A few pale blue subtitles flashed before Thor's eyes, but he had no time to pay attention to them—two enraged young dragons were already roaring sharply and charging menacingly toward him.
Faced with this situation, he showed no fear. With a sudden push off the ground with his short limbs, he took the initiative to meet the attack.
Although newly hatched dragons carry the legacy of dragons, the complex information they possess still needs a long time to be released.
In addition, his breathing organs were not yet fully developed and his magic was very weak, so the fight at this moment was no different from that of wild beasts.
At this point, the advantage of Saul being born almost an hour earlier became apparent.
Moreover, he had already consumed enough eggshells, which had fully activated his muscles and caused his scales and claws to begin to harden.
In summary, it means greater strength, stronger defense, and sharper claws.
The three red dragon cubs rolled and wrestled together like provoked wildcats.
At first, the other two were able to work together to deal with Thor, but their personality flaws quickly turned the fight completely wrong—once they got into a fight, they didn't care whether they would accidentally hurt their companions.
Tiny red scales mixed with blood splattered everywhere, raising clouds of dust that soon covered the three fledgling dragons in a layer of grime.
Fortunately, their claws and teeth were not fully developed, and coupled with the natural resilience of dragons, they were not in any immediate danger of losing their lives, despite the fierce fighting.
Chiriel, who had left the nest earlier, had somehow crawled back.
It stared at the three cubs fighting, its pupils, as red as burning charcoal, suddenly contracted, and it let out a low roar.
The rolling sound waves swept across like a whirlwind, causing the three fledgling dragons to stiffen abruptly.
Intuition screamed: if we don't stop now, danger will strike immediately.
Red dragons don't value family ties, or rather, most of the five-colored dragons have little to no family affection.
Chiliel didn't care about the fighting between the cubs at all; even if one or two died, it wouldn't matter. But she absolutely couldn't tolerate these little guys making noise in front of her and disturbing her rest.
…………
Thor glanced at his younger siblings who were standing there dumbfounded, then rolled away and darted out, grabbing the largest piece of eggshell from the ground and hiding in the shadows of a corner of the cave.
The other two baby dragons realized what was happening and their anger reignited, but under the watchful eye of their mother, neither dared to make a move.
They exchanged wary glances and began to quickly gnaw on the remaining eggshells on the ground.
Even without Thor, they are still competitors. Since they can't fight each other right now, they can only try their best to eat faster and more than the other.
Only after all the eggshell fragments on the ground had been eaten clean, and even the dust covered with eggshell crumbs had been licked away, did the two baby dragons each find a corner, curl up, and crawl inside.
The true dragon possesses a super-powerful digestive and absorption system. The eggshell fragments were quickly transformed into abundant energy and nutrients, constantly stimulating the body's development and gradually leading the three red dragon cubs into a deep sleep.
In their sleep, a flood of information begins to emerge. The unique heritage of the true dragons will, in this process, allow them to develop a basic understanding of the world, master various common languages, and learn about different common races…
…………
Thor felt like he was having a dream, in which he was still human.
That day, during a break from work, he skillfully opened his phone to slack off, and soon a post about beast fighting caught his eye.
The post discusses which is stronger: the dragons in D&D and the dragons in Monster Hunter World.
The comments below numbered in the hundreds, with netizens arguing endlessly.
As a seasoned "keyboard warrior," he naturally had to offer his insights.
"D&D has a higher skill ceiling, while Monster Hunter has a higher average skill level, so it has to be considered comprehensively..."
The dream abruptly ended there, then vanished into nothingness, a white light.
…………
The three sleeping baby dragons gradually swelled up.
Their wings, which were originally soft and floppy, began to develop and stand upright; the color of their scales deepened, and two small bulges appeared on their heads.
The once bright scales gradually became covered with a gray shadow, and they fell off one by one from the top of the head, revealing the tougher new scales underneath.
Normally, the nutrients and energy contained in a single dragon eggshell are just enough to meet their needs during their first slumber.
Because Thor had eaten too much earlier, he was growing very fast and his physique had become much stronger.
His two siblings were not so lucky. They did not get enough nutrition. Although they did not starve to death in their sleep, some of their less important organs could not fully develop. As a result, their bones grew, but their muscles could not keep up. They became so thin that they looked like skin and bones and were almost unrecognizable.
…………
This slumber did not last long; about 15 days later, Thor awoke.
But he didn't open his eyes immediately. A blue light screen appeared in his dark vision, with some simple information marked on it.
Name: Saul Heliozog Essermog...
Race: Red Dragon
Age group: Hatchlings
Challenge Level: 3
Talent Template: None
At the bottom of the light screen is a huge rotating disc with a seven-layer nested structure. Each layer is divided into different small squares by lines, and the number of small squares increases as you go outwards.
Below the turntable are the words "Spiritual Essence," with a quantity of 0.17 listed after it.
When Thor focused his attention, he was surprised to find that as long as he invested his mental energy essence, he could use this giant spinning wheel to draw a prize.
The outermost layer of countless tiny grids represents various miscellaneous items in the Monster Hunter world, including but not limited to wild fruits, ores, dirt, and materials dropped by monsters... Each draw requires a point of Spirit Essence.
The number of small squares decreases significantly in the inner layer, corresponding to various weak environmental creatures, and each draw requires ten points.
Further in, the order is: low-level ecological niche, medium-level ecological niche, high-level ecological niche, ancient dragon, and taboo. The amount of spiritual essence required to extract each time also increases tenfold.
…………
"Where did this thing come from? Never mind, as long as it works. Just 100 million units of spiritual essence can make it a forbidden power comparable to a god. It really makes Long's heart surge with excitement."
But where can one obtain this essence of spiritual power?
Thor's intuition told him that things were probably not that simple.
As his attention shifted downwards and landed on the "Mental Essence" section, sure enough, a detailed introduction appeared.
Every living being possesses spiritual power. The higher one's intelligence and strength, the stronger one's spiritual power becomes, and strong emotions are the outward manifestation of this power.
As long as a living being harbors strong emotions toward Thor, whether it be anger, hatred, love, or worship, he can obtain spiritual essence.
Isn't this the same tactic used by gods to absorb faith?
Thinking of this, Thor opened his eyes, and two gaunt and ferocious dragon faces instantly entered his field of vision.
"Calp! Sistana! What are you two up to, sneaking around like that?!"
