Chapter 297: Chapter 266: A Great Change Approaches, the Legendary Returns!

"Solrog, first discuss your specific arrangements for them."

After finishing this sentence, the Red Iron Dragon slightly closed its dragon eyes, as if it were in a state of repose.

Iron Dragon Solrog gently nodded, then shifted his gaze to the young dragons and teenage dragons below.

He paused momentarily to choose his words carefully, then said in an unmistakable tone, "Dragon Valley has provided you with shelter and the necessities for survival, and accordingly, you must take on your responsibilities and serve the future of Dragon Valley."

He deliberately emphasized his tone, his gaze sweeping over each young dragon: "Do you all clearly understand this?"

Blue Dragon Heryam, Red Dragon Kahill, Green Dragon Ludwig, Black Dragon Seraphina.

Under the oppressive gaze of the Iron Dragon, the four young dragons successively nodded to indicate they understood.

"Very well, then I will get straight to the point."

Iron Dragon Solrog did not beat around the bush, he straightforwardly announced, "You must fight against your inherent laziness and complacency. According to the current development needs of Dragon Valley, you need to make a choice immediately, determining the first career path you will formally pursue."

His gaze first fell upon Black Dragon Seraphina and Green Dragon Ludwig.

"Black Dragon, naturally fond of playing with corpses and the power of death, is inherently skilled at dealing with the undead and the domain of death. In the Border Area, there is no lack of corpse resources; thus, the Necromancer path is the most fitting choice for you. Once you take on the role of Necromancer and achieve some degree of accomplishment in this path, an important task concerning the future of the tribe will be entrusted to you."

"Green Dragon, with an innate instinct to control and harness the power of nature, the Druid path allows you to draw strength from the vast natural world. In the future, you can play a crucial role in Dragon Valley’s agriculture and livestock breeding, adding an indispensable foundation, which is also the most suitable path for you. After successfully taking on the role, like Seraphina, you too will bear a critically important task."

The Dragon-forged Warrior transformation plan, Galos had already discussed with Solrog.

This could significantly enhance the foundation of the Molten Iron Tribe, which Solrog was very keen on, and optimizing Dragon Vein transformation necessitated research in life and soul.

The Natural Dragon and the Undead Dragon stepped onto the paths of Druid and Necromancer respectively.

They were both skilled in this aspect.

Regarding Iron Dragon Solrog’s arrangements, both the Black Young Dragon and the Green Young Dragon had no objections.

For short-lived species, choosing a career path is a monumental decision requiring repeated consideration and deep reflection, but for the Dragon Race, it is not as important, as with their long lifespans, they will eventually pursue multiple career paths.

Besides.

The paths of Necromancy and Druid are inherently suitable for Black Dragons and Green Dragons.

"As for the two of you."

Iron Dragon Solrog turned his gaze toward Blue Dragon Heryam and Red Dragon Kahill.

"Heryam, you need to fully utilize your innate storm talent, becoming a Storm Mage, master of thunder and hurricanes, wielding the ever-changing weather, which will be the best expression of your power. In the future, weather control and utilization in the complex and variable Border Area will be your sole responsibility."

"Kahill, your fierce fury can also be transformed into a source of power. Choose the ’Wild Dragon’ path full of primal wildness. The Molten Iron Tribe currently lacks a role that fully reflects the fierce and majestic nature of the Dragon Race, an ’Executioner’ that makes everyone dread. This position undoubtedly suits you to showcase your true nature."

Blue Dragon Heryam calmly nodded in acceptance.

While Red Dragon Kahill let out a suppressed low roar in excitement, his Dragon Eyes glimmering with enthusiasm.

Natural Dragon, Undead Dragon, Storm Dragon, Wild Dragon... This is both an urgent need based on Dragon Valley’s current development and an optimal choice based on different dragons’ innate talents.

"Druid, Necromancer, Storm."

"For these three paths, you only need normal meditation to pursue."

