Chapter 585: Dragon Feast Altar and Dragon Feast Witch
Deep Purple Garden.

In this secret place at the bottom of the sarcophagus cave, Edge is learning the Fallen Leaf School's fighting skills.

The person who taught her was Ampah. Although this veteran was a pure-blooded knight, he got along very well with the others during the time he joined Leida's camp.

Even Dann, who never spoke, had established a good relationship with Ampah through repeated fights. As a result, Ampah was able to teach Edge how to learn Dann's Fallen Leaf style fighting techniques.

This fighting technique focuses on integrating "Chi" into fists and feet. Compared with the way of strength and Qi, the Falling Leaf Fighting Technique is more advanced and has a very deep application of Qi.

Even Li You, after learning about the Falling Leaf Fighting Technique, was very interested in it. After all, if this fighting technique is practiced to a high level, the combat power can completely rival those warriors with magic power. It is basically a higher level version of Qi.

Under the guidance and requirements of Ampah, Edge started practicing boxing early in the morning. After sweating profusely, the morning exercise came to an end.

"Very good." An Pah was not stingy with encouragement. "You already have a deep understanding of Qi. You only need to adapt to the Qi method of Falling Leaf Fighting Technique, and you will be able to break through the current bottleneck immediately."

Aiji nodded: "I have roughly figured out the method, and I will definitely be able to get started in the next few days."

As they were talking, they heard the sound of weak footsteps from a cave nearby, and Xu Liye staggered out.

"...Ah, Master Torina, thank you for your gift..."

Edge and Ampah couldn't help but turn their heads away - this guy was high again.

"...Speaking of which, Mr. Li You and his companions went to the Spike Mountain." An Pah stroked his beard and changed the subject. "I have also heard that there is a mad dragon named Beile living on that mountain. I am afraid it is not so easy to deal with."

"That's why you asked Yuzu to come along, right?" Edge said, "I have to work harder so I can help if there's any problem in the future."

Originally, Li You left Yuzu and Edge here on purpose, so that they could rest, watch over them and protect them. After all, Tolina and the core of the Night Demon's lair were both here.

But early this morning, Li You suddenly teleported over and brought Yuzu over because they were planning to climb the Spiky Mountain.

This will certainly lead to a decrease in the defense here. After all, the Night Demon's Nest is not breeding Night Demons because it is fully supplying Torina's needs. Once Yuzu leaves, this place can only rely on Ampah.

Fortunately, this garden is extremely secretive and cannot be found by ordinary people. Besides, no strange people should set foot in the shadowy land at this time.

After a short break, Edge continued practicing.

……

At the same time, at the foot of Spiky Mountain.

"Pfft-"

The Blood Immortal Slash pierced down into the flying dragon's head. Li You, who was stepping on its neck, shouted loudly, swung his sword upwards, and cut the flying dragon's head in half with one stroke!
Blood splattered, and the dragon's body went limp, falling heavily to the ground. In front of it, Yuzu, who had turned into a three-meter-tall man, let go of the hand holding the dragon's wings and let it fall into the pool.

Li You was not polite either. He swung his knife, cut through the dragon's hard scales, and dug out its heart. Yuzu then devoured the dragon's flesh and blood in big mouthfuls.

They are currently at a fork in the road in front of the foot of the Spiky Mountain. There is a shallow pool of water with four or five dragon corpses lying around it. Only one flying dragon is alive - and then it was put to good use by Li You and Yuzi.

Li You put away the dragon heart covered with gravel and looked up at the towering Spike Mountain. Only when he reached the foot of the mountain could he see that the mountain was surrounded by storms and dark clouds. Red lightning struck from time to time, and the roar could even reach this side.

All these visions indicate that this mountain belongs to the territory of a tyrant.

"Mad Dragon Beile... I wonder what he would be like?" Li You naturally thought of the black dragon Midir of the Ring Seal City. He had been talking about going to Fatty Pedestrian Street for a stroll.

At this moment, the sound of an engine roared from a distance, and then two dark shadows approached rapidly from the fork in the road. They were actually two motorcycles rushing over.

The ones riding here were Kara and V. Kara's bike was Li You's Nazaré, and as for V, she was riding a motorcycle transformed from Pandora. The whole bike was full of a cool feeling that combined technology and magic.

