The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

[Holy Dragon Egg]: A level 10 dragon that has not yet hatched, the cub of the holy dragon.

He is currently in a state of continued weakness and is expected to survive for 18,173 hours.

As an advent hero, Xu Lai got a lot of information about this holy dragon egg as soon as he touched it.

This is not a blue dragon at all, its name should be called Holy Dragon.

"How long has your father obtained this blue dragon egg?"

"It's been a long time, probably ten years ago. I remember that my younger brother was just a little bit older at that time, and my father was not yet the king of horse thieves who could roam the grasslands."

"Ten years ago? Hasn't it been hatched for so long?"

Naru explained: “It’s not that we don’t want to hatch, it’s just that we can’t hatch at all.

In the past ten years, we have found countless methods, but all we can do is make the vitality of this dragon egg continue to weaken.

On the contrary, if we don't mess around, this dragon egg can still remain calm. "

As expected of a 10th-level life form, this young dragon is still very tenacious even if it has not been hatched.

The larvae of the holy dragon can survive for 18,173 hours, which is 757 days, a little more than two years.

Moreover, this egg has been tossed by their father and son for several years, otherwise it might survive until the next ten years.

“Its vitality is constantly weakening, and according to my estimation, it should only live for about two years.

Don't you think about selling it? A dragon's egg should be very valuable. "

This is not the kind of dragon that was recruited, let alone a, well, blue dragon egg.

"You don't know, but my father probably still has some hope.

Ten years ago, my father was just a leader of horse thieves and could never cross the threshold of high-level.

By coincidence, he discovered a dying blue dragon on the Pingfeng Mountains.

At that time, there were several corpses of ghost Behemoths and dozens of wolf knights on the ground. My father recognized them at a glance as the dragon-slaying team from the stronghold.

The Pingfeng Mountains stretch for thousands of miles, and most wild dragons like to live in the Pingfeng Mountains.

Even an adult dragon would not be able to break free easily from the huge net of the wolf knights.

Coupled with a few Behemoths who can ignore the powerful physical defense of the dragon, the dragon-slaying team in the stronghold can be said to be invincible in the Pingfeng Mountains.

But they didn't expect that the blue dragon would be so powerful. Even though its flying ability was restricted and there was a powerful ghost Behemoth, it was still no match.

My father said that if the blue dragon had not just given birth and was in a weak stage, she would have been able to leave calmly after killing those orcs.

But she had to guard her dragon egg, couldn't escape, and was in a period of weakness. In the end, she could only die with these orcs.

At that time, my father did not have a space backpack, so he only carried back a large amount of dragon blood and the most precious dragon egg.

It was after bathing in the dragon's blood that my father advanced to a high level and became the leader of the 7th level horse thief.

My brother and I were able to advance to level 6 knights at this age only after bathing in dragon blood.

Moreover, my brother was younger when he was bathed in dragon blood, and his talent was much better than mine.

Don't look at the fact that he is only 15 years old and is only a fourth-level trainee knight. In fact, he has been a trainee knight three years ago and has already met the standards for an advanced knight's retinue.

The reason why we have been unable to advance is because our original mentor passed away, but Count Aini put forward extremely harsh conditions for my father, so we were delayed. "

Xu Lai swallowed, coughed and said, "If you want me to help your brother advance, that's no problem at all.

I can wait until your father and brother come over.

But if you want him to join my army now, my opinion is still to wait.

Don't worry, his talent is so good, I won't let him be buried. Let him wait for another year.

16 years old. As soon as his 16th birthday passes, I will specially recruit him to join the army. "

Nalu smiled happily and handed the holy dragon egg to Xu Lai respectfully with both hands.

Xu Lai took the box containing the holy dragon egg. This was a rare treasure that was able to create two geniuses and advance to a high-level profession just by shedding blood.

It's a pity that if this rare treasure cannot be hatched, it will die in about two years.

There are also dragon slayers in the empire, and of course there are people who have obtained dragon eggs.

But their method of hatching dragon eggs is not necessarily advisable, otherwise Bello and his son would not be able to hatch them for a long time.

Like red dragons, black dragons and poisonous dragons, there are still ways to hatch them even if the dragon mother is gone.

For example, red dragons and black dragons like to absorb fire, while poisonous dragons need toxins.

On the other side of the barrier, there is a complete set of mature incubation, training, and education plans.

But these giant dragons in the wild are extremely rare in number, and the chances of being able to capture cubs are even less.

Even if someone had captured it in history, most of them, like Bello and the others, failed to hatch until the vitality of the dragon egg disappeared.

