The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 864 Dragon Emperor Horard

The dragon's gaze, spanning walls and space, met Richard's.

Even with a distance of tens of kilometers and numerous enchanted walls in between, the Dragon Overlord could sense the arrival of a powerful figure outside.

An avatar of a ruler.

Which ruler emerged from the endless dimensions? The dragon ruler wondered to himself.

However, regardless of the origin of this ruler, since he has come to his dragon's nest, he naturally has to greet him.

"Couto, Cole."

The dragon overlord let out a deep roar, and the next moment, two incredibly complex formations appeared before his throne.

This formation is different from the complex geometric patterns of wizards; it resembles an incredibly lush golden tree.

Two level-five dragons emerged from the array. One had crimson scales, while the other had azure scales. One had a single horn, while the other had two horns. They seemed to be two different subspecies.

However, their scales were covered with golden patterns—patterns identical to the tree patterns of the city.

"Teacher, what are your instructions?" the two dragons asked in unison.

"We have guests. Go and greet them."

The white dragon toyed with a lump of amorphous metal with ever-spreading golden patterns in its hand, and said somewhat casually.

"Guests?" A hint of doubt flashed across the faces of the two dragons.

At this time of year, all the emperors are fighting on the front lines; how could there be any guests coming?

The white dragon replied lazily, "An avatar of a sovereign who appeared out of nowhere. Don't be negligent. I'll finish this up and then move on."

The two dragons were taken aback upon hearing this.

A ruler who came from nowhere? That's quite a rare thing.

"Yes."

Outskirts of the city.

Richard held the most magnificent tower in the city center, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

He said to the law enforcement officers beside him, "Your mission is over. I didn't expect there to be a Sovereign's avatar stationed in this world. This has saved me a lot of trouble."

As they were speaking, two doors painted with gold patterns suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Two giant dragons, one red and one blue, flew out from the left and right respectively, and in an instant, their magnificent dragon might enveloped the entire sky.

Under the overwhelming power of the dragon, the law enforcement officers almost instantly convulsed and were about to fall to the ground.

Richard would not let them fall. Although these people were from the Spirit Desert Civilization, at this moment, they belonged to the same side as Richard.

With a thought, a pressure belonging to the Abyss Titan dissipated the dragon's might.

The two dragons sensed the oppressive aura emanating from Richard and immediately withdrew their dragon might—they had no intention of provoking Richard.

They flew up to Richard, and the red dragon said, "I am Cortot."

The blue dragon said, "I am Cole."

Then the two dragons said in unison, "Our master, Dragon Emperor Horard, invites you to the Dragon Nest for a chat."

Dragon Emperor Horad?
Upon hearing the name, the law enforcement officers around Richard immediately landed on the ground with astonishing speed.

Although the Lingmo civilization did not place great emphasis on hierarchy, the five emperors were not included in this category.

Cole, Coto is undoubtedly the messenger of the Dragon Emperor Horard, and the arrival of the messenger is equivalent to the Dragon Emperor's personal presence.

These giant dragons would never dare to spread their wings and fly in the sky before the Dragon Emperor.

Compared to the panic of the law enforcement officers, Richard remained remarkably composed.

He raised an eyebrow, and his smile widened.

Emperor Horad was one of the five emperors of the Spirit Desert Civilization, and also the eldest of the dragon emperors.

However, these things were unimportant to Richard. What mattered was that this emperor was a technological expert of the Lingmo civilization. Eighty percent of the Lingmo civilization's magical armor technology originated from him and his dragon descendants.

If he wants to exchange technical information, this Dragon Emperor is an absolutely indispensable figure.

“Then lead the way,” Richard said calmly.

Upon Richard's response, the two dragons unleashed golden patterns, resembling tree patterns, that spread from their claws into the void.

In the blink of an eye, a magnificent golden gate, even more imposing than the one they had arrived at, appeared before Richard.

"Please come in."

The two dragons roared simultaneously.

Then, the door opened, and a golden path leading to the unknown appeared before Richard.

Richard smiled and said, "That's really impressive."

He then strode through the gate.

The Golden Path leads directly into the tower. After passing through the Golden Path, Richard arrives at a place that resembles a reception room.

The reception room was resplendent in gold and jade; every inch of the wall that Richard saw was exquisitely beautiful.

Gold, silver, gems... these things that are treasured by ordinary people in the secular world are only fit to be used as the most basic building materials here.

“This gentleman lives a very simple life,” Richard remarked admiringly. Behind him, Cole and Cortot followed him into the drawing room. Upon hearing Richard's assessment, the blue dragon Cole replied, “My teacher is accustomed to simplicity; he always felt that using mithril and adamantite for a dwelling was too wasteful.”

Gold, silver, and jewels are precious to mortals, but to a ruler, they are no different from the dust on the street.

