Chapter 282

"Hmm?"

In a cave where the air was relatively dry and stuffy, Ai Yi, who was sleeping on a huge rock that had obviously been calcined, suddenly opened her eyes and looked in a direction in astonishment.

"This is …?"

Ai Yi rubbed her eyes and got up. She stared in that direction with a face full of surprise and delight.

She felt a magic power unique to the dragon race burning and rising like a flame.

Moreover, this magical power was very powerful.

"There's actually such a powerful dragon living in this place?"

Ai Yi was indeed surprised.

However, beside this dragon's magical power, her own magical power also seemed to be there.

Ai Yi was the one who had placed the magic on someone.

Since it appeared there, it proved that that person was there.

"What is he doing there?"

Ai Yi was suspicious, but she did not think too much about it.

"Let's go take a look."

With that thought, a pair of dragon wings spread out behind Ai Yi's back, causing her to turn into a stream of light and fly away.

… …

At the same time, on a mountain path, a group of nobles led by Vasco and a large number of knights and guards were also hurrying in that direction.

Their goal was very clear: to find that black dragon and redo the magic refining ritual.

"Roar …"

At this moment, a faint roar could be heard by everyone.

"Listen!"

"We can already hear the dragon's roar!"

"Looks like we've caught up!"

The group of nobles immediately became excited and their spirits were lifted.

Only Vasco stopped in his tracks and listened to the roar, his brows tightly knitted.

For some reason, he felt that the dragon's roar seemed to be a little different from before.

Previously, the dragon's roar was filled with pain, struggle, and violence, like a dying struggle, like a candle in the wind, giving people the feeling that it was one or two steps away from eternal damnation.

But this time, the roar was filled with excitement, agitation, and disdain. It was as if the roar had been reborn, and it made people feel as if the roar had been reborn.

This gave Vasco a somewhat ominous premonition.

"Did something happen?"

Vasco's frown deepened.

But now that things had come to this, it was already impossible to retreat.

"Go! Chase after it! "

Thus, Vasco's eyes hardened, and while giving the order, he led everyone and hurried on.

… …

No one knew that at this moment, in the place where the dragon's roar shook the sky, a person and a dragon were already facing each other.

Shien had already come down from the black dragon's back and stood opposite it. He raised his head and looked at the dragon, his eyes flickering slightly.

"— —" After the excited and emotional roar, the black dragon propped up its huge body and lowered its eyes, staring at the tiny human standing in front of it. Its pair of dragon eyes were clear and cold.

"— —"

A tense atmosphere immediately filled the air between the man and the dragon.

Especially the Black Dragon, whose body had already released a faint draconic aura.

Even a LV90 player would find it difficult to breathe when faced with this Dragon's Might. Their heartstrings would be taut, and their foreheads would be covered in sweat. They wouldn't dare to act recklessly, right?

One had to know that standing there was a dragon of level 99.

"Dragon is the king.

Compared to other magical beasts, dragons had a lot of natural advantages.

Their dragon breath could break through all defenses, and almost no one could resist it.

Their scales were abnormally hard and could not be broken by ordinary means.

Their claws and teeth were like the sharpest weapons, able to crush mountains and cut the earth. In this world, magical weapons made from dragon teeth and dragon claws were definitely rare items of the highest level.

In this way, their entire body was a treasure trove, a synonym for power.

Generally speaking, a dragon would naturally reach level 80 and above when it reached adulthood. Before it reached adulthood, even if it did not absorb mana, its level would continue to increase over time.

Therefore, once a dragon reached adulthood, it would definitely reach level 80. With the power of dragon breath, even a group of ten thousand knights would not be able to take it down.

This was also the reason why this black dragon could occupy the large mana source of the Adol Canyon for 400 years.

With such a high level and a dragon species, if it were to fight back, even someone like Alidia would be in danger.

That was why the Black Dragon had been given up on subjugating it and had been occupying the Mana Spring of this place.

Now, it was a blessing in disguise. Its level had risen to 99, and it was only one step away from the maximum level. Even if Alidia were here, he would probably have no choice but to temporarily hide from such a dragon.

And now, it was standing in front of Shien, staring at him with its cold dragon eyes. The pressure it brought was definitely terrifying.

But in the face of such a scene, Sean stood straight and looked over. He stared fixedly at the black dragon with a faint smile on his face.

Clang …

In Shien's hand, the holy sword that had yet to be resealed glowed.

A hero wielding a holy sword facing an almost invincible dragon. This scene was enough to be recorded in history as an epic scene.

This scene lasted for an unknown period of time.

It was only at a certain moment that the black dragon moved.

Roar!

With a roar, a look of satisfaction and joy finally appeared in the Black Dragon's cold eyes.

It knew that the human in front of it had saved it.

It also knew that Lin Li had mastered a very high-level skill, [Taming]. The mana that he infused into its body was still memorable, and it naturally developed a sense of dependence and closeness to him.

However, it was impossible for him to make it submit just like that.

It was a dragon, an invincible king of monsters that was close to the maximum level. It was impossible to make it submit without the corresponding qualifications!

Even if the mana that was infused into its body was so comfortable, so delicious, and could make it stronger, if the other party was a weak and cowardly person, the black dragon would not acknowledge him.

This was the dignity of a dragon, and the most basic restraint of the king of monsters.

In fact, it was also because of this that very few dragons had been tamed since ancient times. Even the Wyverns, which only had some dragon blood in them, were very difficult to tame. If it wasn't for the assistance of the Master Tamer in Mithra Kingdom, it would have been impossible for him to tame so many Wyverns.

Under such circumstances, if this Black Dragon wasn't an ordinary dragon, but a Level 99 Invincible King of Magic Beasts, it would be even more impossible to tame.

Even if he had the [Taming] skill at the maximum level, it would still be the same.

But now, the black dragon acknowledged Shien.

This human who possessed strength that was not inferior to his own and was able to face him without fear was worthy of being his master.

And so, the black dragon finally lowered its head.

Seeing this scene, Shien smiled.

He shouted in his heart with great satisfaction.

"From today onwards, I am a dragon knight too!"
