Under the Red Dragon.

Chapter 203 Absolute Zero
The grand castle hall returned to silence, just like no matter how gorgeous a ball is, it will eventually come to an end. No matter how lively a dinner party is, it will eventually end.

The dragons dispersed and returned to their nests, and the ministers dispersed and returned to their homes.

Even the busy maids disappeared. In the huge castle, only Kalon sat alone on the throne, lost in thought.

Everyone is lonely most of the time in their long life, and Caron has long been accustomed to this state.

It was not only a habit of being a dragon, but also the long years he had spent alone in the desolate spiritual world had already honed Charon's heart and will to be stronger than his steel-forged body.

He enjoys the hustle and bustle, and also enjoys the freedom of solitude.

This kind of solitary freedom is a rare time to relax and think for the monarch who is now responsible for the entire Dragon Empire.

However, Caron did not put too much energy into thinking about how to deal with the future direction and development of the empire. For Caron, the road is walked, not thought out.

He will lead his empire forward until it reaches the highest peak, or is shattered to pieces.

Red Dragon was just thinking about his own talent. The remaining information of this new talent was still covered by fog, but he could feel the horror of the new talent.

This is a talent that comes from mental energy and blood, and absorbs the spiritual authority - gluttony, as well as the integrated influence of Kalon's personal mind, will and behavior. To some extent, it represents the embodiment of Kalon's nature.

The essential power and source of all living things and existence are regarded by Kalon as the nutrients and resources for his growth. His talent allows him to devour any target he chooses.

Then, under the analysis of the innate power, absorb and digest the opponent's certain root power to supplement oneself and allow oneself to grow.

The blood or source of power that exists in some creatures is the actual manifestation and derivative of some laws that are interwoven into the entire world.

This also means that through this method, Caron can come into contact with the laws of the real world more directly, easily and with less effort.

Although the target's strength and life level affect the speed of analyzing and digesting Karon's own talent, this is undoubtedly an extremely terrifying talent.

His talent is fundamentally consistent with the expected functions of the sub-brain nodes he once created and strengthened. He himself is also constantly learning and understanding the world, and gradually coming into contact with the basic laws represented by the world's true appearance.

If combined with each other, Caron's own growth rate will accumulate to a terrifying degree.

Unfortunately, the sub-brain nodes that were created with the goal of deconstructing and analyzing the laws that represent the world's true appearance are now far from being as powerful as Charon had expected.

Although the functions of the paracerebral segment group are powerful enough in the eyes of most creatures, there is still a long way to go before they can analyze and understand the laws buried deep beneath the real world.

After all, the sub-brain node group was created by Charon through mental energy enhancement, from scratch, and there was no precise template for Charon to learn from.

"Perhaps, I should capture a powerful life form, a life form with the fundamental ability of calculation, deduction and analysis, to provide my secondary brain with learning, imitation and evolution."

Kallon's iron claws unconsciously struck the armrests of the throne, which were as solid as fine steel, making a sound of steel and iron knocking in the spacious and quiet hall.

"Or, capture an electronic life, a digital data life, or even an electronic god. Even a quantum computer cannot meet my requirements."

Amid the heavy knocks, Karon's eyes penetrated the hall of the castle and looked at the misty night sky outside the castle.

The bright twinkling stars in the night sky are worlds. Among those countless worlds and countless planes, they will become the hunting grounds of this ancestral red dragon. Those countless planes will also become the nutrients for Charon's growth.

Kalon's ambition is growing in direct proportion to his strength.

Because even the entire world of Ekania is not enough to provide him with the nutrients and resources he needs to grow.

"Only by establishing a relatively objective observation model of the real world and fully understanding the knowledge of the world can we better construct our own unique understanding of the reality of the world and build a more complete world cognition system, which means being more powerful!"

The gaze cast by Caron's dark golden pupils was deep and firm.

He is now preparing to step into the door of true legend.

Given Karon's current situation, even if this red dragon were to lie in its lair, sleeping soundly and doing nothing.

After reaching adolescence, he can naturally cross the hurdle that countless creatures need to look up to, enter the realm of legend, and achieve a leap in the level of life.

But some legends, to become legends, have consumed countless resources and potential to reach this realm. For them, this is their destination and the greatest manifestation of their abilities.

Some legends are called legends because the road they take is called the Road of Legend. Becoming a legend is just the starting point for these creatures, their extremely solid foundation, the starting point for them to take root, sprout, and thrive.

There are extremely obvious individual differences between any same levels.

Sometimes, the gap between legends is greater than the gap between humans and dogs.

And Kalon, the ambitious ancestor red dragon, wants to be that person and treats other legends as dogs. In Kalon's eyes, the word "other" means everything.

After surviving his slumber and gaining this new talent, Caron has undoubtedly become closer to this point.

The red dragon's dark golden vertical pupils quietly ignited a cluster of leaping flames. His extreme perception has now condensed into a spontaneous instinct in the red dragon's body - real vision.

