Chapter 518: Chapter 298 Inside, There is a Spirit (This book has 1,000,000 words)_3
A giant dragon’s breath can incinerate a city, but most people have never seen another type of dragon breath, one that enables a dragon offspring to transform.
The snake people felt just a spring breeze brushing their faces, which made their entire bodies feel good. Before long, they started to feel itchy all over. They rushed to a pile of stones and started rubbing themselves against them. By nightfall, they began to shed their skin.
The snake people who shed their skin seemed as if they had been reborn. The upper part of their bodies that had been smoothly human-like, now sprouted small hard scales on the outsides of their arms, their waists, and their back, leaving only their chest and belly still smooth. With this change, their defensive power greatly increased.
They found small sharp horns growing out of their foreheads, and to their shock, they found they could sense water element, with a little practice, their flexibility in water would greatly increase.
Apart from this, their body size had also grown. Even though a snake person only shed its skin twice in its lifetime, Brucek’s breath had allowed them to shed their skin for the third time. If this isn’t a god, then what is?
After having demonstrated such powerful actions in his giant dragon form, Brucek turned back into his human form, providing medical treatment and medications as per Negris’s advice.
This was the easiest way to win over hearts. Watching their comrades cured from the excruciating pain under Brucek’s magic, their faith and devotion grew steadfast.
“Yo ho? So much food? Didn’t we steal all your food? Where do you get them from?” a voice suddenly broke in.
Looking around, they saw a large number of pirates clad in waterproof outfits emerging from the sea in the bay, quietly approaching, completely surrounding their camp.
The Black Night Raven slapped his leg, excitedly saying, “It’s the Canglong Pirate Group. Oh my, why am I so lucky.”
“Where is Black Night Raven? Who killed my vice-captain? Come out! What kind of sorcery did you use to summon the Gold Dragon? Hand over the magic artifact that you used for the summoning, or I will kill all your people!” shouted the pirate in the lead, who seemed to be the Captain of Azure Dragon.
Black Night Raven suddenly understood, “So he thought that you were summoned by me, Lord Brooks?”
Inside his human guise, Brucek’s eyes flickered, “Let’s just play along, take something and show it to him, and then call out my name.”
Nodding enthusiastically, Black Night Raven picked up a random stone from the ground, rushed forward and shouted, “So you’re the Captain of Azure Dragon? You know I can summon a Gold Dragon, so why did you dare to come to me? Don’t you fear death? Look at this! This is the Dragon God Stone!”
The Captain of Azure Dragon was taken aback by the insignificant-looking stone in Black Night Raven’s hand, that had neither luster nor any magical fluctuation. After a moment’s pause, he burst out laughing, “You want to deceive me with a lousy stone? Hand over the magical artifact, or I will kill everyone.”
“But this is it,” Black Night Raven brandished the stone in his hand. “Lord Brooks! In the name of the Dragon God, I call out your name. Come forth, Gold Dragon Brucek!”
Just as the Captain of Azure Dragon was about to laugh, he suddenly heard the dragon’s roar piercing the darkness, and a huge golden figure, highly visible even in the dark, pounced towards him.
Before being swallowed by the dragon breath, the only thought in the Captain of Azure Dragon’s mind was: the damned stone really does summon the Gold Dragon—
Early the next day, the Canglong Pirate Group, now under new leadership, hoisted Black Night Raven’s flag and set sail slowly towards Drake Island.
Black Night Raven stood on the bridge of the flagship, face beaming with happiness, “Why am I so lucky all the time? I’ll worship the Undead God from now on.”
Behind him, the former Canglong Pirates, now his men, were looking at the stone in Raven’s hand, their faces full of reverence.
With the movement of the pirate group, there began spreading a legend about the Divine Dragon Stone that summoned the Gold Dragon across the ocean.
Negris had no idea that their mere circumnavigation of the ocean would change the balance of power in the ocean. Regardless, she had no time to care about it right now, for upon their return to the Goddess of Beauty City, Katie came to them with a child in her arms.
“Isn’t that the dragonkin child that the Spring Breeze Druid adopted? What happened? Did he get into trouble? What’s he holding? Straw? A straw-made owl?” Negris asked with confusion.
Katie let out a bitter smile, “I have no idea what he has done either, but he has shaped them into these forms using clay. Little Bu, tell everyone. How did you do it?”
“Clay? Little Bu? Clay straw? What do you mean?” Negris was astounded.
Ange, who had been tilting his head watching the whole time, suddenly pointed to the straw owl, “Inside, there’s a spirit.”
