In the game, Link knew where the Dragon Valley was . In the middle of the game, he was even a frequent guest there, but in real life, he only knew an approximate location .
This time, Felina transformed into a dragon again for Link to ride . Nana also went with because she was now his personal guard .
Felina flew west at an incredible speed, at around 400 miles per hour .
"How long will we fly for?" Link knew that the Red Dragon Valley was in a mountain range in the extreme west, far from the Norton Kingdom . He estimated it was around 2500 miles away .
"If we don't stop, it might be around eight hours, but with two people, I can't keep up for that long . I must rest a few times . " The distance Felina said was much farther than Link had estimated .
Flying was physical work . Taking any bit of weight into the sky required great physical input . Link was around 150 pounds while Nana's full-metal body was more than 200 pounds . These were all extra burdens on Felina . More importantly, her body had just recovered from a serious injury . Her vigor had not recovered fully yet .
It was a long time, and Felina didn't seem to want to talk . Link was bored, so he looked around . Suddenly, he discovered some odd details on Felina's body .
The scales under her neck used to be organized, but now there was a disorganized mark . At closer inspection, Link confirmed that it had been damaged by an aggressive force . From the look of it, it seemed like a beast's claws .
After discovering this, Link observed left and right . He found more healed wounds that weren't there before .
Dragon's had 360-degree vision, so Felina caught Link's stare . "The dark force has affected all the races in the world," she explained . "Like Wavier, someone of my race also betrayed us . A powerful Red Dragon was lured by the demon G.o.d, and dozens of young ones followed him . They led a surprise attack to kill our queen . The attack was very sudden, but thankfully, we forced them back . "
It dawned on Link why Felina seemed more anxious and exhausted at first glance . There had been a disaster in the Dragon Valley .
He noticed that Felina had said "forced them back" rather than "defeated . "
"You weren't completely successful?" Link asked .
"Yes . Isendilan was once the queen's husband . He was very powerful, becoming even more so after receiving the demon G.o.d's power . Even the queen could only fight against him for a short period…The situation was very bad . "
Link fell silent . He knew Isendilan!
In the game, Isendilan had many names, such as "Wings of Destruction," the "Fallen Dragon," and the "Destructor of the World . " The scariest thing about him was that, even though he'd fallen, he didn't fully obey the demon G.o.d . He still had a level head . He had sunk into sober madness!
That was the scariest thing .
His abilities were shocking as well . In the game, he had fallen near the middle . At that time, the density of Mana had started rising . Isendilan's power shot up to the Legendary Pinnacle!
Yes, he reached the Legendary Pinnacle, and he was a Dragon, meaning he had nearly endless strength . Even Eliard, who also reached the Legendary Pinnacle in this life, was no match for Isendilan .
If the Red Dragon Queen Gretel didn't fight against him with the Red Dragon Army, his damage to Firuman would be comparable to the Lord of the Deep, Nozama .
"How powerful is he now?" Link asked .
"The same as the queen . He has broken through the Legendary State, and he has seven subordinates left . The weakest is at the pinnacle of Level-6; the strongest is at the pinnacle of Level-8 . There's also a Dragon Magician…They're all difficult!"
Here, it dawned on Link . "Isendilan is the main force you said that broke the equilibrium, right? But I just used the Red Dragon Queen's Blessing potion, and my strength is restricted . I might…"
Even if he was at his strongest point, he would probably die from just the Dragon's breath if faced with such a legendary Dragon .
Felina shook her head . "No, no, we don't need you to fight directly . We just want to use your attainments in spatial magic and your deep insight into magic . "
After a short pause, Felina said with slight embarra.s.sment, "Actually, you're not the only mortal we invited . People from other races have also accepted the invitation…If you can help, the queen will reward you handsomely . "
These words a.s.sured Link .
This trip was dangerous, but Isendilan was a big demon king who could easily destroy the world if he wanted . Link should help however he could . Plus, the Red Dragon Queen was generous and wouldn't let him work for free .
"Alright, I'll do my best . " Link nodded, agreeing to it .
"Thank you . I believe in your wisdom . " Felina was happy that Link did not reject the request .
From what she knew, many of the geniuses of other races were upset at the invitation . Their reason was simple—this was the Dragons' problem, so the Dragon race should solve it . It had nothing to do with them, and they had a bunch of things to deal with in their own race . They had no time!
Only half of the invitations were successful .
The journey was long . In order to save her energy for the rest, Felina stopped talking . Link had some free time . "Go on alert," he told Nana who was behind him . "I want to rest . "
"Understood . " Nana immediately started looking left and right vigilantly .
