Chapter 274: 225: Dragon Sister Evolves—Epic Boss Black Dragon King!_2
And his interest in checking out the military warehouse inventory was intriguing indeed.
Based on the official character assessment and portrayal of Zi Liyuan, it was clear that he had already combed through the Dragon Academy's warehouse and had not found what he was looking for, which was why he turned his attention to the military.
When the time came, he planned to accompany him throughout the whole process to see exactly what item he was after. He must keep a detailed record, and even the items he wanted to exchange had to be subjected to strict scrutiny.
Anything that Lord Zi took a fancy to would definitely, definitely not be simple!
Having returned to the hall, Zi Liyuan pondered about when to take over the munitions company.
The military factories were already in the process of urgently constructing super-large automated production lines for equipment intended for ordinary professionals, and two lines had already been set up. However, to meet the market demand, merely two production lines were far from enough.
As for equipment tailored to the military, there was still no progress.
He had copied the list given to him by Shen Yurou and sent it to Uncle Wang Fu, asking for his help to recruit the Mechanics from the Imperial Capital and the nearby garrison cities as listed.
Ten days had passed, and the number of successful recruits was less than fifty.
Hoping these Mechanics could successfully create the Silver Hero Equipment would only be possible after they had been trained by Shen Yurou.
By then, the number of those who could successfully produce Silver Equipment would likely be far less than the actual number of recruits.
After all, there was quite a big gap between practical ability and theoretical knowledge.
"Headache. Let's tentatively set the visit to the military base to ten days later after gathering a hundred Mechanics; there are other matters to attend to right now," he muttered.
Zi Liyuan sat on the sofa, with a jade token appearing in his hands, seemingly out of nowhere, which he fiddled with.
The square jade token had a blood-red "Battle" character etched on it—it was a challenge token.
The person who gave him this item was a senior from the second-year campus, ranked third in the dueling tournament leaderboards—Situ Linglong!
Sun Yuanzhu's best friend, and also a Career of Light Holy professional. However, she was not the kind of super healer burdened with bowling balls but a formidable Holy Light Knight!
"A Holy Light Knight who studies all three elements, tough in defense, lethal in offense, and able to heal, with control over minor forbidden spells from all three elements—this opponent is definitely tough to defeat," he thought.
Holy Shield Knights follow the path of defense, boasting extremely high resistances, and their life-saving skills like Holy Shield Technique and Holy Blessing Art make it very tough for peers to penetrate their defenses.
Retribution Knights follow the path of slaughter, harnessing the power of Holy Light to unleash terrifying light energy damage and can even use Holy Fire to burn the opponent's Spirit, a formidable combination of magic and martial prowess, making them difficult to deal with.
Holy Light Knights follow the path of healers, using Holy Light to heal everything, with generous healing capacities and skills like Redemption of Holy Light that can fully restore hit points at once. They also control the skill Holy Light's Redemption, which can resurrect professionals in dungeons!
Although there are many restrictions on resurrection, they still truly possess the ability to resurrect – a unique skill among Holy Light Professionals!
"The power of Holy Light nearly counters death and darkness, which weakens me quite a bit. If my own offensive capabilities can't topple her, then I'll just have to let the Bone Dragon Boss Legion give her a good thrashing," he considered.
It was not possible he couldn't win, but since his own offensive methods were mostly countered, he had to rely on his summoned creatures to bully his opponent.
A Necromancer with a few more minions is normal, isn't it?
Just the thought of activating his Reprint Skill and having more than three hundred Bone Dragon Bosses charge out, he figured, would certainly cast a significant psychological shadow over the second-year seniors.
As for the Epic Giant Dragon Bosses, he did not want to reveal all of them just yet. He planned to keep the Frost Giant, Golden Behemoth, and Hydra Monster as a surprise for the third and fourth-year seniors.
"But before the battle begins, I need Senior Cai to hype it up. I want the betting to start, and I want it all on Situ Linglong," he planned.
