Chapter 151 The Evil Dragon is the Hidden Final Boss
The Human Viscount's swordsmanship skill level was not weak; facing an ordinary Giant Dragon, he could definitely put up a fight and even emerge victorious.
But he wouldn't stand a chance against that wandering Pureblood Black Dragon in the Human World; a Pureblood Black Dragon that could withstand the attacks of a Divine Artifact and defeat three of its own kind, with great speed, attack power, and defensive power. In that battle, she had yet to find the Black Dragon's weakness.
If the Human Viscount were to confront that Black Dragon, he was bound to lose.
His level of swordsmanship was unlikely to breach the Black Dragon's defenses.
If Divine Artifacts could not break the Black Dragon's defenses, he would fare even worse, unless he possessed a graded Divine Sword.
So far, she had not sensed the presence of any Divine Artifact on the Human Viscount.
As for Elf Amelia...
Being a member of the [Sunshine] squad... did not qualify her to be a candidate to defeat the Black Dragon. If she had to give an evaluation, Amelia didn't even have the qualifications to challenge that Black Dragon.
Human Viscount Lance had the qualifications to challenge the Black Dragon.
The captain of the Sunshine squad, the brave Reg, also had the qualifications to challenge the Black Dragon.
If the members of the [Sunshine] squad were all gathered, perhaps they could try to besiege that Black Dragon and see if they could subdue it...
Although the chances were very, very slim... there was still a possibility.
The Evil Dragon Sword Ancestor and the hero Reg, with the potential to ascend to godhood, possessed such strength.
Humans are fascinating creatures, with the vast majority being weak, but once a strong individual arises, an outlier of incredible strength appears.
Slaying the Demon King, slaying the Dragon, poses no difficulty for those human powerhouses.
Amelia was stunned. The Black Dragon that appeared within the borders of the Red Maple Kingdom was outrageously strong?
The kind holding Divine Artifacts couldn't even defeat it?
And it was three holding Divine Artifacts.
The Thunder Giant Dragon Erinna, and that Golden Giant Dragon... there seemed to be another Giant Dragon as well...
She had never heard of such a powerful Black Dragon, neither in legends nor in reality... this was the first time she was hearing of it...
Could it be that the Thunder Giant Dragon was too weak?
Impossible, the inherent strength of the Thunder Giant Dragon was above the Black Dragon's, and the strength of the Golden Giant Dragon was also above the Black Dragon's, plus they had Divine Artifacts...
It wasn't that they were weak, it was that the Black Dragon was absurdly strong.
Then it was over...
The hope of signing a contract with the Evil Dragon was shattered.
She wanted to sign a Dragon Knight contract with the Evil Dragon, wanted to become partners with the Evil Dragon, but she didn't want to become the Evil Dragon's retinue.
"Lance the liar, do you think you can beat the Black Dragon that Miss Erinna mentioned?"
Lance tapped the dining table with his fingers, lost in thought for a moment, and then slowly nodded, "Yes. But I'm not fond of fighting and killing. Unless necessary, I don't want to initiate a conflict with that Black Dragon."
Lance was serious when he said this.
Erinna and Amelia listened earnestly.
But when they heard Lance say he didn't like fighting and killing, they both rolled their eyes at the same time.
"Posturing."
"Pretentious."
Talking about not liking to fight and kill, in the end, isn't it just a lack of confidence in beating that Black Dragon?
So it turns out the Human Viscount, this Evil Dragon Sword Ancestor... also cares about saving face.
The Young Dragon, who had been listening for a long time, finished a sand pot of lamb soup.
Delicious.
When stewing the lamb soup, the Evil Dragon had added quite a few herbs to it.
Such a nourishing pot of lamb soup could not be wasted.
She had to finish it before it got cold.
Lamb soup should be consumed hot to be most delicious.
As for what the Evil Dragon and Elf, Thunder Giant Dragon talked about, she listened to some of it.
She made a summary in her mind: The Evil Dragon is a hidden big BOSS.
Saint Blue's noble lord.
Evil Dragon Sword Ancestor.
Spirit Summoner. Continue reading stories on empire
Beast Master.
The [non-existent Potion Master] of the brave squad.
The Evil Dragon surely had other identities she did not know about.
After all, Evil Dragon Lance was a Black Dragon who had lived for three thousand four hundred and fifty-five years; whether he had slept for a thousand years or not... no... whether it was five hundred years is still a matter.
What was he doing the rest of the time?
Learning.
Learning in the Human World.
Learning in the Dwarf Kingdom.
Learning in the Orc Kingdom.
Traveling in the Elven Kingdom.
He even appeared in the Demon Race far on the western continent.
There is no historical record of the Evil Dragon Lance.
But in corners unknown to most, a Black Dragon named Lance had left traces of his presence throughout history.
It's just that hardly anyone knew about it.
Never seen such a low-profile Evil Dragon.
Not to mention seeing... before Evil Dragon Lance showed up, she had never even heard of him.
As for her, the young dragon transformed from a Princess, she has become the Giant Dragon that all of Dragon Island wants to beat to death for no apparent reason.
Her life was at stake; she couldn't let Thunder Giant Dragon Erinna realize she was the child of the Black Dragon.
Outside of Black Dragon Island, she had to distance herself from the Evil Dragon.
At least until she became more durable, she had to do so; otherwise, she was really easy to be killed.
Alas...
She also didn't know whether Golden Giant Dragon Austin and Thunder Giant Dragon Erinna had spread the words of the Evil Dragon to Dragon Island or not.
Hoping they hadn't...
"Amelia, do you still plan to sign a Dragon Knight contract with the Black Dragon spoken of by Erinna?"
"I'd like to, but I don't have the means," Amelia said, deflated like a punctured balloon, slumping over the dining table, "I won't provoke that terrifying Black Dragon anymore. Otherwise, as Miss Erinna said, instead of becoming a Dragon Knight... I might end up as the retinue of the Evil Dragon...
I don't want to be a retinue of an Evil Dragon. Nor do I want to involve you in becoming the retinue of an Evil Dragon."
"What do you mean by involving..."
Amelia was touched by Lance's words; a friendship that started a thousand years ago... continued one thousand years later...
