Chapter 455 Studying Journalism
"No need, business is more important," Jiang Shaoxu said softly.
"The business is over long ago; this is just a courtesy visit," Xu Fang said. "Sea Abyss Dragon Mirages are very rare. If we miss this opportunity, we don't know when we'll be able to see one again."
As the saying goes, it's easy to stir a large vat with a toothpick, but difficult to plug the eye of a needle with an iron pestle.
The abyssal dragon clam, a species with dragon parents and clam parents whose sizes differ by tens of times, may only produce offspring in tens of thousands of pairs!
"Can outsiders participate in this competition?" Xu Fang asked.
"What, you want to participate?" Sophia looked Xu Fang up and down, then snorted, "This is a dragon fighting competition, only dragon tamers can participate. Do you have a dragon?"
—You little vixen, put a live dragon down below your brother!
Xu Fang smiled and said, "Perfect timing. Grand Duchess Eileen said she'd like to show us how to tame a dragon. Why don't we just tame one on the spot?"
"Trained on the spot?" Sophia thought to herself that she had heard the biggest joke in the world: "You think dragons are like cats and dogs on the street?"
Her attitude was visibly cold, and Xu Fang had no idea what he had done to offend her.
But it doesn't matter anymore. I've offended countless people over the years, so one more won't make a difference.
"Grand Duchess Eileen, would it be alright if we joined in the fun?" Xu Fang asked with a smile.
“Of course,” Eileen readily agreed.
Sophia exclaimed, "Big sister! This is an event for the aristocracy; they weren't even invited!"
“The people I brought, if I say they have them, then they have them,” Eileen said calmly.
Sofia was speechless after being interrupted by a single sentence. She wanted to argue back but didn't know what to say, so she could only stand resentfully at the back.
"What's going on?" Xu Fang asked.
Eileen said, "Sophia has always been obsessed with Zhelu, and she was there when our two countries had their final match."
"Oh." Xu Fang suddenly realized.
I can imagine this scene.
A little girl cheered on her crush, but the seemingly invincible crush was defeated by another person in a near-crushing manner.
Giving someone the cold shoulder, that's perfectly reasonable, isn't it?
······
Xu Fang never imagined that he would have to drive a car to get into his own home.
As the vehicle passed a garden, Xu Fang saw some people carefully pruning the trees. Before he could figure out what was going on, the vehicle stopped in front of a huge building.
“You two can stay here. This area is my private property, so there’s no need to follow any rules.”
Eileen led the two upstairs and beckoned to a waiter nearby:
"These two are my most honored guests. They will be staying here for a while, so please take good care of them."
Eileen turned to Xu Fang and said, "I'll go prepare for Yalong first. You guys go wash up and rest first."
Led by a waiter, the two were led into a huge guest room, which was basically equivalent to a three-bedroom apartment.
Jiang Shaoxu was going to take a shower, and Xu Fang, adhering to the principle of saving water, wanted to shower with her, but the girl threw various small clothes at him.
"We've been married for so long, it's not like we haven't met before."
"Go away!"
"I call this saving water, isn't that a virtue?"
"Go away!"
mean.
Xu Fang sat on the sofa in the guest room and picked up the remote control to turn on the TV.
Coincidentally, the TV channel was broadcasting Grand Duke Irene's visit to China, where she won over the other party with her elegant demeanor and powerful personal charm, securing the order.
On television, Grand Duke Eileen was as exquisite as a doll displayed in a shop window, every smile and gesture exuding aristocratic charm.
From this perspective, Xu Fang and his group seem more like supporting characters accompanying the Grand Duke on the red carpet.
—Even though it's the same scene, Xu Fang is undoubtedly the center of attention on CCTV-1.
All I can say is that he studied journalism.
at the same time.
In another room, Sofia held her phone, muttering nervously, "Answer it, answer it, you have to answer it!"
The call is connected.
Sofia's eyes lit up, and she said eagerly, "Brother Zheluo, I didn't expect you to handle this so well..."
"Xu Fang came to your house?"
"Yes, my older sister invited him. Brother Zheluo, I really want to..."
Are you at your house now?
Sofia's expression was like she had eaten a soft, sticky snack. She wanted to express her longing and love, but she was interrupted twice.
Seeing that Sophia remained silent, Zheluo pressed on, "Is Xu Fangfang here?"
"He's here! He's here!" Sofia said unhappily, "How about we stop talking and I go to his room to give him the phone!"
