Chapter 1, The Hatchling Dragon
A lava dragon hatchling
After all, this is indeed the most vulnerable hatching period for him; it will take approximately one hour before his body allows him to engage in more activity
If one were to force a metaphor, it would be a power bank
The last memory is of that person pouring one peculiar solution after another into the dragon egg in a room filled with various reagents and bottles. The final consciousness within the dragon egg faded to black, and the memory ended there
Then he kept moving, hurrying along the way, and he was placed in a basket
These issues remain unresolved
If we speak of a common dragon egg, it is possible that the hatchling inside has already perished
Unless this Dragonborn has not undergone any systematic training, that is to say, is not a professional.
However, the eggs of the lava dragon differ from those of the colorful dragon and the metallic dragon in one particular aspect
He is all alone.
This is ... ...
When the dragon egg leaves the nest, its rocky shell allows it to remain immersed in temperatures exceeding 200 degrees, preventing temperature fluctuations that could lead to hatching failure. However, this protection lasts only for a period of ten days and is a one-time use; after that, it will shed on its own
There are indeed many obscure and lesser-known professions, of which only a few are recorded in the Chronicles of the Dragon's Legacy
At that time, the Dragon Mother would also begin to exercise a certain level of caution towards her offspring. Once the young dragons entered their adolescent stage, she would no longer allow them to enter her treasure lair
Aio Continent, deities, their followers, humans, the Five-Colored Dragon Clan, the Metal Dragon Clan, and one's own identity
Then why does my memory recall that the Lava Dragon Mother takes care of her young until they reach adolescence
After finishing his meal, he finally began to stretch his body and smacked his lips.
Classified under the Yalong race, along with dragon people and dragon beasts, they fall into the same broad category
It seems that the hatchling dragon originally in the dragon egg was killed by that alchemical monster; otherwise, it would not have been able to occupy the nest and take over the body of the hatchling dragon.
Gadon Auduin Targaryen
Her vertical pupils were nervously narrowing to a pinprick, and her whole body was trembling incessantly; he had no doubt that she would foam at the mouth in the next moment
As a dessert, the taste is acceptable, somewhat resembling the texture of diluted wild honey, mildly sweet
However, the residual consciousness within the dragon egg provided him with the answer; the dragon egg retains memories during the final quarter of the hatching process
Under the erosion of time, the curved rock walls still bear deep and profound cracks, one after another
If he were an onlooker, he would surely be amazed, but experiencing it firsthand, he only feels as if his internal organs are about to be turned inside out
He was stolen away by someone, leaving the lair of the Dragon Mother
... ...
He needs to consume a large amount of food, absorb nutrients, and replenish his energy
The rocky shell contains magma, which allows the lava dragon babies inside to grow healthier. At the same time, in certain situations where it becomes necessary to relocate from their nests, it also serves a protective function.
However, the consciousness of the hatchling dragon from the dragon egg, even if it escaped a calamity due to its rocky shell, cannot escape the clutches of humanity.
Only the dragon beasts fear the might of the hatchling dragon, and only those devoid of intelligence would mistake a hatchling dragon for a fully grown true dragon
The male and female passengers in the cabin simultaneously fell silent, yet under the violently roaring storm that surged in through the broken door, their silence appeared so pale and powerless
The sound of clattering was precisely the noise made by her chattering teeth as she trembled in fear
If it is the Mother of Dragons, who is heavily greedy for wealth, she will directly drive away the young dragon that has just become a juvenile from the nest
A sudden sound of trembling and clattering came from behind, the noise was very faint, yet loud enough in the silent environment
The true name of the dragon that every true dragon possesses, as he pondered why he knew these things, a torrent of chaotic and disordered memories surged into his not-so-large mind.
That is the rocky shell, which is one and a half times larger than the largest red dragon egg.
Fortunately, his soul strength is sufficiently great, and he is not an ordinary hatchling dragon; otherwise, it would be difficult for him to accept such a vast inheritance of dragon knowledge.