Thinking of the substantial amount of Contribution Value that was about to be credited to his account, Lord Zi's mental shopping list once again grew considerably.
The reason Zi Liyuan agreed to this fight was actually that he was too lazy to continue with the matchmaking battles.
He had to go through ten matchmaking battles to enter the ranked challenges, but he felt this was a waste of time.
He had already fought three matches, and honestly, the strength of the three opponents was just so-so; they were far from being a match for him.
Moreover, after those three battles, the chance of getting a lot of betting stakes was almost impossible unless one of the top ten seniors from the second year took action.
But matchmaking battles have their limits; they won't feature the top ten names on the leaderboard, so Lord Zi lost interest in continuing to play in them.
Now having the opportunity to face off directly against the third-ranked player, if this news gets out, it will surely attract the attention and interest of second-year students.
Shaking his head, Lord Zi put away his belongings and then entered the basement.
With a wave of his magic wand and the chanting of a spell, a summoning array appeared in the center of the basement.
Accompanied by a series of dragon roars, a massive Black Dragon Sister tore through the restraints of space, running out from her unique summoning space.
Before Black Dragon Sister even approached Lord Zi, her form twisted and morphed into a tall and sexy dragon girl.
"Master~ summoning your servant, could it be that you require a ride?"
In her charming eyes, it seemed a spark was released, the Dragon Sister twisting her slim waist, stepping forward with sensual strides, her pale white hands gently lifting his chin, her voice soft yet filled with teasing.
"The weather is fine and the sun is warm and comfortable today, perfect for a good ride!
But before we go riding, let's take care of some serious business."
Riding a dragon out for a spin was quite impressive, especially when riding a Black Dragon Lord Boss, which could give Lord Zi an exhilarating sense of conquest.
"Master, what serious business do you want to do?"
Daris leaned in even bolder, her whole body draped soft and boneless against Zi Liyuan.
Her bowling ball, in the clash, emitted a distinct scent unique to giant dragons that was quite intoxicating.
"Of course, it's to help you evolve. Master has been waiting to ride a Black Dragon Epic Boss for quite some time now."
Holding the bowling ball, Lord Zi felt a wave of contentment in his heart but restrained his excitement, pulling out 10 [Lord's Hearts] from his Spatial Backpack.
"Master, are you really going to give Daris so many [Lord's Hearts]?"
The dragon girl who had just been flirtatious now covered her sexy red lips, eyes shining with anticipation.
"To ride an Epic Giant Dragon Boss every day, ten [Lord's Hearts] are mere trinkets in comparison, aren't they?"
There still lay 380 [Lord's Hearts] in the Spatial Backpack; he planned to use them to strengthen all the Undead Bosses he could summon, all at once.
He didn't expect all of them to evolve into Epic Bosses, but at the very least, they should be Lord Bosses, shouldn't they?
"Thank you, Master! From now on, Daris is your private property, yours to do as you please!"
The Dragon Sister leaned in close to Lord Zi's ear, gently exhaling Dragon's Breath, teasing him while also expressing her loyalty.
"Enough talk, let's see how this thing works, and how it turns a Lord Black Dragon Boss into the Black Dragon King, an Epic Boss!"
After giving the Dragon Sister's pert buttocks a pat, Zi Liyuan freed himself from her bowling ball antics and backed up ten meters.
Daris gave Lord Zi an affectionate glance, then her body twisted in a surge of dark energy, transforming back into a dragon form.
The massive body of the Black Dragon, its gaping maw opening and closing, swallowed the ten floating [Lord's Hearts] in the air.
"Roar~~!!"
With a heavenward roar, the entire body of the Black Dragon swelled and grew at that moment.
The Black Dragon, which was over ten meters tall and more than twenty meters long, now towered at thirty meters, with a body stretching over fifty meters in length.
Its dragon scales became even tighter, and its defensive capabilities improved by several degrees!
The dragon's head, body, claws, and tail all underwent changes, and a rich aura of dragon might spread forth, pressing down so hard that Lord Zi's complexion turned slightly pale.
