Rise of the White Dragon

15 days before Peter Christopher Martin entered the tower, Luan and Ingrid also entered and went to the 50th floor.

Ingrid this time managed to climb to the 50th floor with ease. Although she still felt some pressure, she, who was already in the Fourth Order, managed to bear it.

In the store on the 50th floor, Luan wore the white dragon mask that changes all the more flashy aspects of him, like the red-eye that is now blue, white hair that is now black, aura, and Qi that has changed to something more Yang and less Yin.

Ingrid wore the veil that covered her face again. The two passed through the great metal door, and reached the other side, in the world beyond the earth, the 50th floor.

"Wow!" Ingrid was amazed, it was like Luan said, she felt very small in that place, especially when looking at the sky and seeing so many stars so close, it was absurdly crazy.

Another thing was the distance she could see, because of the curvature of the earth, there was a limit, but in this place, there seemed to be no end, she looked straight ahead and could see living beings that were miles away.

Luan and Ingrid were wearing their usual armor.

"Amazing!" Ingrid looked in all directions in disbelief as she clasped her hands together. It was surreal seeing it for herself, even after she'd imagined what it would be like to hear Luan say it earlier.

"Didn't I tell you?" Luan smiled behind his mask when he saw Ingrid's reaction.

"Well, seeing in person and listening are two different matters." Ingrid took Luan's arm and they started walking.

People as always wanted to approach them and ask them to buy things in the tower, but the coldness that the two emit has made them back off.

It would do nothing good if they wasted too much time with them. Mainly planning to stay 20 days before returning to Earth.

Clouds appeared at their feet and began to float. In a matter of milliseconds, they were far from the city and we're close to a forest, however, their destination was further away, where the temperature was colder, and there was the cave where he and his four friends had made it.

As they approached, the Silverfang Walruses grew wary. They didn't recognize Luan.

Dropping to the snowy ground, Ingrid looked at the Groundhog horde.

Seconds later, a woman wearing a veil came out of the cave.

"You came back." Even now, Lenore still recognized Luan, of course, mainly because of his skill and because of the armor.

"Have you been here all the time?" Luan's voice was indifferent and even a little cold.

"Yes." She replied with the same indifference and coldness in her voice: "Is this woman?"

"My girlfriend," Luan responded with indifference.

"...Mom won't like this at all..." Lenore muttered under her breath, but Luan and Ingrid heard.

"Mm? Why won't your mother like it?" Luan arched his brow. He began to suspect even more that this girl was Nora Van Steffan's daughter.

"..."

Instead of her answering, she simply ignored his question and continued to look coldly at Ingrid.

"What's up, want to fight?" Ingrid was not intimidated by Lenore's cold gaze.

Lenore ignored Ingrid's question and turned to Luan: "Shall we hunt? I know where there are other monsters with dragon blood."

Ingrid snorted coldly in Lenore's direction and looked at Luan.

"It won't work, she also uses the blood to improve the cultivar," Luan said as he held Ingrid's hand.

Ingrid smiled adoringly, it was a shame you couldn't see because of the veil.

Lenore was silent again. After a while, she said nonchalantly: "I only need half the blood, she can have the other half, while d... you take the rest."

"D?" Luan frowned at her and looked at Ingrid, seeing her nod, Luan said nonchalantly, "Okay."

'D, for a dragon?' Luan thought.

A pair of wings appeared on her back, and Lenore said in her cold voice, "Follow me."

Luan has created clouds again and starts following her with Ingrid beside him.

On the way, Luan talked to Ingrid, while Lenore remained silent.

Luan noticed the path and noticed that many things have changed, as the icy area has increased a lot, some part of the forest has been destroyed in the distance, a mountain that used to be, has now disappeared.

Of course, those were the most glaring things, there were other things that changed.

"Nora..." Luan muttered to see Lenore's reaction.

He saw that she lost her balance a little, but continued to fly without looking back.

What he didn't know was that behind the veil, tears began to appear in Lenore's red and gold eyes. However, she forced herself not to make any noise.

Lenore's movements didn't go unnoticed by Luan, he was even more suspicious.

Ten minutes later Lenore said with her usual coolness, "We're almost there."

"Mm." Luan and Ingrid just nodded in understanding.

