The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

Chapter 338: First Form (Two chapters in one)

[Congratulations, the concentration of your mutant dragon bloodline has been raised to 'pure'! ]

[Congratulations, with the blessing of bloodline power, your special sonic secret 'Dragon Roar' has been upgraded and integrated into your physical talent.]

[Congratulations, with the blessing of bloodline power, you have unlocked the first form of mutant dragon man! ]

"Pure?!" Ryan's eyes lit up when he saw these two words.

"It's upgraded. The blood concentration has been raised from 'medium' to 'pure'."

"This is basically consistent with my previous guess. Sure enough, there is another level after 'medium' and before 'full-bodied'."

"Dragon roar has become an instinct of the body and a talent? This is a good thing."

"Huh? This is..." Ryan's eyes lit up instantly.

"The first form of the mutant dragon man?!"

"Transform into a dragon man?"

"The first form? Isn't there a subsequent second form or something like that?"

"Not bad, not bad. This trip was not in vain. The loss of the two battle puppets, Hardened Adamantite and Enchanted Thorium, is just a drop in the bucket compared to this gain."

Since Ryan was attracted by the first form of this mutant dragon man, he no longer looked at the previous system prompts, but immediately switched to the attribute bar to check it in detail.

[Effect of the Mutated Dragon Bloodline (Pure): Affinity with water, fire, and earth elements is greatly improved, with top-level talent effects of danger perception, dark vision, weapon proficiency, extraordinary comprehension, great strength, steel body, and dragon roar, and the ability to transform into the first form of a mutant dragon man. ]

[Mutated Dragon Man First Form (Dragon Man Warrior Form): After activation, the body size becomes significantly larger, the body surface becomes dragon scales, possesses super strong defense and resistance, is immune to low-level toxins and disease effects, and is immune to witchcraft damage below 20 degrees.]

(Note: Duration is positively correlated with blood concentration and physical condition.)
"Hiss~ So fierce?!"

Ryan's eyes widened.

The word "immune" appearing twice in a row was enough to shock Ryan.

This was the first time he saw the word "immune" in so many of his career panels.

"Immune to witchcraft damage below 20 degrees?"

"Doesn't that mean most level 0 magic has no effect on me?"

Just as Ryan was thinking, the system prompt refreshed another one:
[The prerequisites for promotion to Dragon Vein Wizard (Legend) are: 1. The concentration of mutant dragon blood is 'rich' or above; 2. Level 3 crystallization wizard or above; 3. A complete set of dragon blood essence. The current conditions are not met, and the promotion to Dragon Vein Wizard (Legend) fails! ]

"Huh? Precondition three is also clear?!"

"As the concentration of my dragon blood increases, the conditions for promotion to Dragon Vein Wizard (Legend) become clearer."

"No, it is completely clear! There are only three conditions to advance to the Dragon Vein Sorcery (Legend) profession."

Ryan's eyes lit up and he was instantly overjoyed.

He didn't expect that the prerequisites for the Dragon Vein Wizard were only three. You have to know that the prerequisites for the previous epic profession 'King of Thousand Blades' were a lot.

But soon, Ryan frowned slightly.

"A complete essence of dragon blood?"

Although there are only three items, none of them can be easily achieved.

Suddenly, Ryan thought of something.

He quickly controlled Blood Feather and landed next to the fallen Corrupted Dragon Agnes.

Then, Ryan endured the stench that was comparable to that of canned herrings and once again got stained with some of the rotten dragon's pus and blood. After confirming that he could not absorb any dragon genes again, he left quickly.

This made the griffin knights in the air look at each other in confusion for a while, and then they landed immediately after him.

Although they didn't quite understand Ryan's behavior, after thinking about it, they believed that Lord Ryan was probably trying to confirm whether the Corrupted Dragon was dead or not.

What a cautious Lord Ryan!
at the same time.

Inside the captain's cabin of the Federation's Lancelot-class giant gunboat.

Lady Terena was still looking Ryan up and down through a telescope, while the other federal officers who had escaped death also curiously picked up their telescopes to observe the Imperial Flying Knight who defeated the dragon.

"Hey, I remember the opponent's mount. It seems to be a Blood-Feathered Hippogryph, a relatively rare and ferocious flying species." said a federal major general.

"How can the opponent be so young!" Lieutenant General Ruiz, the highest-ranking officer in the federal delegation, was also observing Ryan, who had taken off his knight's helmet and was washing off the dragon pus on his body, and said in surprise.

"Sir, I want all the other party's information." Lady Trena said without turning her head.

Obviously, Treina was very interested in this young man who suddenly appeared and almost single-handedly solved the Corruption Dragon.

One person is comparable to the giant Lancelot-class gunboat that took two years and a huge amount of money to build by the First Federal Airship Factory. This gives Trena enough reason to focus on him.

