Red Dragon has magic

Chapter 129 Volcano
Lyon had seen dwarves in Fork Road City, both ordinary dwarves and gray dwarves. Those dwarves were generally a head shorter than humans, or even more, but were particularly sturdy, and their weight might be even greater than that of humans who were much taller than them.

Leon was not interested in dwarves, but he was quite interested in Hammerburg because he had never seen a dwarf fortress and heard that its style was completely different from human buildings.

Leon wants to go to Hammerburg.

He was not afraid of the Dwarf Lord who was said to be able to defeat a red dragon alone. After all, he was not planning to appear in the sky above Ironhammer Castle in dragon form to provoke the Dwarf Lord. He just wanted to enter Ironhammer Castle in human form to take a look. If he was unfortunately discovered, could he not escape even if he could not defeat him?
Of course Cecilia had something to say. You are a red dragon. A young dragon has the physique of a young dragon. Now you have reached a super-large size and mastered endless magical spells. I am just an ordinary green dragon. I don't have the courage to act presumptuously under the nose of a powerful dwarf territory.

She knew that Leon never cared for women, and sometimes he insisted on gender equality to a terrifying degree. People who didn't know him would think that he had been badly hurt by a woman in the past, and then either died in silence or exploded in silence, and hurriedly told more information about Hammer Castle.

Ironhammer Castle is a dwarven city. Except for a few humans, mainly familiar merchants, no one else is welcome to visit because the block-headed dwarves believe that humans will bring chaos. Unless introduced by an acquaintance, don't even think of entering.

"Is that so? Don't lie to me."

Lyon is just a little interested in Hammer Castle, it's not something he has to go to. Since it's inconvenient to get in, he won't go. Anyway, the Lost Plateau is so big, there are plenty of places to go.

Mountain goats are too small and can only be used as food, not for riding. The camels were replaced with giant goats, and the two of them rode the giant goats out of the town and went deep into the Lost Plateau. There was no specific destination, so they just went wherever they went. If they couldn't go any further, they could just revert to dragon form.

"I thought there would be a lot of trees here, but it's so desolate, without even a blade of grass." As a green dragon, Cecilia is most concerned about greening. "Without a single tree, how do the dwarves live? How do they burn the stove without trees and firewood? Do they rely entirely on lava?"

"Coal is enough." Lyon's geographical knowledge is average, relying entirely on stereotypes, "Such a desolate mountain must have a lot of coal mines."

"It's clearly a plateau, there's not a single snow-capped mountain," said Cecilia.

"Who told you that there must be snow-capped mountains on the plateau... We are now on the outskirts of the Lost Plateau, and we should see snow-capped mountains when we get inside." Leon thought for a moment and said, "I can't guarantee it."

Leon had very good eyesight and could see the dragon flying over the mountains at a glance.

“What are you looking at?” Cecilia followed Leon’s line of sight and said, “That’s a flying dragon, right?”

"Yes, flying dragons." Leon said, "I used to be very afraid of encountering flying dragons. I was afraid that I couldn't beat them, and I couldn't run away from them. For this reason, I dared to crawl on the ground most of the time, and I didn't dare to fly in the sky."

The flying dragon has two scaly legs and a pair of tough wings. Its tail is strong and powerful, with a poisonous stinger at the end. It is said that the toxin in the stinger can kill a creature within seconds. It is indeed very powerful. Every time it appears, it often causes panic on the borders of civilization.

“A mere flying dragon…” Cecilia looked down on the flying dragon. “My master is actually afraid of flying dragons.”

"Everyone has a childhood..." Leon thought that when he was a young dragon, he was afraid of flying dragons. In fact, at that time, he stayed in the mother dragon's territory and didn't need to worry about the threat of flying dragons. Although he was expelled by the mother dragon later, he mastered the Samadhi True Fire. "Weren't you afraid when you were a child?"

"I can only say that I'm not very scared." Cecilia thought for a moment and said, "Although they are raised by their mother, you know, flying dragons are close relatives of dragons, but they still lack intelligence, which means they are a little more cunning than ordinary beasts."

"Oh, Master, do you know?" Cecilia said excitedly, "Dragon toxin can burn the victim's heart and arteries through the returning blood. It is quite deadly and can be used for alchemy and to poison weapons. It is very valuable."

"I support you to fly over now and kill that dragon and bring it back." Leon said, "All the venom will be yours... I just want to taste the dragon meat. I haven't eaten it yet."

"If my brother wants to try the flying dragon meat, I'll go right away." Cecilia was eager to try.

"You should deal with those goblins first." Leon found a group of goblins surrounding him.

Plains, plateaus, deserts, forests... no matter what the terrain is, there will always be goblins.

