A Dragon against the Whole World
Chapter 380 - 313: Powerform Human State_2
Even among the Ancient Five-Colored Dragons, she is absolutely a terrifying presence, ranking at the top, so much so that many ordinary White Dragons take pride in her, regarding her as the symbol and pride of the White Dragon clan’s rise.
"A White Dragon remembered like this in the Dragon’s Legacy... is definitely not simple."
Galos silently recited in his heart, swiftly searching the legacy for records of this Ten Thousand Laws White Dragon.
In short, this is a dragon who has reached the pinnacle in the path of magic, yet because of this suffers from severe obsessive mental illness [Magic-obsessed Dragon].
It is said that every piece of scale armor on her entire body is inscribed with mysterious and dangerous magic runes.
To go further on the path of magic, she would stop at nothing, doing anything shocking.
However.
She is fundamentally different from those equally crazy, yet often dying abnormally Magic-obsessed Dragons.
The other Magic-obsessed Dragons often lose their reason due to extreme greed for magic knowledge, engaging in foolish acts like moths to a flame.
For example.
For a torn notebook recording ancient forbidden curses, they would dare to recklessly break into the heavily guarded Legendary Mage Tower, only to end up with no remains.
But the Ten Thousand Laws White Dragon Heatherfield is entirely different.
She extremely understands how to utilize her own advantages and possesses the patience of a top hunter, even though as a White Dragon, she is as strategic as a Green Dragon, like a spider lurking in the shadows, patiently weaving webs for decades, even centuries, for a single target.
She has a very famous feat that is circulated among the Dragon Race.
To seize the unfathomable knowledge treasury and coveted magic inheritance of a Legendary Mage.
She used Transformation Magic, transforming into the human form of a beautiful, wise person full of desire for magic knowledge, while not hiding her racial identity, after careful planning, ultimately walking into the isolated life of that mage as a wife.
She was like the most loyal companion, staying beside the Legendary Mage.
Not for a short few years, but a long, enough to let small dynasties rotate for an entire three hundred years!
She utilized the longevity advantage of long-lived species, turning the long years into silent erosion.
She carefully maintained her disguise, playing the role of gentle and attentive, providing timely care and insight during the mage’s research.
She patiently waited, waited for the human mage to exhaust his mortal life candle in the regret of exploring the ultimate secrets of magic, finally aging and passing away.
Ultimately, she naturally inherited everything from him.
His lifelong research manuscripts, his vast library of magic collectives, his immensely powerful magic items collection, and a Legendary Mage Tower that gathered a mage’s lifetime effort.
It was this tower, and the terrifying knowledge contained within, that became the real cornerstone of Ten Thousand Laws White Dragon Heatherfield’s rise.
To reach the summit of the magic path, she would stop at nothing, abandoning all moral shackles and secular restraints, she was inherently cunning, skilled at weaving lies and illusions, yet lacked top-level hunter patience.
With these traits, Heatherfield grew from an unremarkable ordinary White Dragon, step by step, to what is now Winter’s End.
"But why would such a strategic dragon attack the Metal Dragon Domain?"
"Could it be that Heaven-Covering Wings holds the magical knowledge she covets?"
This seems to be the most reasonable explanation.
But what is the truth? Galos can only remain uncertain about this.
With Iron Dragon Solrog’s continued narration, the major events happening on Bernardo Planet over the past decades gradually painted a vast and turbulent yet undercurrent-filled picture in Galos’s mind.
Above, the Elf Empire explores the stars, contacting alien civilizations; in the middle, the Beastman Empire sounds the war call, intending to conquer the continent; below, the Human Empire crazily develops planes, attempting to leverage the Power of the Abyss.
Each has their own ideas, each has their own skills.....A subtle sense of unease begins to grow and spread in Galos’s heart.
"These three paths, whichever one encounters a serious error during exploration, could evolve into a disaster with widespread impact."
"Especially Holden Empire’s Abyss development plan."
"Once out of control, the entire Atlantia Continent might be in grave peril."
Dragon’s Legacy clearly records.
In other distant Material Realms, due to some Demon Lord’s evil schemes or some force’s foolish acts, the entire Material Realm being dragged into the Abyss and completely devoured....such things are not without precedent.
As for examples of entire continents being swallowed by the Abyss, they are even more frequent.
Unfortunately.
Even perceiving this potential great crisis, Galos knows that he is powerless against it at present, as heaven falls, the taller ones hold it up, too important matters are not his concern.
"Now, considering these far-reaching threats is meaningless."
"For me, the most important thing at present is to become stronger, to grow rapidly."
"As long as I possess strong enough power, no matter what earth-shattering changes occur in the future, I can remain unmoved and safely pass through."
"If weak, even hiding at the world’s end wouldn’t escape the fate of destruction."
Galos quickly retracted his thoughts, his gaze returning to calm and firm.
Among the many major events, the actions of those empires are too distant from the current Molten Iron Tribe.
Upon close analysis, what is most practically meaningful for him and the tribe is the Federation’s full-scale civil war and the mutual demise of the two Legendary Kings of the Eternal Frost Tundra, both events providing rare opportunities for the next step of the Molten Iron Tribe’s development.
