Chapter 1757: Chapter 1318: Black Scale Armor Spreads Two
Killing intent is a very mysterious feeling. A person who has never even killed a chicken saying they kill people with impunity would only be laughed at. But when Anthony says such things, it makes Yennefer’s heart tighten, and the scales on her back almost stand up.
After a long moment, she smiled awkwardly, "So... that’s how you trained your martial technique? Impressive, impressive, haha, haha."
Anthony smiled slightly, "Yes, it’s quite dangerous, and carelessness can lead to death. I really envy you Dragon Clan members; you are born with it."
This kind of ’unintentional’ envy made Yennefer anxious instead, "Who’s born with it? Blood inheritance only passes down knowledge and skills. Improving strength still requires a lot of practice. I am the strongest in my tribe." ƒгeewёbnovel.com
"Oh, really? How many Dragon-Men are there in your tribe? Surely there aren’t just three or five left, and you’re the strongest among them?" Anthony asked curiously.
If it were a normal question, Yennefer might not have answered, fearing to reveal secrets. But Anthony’s slightly offhanded skepticism angered Yennefer to the point she couldn’t think of that and just hurried to argue, "Not just three or five; there are over nine hundred of us."
Still? Anthony keenly picked up on a key point and immediately asked, "Over nine hundred? Are there so few in your tribe now? What happened?"
Anthony’s words created the illusion that he knew how many there used to be in the Dragon Clan. Thinking of Ange, Yennefer naturally assumed that Father God told him and naturally said,
"Yes, a lot has happened. Our war with the Deceit Tree has been going on for many years. Many tribe members died at its hands, and many fell ill. With no choice, we had to retreat into the Alien Dragon Dimension, but we also lost the location of the Ancestor’s Tomb."
"The Alien Dragon Dimension? Then why are you outside?" Anthony asked.
Yennefer immediately gave Anthony a cautious look and didn’t speak.
Anthony didn’t mind at all and smiled kindly. He had already discovered the key point. It seemed whenever another large and small Dragon-Man was involved, Yennefer became particularly vigilant. So, he changed the subject: "You know that the Dragon God chased the Ancient Godlight into the Boundless Space Hole, right?"
Yennefer nodded, "Yes, the elders in the tribe have mentioned it."
"Why didn’t you follow them in? Aren’t you afraid to protect the Dragon God?" Anthony asked ’curiously.’
"Nonsense, we’re not afraid to protect the Dragon God? The elders said that Father God deemed the Boundless Space Hole too dangerous, and it couldn’t shelter us, so we weren’t allowed to follow," Yennefer erupted with rage.
"Oh, that’s how it is. Indeed, the Boundless Space Hole was too dangerous. We barely made a bloody path to escape by following the Dragon God," Anthony lamented.
This statement immediately choked Yennefer: you didn’t go to protect the Dragon God, but we followed the Dragon God and escaped the Boundless Space Hole, this kind of merit from ’Dragon’ innately weighs heavier than yours.
Yennefer was so angry her scales almost stood up, yet Anthony was completely unaware, slowly saying, "Would you like to know what happened to the Dragon God in the Boundless Space Hole?"
Yennefer’s anger was instantly disjointed; after taking a few deep breaths, she finally couldn’t help asking, "I want to know, what happened?"
In front of someone like Anthony, the Old God Stick, Yennefer was like a young dragon egg, easily manipulated into an emotional state, drawn to anger or excitement as he wished, and before she knew it, she’d revealed much information in bits and pieces.
From the information disclosed by Yennefer, we can know there is a Dragon-Man tribe of more than nine hundred people here, most of whom live in the Divine Dragon Dimension, a dimension built by the Dragon God with a multi-time and space barrier. It contains light and air, land, seas, mountains, and lakes, various animals, and plants.
Anthony said in the Soul Network, "It sounds like a large farm barrier because there are no God Star-like light sources inside, and the light changes with the dimension."
Beyond the Divine Dragon Dimension, there are other important dimensions, such as the Ancestor’s Tomb, the Time Dragon Stele Forest, etc. But due to the battle with the Deceit Tree, the Dragon Clan was forced out of the Ancestor’s Tomb because the location of dimensional rifts is not fixed, and without anyone to guard it, the Ancestor’s Tomb is already lost.
"Could the Deceit Tree actually be the Ancient Man Snake?" Negris said in the Soul Network.
The battle with the Deceit Tree has been going on for many years, and the Dragon Clan’s numbers have decreased from tens of thousands to the current nine hundred-plus, with their power greatly reduced. In recent years, they’ve dared not launch another battle with the Deceit Tree.
Yennefer is one of the rare strong ones in this generation of the Dragon Clan, having already awakened to the second stage of the Dragon God Transformation, the third young Dragon-Man in the Dragon Clan to awaken the Second Order Dragon God Transformation, and is very likely to become the new generation Dragon Clan Chief.
However, before he could inherit the position of Clan Leader, lead the Dragon Clan to flourish, annihilate the Deceit Tree, and reach the peak again, a strange disease suddenly appeared in the Dragon Clan. The infected Giant Dragons developed black spots on their scales, which gradually spread and fell off. Eventually, all their scales fell off, the Dragon Scum peeled off, their skin cracked, and finally, they died of dehydration.
This strange disease is contagious. Initially, it infected just one or two Giant Dragons, but it soon spread. Now more than three hundred Giant Dragons in the Divine Dragon Dimension have contracted the strange disease.
The remaining healthy Giant Dragons hurriedly fled, leaving the Divine Dragon Dimension, dispersing to find other places to settle.
Yennefer also took his wife and children, fleeing the Divine Dragon Dimension, living in a dimensional space ahead. This time out was to hunt in other dimensions, and on the way back, he found Luther blocking the way home. He initially planned to sneak around but got discovered and they ended up fighting.
"Infection? Falling scales? What kind of illness is this? Lord Negris, do you know?" Anthony asked in the Soul Network.
Negris said, "There are many scale-shedding diseases. Anxiety, season change, male shedding, and old age can all cause scale loss. But first dark spots form before shedding... the only thing I can think of is Gray Scale Armor, which infects two, but Gray Scale Armor is gray. It doesn’t turn black, nor cause death by dehydration," Negris said.
Finding Negris also didn’t know the disease, Anthony simply said, "Speaking of healing, I do have some knowledge. Can you go back and find one or two infected Giant Dragons and bring them over, so I can try to heal them?"
Yennefer skeptically examined Anthony, not quite persuaded, "Really?"
"Haha, how about trying it to find out? By the way, were you hurt just now? Where were you hurt? Let me heal you." As he spoke, Anthony summoned the Holy Light and began to apply it to Yennefer.
Yennefer leaned back but felt no harm from the Holy Light. After hesitating, she lifted her foot; just now she had kicked the Space Wall twice, cracking her toes, perfect to test Anthony’s healing ability.
However, before the Holy Light reached her body, Anthony suddenly frowned. The Holy Light in his hand shifted from applying to supporting, illuminating Yennefer’s ankle: "The Black Scale Armor you mentioned, isn’t it just like this?"
On Yennefer’s ankle, a small black spot the size of a soybean was clearly visible.