In the eyes of this ancestral red dragon, which were like crystal clear rubies, he could grasp all the trajectories of the real world.

The trajectory of the flow of elements was like lines on the palm of his hand in his eyes: the yellow earth, the green wind, the blue water ripples, the red burning marks, the emerald green representing vitality, and all kinds of pure yet mixed elements.

There are also various traces of fields, fluctuations, etc. that are difficult to detect but have an influence everywhere in the real world.

"Earth, water, wind, fire, space and consciousness, the five elements and five qi, gold, wood, water, fire, earth..." Karon's low dragon voice was like a dragon's sigh, accompanied by the overlapping sounds of the red dragon. His five claws spread upwards had a suppressed and huge power surging.

With extremely high temperature rising flames, with sharp and solid metals, with the heavy and bearing earth, all kinds of power were born and burst out between his claws like overflowing light.

Then came the aura of elements and magic, and another dazzling spiritual light flashed by. All these scenes, like layers of flowing curtains being unveiled, flickered in Caron's pupils.

But in the end, all that remained in Karon's hands was a ball of dancing flame, which kept changing into various forms and transformed into various fire spirits that jumped between his thick claws, but were never able to escape from his claws.

Regarding fire, this is a red dragon's innate talent, but the ability to reach Charon's current level is not a change brought about by the improvement of the ancestral red dragon's bloodline. This is only part of the reason.

A larger proportion of it is the result of Caron's tireless learning and continuous exploration.

That was also the result of the countless Abyssal Purgatory Flame Demons and Fire Species and Fire Subspecies from various planes being drained of blood and thoroughly dissected in Caron's laboratory. This was also the area that Caron had mastered the most besides the spiritual realm. The flames spewed by other ancestral red dragons were high-level dragon breaths, which could even burn powerful elemental spirits born from the plane of fire.

The flames used by the powerful elemental spirits born in the Fire Elemental Plane could not cause elemental damage to the Ancestral Red Dragon, and did not even cause any trouble. However, Kalon's current flames could break through the Ancestral Red Dragon's almost complete immunity to fire and harm it.

This is only part of Karon's understanding of the field of fire. The temperature brought by the fire, the release of increased temperature and the absorption of lowered temperature are also within Karon's understanding.

This is also one of the reasons why this ancestral red dragon laughed at the power of the silver dragon Chris on the battlefield of the plains of the King's Capital.

The ice spell released by the silver dragon Chris was beyond the ability of silver dragons, and its power was indeed strong. But in front of the name of "freezing the world", the red dragon Kalon was more qualified to say this than the silver dragon Chris.

The flame between Karon's claws, at this moment, did not receive the infusion of the red dragon's magic and blood power, and suddenly heated up.

As the temperature of the flame gradually increases, the temperature of the space around the flame drops rapidly.

The temperature dropped so quickly and terrifyingly that the fine water vapor in the air condensed into ice, like tiny ice crystals, falling rapidly from the sky.

This low temperature even caused the ancestral red dragon Kalon's claws to be covered with a thin layer of frost, except for the claws where the temperature had risen to almost the same level as the sun's flames.

"Absolute zero, that's all," Caron smiled faintly and dispersed the flame in his hand.

If the silver dragon Chrissy Tiana heard this, she would probably fight with this hateful red dragon first, even if it meant getting a big bump on her head.

This ancestral red dragon once called himself the Supreme in Flame, and it was not an exaggeration. Not counting the other knowledge, law fragments, spiritual and mental authority and abilities contained in the blood of the ancestral red dragon of Kalon himself.

Even if his dragon blood only contained his understanding and knowledge about fire, giving the dragon blood of this ancestral red dragon to an ordinary kobold and giving the kobold enough time to develop and grow.

This kobold can rely on his power and knowledge as the descendant of the ancestral red dragon, Kalon, to play as a small lord in the purgatory of the abyss.

"Unfortunately, this is the only thing that can satisfy me temporarily," Karon restrained the power of the flame, sensed the other powers in his body, and frowned, revealing the fine scales between his brows that emitted a translucent luster like gems.

Even though earth and metal had already created complete domains and were close to the pinnacle level in the eyes of other dragons or wizards, in Charon's eyes, they were still far from the level he wanted to achieve.

There are other powers that are temporarily missing. If Caron wants to use his new talents and his exploration of knowledge to achieve from zero to one, from nothing to something, the process will inevitably consume countless resources and nutrients, as well as a considerable amount of time and countless energy.

And the source of the dragon's blood in his body also needs countless nutrients and resources to fill, satisfy, and grow.

This kind of resource consumption and thirst for nutrients is difficult to find even in the Ekania world. Because Kalon regards the Ekania world as his base, it is his foundation, so he cannot wantonly drain the pond to fish.

Moreover, to some extent, it runs counter to the goal of establishing the Dragon Empire that he established, but if it happens in other worlds and planes, it will have no impact.

“No matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead is, fortunately, I just firmly believe that the road is right under my feet. I will bathe in fire, forge in iron, step through blood and fire, and reach the unpredictable other side.”

