Seriger Island had not even recorded the mageweath of this magical beast.
The Thunder Dragon didn't have teeth, but its water magic could cut its prey. Its throat was similar to that of some magical beasts, full of barbs. When it swallowed, the Thunder Dragon's throat would squirm, producing enough power to crush its prey into meat paste.
The Thunder Dragon didn't have any scales, but its skin and muscles were the best defense. Someone had once shot a Thunder Dragon with a crossbow, but the result was that the arrowhead, which was covered with sawteeth, slid across the Thunder Dragon's skin.
That time, a Level Nine magician had encountered a Thunder Dragon on his way back to Serg Island. Under the control of the swordsman, the crossbow on the warship was very accurate. Unfortunately, the Thunder Dragon was very cunning. After discovering the Level Nine magician, it only ran away and did not engage the warship.
The magician retrieved the crossbow arrow, but found that the sawteeth of the arrowhead seemed to have been melted by the high temperature, and did not play any role at all.
Sarlin recalled the situation when he encountered the Thunder Dragon. His Water Slash spell had almost collapsed under the electric current released by the Thunder Dragon. If not for the fact that the water that Sarlin had refined had lightning attributes, he might have completely lost this water that already had life.
The Thunder Dragon was not sensitive to long-distance attacks, but in close range, its reaction speed was faster than the casting speed of the spell. With that strong electric current protecting its body, Sarlin could not think of any way to deal with this magical creature.
"Master, you guys rest, I'll just watch over here." Nelis took the initiative to say to Sarlin. She did not lack the patience to wait for her prey, but the idle waiting on the ship made her impatient.
Nelis's recovery ability was much stronger than Sarlin's, and Sarlin also wanted to recover from the damage to his body as soon as possible. Now that he had a lot of Magic Fluid, the main reason was that Serg Island had never lacked something with a healing effect that surpassed the Holy Water of the Holy Church. There were 33 High Mages on the island, and there used to be a 9th Rank High Mage who would produce a certain amount of Magic Liquid every day.
Jason was worried about Salin's safety, so he naturally asked Salin to carry more of these things, which were very common to the mages of Serrig Island.
The Bestowal Ring would extend the duration of the potion's effects. Seeing that the six Level 3 Mages were meditating, Salin drank the potion himself and used it to recover from his injuries. At the same time, Salin began to recall the battle.
Although Salin had only met the Thunder Dragon once, the golden magic patterns on its body were still fresh in his memory. The blue lightning formed by the magic patterns almost killed him. At that time, there was almost no light in the water, and Salin's cold vision was also affected by the high pressure. He could not remember the magic patterns on the Thunder Dragon's body completely.
However, Salin had remembered a part of it. He carefully recalled the magic patterns on Lei Long's body and the ones on his family's crest. After comparing them, Salin was disappointed to find that the two mageweaths had nothing in common.
It was said that a level-ten Magician could deduce the principle and release method of a spell after seeing it, but Salin didn't have that ability. He only saw the process of Lei Long releasing the electricity, but couldn't deduce how it did it.
The golden magic patterns on the Thunder Dragon's body seemed to be defensive, and did not have any offensive ability.
Salin recalled the reaction of his body after being hit by the electricity. At that time, he lost control of all his muscles, and even his heart temporarily stopped beating. Salin's body was completely used to this state, so he quickly recovered some of his functions and did not die from the Thunder Dragon's electric shock.
Moreover, after Salin's body was modified by Joey, it was like a perfect magic circle. The ability to self-repair and operate was something that other mages did not have.
In that short moment, Salin felt that he had died. The electric current was like a loach, drilling into his body without any pattern and destroying all his ability to resist. In that instant, even a Level 1 spell could have taken his life.
If his Water Cut had such an attribute, he would not have to worry about the enemy's defense. After the electric current hit, the water current could cut any enemy in half.
Salin studied the experience that the Thunder Dragon brought him. Neris's hand was in front of the magic image, and she stared at the three-dimensional image that appeared in the magic circle.
Demons were different from humans. They all had inherited memories. For example, even if Neris did not have any knowledge from her parents, she would still automatically obtain some memories from the demon's past when she grew up. Neris's bloodline was very unique and very pure. She did not lie to Salin. She was indeed a unique little demon.