Solrog said, "However, to pursue the Wild Dragon path, you also need rage, fury, and frenzy." He turned to White Dragon Trish: "Besides guiding them in meditation, there’s also the task of helping Kahill quickly pursue his path, which is now your responsibility."

Hearing this, White Dragon Trish solemnly nodded her massive dragon head.

Immediately, she opened her massive mouth, giving the Red Dragon Kahill below a highly malicious and challenging smile.

This task is tailored to her sense of "fun."

After completing the initial arrangements for the career paths, Nurturer Trish led the four young dragons away from the solemn council hall of the Burning Steel Castle, back to the hardened training grounds outside, to continue her strict teaching and training.

"Before the flames of war truly ignite, they should all be able to progress smoothly into the adolescent dragon stage."

As the young dragons’ figures disappeared outside the gate, Iron Dragon Solrog turned his gaze back to the Red Iron Dragon on the Golden Throne, speaking with certainty: "By that time, they will become indispensable pillars of the Molten Iron Tribe."

The Molten Iron Tribe has long faced a serious shortage of mid-to-high-level combat strength.

Once these four talented dragons grow, this problem will be readily resolved.

With more usable dragon talents under his command, Solrog no longer needs to handle everything personally, as in the past.

"Galos, when can we finally march into the Sel Wilderness?"

Red Dragon Samantha could no longer suppress her inner restlessness. She stretched out her scarlet tongue, licking her sharp Dragon’s Kiss, urgently asking.

Ever since her brief return to the wilderness and the successful destruction of that dwarf outpost, the thought of returning to that vast land to gallop freely has grown stronger in her heart, like a raging wildfire.

"Now is not yet the best time."

The steady voice of the Red Iron Dragon resonated, with undeniable authority: "But the wait will not be long."

He raised his formidable dragon head, his Dragon Eyes seemingly penetrating the thick steel walls of the Burning Steel Castle, silently gazing toward the distant south, overlooking the vast land known as the Sel Wilderness.

"Our last attack on the Black Rock Duchy’s outpost in the wilderness did not attract any substantial pursuit."

Galos said: "This is already a signal—interest in the wilderness borderlands from the Federation Countries is significantly decreasing."

He paused slightly, presenting even more weighty information: "Moreover, just a few days ago, I received a critically important piece of intelligence from Gordon."

He swept his gaze over the present dragons, speaking solemnly: "The Lotheren Kingdom has recalled its legendary powerhouses stationed long-term at the Sel Wilderness border."

Before Red Dragon Samantha could fully grasp the deep significance behind this intelligence, Iron Dragon Solrog was already the first to have his eyes light up, shining brightly.

"Lotheren Kingdom recalls its legendary combat strength..."

"To respond to the significant pressure and threats possibly brought by Lotheren Kingdom, other neighboring kingdoms will likely follow suit, also withdrawing their top forces from the border and wilderness, redeploying them to more critical conflict zones!"

He decisively concluded: "When the war flames among the Southern Countries truly ignite, and the legendary forces are too preoccupied to care for other matters, that will be our best opportunity to march into the Sel Wilderness, seizing advantages amidst chaos!"

The vast land of Sel Wilderness, located beyond the borders of the Southern Countries, technically does not belong to any nation’s legal territory. It’s merely regarded by these strong nations as a "common backyard" where resources can be freely divided and outposts established.

When the mainland of the countries is peaceful and prosperous.

Garrisons at the wilderness border are usually well-equipped, filled with powerhouses, and immensely intimidating.

However, once turbulent winds sweep across the continent, and war clouds gather, in order to concentrate forces to confront the core storm imminently approaching, countries will surely choose to withdraw their top powerhouses stationed in "secondary regions" like the wilderness, redeploying them to more critical and dangerous national borders.

Consequently, although the military presence in the wilderness remains formidable, its deterrence and combat effectiveness, compared to its peak state, will undoubtedly be significantly weakened, providing monsters with opportunities to exploit.

"Indeed! My judgment aligns completely with Solrog’s!"

After a brief silence, Red Dragon Samantha emphatically nodded her dragon head, loudly expressing her agreement.
