Chapter 653 - 403: Challenge Invitation
Sel Wilderness, Northwest Region.
The black and red Giant Dragon stands like a mountain, and at this moment, its inherently powerful body is being covered by pieces of resplendent armor that seem to be entirely forged from gold.
Golden Dragon Nasha and Golden Dragon Alberto stand silently nearby, their eyes intently watching this process.
Nasha’s golden eyes reflect the image of the Red Iron Dragon.
She watches as each piece of armor precisely fits onto the Red Iron Dragon’s majestic body contours, observes the complex runes on key parts like the breastplate and shoulder plates being illuminated in sequence, emitting a warm and majestic golden glow.
When the last piece of arm armor fits snugly over Galos’ Dragon Arm.
The entire set of armor takes perfect form.
Galos’ already robust body is accentuated to appear even more mighty and imposing, blending the original ferocity of the Giant Dragon with the dignified aura of the armor, spreading out and filling any onlooker with awe.
He softly utters a few words, activating it, stretching his body.
After a period of adaptation and fine-tuning, under the control of the Red Iron Dragon, the overly dazzling magical glow on the armor’s surface gradually becomes restrained and quiets down.
"Indeed, even with the current strength of my body, the enhancement from this armor is still quite considerable."
Galos’ deep voice resonates in the air, carrying a hint of satisfied hum.
Nasha’s gaze remains firmly locked on the Red Iron Dragon, scrutinizing him from top to bottom.
Compared to the Red Iron Dragon she first encountered thirty years ago, Galos before her has undergone an earth-shattering transformation.
Shedding the disguise scales, exposing the deep black base color and crimson patterned Scale Armor, the uniquely structured Dragon Wings, peculiar double wings that are both dangerous and beautiful, and the profound Long Wei almost reaching its legendary limit.
All speak of his metamorphosis.
"Galos, your change is indeed immense."
"Was it really just a long sleep? That’s truly unbelievable."
She carefully senses Galos’ aura, her tone filled with barely concealed astonishment.
Beside her, Alberto habitually holds his head high, glancing at his Sister Long, giving her a ’much ado about nothing’ look.
Nasha directly ignores Alberto’s gaze, her eyes still focused on Galos.
"It seems this armor can truly shine on you, and unleash its true value."
Golden Dragon Nasha’s gaze slowly shifts, speaking softly.
The giant head of the Red Iron Dragon moves up and down, indicating agreement.
Then, he grins, revealing a smile: "I wholeheartedly concur with your statement."
"So, Nasha, can you gift it to me? It suits me so well."
Upon hearing this, Nasha’s gold eyes widen slightly, as if hearing something unfathomable, flicking her tail in displeasure, creating a gust.
"Galos! How can you shamelessly say that? Truly the audacious and greedy nature of an Evil Dragon!"
Her voice pauses, then she explains: "This armor belongs to my father and can be borrowed to you to confront powerful enemies, naturally, but I cannot arbitrarily give it away."
"If you really desire it, it’s not impossible."
"You may have the opportunity to personally visit Fubo Dragon Domain and ask my father for it face-to-face."
"Of course, provided you can persuade him."
Galos hears this, slightly shakes his head, and no longer continues this topic.
He’s always been insecure, dislikes being around those stronger than himself.
The Red Iron Dragon shifts the topic back to the armor itself, saying: "Nasha, no matter what, this armor is very significant to me."
"I appreciate your generous lending and this camaraderie, I remember it."
Upon hearing this, Nasha’s eyes suddenly shine with excitement, quickly saying: "As long as it works well!"
"Although, I’m very, very eager to see what kind of intense sparks will fly when you, wearing this armor, meet that Legendary Sword Saint."
As a dragon with a natural affinity for combat, revering power and glory.
Such legendary feats, recorded only in inheritance, have unparalleled allure for Nasha, almost her dream.
She profoundly yearns to replace Galos in a battle against the legendary.
Unfortunately, she knows herself well, and is aware that given her current power level, she would likely have to send out a distress signal to Dragon Domain, barely able to hold on for a few moves.
However, as a last resort, watching the Red Iron Dragon, clad in the armor she personally brought and lent, confront the legendary remains a unique way for Nasha to participate.
If Galos wins, she would naturally bask in the glory, as she indirectly participated in this great act.
If Galos were to fall, she and Alberto would immediately appear to jointly halt the human legendary, providing Galos a chance for survival.
If the opponent disregarded the Golden Dragon Race’s status and possible repercussions, insisting on attacking.
They would unhesitatingly call for help from Dragon Domain.
With two Golden Dragons in peril, Fubo Dragon Domain would undoubtedly intervene, swift rescue forces would descend.
Of course, both Nasha and Alberto truly hope it doesn’t come to that.
Alberto originally escaped Dragon Domain, accustomed to freedom outside, really doesn’t want to be caught and face possible punishment.
Whereas Nasha, whose initial mission was to arrest Alberto and take him back, herself ended up enjoying the wilderness.
