Chapter 78
The little darling wants a hug, what should I do at this moment?
Waiting online, quite urgent.
The main issue is that it's too tempting. Su Nian is afraid of punching a few more holes in the bedrock platform, then how will he sleep?
Looking at Anna with her soft little hands raised, standing on tiptoe, her pretty face blushing, eyes slightly closed, looking so deliciously charming, Su Nian had long thrown away any thoughts of the Diamond Sutra or the Purity Mantra.
At this moment, there was no such thing as emptiness, no blank stare.
There was blushing, there was heart-throbbing, there was being at a loss, there was not daring to look directly, there was liking.
Hug!
With this thought, Su Nian carefully extended his dragon claw to hold Anna to his chest, but his size was really a bit too large for Anna.
To say it was a hug, in reality, it was more like Su Nian pressing Anna against his chest, a scene that looked both warm and comical, as if Su Nian was sticking a sticker on his chest.
But Anna didn't mind.
She tried her best to spread her little hands, wanting to properly embrace her Dragon Brother.
Once she was completely enveloped by Su Nian's chest armor and dragon claws, she let out a contented sigh, a sweet smile appearing on her charming face.
"More, brother, I want more cuddles~"
Anna tilted her fair and delicate face up to Su Nian, squinting her eyes, her eyelashes fluttering, and pouting her red lips.
"Bang!"
A loud noise sounded, and Anna opened her eyes in surprise, momentarily stunned. Then, she saw the Black Dragon's embarrassed and helpless expression.
"Anna, this..."
Su Nian was just about to explain, but Anna had already taken over the conversation.
"Hehe, brother, Anna knows, you were testing the kobolds' construction skills, testing if the rock platform they built is sturdy enough, right?"
"Ah, yes, yes, that's it, sigh... this platform is really too flimsy, hard to handle."
Anna couldn't help but burst into laughter at Su Nian's serious nonsense.
Her glossy pink lips lifted slightly, forming two shallow dimples, her slightly chubby face showing a hint of blush, looking both charmingly naive and a bit shyly alluring.
Her bright peach blossom eyes squinted slightly, the smile at the corners of her brows lingering for a long time.
Su Nian was stunned, dragon saliva dripping onto the ground.
"Brother? Does Anna look good?"
"Good, very good."
"Do you like it?"
"Like, like."
"Then why not give Anna a kiss, hmph╯^╰"
As Anna spoke, she tightened her hold around Su Nian's neck, standing on the broad dragon claw and gently lifting her toes.
Though she was coquettishly asking Su Nian to kiss her, she herself took the initiative to pucker her red lips and kiss Su Nian's cheek.
"Although it feels strange, Anna is very happy."
Seeing Su Nian's dumbfounded look, Anna lowered her eyes with a smile, resting her forehead against Su Nian's nose bridge.
"In the future, when brother grows bigger and bigger, Anna might not be able to kiss you anymore, so while brother isn't as tall as a mountain yet, I have to seize the time..."
【Also seizing the time as life slips away】
Su Nian didn't speak, he responded to Anna's attachment with his licking dragon behavior.
"prprprprprprpr!"
……
【Anna Hathaway's affection +3, current affection 81 (Desire to Possess)】
【Congratulations to the host for reaching the third stage of affection, gaining Advanced Devour, special skills can be directly upgraded, already upgraded and solidified】
【Congratulations to the host for gaining 5000 system points】
【Advanced Devour: Devouring prey can promote body growth without age restriction.
Additionally, devouring different substances can provide different enhancements. (For example, devouring iron ore will enhance the iron element content in the host's scales)】
System prompts appeared one after another in his mind, but Su Nian had no time to care, as he was very busy at the moment.
"prprprprprprpr..."
……
Half an hour later.
Anna finally finished washing her face.
She was physically weak and rather sleepy.
Now she lay on Su Nian's belly, sound asleep.
Her charming face was serene, her willow brows relaxed, and a sweet smile hung at the corner of her mouth.
It was already midnight, with faint insect chirps around.
Occasionally, a cool breeze would blow into the dragon nest, lifting the long hair at the girl's forehead.
Su Nian lay on his back on the rock platform, limbs spread out, his broad dragon wings gently covering Anna.
The Silvermoon Forest was quite cold in the second half of the night, so he added an extra layer of bear skin over Anna.
To be honest, apart from those foolish White Dragons, hardly any dragon would adopt such a sleeping posture, as the dragon's belly is considered one of the more vulnerable areas.
And dragons are most defenseless when sleeping, so most dragons sleep in a curled-up position.
This posture only exposes their back armor, with the belly pressed against the ground, providing a very secure sleeping position.
But Su Nian didn't care anymore, as long as his darling was happy.
After all, he still had half a human soul.
So sleeping on his back wasn't uncomfortable, it was even more comfortable than curling up.
However, Su Nian wasn't in the mood to sleep at the moment, he was busy counting his gains.
The over five hundred cheap laborers captured and the large amount of human standard gear picked up were set aside for now.
In the previous battle, he and his subordinates killed over a thousand soldiers.
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from "pawread.com".
Most of these soldiers were below Tier 1, each providing him with only 2-5 system points.
Adding in the few soldiers above Tier 1, Grand Knight Wemons, and Archmage Meima Gōgōko, Su Nian gained over 7000 system points from killing enemies this time.
Adding the system points gained from Anna's affection increase, Su Nian now had over ten thousand system points remaining.
These ten thousand system points could support him in immediately completing the second stage "Advanced Scale Density" and the third stage "Advanced Scale Strength" modifications, and besides that, his devour skill had also been upgraded to advanced.
"Can I enhance myself by devouring substances? It seems quite powerful..."
Su Nian gently scratched his chin.
Then, he extended his dragon claw to the edge of the rock steps, and with a slight force, "crack," he pinched off a piece of hard rock.
"If devouring iron ore is useful, then devouring rocks should be useful too, right?"
With this thought, Su Nian casually tossed the rock into his mouth, "panting" as he chewed.
Dragons eating dirt isn't that unusual.
Many Metallic Dragons not only eat dirt but also eat metal, aiming to increase their scale strength.
Chromatic Dragons can also eat dirt and metal, but the effect is very poor, eating too much easily causes constipation, and the taste of dirt and metal is also very bad for them.
After all, Chromatic Dragons primarily consume organic matter, and won't eat dirt unless absolutely necessary.
It's really hard to eat, no flavor!
Su Nian spat out the rock, sprinkled some MSG on it, and then threw it back into his mouth.
This time it was much more palatable.
As Su Nian chewed, he didn't feel any sense of fullness, as if there was a black hole in his stomach that had already absorbed the rock.
【Ding! Devoured 537g of bedrock, rock scale strength increased by 0.0001%, body stiffness increased by 0.0002%, speed decreased by 0.0005%】
"Ah, this, it seems I can't just eat anything?"
Su Nian was slightly stunned, quickly spitting out the part of the rock he hadn't swallowed yet.
