The Mighty Dragons Are Dead

Chapter 759: Chapter 0756: Phoenix Perch Parasol (Second Update)
 

Greater Elf!

The elf birthed by this Cordyceps Tree brimming with fire attribute mana, scared away by the Phoenix, had returned, and it was still a Greater Elf.

Instantly, there was an excitement akin to receiving double happiness.

“Leo, be quiet,” Liszt whispered softly, afraid of frightening the Greater Elf.

Upon hearing this, Leo lowered his head and continued to eat his Phoenix meat.

The Greater Elf, meanwhile, hid behind a tree trunk not far away, watching in Leo’s direction. When Liszt slowly approached, it retreated even further back, maintaining a distance of at least thirty meters from him. It tried to conceal its figure, but its bright magical aura dazzled like a lightbulb.

“I have Jade Powder.”

Liszt took out a handful of Jade Powder and sprinkled it into the air. The scent of the Jade Powder instantly made the Greater Elf shudder and, unable to resist, it slowly flew over, wanting to taste some Jade Powder.

The more it ate, the happier it became.

After picking up and eating the Jade Powder sprinkled on the ground, the Greater Elf looked towards Liszt’s palm, filled with a large handful of fragrant Jade Powder that radiated an aura of magic.

“Gulp.”

The Greater Elf seemed to swallow saliva, inching closer to Liszt, its fluttering wings shimmering. It soon arrived three meters in front of Liszt, its large eyes curiously observing him. It didn’t come any closer, restraining its desire and maintaining a cautious demeanor toward Liszt.

“Eat,” he said.

“Chee, clack, chee chee, clack clack,” the Greater Elf uttered a string of sounds, its tones somewhat similar to the previous calls of the Phoenix; it was unclear if it had learned this from the Phoenix.

Liszt couldn’t understand, but that didn’t hinder him from continuing to entice it: “Come on, eat, don’t miss the delicious Jade Powder.”

“Chee chee!”

Ultimately, the Greater Elf couldn’t resist its craving for Jade Powder. It rushed to Liszt’s hand, grabbed a small handful of Jade Powder, then ran off. After savoring it, it came back again. After repeating this three times, when it saw Liszt take out another handful of Jade Powder, it finally didn’t run away and settled on Liszt’s arm to eat.

Thus,

Liszt dabbed some Jade Powder on his finger and brought it to its mouth.

The Greater Elf’s body was a beautiful, translucent, pale white, with a rounded pentagonal leaf on its head, looking quite adorable. At first, it was puzzled, but still bit into Liszt’s finger—elves had exceptional teeth, given their fondness for Jade Powder.

Moreover, Liszt had charged his finger’s skin with Dou Qi, making it as delicate as could be.

The moment the Greater Elf took a bite, it immediately broke Liszt’s skin, feeling a connection between their hearts. A special sense of closeness was transmitted.

“Huh?” the Greater Elf was bewildered, unsure of what had happened.

But Liszt quickly transmitted a comforting emotion: “Don’t be afraid, little guy, we’re family now. There’s plenty of Jade Powder at my home; you can eat as much as you want.”

Through the bond of the contract, the Greater Elf understood and nodded obediently, and then pointed at Leo, who was eating meat, “Chee chee!”

It was actually expressing its fondness for Leo.

“Is that so.” Liszt was filled with joy for his third Greater Elf. Through the memories of the years and the changing of the seasons, he could tell that this Greater Elf was about a hundred years old, not too young, but with a calm and natural demeanor, devoid of the wild elves’ ferocious temper, “Then do you want to touch it?”

“Ah!”

“Then go ahead and touch it, don’t be afraid, Leo won’t hurt you.”

Encouraged by Liszt, the Greater Elf hesitated for a long time, but finally mustered the courage to fly onto one of Leo’s scales and, extending its little hand, touched Leo carefully before quickly flying away and returning to Liszt’s side, grinning broadly: “Krada, krada, krada!”@@novelbin@@

Leo looked at Liszt with dissatisfaction. If it wasn’t for Liszt communicating through the Dragon Heart Electrical Signal, asking him to stay still, he would have definitely swallowed that little thing in one bite.

Ach watched the Greater Elf, still expressing joy with strange sounds, with curiosity, “Brother, the Greater Elf likes dragons. Does that mean it is consciously trying to evolve by interacting with dragons?”

There were rumors that Greater Elves needed the power of dragons to evolve into Dragon Elves, but of course, it was just conjecture without solid proof.

“I don’t know.”

Liszt wasn’t very clear about this, but it didn’t stop him from speculating, “Since this Greater Elf likes dragons and their attributes are both Fire Attribute, maybe there really is some kind of destiny… Later, I will consult the Sapphire Duke and ask how the Dragon Elves of the Sapphire Family evolved.”

The Sapphire Family had an Oat Dragon Elf; they must know how Greater Elves evolve into Dragon Elves.

…

One Greater Elf, one Little Minor Elf, two Elf Bugs.

Two Phoenix carcasses, fourteen Phoenix Feathers, three Phoenix Eggs.

The trip to Flame Mountain was very satisfying for Liszt, and he had already decided that he would continue to seek out information about Sub-dragon Creatures and then set out for more adventures.

With the Magic Eye Dou Qi Secret Technique and the upgraded version of Dragon Eye Trajectory after Unity of Man and Dragon, no treasure could escape his search. Undoubtedly, this was a superior skill for expedition and treasure hunting—relying on this skill, he felt that he didn’t need to build a kingdom to develop; just adventuring alone could sustain a dragon’s life.

Perhaps the Evil Dragons living in the wilderness were comfortably surviving on the numerous Magical Beasts and elves in the Wild Forest.

“Since this Cordyceps Tree has been chosen by Phoenixes for nesting, but it’s not a Parasol Tree, let’s just call it ‘Phoenix Perch Parasol Tree’.” After discussing with Ach, Liszt determined the species of the Cordyceps Tree—Phoenix Perch Parasol, and the Greater Elf was the Phoenix Perch Parasol Tree Greater Elf.

“Ah.” The Greater Elf touched the leaves at the top of its head and didn’t voice its opinion.

Liszt continued, “As for the name of the Phoenix Perch Parasol Tree Greater Elf, let’s call it Ani.” Anivia was the name of the Crystal Phoenix in “League of Legends”, and since the Phoenix Perch Parasol Tree Greater Elf had an inseparable connection with the Phoenix, Liszt contrived to name it “Ani.”

The previous Pea Great Elf was called Ash, and now this Phoenix Perch Parasol Tree Greater Elf was called Ani, sounding like two brothers or sisters.

“Ani.” Ach called out.

Immediately, the Greater Elf turned its head to look at Ach, showing neither closeness nor avoidance, merely uttering a simple: “Ah.” It couldn’t speak yet, and after previous contact with the Phoenix, it had picked up a bunch of bird-like noises such as “lille, krada,” which needed to be slowly corrected.

Liszt looked at Leo, who had already finished eating the Phoenix meat: “Come back.”

Instantly, Leo transformed into a blaze and rushed into his body, then signaled Ani to gather the Cordyceps before beginning to set up camp. After pitching the tent and taking out the Crystal Lamp, he and Ach delved into a discussion about the changes in the Phoenix Feathers—he had a feeling that the nature of the Phoenix Feathers was changing and contained some secret.

Once he unlocked this secret, his understanding of Magic Power would rise to a new level.
