Beyond the mountain top, a continuous chain of volcanoes lies quietly under the vast sky, occasionally emitting thick black smoke. Victor furrowed his brow, his gaze darting between the volcanoes.
Among the volcano group, the volcano where Dragon Mother Cave is located is the tallest, with constantly surging magma, symbolizing this mountain range.
Victor knows well that Mother of Dragons was once the ruler of this mountain range, and every plant, mountain, and stone here belonged to her. She could command the wind and rain, but she preferred to be alone, without any followers.
"Ah, just a few days after birth, my mother went to the front line to fight. The world is so unpredictable." Victor gazed at the endless expanse of volcanoes, feeling a hint of melancholy in his heart.
When Mother of Dragons was here, this mountain range could still maintain order; but now that she's gone, various monsters will surely continue to fight for territory. Victor deeply understands that his current situation is extremely dangerous. If Mother of Dragons's enemy were to find out that he is still here, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Thinking of this, Victor couldn't help but shiver. In order to safely pass through the developmental period, he must find a place with abundant food, safety, and easy escape as a habitat.
After careful observation, Victor found a small basin in the southeast, lush and vibrant. He was moved and said to himself, "Where there is green, there is life, and where there is life, there is food. That's the place!"
However, the distance from the top of the mountain to the basin is far and the terrain is steep. Victor couldn't help but feel hesitant:
"What if I wait to go through two growth periods here before setting off? After all, the influence of the Mother of Dragons still lingers, and most magical beasts wouldn't dare to approach easily."
"Chirp!"
Just as Victor was hesitating, a loud bird call echoed from the mountainside.
" thunderbird !"
He was startled and immediately recognized it as the call of a thunderbird.
thunderbird feeds on natural lightning and naturally contains thunder in its body. It may be hard for ordinary people to swallow, but to the eyes of the dragon race, it tastes like a tingling sensation of thunder. For this reason, the Mother of Dragons once kept a group of thunderbird as appetizers before a big meal on the mountainside.
"If these thunderbird knew their current situation, they would probably consider themselves as snacks before the main course."
Victor stood by the edge of the volcano, feeling the heat waves emanating from the magma, yet his heart was as cold as ice. He understood that if he stayed here, it would be like waiting for death, but if he risked going down the mountain, he might fall into the siege of the thunderbird. In this dilemma, he fell into deep contemplation.
Victor stood at the edge of a cave in a different world, feeling an indescribable despair: "Am I to perish here just as I have set foot in this unfamiliar land, before I have even begun my own legendary saga?"
At that moment, the edge of the cave beneath his feet appeared to be on the verge of collapse due to long-term magma erosion, compounded by Victor's misstep.
"Crack!"
Victor lost his balance in an instant and fell straight down from a great height.
"Ahh! Help me!"
He flapped his wings in panic, but felt no assistance from the wind.
In fact, dragon may have huge wings, but they cannot fly solely with them. They rely on innate magic, a mysterious power that allows them to soar through the sky.
However, Victor has now grown to use this magic. All his struggles are in vain, and he can only watch himself falling helplessly.
"If I really fall to the ground, I'm afraid I will turn into a lump of flesh." Victor felt the wind whistling past his cheeks, his heart filled with endless sorrow.
He had a thought in his mind: "Perhaps I will become the first dragon in the history of the dragon clan to die from a fall. My name 'Victor' will be forever engraved in the heritage of the dragon clan, becoming a shame for the new young dragons to beware of." He closed his eyes in despair, waiting for the arrival of death.
However, with a "peng" sound, the excruciating pain that Victor had imagined did not come. He opened his eyes in astonishment, realizing that he had not been shattered as he had expected.
"Uh, I'm not dead yet?" Victor was pleasantly surprised. He had thought his soul was bound for heaven, but miraculously, he had survived. He cautiously reached out and touched the soft object beneath him.
"This texture... it's so soft. Did I land on a pile of grass?" Victor muttered to himself in confusion, then he felt an unusual warmth.
"Huh, there's still warmth? What kind of grass could have this kind of warmth?" Victor was even more confused. He grabbed a handful with force, but only caught a handful of feathers.
"Who dares disturb this lord's nap?" a furious shout suddenly rang out, breaking the surrounding silence. Victor looked up and saw a thunderbird crackling with electricity, glaring angrily at him.
thunderbird looked around and found the culprit to be Victor, the little dragon. It saw Victor holding its own feathers, which made it furious.
This thunderbird is named Chi Lei, it feeds on lightning and has a hot temper. Being woken up by Victor at this moment made it uncontrollably angry. It flapped its wings, causing a shower of stones, many of which hit Victor.
"Whose little dragon is this? How dare you pluck this old man's feathers, do you not want to live?" Chi Lei threatened fiercely, spreading its wings like a ferocious beast.
Other thunderbirds heard the commotion and gathered around, flapping their wings to release powerful lightning, forming a web of thunder that trapped Victor within.
"It's really fresh, to have Little Dragon actively delivered to our door," a thunderbird licked its beak and said.
"Usually we're all caught and eaten by that mother dragon, but today we can also taste dragon meat," another thunderbird added excitedly.
"Kid, even if you're a young dragon, you can't escape the electric net we've created together. Be smart and just kill yourself, to avoid suffering from the electric shock later!" Another thunderbird threatened.
Victor felt the anger and hostility from the thunderbirds, and he knew he had to quickly come up with a way to deal with this situation. He swallowed hard, his mind racing to think of an escape plan.
"Do you know who I am? How dare you make a fuss here!" Victor came up with a clever idea.
He decided to use the reputation of Mother of Dragons to intimidate these thunderbird.
"You are from which family's Little Dragon is of no use. With us here, even if your family's elders come, they won't be able to leave alive," the thunderbirds replied disdainfully.
The thunderbirds have the proud capital. Their strength is extraordinary. Among this group, there are several birds that are almost legendary. When they join forces, not to mention ordinary legends, even the average dragon legend would fall at their hands.
However, the sharp-eyed thunderbird has already vaguely guessed Victor's identity, and even sensed a familiar aura from Victor.
"Wait, he couldn't be..." one of the thunderbirds hesitantly said.
"He is what? With us joining forces, who else in this area should we fear?" Another thunderbird said in confusion.
But Victor had already learned from the inherited memories of Mother of Dragons that this group of thunderbirds had no chance against Mother of Dragons, giving him the opportunity to bluff.
Victor put on airs and said, "Haha, don't you know who I am? It seems that my mother hasn't visited for a long time, causing you guys to forget her prestige!" The birds, hearing his arrogant words, couldn't help but stare at Victor carefully.
That similar appearance, that arrogant tone, it's just like their top demon king.
Chi Lei at this point no longer had its previous arrogance and stammered, "Could it be that your mother is... Lady Lilith?"
Victor nodded and said affirmatively, "That's right."
"My mother is Lily!"
Chi Lei and the other thunderbirds all had a sudden change in expression upon hearing this name. Lily is their top demon king, and they still hold her name in awe, as they were all once considered as ingredients for her meals.
