Red Dragon, but chosen by all four gods

Before the verdant statue, shimmering light emanates, and a scene unfolds.

The image shows Herlos and Motal gathered on the operating table.

The scene shifts, and Horos pours his dragon blood into Izek's chest.

Finally, the image freezes on Izek as he finishes his transformation and climbs up from the operating table.

A prompt appeared in the center of the screen:

[You and your loyal companions have completed a transformation of life, your bloodline has been continued, and you have received the corresponding reward.]

Your constitution attribute +0.7

Your companion's constitution attribute +0.3

[You and your allies gain the ability: True Blood Forever]

[True Blood Endures Forever: Your true blood will never run dry, and your offspring will inherit it. The true blood within them will regenerate and be passed on to new offspring.]

After the rewards were distributed, the scene transformed into a star, upon which a phantom image of a drop of blood appeared, slowly rotating around the verdant statue.

"I*!"

Heros was truly shocked when he saw the power of the "Verdant" statue.

He hadn't expected that transforming an incomplete dragonborn member would trigger "Azure".

Secondly, he didn't expect that the [True Blood Legacy] reward from "Greenery" would suit him so well.

Indeed, Heros exclaimed, not because this ability was far more powerful than others, but because it suited him so perfectly!

His plan to create "family members" was to trigger the "Dream Palace" by creating family members.

The only problem with this plan is that it's still just a fledgling.

For a considerable period of time, he was unable to gather enough true dragon blood to complete the dragonborn transformation. Therefore, he had to settle for a less desirable option: using only a small amount of true blood in conjunction with bio-alchemy to create an incomplete familiar.

The thin layer of dragon blood can meet the requirements for a familiar, but other combat abilities can only be compensated for through modification surgery.

According to Heros's original plan, even if the surgical procedure was fully mature and the loss of dragon blood was minimized, he would at most have one or two squads of followers when the dragons entered the young stage.

Now that he has the [Eternal True Blood], not only has his own speed of regenerating true blood greatly increased, but his followers have also gained the ability to condense true blood!

In this way, the speed of the plan will inevitably increase exponentially!

"No... that's a bit too optimistic."

Heros quickly calmed down. Although the [True Blood Transmission] greatly improved him, he could not ignore the basic conditions.

According to the original plan, there was no need to consider supply.

Dragon Nest can afford to support just one or two small teams.

The costs of alchemy can be covered by begging your mother, since you're still in the basic stage and the magical materials needed aren't particularly valuable.

A legion... Seralia herself doesn't even have a legion, so where would she get the money to support her own legion?

And where did all these soldiers come from?

Ultimately, it all comes down to having territory!

Only with their own territory can they have soldiers, supplies, and magical materials.

Heros felt that he might be the most ambitious fledgling dragon in the world.

Things must be done step by step; an empire is not built in a day.

Heros shook his head and casually collected the "Azure" reward next to him.

As expected, it comes from the "0.1 intelligence attribute" which stems from a deeper understanding of the rules of the world.

All things considered, I'm almost at the point where I can get "1 point of Intelligence" again, which is the attribute that all statues provide the most.

"With the [Eternal True Blood], the plan can be revised. All the modification plans that were shelved due to insufficient True Blood can be restarted..."

After receiving his reward, Heros exited the "Dream Palace".

The Palace of Dreams did not immediately disappear after Heros left.

Instead, it seemed that as the last statue was lit up, the stars on all four statues lit up at the same time, vying for brilliance, as if they were competing for something.

Soon, seemingly because half of the star power was taken away, "Crimson" was the first to be suppressed by the radiance of the other three statues.

Then, "Azure," whose star power had been divided by one-third, was also quickly suppressed.

Inside the palace, only the fully empowered "Azure" and "Dark Purple" are still competing.

In the end, "Azure" won with a complete star and a fragmented star.

As the first to be granted power, "Dark Purple" could only be unwillingly suppressed by the radiance of "Azure".

In an instant, the magnificent palace was bathed in a brilliant "azure" light, as if even the main body of the palace had been dyed with a layer of "azure" color.

Upon seeing this, the radiance of the other three statues trembled slightly, as if to say: "Azure" is cunning.

It's as if it's saying: Just you wait and see.

After this competition was over, the Palace of Dreams finally dissipated slowly.

Heros slowly woke up and immediately sensed something was different.

Inside the chest cavity, the heart was beating with unprecedented force, and scalding blood, hot as magma, surged and flowed through the body.

This change is not as intuitive as the "strength attribute" given by "Crimson," which is directly reflected in the muscles.

Rather, it is a comprehensive enhancement of vitality and physical strength.

For example, it means that both health points and stamina points have increased.

Just as the "Intelligence" attribute provides finesse and the "Charisma" attribute provides mana sustain.

Heros was in high spirits after finally triggering all the statues.

He planned to have a big meal.

As soon as they stepped out of the cave, they saw two baby dragons guarding the cave entrance.

Upon seeing Heros emerge, the two young dragons hesitated and looked at each other.

Finally, the straightforward Maglen spoke first: "Brother, have you already bestowed the blessing upon Mortal?"

"It's just a notebook; she deserves it."

Heros answered casually, but then he remembered what had just happened inside the "Dream Palace".

One-third of the "physical attribute" granted by "Verdant" was given to Mortar, who assisted Heros.

So he asked, "What did Mortar do?"

"When Mortar came to us to show off your notes, she suddenly burst into laughter like a madwoman. She said she had received your blessing, and then she started flying around the dragon's nest. In the end, Lord Macalos captured her and locked her in her own dragon's nest."

Ferdom's answer made Herlos almost imagine the scene of Mortar running wild.

The last person to share the rewards from the "Dream Palace" was Anglu, and at that time he was still in a state of mind where he had been brainwashed into repeating himself, so Heros forgot about giving "attributes".

"She's too arrogant and doesn't know how to restrain herself," Heros shook his head.

"Respected elder brother."

Ferdom bowed his head deeply, looking up at Heros in a submissive posture, and asked cautiously:

"We have completed the many trials you have given us. When will you... I mean, if you can grant us your grace, we will humbly accept your arrangements."

"Me too," Maglen quickly added.

Heros did indeed assign various trial tasks to the three-headed dragon hatchlings, intending for them to trigger the "Dream Palace" on his behalf.

Unfortunately, neither hunting nor learning can trigger "Crimson" and "Azure".

They lacked the same willingness to fight to the death as Anglu, and they also lacked the same strong learning ability and patience as Heros.

It was an unexpected situation that Mortar was able to trigger "Verdant" with him; Heros did not know that "Verdant" could be triggered in this way.

"Don't be impatient, the blessing will come eventually."

Heros casually replied, "When the blessing arrives, you must not be as arrogant and domineering as Mortar, understand?"

"Yes! We will remain humble," the black dragon and the blue dragon replied together.

Watching Heros's departing figure, they felt that their brother's body... seemed to have grown even taller.

Is it just psychological?

In short, both young dragons looked at their still-growing bodies and felt somewhat uneasy.

They desperately hoped that Heros would recognize them and prevent them from being trampled on by the equally powerful green and white dragons in turn.

Even if they are trampled on, they are still red dragons, so they can feel a little better.

In short, they could only return to their respective dragon nests in disappointment.
