The Defeated Dragon Chapter 168

Chapter 168 – Evil Scientist

"Sir, Blessedcurls is gone."

“I know. “

“You must be in a very bad mood.”

“Of course, these damn magical beasts. Next time we see it, it'll already have been turned to stew.” Liszt complained, “I gave it food and water,  keep it free, and took care of it for so long, and it still did not end well, and now it flew away!” Beasts or magical beasts, there really is no difference. 

“Woooof! Woooof! ” Tremblingwoods protested in the kennel where it was kept.

After Liszt vented out his dissatisfaction with Blessedcurls, he turned around but there was no anger in his face, “Mr. Carter, have the Thorn Merchants bought a mother wolf dog back?”

"According to Shylock, they will have to contact the Flower Caravan. They haven't found a female wolf that matches Tremblingwoods'…… size. " Carter was choosing his words carefully.

"This must be done as soon as possible. Tremblingwoods has been eyeing those horses in the racetrack recently. I don't like the way he is looking at them."

"Well.."

Liszt pulled back Tremblingwood's leash. 

He has been training the magical beast harder, "Tremblingwoods, iron thorns!"

Whooosh!

A thick rock pierced the ground.

"Tremblingwoods, more iron thorns!"

Whooosh! Whooosh! Whooosh! Whooooosh!

A large group of spiked rocks pierced the surface.

"It releases magic very well. Tremblingwoods is a great magical beast, Baron Liszt. It must be a  mid-level magical beast. "Elkson, who had woken up from a nap, came over from a distance. He was looking at Tremblingwoods with his eyes shining, “What a big, beautiful fellow.  'King of Thorns Ridge' is not enough to describe it. “

It was evident that Elkson knew that Tremblingwoods has magic in its blood.

Liszt touched the beast's big head,”Among the mid-level magical beasts , he is classified under the weak category, especially since it can only release rock thorns. Multiple rock thorns are hardly the new magic, but after all, it is just an overlay of rock thorns, and the essence has not changed. “

Tremblingwoods turned his head, put his tongue out and licked Liszt's hand.

Liszt's hands were suddenly full of drool.

A servant quickly drew out a handkerchief and handed it to Liszt.

"It just haven't grown up yet." Elkson laughed. "It still needs a lot of understanding about magic. Even mages like us need a long time to master a certain type of magic, let alone a magical beast. As it grows older, it will learn the power of its blood and will be able to control its magic."

“I wish it would.” “Liszt understood perfectly, ” At least now, on Coral Island, there is no natural enemy. In the future, I will train it to adapt to the battlefield and help me win battles and glory. “

“You , like the Earl, will also achieve countless remarkable glory. “

Liszt smiled, “I think so too. “

For Liszt, this was not bragging.

It's just self-confidence.

Nobles have always had confidence and thirst for glory, while humility can only be considered as traits of the timid or unmotivated. Regardless of what Liszt thinks in private, on the surface he must pretend to be ready to go to the battlefield at any time and build his career. Only this way will his subordinates follow him.

Life is a drama. It's all about the acting.

As an adult with experience , combined with the aristocratic education of his predecessor, there is no doubt that he is proficient in acting.

He asked, “Mr. Elkson, how is the production of the Flame Mushroom potion?

“Reagents are being deployed, I believe that we will enter the production phase very soon. The Flame Mushroom is a good potion, it won't be difficult to extract."

“Then produce it as soon as possible.” 

Recently, Liszt has fully integrated into his elite earth knight level and he has also tried to practice magic without magic potions. However, he was no different than ordinary people, he was still constrained by his body's qi, he was still unable to increase the amount of qi in his body by himself.

Elite earth knights, who usually can't afford magic potions, will instead begin to hone their fighting skills.

One can still improve their strength by constantly practicing fighting skills, and then by carefully crafting the fighting spirit cheats, the strength gradually increases.

An elite earth knight can easily defeat seven to eight ordinary earth knights with ease.

As a rich aristocrat, Liszt was not in a hurry to master his fighting skills. He has already mastered two combat techniques, “Fire Dragon Drill” and “Fire Surge Wave”, partly mastered “Multiple Arrows”, and lastly, “Magic Eye” was something he has done with great success.

With the Firedragon and Blackdragon by his side, his strength far exceeds Marcus'. Among the elite earth knights, he is definitely the number one figure.

If you count Tremblingwoods in, he might already be in the same level as the Count.

“Could I really……Yes……I'm sure! ” He has never seen the Sky Knight go all out, nor the Sky Rider go all out in a battle, so he can only make an estimate.

After all, a lower-level magical beast is relatively strong and is said to have been able to work with the Sky Knight before.

Tremblingwoods was already a mid-level magical beast capable of the Multiple Thorns Magic, 

surely he could hurt the Count in a battle. Liszt could just cheer in the sides, and it would be over in just a round or two.

Town development was on track.

There was no need for Liszt to deliberately do anything.

So he spent most of his time looking for things to do by himself. A 16-year-old young body with so much energy, for him, he was either very bored with exercising and wasting his energy, or he could find something for himself.

He decided to check on the black pearls.

In his new house, Mr. Glanny was seen eating in his studio with Charlie, the apprentice.

At this point, Liszt must admit that Glanny was more dedicated than Elkson, "Both were mages, but had highly contradicting temperaments, arrogant and paranoid, and the other, funny and humorous. Mr. Elkson was better at socializing, and Mr. Glanny was focused on his job. Another thing, it looks like Glanny seems to be more knowledgeable?”

If Liszt was a typical young lord, he would think that Elkson's witty humor is far more amusing than Granny's dull personality. Liszt still appreciates Elkson's demeanor. However, in terms of rational analysis – Elkson was empty in every way except for the way he tamed the eagles.

In fact, his expertise was mediocre compared to Glanny's.

“Sir Baron, the teacher is busy. He asked to not be disturbed.” Charlie,Glanny's apprentice said carefully, out of fear that he would anger Liszt.

Rearranging his thoughts, Liszt said, “I'm just going in and visiting, and I'm not going to disturb your teacher, take me in.” 

“Well…..Okay, but please Sir, keep your voice down. The teacher needs silence to work, and he hates being disturbed. I've been scolded a lot.”

They went inside studio.

The light of the crystal lamp lit the table – Mr. Glanny had his own crystal lamp shaped like a nightstand lamp, and the idea was indeed brilliant.

The table was littered with materials and tools.

There were also ovens, with large and small pots and basins, filled with different colors. However, the strange mixture of flavor and smell inside the room could make someone feel uncomfortable.

Glanny was at the table, with a small knife, and constantly carving a character on the basketball-sized black pearl. His hair was brown and messy like feathers on a chicken coop . His cloak was dyed into camouflage, and he had this whole evil scientist vibe on him.

Full commitment.

There was no time to talk to Liszt.
