"Your Royal Highness!"
Liszt, who was napping in the tent, had already woken up when Emily shouted. He was not a deep sleeper. So when the Knight came to call, he lifted the curtain of the tent and walked out. Instead of riding a dragon, he flew directly into the sky and turned into a meteor.
He landed among the remaining cannibal trees. With the Eye of Magic, he could see that the cannibal trees, which had no light of Magic Retroaction, were all flashing with a pale yellow magic light.
These cannibal trees were originally burrowing into the ground, but Emily detected them and directly used her thunder-attribute Battle Aura to bombard the ground, interfering with their movements, so they could not burrow down for a long time. However, Emily and the others did not dare to harm these cannibal trees at will, for fear of hurting the dragon elf.
That was why the situation was in a stalemate.
When Liszt arrived, he saw the cannibal trees desperately trying to burrow into the ground, but to no avail.
He moved a few steps and rushed to the side of a cannibal tree lying on the ground. He reached out and grabbed the soft trunk of the cannibal tree, then released the Firebird and quickly deterred all the cannibal trees. The pale yellow magic receded, and these cannibal trees quickly returned to their original state of growth.
"I've caught you, little fellow. Stop struggling and show yourself." The corner of Liszt's mouth curled into a smile. The inconspicuous man-eating tree in his hand was hiding a strong magical radiance. Obviously, it was the hiding place of the man-eating tree dragon.
Patter.
As if knowing that it could not escape, a large crystal clear elf jumped out of the cannibal tree. It had a human form, but its body was translucent. At first glance, it was impossible to tell whether it was more like a boy or a girl. In short, it had no gender characteristics.
The color of its body was pale yellow, about one meter tall, and its figure was slightly slender.
A pair of transparent wings flapped, allowing its feet to float above the ground. Its face had delicate features and big, dark eyes.
There was also a leaf on top of its head, and below the leaf were several fibrous roots.
"Jiribilawadacia!" The man-eating tree dragon elf trembled slightly in the face of Liszt, who was overflowing with Dragon Might, but it still bravely shouted at Liszt.
This was a language he had never heard of before. It was somewhat similar to the language of the moon, but not quite, because there was no pattern to it.
It was probably a meaningless shout.
"Stop shouting, I don't understand. Come, let's contract it, and then we can communicate normally." Liszt reached out his hand, gesturing for the man-eating tree dragon elf to quickly contract it and not waste time.
"Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
The Dragon Spirits that were gradually taking on the shape of humans weren't as cute as the Lesser Elves and Greater Elves, but they were more beautiful than them. However, this slightly ferocious man-eating tree dragon elf did not seem to be easy to deal with. Even under the shroud of Dragon Might, it still dared to talk back.
"So, do you want jade powder? We have all kinds of flavors." Liszt took out a big bag of jade powder and held it in his hand.
"Eh …"
The man-eating tree dragon elf's eyes instantly lit up, but then it glared at Liszt. "Bilop Dawalihi!"
"After the contract, these are all yours. Little fellow, don't worry. You will definitely not be harmed by following me. The Moon Killer cannot harm you, and neither can the Flame Man. Because I am the master of this place, everything on this land belongs to me. "
"Desvidanya!"
"Your unwillingness to cooperate is putting me in a difficult position. You must know that I have even come up with a name for you. How about Twisted Dryad – Mao Kai? You don't like it? How about Earth Escaping Beast – Rexel? You don't like it either? Do you want to be called Jade Deity – Eon? From your expression, you don't like it? "
Liszt said three names in a row, and then said the fourth. "How about I call you Spear of Vengeance – Krista, or Carly for short … I won't allow you to refuse anymore, so I'll call you Carly. Carly, my patience is running out. Looks like I have to do it myself. "
Seeing that the man-eating tree dragon elf Carly was not cooperating, he could only step forward and reach out to grab her.
Under the powerful strength of the Dragon Knight, Carly couldn't struggle at all. Even if she wanted to release her innate magic, it was dispersed by Liszt's surging dragon's aura. She couldn't even circulate her magic power.
