Dota: Becoming a God Starting with Dragon Knight

"You should have heard Lina mention that I have an item that can unleash tornadoes."

"After escaping from the bone dragon, I used that item to create a tornado and slowly lowered myself down."

"Oh, right! When I was in the air, I also saw that bone dragon being blasted to the ground by a huge pillar of light. I wonder where it ended up."

Li Ming recounted with great enthusiasm a legendary story of how he bravely fought the bone dragon and helped the golden dragon suppress it.

"You mean, that bone dragon was eventually sealed in the Elf Forest?" Isadora asked seriously.

Li Ming tried hard to recall the scene in his mind. At that time, his mind was in a mess, and he couldn't see many things clearly. He could only vaguely remember that there were large areas of green below, which should be a forest.

"I think so! Anyway, when I was in the sky, I saw a vast forest below. In the end, I landed next to the Voice of the Elves, so that forest must be the Elf Forest."

"I see!" Isadora understood something and fell into deep thought.

"Mom—" Lina, dressed in military uniform, ran into the garden.

The moment she saw Li Ming, she immediately stopped and became much more restrained.

"Li Ming, what are you doing here?"

Li Ming replied, "I came over to discuss some business with Auntie."

"Mom~ You bought equipment again?" Lina looked at Isadora in confusion. She remembered that the Royal Guard hadn't recruited any new members recently, and the equipment she bought last time was rejected by the Guard. Not many people chose it, and a lot of it was still lying in the warehouse.

Isadora seemed not to hear Lina's cries; she sat motionless in her chair, saying nothing.

"Mom?" Lina called out again when Isadora didn't respond, but there was still no response.

She asked Li Ming worriedly, "What happened to my mom?"

Li Ming shrugged. "I don't know. I just told a story, and that's how my aunt ended up."

"What story?" Lina didn't believe it. Isadora was a demigod who had lived for nearly a thousand years. What story hadn't she heard?

"Mom! What's wrong?" She walked up to Isadora and gently nudged her.

"Lina? You've arrived." Isadora regained consciousness, then stood up, magic flowing through her hands, and changed into a gorgeous and formal elven outfit.

"Have lunch with Li Ming for me at noon. I have something to do, so I'll be going now."

After saying that, she leaped over the garden wall, and a pair of beautiful energy butterfly wings sprouted from her body as she flew away into the distance.

"Honestly, didn't we agree to have lunch together today?" Lina stomped her feet angrily in the garden.

Seeing that Lina's eyes were red, Li Ming stepped forward to comfort her, "Lina, Aunt Isadora must have something to do."

But his words only made things worse; Lina's eyes welled up with tears. "It's always like this, always like this! Everything else is more important than me!!!"

As she was talking, she ran to the side, squatted down, and started crying.

Li Ming stood there helplessly, and could only ask the housekeeper for some tissues to hand out.

After a while, Lina finally calmed down.

She wiped her face dry, looking embarrassed, and glared at Li Ming, saying, "Don't tell anyone about what happened today!"

"Absolutely not, I promise!"

"If word gets out, I'll never be able to eat three dishes in my entire life."

Li Ming made a solemn vow.

Lina chuckled. "What kind of lame vow is that?"

"Hehe, think about it, one of my life's dreams is to eat all the delicious food in the world. How miserable would it be if I couldn't even eat three dishes?"

"Haha, that's true!"

"Miss, Mr. Li, lunch is ready. Would you like to eat now?" Qingtan, seeing Lina's improved mood and relieved, quickly stepped forward to ask.

"Sir, if you want three dishes, let's go!"

The two did not eat at the restaurant. According to Lina, the restaurant was too big, the tables were too big, and the people eating there seemed very cold to each other, which she did not like.

So the two of them placed the food on the desk in the study.

The lunch prepared by Qingtan was very lavish. Although it consisted mostly of fruits and vegetables, all of them were ones that Li Ming had never seen before.

"Eat up, Mr. Three Dishes. These dishes are all tributes from the Elf Forest. You can't get them anywhere else."

"Wow, I'm so lucky! I'm going to have a feast today."

Li Ming took a few bites and was immediately won over by the taste of the dishes. The elves did not cook these fruits and vegetables in excessive ways.

However, their quality is so good, and their natural flavor is absolutely superb, being fresh, fragrant, and deliciously sweet and sour.

The key is that these fruits and vegetables contain a huge amount of energy; one bite and the system notification will appear.

......

This is a natural fruit of experience! Eat it! We must eat it all! I won't go home until I've finished everything here today.

Li Ming was busy eating like crazy, and to avoid looking too hungry, he took a moment to ask while chewing quickly, "By the way, Lina, what have you been up to lately? I've looked for you a few times, but you're never home."

"I've been quite busy lately." Lina put down the fruit she was holding, elegantly wiped her mouth, and said, "What did you want to see me about? Is there something you need?"

"It's nothing, it's been resolved. I was looking for a secret realm to practice in, so I ended up working as a secret realm practice bodyguard at Qingqing Elementary School for a day."

"Is it fun?"

"It's not fun, it's not fun at all, it's exhausting. These elf kids are quite old, but they're just as mischievous as human kids, and they're very difficult to manage."

"Hahaha~ I knew it would be like this." Lina laughed so hard her eyes curved into crescents. She had attended kindergarten at the Royal Court for a year when she was little, and she still remembered it vividly.

Thinking that she was already a third-tier gold mage while her kindergarten classmates were still in elementary school, she couldn't help but laugh.

After she finally stopped laughing, Li Ming asked her what she had been doing lately.

"Speaking of which, this is related to you. Remember those guys you caught who tried to steal your Moon Spring Crystal Goblin?"

"I remember, those goblins were pretty funny."

"Those goblins belong to a cult. They stole your Moon Crystal to set up some kind of ritual. I've been busy investigating this matter lately."

"Aren't you a human? How come you have a job here?"

"Sigh~ There's nothing I can do. My mom is an elf princess, so I can't even take a vacation."

Li Ming wasn't sure if Lina was referring to Versailles or complaining about her heavy workload, so he could only give a perfunctory "hmm."

"By the way, do you know the names of those big goblins you captured?"

Call him "Boss!"

"Haha, because he's called 'Boss,' those goblins really do treat him like their boss."

Hearing this, Li Ming stopped picking at the fruit in surprise. "Are those goblins mentally challenged? What if one of them named himself 'Dad'? Would they really treat him like their father?"

"Haha, you know what, it's actually quite possible. Why don't we find an opportunity to give it a try?"
