The ancient dragon of Arknights

Chapter 42 The Dragon-Slaying Legacy

With the death of Zhan Long, Neltharion and his follower Meow breathed a sigh of relief. One person and one cat immediately relaxed and sat on the ground regardless of their appearance.

Neltharion took out the remaining potion and drank it in one gulp. He was still in good health at the moment and had no injuries. This sip of potion was entirely to calm his extremely excited emotions.

"What's next?"

Follower Meow looked at the huge corpse lying on the ground in the distance and was a little stunned. Zhanlong was also among the best types of monsters found. Although it was not as good as the ancient dragons that were like natural disasters, hunters who could hunt Zhanlong It can also be called an excellent sentence.

This kid Neltharion has no basic knowledge at all, so he was rushed over by him in a daze.If he had been trained as a hunter since childhood like the members of the investigation team, Follower Meow believed that he would be able to do great things!Of course, the premise is that he must have the most basic physical fitness of a hunter.It's still far behind now!

"What should I do according to the Hunter Code?"

"Of course it is to contact the stronghold and then transport the prey back to the stronghold. Scholars from the Institute of Ecology want to study and investigate, and its materials can also be used in the forging workshop to make excellent equipment. Try to imagine the weapon made by slaying the dragon's tail. Just take a moment."

That is definitely an extremely sharp weapon!

"According to previous experience... we will leave this space later and wake up. Then... I will start to grow the characteristics of Dragon Slayer."

This was a bit troublesome, because the size of the Dionysus was still relatively small, and its various characteristics were not too outrageous. Neltharion also enjoyed a normal life for 18 years.

Zhan Long can’t do it at this glance!

Covered in heavy armor, with unique body-to-tail proportions, and a steel tail like a giant sword... Neltharion seems to be completely out of character?

"Then, the hunting is over, let's return to the stronghold. Partner - we will talk about more things later."

"Oh... I'd also like to ask for hunter knowledge."

The follower, Meowth, was one step ahead of Neltharion, and his originally solid body began to become illusory, turning into a shimmer of light and dissipating like a bubble - it looked a bit scary, as if it had been directly wiped out by some transcendent power.

But he just left this world and returned to sleep.

Neltharion then began to fade away - his consciousness fell into chaos, waiting until the light came again.

He had already arrived at the magnificent sacred temple. Countless dragons stood roaring, spreading their wings, and raising their heads. They were all stone statues, waiting for the arrival of their souls.

Neltharion walked towards the division of beasts and dragons, and sure enough - among the many snow-white statues, a red and blue steel figure was particularly eye-catching.

"The dragon-slaying inheritance has been obtained."

Neltharion slowly walked up to this respectable opponent, and its eyes seemed to be moving with Neltharion. Finally, one person and one dragon faced each other.

Neltharion stretched out his hand to touch it - it was hard to the touch of steel, but he could feel the heat underneath.

Unique memories began to slowly flow into Neltharion's mind. They were gifts from Dragon Slayer.

The technique of tail flicking, the technique of swallowing lava fragments, the daily maintenance method of the tail, the method of courting the female dragon-slayer... what a mess.

Neltharion threw this mess aside for the first time. He was more concerned about the changes that Dragon Slaying could bring to him.

With a thought, Neltharion's own villain model suddenly appeared in his mind.

'Because as you grow up and your willpower becomes stronger, are your presentation methods more advanced? '

It would be easier to understand, so Nesario naturally agreed.

The first thing that changes in the villain model is the most powerful part of Dragon Slayer - its powerful core.

The dragon-slaying tail is famous, but the core strength of being able to wield this murderous weapon cannot be ignored - the strong hind legs that can support the whole body and take off; the tough waist that can swing the tail while balancing the balance.After this strengthening, Neltharion's power will reach a higher level.

Then there is the powerful heat dissipation system of Zhanlong. The thick carapace on its back is not only used for defense, but also for heat dissipation.The sacs in the tail and throat generate extremely high heat. If the temperature is too high, it will cause harm to itself. In order to avoid being killed by itself, Zhanlong has evolved an extremely efficient heat dissipation system.

Neltharion cannot grow that much carapace. If the humanoid body is carrying heavy armor, it will be inconvenient to move, so Neltharion's cooling system is buried under the skin.