"What methods have you, father and son, used?"

Xu Lai didn't know how to hatch it, but in order to avoid tormenting the dragon egg, which had very little vitality left, he still had to ask.

"Ahem, according to the information we looked for before, it is said that it is safest to use rare resources for incubation.

So we used top-grade materials including gold coins, crystals, gems, and even mithril, fine gold, etc., but still there was no good effect. "

Xu Lai also thought of this method at first.

Resources such as crystals and gems are called rare resources not only because they are rare in quantity, but also because they each have energy with different attributes.

Most of these energies can be needed by high-level creatures, such as angels need gems, dragons need crystals, mercury, sulfur, etc.

But the holy dragon couldn't absorb even top-level materials like mithril, so Xu Lai really didn't know what to look for to hatch.

If it were an ordinary egg, as long as the temperature was right, it would be fine, but this was a dragon egg, and it was a level 10 holy dragon, so it would definitely not hatch like an egg.

"What other methods have you used?"

Naru shook his head and said: "I have used some, and my father also used the blood of various creatures to smear it, but it still had no effect.

As for other methods, I'm not sure. "

Xu Lai held the box firmly with one hand, and easily supported Naru, a young man weighing 200 kilograms, with the other hand.

“I’ve asked someone to find a room for you in the base camp, and you will live in my base camp first.

When your father and others come over, I will arrange for you to stay in a town underground.

You also know that your father's portraits are hanging all over the world, and he has offended many people, so it would be safer to live underground. "

Naru nodded shamefully and said: "My father said that being able to survive is already a gift from you, sir."

Xu Lai shook his head and said: "One code is one code, and it's not like your father didn't pay the price.

In addition, his name is Tahan, he is the knight commander of our knights, and he will also be your direct leader in the future. "

After accepting a level 10 holy dragon egg, Xu Lai also rarely showed his enthusiasm.

He took the initiative to call Tahan over and introduced them to each other.

Facing Tahan, Naru did not kneel again, but performed a universal knightly salute.

After Tahan returned the courtesy, he said to Naru:

"I mostly recruit knights here, you don't need to know them.

But there are still some of your seniors in the team, most of them have advanced to heroic knights, and a few are just ordinary knights.

Come back, I will take you to get to know him. "

Naru nodded again and said: "Thank you, Knight Commander. I will definitely learn from the seniors."

Xu Lai nodded to Harris and said to Nalu:

"Okay, let's go down and rest first. I originally planned to set off today, but something delayed me today.

Just in time, you can also settle down first, and Tahan will call you for dinner in the evening and introduce you to other people. "

"OK."

Naru responded and followed Harris happily away.

After Naru left, Xu Laicai sat down with the box containing the holy dragon egg and studied the egg carefully.

However, all the methods he could think of have probably been used by the Bellos and his son.

However, Xu Lai also has an advantage, that is, Bello and his son can judge the status of the young dragon at most through the heartbeat in the dragon egg.

But as long as Xu Lai can touch the dragon egg, he can feel its status anytime and anywhere.

For example, at this moment, the vitality of the dragon egg is losing every second.

Xu Lai read the seconds silently. The loss of vitality basically matched the time, indicating that the external situation at this time had almost no impact on the dragon egg.

So Xu Lai called to Giselle, Anna and the others who were coming over.

Let them help each other and use rare resources such as gems, crystals, mercury, sulfur, etc. to build large grooves in the open space.

Although Bello had already tested it, Xu Lai had no other way at the moment, not to mention that he also needed to verify his conjecture in person.

Xu Lai first carried the dragon egg into the pile of gems, and used this world's timer to strictly record 5 minutes, which is 300 seconds.

The prompt on the dragon egg is that 299 seconds of life force have passed, which seems to be one second missing.

But it's also possible that Xu Lai just experienced a slight delay at these two points.

Moreover, Xu Lai had already wrapped the dragon egg completely with gems. Even if these 5 minutes could delay its death for one second, it would only be a delay.

If the gems don't work, just replace them with crystals. The energy of crystals seems to be more popular with the holy dragon than the energy of gems. After 300 seconds, the dragon egg only lost 260 seconds of its life.

With such a clear feeling, Xu Lai immediately poured out all the crystals in his space backpack.

Everyone worked together to pile these crystals around the dragon egg, forming a small crystal mountain.

Still 5 minutes later, the dragon egg lost 240 seconds of life.

This shows that the more crystals, the better the effect, but the required crystals also increase geometrically.

At this rate, Xu Lai estimated that the crystals needed might be on the order of millions. (End of chapter)
