Start getting stronger by modifying your breathing method

Chapter 477 Dragon [Part ]

far away.

The cold rain beat against the thatched roofs of the village and formed streams on the muddy paths.

Mist drifted out from the woods, turning the outline of the mill in the distance into a blurred gray shadow.

And next to this village.

There is a winding river.

Maybe it's because of the rain at this moment.

Bubbles kept rising from the water surface.

The fish at the bottom of the water floated to the surface one after another, swallowing and exhaling bubbles.

And beside the river.

There were a few shirtless young men catching fish with simple harpoons and fishing baskets.

A young boy of about sixteen or seventeen was standing by the river bank, his dark blond curly hair sticking wetly to his cheeks, and drops of water dripping from the ends of his hair slid over the tip of his nose and fell into the water.

What is most striking is his eyes.

It was a rare purple-gray color, like the clouds that accumulate before a rainstorm.

Different from other teenagers who use spears and fish baskets to catch fish.

He didn't have any fishing tools in his hands, just looking at the river in front of him.

He jumped straight into the water.

In just a few breaths, he easily captured two fat fish, each weighing more than three kilograms.

Then, he threw the prey accurately to the shore.

From the outside.

This boy is not much different from other boys.

But from the perspective of Hu Qi's Blade-Tempering Eye.

The other party's energy and blood are more than ten times that of an ordinary teenager next to him.

It's like a ferocious beast in human form.

This situation has even surpassed that of ordinary Sequence Nine professionals.

Moreover, although this boy's body looks similar to that of an ordinary person, there are certain differences.

And the reason for all this.

It’s all because of the rich dragon blood in the other party’s body.

in short.

To put it in nicer words.

This guy should be a half-blood, half-dragon.

To put it bluntly, it is a hybrid born from a human and a dragon.

This is also the reason why Hu Qi was surprised.

The size of a dragon is dozens or hundreds of times that of a human.

The two can actually ignore reproductive isolation and mate and reproduce.

Not to mention other things, just the fact that dragons are oviparous while humans are viviparous.

So how was this hybrid born?

To be honest, he was really curious about this.

Of course, Hu Qi didn't really take these to heart.

As a world with extraordinary powers.

This idea is totally unrealistic and makes no sense.

In front of the extraordinary, these problems are nothing.

Who knows whether the giant dragon can transform into a human form, or whether there is any other way.

He did not delve into this further.

At this time.

A strong wind blew.

The leaves sway.

The figure of Hu Qi standing on it had disappeared from the spot at some point.

....
Water splashes beside the stream.

"Will! Your ability to catch fish is amazing! How did you do it? Teach us!"

Several teenagers surrounded the blond boy, Will, while he was fishing.

They all gathered around.

Her eyes were fixed on the fish flapping in his hands, her face full of envy.

This was the umpteenth time they had witnessed Will's "fishing skills", but every time they watched it they found it incredible.

They knew only too well how cunning the fish in this river were.

It's not like no one has tried this approach.

But the result was either that the fish's tail splashed water all over your face, or that you choked and started coughing, and you couldn't even touch a single fish scale.

"Well, I can't really explain it. I just grabbed it casually."

Will smiled.

"Maybe. It's innate."

"Tch, cheapskate!"

The teenagers all started to make a noise in response to what Will said, obviously not believing it.

However, as a playmate who grew up with him, he also knew that Will was very agile, so he didn't take it too seriously.

In this regard.

Will just shrugged helplessly.

After all, this is indeed the truth.

For others, it may be difficult to enter a river and catch fish with bare hands.

But for him, catching fish is as easy as breathing.

But similar scenes have happened too many times and he is too lazy to explain them again.

Because this kind of thing didn't happen once or twice.

He discovered early on that he was different from the rest of his peers.

For example, things that are difficult for ordinary people to do are easy for him.

His strength and speed are far beyond that of normal people.

From childhood to adulthood, no matter how well protected other children are, they are bound to catch a cold and have a fever several times.

But he is different.

Even if you are shirtless in winter, you won't feel any cold.

Therefore, he didn't understand how just a little cold could make people sick.

He once asked his father why he was different from other children.

But for that.

His father didn't explain.

Just let him live his life like a normal person.

Don't be too special.

This is why he has always stayed in the village and has not left here to venture out into the world.

But young people tend to show off easily, and when they have acquired strength far beyond that of normal people, it is naturally impossible for them not to show it at all.

This is inevitable.

"Alas! I don't know when Dad will let me leave the village!"

Will sighed.

His dream is to become a knight.

Unfortunately, his father wouldn't let him leave.

This made him feel like a good cook cannot cook without rice.

