A Dragon against the Whole World

Chapter 385: Chapter 315: Legendary Followers, Humanoid Brawling

”Seraphina, Ludwig.”

As the deep and resonant voice of the Red Iron Dragon reached the ears of the whispering Black Dragon and Green Dragon, it was as if they were doused with ice-cold water, instantly jolting them upright from their previously curled postures. They swiftly turned towards the direction of the Dragon Group’s leader, adopting a solemn stance without daring to breathe heavily.

”No need to be so tense.”

Galos glanced at the two adolescent dragons and asked, ”How has the research on the Dragon Forging Transformation Ceremony, the task I assigned to you, progressed so far?”

Upon hearing this, Green Dragon Ludwig slightly relaxed.

He raised his slender neck, covered with emerald scales, and respectfully replied, ”Through our repeated experiments and research verification, we have determined that the Dragon Forging Transformation Ceremony is best conducted in a sequence that progresses from simple to difficult, gradually advancing.”

”For example, the first ritual focuses on Dragon Scale Transformation, while the last, and most core and challenging, is Dragon Heart Transformation.”

Beside him, Black Dragon Seraphina lowered her voice and supplemented, ”We have successfully designed the complete process and rune array for the first Dragon Scale Transformation Ceremony, but it is not yet perfect, and its stability needs to be improved... The current success rate is approximately thirty percent.”

Thirty percent?

For a ceremony involving the essence of life transformation, even simplified procedures have a thirty percent success rate, which is already a significant breakthrough.

”The task you are carrying out is crucial to the tribe’s future.”

Galos solemnly stated, ”With every successfully perfected and solidified transformation ceremony, I will grant you unimaginable rich rewards—wealth, knowledge, or power, ensuring you will not be disappointed.”

After promising substantial incentives, his gaze slowly swept over the attending servant leaders.

”Oh... oh my lord, congr... congratulations on your awakening.”

Noticing Galos’ gaze, Gorging Demon Kalu, who was gnawing a large piece of unknown beastly meat with oil dripping from his mouth, spoke in a muffled voice, ”But... but, you seem... a bit thinner? Huh, must have slept too long, eaten too little! Should eat more, eat more.”

Galos carefully scrutinized this veteran follower of the Molten Iron Tribe.

Currently, Gorging Demon Kalu’s body is covered with fiery red dragon scales, a fierce dragon horn grows on his head, and a thick, powerful dragon tail drags behind him, exuding rich Dragon Vein creature characteristics.

His physique had long departed from the realm of ordinary ogres, swollen to a terrifying size akin to a Hill Giant, exceptionally robust and burly, with his arm muscles bulging like explosions, sinews knotted together, making him the most conspicuous presence among the oddly shaped servant leaders.

Galos’ eyes shone as he used Investigation Technique.

[Gorging Demon Kalu, Life Level: 16]

This was one level below Galos, but already counted as a formidable force capable of standing on its own.

Considering the terrifying innate talent of a Gorging Demon that allows rapid strengthening through devouring, this rate of improvement seems rather slow, as Kalu, following the Molten Iron Tribe’s campaigns, has devoured numerous powerful creatures and magic materials.

Theoretically, his life level should be higher.

The reason lies in that Kalu is no longer a pure Gorging Demon.

He is now a more powerful Dragon Vein Gluttonous Demon, with the bloodline of a long-lived Giant Dragon integrated within.

This considerably elevates his potential limit but simultaneously subjects him to the relatively slow growth cycle of dragon bloodlines, thereby slowing down the increase in life level.

”In any case, after more than a decade, the overall progress of the tribe leaders is quite satisfactory.”

Galos pondered inwardly, his gaze continued to sweep towards other servant leaders, consecutively activating Investigation Technique.

[Centaur Elvira, Life Level: 16]

[Werewolf Russell, Life Level: 14]

[Snake Woman Naries, Life Level: 17]

[Flying Dragon Tasha, Life Level: 14]

[Dogman Doug, Life Level: 13]

...

The core leaders of the Molten Iron Tribe each have their own specialties; almost every one has undergone the tempering of blood and fire, possessing remarkable experiences and unique characteristics, with different cards up their sleeves and high fighting spirits.

Under normal circumstances.

A typical adult dragon, or even some mature dragons, would struggle to truly rule such a talent-abundant, powerful tribe.

Only Galos could, with life levels only slightly higher than some followers, firmly control the entire tribe with peerless prestige and unfathomable power.

Before advancing to a young dragon, his life level was once even lower than several of his strongest followers.

Currently, among these servant leaders, the highest level remains Snake-man Sword Saint Naries, who has risen from level 16 to level 17.

The fastest to improve, however, is Mixed-blood Centaur Elvira.

Initially, Elvira’s life level wasn’t exceptionally outstanding among the followers, but under the influence of her superior talent, she gradually overtook others. Now, she has stably reached the threshold of level 16, second only to Snake-man Sword Saint.

As for the most capable and combat-effective among these leaders.

Galos believes it is none other than the voracious Gorging Demon Kalu, rather than the higher-level Snake-man Sword Saint.

Despite being one level lower, Kalu holds an absolute advantage in direct combat.

As time progresses, the esteemed Gorging Demon Kalu and Mixed-blood Centaur Elvira, both notable in Galos’ eyes, are destined to surpass the Snake-man Sword Saint in the future through their bloodline and talent, with the potential to reach the Legendary Domain.
