Daily AFK life from a young dragon

Chapter 4 lv10: Small Water Ball Technique
Life in the Dragon's Nest is boring.

The two young dragons, Eddie and Sega, sleep most of the time, and only wake up occasionally because they are hungry and need to eat.

The three little dragons don't need to worry about this.

Although the Dragon Queen Sylvanas's sleep is not short each time, every time she wakes up and goes out hunting, she can hunt enough prey for three little dragons to grow at one time.

The prey are placed in the swamp inside the dragon's nest, which can greatly preserve their energy and nutrition during life.

Unlike Eddie and Sega, in addition to eating and sleeping, Leon would sharpen his mental strength by watching the auto-play slot every day.

In this boring daily life, the three little dragons grew in size and strength.

In the blink of an eye, three months passed.

Inside the dark and damp dragon's nest.

The black dragon hatchling, which was more than two meters long from head to tail, woke up from its slumber, stretched its body, and let out a comfortable dragon roar.

"Panel." Leon's mind moved, and the information recorded in the hang-up slot immediately flowed into his mind.

【Zero Ring Trick·Small Water Ball Trick】

[Level: Level 10]

Three months later, the original level one water ball technique was upgraded to level 10 in the idle slot. Every time the level was upgraded, corresponding theories and knowledge would flow into Leon's mind, as if it had been practiced thousands of times in some other dimension.

"After reaching level ten, you can no longer upgrade." Leon noticed the changes in the information on the panel. The experience value column behind the level had disappeared.

It seems that level ten may be the limit to which the idle slot can be upgraded.

It may also be the limit of the water ball trick. After all, the magic knowledge involved in the zero-ring trick is not very profound.

'Water Polo!'

Leon silently recited the dragon language spell in his heart, and in an instant, a delicate light blue water ball condensed and appeared in front of him.

The fist-sized water ball looked harmless, but——

The next moment, under Leon's control, the small water ball disappeared.

Almost instantly, a roar was heard from the solid rock cave wall more than ten meters away, accompanied by a large amount of rubble splashing.

What appeared in front of Leon was a nearly circular pit the size of a washbasin.

"Compared to the original level zero water ball technique, it is at least several times more powerful." Leon felt very satisfied as he looked at the destructive power of the spell.

Now, the zero-ring trick, Water Ball, which has been idle to level ten, may be comparable to the weakest first-ring offensive spell in power.

And it's not just a change in power, but also an increase in casting speed.

Although it's not instant yet, it's close, and can be used in less than a second.

In addition, what shocked Leon the most was that the mental power consumed by the current level ten water ball technique was the same as the mental power consumed when using the water ball technique at level zero!
The power has been increased several times, and the casting speed has been reduced from more than ten seconds at the beginning to less than one second now, and the mental power consumption remains unchanged.
The essence of the hang-up slot enhancement spell is actually structural optimization.

Just like graphite and diamond, although they are both composed of carbon, their hardness is very different.

The key to their strength difference lies in the optimized arrangement of their structural components.

"It's time to eat."

Coming back to his senses from his meditation, feeling his hungry stomach, Leon walked towards the swamp where the food was stored.

Soon, an elliptical swamp with a diameter of tens of meters appeared in Leon's sight.

Leon also noticed that at the edge of the swamp, his second brother Eddie and his third brother Sega, two little dragons, were tearing into the corpse of a bull that had just been dragged out of the swamp mud.

This is also the most prey the three little dragons have ever eaten since they were born.

Leon guessed that there should be a herd of wild cattle near the dragon's nest, and the number should be quite large, at least in the three digits.

This herd of wild cattle should have been "raised" by their mother as a fixed prey. "The wild cattle are second-level beasts. Now I just need to be careful and I should be able to hunt them." Leon thought to himself.

According to its rank, the newly born black dragon hatchling is just a first-level magical creature.

Even though he has grown for half a year, he is still at the first level.

In a head-on fight, Leon would definitely not be able to defeat this giant with thick skin and flesh, a body length of three or four meters, a weight of several tons, and a strength enough to shake a tank.

But don’t forget the tenth-level water ball technique that Leon mastered.

The number of levels of a spell is in contrast to its rank. A zero-level cantrip corresponds to no rank, which is roughly equivalent to an ordinary human or a beast that is not nourished by the elements.

A first-level spell corresponds to a first-level creature.

The second ring corresponds to the second level and by analogy, the ninth ring spell corresponds to the ninth level creature.

The small water ball spell that Leon released now barely reached the threshold of a first-level offensive spell in terms of power, and was fully capable of causing considerable damage to first-level creatures.

If the attack hits a weak spot or the attribute is restrained, it is normal to kill instantly.

Although the second-level bull has thick skin and flesh, it will definitely be injured when facing an attack of this level.

And with Leon's current mental strength, he can send out eight or nine small water balls in a short period of time.

After weighing his current combat power, Leon walked towards the two little dragons happily.

Eddie and Sega had already noticed their big brother from afar. They stopped tearing at the bull's corpse and retreated silently.

Leon walked closer and started eating without any hesitation.

Dragons have their own rules.

Since you are the boss, you should naturally enjoy privileges.

If Leon refuses this privilege and advocates egalitarianism, the two little dragons might think he is no good, and then the fight between the weak and the strong will start again.

Leon was enjoying the meat, while Eddie and Sega could only watch with their saliva all over the floor.

Although there is still food in the swamp, once the intact prey carcass is destroyed, the energy and nutrients in it will quickly dissipate.

Each time the Dragon Mother sleeps, it can last for ten days, half a month, or even longer.

Therefore, in order to avoid starvation, the three little dragons planned to eat one prey together.

After eating one, eat the next.

After swallowing about a hundred kilograms of flesh and blood, Leon stopped when he felt full.

It looked at the two little dragons that seemed to be ready to make a move.

Eddie's size is similar to Leon's. After all, the two dragons were born only seven days apart.

But Sega on the side attracted quite a lot of attention.

The body is nearly three meters long, with muscles faintly visible under the dragon scales.
Overall, it is a size larger than Leon and Eddie.

It seems that Saiga is their big brother.
But the larger Sega stood obediently beside Eddie at this moment, not daring to disturb Leon's enjoyment of eating.

Obviously, although Sega is bigger, Leon is stronger in terms of hard power.

More than 20 days ago, due to the swell brought by his size advantage, Sega challenged Leon again, but was undoubtedly easily defeated by Leon who had mastered the seventh-level water polo technique at that time.

After a seventh-level water ball spell, Sega's dragon claw was broken, and the tough and spell-resistant dragon scales were also shattered in large pieces, exposing the flesh and blood.

If it weren't for the dragon's strong recovery ability, Sega would probably have become disabled, and would not look unharmed like it does now. If you look closely, you can see that the injured dragon claw and scales are still a little tender because they were just grown out not long ago.
