Chapter 826: Bald Eagle Dokeni
Chapter 826: Bald Eagle Dokeni
" Nope, I don't feel anything's off," Old Li scratched his head.
But after a moment's pause, Old Li continued, "But look at it, don't you think the two situations are too similar?"
Old Li waved his hand, and a massive bald eagle with a wingspan of nearly five meters appeared on the empty ground in front of them.
This giant bald eagle was named Dokeni, a descendant of the Bald Eagle Emperor, a sixth-stage creature. It was one of the primary heirs to the eagle throne.
The Bald Eagle Emperor had sent Dokeni to Blue Star as an important test for the young eagle.
Yesterday at noon, Chancellor Cao had taken Old Li to the bald eagle's encampment, where Old Li used the [Tame Beast] skill to place Dokeni in his pet space, bringing it back to Blue Star as a special envoy of the bald eagle clan.
Old Li felt that Zhong Feng's behavior of making him "bring the dragon clan's envoy back to Blue Star" was exactly like what the bald eagle clan had done, so he summoned Dokeni.
...
Poor Dokeni had no idea what was happening.
After being summoned, it curiously tapped the ground with its talons and excitedly asked, "What, have we already arrived at Blue Star?"
But as soon as it looked up, it saw the massive face of Dragon Emperor Cadrigus.
It was so startled that its entire body froze, and it almost fell over.
The dragon clan was the bald eagle clan's arch-nemesis. When the dragon clan was at its peak, bald eagles were often prey for dragons.
Only when the dragon clan retreated to Dragon Island and rarely ventured into the Wild Continent did the hunting of bald eagles by dragons gradually decrease.
Seeing Dragon Emperor Cadrigus, Dokeni felt an overwhelming sense of fear.
"Old traitor Cao! You've deceived us! And you, even if I become a ghost, I won't let you off!"
After a moment of stiffness, Dokeni immediately fell into a state of furious rage, charging at Old Li and using its sharp beak and talons to tear at him.
It had completely misunderstood Old Li's intentions, thinking it had been deceived by Cao and was being sent to Dragon Island to be food for the dragons.
Of course, it was furious.
Old Li, confused, jumped backward, bewildered. "Dokeni, what's wrong? I didn't deceive you!"
Old Li didn't know that the dragon clan was the natural enemy of the bald eagle clan; otherwise, he wouldn't have so casually summoned Dokeni.
"Still saying you didn't deceive me?" Dokeni, in a rage, charged at Old Li again. "Aren't you trying to send me to the dragon clan as food?"
"No, I would never think of such a thing," Old Li quickly drew a long spear and activated the [Intimidate] skill to block Dokeni's frenzied attacks.
[Intimidate: Requires a melee weapon to activate. When active, it allows you to block 100% of frontal attacks and deflect 100% of ranged spells, but you cannot attack. Duration: 5 seconds.]
At the same time, he hurriedly explained, "I really will take you to Blue Star. We humans need the bald eagles as allies. I summoned you now because the dragon clan is also sending an envoy to Blue Star, and they asked me to bring them. I thought your situation was very similar, so I summoned you."
As Old Li spoke, his long spear clanged as he deflected Dokeni's beak and talons, creating a rather comical scene.
Zhong Feng and Dragon Emperor Cadrigus finally understood what was happening.
Zhong Feng quickly intervened, "Bald eagle brother, please believe us, we really have no intention of making you food for the dragons!"
Hearing this, Dokeni's attacks on Old Li slowed down slightly.
King Dragon Cadregos also assured, "Don't worry, I won't eat you, and neither will my fellow dragons."
Hearing the King Dragon's promise, Dokeni's frenzied state eased considerably.
However, its feathers on its wings remained erect, and it stood in place, its chest heaving up and down.
Embarrassed, Old Li rubbed his nose and apologized with a sheepish smile, "I'm sorry, I truly didn't mean to cause such a misunderstanding. The Dragon Clan, like the White-Headed Eagles, is willing to trade with us humans of Blue Star..."
Old Li repeated his explanation, focusing on the "corpse of the former Red Dragon King" part, which did not involve the "blood curse."
Hearing Old Li, especially about the "discovery of the former Red Dragon King's corpse and dozens of dragon remains" in the Dragon Clan's research facility, Dokeni felt no sympathy for the dragons. Instead, a hint of satisfaction flashed through his mind. "They deserved it! They wouldn't even think of independence, preferring to be subordinate to the people of Liray, treated like livestock. Liray's fists finally made him understand the pain, didn't they?"
However, he didn't dare show his thoughts, fearing that the angry King Dragon might flatten him into a patty.
So he remained silent, expressionless, crouching in a corner.
The atmosphere felt a bit awkward for a moment.
"Ahem." Zhong Feng coughed lightly, breaking the awkward silence.
He turned to the King Dragon, "Your Majesty, has the Dragon Clan's special envoy been chosen yet?"
"I'm sorry, not yet, this really can't be determined," the King Dragon shook his head, "I'll call them over, and we'll finalize the selection."
The King Dragon released his mental energy, contacting White Dragon Princess Coco and Red Dragon Queen.
Over the past day, the topic of "which of the White Dragon Princess Coco and Red Dragon Queen is more suitable to be the Dragon Clan's envoy to Blue Star" had been a heated debate among the five Dragon Kings, with neither Coco nor the Red Dragon Queen willing to back down.
Coco was determined to go and was eager to go to Blue Star to see Su Yu, so she wouldn't miss this opportunity.
The Red Dragon Queen, driven by a desire for vengeance for her husband, was hesitant to let Coco go, fearing the "I'll be fine choice, I'll take care of her. Liray's fists finally made him understand the pain, didn't they?"
The argument continued, with the White Dragon Queen, Blue Dragon King, and King Dragon Cadregigo still in the room, the King Dragon's mental energy pulsading, "I won't let this chance pass, I'll make a decision," the King Dragon declared.
The White Dragon Princess, Blue Dragon King, and King Dragon Cadregigo were called over to the King Dragon's nest.
As soon as they arrived, the Red Dragon Queen's eyes were drawn to the cornered White-Headed Eagle, Dokeni.
"This ingredient looks quite good, a rich meal. Hmm... Sixth Tier, with the rich flavor of the White-Headed Eagle's blood, it's a hearty dish!" the Red Dragon Queen extended her claws, eager to inspect the freshness of the ingredients.
Dokeni's feathers stood erect once again, and he watched the Red Dragon Queen war eyes suspiciously, ready mind racing not to let her down, "Don't you dare, I won't let this chance, I'll make a decision," the King Dragon declared.
