Quit the team, then picked up a beautiful girl with problems

But in hindsight, this may not have been the case. The two Meimeis had already proven that a world-threatening crisis would soon arrive, and the Six Dragons would eventually be unable to stay out of it.

Perhaps this is why Aqua accepted to rely on Leon's power to promote the rebirth of Leviathan.

"Now we're in trouble!"

Aqua jumped twice and said something to Leviathan. She should have been speaking dragon language. Just as Leon was about to wear the Dragon Language Ring, she had already finished speaking.

Leviathan just closed its eyes and wrapped itself around Leon, its tail even going around and wrapping halfway around his neck.

How to put it, he used to know some friends who raised snakes. If they raised them well, their pet snakes would feel soft and smooth to the touch. He was also invited to experience it, and now he feels very similar to that feeling.

Of course, the fact that his hair was wet was a bonus.

"Look, Leviathan doesn't take me seriously at all!"

The pink-haired girl pulled her hair in anger. It was the first time that Leon saw the incarnation of the god so mad.

"Damn it, damn it! Do you know? It's still connected to me. That means one-third of my power has been taken away. It means a part of me has truly become your pet!"

Aqua stamped her feet.

When she said that, Li Ang didn't think about it. Perhaps apart from this god, everyone else was more concerned about the dragon just now, and hadn't thought about the significance of the newly born sea snake.

"One third?" Meimei was puzzled.

The white-haired girl reminded Leon.

Earlier, when Shui Lingwu Dragon said that he and Leviathan were one with many sides, he did not mention that there was a third side. What was that?

Aqua obviously heard what Meimei said. She must have spoken out of turn in a hurry, but she didn't respond and tried to get away with it.

Not wanting to provoke her any further, Li Ang stopped talking.

Andasu said, "It was originally reborn through the power of its master, so it's only natural that it became a magical pet. That part wasn't there to begin with; it's just the strength of a rabbit."

"Shut up! You stinky dog who stole Benlong's toy!" Aqua was about to get angry again.

"It can't be considered a magical pet," Leon said immediately. He raised his hand and touched the Leviathan above his head. Somehow, he could communicate with it. He just felt that it could understand what everyone was saying, and the term "magic pet" made it unhappy.

"I am a dragon summoner, and I rely on special powers to revive it. This is actually a special contractual state, so it is also our partner."

"Okay, little dragon buddy, thank you for your guidance." Alulu smiled at Leviathan.

Zoe had never cared; having come into contact with so many star spirits, she'd long since grown accustomed to non-human companions. Meluna, on the other hand, didn't express her opinion. Meimei hesitated to speak, but overall, she wasn't opposed.

Everyone was satisfied except Aqua.

Li Ang brought up the topic that everyone was concerned about: "What happened to that dragon just now?"

Aqua didn't respond, so he looked at the two Meimei again: "Do you know anything about it?"

313. The Old Image of Gold

"I've never killed one of those. I guess he was hiding in the magical dimension at the time." Meluna said bluntly.

After looking at her black-haired "self" for a few times, Meimei shook her head and said, "I haven't encountered it before, but that kind of power always feels familiar."

"That creature looks a lot like the dragon we encountered when we were chopping down trees," Zoe said.

She recognized that Fafnir, a dragon whose body looked a bit like a white grub, belonged to the category of worm dragons. Li Qunang still remembered that when dealing with the Baomu Poison Dragon, Zoe was overwhelmed by the last venom. She said that next time she encountered such an enemy, she would put up a wind shield to defend against the venom in advance, and she did so this time.

"That guy is a worm dragon. Logically, it should be the offspring of Nidhogg," Leon said.

"That's right, that stench can be smelled from a long distance away." The Water Dragon said with disgust.

Meimei said that the holy city of her world was destroyed by two legendary dragons.

Based on the description of their appearance, Aqua said they were Freya and Nidhogg, so she realized it at this moment.

"I see. No wonder I felt a familiar chill. This kind of dragon is truly disgusting."

Meimei frowned and asked: "Will it come back? Or will its kind come back?"

"No, only a little power will be leaked at the moment of birth. From now on, Leviathan can control the release and retraction of power by itself." Aqua stared at the beautiful sea dragon on Leon's head, feeling uneasy.

"I never expected it," Dorothy said with a smile, "our first monster companion isn't a slimy Salamander or a terrifying White Flower Spider Wasp, but a little dragon as bright and transparent as a gem."

Leviathan raised his head and spat out a ball of water at the half-elf. She subconsciously retreated to avoid it, but the water turned into colorful bubbles in mid-air, exploding around the young lady and presenting a dreamy light effect.

"Wow!"

Canary let out a crisp laugh. She realized that the little dragon was trying to be nice to her, and she liked it even more.

Leon could sense that Leviathan was being kind to Dorothy. He wondered where this affection came from. Could it be the mermaid vestments she wore? Had such creatures ever truly existed in Newbiss?

