Chapter 65 Awakening (VI)In the near future, those adventurers who thought they had escaped would spread the reputation of the red dragon to all parts of the North, build momentum for the next action of the Burning Embers Nest, attract the attention of all races in Anzeta, and also trigger widespread discussion in human cities such as Northwind Fort. And the bard would write popular poems boasting about the power of the red dragon under the instruction of Cassius day and night, and sing them throughout the north. ——Anyway, this is the request made by the bard himself, so Cassius should satisfy him. Cassius was not afraid of others coming to him. Now he had great confidence in his own strength. At least in this barren Anzeta wilderness in the north, he could act almost unscrupulously. In this group of twenty people, half of the senior professionals became Cassius's experience packages. Cassius lay lazily in the cave, playing with the many magical equipment taken from Bennett with great interest. The [Dimensional Gate Necklace] was only a tiny ring in the huge claws of the red dragon, barely fitting on its thick knuckles. The [Shield Cloak] was like a handkerchief, and the hollow [Wooden Staff] was like a toothpick. And in the box nearby, there are hundreds of pieces of equipment shining with magical light. Among them were swords, shields, staffs, amulets, and all kinds of other items, many of which were stained with blood. However, in Cassius's opinion, there were no particularly precious equipments here. Most of them were the lifeblood of ordinary adventurers, and were rated at most as "rare" in the panel.
For example, the [Whispering Greatsword] can be considered a god-like item in the early stage if it is in the hands of a player, but it is just a useless item in front of the Red Dragon. These were all the benefits that Trump had earned from adventurers over the years. Except for a few magical instruments he used for his own research, the rest were sent to Cassius. This clever ogre even deliberately sent people to spread the story of the "Treasure of the Burning Embers" and drew several wrong maps and put them in the caravan, just to lure adventurers to die. No wonder he was able to build a wizard tower. "Tsk tsk, greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant." Cassius put down the equipment in his claws and stared at his panel. [You kill [Human Archer] and get 1100xp] [You kill the [Church Paladin] and gain 2900xp] [You kill [Shadow Guild Thief] and get 2900 XP] [You kill the [Hemolysis Warrior] to get 3900 XP] [Your career level is increased to level 7] [Choose to upgrade the level of [True Dragon Warlock]] Cassius held his breath and stared at the panel. Unlike the free choice of ordinary warlock profession, the dragon spells obtained by the true dragon warlock are randomly obtained from his own bloodline, and a large part of luck is involved. And Cassius thought that from his previous life to the present, he had never been the so-called European Emperor. [You trace your bloodline, seek the secrets from the ancient dragons, and gain additional dragon spells [Fear and Tremor]] "A zero-ring trick that makes your enemies tremble with fear and it is even harder for them to be immune to the dragon's might." Cassius couldn't help but sigh. Although it was better than nothing, at least it was a useful spell. Fortunately, due to the advantages of his professional characteristics, he can also choose a 4th-level spell from his warlock spell list. [You gain the 4th level spell [Transfiguration]] There is no need to say much about this famous spell. It can transform any visible creature into a new form, but this form cannot be beyond one's control or exceed one's own strength. Cassius felt the conjuration spell in his mind and cast it. His current spellcasting ability has been able to reach the fifth level of the magic network, and he can quickly master the fourth-ring spells. "Transfiguration." The magic web was gently moved by his words, curled by his will, and tiny magical lights flickered on his body. His huge and ferocious body shrank rapidly and finally turned into an ordinary human form. However, transfiguration will automatically change according to the caster's situation, and as a teenage dragon, Cassius naturally became - a half-grown child. Cassius looked at his new form with a gloomy expression. The human in the mirror was about twelve or thirteen years old, with delicate features, golden pupils, flaming red hair, and exceptionally sharp fangs. He looked like a troublesome kid.
But his eyes are arrogant, giving people an inexplicable sense of oppression. "If I really go out like this, I will lose face." "You must not let the players see this form, otherwise they will become frequent visitors to some strange websites." Cassius made up his mind and decided not to let the players see this form. He re-activated the spell and gradually adjusted his appearance. The tiny magical aura flickered on his body, and each flicker caused his body to change, either changing color, lengthening his body, or changing his facial features. It could be called the Korean plastic surgery in his previous life. Finally, a handsome young man with black hair, golden eyes and a calm temperament appeared in the mirror. He looked to be in his twenties, wearing a gorgeous dark red dress with gold trim, his high nose bridge and golden eyes seemed to reveal his aristocratic status. Although he looked a bit arrogant, he exuded an aura of elegance and composure that was hard to resist. "This is so true." Cassius nodded in satisfaction. He stared at his panel. 【Warlock Cassius (Human Form)】 Challenge Rating: 8 (3900 XP) "In this form, his physical strength and spellcasting abilities are limited, and he is almost equivalent to a high-level human warlock." Cassius in human form frowned and lifted the spell. Suddenly, his body swelled rapidly, and the huge red dragon appeared in the cave again. "It's still more comfortable to be in my original form. The feeling of having my power restrained is too uncomfortable." Cassius let out a breath of hot air with pleasure. He stared at the panel in front of him. Compared to before he fell into sleep, it had changed drastically.