The demon race was more complex than any other species. Neris's attack power was considered strong even in the Demonic Plane. However, her body was too weak compared to the Greater Demons, so she could only hunt for demonic insects to fill her stomach. The reason her race could survive was that under normal circumstances, no demons were willing to take the risk to catch them for food.
When Neris's race risked their lives, they could kill demons and even Greater Demons. If she had not left the Demonic Plane when she was still a minor and was not fully developed, she would not have to worry about not being able to deal with the Thunder Dragon now.
Those mages did not know the weakness of the Thunder Dragon. Neris only took a glance and grasped too much information.
There was almost no light in the more than 200 meters deep sea, and there was no other life here. The Coiled Turtle Alchemy Ship was submerged in a piece of rock, and it itself was like a huge rock. As the sky darkened, the bottom of the sea became dark, and there was no more light. The pattern in the magic image also became a strange black and white color.
Suddenly, a silver light lit up in the distance. Neris looked carefully and found that at the entrance of the cave, the Thunder Dragon came out and swam in the cave, seeming to be a little anxious. This guy might have realized the danger. If there were not eggs here, it was likely to move directly.
Magical beasts had a natural sensitivity to danger. Unless it was a magical beast below level 3, it did not need to have too high intelligence. Magical beasts would automatically avoid disasters. This was an ability that humans did not have.
Neris was very worried that this guy could take away her eggs. One of Neris's special abilities was to devour. However, this kind of devouring was conditional. The eggs of magical beasts were very easy for a little demon like her to absorb, decompose, and get the power contained in it.
Neris had absorbed the essence of the dragon's heart, but unfortunately, with her body, she still could not get the power of the dragon. If she could eat Tiago's egg, it would be different. After eating the dragon's egg, her power would be at least ten times higher than it was now, far beyond Shika.
If she ate the Thunder Dragon's egg, Neris could at least get the ability to defend against electric currents, or the ability to release electric currents. Either one was very important to Neris. The worst result was that she would get some abilities of water magic, so that she could release magic without the help of scrolls.
Neris could have eight different kinds of power, and each time she devoured, she could only get one of them. Now that she had digested and absorbed the essence of the dragon's heart, there were still seven kinds of power to absorb. For a little demon like her, if she could get eight kinds of power, she would have the capital to survive in the Demonic Plane. Otherwise, no matter how strong her physical attack ability was, it would be in vain. Some powerful Great Demons in the Demonic Plane would not care about the trouble of preying on dangerous creatures when they were old and weak.
Obtaining eight kinds of power was the strongest message left in Neris's bloodline. Little demons like her had a beautiful name in the Demonic Plane – Lologalo, which meant demon elf in the Demonic Language.
This information was gradually obtained after Neris reached adulthood. If she was already an adult when Salin met her, even if Salin was stronger than her, she might not give in. Not to mention that Salin was only a level one magician at that time, he was not even comparable to a demonic worm in the Demonic Plane.
After Neris followed Salin, before she reached adulthood, she relied on instinct to devour some things. There was no way for her to evolve, and she could not really get any power. Now that she understood her own ability, she would not be interested in ordinary things at all. This Thunder Dragon's ability was what Neris wanted the most.
Neris stared at the Thunder Dragon patrolling at the cave entrance, like Shika looking at food. If this Thunder Dragon did not release electricity, Neris's nails and teeth could easily tear open the Thunder Dragon's skin, muscles, and even bones.
At this time, Salin held his family badge in his hand and persevered to penetrate it with his perception. He was careful enough and only used a small part of his spiritual power. This time, a trace of his spiritual power finally entered the badge and began to touch the secrets in the badge.
The huge elemental power in the badge made Salin feel like his spiritual power was solidified with magic, and it was abnormally slow. He felt that the world in the badge was chaotic, and he could not tell anything at all. The only familiar thing was that the power of thunder and lightning was being nurtured, and it could explode at any time.
It seemed that the collision between the elements created the power of thunder and lightning. If this was the case, this seventh kind of power was also derived magic, and not an independent element.
This kind of derived magic was more difficult to learn than independent magic, and it required a deep understanding of all the involved fields. But that Thunder Dragon was obviously not an intelligent life, so how could it master such complicated things?
