Chapter 196: The Declining Ancient Dragon Race!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Looking at Derek who had returned with battle scars all over his body, a smile appeared on Mike’s face.

Whether it was from the information panel or his aura, Derek’s strength had greatly increased.

Late-stage king-tier!

Mike had always been a little surprised in his heart.

Logically speaking, giant dragons like Tyrell and Barr would be faster than Derek when it came to leveling up.

Right now, his giant dragon battle team’s level was mostly at the late stage of the king-tier.

However, Derek relied on himself to bring his giant dragon battle team to the nature elf tribe. The giant dragons did not have the time to level up. He forcefully ate a large two-headed demon tribe to make up for his lack of experience!

This perseverance was worthy of praise!

In reality, just from Derek’s usual behavior, Mike had always used the dragons as a benchmark.

In order to protect the glory of the lord forever, his goal must not be simple!

Therefore, Derek never thought of himself as an earth dragon. Instead, he had always used the aptitude of a mutated Earth Dragon to chase after the Dragons.

After putting in so much effort, the results Derek obtained were also gratifying.

Derek had become a late-stage king-tier mutated earth dragon. By relying on his powerful dragon combat techniques, his close combat strength was stronger than any other earth dragon!

In the future, if an enemy were to attack the main castle one day, he would carry the earth dragon spear and become the greatest combat strength of his master!

“Very good Derek, I’ve always seen your hard work!”

“The Dragon Castle will never bury any talents that are worth nurturing!”

“I’ll help you improve your bloodline sooner or later, so that you’re not weaker than any of the dragons!”

Mike praised Derek.

Derek heard the praise, but the expression on him did not change. As if he had never cared about the rewards, he said solemnly.

“It is my honor to fight for the Lord! Your subordinate does not need any rewards. I will also sacrifice my life for the Lord!”

Mike listened to Derek’s serious words.

This kind of loyalty, even if it belonged to the general, Derek had really carried the name of the earth dragon general to the extreme.

The general was born to fight for the lord. He did not need any reason.

Mike was a little moved, then he smiled and nodded, “okay, I got it, Derek, you can take a rest first.”

“Yes, sir!”

Earth dragon general Derek finally got up and left with the earth dragon team.

…

On the other side, outside the castle.

At this time, Serena, who went out to hunt with the nature elves elders, had returned.

Serena and the others had just been chatting with their mother, Jonia.

At this moment, including them, the nature elves were all looking at the earth dragon team walking out of the castle.

Their expressions were stunned.

In addition to the earth dragon team, Jonia had also seen a group of dragon-blood soldiers doing the gathering of resources in front of the castle.

For the nature elves, such a scene was very shocking.

It was the first time they saw a human Castle Lord having his own believers. There were even so many types of believers.

Human soldiers, gnomes, even earth dragons, mutated earth dragons!

“Is this the Dragon Lord’s believer?”

Jonia murmured and sighed.

After all, the ancient battle of the gods was something that was passed down in her memory. She had never experienced it herself.

Ever since she was born thousands of years ago, this was the first time she felt such a true faith.

She did not know the situation outside the Dark Forest, so she did not dare to say.

However, inside the Dark Forest, the Dragon Lord was definitely the most orthodox and the only castle with the power of faith!

This was the path to becoming the god of faith after all. The current environment was only in the Dark Forest. It was already very good for the Dragon Lord to be able to do this.

“Moreover, if we divide it according to the path of living beings relying on the power of faith to become gods, the Dragon Lord has yet to build the Dragon King’s City or even the Dragon Church!”

“Right now, it’s only at the initial level of faith, but the followers under him are all fanatics!”

Fanatics were fanatics.

Under normal circumstances, based on the current scale of the Castle Lord’s forces, even if they had faith, it would only be a low-level faith with a skeptical attitude.

This kind of faith was not firm at all. It was the kind that would betray at any time after being instigated.

Only some empire-level forces relied on their powerful strength to have many fanatics follow them and beg for protection!

As for the Dragon Lord’s castle, even though the giant dragon was still at the king-tier and had yet to reach the saint-tier, all of his subordinates were fanatical believers.

This was enough to make Jonia forget to blink her eyes in surprise.

“As expected, the Dragon Lord is amazing!”

“The ability that the dragon Lord possesses is not something that an ancient tree spirit like me can guess.”

“Due to the arrogance of dragons, the appearance of a dragon clan in the past was a rare thing for the entire Endless Continent!”

“In the past, the dragon bloodline of the ancient dragon clan was extremely overbearing. It was also an existence that all living beings in the Endless Continent were afraid of!”

Jonia sighed in her heart.

At this point, Serena’s expression became a little doubtful. She looked at Jonia and asked, “Mother, since the ancient Dragon clan is so powerful, why is there so little information about them in the Endless Continent now?”

“Even our Dark Forest only has one dragon lair. The dragons living there are more scattered. They don’t have any rules, so they can’t be called a Dragon Clan, right?”

Listening to the question, Jonia’s expression suddenly flashed with pity as she slowly said.

“You’re right!”

“The dragon lair in the Dark Forest is just a group of giant dragons. Their strength is only at the king-tier, but their nature is violent. They can’t become anything!”

“In terms of strength and dragon bloodline, they are far inferior to the ancient dragon clan!”

“If the ancient dragon clan’s strength is compared to the ocean, then they can only be considered as a drop of water!”

Serena’s pupils dilated. “The ancient Dragon clan is so powerful!”

“According to the inherited memories in my mind, it is indeed so.”

Jonia nodded, and then said with a hint of regret. “However, the truth is just as you said!”

“Even if the ancient dragon clan is incomparably powerful, but tens of thousands of years have passed, the ancient dragon clan has finally declined under the baptism of internal strife and the ancient divine war!”

Jonia looked at Serena and the other nature elves and slowly explained.

“Although the ancient dragon clan is powerful, they are also incomparably arrogant. This point even makes them look down on their own kind!”

“Therefore, although the ancient dragon clan was like the nature elves who gathered together, they often fought among themselves and lost a lot of combat power.”

“With the invasion of the dimensional demon god and the ancient Divine War, the ancient dragon clan declined just like that.”