Trena had already decided in her heart that as long as there was a slight possibility, she would do her best to bring the other party to the Federation's side.

It’s not that the Federation doesn’t have geniuses, but that the Federation needs to absorb all kinds of top talents in order to cope with the next changes in the situation and deal with subsequent challenges.

The Ryan in front of him is young enough, strong enough, and the potential he shows is dazzling enough!
"As you command, Special Envoy."

"By the way, let's find a suitable place to land nearby. A county town in the empire has been severely damaged, and it is estimated that it will not return so quickly."

And the other side.

On the Imperial military airship, it was impossible for Duke Victor, Admiral Edward and others not to be shocked when they saw that Ryan was actually able to defeat the Corrupted Dragon Agnes.

After all, knowing one's weaknesses and defeating one's opponent based on those weaknesses are two different concepts.

The key to defeating the Corrupted Dragon Agnes is to destroy the "Heart of Corruption" in its chest.

But to break through the opponent's corrupt force field, tear open the opponent's chest when he is not prepared, and attack the 'heart of corruption', this is simply not something that ordinary people can do.

They had sent an urgent message to Ryan just to remind him not to mistakenly believe that the Corruption Dragon was dead. At the same time, they hoped that Ryan could avoid the Corruption Dragon's subsequent counterattack in advance.

Who would have thought that Ryan could defeat the Corrupted Dragon again.

Moreover, this time, based on the information they provided, the Corrupted Dragon Agnes was completely killed!

Although the Corrupted Dragon Agnes had been imprisoned in the Forbidden Gate for thousands of years, her strength had long been greatly weakened. Even after recovering for a period of time, she was still far from returning to her peak.

Basically, the opponent's melee combat ability is about at the peak of legendary level, but considering the difficulty of Agnes's corruption force field, overall, the opponent still barely has epic-level combat power.

It was amazing enough that Ryan was able to kill him!

"Let's find a place to land and visit our heroes." Duke Victor waved his hand and said with a beaming face.

Faced with such an epic victory, and with himself as the commander, even Duke Victor, who usually did not show his emotions, did not try to hide his joy at this moment.

Admiral Edward glanced at Duke Victor, feeling both happy and worried. He slowed down a few steps and whispered to the Duke of Munster beside him:

"It seems that the two of us can't keep Ryan."

The Duke of Munster also shook his head and said helplessly: "Yes. But at least we can delay it for a few more days."

"Don't forget, Ryan is also the chief security adviser for Munster. I can help you hold off the transfer order from the Sword Bearer Headquarters for a while."

Ryan's performance in this battle was too dazzling.

There might be flying knights who are also puppeteers in the entire Dragun Empire, but there are probably no ones with strength as strong as Ryan.

Duke Victor, who has seen Ryan's strength, will certainly be widely publicized in the imperial capital. He may not be able to stay if he wants to.

With the help of several water wizards, Ryan washed his body clean. At the same time, those wizards also took the initiative to wash the blood-feathered horned beast clean.

After all, the corruption infection of the Corruption Dragon is no joke.

He didn't want Xueyu to become like that, a monster covered with white hair and mushrooms.

At this time, a large group of people dressed as city guards, led by several knights on war horses, came to the corpse of the rotten dragon Agnes.

The leader was a bearded knight whose age was hard to tell. He first looked at the huge corpse of the Rotten Dragon in shock and did not dare to get close. He then focused his attention on Ryan and the Griffin Knights standing nearby.

"My dear lord, I am the Archon Count Isaac. Thank you and the Griffin Knights for your timely rescue of Brightxin. Otherwise, Brightxin would have been destroyed this time."

The Bretsin defenders, led by the bearded knight, took off their helmets and saluted solemnly to Ryan and the griffin knights.

"You're welcome, Lord Isaac."

"This is what the Griffin Knights and I should do." Ryan quickly stepped forward and helped the earl up.

He didn't expect that the bearded knight in front of him was actually the governor of Bretsin, a count.

After a brief greeting, many people from Brightxin also ran over and expressed their gratitude to Ryan and the Griffin Knights.

At this time, Isaac also learned from the introduction of the Griffin Knight beside him that the young man in front of him, Ryan, was actually an Imperial Diamond-level swordsman and the chief security adviser of Munster. He couldn't help but admire him greatly.

"Although Brightxin is located in a remote area, there are more than 200,000 residents in the city. But after the attack, it is estimated that at least one-third of them were killed or injured." Isaac couldn't help but sigh and said.

"Fortunately, Lord Ryan and the Griffin Knights arrived quickly enough, otherwise, the casualties would be far more than these."

Hearing this result, Ryan couldn't help but sigh.