"It's getting late. I'm going to go home first. I have to cook for my dad. You can divide the fish among yourself. You should go home early too."

Will looked at the sky.

Watching the rain getting heavier.

He waved to his companions and pointed to the few remaining fish on the ground.

then.

Amid the thanks from his companions, he turned around and left with the fish.

The rain gradually became heavier, and it felt cool on my face.

In order to get home faster, he turned into an alley.

——Click, click.

The footsteps echoed in the rainy alley.

Suddenly, Will's ears moved.

He heard another sound of footsteps besides his own.

I looked up reflexively.

What he saw was a blurry figure walking towards him in the rain.

Although the distance was not far, I couldn't see the other person's face clearly.

As the distance got closer, Will felt an inexplicable palpitation, as if his chest was being gripped by an invisible hand.

Just as they passed each other, the man suddenly looked up.

In the rain curtain, a pair of scarlet cross-shaped pupils pierced straight ahead, so cold that there was not a trace of warmth.

Will's consciousness became hazy at this moment.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

……

——Boom!
suddenly.

Above the sky.

A flash of silver-white lightning tore through the clouds like a sharp blade, and the thunder that followed made people's eardrums tremble.

In the rain, Will's stiff figure suddenly shuddered.

"Strange. Why am I standing here in a daze?"

He shook his wet blond hair and looked around, feeling a strange sense of disobedience.

It seems like I have forgotten something important.

But no matter how hard he tried to recall, he had no clue.

pat!pat!
At this moment
The two fish in his hands suddenly struggled violently, and their tails hit the falling rain, causing water to splash everywhere.

Seeing this, Will withdrew his thoughts.

"Forget it, if you can't remember it, forget it."

He wiped the rain off his face.

"Let's go back and cook for dad first. If we're late, we'll get beaten again."

Think of the consequences.

He shuddered and ran forward.

soon.

He returned to the front door of his house.

This is a low wooden house with various farm tools such as sickles, hoes, shovels, etc. hung densely on the rough log walls.

There was an unfinished plowshare lying on the anvil at the door, and rust mixed with coal ash had spread out dark red marks on the mud.

That’s right, this is the only blacksmith shop in the village and also his home.

It seemed like he heard some noise.

At this moment, a figure walked out of the house.

This is a man who is two meters tall, with muscular body and as strong as an iron tower.

The man had the same purple-gray eyes as the boy.

The only difference is.

The purple in the sturdy man's eyes was even purer.

"Dad!"

Will lowered his head and his voice unconsciously lowered a few notes.

Among his peers, Will is not considered thin, but when standing in front of his father, he looks like a little chicken.

The other person's two-meter-tall body was like an iron tower, and the shadow it cast almost covered him completely.

The veins on his sturdy arms were knotted, and the muscles built up from years of blacksmithing were as hard as iron. Just standing there made people breathless.

"Well, let's go cook."

The sturdy man's eyes lingered briefly on the two fish in Will's hand.

After saying that, he turned and walked into the house, the wooden door creaking dully behind him.

Will's tense shoulders finally relaxed.

He was prepared to be beaten.

After all, I came back later than usual today and got my clothes wet, but I didn’t expect my dad to not care.

Not long after, a large pot of steaming fish soup was brought to the table.

Green wild vegetables float on the milky white soup, and the fresh fragrance rises with the hot steam, which whets your appetite just by smelling it.

This pot of food is enough to feed four or five people, but for Will and his father, it is just an ordinary meal.

Everyone in the village said that the blacksmith's family had an appetite as big as a bottomless pit.

Will always uses the excuse that he is growing and that forging iron is tiring, but in reality...

They can eat, they just have big appetites.

Regarding this situation, Weir once wondered in his heart whether he was different from ordinary people and that was why he could eat so much.

"Well done this time."

At this moment, the sturdy man took a sip of the soup, smacked his lips, and uttered a rare compliment.

Will was stunned. He looked at his father suspiciously, then lowered his head and tasted the fish soup.

Fresh, sweet and rich, the tenderness of the fish and the fragrance of the wild vegetables explode on the tip of your tongue.

"Strange, the method is obviously the same as before..."

He frowned.

"Could it be that the fish is fresher, or is it that my cooking skills have improved?"

Think of this.

He raised his eyes quietly and stole a glance at his father who was sitting opposite him.

Dad seems to be in a good mood today
Will swallowed, his Adam's apple rolling up and down.

He opened his mouth, then closed it again, and finally mustered up the courage to ask softly.

"Um. Dad, can you tell me about my mother?"

The sturdy man glanced at him and seemed not to care.

"What is there to say? Didn't I tell you that she died giving birth to you?"

