This Giant Dragon is So Powerful!

Chapter 231 - 44: Giants and Giant Dragons (Part 2)

Although dragon beasts are not weak when they grow, they generally possess advanced power, but the problem is, dragon beasts that can grow up are very rare.

To be more precise, it’s very hard to see grown five-colored dragon beasts, while metallic dragon beasts are abundant, because metallic dragons don’t abandon or kill dragon beasts, but manage them and raise them together... This is not because metallic dragons treat dragon beasts as their kin but merely out of benevolence.

"But there are too few five-colored dragon beasts."

After leaving, Carolina was still pondering deeply.

A five-colored dragon beast is either killed by the Dragon Mother at birth or driven out of the Dragon Nest by the Dragon Mother; there’s basically no third option.

In this situation, though many dragon beasts are born every year, less than one in ten truly survive.

"Right, the Black Dragon Lord said there’s no limitation on breed..." Carolina’s eyes suddenly lit up.

She thought of the large group of dragon beasts unified under the care of the metallic dragons.

Of course, although they are nurtured together, the metallic dragon beasts can’t be raised on Dragon Island but in another designated area.

Metallic dragons don’t let the dragon beasts fend for themselves but raise them together, which is already merciful enough. It’s unlikely they would live and eat together. After all, dragon beasts are essentially wild beasts, even if they possess dragon blood.

Compared to humans, it’s like the difference between a normal human baby and a devolved, unintelligent infant monkey.

Not killing or throwing them away and even giving them food to grow up, isn’t that merciful?

Even if a normal human baby is born with a slight defect, many would kill or abandon their children, let alone an unintelligent creature different from their kin.

The behavior of the five-colored dragons, compared with various human behaviors, is not particularly cruel at all.

The more Carolina thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

But before that, she had to first find the five-colored dragon beasts she could.

Through Carolina’s efforts, visiting everywhere, and even mobilizing a large number of creatures from the Crimson Nest to search, within only a month, eighty-six dragon beasts were sent to the Black Wing Nest.

Among them, red and blue dragon beasts are the most numerous, followed by black and green dragons, with the weakest white dragon beasts being the rarest, which is a reversal of the strength ranking of the five-colored dragons.

This is largely attributed to the blue dragons.

As is well-known, blue dragons like to huddle together to form large blue dragon families, ravaging an area and establishing vast territories.

For this, the blue dragon race needs to collect a large number of dragon eggs and young true dragons wandering in the wild to sign contracts with and become family members. Among them, not every dragon egg can hatch a true dragon.

When dragon beasts hatch, the blue dragon family’s approach is somewhat different from the other four types of five-colored dragons.

They raise the dragon beasts as large beasts, letting them become charging giant beasts and tanks in war.

In this situation, although dragon beasts also suffer casualties, the survival rate is much higher than if they were abandoned or killed right after birth.

Moreover, at the same age, naturally stronger red and blue dragon beasts have a higher survival rate compared to green and black dragons; the weakest white dragon beasts, although more numerous, also die more frequently.

In the blue dragon family, neither white dragons nor white dragon beasts hold high status; the former is generally low among true dragons, while the latter, often used as high-level cannon fodder, has low status among dragon beasts.

Udi was quite pleased with the eighty-six dragon beasts sent by Carolina.

One reason was the quantity and efficiency; another was that these dragon beasts generally possessed some level of strength, with few newly born ones, mostly being dragon beasts over a few decades old.

On their first day at the Black Wing Nest, all dragon beasts were infused with void bloodline.

"Most dragon beasts have middle-level strength, and with the transformation from void power, in a few years, they will become a batch of advanced giant dragons." Udi smiled with a glimmer in his eyes.

Once infused with void bloodline, dragon beasts develop intelligence, and their dragon bodies will be stronger than same-level dragons, but because they are essentially devolved dragon beasts, their dragon breath, majesty, and spell-like abilities are significantly reduced. One aspect strengthens, and another weakens, hence, the strength of void dragon beast giants and ordinary dragons is almost the same at the same level.

But what Udi cared about wasn’t the short-term potential for these dragon beasts to grow to advanced levels. High-level combat power, even high-level excellent dragons, is not of much use to Udi or the Black Wing Nest.

Udi was looking further ahead.

Advanced dragons in a few years might not mean much, but what about a legion of master-level giant dragons comparable to adult dragons in ten or twenty years?

If that’s still lacking, what about after fifty years?

By then, even if this group of dragons doesn’t break through to legendary status, reaching level 18-19 giant dragons shouldn’t be difficult; moreover, even the weakest level 19 giant dragons would have elite second-tier strength, easily defeating ordinary level 19 professionals. The strong ones might even compete with the first-tier limit and exchange blows with legends.

The Black Wing Nest originally had four dragon beasts led by Antonio, and adding the newly recruited eighty-six, there were exactly ninety dragons.

If they survive for decades, they will become a group of giant dragons with combat power approaching legendary status.
