Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Unknowingly, It was late at night.

The blood moon rose.

The monsters around the Dragon Castle that were far away from the Dragon Castle due to fear during the day also became restless. All of them turned around and attacked the Dragon Castle.

Mike naturally welcomed these monsters in the wild.

By sending Derek to lead the earth dragon team, they would be able to accept all the basic resources, energy stones, and strange crystals dropped by these monsters in the wild.

The dragon-blood gnomes and dragon-blood soldiers did not sit idle either. They formed two teams of dragon-blood warriors and hunted the monsters in the wild that were more scattered on both sides of the Dragon Castle.

These battles happened thousands of meters away from the castle, and the noise they made did not affect the Dragon Castle at all.

As the most loyal servants of the Dragon Lord, they would not allow these monsters to disturb their master’s sleep.

Inside the Dragon Castle, Mike had been busy the whole day and was quite relaxed at night.

He opened the chat channel and chatted with the little loli in the underground world. After urging her to go to bed early, he washed up and went to bed.

...

After a quiet and wonderful night, the first ray of light in the morning lit up.

Mike woke up and ate the breakfast prepared by the dragon blood soldiers. He went to the castle and counted the gains from the night before.

“5,000 units of food, 3,100 units of wood, 2,000 units of stones, and 800 units of refined iron.”

“In addition, there are 321 energy stones and 2 strange crystals!”

“Although it’s not much, it’s still a harvest. If we count the hunting of the Beast Tide every night in the long run, it’s still very good!”

Mike nodded. As the Dragon Castle became more powerful, the number of monsters in the wild decreased, but there was no need to worry that they would be killed sooner or later!

From the day he arrived in the Endless Continent, he knew that in order to give the Castle Lords long-term pressure, the number of monsters in the wild was extremely terrifying.

Like the Beast Tide that he encountered in the past, it would not be a problem even if it came tens of thousands of times.

After that, Mike ordered the dragon-blood warriors to rest for a while before storing all of the material in the castle’s warehouse.

“Now, I have a total of 8,405 energy stones and 64 strange crystals!”

“To upgrade the dragon nest from level 4 to level 5, I need 10,000 energy stones and 100 more strange crystals. My inventory has reached 80% progress, and I’m not far from it!”

“When the dragon nest reaches level 5, I’ll hatch another giant dragon. When this giant dragon reaches king-tier, I won’t be far from taking down the gnome kingdom!”

“What I need to do now is to go to the elf tribe and check out the results of yesterday’s hard work.”

Mike smiled. He spent most of yesterday dealing with the elf tribe. Subduing 3,000 noble elves and an ancient elf tree gave him a sense of accomplishment in the future. That was why he wanted to visit the elf tribe as the Lord of the giant dragons.

“All demon hunter vulture, gather at the Dragon Castle.”

With a thought from Mike, more than a dozen dark blue demon hunter vulture flapped their wings and landed in front of the castle hall.

[Race: Demon hunter vulture]

[Level: Mid-tier 9]

[Loyalty: 100]

[Growth potential limit: Peak sage-tier]

After serving the Dragon Castle for two to three days, the strongest peak tier-8 demon hunter vulture had already broken through to tier 9. The rest of the demon hunter vulture had also made some progress.

Mike was quite satisfied and prepared to ride on the backs of these demon hunter vulture. However, this action immediately attracted the attention of Tyrell who was guarding the hall.

“My Lord, you are...” Tyrell the Nightmare Green Dragon looked at Mike who was holding the demon hunter vulture with one hand and lowered his head as he asked in puzzlement.

“Tyrell, as you can see, I am currently preparing to ride the demon hunter vulture and head to the elf tribe.”

“That is a faction that I have just subdued. I would like to go and inspect the specific situation!”

Hearing this, Tyrell’s expression immediately changed. He lowered his head and said respectfully, “then my Lord doesn’t need to ride on a demon hunter vulture. It’s enough for me to bring you to the elven tribe.”

As he spoke, Tyrell had already lowered his dragon wings to the ground, to the point where Mike could easily walk on his back along the slope.

Seeing Tyrell take the initiative to bring him along, Mike was a little troubled.

He had thought of this possibility before. He had considered riding his dragon to the elf tribe.

One was that the dragon’s movement speed was faster than the demon hunter vulture’s. Secondly, to ride on a dragon, it looked mighty and domineering.

This choice was obviously better.

However, in the end, Mike thought about it and still felt that the dragon battle team was the highest combat strength under his command. They also had intelligence. Riding on their heads always made him feel like he was abusing his superior power.

That was why he called the demon hunter vultures and prepared to bring Tyrell and the other dragons along.

Seeing that the Lord did not speak, Tyrell also felt Mike’s meaning. He bowed his dragon head and spoke respectfully again.

“As a member of the dragon clan, being controlled by the Dragon Lord, it is our honor for the Dragon Lord to ride on us!”

“Please don’t mind, Lord!”

“Also, Lord, you have to deal with so many things every day. Time is so precious. With my speed, I will definitely arrive at the elven tribe half an hour earlier than the demon hunter vulture!”

Tyrell’s tone was pleading. It was true that the dragons were high and mighty, but that was only for mortals!

No matter how noble they thought themselves to be, they were still the most pious servants in front of the Dragon Lord!

They regarded Mike as their glory, and serving the Dragon Lord was indeed the greatest honor. No dragon would mind!

“This... Alright then.” Mike looked at Tyrell’s repeated requests, but he did not refuse. He rode on the dragon wings.

Tyrell’s back was covered with impenetrable dark green scales.

As soon as he sat on it, Mike did not feel any discomfort. Instead, he felt very flat and comfortable.

Tyrell was more than fifty meters tall, and Mike rode on the back of the dragon and looked around at the castle.

This feeling of looking down on living beings made him very comfortable, but also a feeling of great dominance from the bottom of his heart naturally rose.

Usually, in the castle, Mike was used to hearing the dragons call him Dragon Lord, so he did not think much of it.

Only now did he realize that only this feeling of controlling a dragon could truly be called the Dragon Lord!

Seeing this, Mike dismissed the demon hunter vulture and gave Tyrell an order.

“Tyrell, go and call the other dragons. We’ll go to the elf tribe together.”

“Yes, my Lord!” Tyrell answered respectfully.. Then, he spread his dragon wings and a strong wind blew. Instantly, he soared into the sky in the castle!