At the side.
Emily looked at Liszt quietly. She was very envious of the Dragon Knight's power. Although she had been promised by Liszt that she would be able to interact with the light emerald gemstone dragon Ethan when the time was right, she was currently only a normal Sky Knight. She was still far from becoming a perfected Sky Knight.
Of course, this was because she did not know what Liszt was planning.
Liszt did not care when Emily would be perfected. He only needed to leave a Spiritual Brand in Ethan's mind before letting Emily ride the dragon.
Given his relationship with Emily, the Spiritual Brand shouldn't make things too difficult for Emily.
This would greatly reduce the difficulty of Emily riding the dragon.
While she was slightly distracted, Liszt had already grabbed Carly and forced his finger into Carly's mouth.
After propping up Carly's chin a little, Carly's teeth bit his finger.
When the blood and teeth came into contact, a strange feeling lingered between him and Carly. This was the familiar power of the contract between the elves. But compared to the contracts between sprite worms, lesser sprites, and greater sprites, the power of the contract between the dragon elves seemed to be much weaker and less obvious.
"Uraki Brusta!" The dragon elf continued to shout.
At this time, Liszt had already understood its emotions – it was scolding Liszt for being too rough, and angrily denouncing that humans were bad people and needed to be killed.
"The power of the contract can no longer distort a very murderous dragon elf's view of the world. At most, it can reduce its perception of me from hatred to unfamiliarity … Greater sprites and lesser sprites are better. After the contract, they will directly become closest to me. Taming the dragon elf is a bit troublesome."
Over the next period of time, Liszt appeased Carly.
It was nothing more than the emotional exchange of the previous words, and then taking out a large bag of jade powder to tempt Carly, and finally eliminating Carly's unfamiliar attitude towards him. In addition, the power of the contract was faintly changing. Finally, when it was almost noon, Carly finally recognized Liszt.
She shouted Liszt's name: "Liszt …"
"Very good, Carly. Then from now on, bring your cordyceps and these man-eating trees to live in the plantation I've opened up." He had many questions about the dragon elf that he wanted to understand, but now was not the time to study it. Carly was still very vigilant.
It had indeed been injured by the moon killers.
According to the emotional exchange, its worm stalks had almost been cut off by the moon killers.
From then on, it began to retaliate against the moon killers. It slaughtered thousands of moon killers, caught them and buried them in the roots of the man-eating trees, and then absorbed the nutrients from them. The man-eating trees, beyond Liszt's expectation, actually had the ability to eat corpses. They could emit a smell that attracted dying animals.
When the animals fell under the tree, the roots, trunk, or even leaves would grow fibrous roots and plunge into the animal's body to absorb nutrients.
"A very interesting plant. Once Carly's guard is down, I'll carefully study the dragon sprites and the man-eating trees." Liszt thought to himself as he watched Carly quietly sitting in the tent eating jade powder.
No matter what kind of elf it was, the greatest value was still the crops they cultivated.
After eating a simple field lunch with ten dishes, he took a short rest. In the afternoon, he began to summon the magicians who had come to identify the ores. They identified the four ores that had been found, and the fifth ore that was found this morning.
"Your Highness, according to my identification, these five ores are — blackheart iron ore, bronze ore, galena ore, mercury ore with the outer layer of mercury, and titanium ore."
"Mercury ore and titanium ore?" Liszt was really surprised this time. "The magic metals that are not magic metals, mercury and titanium?"
Mercury was the only liquid metal at room temperature.
It was a very valuable magic material. Many magic circles and magic equipment needed mercury.
Titanium was also very valuable and was also known as "small mithril."
Because it had similar properties as mithril — light weight and hard material. If titanium was mixed into armor, the quality of ordinary iron armor could be directly increased by two to three levels.
Mercury dragon and titanium dragon were not found in the three kingdoms and vassal countries. A small amount of mercury and titanium were transported from other kingdoms in the Legendary Continent.
He didn't expect to find mercury and titanium mines on Blazing Island.
