Volume 2: The Road to Dragon Feast Chapter 77: Dragon Feast Ceremony
Murphy figured out the pros and cons of this dragon feast ceremony and began to think about it.
Although being a hero is not bad, Murphy still misses the time when was an ancient dragon boss. It would be great if he could have both.
I just don’t know if there is any difference between the dragon transformed through the Dragon Feast Ceremony and the authentic dragon, and which one is stronger.
Aidan (Knight of the North Wind): "Tell me, mysterious voice, which is stronger, the dragon power obtained through the dragon feast or the real dragon?"
Mysterious voice: "Hahahaha, ignorant human, you only think that the dragons in the world are extremely powerful, but you don't know that they are just some degraded descendants . What they have is just the remaining power of the ancient dragons. They have dirty blood flowing in their bodies and unclean flesh and blood. Those are useless dregs...
The Dragon Feast Ceremony is to take the essence and discard the dross.
At the end of the Dragon Feast Road, there is an eternal and immortal existence. Becoming a dragon is just a stepping stone - what difference does it make between being strong and weak? Mortals who pursue power, go and perform the Dragon Feast, and you will get everything you wish for, and even more..."
Is it really that cool? As Murphy listened to the mysterious voice's description, he couldn't help but have some ideas in his mind. It seems that after turning into a dragon, he may have to face subsequent plot tasks, eternal and immortal existence - could it be becoming an ancient dragon?
It should be, but this step probably also hides greater risks. After all, the greater the power, the higher the risk. If you want to get a dragon, you have to take the risk of becoming a monster. If you want to become an ancient dragon, you don’t know how much it will cost.
The so-called danger in the mission warning should refer to the risks in the template conversion process. After all, once you become a very annoying BOSS like the Lava Earth Dragon, you can neither fly nor have your own monster forces. Sooner or later you will be found and killed by adventurers.
And the difficulty of exploring the power of ancient dragons will only become higher later.
But it doesn’t matter. I’m not afraid of the difficulty, but I’m afraid of having no direction to move forward.
He felt that he already understood the pros and cons of this, and after hesitating for a moment, he made up his mind - then he would carry out the Dragon Feast. Even if he failed, he would just become the BOSS, but if he succeeded, it would be great.
Murphy felt that with his experience playing with dragons, controlling the power of the dragon should not be a big problem.
It may be difficult for other players to directly control the body of a dragon. After all, a dragon has four limbs and wings, and its action model is completely different from that of a humanoid creature. However, he has been trained since he was a child and is very experienced, so there will definitely be no problem.
Aidan (Northern Wind Knight): "I accept. How do we start the Dragon Feast?"
Mysterious voice: "Sit before that altar, bring your offering, make your sacrifice, and the ceremony can begin."
Aidan (Northern Wind Knight): "Sacrifice?"
A mysterious voice said: "The flesh and blood of the dragon race is only a manifestation of its strength. Its true strength comes from its control over the laws. The core of the laws is the dragon's heart, which is the embodiment of the dragon's power. Only a powerful dragon race can breed it..."
Mo Fei thought to himself, what a coincidence, he just happened to have a Dragon Heart with him.
He took out the heart of the lava earth dragon and placed it on the round table-like altar. "What should I do now?"
Mysterious voice: "You must devour it and transform it into your own power."
Aidan (Northern Wind Knight): "Devour, do you mean eat it?"
"That's right."
Murphy had previously thought that the word "swallow" was just an adjective, but he didn't expect it to have a literal meaning. "
He looked at the dragon heart in front of him. It was the size of two fists. It looked like a heart, but it emitted a scorching red light. Even though the lava earth dragon had long been dead, the heart was still beating.
He picked up the dragon's heart, feeling a little confused. Can this thing really be eaten? This is a magical material, and the lava earth dragon is...
Mysterious voice: "Eat! Mortals who pursue the power of the dragon, feast on the flesh and blood, devour the power, integrate the power of the law into your blood, cast it into your soul, feel the power of the dragon, eat it... eat it... go... go... go... go."
The voice kept whispering in my ears, with a long echo.
Murphy suddenly felt as if something was watching him, and there were a lot of things. Those invisible eyes seemed to be looking forward to everything that would happen next. The salivating feeling made his back feel cold. His eyes fell on the dragon's heart and on his body. He could feel and even experience the eagerness of those beings.
If he doesn't continue, maybe something bad will happen...
Murphy gritted his teeth and took a bite.
The salty, sticky dragon blood poured into his mouth. The hot taste was like burning magma. Murphy felt a stream of burning fire flowing down his throat and spreading to his internal organs, limbs and bones.
He took bite after bite, trying to suppress the burning sensation and the urge to vomit. He felt disgusted at first, but soon he felt hungry. The more he ate, the hungrier he became. He longed for more.
He closed his eyes, bit and swallowed hard, and in a trance, he seemed to hear someone singing in his ear.
Hey--hoo--ha! Ho--hoo--ha!
Ah—ah—ah—ah—ah—ah!
The singing was majestic and sacred, as if many voices were singing together, yet it was vague, as if it was just an echo in the wind. He could recognize the meaning of the singing. It was a hymn sung in the ancient dragon language, praising the Dragon Feast and those who pursued the power of the dragon.
The dragon feaster, the dragon feaster, feast on flesh and blood, devour the dragon!
Those who feast on the dragon, those who feast on the dragon, seize the power and forge the dragon soul!
Ah—ah—ah—ah—ah—ah!
Murphy looked around in horror. He had a feeling that the one singing was the source of those invisible gazes.
He continued to eat, and the song continued.
Those who feast on the dragons, those who feast on the dragons, embark on a journey and there is no way back!
People of the Dragon Feast, people of the Dragon Feast, the time has come, wake up the Dragon God!
Hey--hoo--ha! Heh--hoo--ha...
Murphy knew there was no turning back, so he swallowed the remaining dragon heart in big gulps until the last piece of meat entered his mouth - uh, he burped.
All the eyes that were fixed on him disappeared in an instant.
The singing stopped instantly, and only the whistling sound of the wind echoed in my ears.
[System prompt: You have completed the Dragon Feast Ceremony and obtained the skill - [Flame Affinity]. ]
He checked the ability he had acquired.
[Fire Affinity (Passive Skill)
Passive Effect: Increases your fire resistance by 50 points and the power of your fire skills by 10%.
Skill introduction: Lava Earth Dragon Flor lives with flames and lava all year round. The power of flame has already permeated its scales, flesh, and even soul. Now this power has been injected into your flesh, making you no longer afraid of flames. 】
Is that all? Murphy felt the changes in his body and was somewhat disappointed. He had originally thought there would be some special effects, such as fire spitting from his body or glowing from his eyes.
It turned out that he only gained a passive skill.
The effect of the skill cannot be said to be bad, but it is not as amazing as he expected.
"Is that all?" he couldn't help but ask.
Mysterious voice: "No, this is just the beginning. Go hunt down more powerful dragons, bring back their hearts, perform dragon feasts, and devour their power. Your journey has just begun."
Murphy's mind moved, and he checked the mission of Dragon Feast Road.
【Road to the Dragon Feast (Original Story/Ongoing)
Current task progress: 10%.
