Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 505 - You Need To Act Fast

"Ding! It wants you to let her enter your pearl."

"My pearl? What does this even mean?" Arthur asked in confusion.

"Ding! I also don't get what it wants, after all it speaks in a hard way to understand."

"Can't you ask it to send a picture to his mind? It is connected to his soul superficially so far," the golden dragon said before adding, "I believe it can do it."

"Just try and let's see if this works," Arthur said.

"Ding! Alright."

This time it took roughly half an hour before Arthur felt a strange presence inside his mind. It appeared faintly and swiftly left something there before it totally vanished the next instant. "Is this the garden's aura?" he muttered before examining what it was left for him.

"This…" when Arthur saw what was left, he was startled at first. It was a piece of a memory, a memory about the moment when he combined his two energies and formed that new form of superior energy inside his old dantian. "You want to merge yourself with this berserker?!!" he muttered.

"Ding! It says yes."

"…"

"This garden of yours is interesting," the golden dragon laughed, "I like its appetite and great aspiration. Selecting the highest form of energy inside your body to merge with, that's impressive."

"It's greedy, that's all," Arthur sighed before adding, "can it merge with this small piece of energy now?"

"Ding! It says this needs to be doubled, and this has to be done fast."

Arthur was speechless for a moment there. "How fast exactly?" he asked.

"Ding! Like in a day or two at most," the system said before adding, "it says it will help you in cultivating the spiritual energy when coming back, so you can break through faster."

Arthur didn't know what to say for a while.

"You should aim for that chance buddie, it's a very rare chance without doubt," the golden dragon spoke in such a strange wise tone.

"Can you just tell me what's the benefit of all this?" Arthur said before adding, "at least knowing the prize will make me exert more effort, right?"

"Honestly I don't know exactly the end of this," the golden dragon said these shocking words which made both Arthur and the system exclaim in shock. "All I know is this monster's energy is very beneficial to spiritual items, even turning a speck of dust into a dragon."

"Really?" Arthur was speechless there for a moment, "this is too much exaggeration, old dragon," he doubtedly added.

"This is an underestimation of what will truly happen," the golden dragon didn't mind the skeptical tone in Arthur's words, "just try to achieve this requirement and you won't be dissatisfied."

"Tsk," Arthur shook his head helplessly while adding, "it's not just about leveling up my cultivation base. You saw how much time and effort it took for me to reach this small piece of energy, right?"

"Ding! It says don't worry, you can start merging inside the trial world you are in. the circumstances there will help you a lot," the system suddenly conveyed this message.

"Sigh, even if I did that, I have little time remaining outside."

"Ding! It says don't worry and just return and start."

"Tsk," Arthur just shook his head before adding, "take me out, let me see what miracle is waiting for me there."

The next moment he was sent outside to appear again inside the desolate place of the fortress. The place was abandoned, destroyed, with nothing intact in there.

"Scan the area and see if there is anything useful there," Arthur muttered while waiting for his system to return with news.

"You know the sucker monster that killed me served the black dragonairs," the golden dragon suddenly said before adding, "it was rumored it was under the service of the silver dragons, and now I can tell these weren't just rumors."

"But I didn't control the monster or made it my pet!"

"Hahaha, you'll soon figure out everything," the golden dragon mysteriously said.

"Why don't cut the chase and directly say everything you know?" Arthur was annoyed with the golden dragon secrecy and attitude.

"Where is the fun in that?" the golden dragon laughed before adding, "besides all I know is just rumors of old times. I'm just hypothesizing they aren't all rumors."

"I'm not buying this," Arthur sighed.

"And I ain't telling you a thing," the golden dragon stubbornly said.

"…"

Arthur didn't speak again with his golden dragon even when the dragon kept harassing him about the knowledge he had.

"Ding! There is a strange egg inside this place," suddenly the system said, making Arthur surprised. "An egg?" he muttered, "like the one we got from the hands of those two disciples?"

"Ding! I believe so," the system said and his swift answer made Arthur curious. "What's all about these eggs?"

"Ding! I recommend we use the pillars again to seal it, but…" the system suddenly paused.

"But what?" Arthur asked.

"Ding! The garden refuses," the system said before adding, "Ding! It says something like it's already hard to keep one egg in check."

"These eggs are new even to me," the golden dragon muttered before adding, "can the garden link itself to this world? Or at least absorb it?"

"Great idea," Arthur's eyes shone before adding, "can it do that?"

This time the system took a long hour of silence before finally speaking, "Ding! It says after dealing with that enormous monster inside, it will be able to absorb this world. But this will take a long time."

"Then it can link a portal to here, right?"

"Ding! Correct."

"That's its plan then," Arthur finally began to read the garden's mind, "Like this I might be able to raise my base fast."

"Ding! It also agrees."

"It can hear us now?" Arthur was speechless.

"Ding! Anything related to your soul can hear you all the time," the system laughed like Arthur realized this a bit too late.

"Alright," Arthur smiled as he went outside, "let's leave this egg for later then."

As he went outside the fort, he was met with a brutal scene of fight everywhere. "These monsters… they must have portals somewhere to add all those numbers without showing any losses at all," Arthur sighed before heading towards the top of the hill as he added, "I don't have time for that. Send the word to the queen, make her look for those portals and try to seal them."

"Ding! I strongly recommend against this," the system said.

"Aiming to take them all inside our garden in the future?" Arthur understood his system's aim, "not bad. Alright, leave them be, and eventually they'll all belong to me."

When he reached the top of the hill, he noticed how similar it was to his. He sat there cross legged and started his training again.

Time flew quickly, and the end of the week came swiftly when he just broke through the eighth base.

"Rumble!"

The entire world shook, driving Arthur out of his training.

"Is it time already?" he muttered as he stood up and glanced all around. "Tsk, I couldn't clear all the monsters here.

"The trial is over," just before his system could respond, the majestic voice came again while adding, "no one managed to reign supreme over the other. So, the judge will be based on who killed much more than the other. The fighting shall stop now, and the results will be announced shortly after."

"Damn, I didn't know it would turn out to be a causality contest," Arthur wasn't satisfied with this.

"What else did you think it was about?" the golden dragon asked.

"Territory control," Arthur said, "I thought whoever gains more territory will win."

"It's not much different though," the golden dragon laughed, "your monsters killed more than your enemies did. Don't worry, you'll win this."

"I hope so," Arthur muttered as he impatiently waited for the results to be announced.
