From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

At this time, Alves was almost catching up with the Dragon Knight reconnaissance team in front.

But as he flew, the scene in front of him suddenly changed.

The original mountain forest terrain has disappeared, replaced by a withered swamp.

In the middle of the swamp, the Great Sage Asmat stood there blankly.

Compared to the jade dragon, which is dozens of meters long, Asmat, who is only about 1.67 meters tall, is as tall as a small ant.

"Oh? Are you Asmat? The strongest person in this world?"

Alves has never met Asmat, but according to the information provided by Krober, the only one among the lizardmen who can influence him is the great sage Asmat.

"Alves Emerald Light, the most benevolent ruler in another world, I am honored to meet you."

Asmat did not feel embarrassed at all when his identity was discovered. Instead, he took a step forward, bowed, and greeted politely.

"That's interesting. What are you trying to do?"

Alves sneered, not intending to challenge him at all, and signaled the Emerald Dragon through the spiritual contract to be ready for battle at any time, and not to be plotted by the enemy due to negligence.

The Emerald Dragon rolled his eyes speechlessly, muttering to himself.

When it finds an opportunity later, it will definitely hit Alves without any hesitation.

In terms of age, the Emerald Dragon is older than the three generations of the Emerald Light royal family combined, but Alves always talks to it like a child.

The Emerald Dragon has experienced countless battles and has eaten more meals than Alves!

...well, maybe a little less.

But it would never make such a stupid mistake.

Alves asked him to be on guard, but he had no intention of doing so.

It had no intention of communicating or wasting time with the tiny lizard man in front of it, and directly sprayed the opponent with a breath of dragon breath.

Only a loud noise was heard, Asmat's body was instantly blown to pieces, and the ground under his feet turned into a huge pit.

When Alves saw this, he couldn't help but sneered:

"That's it? Why do you call yourself a great sage? Krobo actually said before that this enemy has some strength, but in the end he couldn't even withstand one of Jade's dragon breaths."

Then, he used his powerful mental power to scan the surroundings and determined that there were no more signs of living life around him.

Just when Alves was about to leave this place, a new figure slowly formed from the soil next to the pit.

He turned out to be the great sage Asmat whose body had been shattered.

"Alves...Your Majesty? That should be the title, right?"

After Asmat's figure was condensed, he slowly patted the dust on his body and continued:

"I am just a useless clone created by the main body through magic. I have no combat effectiveness at all. My mission is to use the magic to stay here to contain you. If you attack a clone, it will not affect this The operation of the technique.”

At this time, Asmat's body was still in the Quiet Death Technique, and this illusion formation was one of his special methods to hold back Alves.

"Spell?"

It was the first time that Alves heard this unfamiliar term, but he quickly guessed that it should be something similar to the magic of his original world.

"Yes, this is the technique."

Asmat smiled and explained:

“It is a specific application of power that can be exerted in specific ways and with specific materials.”

"Anyone with a certain amount of soul power can learn and master this power."

Alves frowned:

"So, do you all use this so-called technique to fight?"

Asmat shook his head:

"That's not all the case. Everyone's abilities and fighting styles are different, but spells are indeed a common method we use."

Alves secretly thought to himself that if this was their fighting style, then he must understand and adapt to it as soon as possible.

Otherwise, facing these unknown enemies, we will fall into a passive situation.

"In that case, let me see what is so powerful about this technique!"

A trace of determination flashed in Alves' eyes, and he decided to challenge Asmat's technique head-on to understand its power and characteristics.

"??"

Asmat's clone frowned.

"Did you misunderstand something?"

"ah?"

"I told you just now, I have no fighting ability, and this illusory formation is just to delay you. As long as you break this illusory formation, you can naturally leave here."

Asmat's clone felt a little speechless. It seemed to understand why the main body had to create it.

Just like the guiding NPC!

Huh?

What is guiding NPC?

Why did this concept pop into my head?

"Huh? Isn't it?"

Alves rubbed his head with a headache.

He is just a knight who only knows how to ride a dragon and fight. To him, magic means he knows all about it - he knows nothing about it!

The Emerald Kingdom also has many magicians.

There are also many master-level beings among them.

But the problem is, he didn't bring those magicians to participate in the war this time!

"Forget it, just rely on yourself."

Alvis made up his mind to study this so-called "ritual" carefully.

After studying it for about a minute, he handed this important task to the Emerald Dragon.

"....."

"I really want to break the contract with you!!"

The Emerald Dragon raised its right front paw, considering whether to give Alvis a slap.

However, after careful consideration, it decided to focus on removing the illusion.

While they were breaking the illusion, the two dragon knight reconnaissance teams encountered a crisis.

————

"No way, why is the attack of this mist dragon ineffective!"

Quartz Dragon Knight Kugel said with a heavy breath.

Ocean consciousness is above!

He Kugel really tried his best!

He used dragon breath, melee, and blood power.

But the mist dragon on the opposite side was not hurt at all!

Every time his attack was about to touch the opponent, the opponent's body would suddenly dissipate.

Fighting back and forth, they consumed a lot of physical strength and magic power.

"No.....Why do I feel a little confused?"

Kugel's magic power consumption was relatively high, so he left the battle group in advance and ran to the back to recover his physical strength and magic power.

But as time went on, he found that his magic power recovery speed slowed down by nearly half, and his head still had a sense of chaos.