Just as he began to ponder the philosophical questions of where he came from and where he was going
I ~ ''
It is not often that Dragonborn witness a whelp emanating draconic might and trembling in fear
Well, it feels like being seventy percent full
He turned to face the dragon head, which was somewhat larger in proportion to his body, and then, under the gaze of the dark golden vertical pupils, he saw a girl not far away
Upon seeing her vertical pupils, the dragon legacy deeply buried in his heart naturally provided him with answers.
However, he soon began to wonder, where was his mother? This place did not seem like a suitable hiding spot for such a massive creature.
After all, dragon eggs cannot be moved during the incubation period; otherwise, there is a chance that the hatchling inside may fail to hatch, resulting in the death of the hatchling before it is born
A rustling sound.
He began sitting in the dragon egg, nibbling at the nearest dragon shell with a chomp-chomp sound, not even having the time to clean the slime off his body.
The fragments of a dragon egg that has hatched are an excellent choice, as they contain abundant minerals and the energy most needed by the hatchling dragon
When I opened my eyes again, the view was mostly shrouded in darkness, with only a faint light seeping through the edge of a gap.
In the final moments of memory, he felt the force of rapid descent, as if his body were about to ignite, searing hot
Meal preparation
It is understandable why this human female trembles in fear at the sight of a hatchling dragon the size of a foal
At that time, he was also calling out, but he couldn't quite remember what he was saying, only that he knew.
It resembles the rumbling sound of a train, but is sharper and more piercing; yet, one cannot help but utter a series of strange and convoluted phrases from the throat
Then it came to an abrupt halt
However, what concerned him more was his own hand, or rather, his paw
Fragments of memory quietly emerged, and only after experiencing them as if they were his own did he understand why he had become this way
It was like a portal spell, directly teleporting it from the volcano's crater to the desert, with the endless expanse of yellow sand being the only impression
Is there not?
But why did it end up in this place in the end? What exactly does that alchemical monster want to do?
The term "professionals" naturally refers to basic classes such as mages, warriors, druids, warlocks, rogues, and rangers
It was not until approximately seven sunsets later that we arrived at an underground laboratory beneath a mansion in a coastal city
Therefore, he can only allow that female to continue trembling under the dragon's might; what lies before him now is the foremost task following the hatching of the hatchling dragon
It was only after the last fragment of the black and gray eggshell, adorned with a hint of fiery patterns, was consumed by him that he finally experienced a slight sense of fullness
Because she is a Dragonborn, possessing the bloodline of a dragon, albeit in a lesser quantity, resulting in only her eyes taking on a draconic appearance, while the rest of her body remains indistinguishable from that of a human
However, in the ten years before and after the incubation period
Larger than a domestic cat, but smaller than a foal, a genuine dragon cub of authentic quality
However, it seems as if he views the world through a pair of sunglasses, perceiving everything in black and white, or perhaps mixed with other colors tinged with black
The black-green moss, the gray-white rock wall devoid of any color, smooth and seemingly artificially carved
He stood up, but quickly sat back down unconsciously, his dark golden vertical pupils appearing somewhat dull.
To be precise, a human female with short silver hair and black vertical pupils, not exceeding the age of ten, is sitting on a dirty mat
This refers to the age of humans around 16 to 25 years, during which young creatures develop a certain desire to collect treasures and establish territories, prompting them to leave their nests and either establish territories alone or in groups of several dragons
He is very clear about what he is saying, this is his name, Gendon Auduin Targaryen
It will not allow the young to grow up alone as a dragon, especially since a clutch of dragon eggs typically contains 2 to 5 eggs, and he has not yet seen his siblings.
He merely glanced at her and decided to temporarily ignore her, without any intention of putting away Long Wei
At this moment, the dragon egg of the lava dragon finally settled down completely
Then he leisurely licked the slime off his body until it was clean
It measures a full 5 feet in length and weighs as much as 100 pounds
It was not until he carefully cleared away the debris-like fragments beside his eyes with his new, somewhat curled claws still covered in mucus that his vision was restored
He wanted to say something, but found that what came out was a low growl resembling that of a beast
The last memory in his mind was of Thomas spinning at an altitude of 30,000 feet above the ground