Seeing that the Water Dragon Incarnation was so angry that his fists were clenched, Leon pulled Dorothy to stop her from teasing the little dragon.

He then asked Aqua, "Can you tell us what you know about the dragon just now?"

"no!"

"I promise to restore Leviathan's power to its full strength."

"So what? Putting aside whether you can do it or not, it's also lacking something else, such as..."

Aqua opened her mouth but didn't continue. It was Meluna who stepped forward and said, "You agreed to let Leon revive the sea dragon."

The female swordsman's arm had just invoked the power of the Six Dragons' Mark from another world while being spiritually activated, and her sleeves were shattered by magic power, leaving the mark clearly visible to everyone.

When she used the sword that summoned the power of six dragons and her own laws, Aqua showed signs of abnormality. At this moment, Leon even sensed a hint of... fear?

It is not easy to make an incarnation of a god feel this way. Although Leon believes that the Water Dragon itself will not be afraid of the current Meluna, she has never explained how this mark came about, and Leon doesn't quite believe that she killed all six dragons.

"If the Lord God has any instructions, please tell us clearly so that we can carry them out." Alulu joined in.

"That's right, it's very mysterious." Dorothy and Zoe nodded in unison.

"Okay, I get it, Leon. All your spouses are just as bad as you are."

How am I bad?

Li Ang felt a little innocent, but he did not directly refute the god.

Aqua sighed, remained silent for a moment, and then said seriously, "Ocean. I had hoped to restore the ocean in Newbis."

The girls originally had no concept of the "ocean", but after Leon made the mermaid robe, they had some understanding of it.

"How to recover? Without the earth, how can the ocean be supported?" Leon asked.

"As long as the water carries the concept of the ocean, the corresponding laws will also return."

Aqua withdrew her gaze from Leviathan and pointed her finger at Leon. "Take good care of your responsibility to restore Leviathan's power."

Her expression was complicated. "I had expected you to receive Leviathan's favor as a Dragon Summoner. Well, now that things have come to this, that stinky dog wasn't entirely wrong. It was a power that couldn't return in the first place."

"I'll make sure of that."

"Okay, this way, even if you can't summon the Star Soul Bahamut, you will still be qualified to enter the Six Dragon Realm."

This was a pleasant surprise, and Li Ang raised his eyebrows.

"But before you come, you must remove the demonic curse. If that kind of power enters our sanctuary, there may be unforeseen consequences."

"Ok."

Aqua's dissatisfaction with Leviathan came to a close, and she drank the wine that Leon had brought to apologize to the embarrassed clerk, and her emotions gradually calmed down.

"You don't have to worry about any more dragon attacks in the short term. This is why I didn't take action just now. As long as they don't know the information about the Dragon Ancestor or the Six Dragons, it won't be easy for them to attack.

"The brief leakage of Leviathan's aura upon its rebirth is very similar to the weakening of dragonborns close to Fafnir's level. This presents a great opportunity for them to devour their own kind and increase the purity of their dragon factor.

"However, even though most evil dragons crave the essence of other dragons, only the descendants of Nidhogg can't contain their greed and come directly. Not many dragons are willing to take the initiative to appear in the world, not to mention the black worm's greedy nature, which prevents it from sharing its power with its descendants. Fafnir is a complete exception."

The Water Dragon's reply put Leon and his group at ease. Even if they had the strength to resist now, as time went by and the members grew up, they would worry less and less about these things, but they couldn't bear such a visit at any time.

Although Fafnir's remains did provide some material, it would be better to have fewer things that disrupted the plan.

"How is Fafnir an exception?"

"That is……"

Aqua was about to explain when Leon stood up and interrupted her.

With the perception of magic synchronization, Farina came nearby.

Li Ang went out and brought the dragon witch, who was anxiously looking for everyone, into the room. Seeing that no one was hurt, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"What happened? I sense the magical vibrations of a powerful dragonborn appearing."

As the Fire Dragon's Agent and Dragon Summoner, she could clearly sense what was happening on the ground of the Rudder City, so she hurried over.

After explaining what happened to her, Farina stared at Meluna for a long moment and sighed, "I didn't expect that. I thought you guys would fight longer. After all, it's Fafnir."

"We were just talking about this," Leon said.

Speaking of which, the first time I heard this name was when Farina was talking about the mystery of the dragon.

"Then let this busty agent speak first." Aqua was happy to be free, so she grabbed the bottle of wine and jumped onto the chair, put her feet on the tea table, and poured the wine straight into her mouth.

"I remember you said at that time that Fafnir was transformed from the dwarf king?"

Leon searched his memory of that time, slightly puzzled: "Can a dwarf turn into a worm dragon?"

