Red Dragon has magic

Chapter 24 The Needs of the Young Dragons

Leon didn't bother to remember when he last had a physical examination.

No matter how big it was before, it is in the past, and the current data is more important.

The human life cycle has two rapid growth stages. The first peak is from infant to toddler, and the second peak is from adolescence to young adulthood. After young adulthood, there is almost no growth. In fact, dragons are similar. The growth rate from young dragons to young dragons is quite fast. The medium size directly changes to large size, and it will not become super large until young adulthood.

Because of Leon's breathing method, with the help of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and the moon, he has grown even bigger than a normal red dragon. A simple observation shows that his length is now more than twice that when he left the mother dragon's territory. Including his neck and tail, it is probably close to eight meters, and his body length alone is close to three meters, but his standing height is less than two meters.

From the initial size of a cheetah, to the size of a leopard a month later, to the size of a lion and tiger when he was driven away by the mother dragon, he now looks like a car. If he stands up with his legs and tail, he is taller than a floor.

Next, compared to the rest of the body, his head still seemed too big, but his spines and horns had grown a lot longer, and he looked a lot more ferocious, turning into the appearance of a baby dragon, although still full of childishness.

In the end, the scales were still the same color as before, still a shining scarlet, completely unlike a normal red dragon whose scales would turn into a duller crimson as they age.

Leon tried it and he could easily push down a tree as thick as an adult's thigh. He scratched the trunk with his claws and deep claw marks were immediately visible to the naked eye. He felt that if he could do it again, he could easily overthrow the giant owl bear that had previously suppressed him in terms of strength and size, and had relied on the Samadhi True Fire to turn the tables.

The physical strength has been obvious, and the mana has also become much deeper. However, the Samadhi Fire can only be used once during a long rest, but the duration is definitely more than the original three seconds, a great improvement... The mana consumed to open the breath weapon and ignite the Samadhi Fire is different from the maintenance.

After stretching his body, Leon estimated his challenge level. In terms of melee combat ability alone, his challenge level is at least level 5. If he takes into account sword-controlling skills, immobilization skills, and Samadhi True Fire, level 7 should not be a problem... Wait, there is a problem here.

It turned out that because he had not encountered any decent enemies, he had not used sword-wielding skills for a long time. He mainly relied on the immobilization technique to control the prey, and then directly used his sharp teeth and claws to tear the prey into pieces and feast on it. Only today did he realize that his sword seemed a little small.

It's not that his sword has become smaller, but that he has become bigger, so the sword seems smaller accordingly. It used to look very decent in his hand, but now it feels like a children's toy, or at best a dagger. It feels a bit embarrassing.

Sword, he now had to figure out how to get a suitable sword.

In the whistling wind, Leon thought carefully about where to find a weapon suitable for him.

The weapons of humanoids, even the greatsword, seemed a little small for him.

Of course, there is no shortage of various large monsters in this world, many of which can use weapons, such as the Balrog, which can use long swords. Their long swords are definitely suitable for Leon. The challenge level of the Balrog is higher than that of an adult red dragon.

In addition, the giants are five or six meters tall, and their weapons are definitely suitable for Leon... The lowest-sequence hill giants also keep owlbears as pets.

It turns out that custom-made products are the best, but where can he find someone to help him with custom-made products?

Going to the town to find human craftsmen would definitely not work, but maybe going to the gray dwarves could be a try, those lawful evil guys... If he is not strong enough, they will definitely not mind killing him, and if he is strong enough, they can trade normally.

Here comes another problem: he has no money.

Or just let it go? Give up the sword-controlling technique for now, or maybe just keep using the original sword.

Leon thought for a moment, and suddenly thought of that group of bootlickers.

Those kobolds are undoubtedly good at digging. Their talents are similar to those of dwarves. They have an almost intuitive sense of judging the softness and hardness of stones and soil. They are also capable scavengers, but I have never heard of any of them being able to forge... It doesn't hurt to ask. He usually ignores them, but thinks of them as soon as he has time. Leon thinks he is a bit of a green tea, but he doesn't care so much.

With the attitude of trying everything possible, Leon found the residence of the ogres. As soon as he landed on the ground, a ogres who were on guard discovered his tracks.

As Leon yawned, a large group of dog-headed men emerged from the holes one after another and ran in front of him. The one leading the dog-headed men was Hawks. As a red dragon, his memory was perfect, even if it was just a name he had heard a long time ago, he could still remember it.

"Welcome to the great red dragon."

"Your humble servant awaits your orders."

Hawks looked at Leon with admiration and couldn't help but said, "Long time no see, you have grown bigger, more beautiful and majestic."

Leon was a little flattered by the flattery. He bared his teeth and got straight to the point: "Can you forge?"

"We are good at digging. We can help Lord Red Dragon expand his lair, and we can also help Lord Red Dragon mine." Hawks felt a little regretful that there were no minerals here, otherwise if he dug out a lot of gold, he would be sure that the red dragon would gladly accept everyone's loyalty.

Answering a question that is not related to the question is also an answer.

Things really weren't that simple. The red dragon was a little disappointed and said, "I don't need help to widen the cave. I just need forging."

"What does Lord Red Dragon need to forge?" Hawks asked cautiously, worried that the Red Dragon might suspect him of having ulterior motives.

Leon stared at the kobold, and after a moment's silence, he said, "I need a sword...at least that long." He raised his claws and gestured.

"What does Lord Red Dragon need the sword for?" The kobold had never seen Leon use the sword-wielding technique, and his little head couldn't figure out what the connection was between the red dragon and the sword.

Leon squinted his eyes at the dog-headed man. This time he did not answer the other party's question and said, "You don't need to know that."

"Yes, yes." Hawks immediately knelt down trembling all over.

Leon sighed, did not make things difficult for the group of gnolls, and spread his wings to leave.

"We don't know how to forge, but we can find a way to get the sword for Lord Red Dragon." Hawks found that Lyon was preparing to take off, and his voice was full of anxiety.

"Oh...what's the solution?" Leon's eyes lit up, thinking, is this the so-called unexpected turn of events?

"Aunt Peggy." The kobold said, "We can go to Aunt Peggy. I'm sure she has a solution."

Leon nodded thoughtfully. He roughly guessed who the so-called Aunt Peggy was.
