Chapter 1: Opening! Ninety-Nine Dragon Eggs!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Oh.”

Mike opened his eyes gently and found himself lying in a shabby castle.

“Where… where am I?”

Mike sat up and muttered.

He rubbed his head and vaguely remembered that he was in the internet cafe, playing this game called ‘Castle Time’.

This game was popular at the time. Whether it was in the country or abroad, more and more people were playing this game.

Suddenly, the internet cafe was pitch black. Then, a ray of light shone in. When he opened his eyes again, he was lying in the castle.

“Did I travel through time?”

Mike looked around. The style of the castle was very similar to the architectural style of medieval Western Europe, but it was not luxurious. Instead, it looked shabby, as if no one had lived in it for many years. It was a little old.

While Mike was still observing his surroundings, a voice suddenly came from his mind.

“Welcome to the Otherworld Continent!”

“Here, you are going to have a race competition.”

“This race competition is absolutely fair and just.”

“And each of you will be randomly given a castle and an initial soldier, which will allow you to plunder resources and develop your forces!”

“In this vast world filled with tens of thousands of races, it is filled with endless opportunities and challenges!”

“You will use your identity as the Castle Lord to bring your army unit to begin your struggle for hegemony!”

“The one who eventually becomes the Overlord will have the possibility of obtaining power and status or even eternal life…”

…

Not long after, the voice in Mike’s head disappeared…

However, Mike could not calm down at all. He frowned and thought deeply

“Race competition?”

“This seems to be similar to the game I play.”

“Sigh, I’m just playing games in the internet cafe. I didn’t expect to travel to this cruel foreign world.”

“Since I’m here, I’ll just take it as it is.”

Let’s see where the castle is first!

Mike walked out of the castle.

There was a courtyard outside the castle, and it was surrounded by a forest. He could hear countless bird calls coming from the forest, and from time to time, there would be roars similar to that of wild beasts.

It seemed that his castle was located in a forest, and he raised his head to look at the sky.

The weather was gloomy, and not a single cloud could be seen. It gave people a very strong sense of oppression.

Mike took a deep breath of fresh air.

“Phew, this is too depressing!”

The yard was also quite shabby. There was nothing else except for a small cave building.

Mike walked towards the building and looked at it carefully. It looked like a dragon nest.

At this time, an information simulation board appeared in Mike’s field of vision.

[Initial building: Dragon nest (unique).]

[Initial level: Level 1.]

[Contains 99 dragon eggs.]

[Inferno Dragon, Frost Dragon, Sapphire Dragon, Undead Bone Dragon…]

[Inferno Dragon: its entire body is red. It has scales that are as hard as metal. It has eyes that are like lava. It has wings on its back. It has four legs. Its head looks like a horse but has horns.]

[Sapphire Dragon: its entire body is blue…]

[…]

[Required to level up and hatch. 100 energy stones, one strange crystal.]

[PS: Level 1 Dragon’s nest. Only one can hatch randomly.]

“Dragon’s Nest!”

“Unique military structure!”

“In that case, my initial military type is a giant dragon, and there are 99 of them!”

Mike’s breathing quickened, and his pupils constricted.

Just based on that ‘uniqueness’ alone, it was clear that there was only one type of giant dragon in the entire Otherworld continent, and it was definitely a top-tier army! Moreover, giant dragons were also a sacred existence in western mythology, and their strength was extremely powerful!

Mike was extremely excited.

“Hahaha, I don’t even need 99 giant dragons. Give me 10 or 20 of them, and it won’t be a problem for me to dominate this Otherworld Continent!”

“Moreover, my initial army is already so strong. This means that my starting point is much higher than the other Castle Lords.”

“With this dragon nest, I will definitely be able to dominate this foreign land and take a look at the so-called eternal life.”

At this moment, the voice from before sounded in his mind again:

“All Castle Lords.”

“From now on, you will receive seven days of novice protection.”

“During the novice protection period, there will be a protective shield protecting your castle.”

“After seven days, the protective shield will disappear, and you will face the first test of the initial beast tide. The Beast Tide will sweep through the territory of all the Castle Lords.”

“Once the castle heart is destroyed, you will lose the chance to fight for hegemony, gain power and status, or even live forever…”

Suddenly, a faint golden barrier enveloped Mike’s castle.

Mike looked at the barrier: beginner’s barrier, effect — invincible!

“Phew, looks like this alternate world won’t give you any time to rest!”

“The beginner’s protection period will end in seven days, time is tight!”

“And the Beast Tide, we have to get through it, or else we will die!”

Mike instantly felt a sense of urgency.

Mike’s gaze turned to the dragon nest again. This was the capital to get through this Beast Tide!

A level 1 dragon nest could only hatch one giant dragon. It seemed like he had to find a way to increase the level of the dragon nest so that he could have the strength.

When Mike’s gaze was fixed on the dragon nest, a burst of intense white light was emitted.

An information template appeared in Mike’s field of vision

[Dragon nest’s energy value is abundant.]

[Do you want to hatch the dragon egg?]

[Yes][No]

“Yes”

“Hatch the dragon egg immediately.”

Mike said without hesitation.

Right now, the outside was full of danger. With the army, he could survive in this forest.

[Ding, hatching the dragon’s egg.]

…

Not long after, Mike saw a green dragon head drill out from the crack of the dragon’s egg.

Then, there was a roar.

A whole body came out.

It flapped its wings and hovered above Mike’s head.

With this dragon roar, many birds flew in the surrounding forest. Even the roars of beasts quieted down.

After circling a few times, it landed in front of Mike.

It knelt on all fours and lowered its head,

“My Lord…”

In the heart of the Green Dragon, Mike was the one who hatched him. That was his master. He was extremely loyal to Mike.

Mike looked at the Green Dragon in front of him.

A message template appeared in his field of vision

[Nightmare Green Dragon.]

[Living in the forest, the king of the forest.]

[Growth stage: infant stage (Tier 2, level 1)]

[Ability: able to spray lethal venom.]

[Loyalty: 100 (Die-hard)]

[PS: the growth stage of the giant dragon is divided into infant stage (tier 1 – tier 3), mature stage (tier 4 – tier 6), complete stage (tier 7 – tier 9), three stages, one stage is divided into ten levels!]

“Only tier 2, level 1, my strength is a bit low!”

“However, to be able to reach tier 9 after becoming a complete stage is already very powerful. It is already infinitely close to being a god.”

“The power of a god is level ten. Does it mean that as long as I can reach level ten, I will be able to obtain eternal life?”
