Chapter 782: Arrival at Dragon Island
Chapter 782: Arrival at Dragon Island
On the afternoon of the fourth day, Zhong Feng, accompanied by two senior companions, successfully reached the waters near Dragon Island.
The defensive capabilities of Dragon Island had indeed been significantly enhanced since Zhong Feng's last visit. Back then, the island had virtually no defenses, and the dragon guards responsible for its protection were sparse. However, this time, the grand protective array of the island was activated, and a beautiful, translucent, light blue shield enveloped Dragon Island. The shield emitted a soft blue glow, making the entire island look like a radiant blue gemstone, breathtakingly beautiful.
The number of dragon guards around the island had also increased several times, standing guard at the most important entrances and exits. The formidable mental power of the dragons covered the entire entry and exit points, preventing any outsiders from entering.
Seeing this, Zhong Feng couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his brow. He was grateful for the help of his two senior companions; otherwise, he might not have been able to enter Dragon Island with his current abilities. His "Reflection Water Moon Stone" had already been used up, and it would be extremely difficult for him to evade the mental scans of these mighty dragons.
Thankfully for the two seniors!
...
As they arrived near Dragon Island, three or four dragon guards flew over to greet them. Dragon Island had a total of about 20,000 dragons, and they had lived together for hundreds of years, becoming very familiar with each other.
These dragon guards also recognized Tao Qian and Jun Shiyi, the two seniors.
"Elanikus, Varastaz, where have you been these days?" the lead white dragon guard, Geyzta, asked in a rough voice, flying over to bump wings with them. Bumping wings was a very friendly way for dragons to greet each other.
"Geyzta, my old friend, how have you been? We just returned from the Wilderness Continent," the senior Tao Qian warmly replied to the white dragon guard.
Senior Jun Shiyi, looking at the protective shield covering Dragon Island, asked with a puzzled expression, "Everyone, may I ask what's going on? Why is the grand protective array activated? Could it be that the White-Headed Eagles are causing trouble again?"
The dragons and the White-Headed Eagles had always been enemies. The White-Headed Eagles were one of the food sources for the dragons, but the eagles were unwilling to be eaten, leading to a long-standing enmity. In recent centuries, as the dragon population gradually declined, the White-Headed Eagles, with their strong reproductive ability, had grown in numbers. The old enmity between them reignited, and the eagles began to launch counterattacks on Dragon Island. Several battles had been fought, with no clear victor.
Thus, upon seeing the protective shield, Senior Tao Qian immediately inquired if the White-Headed Eagles had come.
"No, no, the White-Headed Eagles haven't come," the dragon guard Geyzta replied with a wry smile. "It's not about the White-Headed Eagles, but some other issues on the island... Let me take you inside, and I'll explain on the way."
"Alright," the two seniors nodded, following the dragon guard as they flew into Dragon Island.
...
At this moment, in the cave of the White Dragon Queen.
The White Dragon Queen was coiled atop a massive golden mountain, using her mental power to construct a map of Dragon Island in front of her. The White Dragon Princess, Koko, was nestled in her mother's embrace, her large eyes curiously watching the map her mother created.
"Koko," the White Dragon Queen extended her dragon claw, pointing at the map. "This is the map of Dragon Island. Starting tomorrow, you don't have to stay in the cave all the time. You can move around within the island, but I've marked some areas where you must not go without my permission."
The White Dragon Queen used her mental power to make overall modifications to the map, removing the coastal area within 10 kilometers of the island's edge and some regions not monitored by the dragon guards.
Before long, she had wiped away nearly half of the map.
Princess Kokko of the White Dragon looked at the map with tears welling up in her eyes. "Mom, can't I go down to the sea to catch some fish? When will I be able to go into the sea and eat fresh seafood again?"
For all the dragons in the dragon clan, the greatest interest was going down to the sea to catch fish. Especially now, at the end of spring and the beginning of summer, it was the time when fish were most abundant and fattest. Being forbidden from the sea was perhaps the most sorrowful thing in the world.
"Ah, Kokko, Mom can't do anything about it," the White Dragon Queen stretched out her dragon head and gently nudged Kokko's head, her face full of helplessness.
"Emperor Solarius's decree is known to you. There should be many bounty hunters lurking around the Dragon Island.
Mom is really worried that you might be captured by those money-hungry bounty hunters if you leave the island. It's for your safety.
Once things calm down, you can go out and play then."
"Ah, I know," Kokko sighed helplessly, her body shrinking a bit, feeling a chill all over.
After a moment, she lifted her head and looked at her mother. "Mom, does that mean our trade with the humans of Blue Star has been cut off too?"
"Of course, it has to be cut off!" The White Dragon Queen snorted through her nostrils, her anger flaring up at the mention of the humans of Blue Star.
If it weren't for those humans, they wouldn't be in such a passive position now.
It would be best not to deal with those humans anymore.
"But Mom, we promised to trade with Drayk," Princess Kokko lifted her head and said.
"Drayk" was the alias Su Yu used when he first came to Dragon Island.
"Trading with hammers now! Do you want to never leave Dragon Island for the rest of your life?" The White Dragon Queen, furious, stretched out her dragon wing and gently smacked her daughter's head. "We've already been caught by the Skrull. If we continue trading with the humans of Blue Star, do you want to push yourself into a fire pit?"
"Mom, I know I was wrong," Princess Kokko quickly responded, her heart sinking a bit.
She thought of that man's silhouette, the man who rode on her back, circling around Dragon Island with her.
Now, that man hasn't come to Dragon Island for two months.
"Has he already forgotten about me?" Princess Kokko sighed inwardly.
...
Just then, a White Dragon guard flew quickly to the cave entrance and shouted, "Your Majesty, Ilanikus and Varrastaz have just returned to Dragon Island. They heard that Princess Kokko had an accident and want to visit you."
"There's no need for them to visit. Kokko is fine now. Ilanikus and Varrastaz must be tired from their journey. Let them rest, they will definitely see Kokko in the future," the White Dragon Queen politely declined.
Since Kokko's accident, most of the dragons on Dragon Island had come to visit her.
The White Dragon Queen was busy dealing with the visits and could only find ways to decline some of them.
But unexpectedly, the White Dragon guard outside the cave said, "Your Majesty, Ilanikus and Varrastaz said that their visit isn't primarily because of Princess Kokko. They have something more important to say.
The matter is significant and must be explained to you in person."
"Is that so..." The White Dragon Queen thought for a moment and replied, "Alright, let them come in. If they want to get married, I'm willing to be their witness."
