Song Jian opened the manor’s property interface and began setting up combat equipment. Arrow towers and catapults were all loaded with ammunition. At the same time, he woke up the Bloody Ghoul Poison Tree from its deep sleep;
“Master, I have a…” As soon as the Bloody Ghoul Poison Tree woke up, it called out to Song Jian;
“Hold on, we’ll discuss other matters later. Right now, I need you to do something. Later, you have to do this…” Song Jian interrupted what Alex was saying and directly gave his orders;
The Bloody Ghoul Poison Tree had grown into a level-ten elite BOSS. Its Vitality Points exceeded two thousand; all Song Jian needed was for it to hold off the black dragon hatchling. He didn’t want it to join the fight because there was a risk that it could accidentally kill the level-five black dragon hatchling; “Alright, do you understand what to do?” asked Song Jian;
“I understand, Master, but…” Alex seemed to be somewhat discontented and wanted to continue speaking;
“Good, as long it’s clear; we’ll talk about the rest later. You better not mess it up later!” After giving his approval, Song Jian headed towards the manor gate;
“Mas, Master… okay!” Alex sighed and the roots of the tree began to move slowly within the Spirit Field;
Song Jian walked up to the black dragon hatchling and took out a piece of roast meat;
The black dragon hatchling glanced at Song Jian and then at the roast meat, then with a contemptuous look in its eyes, it pounced on a mutant zombie and started tearing it apart. After a short while, it surprisingly killed the zombie effortlessly;
Seeing the black dragon hatchling with blood all over its mouth and an aura of violence all over its body, Song Jian frowned;
“Little Black, come here!” Song Jian called out in a low voice;
Roar-
The black dragon hatchling actually turned around and roared at Song Jian.
The vertical pupils of its eyes flashed a hint of blood-red color;
Song Jian knitted his eyebrows and his right hand slowly reached for the long sword by his waist;
The black dragon hatchling seemed to understand something; its violent aura disappeared in an instant, making pleasing noises and trying to jump onto Song Jian’s shoulder;
“Get lost, get away! You’re so heavy now, how can 1 bear it?” Song Jian playfully scolded it, using his right hand to push the black dragon hatchling away. He laughed heartily, walked towards the manor, and upon reaching the gate of the manor, he turned back and waved at the black dragon hatchling;
The black dragon hatchling stared at Song Jian’s figure, opened its big mouth, showed its full row of sharp teeth, and let out a silent roar. It extended its front claws, which were flashing with a metallic cold light;
By the time Song Jian turned his head to wave, the hatchling had once again assumed its adorable appearance, fluttering its wings and flying towards Song Jian;
Song Jian slowly walked into the manor. The black dragon hatchling flew into the manor behind him; the manor’s gate started to close slowly. The arrow towers located at the four corners of the wall were gradually rotated, targeting the dragon hatchling;
Underneath the ground, roots crawled like land dragons, rumbling slowly beneath the surface, following the movement of the black dragon hatchling. Even the fine dust on the ground began to vibrate slightly;
When the black dragon hatchling was about to follow Song Jian into the castle, it finally sensed a threat. It stopped, flashed a look of confusion in its eyes, and started to look around;
Whoosh-
A sharp swishing sound suddenly rang out, and a sharp arrow over a meter long pierced through the left wing of the Black Dragon whelp and into its abdomen, causing over sixty points of critical damage, displayed above the dragon’s head.
Whoooosh-
In an instant, arrows from two arrow towers showered over the young Black Dragon, which thrashed and roared in response, flapping its wings in an attempt to stand once more. However, the barrage left it looking like a porcupine, its body bristling with arrows.
Grr, grr, grr-
The young Black Dragon wailed at Song Jian, blood seeping from its wounds. Despite its pleas, Song Jian only returned a chilly stare. Eventually, seeming to understand something, the dragon opened its blood-flecked jaws, revealing sharp teeth, and roared at Song Jian before struggling towards him.
Whoosh-
A tree root from the ground suddenly erupted and jabbed into the Black Dragon whelp, piercing its other wing. The dragon whelp that had managed to rise half a meter off the ground fell back into the dust.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh-
Dozens of tree roots, snake-like, threw themselves at the dragon, turning it into something akin to a rice dumpling. Several small wooden thorns materialized on the tree roots, slowly digging into the spaces between the dragon whelp’s scales and began to drain its vitality.
What no one expected, however, was that the tree roots that absorbed the dragon’s blood began to heat up almost instantly. In no time, they had turned red-hot before bursting into flame.
As the roots wrapped around the young dragon turned to ash after sucking up the dragon’s blood, Song Jian frowned slightly, drew his long sword, and lunged at the dragon. His sword cleaved into its head, immediately resulting in over a hundred points of critical damage floating above the Dragon whelp’s head.
By this point, the young Black Dragon had already lost over four hundred vitality points. It was stuck with more than a dozen arrows, with Alex’s Poisonous Ghost Tree roots still incessantly shooting up from the ground, aiming for the young Black Dragon.
Song Jian flipped his wrist and with a swift flick of his right hand, the long sword peeled open the dragon whelp’s neck, spraying fresh blood. The dragon whelp let out a painful cry, a hint of blood appearing in its golden eyes. Opening its mouth wide at Song Jian, a ball of searing fire began to take shape inside its mouth.
Sploosh-
In less than a second, a stream of fire five to six meters long shot out from the dragon whelp’s mouth. The heat filled the small courtyard, scaring the NPC workers into running into the sub-castle under the scolding of their butler, George. They peered fearfully out of a narrow window.
Song Jian activated the innate skill of his long sword, enveloping his body in a milky-white glow. The intense fire licked at his protective field, causing several forty-point damages to pop up. Within seconds, the defensive capability of the shield had dropped to a third of its original state.
Steadfast against the fire, Song Jian wielded his long sword and lunged at the Black Dragon whelp. The arrow tower continued to attack, and Alex’s tree roots seemed endless. Even as some were destroyed, more would sprout and rush at the Black Dragon whelp.
The Black Dragon whelp felt like it had fallen into a swamp, surrounded by enemies on all sides, its vitality points rapidly declining until it fell below half.
Grrrr-
With an angry cry, the Black Dragon whelp took a hard turn towards the wall. Its ragged wings continued their frantic beating, gripping the cracks in the wall with its claws. Spewing Dragon Flame from its mouth, the dragon burned away the roots entangling it and managed to scramble onto the wall.
Song Jian looked up at the whelp on the wall, grinning faintly. He pulled out a scroll glowing with a silver light from his pack, and in a solemn voice, addressed the young Black Dragon, “If you sign this Pet Contract, you will be allowed to live. Otherwise, you face certain death.”