"Master, leave it to me." Cecilia drove the giant goat closer to the goblins. As a young dragon, she had already mastered the terrifying majesty. It might not be useful against powerful enemies, but it was very effective against weak enemies. With a shout of "Get lost", the goblins were scared and fled in a panic. They didn't even pick up their weapons when they dropped them, and some of them might even wet their pants.

Seeing this scene, Leon was really envious. After all, he had not yet mastered the fire breath, only the Samadhi True Fire. It was conceivable that he would not be able to master it in the future, and of course he would not be able to master the terrifying majesty. The terrifying majesty was not based on the appearance of scary people, but was completely a kind of spell-like ability.

No one seemed to care about the rats and bugs that suddenly jumped out from the roadside. Both of them ignored the goblins and continued riding the giant goats until they encountered a petrified lizard.

"I was wondering why there were stone statues on the roadside. I thought they were carved by the dwarves out of boredom, but it turned out to be a petrified lizard." Cecilia sat on the giant goat and looked at the petrified lizard with eight legs.

"You don't need my help?" Leon said.

After Leon finished speaking, he saw Cecilia with her shoulders slumped looking at him with resentful eyes, and explained: "If you were in dragon form, I believe that a breath of poisonous breath would be enough to take half the life of that petrified lizard, and then a slap and a bite would end the battle, but you are in human form." "There is no problem in human form." Cecilia said as she jumped off the giant goat and rushed towards the petrified lizard.

The petrified lizard was clumsy and slow, and it wasn't difficult to deal with it as long as you avoided its petrifying gaze... Well, it wasn't that easy to deal with, at least Cecilia was in human form right now, her strength and physique were greatly reduced, her agility had no room to decrease, she didn't have any professional levels, and she didn't know any spells, so it was extremely difficult to fight her.

Leon couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he helped Cecilia and used a palm thunder to hit the petrified lizard, leaving it burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.

Cecilia looked at the smoking petrified lizard and did not feel that Leon looked down on her by helping her. Instead, she cheered and said, "Brother is worried that I will get hurt and cares about me, right?"

"I kind of doubt whether you did it on purpose." Lyon said.

It was the first time for Leon to see a petrified lizard. He didn't mind trying it, and then he knew what it meant to be tasteless. Compared to the food he had eaten in the town not long ago, the meat of the petrified lizard was simply hard to swallow.

After encountering the petrified lizard, the two did not encounter any decent monsters for the next two days. After all, they had been moving along the mountain road, and there must be very few monsters on the mountain road. If any monster appeared occasionally, it would probably be quickly conquered.

They were walking on the road, and there were forks in the mountain road from time to time. There were no signboards or maps along the way, so naturally the two seemed a little lost.

"Where are we now?" Leon asked, "We are not going to turn back in the middle of our journey, are we?"

Lyon planned to cross the Lost Plateau to visit the seaside, and didn't want to get lost in the mountains and go in circles.

"I don't know." Cecilia looked up at the sky, "I'll fly up to the sky to help the master."

As Cecilia spoke, she regained her dragon form and turned into a green dragon. The giant goat she was riding was immediately frightened and ran away, then flapped its wings twice and flew into the sky.

Leon was also very curious about where they were now and how long it would take to cross the Lost Plateau. However, before he could return to dragon form, Cecilia circled and landed.

"I saw a volcano," Cecilia said excitedly, "A mountain that emits smoke must be a volcano."

Leon looked up and said, "Why can't I see any smoke?"

"Because the volcano is quite far away, the smoke is not very big," Cecilia said. "By the time the smoke reaches the height you can see, it will have been blown away by the wind."

"Ok."

"Should we fly over and take a look?" Cecilia asked.

"Do you think this place is good?"

After two days of walking and looking around, Leon was not too interested in the Lost Plateau. Of course, it was okay to see the scenery. He believed that there must be a lot of minerals here, but that was it. Even if he found a volcano, he had no interest in building a nest there. It would be better to stay in the lava lake.

Leon, who has a human soul, cannot stay in the mountains for a long time. When he was in the desert, he spent more than half of his time in the oasis city.

"Hmm... I'm not optimistic. It feels like there's nothing but mountains." Cecilia observed and said, "I'm just a little curious. Is the smoke about to erupt? A volcanic eruption."

"I can only say it's possible." Leon had never seen a volcanic eruption. "Let's go and take a look. In which direction is the volcano?"

"Master, are you planning to walk over there?" Cecilia said worriedly. "It may take several days to walk over there."

“Of course I fly over.” In fact, Leon was tired of walking, so he decisively returned to his dragon form and looked back at the giant goat. The giant goat he was riding was also scared away.

Leon also saw the smoking volcano and flapped his wings to fly over. Cecilia followed closely behind him. The two dragons flew towards the smoking volcano one after the other. A journey that would take several days by riding a giant goat was now reached in just a few tens of minutes.

"There seems to be a fight ahead." Cecilia said sharply.