Kalon stood up from the throne and stepped out. Although every time he came into contact with his bloodline talent, he always had an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if this talent was the first talent he was born with and should have.

But he no longer cared. He held his head high and strode out of the castle.

When Karon's huge body stepped out of the gate of the royal castle, he was stopped by the voice of the silver dragon Chris Tiana.

"Hey, Kalon, Kalon Gogmora, how long are you going to keep us locked up?"

The silver dragon Chris squatted on the ground with her hind legs, her pair of silver wings folded, her front legs holding a flaming chain, her beautiful and dignified head hidden in the shadows behind the pillars of the deep corridor, and she spoke softly.

The two adult bronze dragons on the other side pretended to have just noticed the red dragon. They each poked their heads out from behind a pillar and quietly watched the conversation between the ancestral red dragon and the silver dragon Valkyrie.

"Although your territory is here, with dragons and countless loyal and brave warriors, you can never imagine the true strength and power of the Southern Good Dragon Alliance."

Silver dragon Chris held her head high. Even as a prisoner, the silver dragon still tried hard to maintain her pride.

"Those two bronze dragons, Gross and Natarelli, are just candidates who have just applied to join the Good Dragon Alliance. They need to make achievements to be truly recognized, and then they can become official members after the review and approval of the Dragon Crown Council."

"Each of the official members of the Good Dragon Alliance will be more outstanding and prestigious than these two reckless and stubborn guys. You don't want to attract real alliance members. That would be a big trouble for you, your dragon group, and your empire."

The silver dragon Chris looked fearlessly into the indifferent dark golden pupils of the ancestral red dragon, and then said softly, "If you let us go now, I will do my best to mediate between you. As long as you can get the ancestral gold dragon Obilash back, I think I can persuade them to compensate you with a large sum of gold coins!"

The two bronze dragons on the side kept nodding in agreement even though the words of the silver dragon Chris were somewhat contemptuous of them. No dragon was willing to be locked outside the gate in such a humiliating way to serve as guards of the gate.

"Obilash, the golden-scaled bug, my treatment of him is irreversible. He is here, guarding the gate for me forever."

Karon's pupils were filled with indifference. He said calmly, "As for you, I can let you go, but you have to pay me a large sum of gold coins and serve the Empire for one to three years according to the laws of the territory. Only then will I grant you true freedom."

"The Southern Good Dragon Alliance, oh, if they are really that powerful, why would they hide in the corner of the southern continent? Let them come. I am here. I, Kalon Gogmora, am here, waiting for their arrival."

"You," Silver Dragon Chris's beautiful face flashed with anger, "I'm doing this for your own good. What do you think is the foundation of the Southern Good Dragon Alliance? The core members of the Dragon Crown Council have great influence. They can even contact the ancient Primordial Golden Dragon Council."

"Then wait for those dragons to ask the members of the Ancient Golden Dragon Council to speak first," Caron's cold words rang in the silver dragon's ears. "As for doing it for my own good, haha, a silver dragon doing it for the good of a red dragon, this joke is many times more powerful than your spell, Chris."

Silver Dragon Chris was speechless at the cold and stubborn words of the Red Dragon. She was silent for a moment. When she saw the Red Dragon was about to leave, she said, "I have gold coins and can pay your compensation temporarily, but I hope you can let me go free for the time being. I have some ideas that need to be verified. I think my views and thoughts should be changed."

After the silver dragon Chris finished speaking, magical light burst out from her claws, and gold coins piled up into small piles and appeared on the stone slabs of the corridor. The dragon only needed to glance at it to know the amount of gold coins in this small pile: 1,200 gold coins, not one more, not one less.

"I, I only have these gold coins left now, I think it should be enough to pay your compensation," Silver Dragon Chris said hesitantly. She felt a little regretful at this moment and stepped into the door of the Giant Dragon Eternal Card Hall.

"Damn it, no wonder the dragons in these dragon groups are so rich, they are really good at cheating people," the silver dragon Chris couldn't help but think so. In just half a day, she spent 800 gold coins in the card hall. This speed is faster than many dragons robbing people on the road.

This amount of gold coins is already a huge fortune for most dragons, but Charon didn't even want to take a second look at it.

Karon glanced at Silver Dragon, disdain evident on his face.

"I, the ancestral red dragon, the lord of all dragons, the monarch of the empire, is my dignity only worth this much?"

"You have to pay more," Caron opened his mouth wide, and his sneer pierced into Silver Dragon's heart like a cold sword, "Ten thousand gold coins, at least ten thousand gold coins."

"Also, after you are sentenced, you will have a lot of time to stay in the territory. There is no need to rush. I don't have any free time now. You can stay here for a few days for now."

　I originally wanted to take a leave to play Black Monkey, but then I thought about it, I haven't asked for votes once since it was put on the shelves, but the votes are increasing, which is inseparable from your support, so I gave up this idea! Ps: You can praise the author, the author's face is thicker than Caron's scales!