Even if the Dragon Emperor used adamantite and mithril to build this tower and used the finest elemental gems as decorations, it would still be nothing more than an ordinary residence, not even considered extravagant.

"May I ask your name, sir?" asked the red dragon, Koto.

"Wizard, just call me the Miracle Wizard."

Koto nodded and said respectfully, "My lord wizard, please wait here for a moment. My teacher's work is in the final stages and he is temporarily unable to attend to it."

"Finishing up?" Richard raised an eyebrow. "I really can't spare the time. Dragon alchemy is easy to start but hard to finish. It seems my timing for arriving wasn't very good."

As a wizard who had studied dragon alchemy, Richard was no stranger to it. Dragon alchemy is known for its ease of beginning but difficulty of ending; the more one progresses through the tree pattern, the less room there is for its application, so one must be extremely cautious.

"Oh? You also know about dragon alchemy, sir?"

Upon hearing Richard's assessment, the two dragons were slightly taken aback.

While dragon alchemy is not exclusive to the Spirit Desert civilization, it shouldn't have spread to other world communities.

Could it be that this person's civilization belongs to the same world group as theirs?
"I learned it when I was young, but I haven't used it for many years, and I've become rusty." Richard's voice carried a hint of regret.

As he spoke, Richard looked around the drawing room and said with a hint of admiration, "From a distance, it's not very clear. But up close, this tower is indeed meticulously crafted."

Upon hearing this, Cole said with a hint of pride, "This is our senior brother's work. In the entire Spirit Desert, only our teacher can surpass him."

“Oh? That’s quite impressive.” Richard said with a hint of surprise.

Although he could see that the tower had many problems, if it was the work of a world ruler, then it was indeed worthy of praise.

"It's just something barely passable."

With a deep dragon's roar, a golden door appeared out of thin air in the reception room. The door was pushed open, and a pure white dragon, seemingly carved from marble, slowly walked out, its dragon might filling the entire reception room like a tidal wave.

As Li looked at the giant dragon, the eight heads on its head clearly revealed its identity—Dragon Emperor Horard.

"How shall I address you?" the Dragon Emperor asked.

“Wizard, you may call me the Miracle Wizard.”

wizard?

Upon hearing this name, a hint of doubt suddenly flashed in the Dragon Emperor's eyes.

He felt like he'd heard that name somewhere before.

He searched through his distant memories and quickly found the word in an ancient meeting.

At that time, he was still a dragon king, the Lingmo civilization had not yet appeared, and they had not yet severed ties with their mother race in the Origin World.

He had heard this term during a conversation with the Dragon King of the Origin World.

"Recently, a wizard has emerged among the servants. They have made a preliminary grasp of the use of mental power and are much more useful than ordinary servants."

He could still sense the casualness in the Dragon King's tone in his memory.

But looking at the miracle wizard before him, the Dragon Emperor knew that his mother clan from his source world was definitely doomed.

The vertical pupils in the Dragon Emperor's eyes widened slightly, and the dragon's might in the air intensified accordingly.

In an instant, the might of a sovereign dragon surged toward Richard like a tidal wave.

"So you're a friend from the Origin World. I really didn't expect to see you at this time."

Origin World?
Upon hearing this term, Richard's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately realized that the Dragon Emperor was referring to the Wizarding World.

"The Wizarding World is actually the source world of dragons? That's something I've never heard of before," Richard thought to himself.

Faced with the overwhelming power of the dragon, Richard naturally could not stand idly by.

Without a doubt, this was a test from the Dragon Emperor, a test of his strength, and also a test of the wizard's strength.

Richard's mind raced, and in the next instant, the Titan's might, belonging to the Abyss Titan, clashed with the Dragon Emperor's might.

hum!
As the two powerful forces collided, ripples appeared in the air.

Under this oppressive force, Cole and Couto in the reception room almost instantly collapsed to the ground, their entire bodies trembling uncontrollably.

The pressure from a ruler-level being is something that two level-five world lords could not withstand.

Beside Richard, the Titan's might manifested as an invisible spherical domain, gradually expanding outwards. Although the domain expanded slowly, it was incredibly stable, like a slow-moving giant whose slow steps were unstoppable.

With this steady progress, the Titan's Might quickly occupied half of the room.

The Dragon Emperor sat up, his eight heads swaying slowly, his sixteen dragon eyes fixed on Richard, filled with shock and vigilance.

Richard's counterattack was swift and powerful, yet measured and composed.

Judging from this test alone, Richard's strength is unfathomable.

He had seen rulers of other civilizations before, but even those rulers who specialized in physical evolution did not possess bloodlines as powerful as his Dragon Emperor bloodline.

But Richard gave him a different feeling.

He could sense that Richard's bloodline was no less than his, and might even be stronger.
The Dragon Emperor cursed inwardly, "This is what wizards are? Back then, that bastard called these things servants? And he even dared to let them master the use of mental power?"
They deserved to be overthrown!