As expected, V was much faster than Kara. He braked suddenly and stopped in front of Li You and Yuzu, saying, "We found the Dragon Feast Altar. It's just a little way ahead."

Kara arrived just then and added, "The Dragon Feast Witch I mentioned earlier is also there, but based on my last experience, she's not easy to communicate with. Master, you might need to pay more attention to her."

Neither of them gave in. Li You looked at them, feeling helpless.

Of course he could guess what the two were doing last night, wasn't it just "don't leave after school" or something like that? And it seemed like V might have suffered a little loss, so he was determined to continue the competition today.

Li You really couldn't get involved in this matter, so he just waited and watched. As long as nothing unexpected happened, he didn't plan to interfere.

So he nodded and said, "Then let's go to the Dragon Feast Altar and take a look."

……

Seeing the Dragon Feast Altar up close was even more amazing than Li You had expected.

The corpse of a flying dragon, which was definitely not smaller than the Dragon Mother Guior, lay quietly at the end of the cliff. Its body and wings even connected two cliffs that were quite far apart, and it had turned into a part of the mountain.

In front of its fallen head, there was a huge but plain stone basin-shaped altar with a dark red flame burning in it. In front of the altar, a witch in a reddish-brown rag robe was kneeling on the ground, waiting for Li You and his party to approach.

When Li You saw the witch, he couldn't help but feel moved. Although she was in human form, her body was more similar to the ancient dragons he had seen before.

Her body was skinny, with horn-like protrusions on her shoulders, and her head was completely dragon-shaped, not resembling a human at all.

"The Dragon Feast Witch is also a dragon person?"

After seeing two dragon men in succession, Li You was basically certain that there must be special props in the Shadow Land, like the Dragon Body Stone of the Dark Soul, which could transform people into dragons. This aroused his interest.

However, Kara said, "No, I have tested it before, she is not a dragon."

"……Um?"

test?

"...Warriors over there, please come closer. I have something to say."

The Dragon Feast Witch seemed to be kneeling on the ground praying, and was only noticed when the group approached this distance. Then she stood up, calmed herself down, and called out.

Her voice sounded deep and pleasant, but when Li You moved closer, she paused obviously, stared at Li You, and exuded a hint of hostility.

Li You was stunned for a moment before realizing that the Dragon Feast Witch must have been affected by the effect of her title.

Interestingly, he has two titles, Dragon Slayer and God Slayer, and the effects are actually similar. However, when facing people with divinity, he basically does not feel the effect of the titles on reducing favorability.

On the contrary, thinking about past experiences, the effect of the title was more obvious when encountering dragons. Whenever encountering dragon enemies, they would generally chase Li You and bite him, including the flying dragon just now.

"So why is this?"

Among all the people he had met, only Captain Youer Shika was special. She should have the characteristics of both divinity and dragon, so her favorability should be deducted twice. However, when she saw Li You, she reacted as usual, so much so that Li You almost forgot that he had the effect of the title.

However, due to his own personality, philosophy and beliefs, the leader did not show it even though his initial favorability was completely deducted. As for the Dragon Feast Witch in front of him... she did not seem to be so well-mannered. Li You tried to take a step forward, and the Dragon Feast Witch immediately took a half step back, and her vigilance became even stronger. Such an intuitive reaction made Li You feel a little fresh.

At the same time, Li You also further confirmed that the effect of deducting favorability from a title is ultimately different from increasing damage, and it varies from person to person.

Although he still wanted to tease the Dragon Feast Witch, there would be no way to have a conversation if he continued like this, so Li You stood still, with magic power flowing through his body, and instantly transformed into a dragon man. His violent aura pounced on the Dragon Feast Witch like a storm!
Dragon Feast Witch: “!!”

Li You immediately lifted his dragon-human transformation, and the Dragon Feast Witch, who was swept by his aura, let down her guard and approached him again: "You... have the power of a dragon?"

She observed Li You carefully and said, "Although the form of this power is a little strange, it is undoubtedly the original power of the dragon race... I see, you seem to have been cursed by an ancient dragon. This is the source of the hostility. I was rude just now."

Before Li You could figure out how to write the story, the witch had already filled it in for him.

She nodded to Li You and said, "Since you are a warrior who can kill the ancient dragon and plunder its power, you are exactly what I want... Warrior, do you want to swallow the power of the dragon?"

