Chapter 766: Chapter 0763: Dragon Fire Roasted Bird (Fourth Update, Alliance Hierarch Extra 6/56)
“Ach, have Yevich send over the detailed information on the new island, and increase the search efforts in the surrounding sea area to see if it’s part of an archipelago. After determining the location, we’ll head over tomorrow.” Liszt gave his instructions and then went with Ani to the Phoenix Perch Parasol Tree.
In the Flame Dragon Bird’s nest, three enormous eggs still lay quietly.
With the Eye of Magic, one could see the fiery red light within the eggs, outlining the curled-up shapes of the chicks, indicating that the eggs were close to hatching. When he stirred up his Dragon Dou Qi to transform it into flames and scorched the eggs, he could clearly feel the “cheers” of the tiny lives inside.
Ani danced excitedly nearby as well.
It was hard to explain why there was a symbiotic relationship between Ani and the Flame Dragon Birds, with the only connection being that both were Fire Attribute creatures.
...
“Flame Dragon Bird.” Ani murmured some still unfamiliar words, “Phoenix Perch Parasol, Fire Dragon Leo, Liszt, Acherloides, Pike, Ash, Jela… Haha, the eggs are about to hatch, Liszt, the little Flame Dragon Birds are going to come out.”
However, to Ani’s disappointment, just as the Flame Dragon Bird eggs were about to hatch, they suddenly stopped absorbing Fire Attribute Dou Qi, having reached their daily absorption limit.
“What a pity, we couldn’t hatch all three chicks in one go,” Liszt shook his head.
At that moment, an idea struck him, and he looked towards the direction of the volcano crater.
A flame shot up into the sky, instantly transforming into the figure of Leo, who then flew down the slope towards Liszt, issuing a majestic “Oh-ho!”
Despite the loud call, Liszt could tell it was filled with indignation: “What’s wrong, Leo?”

“Oh-ho!”
Leo informed him that the magma in the volcano crater had severely contracted, and very little Volcanic Super Magic had coalesced, meaning that its “dining hall” was about to close down.
“Take me to see.”
“Take me with you,” Ani waved from the side.
“Come here.” Liszt picked up Ani, hopped onto Leo’s Dragon Tooth Platform, and then flew towards the volcano crater. Ani stretched out little hands to constantly touch Leo’s scales, occasionally revealing a blissful expression on its cute face. If it weren’t for its endearing appearance, such behavior would be quite unseemly.
Circling over the volcano crater, they could already see the situation below clearly.
Originally divided in half, one side of the crater contained magma, the other a hot water lake. However, now, the steam from the hot water lake had significantly decreased, and the magma was almost invisible, with the outer layer of magma reduced to mere traces of red—cooling faster than Liszt had imagined.
“Indeed, the Dodo Island Volcano is about to enter a dormant period,” Liszt frowned, a wave of annoyance washing over him.
Without the volcanic magma to assist Leo in coalescing Super Magic, relying solely on Magic Potions for this purpose would not only slow down the growth but would also consume a massive amount of magical resources, delaying the development of his territory.
But he was not one to complain.
If the Dodo Island Volcano was cooling, then it was time to search for a new one: “Leo, there’s no need to be upset, I will send a message to the Sapphire Duke and have him help search for a new volcano crater within the Sapphire region for your cultivation,” Liszt reassured him. Renting a crater with magma should not be difficult; the challenge was finding such a crater.
Upon hearing this, Leo let out a reluctant “Oh-ho,” helplessly accepting the reality.
But its eyes swiftly turned as it quickly thought of something else, communicating with Liszt: “I want to eat the corpse of the Flame Dragon Bird, there’s one left uneaten, and there are six Phoenix Feathers, I want them all!”
“You can eat the corpse of the Flame Dragon Bird, but the Phoenix Feathers are off-limits,” Liszt declared unequivocally. Although the meat of the Flame Dragon Bird was highly nutritious, it was quite average in taste, which would be a bit of a waste for him to eat—his body was not as strong as a dragon’s and couldn’t fully digest it.
Giving it to Leo to eat would maximize the benefit. He wasn’t sure what the structure of a dragon’s stomach was like, but as long as food went in, it could be broken down and absorbed immediately.
Humans couldn’t achieve this with food, with very low utilization rates.
So the meat of the Flame Dragon Bird could be given to Leo—but not the Phoenix Feathers, which he intended to keep to study and possibly pass on as heirlooms.
After some bargaining, it was finally settled that Leo would eat meat but not feathers.
However, Liszt soon discovered the cunning nature inherent in Leo the Evil Dragon, as he flew towards the Phoenix Perch Parasol Tree, intending to devour those three bird eggs.
“Absolutely not!”
“Oh-ho!”
A man and a dragon stopped beside the great tree, staring covetously at the bird’s nest, locked in intense standoff. Ani, unaware of what was happening, was still blissfully stroking Leo’s scales, smiling foolishly—being able to touch his favorite Flame Dragon, life seemed almost unimaginable.
The clash of thoughts was as quick as lightning and fire; a mere second had passed in the outside world, but dozens of confrontations had already taken place within.
Liszt finally succeeded in suppressing Leo’s greed, convincing him to abandon the desire for the Flame Dragon Bird eggs: “Let’s go, back to taking the medicine!”
“Oh-ho!” Leo turned around.
But at that moment, he suddenly twisted his head and, taking advantage of Liszt’s momentary lapse, sprayed a Dragon Breath directly at the nest without warning. The scorching, boiling Dragon Breath instantly enveloped the nest, and the nest and tree branches, which could not catch fire, were charred on the surface by the Dragon Breath.
Crack, crack, crack.
The sound of the eggs cracking was exceptionally clear amid the spray of Dragon Breath.
“How dare you!”
Liszt was furious, his will instantly ascending, as he forcefully broke into Leo’s mind in a flash. Inside was still a volcano, and at the crater resided a Little Fire Dragon, whose eyes were filled with an evil aura.
Without any words.
Liszt transformed the smoke entwined around him into a five-meter-long Dragon Lance, and, merging with the lance, he pierced like a celestial being flying out of this world, right into the Little Fire Dragon’s head.
A single puncture!
The Little Fire Dragon had no power to struggle or fight back.
The volcano collapsed, the scene changed rapidly, and a new Fire Dragon was being nurtured.
Liszt also emerged from Leo’s mind. At that time, Leo’s faint “Oh-ho” sound expressed his grievance, without a hint of his previous aggression—the evil thoughts had just been vanquished by Liszt’s lance, giving rise to pure and fresh new thoughts.
Liszt, having successfully slain the evil thoughts of the Fire Dragon, felt no joy, for the Dragon Breath had already hard-boiled the three eggs until they cracked.
All was for naught!
But suddenly, Ani flew out, excitedly pointing at the nest that had been baked by the Dragon Breath and shouting, “Liszt, the Flame Dragon Bird eggs, they’re hatching!”
“Hmm?”
Liszt then paid attention to the nest again and was astonished to find that not only were the three eggs not hard-boiled, but they were also brimming with a strong vitality.
Within the sight of the Dragon Eye Trajectory, the chicks in the eggs were already struggling, attempting to break the shells.
Their movements became larger and stronger, and the already cracked shells couldn’t possibly prevent them from continuing to break out.
Seeing this, Liszt opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say, “Could it be that just now Leo wasn’t trying to kill the eggs, but was actually helping them hatch? No, no, no, that can’t be right, the Evil Dragon was only thinking of devouring the eggs, my act of slaying Leo’s evil thoughts was a righteous deed!”
