Steel steam and flame

"The three primary colors have nothing to do with us. Tovilest should pay more attention. He is now within the boundless sea tundra. You have been there for a long time. I still need your help. Let your people pay more attention."

"Of course." Li Suman replied, putting down the empty glass, "That's it for this time. I hope the next time I contact you, I will bring good news."

,,,,,,

After receiving the information that the items had arrived at the storage point, Cassia asked Delya to take the people to the Borghese area first. She took three jars of concentrated dragon blood, checked out of the room, and left the city at night. This time it didn't go well. Halfway through, I saw an airship sailing far in the sky, with the dragon's head-shaped logo of the empire and military on it. There were five ships in total, two of which were used for standard transportation, with a length of nearly one thousand meters. Escorted by three other cruiser-level airships, they slowly drove towards the ruins of the base where he had stayed. The influence of the giant wolf disappeared, and the reconstruction plan was immediately put on the agenda.

The temporary change of route took him twice as long. Four days later, Cassia arrived at the edge of the southern forest. It wasn't until the limo could move no further that he rushed towards Cassie Hui on foot.

Cassia appeared to be extra cautious. Cassia did not want to meet anyone from the military. On the other hand, it was because he had been away for more than ten days. He did not know whether the young dragon Cassia Hui would change during this period and regard him as an enemy. . But I think that with the training and familiarity with the body during this period, even if the baby dragon cannot be killed, escaping will definitely not be a problem.

Half a day later, the southern forest ushered in dusk, and it was already very dark in the dense forest. Approaching the originally designated area, Cassia made a low-level sound, detected the general terrain, and moved forward steadily at a constant speed.

Not long after, there was a slight abnormal sound in Cassia's ears. He quickened his pace, and soon a place where a creature had obviously lived appeared in front of him. It is among several ancient trees, covered with rotten leaves. The dead leaves look like they have been pressed by heavy objects for a long time, and there is a fishy smell in the air.

Narrowing his eyes slightly, Cassia saw a dark gray tail falling outside the huge ancient tree. Hearing the sound of him approaching, in the dim light, I saw a stone sticking out from the place covered by the ancient tree. It is dozens of times the size of an ordinary tactical knife and has been ground to a rough tactical knife style. Because of the material of the stone, the surface has been polished so smooth that it can almost be seen as a mirror surface.

The surface of the stone not only reflected Cassia's standing figure sighing, but also mostly captured the shadow of a dragon that looked weird because it stood up.

Seeing that it was Cassia, the young dragon Cassie Hui walked out from behind the ancient tree. He didn't know what the expression was on his face, but he could see happiness in his half-crawling posture as he walked over. Cassie Hui made a cry, which was similar to the meaning of hello in dragon language. Cassia made the same sound, which was a greeting in the increasingly dark jungle. One person and one dragon made the atmosphere suddenly cool.

Without saying anything, Cassia, who thought the situation would change, finally gave up the idea of ​​asking something from the young dragon. But I tentatively asked what the young dragon had been doing these past few days, and the answer was that besides eating, there wasn’t much worth noting. The amount of food consumed was large, and the light gray scales turned to black. Cassia was not sure about the specific process of dragon growth. What this phenomenon represents can only be guessed by himself.

"Maybe the name isn't quite appropriate." On the way back to the limo with Cassie Hui, Cassia turned her head and glanced at the young dragon, thinking, "Maybe it would be more appropriate to call her Cassie Hei." She muttered to herself. When the young dragon heard it, he immediately let out a low roar with unknown meaning. Gradually he learned to control the volume of his voice. This was the only thing that Cassia was satisfied with more than ten days ago.

Beside the limo, Cassia took out the three steel jars and approached them carefully with Cassia Hui's expectant eyes. You can feel the amazing heat radiating from the young dragon's body. The body temperature is about sixty or seventy degrees. There is an aura of impatience, but I don't know if it's because the young dragon is afraid, or if it's because of an instinctive sense of well-being due to age and experience. In the eyes of young dragons, Cassia has always been positioned as another mature dragon that is many years older than him.

Putting the jar to his mouth, the young dragon bit into the jar and poured concentrated dragon blood into his stomach. The sharp teeth sink into the hard metal surface of the can and can be broken with a little force. The power that comes with birth is indeed the envy of humans and second-class creatures.

At this time, we can observe the scales that have deepened in color up close. The curved triangular shape is spread out piece by piece except for the wing membrane, like the small roofs built in some remote areas, layer by layer, tightly combined like clothing. The head is generally an irregular triangle with some slightly soft body spines, shaped like human hair. The nostrils are more like hard rock caves that have been naturally weathered to remove impurities. The horny bodies have formed many four-sided thorns on the head that are harder than steel. The color in that pair of eyes was unusually bright, and the bright red cross pupils brought Cassia's memory back to the short time before the surgery at the military school.

After injecting many hormones into the body, the last pair of eyes that appeared in front of him were indeed in the form of a young dragon.

"Not showing hostility to him because of food shows that the relationship between the two has been well established." Looking at the young dragon next to him, and then thinking about the large amount of breeding information from the library, Cassia judged about the relationship between himself and the young dragon.

A few minutes after drinking the concentrated dragon blood, the scales on the young dragon made a crisp and muffled sound. Smaller parts of the scales were naturally pushed down by the regrown scales at this moment, but more of them continued to deepen in color until they turned black and gray, and then stopped completely.

Trying to put her hands on the baby dragon's side, Cassia could feel the body temperature twice as high as that of a human being. That is the result of huge reactions and energy exchange losses occurring all the time in the body.

Cassia Gray was very satisfied with his change. He opened his mouth, used his front paws to dig at the steel can in front of him, looked at Cassia, and let out a cry.

"No more." A simple sentence made the young dragon let out a mournful roar, which quickly spread through the dense forest. Ignoring Cassie Hui's mood, Cassia picked up the shed dark gray scales, held them in her hand and scratched them with a tactical knife. The texture is very firm and also has a decent weight. Tactical knives can only leave barely noticeable scratches on it. Compared with the scales grown after one's own scales, the ones on dragons are of much higher quality.

"As you grow, will you keep shedding these things?" Cassia asked, shaking the scales in front of the young dragon.

Contrary to Cassia's expectation, the young dragon nodded, and his dull face seemed to be asking Cassia why he asked such a strange question.

"Very hard materials can be used in various fields after simple processing." Cassia thought, "Sucarius originally said that the empire had more than 500,000 dragons in captivity. As they grew, As well as artificial collection, whether it is blood, various tissues, or scales, the quantity should be extremely large. So where will it be used? If this kind of thing can be smelted and extracted,..."

Thoughts were running rapidly, and Cassia thought of advantage and terror, as well as Hessler's weapons.