"Row."
Sofia: "..."
For the first time in my life, I felt the urge to hang up on Zheluo.
Just then, Zheluo's voice rang out again: "Forget it, let's not give it to him."
Sofia's mood brightened, and a happy smile appeared on her face: "Exactly, what's the big deal about meeting..."
"I'll go over there myself!"
Click!
After hanging up the phone, Sofia remained silent for a long time before slowly getting up, her steps inexplicably unsteady.
······
While Jiang Shaoxu was taking a shower, Xu Fang was on the phone with Zhan Kong.
"A dragon beast? That's great! We need that!"
Zhan Kong said, "You don't know this because you haven't come to the east. The sea monsters are so dense that you can hardly see the tide. Our Sky Eagle and Pink Pufferfish can't do much."
He and Nie Lengshan were sent to support the eastern coastal areas, and they are currently in the Jiaodong region.
Along with them, five thousand military mages from Jinlin City were also transferred, including many Eagle Mages and Dolphin Mages.
No one expected that when they actually faced the siren, the weakness in the bloodline of Sky Eagle and Pink Pufferfish would be revealed. They were too frightened to continue charging as soon as they sensed the powerful aura.
The military and hunters operate in slightly different ways.
With fewer hunters, they can move around more freely, and even if they encounter some danger and split up to regroup, there are no problems.
Military operations are different; they involve a large number of people, and if they encounter a demon's lair, they have to detour because they spend all their time avoiding the demon hordes.
Military units, especially those with mounts and tamed beasts, can usually traverse dangerous terrain directly with their superior strength. Unless they encounter mindless creatures like undead, they will mostly retreat.
To ensure a smoother mission, animal taming is crucial.
The higher the bloodline and the stronger the combat power, the greater the role that taming beasts can play.
In this respect, the advantages of dragon beasts are almost unique. There are also some high-bloodline eagles, but their numbers are still far too few.
"Last time, a lot of people in Shanghai held an auction and they were making a big fuss about dragon beasts. I believed them!"
Suffering greatly from his terrible mount, Zhan Kong kept grumbling, much like a complaining woman at the village entrance:
"And what happened? After traveling all that way, we found out it was just a lizard demon mixed with some kind of ghost dragon bloodline, and it had the nerve to ask for so much money!"
Xu Fang reassured him, "After we return this time and deal with the demons of Dongting Lake, I will lead a squad of dragons to support you and make you a dragon knight!"
—Of course, not the male dragons that Eileen delivered. Those were precious breeding dragons, meant to respond to the call to create more dragon offspring.
Xu Fang plans to purchase a team of dragon beasts and form a dragon knight brigade in the name of the Jinlin Military Region.
Money is meant to be spent.
Jinlin City has so much money in its accounts, is it wrong for me to spend some to buy dozens of dragons?
Zhan Kong was of course in full agreement. The Victoria family was a renowned dragon-taming family, and their dragon beasts would be enough to transform the Jinlin Military Region!
Chapter 456 Jiang Shaoxu Tames the Dragon
Victoria, Dragon Training Ground.
This is a vast expanse of land, surrounded by majestic mountains, with thick, ring-shaped clouds forming a barrier that isolates it from the outside world.
"Actually, you're right about one thing. Although it doesn't sound good, there's not much difference between taming dragons and taming pigs and dogs in the village."
Eileen said, "From the young dragons, our dragon trainers have to constantly strengthen their training and build trust."
Unlike pigs and dogs, dragons are extremely dangerous creatures; if not properly trained, they can easily go berserk and injure people!
The extremely high casualty rate once deterred dragon trainers—but the Victoria family offered so much that they felt their lives were cheap.
"Those participating in the Dragon Fighting Tournament are mostly young masters and ladies with limited strength. Choosing a sub-dragon of the level of a Great General would be sufficient."
Eileen led the two inside.
As we passed a small hill, a fiery pseudo-dragon, over ten meters long, lay prostrate on it, its face etched with impatience.
The young dragon tamer opposite it was clearly getting impatient, loudly repeating the word "fire".
"He's using a mental attack," Jiang Shaoxu whispered.
Reciting the words while experiencing a mental shock—what kind of conditioned reflex is this?
It's confirmed: Pavlov's classic theory of reflection is indeed present in the magical dimension!
However, this dragon tamer's methods were clearly somewhat clumsy; he enhanced it, but not in the right place.
