Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 321: Ancestral Silver Dragon? Ice Queen

"Noah, do you want to take a break?"

Annabelle, the silver dragon, has recovered and is able to move freely. She looks at the golden dragon coiled around an ice crystal in front of her with a little distress.

"Am I not resting now?"

Noah raised his head slightly, looked at the silver dragon partner in front of him, and asked in a calm tone.

Ever since he learned eight years ago that the silver dragon Annabell was pregnant, Noah has never left the silver dragon's side, or rather, he has directly brought the silver dragon with him.

Without his power to protect her, the silver dragon could not resist the increasingly strong coldness in her belly. If she moved too far away from Noah, she would be wrapped in heavy ice. Not to mention moving, even her life would be threatened.

Only under the domain of the ancestral golden dragon could the silver dragon maintain normal vital signs and continue to breed dragon eggs. This lasted for eight years, a total of thirteen years, before Annabell successfully laid dragon eggs.

The moment the dragon egg was separated from its mother's body, the cold air it exuded broke through the field formed by the natural power dissipated from Noah's dragon body, and set off an ice and snow storm that should not have appeared in Noah's bedroom, sweeping across the Orpheus Mountains, and bringing an extremely rare snowfall to the city of Elisim on the edge of the mountains.

Fortunately, the snowfall lasted for a very short time. Although the drifting snow that fell in the morning accumulated to the thickness of a palm within just one magic hour, when the sun rose at noon, the ice and snow melted quickly, and no cold wave was formed, let alone an ice disaster.

This was mainly because the source of the ice and snow was isolated and suppressed in time by the Holy Dragon Overlord who reacted quickly. Otherwise, if this force was allowed to continue to disseminate, it would probably cause an extremely horrific ice and snow disaster.

Now, the source of this snowstorm has turned into a small hill of ice crystals coiled by a golden dragon, and at the core of this iceberg is a platinum dragon egg covered with ice-blue veins.

With the power Noah now possesses, it is not that he cannot melt this ice mountain, but there is no need. This is his offspring, not his enemy. The gestation and hatching of this dragon egg requires a suitable environment.

Powerful creatures, even in an unconscious state, will use their own power to transform the surrounding environment into the most suitable ecology for themselves.

However, for a powerful creature to be able to do this, even if it has a strong racial bloodline, it must at least wait until adulthood. It is not impossible for a creature to be able to transform the environment before birth and even affect the mother's life, but Noah did not expect that it would be his own offspring.

Logically speaking, his offspring should not have such powerful strength. After all, the mother of his two previous offspring, the eldest son Eliade, was a legendary Seraph, and the mother of the second son Telramus was also a golden dragon. In terms of strength and bloodline, Annabell could not compare to her, but the offspring she gave birth to was the strongest.

Even though the child has not been born yet, Noah can judge that this will be a dragon that is far stronger than her brothers. Even if her two brothers were born earlier than her, they will not be able to establish any time advantage.

This is extremely abnormal and even more unreasonable, but her birth was an impossibility among many tiny probabilities.

However, the most unreasonable and incredible thing is that after Annabelle, her mother, successfully laid a dragon egg, her bloodline showed signs of mutation similar to atavism due to the influence of the dragon egg.

The dragon in front of us that cares for Noah has a shape that is very different from the traditional image of a silver dragon. Compared to the silver dragon, which is already known for its elegance and nobility, her dragon-like posture appears more slender and graceful, with her neck, limbs and tail becoming more slender and her lines smoother.

The bright silver scales of an adult silver dragon are covered with a layer of dreamy ice-blue, giving off a faint metallic luster, and the entire body exudes an ice-crystal texture, as if it were carved out of ice and snow.

What Noah found most interesting was that his silver dragon partner had actually acquired a spell-like ability that was similar to a bloodline talent. In a moment, she could condense a suit of ice armor on her body, completely covering her head, front legs, hind legs, wings, tail and other parts.