Veer heard the unhappy tone of his father.

But he couldn't help but continue asking.

"I know that. I just want to know more about my mother, like how you met her..."

Will's voice became quieter and quieter, until it was almost a whisper.

His memory of his mother was like a watercolor painting wet by rain, with only blurred blocks of color left.

But the greater the void, the greater the desire to fill it.

For a moment, the atmosphere fell into an eerie silence, with only the sound of rain outside and the occasional crackling of firewood in the stove inside the house.

The strong man looked unhappy.

Just when he was about to open his mouth to scold.

At this moment.

Will in front of him fell to one side without any warning.

Accompanied by a muffled 'bang' sound.

The back of his head hit the ground hard.

"Vill?!"

The sturdy man stood up suddenly, knocking the bench to the ground.

next moment.

He found that Will's skin was covered with a strange gray layer at a speed visible to the naked eye.

See this scene.

The sturdy man showed a rare look of shock and anger on his face.

"Is this the Dragon Falling Liquid?! Damn it, who is it!!"

His roar gradually turned into a low dragon's roar, and the sound waves caused the thatched roof to fall off.

At the same time, his purple pupils suddenly shrank into a thin line.

The burly body began to twist and swell, and the coarse cloth clothes were stretched open and turned into pieces on the ground.

The back was bulging high, and two shadows emerged from the shoulder blades.

They were actually two huge dragon wings, with sticky body fluids sticking to the wing membranes.

The wings flashed.

boom!
next second.

Looking from the outside.

The whole wooden house exploded.

A giant silver dragon as big as a mountain appeared at the spot.

His armor was as thick as cast steel, and his purple vertical pupils were burning with raging flames.

--Roar! ! !

The sound waves took it as the center and turned into a gray-white ripple visible to the naked eye.
The ground was undulating.

Wherever the raindrops passed, they vaporized instantly and houses collapsed like building blocks.

Whether it was humans or livestock, all of their flesh and blood exploded.

It turned into fine red fluff and mixed into the rain.

After waiting for a few moments, the noise disappeared.

Only torrential rains still washed over the flat ruins, and the water carried bones and wood chips into the ground.

The white steam exhaled from the silver dragon's mouth rolled in the cold rain.

It looked around, as if looking for something.

"Is this the dragon?"

At this time.

A voice suddenly pierced through the rain.

Hearing this, the dragon did not reply. Instead, it turned its neck, and a dazzling white light appeared in its throat as its teeth opened and closed.

The next second, the blazing dragon breath poured out like the Milky Way, creating a scorched crater with a diameter of ten meters at the source of the sound.

However, there was no one in the big pit.

At the same time.

There was movement from another place.

Look away.

A young man with red hair and red eyes, carrying a long sword on his back, appeared on a broken wooden stake in the distance.

The silver dragon opened its mouth and prepared to continue attacking.

But this time, the dragon's breath turned into pale smoke and dissipated before it left its mouth.

And, at the same time, it felt something strange in its hind legs.

Looking down, a layer of gray color was eroding the scales at a speed visible to the naked eye and spreading towards them.

See this scene.

The silver dragon's eyes were bloodshot.

A pair of huge eyes stared at the young man in the distance.

"Damn it, you despicable human! If you dare, fight me head-on, and I will tear you apart alive!"

For this kind of words.

Young people, that is, Hu Qi, are basically immune.

He looked at the dying silver dragon in front of him with interest.

For ordinary people of this era, dragons symbolize unrivaled power and deep-rooted fear.

Their existence is like a natural disaster, almost invincible and despairing.

However, in the eyes of professionals, these behemoths are nothing more than prey that requires some effort.

In order to hunt dragons more efficiently, professionals have exhausted their wisdom and developed various targeted dragon-slaying techniques.

The Dragon-Falling Liquid is arguably the most sinister and deadly potion among them.

This medicine is colorless and odorless, and the preparation method is not complicated. The recipe is one of the public mystical knowledge.

It is completely harmless to ordinary creatures, but is specifically designed to kill dragons and their bloodlines.

Once it enters the stomach, even the most powerful dragon will become stiff and lose all its fighting power, becoming a lamb to be slaughtered.

The silver dragon in front of him was very powerful.

Based on Hu Qi's judgment and comparison.

It is roughly equivalent to a professional sequence five.

If it's a head-on fight.

Even if he could kill him, he would have to pay a certain price.

It simply can't be that easy.

Soon, as time passes.

The giant silver dragon was frozen stiff, unable to move at all.

Seeing this, Hu Qi took a step forward without any delay and thrust his sword into the dragon's eye socket!