Link found a comfortable position and closed his eyes . He summoned the flame spell books in his vision and began reading . After studying them for five or six days, he had a general understanding of the three books .
The first one, Essence of the Flame, was purely theoretical . The second, Flame and Purification, was about specific application techniques . The third, Slayer of Demons, introduced an abnormally advanced flame spell .
The spell was a bit odd . From the surface, it was a Level-8 spell, but it involved some power of the flame laws . In reality, it was a semi-Legendary spell!
Another name for a Legendary spell was a law spell .
The more advanced a Legendary spell was, the deeper the understanding and grasp of the world's laws were . The Legendary Pinnacle represented that a Magician's understanding of a type of law had reached the Heavenly Realm .
At this time, t.i.tles such as dominator or lord would be added . For example, the Storm Lord from the prehistoric times had an unbelievable understanding of the wind laws .
Of these three flame spell books, Link thought, the third is a spell, the second is supreme magic skills, and the first is a theory outline…The theory is too long, and the skills require a specific spell to bear it . I'll start with the Slayer of Demons then!
Link changed the order of his research and started scanning the Slayer of Demons first . The first page had a specific introduction to the spell .
Demon Slayer
Level-8 Flame Law Spell
Basic cost: 50 Mana Points per second
Battle cost: Number of attack points* 400
Effect: Summons a 300-foot-long flame whip with both fire and solid characteristics . Within 300 feet, this flame whip can change shape at the thought of the summoner . When it shakes, each wave is a point of attack . The stronger the user is, the more attack points there are .
(Note: this spell can be so powerful it makes the enemy fall into despair, but it can also turn into a joke . )
The spell's description was complicated . Link thought for a while, and the specific appearance of the Demon Slayer spell appeared in his mind .
It was a long whip made of fire . Strength spread through the whip, and it was shaken into an S-shape . The peaks and troughs of the waves were the strongest points . It had the attack power of a Level-8 spell .
Theoretically, a long whip could have countless attack points from a shake . Of course, this was impossible because then the Mana cost would be terrifying . Link's Mana had increased to 8500 points, but if each attack point was 400 Mana points, he only had enough for 20 attacks .
However, 20 Level-8 attacks was already very imposing . If he added various supreme magic skills, this spell could become undefeatable by spells of the same level!
Even more tempting was that this spell didn't require summoning flame elements . Its power came from a certain flame law . This bypa.s.sed the restrictions of Elemental Rejection .
Then let's start learning . Link focused and began reading seriously .
A Level-8 spell was very advanced, but it wasn't hard to understand with Link's current attainment in magic . When he ran into something he truly didn't understand, he would look for the answer in the Essence of the Flame . He used each as reference and confirmation for the other .
Time flew by as he was deeply focused .
After a while, Link suddenly realized that Felina was descending and he snapped back into reality . "What, we're here…Oh, you're resting?"
"We aren't even one-third the way there . You've rested, but I'm exhausted . " There was some resentment in Felina's voice . She had just recovered from a serious injury . Now, someone's sleeping on her back while she had to cross the entire mainland . The difference in treatment was too big .
There was a boundless gra.s.sland below them . It was the Golden Plains in the western part of the mainland . There were apparently many Beastmen here, but Link hadn't seen any sign of them nearby .
From the distance, the gra.s.sland had a clear view and was very safe . After landing, Felina rested for half a day before setting off again .
During that time, Link took out his book to read . When he returned to Felina's back, he continued resting with his eyes closed but was actually studying the book in his vision .
They flew and stopped . By the time of the third rest, it was the evening of the second day . "We're already at the Colorado Mountain Range," Felina said . "The Red Dragon Valley is in these mountains, and we have around 300 miles left . This time, I must rest longer because there might be dangers during the rest of the journey . "
"Alright . " Link nodded and took out a book again . He was halfway done with it . Though there was still a long way to go to grasp the Demon Slayer spell, he had learned much and found it interesting to read .
The two rested in a low cave away from the wind . Link took out the travel blankets that Celine had prepared for him . He gave one to Felina and used one himself .
Felina was clearly exhausted . She wrapped the blanket around herself and fell asleep quickly . Link continued reading while Nana knelt at the entrance . She grasped her short sword and maintained alert .
At midnight, Link was tired too . He ate some dry food and prepared to rest . Just then, Nana moved and whispered, "Master, there are footsteps . "
Link heard them too . The footsteps were light and steady . The person was probably a pa.s.serby who hadn't noticed them . "We'll see," he whispered .
This was the barren Colorado Mountain Range at midnight . Appearing here at this time was most likely for a reason . They must be cautious .
