"Communicating with wild dragons? You think I've lived too long..." Roland was stunned. Didn't Kaslo have any idea of the wild dragon's temper? To most dragons, humans were ants. Only those with level six professions and dragon knights could earn the respect of these proud dragons.
"Of course! How can you contract a dragon rider without communicating with wild dragons? You don't think those dragons will be as obedient as domesticated Shire horses and let you contract, right?" Kaslo was very upset.
Indeed, except for the Lagran Empire which maintained its own dragon herd at its peak, all dragon knights made contracts with dragons by chance.
"Headache..." Roland's head suddenly became as big as a bucket. Communicating with the wild dragon to sign the dragon rider contract was as difficult as risking his life. The bad-tempered dragons could tear Roland's poor little body into pieces at any time.
"There's no other way. You can only contract a flying dragon and let it evolve into a giant dragon. But forgive me for being frank, the bloodline of ordinary flying dragons is very mixed. Although they are also members of the true dragon species, that is only the lowest level. Even the strongest four-legged flying dragon king among the flying dragons will be inferior to the original dragons in strength after advancing to a giant dragon!" Cardo successfully evolved into a giant dragon through the essence of the wind dragon. Caslo knew this very well. Although Cardo was invincible on the battlefield, he would be at a disadvantage if he fought with a real dragon such as the star dragon Skye or a young Smurf. After all, the purity of his bloodline is difficult to reach the purity of a real dragon.
Why are dragons so powerful? Because everything they have is inherited through their bloodline, and dragons with the purest bloodlines undoubtedly possess the strongest combat power.
"Well, forget it..." Roland originally had the idea of raising a four-legged flying dragon into a giant dragon, but after hearing what Caslo said, he decisively gave up.
"So you can only try to contract a dragon through communication! I'll escort you when the time comes!" Kaslo said solemnly. It was a tradition of the Dragon Knight Contract that the Dragon Knight stood guard while the prospective Dragon Knight and the dragon negotiated the contract. This could prevent numerous tragedies, of course, most of which involved humans...
"Thank you so much... The key is that there are no dragons now! We haven't heard any news about dragons along the way. Oh! There is a fake dragon - Smaug!" Roland took out a knife helplessly and started trimming his nails.
"Maybe... I can ask the system to get a dragon? After all, the Smurfs were given by the system!" Roland thought to himself. Although the smurf dragons were too big to be ridden, they were only slightly larger than war horses when they grew up. People sitting on the dragon saddle might be blown off by the wind.
"No matter what, as the King of Raglang and the future Emperor of Raglang, you need to know dragon language. Even if you cannot become a dragon knight, dragon language is the symbol of the royal family! Every orthodox Raglang royal family must be proficient in dragon language! This is our heritage! Because we used to be a kingdom of dragons! And now! The power of dragons is inherited by me! I hope that in the future we can still regard ourselves as a kingdom of dragons!" Kaslo said respectfully and humbly.
"You're right! Then... let's get started!" Roland sighed and spread out the Dragon's Language, revealing the "ghostly talisman" that broke his heart.
…
"Where has your Highness gone?" As night fell, Nyx, who had been out for a picnic, was waiting anxiously in the tent for her lover to come home. However, she was obviously getting a little anxious, so she called the maids to ask.
"Your Highness, the King has been out for a long time today and hasn't come back yet." The two maids were also confused. After all, they were only responsible for Roland's daily life, such as food and clothing. They didn't care where their king had gone.
"Huh~" Nyx curled up on the bed dissatisfied, feeling aggrieved. Since they had been together for so long, Roland had never been away so late. Even if there was something urgent, he would have asked the waiters to bring a message back to Nyx.
"Could he have been attracted by a pretty girl and stayed at someone else's house?" Nyx was suddenly shocked by this horrific "truth." Even though the nobles of Middle-earth hadn't fallen to the level of blood-sucking leeches, many still had chaotic private lives. The idea of exercising the right of first night wasn't entirely unfounded. Although Nyx believed in Roland's love for her, she didn't believe he could remain devoted to her.
"..." As Nyx thought about it, her beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and crystal tears began to swirl around her eye sockets.
…
"How is it, Your Highness? Have you learned these few sentences? These are just the most basic dragon language for communication. After learning these, at least... you can say hello to wild dragons." Caslo said to Roland after thinking about his words.
"Thank you for your comfort, Your Excellency the Great Dragon Rider!" Roland rolled his eyes unhappily.
"Oh! Dragon God! It's already so dark! It's over!" Roland accidentally glanced out the window and found that the sky was as dark as ink. As for why Roland in the house did not feel the change in light, it was entirely because Kaslo's house was equipped with a magic crystal lamp made by Yun Feng. That thing can make the house as bright as day, so Roland did not notice the passage of time at all.
…
"Where have you been?" As expected, as soon as Roland entered the inner room of the tent, he saw Nyx with red eyes staring at him with a crying voice.
"I... I went to Kaslo's place." Roland rubbed the cover of Dragon's Whisper with his hands a little uncomfortably.
"Haha! Are you going to have fun at some lover's house? All men are pigs! What's in your hand? A token of love? It's quite stylish!" Nix sneered coldly.
"Damn it...it was a misunderstanding..." Roland's face suddenly turned bitter.
"You shouldn't listen to my excuses... No! Explain! I really went to Kaslo's house! Yun Feng gave me the Dragon Language inherited from the royal family! I went to Kaslo to learn the Dragon Language! After all, I also want to be a dragon knight!" Roland hurriedly explained.
"Really?" Nyx believed it a little bit after seeing Roland's expression. She took the Dragon's Language and flipped through it for a few times before nodding thoughtfully.
"How's your studies going?" Nyx questioned Roland like a wife checking up on him.
"It's okay, but those weird drawings are really hard to read..." Roland shrugged helplessly.
"Are you really going to learn dragon language? Are you not going to cheat?" Nix asked again.
"I swear to the Dragon God, absolutely not! Who in the city of Rapids can be as beautiful, generous, charming, lovely, kind and gentle as our Nix?" Roland was trying his best at this moment. Having been single for 16 years, he had used all the words of praise he could think of.
"Hmm! There's no scent of a strange woman..." Nyx leaned over gently, sniffed Roland, and nodded in affirmation.
"You've passed! Go to sleep! I was so worried about you not coming back so late!" Nix complained to Roland while curling up in the soft bed like a big cat.
