Chapter 139 Conflict
Chapter 141 Conflict
Thor had always thought that beings like the white dragon, which were like mindless beasts, were the weakest of all the true dragons. It wasn't until he saw this ugly creature in front of him that he suddenly remembered that there was another "dragon".
Generally speaking, an adult white dragon's challenge level is around 13, but this guy in front of me is only 11.
This result may be the result of careful consideration and does not necessarily reflect their true strength in actual combat. However, it also confirms from another perspective the disadvantages of true dragons like the Deep Dragon in terms of strength, size, and vitality.
What Thor despised most were their wings growing on their forelimbs. The vast majority of true dragons have six limbs; those with only four limbs were practically incomplete and defective products.
Thor's contemptuous words instantly ignited the fury of the deep dragon before him, causing it to spew out plumes of gray gas from its throat.
The kobold corpse he was holding in his mouth began to rot and decay at a visible speed. Large patches of yellowish-green mycelium sprouted and grew from the gaps in the scales, and in an instant, it was covered with nauseating mold.
This is the effect of the Deepdragon's unique Fear Spore Breath, a type of mixed damage that not only disturbs the mind of creatures but also corrodes their bodies. In some ways, this breath is exceptionally terrifying.
However, when the deep dragon looked at the incessant flames engulfing Thor in the distance, and the scorched red and gradually softening rocks beneath its feet, it immediately took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the rage in its heart.
"Damn red dragon! This is the Underdark, not the surface. Put away your arrogant attitude, or you will pay the price!"
He didn't want to clash with this terrifying monster. Although the Underdark was his home turf, the size of the red dragon and the magic it emitted were simply too immense.
He had no desire to confront them unless absolutely necessary.
In fact, if Thor hadn't stepped into this cave of fungus people, this deep dragon wouldn't have shown itself at all, but would have simply kept its distance.
But these mushroom-like beings with psionic talents are extremely important to Deep Dragon. Both of them share the attributes of fungi and psionic energy, making them a perfect match.
If it could devour the Fungus King and take control of that fungal network, it would greatly benefit the growth of this deep dragon.
Perhaps this will allow us to transcend the threshold of the mundane and glimpse a corner of the legendary realm.
Therefore, he had no choice but to step forward and try to stop the red dragon's actions, preferably by making it leave without bloodshed, even if it meant sacrificing a small amount of treasure.
However, Thor's face was filled with deep contempt in the face of the dragon's words of weakness.
Sometimes he didn't even understand why such a thing could be classified as a true dragon, let alone sea dragons...
Shouldn't dragon turtles, rattlesnakes, and the like all be classified as dragon beasts?
"You rat that only dares to hide in the gutter, you crawling worm with mushrooms growing on your body, you thing without even decent wings, how dare you teach me how to do things?"
After saying that, Thor even disdainfully exhaled a puff of white vapor from his nostrils, which contained sparks that landed on the ground with a crackling sound.
The repeated discrimination caused the anger that the deep dragon had managed to suppress to reignite fiercely.
He was, after all, a mature dragon who had witnessed the rise and fall of the drow elves over the long years, and had once communicated with mind readers and manipulated the art of human nature. When had he ever been treated with such contempt?
He tossed his head, and the kobold corpse he was carrying in his mouth fell to the ground. He then opened his mouth and spat out a hazy breath at Thor.
A stream of air, a mixture of psionic energy and fungal spores, whistled sharply through the air, hurtling straight toward Thor's chest. But he didn't flinch; instead, a mocking smile played on his lips as he met the attack head-on.
The intense wind pressure made the flames on his body roar and sway backward, and the crimson scales exposed below were covered with a deep blackish-red color.
The fungal spores, barely visible to the naked eye, were instantly burned into wisps of smoke when exposed to temperatures of over a thousand degrees. The magic power contained within them collided violently with the dragon's energy, forming streaks of black and red lightning, yet they were still unable to break through the layer of scales.
As for the remaining psionic energy? It was nothing more than another manifestation of mental power, and it was instantly absorbed by the wheel in his mind, turning into a notification that flashed below his line of sight.
Mental Essence +1.
Mental Essence +1.
Mental Essence +1.
Thor slowly stepped forward, enduring the deep dragon's breath, and didn't forget to utter sarcastic remarks.
"Is this your breath as a true dragon? Too weak! It can't even penetrate my scales. What's the difference between it and bad breath!"
Seeing this scene before him, a deep shock instantly appeared in Shenlong's pale, childlike eyes.
This was completely unexpected for him. He thought that although he was no match for this red dragon, he could at least hold his own against it by taking advantage of the terrain.
But what's going on here? Even if the fungal spores in his breath are suppressed by the red dragon's high temperature, what about the remaining magic and psionic shocks? How come they have no effect at all?
This is definitely not an ordinary red dragon. Is it a bloodline mutation, or is it carrying some kind of powerful magical equipment?
Realizing something was wrong, Deep Dragon abruptly closed its gaping maw, abruptly stopping its unfinished breath, and turned to retreat.
However, it was too late to run away at that point.
Red dragons are already known for their powerful physiques, and Thor, with his various monster templates, has further enhanced speed, agility, and explosiveness.
When he saw that the ugly salamander in front of him was trying to escape, he suddenly pushed off with all his might, his powerful muscles bursting forth and his elastic tendons contracting, propelling his heavy body out like a cannonball.
He smashed through several stalagmites, each more than half a meter thick, in his path, sending shards of rock flying everywhere, but this did nothing to slow Thor down.
Just as the deep dragon turned its head and its upper body disappeared into a narrow cave, Thor was already behind it.
Its large claws suddenly stretched out, wreathed in flames, and reached for the slippery tail.
Sensing the approaching danger, the Deep Dragon's pupils suddenly shone brightly with white light. The invisible spiritual energy transformed into a powerful impact, trying to push Thor away, but it was unable to shake his heavy body at all.
Fortunately, thanks to the mutual force, he was able to escape much faster. His scaleless salamander-like body twisted quickly, and he was the first to squeeze into the crevice.
Thorn, who was right behind, crashed heavily into the rock wall. The narrow crevice could accommodate the slender Deep Dragon, but not his strong body.
With a deafening roar, he smashed through large swathes of rocks. Watching the fleeing wretch disappear into the distance, a cruel smile crept onto his lips.
"You think you can escape like this? You cowardly coward!"