"One third of more than 200,000 people, that means at least 70,000 to 80,000 people were killed or injured."

"Are all the monsters in the Forbidden Gate so terrifying?" Ryan thought to himself.

Indeed, how should we describe the strength of the Corrupted Dragon Agnes? Because of its special corruption ability, it can be said that group attacks have basically no effect on it.

Moreover, the destructive power of the Corrupted Dragon Agnes on a city far exceeds that of an ordinary dragon.

Because tens of thousands of corrupt followers can destroy a city's defenses in a short period of time, and give birth to more followers, which in turn give them feedback, causing their strength to soar.

Thinking about it this way, the resolution of this incident was actually fortunate.

Because the strength of the Corrupted Dragon Agnes had obviously not recovered to its peak. Ryan personally felt that the opponent's strength might have just recovered about 20% to 30%.

At present, Agnes's dragon body defense has obviously not reached the epic level.

But if it completely corrupts the more than 200,000 residents of Bretsin, it will be hard to say. It is possible that the other party will be able to recover most of its strength.

"By then, it will be much more difficult for me to kill the other party."

"No, perhaps, there is no possibility of killing the opponent at all." Ryan couldn't help but shook his head and thought to himself.

"Earl Isaac, the situation in Munster Province has been rather turbulent recently. If there is any situation, please feel free to contact me." Ryan comforted.

"Thank you, Lord Ryan. Actually, the situation in Munster is relatively good. My nephew is in the Marne Province in the northern border of the empire. The situation there is worse! Three counties have already fallen."

Earl Isaac was obviously helpless about the current situation of the empire and shook his head.

"The Marne Province? The Marne Province on the other side of the Biting Tundra?" Ryan suddenly thought of something and asked back.

"Yes, that's it. Lord Ryan is also familiar with that place?"

"Not really, but I have a friend there. By the way, Lord Isaac, what position does your nephew hold?"

"My nephew belongs to the same Sword Bearer organization as you, Lord Ryan. He is a silver-level Sword Bearer in the Marne Province."

At this time, a large group of people, dressed differently from the imperial people, came over, surrounding a noble lady with an extraordinary aura.

Ryan looked up, feeling slightly surprised.

Of course he recognized the people who came. They were from the federal delegation. The noble lady at the head was the head of the delegation. Her name seemed to be Trena.

"Viscount Ryan, your extraordinary and fearless performance in the battle just now is truly admirable." Lady Terena stepped forward, her beautiful eyes looking around, and said.

This time, Treina wore a black pleated skirt instead of her previous hunting suit, which added a bit of charm to her aura of high power.

The overall feeling it gives people can be said to be unique and charming.

Facing the praise from the Federation envoy Trena, Ryan smiled slightly and bowed, saying, "Thank you for the praise, Your Excellency the Special Envoy, but in comparison, the Griffin Knights are more brave and fearless than me."

"As a member of the Imperial Sword Bearers, I, like the brave Bretsin defenders, have only done what I should do."

Hearing Ryan's words, the griffin knights on the side all felt proud. Even Viscount Felke had a look of knowing him, and Fisher was so excited that his face turned red.

Take a look!

Lord Ryan is not only powerful, but also so supportive of us!
The defenders of Brightsin, led by Earl Isaac, also felt warm in their hearts. Although they suffered a defeat, Lord Ryan and the Griffin Knight, who were also friendly forces, did not look down on them.

"Viscount Ryan, on behalf of the federal delegation, I would like to invite you to visit our Lancelot-class giant gunboat." Trena invited with a smile.

Many things are naturally difficult to say in front of so many people, so Treina came up with an idea to invite Ryan to visit the airship.

As long as Ryan got on the gunboat, she would naturally have the opportunity to be alone with him.

It would only take a few minutes, and she believed that with her communication skills, she would be able to extend a meaningful olive branch to the young man in front of her.

It’s not like she could persuade Ryan to switch to the Federation within a few minutes.

Rather, she would plant a seed in the heart of the young man in front of her, a seed that might allow him to join the Federation. At the same time, she would also let the young man know that the Federation would always open its doors to him.

"This." Ryan looked thoughtful.

Of course he wanted to go and take a look. Ryan was quite curious about the Eagle Federation.

Whether it is the steam power of the enemy airship or the firepower used in the battle just now, both have their advantages. In this regard, the Empire lags behind by a lot.

However, his current identity was that of an imperial civil servant, and it was not appropriate for him to casually accept an invitation to join a foreign airship.

At this time, the old and wise Duke Victor saw this scene from a distance and shouted loudly:

"Haha, Special Envoy Trena, it's still quite chaotic here. Why did you all get off the airship? It would be terrible if something unexpected happened."

Hearing Victor's voice, Treina couldn't help but frown, thinking to herself that it was a pity that she had missed a great opportunity.