These ice armors can not only provide considerable protection, but also greatly enhance the ice spells cast by Annabelle, and can even assist Annabelle in establishing an ice field.

It has always been the case that parents give their children blood and talents. Noah has never found any case in his ancestral heritage where the birth of a child awakens a more powerful bloodline for the parents. This is simply the opposite of the law of nature and has never been heard of.

Because of this, Noah was extremely concerned about his third offspring and held the egg himself. He wanted to see who his third offspring was and whether he was born naturally or some old man was bored and reincarnated to make fun of him.

"Noah, you're too tired!"

Although the partner in front of her spoke in a very relaxed tone, Annabell, who had already completed one evolution, could feel how meticulous Noah's operation was.

While protecting his own territory, the Holy Dragon Overlord did not excessively suppress the growth of the dragon eggs. He used his dragon body as the boundary. The outside was a natural world full of flowers, while the inside was a silent wasteland filled with extreme cold.

If it were to be destroyed with absolute violence, with the power of the ancestral golden dragon, it would naturally be able to sweep away everything, even the source of a snowstorm that could sweep across thousands of miles.

But the source of this disaster happened to be the descendants of the ancestor dragon himself. Therefore, not only could Noah not use violence, he also had to carefully protect and maintain a balance, which was much more difficult than destroying a piece of land.

"It's nothing, and it won't be a problem. Once she hatches, everything will be fine."

Noah didn't think there was anything wrong with balancing the internal and external forces, he just had to get used to it. Although his real body could hardly leave the bedroom in order to incubate the eggs, this did not prevent his will from descending at will anywhere in the territory.

The order in the Holy Dragon Land is still functioning normally. Even the newly promulgated compulsory education system and literacy campaign are proceeding in an orderly manner.

Even the Dragon Academy, for which Noah had only selected a location and drawn up blueprints, had already entered the completion stage and was ready to start school.

It was obvious that Noah was unable to teach the dragonlings now, and he was not prepared to reveal his Word Spirit, the Emperor, in front of his retainers, servants, and followers.

Although some gods have already known about the power he possesses, it is obvious that these immortal beings are not prepared to expose this matter. They do not like worldly creatures to set foot in the realm owned by them at will.

The time it takes to incubate an egg is so long that even Noah, the ancestor dragon, finds it a little outrageous, because he has been waiting for fifteen years.

In the year when Noah turned 198, the huge glacier that had been imprisoned by the golden dragon and had been piling up and getting higher for fifteen years finally showed a different change: it was melting.

To be more precise, a black hole appeared inside the glacier, which swallowed up cold air almost infinitely. Under the influence of this black hole, the icebergs that had piled up to the top of Noah's bedroom melted quickly, and then its essence was revealed, which was a platinum dragon egg covered with ice-blue veins.

Crack~ Under the gaze of the golden dragon's eyes, the dragon egg, which took twenty-eight years from gestation to hatching, cracked into a clearly visible crack. Then, a petite and cute figure that looked sleepy fell from the crack of the dragon egg.

"..."

The giant dragon egg, which stood more than three meters and nearly four meters high, was not completely broken. There was only a huge crack at the bottom that spread towards the top, and the delicate figure fell from the crack. When she fell out of the dragon egg, only an empty shell was left.

Judging from the appearance alone, the one who fell out of the dragon egg was a human baby girl of about two or three years old, with ice-blue eyes and long bright silver hair, like an elf in the ice and snow... the queen!
Noah looked at the ice crystals spreading under his little daughter's palm and couldn't help but sigh, because he could probably foresee his daughter's future.

"your name!"

Noah stretched out his dragon claws towards the human baby girl who was so petite that she seemed to need to be carefully cared for. When she climbed onto the palm of the dragon claws, he lowered his head slightly and asked softly.

"Scatilo Noa Helios La Mondon."

The baby girl, who didn't seem to have any dragon characteristics, spoke in an extremely ancient dragon language and revealed her real name.