Although the dwarves of Newbiss had long been extinct in ancient times, and their information was lost to the extent that if Farina hadn't mentioned it, Leon wouldn't have been sure they ever existed. No existing civilization or organization claimed to have any relics of the dwarves.

Leon only thought that some people were similar in height and appearance, so he would occasionally think of this fantasy race. He had no idea what they were like, but the dwarves in his impression did not seem to have dragon blood.

"What I know isn't comprehensive, but it's much clearer than what I told everyone back then. Back then, I just shared one perspective from the outside world to make it easier for everyone to understand."

Farina talked about what she knew about Fafnir's past.

Dwarves are a race with a deep connection to the earth. They are good at controlling the earth element and they also like to mine minerals, gems and forge, so they have the habit of accumulating precious metals and gems.

The extremely precious orichalcum can be piled up into mountains in the dwarf warehouses, and their favorite and most precious magical metal of Newbis, "Crimson Gold", also decorates their capital everywhere, making it have the nickname "Golden Kingdom" in the records of any civilization.

The dwarves dug the earth and finally found the real treasure, but they were unable to dig it out with their abilities at the time, so they began to try various methods.

However, the secret treasure of the earth was difficult to obtain. They tried various methods but failed. Finally, a counselor advised the Dwarf King. He brought a summoning method, and the object of the summoning was the worm dragonborn who was said to be able to corrode all hard substances.

The Dwarf King called out, and it was Fafnir who responded.

"...I only skimmed through a portion of it while browsing other ancient documents in the Genesis Library. Although I was curious, my time was limited and I needed to find more information. That's all I've read.

"All I know is that in the end, Fafnir and the King seemed to be inseparable."

Although Farina gave a beginning, she didn't explain the details at all.

Aqua sat up and said, "It's really useless. Let me do the rest."

"Master Shuilong, please come in."

The pink-haired girl took a sip from the bottle, her cheeks slightly tipsy, and said, "Before the destruction of the dragon-worshiping civilization, mortals had a close connection with the dragon clan, and summoning dragons was a common occurrence. Perhaps many ancient families now also have such secret methods."

Somehow, when mentioning the ancient family and the secret method of summoning dragons, Leon first thought of Alafia's face, and then thought of her childhood sweetheart, the mysterious Faronio, and the little green dragon beside her.

"As for Fafnir, I've already said that Nidhogg's greedy nature prevents it from creating direct descendants like other dragon ancestors. A powerful worm dragon must constantly plunder magic and spirits until it reaches the legendary realm before Nidhogg will even look at it.

"That's right. When the dragon-worshipping civilization was still rampant, the powerful worm dragons' favorite thing to do was to wreak havoc on mortal cities and countries, harvesting the souls and magic of countless lives.

"Fafnir is the best among them. The other powerful worm dragons may have destroyed nations, but this one, it wiped out not only civilizations, but an entire race."

The Star Flower Girls, who had not seen many big scenes, looked at each other in surprise. Although they knew that Newbis had countless destroyed ancient civilizations, they were still surprised to see the destruction of a civilization or even a race in front of them.

"Were the dwarves the ones who were killed?" Zoe leaned on her knees and listened attentively.

"That's right. Even the six dragons had heard of Fafnir's unique skill, so Thanatos recorded it. It's the ability to merge with the opponent's soul. If successful, they will become indistinguishable. That evil dragon has no mental purists; it will take everything from the recipient and make it a part of itself."

"I don't know if Fafnir was attracted by the power of the dwarves or the secret treasure of the earth, but in any case, it possessed the soul of the dwarf king, leading to the destruction of the entire Golden Kingdom."

"The entire country, the entire race, how did it do it?" Alulu asked seriously.

"No one knows the specific details, but in short, its intelligence and strength have grown rapidly due to this. Even among the legendary dragons below my level, Fafnir is considered the most dangerous. That's why I didn't want to reveal my identity just now. Repelling it before it can figure out the situation is the best solution."

"As for that unique skill, your captain has just experienced it."

The girls all saw Fafnir's final counterattack and knew it must be powerful, but they didn't know it would be so scary.

The Kingdom of Gold sounds just like the fantasy land described in fairy tales. This country that once existed in Newbiss is now just an untouchable illusion, all thanks to the poisonous dragon.

Zoe immediately hugged Leon tightly, and the other three also surrounded him and looked at him carefully, as if they were afraid that there were still some remnants of Fafnir's power in him.

Leon frowned. What Aqua was talking about was the special attack written on the panel: [Soul Steal].

Even though he had been shocked by the ancient methods of the demons and the gods, this was the first time he knew of abilities at this level.

If Leviathan had not driven him away from the Dragon Ancestor level, it would be hard to say how long he could have held out against Fafnir. This move was vicious and cruel enough to be extremely powerful against certain enemies under certain circumstances.

For example, it couldn't prove that it could withstand Meluna's sword, but it was certain that Meluna couldn't launch a spiritual attack.
