Dragon.

dragon.

Before it died, it was at least a fourth-tier dragon.

"...It really came true."

Staring blankly at the enormous dragon corpse before him, Ares's eyes flashed with intense excitement. He turned to Chu Hao and said, "So, what's next..."

"God, enhance Ares's advanced summoning necromancer bloodline."

Before Ares could finish speaking, Chu Hao contacted the main god first, and smiled at him: "Go for it, Ares, I believe in you. After you've finished strengthening, try using necromancy on this corpse."

"By then, our Arctic team might also have a bone dragon."

"Bone dragon!"

Upon hearing those two words, Zhang Heng, his eyes gleaming, suddenly appeared out of nowhere. With a beaming expression, he rubbed his hands together like a fly and said to Ares in a fawning manner, "Um... Ares, after you finish the summoning, can I ride it for a bit?"

"I didn't mean anything by it, I just think the title 'Dragon Knight' sounds a tiny bit better than simply 'bone dragon,' after all, the Lich King also rode a bone dragon..."

Ares could no longer hear what was said after that; he simply smiled and closed his eyes within the enhanced pillar of light from the Supreme God…

...It's really great to be able to join the Arctic team.

……

"I see... Does this count as exploiting a bug?"

Looking at the dragon carcass in front of him, and considering Ares's identity as a necromancer, Yang Yun roughly understood his and Chu Hao's plans.

In the exchange system of the Main God Space, the food section has always been a peculiar place. Here, not only can you exchange for ordinary meat and vegetables, but you can also obtain various creatures as food... It should be noted that many food items are the complete corpses of animals, plants, and even extraordinary creatures. The wonder that Chu Hao and his companions discovered lies in this: the price of the dragon corpse, which is clearly marked as "food," is only one-tenth of that in the battle exchange section, or even lower.

Of course, the more powerful the creature, the more expensive its complete corpse. To be able to exchange less than five thousand reward points for such a massive fourth-tier dragon corpse is beyond what can be described as a "bargain." Although the valuable parts of this fallen dragon had already been taken—its precious dragon blood was completely collected, its internal organs were incomplete, and even the hardest pieces of its dragon bones had been stripped away—the majesty of this fourth-tier life form still pressed down on the surrounding air as if it were a tangible force. Death had not completely extinguished its terrifying power in life.

Most importantly, the massive skeleton of this dragon corpse still retains a relatively complete structure!
For a necromancer, this was excellent news. The blood and flesh on a corpse were useless burdens to Ares now; all he sought was the corpse's former strength and the quality of its skeleton… As for the energy contained within the corpse, that was merely icing on the cake.

The stronger the corpse was in life, and the more complete its skeleton, the more powerful the undead Ares could resurrect using his bloodline. And now, it's as if Ares only spent a little over four thousand reward points, without even using any side quests, to obtain such a superior "perfect vessel."

"...It seems there are still many things we haven't fully understood with the Supreme God."

Yang Yun gazed thoughtfully at the dragon corpse, realizing that Ares and Chu Hao must have found some subtle "gray area" in the rules of the main god. This operation was less about exploiting loopholes and more about a sophisticated interpretation of the exchange system, allowing them to exchange for a dragon corpse at a price far below normal.

In addition, Ares's bloodline is also a bug... For this young man, all he needs to do now is to infuse the corpse with enough necromantic energy and transform it into his own summoned creature. This dragon bone can then become the most loyal war machine, whose combat power is conservatively estimated to reach the peak of the third tier.

What's even more remarkable is that, as an undead creation, it neither tires nor fears, becoming the most reliable killing weapon on the battlefield... Although it also has requirements for its own qualities, this quality as a summoner surpasses that of Shiva-Gantian, the captain of the Indian team, by far. It can be said that the combination of the food supply area and the bloodline of the summoning necromancer complements each other, achieving a synergistic effect far greater than the sum of its parts.

To be honest, there are many similar "unconventional exchanges" in the Main God Space, and there are exchanges that are far more powerful than this. For example, there's the telekinetic floating cannon that Yang Yun longed for when he first entered the Main God Space, which could kill those below the fourth rank like slaughtering chickens and dogs; and there's the Windrunner's Bow, which both Zhang Hengs from the two universes exchanged for without prior arrangement, and which practically screamed "overpowered"...

Furthermore, in the God Realm, a place fraught with danger yet brimming with opportunities, the ability to discern loopholes in the rules is a hallmark of a top-tier strategist. Reality is not a game; there is no such thing as "disrupting the balance." Just like Chu Xuan's brilliant "rule interpretations" back then, or Yang Yun's repeated unconventional "operations," these flashes of wisdom that walk the edge of the God Realm's laws are precisely the ultimate embodiment of the art of survival.

It's important to know that Chu Xuan's claim to fame was overcoming the "God's" restrictions to bring back a considerable amount of data and blueprints to the real world, fulfilling his father's wish; similarly, Adam used "a lie that guides the truth" to leave behind relevant information, thereby planting Xie Luyin as an undercover agent within the Central Continent team... Even the fourth-tier assassin from the Zhao family's ancestor successfully overcame the God's "not to reveal the existence of the God's space," making relevant information known to others, didn't he?
Yang Yun managed to remain calm, admitting that he hadn't foreseen Chu Hao and Ares's ingenious maneuvering and that his understanding of the main god's rules was still insufficient. However, Varo, standing to the side, was completely unable to maintain his composure. The green herb slime's body churned violently, its surface constantly bubbling and collapsing with a gurgling sound, much like a pot of boiling potion.

"How could this be..." A murky vortex rose within Varo's green body, its voice distorted into a comical tremor, as if symbolizing its inner turmoil: "It doesn't make sense..."

"What makes no sense?" Yang Yun asked with great interest. He had to admit that seeing the other party like this was a novel experience.

“Naturally, it’s the ‘main god’…”

Varo had only uttered half a sentence when he realized his slip of the tongue and immediately shut his mouth, refusing to utter a single word regardless of the reactions from the outside world. Seeing this, Yang Yun could only give up on pressing the matter and instead looked towards the main god in mid-air…

—Since it's the ingredients section… does that mean it's not just limited to animal carcasses? Anything that can be used to make a dish can be exchanged, right? (End of Chapter)
