Moses made use of a dragon crystal in the Dragon Followers’ ceremony to reduce the amount of pain, torture, and danger.
The 300 chosen warriors felt the blood squirming into their skin via the pores, but they were unable to stop the Dragon’s blood from seeping in.
They also shouldn’t as,
The Dragon’s blood would change the DNA of a creature.
A normal Dragon Follower would look like a Human as long as his DNA could be completely suppressed. The Dragon scales would only appear after transformation. However, a Dragon Follower would always have yellow-colored pupils.
When the DNA of the Dragon’s blood would gain precedence over the creature’s DNA, he would become a monster. An example would be the handicapped Dragon Follower that William had encountered before. Besides the Human DNA being suppressed, even the battle energy and magic skills the human DNA possessed would be deactivated by the Dragon’s blood.
An excellent Dragon Follower should have 50% Human DNA and 50% Dragon’s blood DNA!
Fortunately, Moses’ magic formation was extraordinary.
The dragon crystal floated in mid-air as it emitted mysterious crimson rays on the bodies of the warriors.
The magic formation gave out a cold feeling. Rays of ethereal blue light flowed up the legs into the participants’ bodies, and these blue rays diminished much of their pain.
The Dragon Followers’ ceremony lasted for quite some time.
The merging of a Human and Dragon DNA took a whole hour.
In the process, the 300 warriors had fallen to the ground, wailing in pain. They crawled and rolled on the ground. But there were some strong-willed warriors too, and they sat in a lotus pose and braced themselves with battle energy.
William was pleased to know that there were many strong-willed warriors.
With insight, he could only check the potential of their bloodlines and loyalty, but he could not figure out their willpower.
He ordered the legion commander to select those warriors with vigor. After that, William picked the cream of the crop.
In such a harsh condition, there were warriors who sat down and cultivated their battle energy by using the Dragon’s blood to stimulate their meridian channels. They showed that they had ambition and possessed progressive ideas. They were worthy of being Dragon’s blood warriors.
However, there was something that was fortunate.
Only a small portion of the warriors were in terrible pain.
Moses’ magic formation had a significant benefit, a pain-killing effect.
After the hour had passed, 300 new Dragon’s blood warriors were created. None of them had perished!
They stood up firmly. Then they knelt down to William and shouted, “Thank you, Lord William. Thank you for bestowing on us the Dragon’s blood and for giving us a new life. Glory to our Lord William.”
“Glory to our Lord William!”
“Glory to our Lord William!”
Like the torrential waves, the loudly cheering repeated incessantly. The commoners had also become excited when they saw the creation of Dragon Followers and shouted excitedly.
Bathing in the Dragon’s blood was a symbol of glory!
The Dragon’s blood warriors were symbols of glory!
But this glory had been bestowed by Lord William.
William stood on the tall platform and waved at the people down. The incessant cheering completely stopped. Then William activated his battle energy and spoke loudly, “May glory be with us. My glory is your glory!”
“Nine of them are Dragon Speakers, while the rest are Dragon Followers. Quite good.” William was elated. It happened like what Moses had said, there was a certain chance that Dragon Speakers would be created. It went beyond his expectations.
Of the nine Dragon Speakers, three had epic-level bloodlines, while the rest had master-level bloodlines. The Dragon Followers had two epic-level warriors and 188 master-level warriors. The remaining warriors were of high-level bloodlines!
It was simple.
The 300 Dragon’s blood warriors had become extraordinary soldiers.
“Excellent!” Lautner nodded with elation. He could not stop thinking, “In a battle, if these 300 warriors transformed, they can easily defeat any legions regardless of their defensive formations.”
“I didn’t expect Moses to be so highly-skilled.” Odom pondered. He let out a wicked laugh. “If the King of Iron Nation were to hear the news, wouldn’t he die of anger?”
William nodded in agreement. He looked at the conference hall that was full of his confidantes and smiled as he said, “The normal Dragon’s blood has been used up. There is only the superior Dragon’s blood left in the Dragon’s heart. Who wishes to try?”
The normal blood of the legendary middle-level Fire Dragon was of epic quality.
The fresh blood in the heart was of legendary quality. It was simply awesome.
Lautner, Odom, and Eric already knew about this. And today, they had the chance to become either a Dragon Follower or a Dragon Speaker. They looked at each other.
They knew that the legend of a Dragon’s blood warrior was too incredible. They had heard of warriors bathing in Dragon’s blood and becoming so powerful they couldn’t imagine…
However,
They were also proud of their own bodies and their capabilities.
And they had personally witnessed the creation of Dragon Followers and Dragon Speakers. They had felt that immense power the Dragon’s blood possessed.
It was no simple choice.
In the end, Odom and Lautner felt that with their unique bloodlines, they were still geniuses. They declined the choice to become Dragon’s blood warriors.
Odom had the royal bloodline of the Lonely Mountain running in his veins. Even though currently, he only possessed the epic level potential, it was a result of his malnutrition. He still had the chance to upgrade to the legendary bloodline!
As for Lautner, he believed that he was extremely handsome…
Eric and his son also declined the choice. They believed that their fire endowment would be activated once they bathed in the Dragon’s blood, and it would suppress their mind power. It would be awful for assassination and moving in the shadows.
The legion commander of [Night Legion], Legolas, raised his brow and scoffed. He would have considered it twice if it had been a Wind Dragon…
The confidantes of William did not like the Dragon’s blood.
But others did.
Fiu Roeser, the Tauren Warrior, raised a ruckus. He proclaimed his wish to become the first Dragon’s blood Tauren Warrior in the legendary continent…
Christian also hurried back from the Light Fortress. As a legion commander of [Fearless Legion], he was interested in becoming stronger with the use of the Dragon’s blood.
The legion commander of [Honor Legion] Julio, who only had the master-level bloodline, also wanted to bathe in the Dragon’s blood.
The legion commander of [Moonlight Legion] Albert was a Moonlight Elf with an epic-level bloodline.
But his hidden professional was a flaming soldier; hence he wanted to become a Dragon Speaker. It would make his fire attributes stronger.
“Just four? Only four of you came?” William stroked his chin. He already had a legendary bloodline. Hence, the only effects the Dragon’s blood would have on him would’ve been to allow him to transform and upgrade his attributes.
But he perfectly understood that.
Fire Dragons belonged to the fire element, while William belonged to the thunder element.
A Dragon Speaker would have an additional endowment and become a dual attributes professional. It was very impressive but also an arduous task. It would require much more experience points to upgrade a level, and he would also have to learn many new skills in the process.
Too many skills, especially when they were repetitive, was not a good thing.
William was not really interested, he would’ve been if it had been a thunder element. He decided to kill a Thunder Dragon, if the opportunity arose, to boost his thunder attributes and attack power.
“Good, I’ll let the four of you have a taste of the Dragon’s blood. As for the remaining Dragon’s blood, I’ll decide what to do with it later.”
William nodded. The Dragon’s blood was sufficient for 10 uses, and after this, he would have 6 uses left. He had to plan properly for the Dragon’s blood to create the highest value.
It was simple.
Every part of the Fire Dragon was a treasure, even if it was an anus.