However, she could see that Ryan was still very interested in visiting the Lancelot-class gunboat.

That means she still has a chance.

"Duke Victor, you are too polite. We just want to see if there is any way we can help." Trena said with a smile.

Victor naturally didn't believe what Trena said.

"Special Envoy Trena, thank you for your country's cooperation and assistance in the battle just now. Thank you very much. I think the Duke of Munster will handle the next matter properly."

"In order not to affect your delegation's subsequent itinerary, I suggest that we hurry back to Münster. What do you think?" Victor said with a smile.

"Of course, let's set off back now." Trena nodded and said with a smile.

At this time, Duke Victor took two steps at a time and came to Ryan's side. With a smile on his face, he enthusiastically took Ryan's hand and said:

"Lord Ryan, it's a pity that you continue to stay in Munster with your strength. You should go to the imperial capital, where there is a broader stage and more resources for growth."

"Thank you, Duke Victor. However, my family is in Munster now, so I probably won't consider going to the imperial capital in the short term." Ryan said with a smile.

"Family? That's too easy. You just need to come to the imperial capital and your family can move here with you. I will handle all the procedures." Victor patted his chest and promised.

"Well, I heard that the housing prices in the capital seem to be very high."

"Don't worry, I will take care of the house for you and your family. Maybe it will be difficult to find a house that is too luxurious, but if it is a house of Viscount level, I will help you."

Victor waved his hand, indicating that this was not a problem at all.

"Thank you, Duke Victor, for this."

"Viscount Ryan, to put it another way, you have such strong power, you should be treated better. You see, you are still a viscount now. If you were in the imperial capital, you would at least be an earl."

"Ahem, Duke Victor, the process for Ryan's earldom is already underway," Admiral Edward said, coughing.

Damn, this guy Victor is poaching people right in front of him.

"Is that so?" Victor also realized his own loss of composure at this time, and some of his words were a bit too blunt.

But soon, Victor had an idea, and he thought that perhaps persuading the young man in front of him from another angle would be more effective.

Victor said, "Lord Ryan, I see you are quite young, so you should not be married yet, right?"

"No." Ryan shook his head and said.

After all, this kind of thing cannot be denied, and the other party can find out by just asking anyone.

"That's great, Viscount Ryan. I have three granddaughters. The eldest has just turned eighteen and has become a formal knight. She is currently studying at the Imperial Royal Academy. She is very beautiful. Do you think we can find some time to meet each other?"

"Huh?" Ryan was a little choked.

No.

Duke Victor, this is too direct.

Admiral Edward and the Duke of Munster, who were standing by, looked pale when they heard this.

"Don't like it? That's okay. My other granddaughter is sixteen years old, but she is already a third-level wizard apprentice. She likes to read various ancient books and has an elegant temperament."

Ryan didn't know what to say for a moment.

Seeing that Ryan remained silent, Victor stroked his chin, frowned, and muttered to himself.

"You don't like it either?"

"But my last granddaughter is too young, only ten years old."

This made Ryan's face darken, and he quickly walked around Duke Victor.
A few hours later, Ryan returned to Munster with the main force.

At this time, it was almost evening.

After declining the subsequent dinner invitation, Ryan chose to return to the mansion.

Ryan was really annoyed by the old man Duke Victor's tireless and unscrupulous persuasion.

After having dinner with his family, Anna, and the beautiful woman Jennifer, Ryan finally had time to check the previous battle prompts:

[Congratulations, you defeated a strong enemy and gained 17 gold skill point! 】

[Congratulations, your Will (Hidden) attribute has been improved! ]

[Congratulations, your Thousand Blade King (Epic) class level has been upgraded! ]

[Congratulations, your Thousand Blade King (Epic) class level has been upgraded! ]

After the battle with the Corrupted Dragon Agnes, Ryan's new epic class, 'King of Thousand Blades', was upgraded four levels in a row to level 8, giving him 4 attribute points and 4 skill points.

Adding his original remaining points, the total remaining attribute points are now 6 points, the remaining skill points are 4 points, and the gold skill points are 23 points.

However, what Ryan wanted to know most at this moment was the effect of the new ability he gained after his blood concentration increased - "transformation into dragon man form".

When Ryan came to the training room, he thought about it, then turned around and locked the door of the training room for the first time.

This is because Ryan didn't know whether the transformed dragon form would be extremely ugly, and he was worried about scaring his family.

Another thing is that he doesn't want others to know about his ultimate trump card, the transformation into dragon man, even members of his own team like Vieri.

It’s not that I don’t trust you, but I want to avoid any possibility, because in the extraordinary world, there are many magical means to confuse people or reveal the truth.

As Ryan silently chanted "transform into dragon form", his entire person changed dramatically in an instant.
