Chapter 9: Chapter 9: Land, Help!

“Help! Help! Land! Fiona! Save me!! Someone’s trying to kill a dragon!”

At this moment, a tense and urgent shout rang out.

It startled two young dragons awake, who then looked towards the source of the sound.

They saw Ed, the Little Black Dragon, rushing towards them at an incredible speed!

It was really fast.

Like a runaway horse.

It’s hard to believe that this was a Little Black Dragon just entering the young dragon stage.

The strangest thing was that a black arrow was protruding from behind the Little Black Dragon!

The arrow swayed back and forth as it ran.

Blood kept flowing from the dragon’s rear.

Yet, the Little Black Dragon surprisingly ignored it and ran so fast!

“Land! Fiona! Come quickly and save me! A human intruder is here! They want to kill me! Help!”

The Little Black Dragon quickly ran behind Land, his face full of terror.

“A human? Where is Mother? Isn’t she protecting you?” Land was stunned, then grew even more uneasy.

“Mother is fighting human adventurers. Those guys are so powerful! Mother was entangled and couldn’t protect me! One of them is directly chasing me!

It’s terrifying! Human adventurers!!” The Little Black Dragon shivered, showing fear in his eyes.

“Coward! Afraid of just one human adventurer? Where is that adventurer? Let me handle him!”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Female Dragon Fiona showed disdain and spat a mouthful of hot phlegm in the Little Black Dragon’s face.

“You!” The Little Black Dragon was furious: “Alright! If you’re so strong, you go ahead! That human is coming! Look! Here he comes! If you dare, then go kill him!”

As the Little Black Dragon finished speaking, sensing a commotion in the distance, he looked back in fear to the direction from which he had fled.

Land and the Xiao Female Dragon looked over.

They saw a blond man, dressed in leather armor and holding a bow and arrow, standing not far away. This man also had a dagger and a magic wand tucked at his waist.

This all-purpose outfit made him somewhat resemble a ranger in their impression.

He looked to be around thirty-four or thirty-five years old.

“Wow! Wow! Wow! Look at what I found?

Two young dragons and an odd dragon? Are you a family? It’s genuinely delightful to meet you!”

This seeming ranger grinned with joy.

And why wouldn’t he be happy!

After all, before him were three dragons!

Except for the one slightly larger, possibly a juvenile dragon, the other two appeared to be newly hatched young dragons!

To adventurers, this is truly treasure!

Giant Dragons are the top creatures in this world, but they only display their might when they mature.

The Five-Colored Evil Dragons are cruel and fierce, treating humans as ants, and quite a number even devour humans, making them one of humanity’s great enemies.

No matter how strong a creature is, there was a time when they were young and weak.

The Five-Colored Dragons at the hatchling stage haven’t fixed their character and may be tamed and nurtured by other races.

In all the kingdoms on the continent, there are always one or two lucky ones who meet young Giant Dragons, become friends, and end up achieving greatness, as rumors and chronicles tell.

Although the proportion of Five-Colored Dragons is very small,

they do exist.

Some great nobles from the kingdoms have even offered extravagant bounties to purchase newly hatched young dragons or dragon eggs.

They are more valuable than adult dragons!

Of course, these trades are conducted secretly and in the shadows.

If anyone dared to trade Giant Dragons openly, the proud dragons,

whether Five-Colored Dragons, Metal Dragons, or Gem Dragons, would surely teach these who dared to regard them as goods a good lesson!

The man spoke in the common language of the continent, which Land and the three dragons could all understand.

They also understood his implication.

This made the three dragons’ faces fall slightly.

The Xiao Female Dragon immediately roared with anger: “Human! You insult the Giant Dragon!

I will make you regret having this thought! Tremble under the great power of the Red Dragon King! Fiona!”

With that said, the Xiao Female Dragon charged at the human!

Her speed was a bit slower than the Little Black Dragon’s, but her larger build lent some majesty to her charge!

“Wow! Such a scary Evil Dragon～”

This human mocked with a strange tone, skillfully raising a hand and shooting an arrow, the arrow traveling swiftly and striking the front limb of the Xiao Female Dragon almost in the blink of an eye!

The arrowhead pierced the scale armor, with a swish, the entire arrowhead embedded itself in the flesh!

“Wow-ow!!!!”

The Xiao Female Dragon let out a painful cry and nearly stumbled, but managed to stabilize herself by force.

A trace of horror emerged in her eyes, and without hesitation, she turned and fled!

As she ran, she shouted:

“Land! Land! Help! This human is so skilled! His bow and arrow pierced my scales in one strike! It hurts! Save me! Land!”

The Xiao Female Dragon’s voice carried a hint of weeping, like a puppy being bullied, running towards Land.

“Useless coward!”

Seeing this, Land cursed, but in his mind, he regarded the human before him with more respect.

Though still a young dragon, the Xiao Female Dragon’s scales,

are about 2-3 millimeters thick, and their true hardness rivals that of 1-2 millimeter thick iron plates generally!

Such incredible defense was still easily pierced through?

There must be something wrong with that arrowhead!

While the two dragons spoke, they used the dragon language, which the ranger could not understand, not knowing what Land and Fiona were talking about.

But upon seeing Fiona crying and running back, he couldn’t help but laugh loudly:

“Hahaha! You little dragon are truly amusing! Just a slight wound and you cry like this! If you are so afraid, then surrender and acknowledge me as your master! I, Poli, can swear to the Dragon God! I will definitely treat you well!”

“Land! Land! Look at this human! How arrogantly he belittles us! You must properly teach him a lesson for me!”

The Xiao Female Dragon cried as she ran.

About to reach Land’s side, she dove, aiming to hug his leg.

But Land quickly extended a claw, grabbing her head mid-air and throwing her aside as if discarding trash: “You waste! Stay on the side!”

With that, without even glancing at the Xiao Female Dragon, he kicked back with his hind legs and charged at the human without further words!

His strength was immense, with just a kick from his hind legs, he shot forward like a bullet!

His speed was no slower than the Little Black Dragon’s, and with his massive frame, he resembled a high-speed tank, far more imposing than the likes of the Xiao Female Dragon!

“Wow! Such astonishing momentum!”

The human male exclaimed, raising his hand to shoot an arrow at Land.