Before Li You could reply, the witch continued to speak: "I understand. You must be craving for the power of the dragon if you come here. So listen to me."

"not me……"

"Go to that spiked mountain. There lies Baelor, the oldest and most vicious dragon."

"Wait a moment..."

"Human warrior, obey your desire, kill that thing, and swallow its hot heart!"

The Dragon Feast Witch became more and more absorbed in her speech, completely immersed in her own world. She even ignored Li You's repeated waving in front of her.

Li You couldn't help but turn his head and look at Kara: "... Was she like this before?"

Kara suppressed her laughter and said, "Why else do you think I wandered around here and then ran back?"

Li You: "......"

Are all dragons somewhat eccentric?

Fortunately, the Dragon Feast Witch finished her speech and came to her senses: "Sorry, I was a little too excited. Let me introduce myself again. I am here on the orders of my king, Platon Sanx, to wait for the Dragon Feast seekers and guide them with the power of the ancient dragon.

"Since you said that you came here to kill Beile, then I am your companion."

Li You: I never said that.

Although he was indeed coming for Beile, he did not say so. It was the Dragon Feast Witch who pushed the conversation forward on her own.

However, he noticed another detail in the witch's words: "Are you an ancient dragon?"

Li You became interested. He didn't expect that the Dragon Feast Witch was not a dragon person, but a person transformed from an ancient dragon?

This feels different right away, right?

He also just realized that the dragon-man transformed by the ancient dragon looked like this.

However, in response to his question, the witch paused before saying, "...I used to be. In the past, in order to defeat the evil dragon Beile, I chose to transform into such a weak form to provide guidance for the warriors. However, not long ago, I fell..."

Li You: "?"

what's the situation?
Kara behind him: pretending to look around at the scenery.

"...I'm very sorry. I could have given you the power of my king, which would have definitely increased your chances of victory."

The Dragon Feast Witch lowered her head and said, "But I am no longer an ancient dragon and can no longer seek shelter. The battle with Beile can only rely on your strength."

Li You glanced at Kara beside him, and then said: "...It's okay, just tell me something about Beile, that's enough."

"That's not a problem."

The Dragon Feast Witch nodded and began to explain: "...in the distant past, Beile betrayed the Dragon King. The traitor who dared to rebel and hurt our king, the mad dragon who was ultimately defeated...is our hateful enemy."

"From then on, Beile and his people, the flying dragons, became the sacrifices for the Dragon Feast. This altar was built for this purpose. Bring Beile's heart here and swallow it during the ceremony... That is the supreme Dragon Feast.

"Human warriors, our king Platon Sanx has guided you..."

"Okay, okay, I understand." Li You raised his hand, "No need to say more, Beile is dead, I said it."

"...That's great. Go, human warrior, Beile's heart will surely satisfy your desire... and further, turn you into a dragon." The Dragon Feast Witch was satisfied.

Li You did not talk any more, as he already had all the information he needed. The group then left the Dragon Feast Altar and headed towards the Spiky Mountain.

On the way, Li You remembered another thing.

"So this is what the ancient dragon turned into... So, Vic has a very unique taste, right?"

The game mentions that in the past, the ancient dragon Lance Shanks once transformed into a human form and taught the ancient dragon faith prayers in the royal city. The quasi-king Vic is Lance Shanks' favorite knight and even has the nickname "Dragon Lance".

So players used to joke that Wick had a dragon wife, but now they see that the dragon wife actually looks like this.

"…It's not impossible. The human system is free."

Li You imagined it and felt...it was acceptable.

At least not humans and dragons.

"Ahem, come to think of it, the guy who challenged the Dragon King in the past, Beile is definitely not weak."

Coming back to his senses, Li You coughed lightly and said to his companions beside him.

V said: "It sounds impressive, but I don't know the Dragon King, so I don't have a real sense of it. If I have to say, I'm curious about what she meant when she said she was corrupted."

"Well... I think someone might have an idea." Li You said, looking at Kara, "What do you think?"

Kara (looking away): "...What are you saying, Master? I don't understand."

She subconsciously quickened her pace, and was then grabbed by Li You: "Stop right there and tell the truth."

“——I didn’t mean it!”