After a few seconds, Lenore stopped and Luan and Ingrid saw a large monster, almost 10 meters in wingspan.

"Komodo dragon?" Ingrid muttered doubtfully, it sounded like a lot, but the size difference was glaring.

"Yes and no." Luan said: "It's a subspecies. It's called the Earth Dragon. It can't fly, but it's very powerful. Mainly the defense."

"Oh…" Ingrid nodded in understanding.

"You've improved a lot since the last time I saw you." Luan asked, "Can you make him freeze for 2 seconds?"

The earth dragon had the strength of 6 dragons, not quite a challenge for Luan and Ingrid, but since they were partnering, it was necessary for them to coordinate together.

"Yes." Lenore responds with indifference and looks at the earth dragon: "Say when necessary."

"Ingrid, throw a blood scythe, I'll attack next." Luan said and turned to Lenore: "You need to paralyze him the moment the blood scythe goes towards the earth dragon."

"Okay." Lenore nodded.

Ingrid took the pendant that turned into a big red mercury scythe, and then, she started to condense a red halo around it and shot it towards the earth dragon spinning very fast.

"Now," Luan said and started to cast a fist the size of a pickup truck and was ready to smash the earth dragon into the ground.

*Whoosh!*

At the same time, Lenore made the earth dragon freeze, the blood scythe cut into the earth dragon's back causing it to roar pitifully.

Then Luan's blow fell.

*Boooom!*

The earth shook, a crater formed.

The earth dragon has been flattened and the cloud has turned to water and the earth dragon begins to float, convulsing a few times before stopping.

"Okay, it's dead. They can take the blood." Luan said.

Lenore took out the same artifact as the one she used last time and took half the blood as agreed.

Ingrid walked over and placed her hand on the earth dragon and the remaining blood was sucked away by her.

"Impressive..." Lenore muttered.

Luan approached, after picking up some items needed for strength, he made the earth dragon transform into Credits.

[You received: 5,482 Credits]

After that, Luan turned to Lenore: "Shall we go to the next one?"

"Yes." Lenore nodded coolly.

Ingrid studied Lenore's behavior well, she suspected she was Nara in disguise, as she reacted to the name when Luan spoke, or even adopted daughter, perhaps? There were many possibilities, but one thing was almost certain, Lenore was somehow linked to Nora Van Steffan.

Ignoring Ingrid's gaze on her, Lenore said nonchalantly, "Next is a fire monkey with dragon blood. He has the strength of 7 dragons."

"Sounds good to me." Ingrid didn't fear, as she alone already had the strength of 8 dragons.

"So let's go." Luan nodded.

"Mm." Lenore looked at Luan before turning and starting to fly.

It didn't take long for them to move away from the forest they were in and arrive at a spot near a magma volcano.

The surrounding terrain was dry, with cracks, and a large cavern was a few meters away from the volcano.

"It's inside the cave," Lenore said in her cold voice.

"Are two." Luan felt the presence of another being inside the cave and it was a newborn.

"Let's go somewhere else, I didn't expect this one was pregnant and gave birth." Lenore easily gave up on killing by using her senses and noticing the presence of a baby monkey.

"All right." Luan nodded as Ingrid nodded.

"There's a water dragon alligator not far away, let's go." Lenore flew shortly thereafter.

Luan to follow using the cloud.

'She looks cold, but she didn't want to kill a puppy...' Ingrid thought as she tried to understand Lenore better.

After traveling a few kilometers in a few seconds, they came close to a large lake.

Inside the lake, it was possible to see a huge water dragon alligator swimming around, as it created waves when doing so.

It was at least 15 meters in wingspan, not counting the tail.

"Do you think you can?" Lenore asked indifferently. The strength of the water dragon alligator was 8 dragons.

"Yes." Luan nodded.

"Okay, I won't be much help, but I can still stop his movements," Lenore said.

"That's enough." Luan starts to form clouds around them.

Soon a bus-sized hand formed and was about to fall.

"Lenore, freeze him." Luan said and turned to Ingrid: "Ingrid, start attacking with blood scythe."

"Yes!" Ingrid held the scythe and started to play with the blood scythe as soon as she noticed the water dragon alligator stopped moving.