Speaking of the dragon-slaying flame bag... Neltharion was lucky. The one he met had a noble samurai spirit. He always fought with a sword and never used long-range means - that is, spraying lava. Exploding blocks.

'He has never seen the evil Ashina swordsmanship. '

The human throat is too small to hold many pieces of lava, so Neltharion received enhancements to his esophagus and stomach.Neltharion can now eat super hot things and digest ore, coal, and other foods.

'Finally, the most famous sharp blade of Zhanlong is sharpened...'

Neltharion watched attentively - only after the model man demonstrated "Dragon Form: Hard Blade Grinding" did Neltharion truly know how to use this move.

Grinding the hard blade requires the cooperation of the dragon's hard mouth and sharp teeth, which Neltharion cannot naturally do, so - his claws have been strengthened!

The bone claws of the Mistyclaw can also evolve into steel claws after Neltharion eats ore. By interlacing the steel claws with the tail blade and then rubbing them together, the effect of grinding the steel claws can be obtained.

Of course, Neltharion cannot completely imitate the huge steel tail of Zhanlong - the human body structure is fragile!

By eating iron ore and high-energy fuel, and then mixing and digesting them, Neltharion's horny tail will gradually shed and change.

The originally thick tail will lose weight, but will soon increase in length, and the blade-like steel blade will be at the rear end of the tail.

"The dragon-slaying tail is like an invincible sword, but I... am really a master of swordsmanship."

Yes, judging from the size, the giant sword-like tail of Zhanlong is worthy of the word "Zhan". Nessario's is at most a tachi, and it should be renamed "Zhanlong".

"But it's okay. From today on, I will slay the dragon!"

Miserable Claw: Wait until I upgrade my dragon attribute before returning to version T0.

Neltharion slowly exited the space of Ten Thousand Dragons Palace, and his consciousness seemed to rise from the deep sea - he woke up the moment he broke through the sea!

"yawn......"

Neltharion lifted the quilt and raised his head from Vaifan's special pillow.

He glanced at Tails, who was folded beside the bed - nothing had changed.

"Oh, ore is simple. Where can I find coal? You will get ore disease if you chew the source stone..."

Neltharion, whose consciousness returned to the continent of Terra, instantly discovered the difficulty. The road to evolution and upgrading was still long and arduous.

Chapter 43 What?Arrested evolution disorder? (Childhood meme)

"Welcome to my course. During this semester, you will learn the use and maintenance of standard weapons, as well as corresponding mechanical engineering. Weapons are the most reliable partners of soldiers. At any time, you can trust the weapons in your hands. .”

The teacher who taught the class was a middle-aged man about 40 years old. He looked serious and unsmiling, the most classic image of a strict teacher.

Since the entrance proficiency test is over, other courses are now scheduled in the afternoon, such as the weapon use and maintenance that need to be learned today.

In the first class, everyone was very serious, but Neltharion was not serious.His mind is now full of mineral and energy solutions, but he has never studied this aspect professionally, so no matter how much he thinks about it, he can only come up with one general direction.

"Classmate Neltharion - the lessons I teach may be boring, but on the battlefield, your current distraction will cost you your life."

Neltharion stood up quickly when his name was called. In an instant, there were different expressions in the classroom.

Rita and Chen sighed slightly. This guy went to deal with something in a panic on Saturday, but couldn't find anyone on Sunday.

Now that class started on Monday, he seemed to be distracted all day.

"Teacher, Nessario's adaptability to Originium skills is a flaw. A large part of your course is incomprehensible."

There were many celebrities, and Neltharion stole the show in the first week. Although he made a big fool of himself during the Originium skill test, the subsequent sparring with the teacher suppressed this negative impact in an instant.Now that I finally have the opportunity to step on him, there are always those who are not afraid to jump out and give it a try.

"Origin stone skills can be improved through acquired training, and temporary embarrassment cannot trap a person for a lifetime."

Rita was very dissatisfied with the ridicule of others, and she directly stood up to speak for Neltharion; although Chen and Fiona did not speak directly, judging from their slightly furrowed brows, Neltharion was being protected.

"What this classmate said is very good. In fact, this is exactly what I am. When I first joined the army, my talent for Originium skills was only average, but now - I can stand behind the podium and teach you."

"Lack of ability can be tempered, but you cannot make a leap forward if you are willing to fall. Neltharion, you must be wary of the decline of your will."