This is a dragon with extremely pure blood. Judging from the way it was born, there is no silver dragon with purer blood than her. Because dragons like to mingle in human civilization, they have engraved the transformation spell into their racial blood.

Therefore, a silver dragon with extremely excellent talents will be in human form rather than dragon form when it hatches from its shell. For some ignorant people, this may cause them to doubt life and question the world.

However, for those who are familiar with this matter, especially the parents of silver dragons, they will cheer and celebrate when they see their offspring being born in humanoid form.

"Show daddy your true self."

Noah's tone was extremely gentle. This young dragon, who was almost two hundred years old, controlled his speaking speed so as not to scare his little daughter.

Because after careful identification, he did not find anything abnormal in the little daughter. Scatillo's dragon soul and dragon body were perfectly combined, without any signs of theft or reincarnation.

That kind of aura, like the young buds of early spring, with its vigorous vitality and tenderness, is difficult to imitate. Noah believes in his own eyes. The reincarnation of an ordinary god will never escape his sight. If it is the reincarnation of a main god-level being, then Noah will accept it. He does not mind having an extra daughter of the main god.

"Okay, Dad!"

Under Noah's gentle tone, Scartilo somewhat shyly released her innate talent for transformation, revealing her true form as a dragon.

It was a dragon cub that was like all other dragon cubs, with a big head and a small body, and its body proportions were not perfect. But unlike most dragon cubs, even though it was small and its body proportions were not perfect, it still possessed an otherworldly beauty.

The tender and thin ice-crystal scales, slender limbs and body emit a faint silver light. Compared with its body, a pair of extremely broad but relatively thin dragon wings are stretched out, showing a translucent blue-white color, as if they were made of ice edges. The slender dragon tail appears extremely flexible, and at its end, it emits a ray of extremely deadly cold light.

Noah did not take too long to admire such a unique and beautiful dragon body that was completely different from all other silver dragons. In just a moment, Noah saw thin ice crystals condensing on his little daughter's body, gathering into an ice crystal armor that completely wrapped her.

This is the same change as her mother, but more perfect. The biggest difference is that Annabelle's talent still needs her to control it with her consciousness, while Skadilo's ice armor is her instinct. She didn't do anything deliberately, and this armor with many special amplification effects appeared on her.

"Return to ancestral bloodline!"

Noah, who witnessed this change with his own eyes, immediately concluded that this was not some special mutation, but a kind of atavism, and one that was infinitely close to the ancestors.

If it weren't for an intuition telling Noah that his daughter was still missing something extremely crucial, Noah would have directly determined that Skatilo was the true ancestral dragon.

"Dad, can I change back?"

As Noah pondered, Scardino asked in a shy and timid whisper that she preferred to move around in humanoid form rather than dragon form.

"Well, okay."

Noah would naturally not refuse such a lovely daughter. Although he did not quite agree that a dignified dragon clan did not like to maintain its original form, but instead liked to transform into a more fragile humanoid form, but since it was his own daughter, what else could he do? Of course he spoiled her.

"Are you feeling hungry?"

Noah woke up from his thoughts and looked at his daughter in the dragon's claws. He realized that he had not fed her any food, but his little daughter did not ask him for anything. She just sat in his palm and looked at the dragon scale patterns on his body.

"Not very hungry!"

Hearing Noah's question, Scatillo thought for a moment and then answered timidly.

"That means I'm hungry."

Noah nodded slightly, understanding the meaning of his little daughter's words.

Although he didn't know the reason, he could feel that his little daughter seemed to have an innate sense of awe towards him, so she spoke and moved timidly, looking extremely timid and shy.

"I'll take you to eat something delicious."

Noah took his little daughter and went straight to his treasure house. How could he feed a dragon with ordinary food for its first meal? With the talent his daughter showed now, he had to feed her at least a jewel with ice and snow attributes.
