Chapter 53: Strange Hybrid Dragon
In the swamp, the most common thing that can be seen now are water birds.
"Master, this is the patrol where the roar of the dragon was heard." A kobold warlock stood up. He was the captain of the patrol.
Li Ge nodded and "set up camp on the spot". As soon as the order was given, the soldiers left the arrangement.
Selina and Lucia were setting up the magic tent for Li Ge themselves. In order to respond in time, Li Ge also gave up the idea of entering the mage's mansion and allowed the two of them to set up the tent.
Krisina walked over proudly. She had the greatest contribution to today’s march. Continuously squeezing this green dragon may dampen the enthusiasm for work.
Li Ge thought for a while and realized that there was a lot of silver in the space. He took out a large silver ingot of about one hundred kilograms, which was almost worth one hundred standard gold coins.
"Krisina, this is a reward for you." Li Ge threw the silver ingot to the green dragon. When the human Alpha let the green dragon work, he paid a lot of price.
Although Li Ge treats Green Dragon as a slave, he doesn't give him any benefits at all. If he occasionally gives some benefits, Green Dragon won't take advantage of him.
Krisna happily took the silver ingot, found a big tree, and used natural magic to build a simple temporary nest.
After sitting down in the tent, Selena came in. "Master, I talked to the nearby tree spirits and found nothing strange." Selina is a master natural mage, proficient in natural magic and divine magic.
"This swamp is very big. I will personally check it out tomorrow. Selina, you and Lucia will take the soldiers and explore the surrounding area. I will leave Krisina here to protect you." Li Ge arranged the task for tomorrow. .
The curtains of the tent were drawn, and space magic was applied inside, which was more than enough for a large bed. Selina had already done this with Li Ge many times, and she was not shy about sleeping with Li Ge.
Early the next morning, Li Ge turned into the dragon's true form and flew over the swamp for reconnaissance. The kobolds could hear the roar of the dragon, which couldn't be far from here.
The power of the dimension covered the whole body, and the huge golden dragon's body became like a shadow, so as not to alarm the dragon. There are a lot of grasslands in the swamp, and even a lot of land, wild boars, and deer-like creatures.
If there were black dragons nearby, the water quality would have deteriorated long ago, making it no longer suitable for wild animals to survive. After scanning these lively places, there was nothing wrong.
At the end of the day, Li Ge checked nearly thirty square kilometers of land and found nothing.
Selina, Lucia and Krisna also found nothing, but the kobolds were loyal and would not lie.
In the next few days, Li Ge was very diligent and looked at almost the entire swamp. Finally, at the origin of the swamp, a river originating from the snowy mountains, I discovered something unusual.
In this remote place, there is actually a village of northern barbarians. The Northland Barbarians are a subspecies of humans. They are taller than ordinary humans and are almost the same size as orcs.
Most of the northern barbarians live in the Ice and Snow Kingdom, the northernmost tip of the continent. It is covered with ice and snow all year round, and even the orcs are unwilling to care about it.
The winter maiden Oluel is the main belief in the Ice and Snow Kingdom. Other human gods rarely pay attention to this sparsely populated kingdom.
It's just that this place is at least a few hundred kilometers away from the Ice and Snow Kingdom, and these northern barbarians have traveled far enough.
Li Ge is like this. If he goes directly, it may cause unnecessary sensation. But this was not a problem for the golden dragon. The golden dragon fell gently to the ground, activated the advanced transformation technique, and turned into a forest cat.
He called "meow" several times and ran towards the small village of the barbarians in the north. This kind of forest cat is very common in the forests of the Northland, and there is no need to worry about being discovered.
This village is not very big, with only a few dozen wooden houses, but it is quite neat. This is what Li Ge finds strange. Ordinary Northland barbarians would not do this.
After jumping onto a tall pine tree and finding a place to lie down, Li Ge transformed into a forest cat and began to monitor the village without moving.
There are only about two hundred northern barbarians in the village, and they make a living by gathering and hunting. Some land has also been opened up around it, and some unknown crops are grown.
The first two days were normal, until on the third day, the largest wooden house in the middle of the village opened, and a Northland wizard wearing a robe came out.
The wizard also looked like a tall northern barbarian. He looked to be in his thirties and had a beard. The other northern barbarians excitedly held a banquet for the wizard, which was actually just eating and drinking together.
Less than one-third of these northern barbarians were men, and the rest were women. Li Ge discovered that some children were actually dragonborn.
After eating and drinking, most of the people dispersed, leaving only eight young barbarian women, who happily surrounded the wizard and entered the big wooden house. Then, in Li Ge's head full of black lines, an indescribable sound continued all night.
Li Ge lay down on the tree depressedly and plugged his ears. Why was he so stupid to listen to this guy doing this?
After finally enduring it the next day, the Northland wizard finally went out. Li Ge cheered up and stared at this guy closely.
In the cheers of the barbarians, the wizard's body glowed with magical light, and a strong dragon appeared in the village. After a few dragon roars, the dragon took off into the air and flew towards the swamp.
Looking at the dragon's retreating back, Li Ge turned into a goshawk and continued to follow.
"Another hybrid dragon." Li Ge looked at the figure of the giant dragon in front of him. He somewhat understood why the giant dragon was hiding in this remote place.
Looking at this giant silver-white dragon, it is neither pure white like the white dragon, nor does the scales have a shiny metallic luster like the silver dragon. It is probably the fault of one of the silver dragons and the white dragon.
Among the dragons, there are also high and low. Some poorer male dragons cannot get the attention of female dragons of the same race, so they often target the numerous white dragons. After all, white dragons are considered real dragons. I don’t know if this giant dragon was born like this.
The giant dragon in its prime began to hunt in the swamp. It seemed that it was quite particular and did not allow the barbarians to offer food.
The dragon, which was full of food and drink, circled the swamp several times. After discovering Li Ge's soldiers, he quickly left.
Li Ge followed closely behind, and the hybrid dragon landed on a dry soil slope in the swamp, looking up at Li Ge.
Strangely, Li Ge actually saw a joking expression on this dragon's face. Well, I was inexperienced and was discovered by others.
Amidst the deep roar of the dragon, Li Ge returned to his dragon form and slowly landed in front of the dragon.
"I'm Li Ge. I'm sorry. I only conducted the investigation after hearing the reports from my family members and discovering the giant dragon." Li Ge's attitude was relatively correct.
"Haha, I still know the golden dragon's habits. You can call me Cohen." The dragon Cohen's attitude was friendly.
