“According to the pattern and size, it must be a dragon scale. It’s not from a Giant Dragon, but from a dragon scale in human form. I don’t know whether this dragon scale belongs to a Dragon Speaker or a Dragon Follower!” Lautner’s eyes were full of doubt and caution.
Whether it was a Dragon Speaker or Dragon Follower, it had the blood of the Dragon race and could not be provoked.
William reached for the dragon scale.
The material information appeared.
Dragon scale: The scale dropped by a Dragon Speaker.
Grade: Silver
William frowned. Dragon Speakers and Dragon Followers were people with Dragon blood, and their bloodline potential was equal to elves, or even stronger.
Basically, they have the bloodline potential above the Grandmaster level.
Especially when they had transformation skills. After transforming, their bodies would be covered with scales. Not only could it greatly increase their defense and recovery, but it could also increase their attack power and movement speed. In short, it was an all-round attribute improvement.
The difference between Dragon Speakers and Dragon Followers was that Dragon Speakers were NPCs who had a Dragon’s Whisper cast on them, making them have a portion of a Giant Dragon’s blood ability. They belonged to the servant of the Dragon race.
As for Dragon Followers, they bathed in Dragon blood themselves, but there was a half-chance of death.
However, no matter which kind, those with Dragon blood could not be underestimated.
But there was one point.
The number of Dragon Speakers was rare. Elemental Dragons, Metal Dragons or Gem Dragons were very stingy and rarely gave blood to servants and relatives and cast Dragon’s Whisper to transform them into Dragon Speakers.
This also led to the rarity of Dragon Speakers, but they were certainly stronger than Dragon Followers, besides being able to transform, also had powerful Dragon’s Whisper.
As for Dragon Followers?
Basically, they could only rely on killing Dragons!
It was very difficult to mate between Humans and Dragons. There was no choice, you had to die because of one’s anus exploding.
Dragon Followers were divided into several levels. The most common ones were those who bathed in normal Dragon blood and those who bathed in the blood from the Dragon’s heart.
“It’s all things that can improve attributes. Shall I try it in the future?” William touched his chin. After players enter the game, there were many races to choose from. But in the middle and later stages of the game, there were not too many ways to change the race.
But there were advantages and disadvantages to changing one’s race.
Choosing to be a Dragon Speaker basically meant betraying the Human camp because unless you subdued a Giant Dragon it would cast its Dragon’s Whisper on you to become a Dragon Speaker.
Otherwise, the only choice was to become a servant.
One would need to change camps after choosing to become a Dragon Speaker. After changing camps, the reputation and goodwill one had in their previous camp would be cleared and the things one came into contact with would become less.
This mission, plot, mainline and so on were likely to have no connection to the players’ large force.
But the advantages were self-evident.
It was equivalent to entering into a long-term hidden mission. If one mixed well, he could be a top player.
Of course, those who did not want to change camps could subdue a Giant Dragon and become a Dragon Knight. But such a high title seemed like a top mission that could only be completed in the later stages of the game...
The requirements for Dragon Followers were not so high. After all, Dragon Slayers loved to bathe in Dragon blood and drink the blood to strengthen themselves, but in the early and middle stages of the game, how many players would have the chance to bathe in Dragon blood? Who said that those bathing in Dragon blood would surely become a Dragon Follower? This was all about chances!
Even a newborn baby dragon was not something that players could contend against in the early stages.
When those cute looking young dragons used their Dragon Breaths, it would cause an area of effect.
No matter how much the players shouted, the corpses would fall in pieces and the smell of roasted meat would be so fragrant that the Orcs next door would be itching for it.
As for player damage?
There was no break in defense!
Of course, there would be some players with high luck who had great fortune. For example, meeting a dying Giant Dragon or being given Dragon blood by some NPCs.
“It is said that there has always been a Giant Dragon on the Snow Mountain of the East Sea. This dragon scale must have come from there!” Lautner shifted his gaze to the East.
The Snow Mountain of the East Sea was also located in Blackleaf Forest, near the Southeast corner of the sea.
The highest mountain was 13000 meters above sea level and the area above 6000 meters was barren, full of snow and strange stones. It was also an active volcano.
But Lautner did not know which dragon was on top of that mountain.
William narrowed his eyes and shook his head, saying, “Let’s not worry about those. The Snow Mountain of the East Sea is 300 kilometers away from our territory. No matter where this dragon scale comes from, it doesn’t matter.”
But when he turned to leave, he could not help but feel annoyed. Version 1.0 of the game was the story of the two duchies fighting for hegemony. This was also the main mission that players could participate in.
But this did not mean that nothing happened in Blackleaf Forest, or that there were no wars in the other countries in the Legendary continent.
He remembered that after occupying the marginal territory, Iron Duchy often had conflicts with the races in Blackleaf Forest.
There would be many races appearing when there were wars. It was not limited to Orcs, Vhouls, Trolls and so on.
If the Iron Duchy had not defeated the Black Rock Duchy and drawn out a large number of troops to guard the border town, it would be completely occupied by other races.
The reason those guys repeatedly occupied the territory of the Black Rock Duchy was that they had powerful forces supporting them from behind.
Among them, Dragon Speakers appeared many times and made the Iron Duchy seriously injured and caused deaths, making the Iron Duchy send out more Epic levels to guard the town.
But there seemed to be a deep hatred between the two. No one was willing to take a step back, they would just set off one war after another. Tens of thousands of players had participated in the wars over a long time, with deep rewards.
Some players only understood it when they dug deep into the mission.
It turned out that the Giant Dragon in the Snow Mountain of the East Sea was attacked by the Iron Duchy. That war caused both sides to be wounded and even though the Giant Dragon had recuperated for six months, it had not completely recovered. But it was conscious enough to command the clans and servants to wage war.
“In this way, am I in grave danger?” William thought of this and could not help cursing. His town was just on the boundary line of the two and belonged to a place the strategists fought for. Whoever occupied this place first would gain a favorable advantage.
In his previous life, even if William could avoid the attack of the Iron Duchy, he would not be able to defend this town.
Because if the Giant Dragon of the Snow Mountain wanted to attack the Iron Duchy, it would have to occupy the town first, as it held the most value.
The Iron Duchy probably knew that the Giant Dragon would retaliate, so it took advantage of the source of the secret silver mine to destroy William from his previous life...
“Then from now on, there is still a year and a half to develop. Only when we are strong and powerful can we completely stand firm in the town. Otherwise, no matter who attacks, I would have to abandon this territory if I want to survive!” William clenched his fist. He did not want to run away when everything began.
His Legendary father left him a territory with excellent geographical advantages and he would not give it up that easily.
“But if the Iron Duchy wants to attack the Giant Dragon, why can’t I benefit from it? I didn’t know at the beginning, but now that I understand it, I must plan something.
“If the Iron Duchy is still so shameless and continues to go over my head to secretly kill the dragon, they really did not take me, this wild king, seriously!” William narrowed his eyes, looked at the soldiers who had collected the materials and equipment, and waved his hand.
“Put those 300 Orcs to work in the iron ore mine, the rest are going back with me!”
“Yes, my Lord!” The sonorous and powerful voices resounded through the night. The remaining Elfin Warriors followed the brave and scheming Lord back to the territory and along the way William raised his Holy Dawn battle energy to level 5.
The other three skills were raised to level 3.
And then he used the remaining experience for himself.
At this time, William was at level 14.
He had gained 24 attribute points which he added to agility and strength respectively.
There was also a significant increase in health.

“The advantage of the Legendary battle energy cheat is this. As long as you level up your skills to level 3, you can have special effects in advance!” William grinned. He had to say, he was more confident about his future survival.