In universities, there is no need to stand in the back of the classroom and listen to lectures. The teacher has said everything that needs to be said. Whether Nessario will listen or not is none of his business.

The Royal Guards College recruits talents and graduates elites, while those miscellaneous ones will be continuously eliminated over the course of four years.

Whether Neltharion falls or not will be evident on next year's roster.

Neltharion, who was in the spotlight for no reason, was a little helpless. He admitted that he was distracted first, but the fact was not at all what everyone thought.

Self-destruction has never had anything to do with him. He was just distracted by his own evolution.

......

"So, what happened to you? If you need help, I'm still happy to do it."

On the way out of the teaching building, the foursome lost the lively atmosphere of the past. The three girls were all very concerned about what happened to Neltharion.

In terms of Origin Stone skills, Fiona could only try her best to tell Nessario about her insights, hoping that Vaifan could resonate with her; Chen was thinking about the skills he learned, which ones were allowed to be transmitted to outsiders and were not suitable for others. The manipulation of Origin Stone skills will help; as for Rita...she can only be a teacher for once.

"No, no, it's not as serious as you think. You don't have to worry."

"I hope what you said is true. We are friends and can help each other."

"Of course I know, thank you."

After finishing the meal, they separated.

In fact, the "nightlife" of the Royal Guards School is also very exciting; the huge library contains the knowledge of countless wise men. As long as you calm down and read, you can possess this precious wealth; the training ground has the most advanced training equipment , it is very comfortable to take a shower and fall asleep after sweating for several hours...

If that doesn't work, you can still fall in love.

Famous young masters, aristocratic ladies, wealthy young men - here are the top people in Victoria. Money, resources, connections and abilities are beyond the reach of many people.

As long as Neltharion exerts his abilities, he can achieve success in any of the above lives; but he chooses the least promising life - going back to the dormitory to sleep!

You know, Fiona, Chen, and Rita are all training and studying hard. Compared with them, Nesario is just a salty fish.

"Welcome back, but please don't disturb me now, it will affect my train of thought."

Fischer was standing at the table in the living room. In front of him were many clue records or character information - there were many different colored threads as markers. It seemed like he was conducting espionage work?

"What are you doing?"

"..."

Fischer looked helplessly at Neltharion, who had just reminded him not to make any noise!

"We received a financial fraud case, but the relationship was complicated and the criminal was cunning, so the police have shelved it."

"Then why did it get into your hands?"

"Of course it's because I have the ability."

As Fischer spoke, he took out a certificate from the bag on the side. Nesario looked at it carefully - it clearly said City Police Detective.

"Tiaozi?"

"Partnership."

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen detective work yet. Most of my knowledge is about movies shot in Colombia, which doesn't have much reference value."

Neltharion was amazed. He could penetrate a stronghold by himself if he took action, but he couldn't do it if he was asked to look for clues and collect evidence like this.

"A few suspense films have reference value because their scripts may be adapted from reality. Directors have wanted to use my material in the past."

"What's the final result?"

"I explained it three times, but he still didn't understand the whole incident, so we left on bad terms... The gossip ended here, and my train of thought stopped."

Well, Neltharion understood, and he didn't want others to disturb him while he was working.

After washing up and returning to the room, Nesario chose to go to bed directly.

As his consciousness drifted away, he woke up again and found himself in a unique training venue.

"Meow, let's continue training today!"

"Please advise."

The follower, Meow, is also here. Yes, this is Neltharion's training.

On Sunday, he went to Sadien District again to work in depth with the Ellu cats.

Meowth and Neltharion trust each other very much because of their comradeship. Under this relationship, the other two simple-minded kittens accepted the offer without any hesitation.

Neltharion also asked Artisan Meow to think of a way to fix his tail, but because the minerals in the continent of Terra were different from those Artisan Meow was familiar with, he needed to give him some time.

As for the follower Meow, he said he wanted to train Neltharion and make him a qualified hunter.

As a result, that night - the two entered the consciousness space again, but appeared in the training ground.

Facing the huge wooden pile full of marks, Neltharion held the weapon in hand and started today's training.

Chapter 44 There is a clue! ?

In learning and training, time passes quickly.

One weekend came, and on Saturday, in order to make up for leaving without saying goodbye last week, Nesario specially invited Rita and others to visit Londinium again.
