Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong - Chapter 572
Chapter 572: Chapter 411: Lord and Dragon_2
Just this fact alone was enough to send chills down one’s spine.
“No wonder the whole matter of ‘sealing’ the Red Dragon was kept in the dark from the Rivers Family. If the ancestor of my family had known that the magic barrier placed on this Red Dragon was utterly useless, he might have never accepted such an extremely dangerous mission.”
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, the current head of the Rivers Family, City Lord Tran, couldn’t help but take a deep breath, his face filled with a grave expression.
The two other Rivers Family elders, on the other hand, were still shocked and stared fearfully at the massive creature in front of them.
“In fact, these six barriers are not entirely useless.”
On the other side, the Red Giant Dragon seemed to see through Tran’s thoughts and leisurely said, “These magic barriers do indeed significantly weaken my strength. However, what’s more important is that they greatly conceal the unique Dragon Clan aura on me, preventing my other kin from discovering me.”
Upon finishing these words, the Red Dragon paused for a moment and added, “Otherwise, would you think that such a special barrier that specifically targets the Dragon Clan would be easily mastered? I personally cast these six barriers back then and deliberately removed the restrictive effect of the barriers.”
Saying this, the Red Dragon’s enormous head and golden eyes flashed as they scanned everyone, finally landing on Leo Ray.
At this time, the Red Dragon noticed that all the members of the Human Clan, including the burly Tier 5 powerhouse with a full set of gear designed to restrain the Dragon Clan, were displaying nervous expressions. But this young man was still standing there indifferently.
Upon noticing this, the Red Giant Dragon immediately spoke, “Kid, besides Caesar, you’re the second human who’s seen me without getting nervous. I must say, you two are indeed alike.”
However, when I first met that guy, his own strength had already reached the Tier 5 Powerhouse level. Speaking from just that aspect, you’re even superior to him.”
“Am I even better than the Heroic King who single-handedly established the Coldflame Kingdom?”
At these words, Tran and the two Rivers Family elders couldn’t help but look at Leo Ray again, their faces full of admiration and reverence.
Whether it was his unfathomable power or his demeanor, this young Lord was truly extraordinary.
With the loyalty of a Tier 5 Powerhouse, combined with possessing various Tier 5 Divine Weapons, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call him a king now.
“From a certain perspective, I do have some similarities with him.”
On the other side, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows and smiled faintly.
The reason Leo Ray answered this way was because both King West and himself were from the Summer Realm, which made them quite alike.
As for why Leo Ray remained so calm, apart from having Taylor and Gideon Black’s unwavering loyalty, and besides him, another important reason was that he possessed the [Blessing of the Southern Cross], which could completely block a single Tier 5 attack.
Furthermore, both emotionally and rationally, the likelihood of this Red Dragon suddenly turning against him was rather low at the moment.
The most crucial point was that, given the current situation, showing nervousness would simply imply that he wasn’t confident in escaping. It would be better to remain calm and collected as much as possible, making it difficult for the opposition to gauge his true depth.
“Speaking of which, Red Big-fella, since you used the word ‘slightly better’ just now, it seems you don’t know me well. Why don’t we get to know each other more deeply?”
Immediately after, Leo Ray smiled faintly and spoke again.
Without a doubt, Leo Ray had only one goal in mind – to somehow make this Tier 5 Red Dragon serve him.
If he could successfully achieve this, the overall strength of his territory would undoubtedly experience an epic boost!
It would also play a key role in his plans to control the Coldflame Eastern Region.
“Of course, there are still two small problems that need to be resolved.
The first is how to ensure that, when outside the Firsdale Territory, it won’t be discovered by other hostile members of its own clan.
The second issue is how to subdue it.
After all, it’s impossible for me to have a Tier 5 Recruitment Order or make the entire Red Dragon Group sign an Obedience Pact right now. However, I’ve already come up with a way to deal with both issues.”
As Leo Ray thought of this, the Red Dragon across from him heard his words and stared blankly for a moment before retreating back into the barrier and speaking solemnly, “Kid, it seems you’ve misunderstood something.
I appreciate you, but that does not mean I want to communicate further with you. If there is nothing else, you can take your people and leave.”
“Well, I originally wanted to tell you a way to avoid being hunted by your kind without staying here in the Firsdale Territory, but since you don’t want to hear it, I won’t force it.”
Having said that, Leo Ray did not hesitate to turn around and take a step forward.
However, before Leo Ray could take two steps, the anxious voice of the red giant dragon sounded from behind: “Wait, do you really have a way?”
Without a doubt, Leo Ray’s words hit the red giant dragon’s pain point.
Just as Leo Ray had guessed.
This mysterious red dragon indeed chose to be “sealed” here to avoid being hunted by its own kind when there was no other option.
If there were other ways, who would willingly sleep in this dark underground for more than 600 years?
Moreover, the red dragon indeed had something to accomplish, which is why it bowed its proud head and eventually lay dormant here, waiting for the right opportunity.
On the other side, upon hearing this, Leo Ray stopped, and a cunning expression appeared on his face.
He then turned around again, smiled faintly, and said: “Of course there is a way.”
“Please elaborate.”
At this moment, the giant dragon bent down its pillar-like limbs and sat in front of everyone, no longer with the condescending attitude it had before.
However, from the slightly rising tone of its words, it was clear that it still had great doubts.
Simultaneously, disbelief appeared on the faces of City Lord Tran and the two elders of the Rivers Family.
The issue that this giant dragon and His Majesty the Heroic King could not resolve 600 years ago, could this young man really solve it?
“You mentioned earlier that your kind was able to track and detect you because your body carries the unique aura of the Dragon Clan, right?”
With a faint smile, Leo Ray inquired.
“Naturally.”
On the other side, the giant red dragon nodded its huge head and replied: “And the numerous barriers here can reduce my dragon aura to the lowest.”
“Then the answer is quite obvious.”
At this moment, Leo Ray slowly paced in front of the red giant dragon and said: “As long as you use transformation type items, you can completely transform into a human form.”
If you can freely switch between the Dragon Clan and the Human Clan and become a complete human form, your body will naturally no longer carry the aura of the Dragon Clan.”
Upon saying this, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
In this way, the first small issue was naturally resolved effortlessly.
“What method…”
Upon hearing this, not only was the red dragon not excited, but disappointment was evident in its tone. It continued: “Boy, I had thought of this method long ago, but transformation type items are extremely rare.
Moreover, to make me successful in transformation, I must use Tier 5 Magic Potions, which are even rarer. Even when I worked alongside King West in the past, I couldn’t find a trace of such an item. Do you have any?”
Hearing the red dragon’s skepticism, Tran and the others couldn’t help but show a hint of uncertainty on their faces.
Admittedly, this young man’s energy was indeed profound and unfathomable.
However, to say that he could be compared with the Coldflame Royal Family, represented by the Heroic King of the past, was still quite doubtful.
After all, the era of the Heroic King was the most glorious era of the Coldflame Kingdom.
While Tran and the others were quietly pondering, on the other side, Leo Ray smiled faintly, and a small scroll exuding a rich, colorful glow appeared in his palm.
