Red dragon: in charge of natural disasters

Outside of North Wind Castle, Iron Dragon Wing Palace.

Cassius lay quietly on the ground, his huge dragon body rising and falling with his breathing, and sulfurous smoke filled the palace.

The current red dragon is nearly 40 meters long from head to tail. Even the palace, which was built to be exceptionally wide, is still a bit narrow for him now.

"Huh"

"Finally I'm going to be promoted, it's time for harvest."

Cassius yawned, exhaled a mouthful of sulfurous white smoke, and then supported the ground with his strong limbs and tail, and slowly climbed up.

The red dragon stared at the panel in front of him, and a hint of joy appeared in his light golden pupils.

[You get 200xp]

[You get 100xp]

[You get 900xp]

Since the opening of the experience store and the Undead Research Institute, Cassius's experience has increased exceptionally rapidly, and hundreds of thousands of players in the empire are continuously handing in experience for him.

Although the amount each time is very small for him, it is too large and frequent.

In addition, he devoured many fire giants in the fire elemental plane, killed two emirs, and even killed a pasha with his own hands.

Only a few months have passed. Even with the ancestral dragon template that can be called an "experience black hole", Cassius has accumulated enough experience for the next upgrade and is about to usher in the next enhancement.

[You get 900xp]

[Your total occupation level is increased to 19]

[Your current occupation is-True Dragon Warlock 15/Blood Scale Berserker 3]

Cassius still made a choice without hesitation. Even if the curse is not considered, the True Dragon Warlock has a precious opportunity to improve attributes at level 16.

[You choose to upgrade [True Dragon Warlock] to level 16]

[Since the dragon race is born to cast spells, your current caster level is: 21]

[When you reach level 16 in this profession, you get 2 legendary attribute points (which can increase more than 20 attributes) and can arbitrarily increase one attribute value of your choice. ]

Suddenly, Cassius's breathing became a little rapid.

In fact, in the process of defeating the fire giant, he also received several new achievements, such as [Fire Giant Devourer] and [Ferocious Infamy].

But those [Red Copper]-level achievements are insignificant to him now, and can't even make up a complete attribute point.

With Cassius's current unevenness, it is extremely difficult to improve a little bit, and even to reach the demigod level.

And now, he can finally improve again.

[You choose to improve: Charisma]

[Charisma: 33→35]

The caster's level and the ability to influence external output are improved at the same time, which brings an effect far beyond his imagination.

The surrounding magic nets seem to be trembling, resonating, and cheering the birth of this new high-level controller.

In an instant, Cassius seemed to see the sea of ​​​​phlogiston outside the crystal wall, and the material planes that were like bubbles floating on the sea, and felt the source of magic that was far greater than the magic net.

"Original."

"This universe is far more magnificent than I imagined. This is another new dimension."

Even in the previous life, no player could achieve such a terrifying single-item casting attribute and such a high caster level - but Cassius did it.

But soon, the greedy dragon came back to his senses from the distant and grand reverie, staring at the panel with his pale golden eyes, praying for the high-level spells that were about to appear.

The source of magic?

The secret of the universe?

He is not a wizard who explores mysteries, but just a magic barbarian. These illusory things are not as important as the spells he has obtained.

[You get the 9th-ring dragon spell - [Dragon's Magic Plunder]]

[Dragon's Magic Plunder (Dragon Reaving)]

9th-ring protective spell

[Mage always laughs at warlocks by dispelling magic, but they don't know that tens of thousands of years ago, dragons created this spell to kill annoying Titan priests.

This spell is similar to advanced dispel magic. The caster can transfer the dispel or counter spell effect to himself, as if he cast it himself. ]

"Dispel magic?"

"What a good start. They actually drew out this high-level protection spell."

For dragons that have no shortage of energy output, most of the evocation spells are useless, and the necromancy system is only useful for special dragons such as shadow dragons.

The role of protection, conjuration, change, and illusion is much greater.

In high-level, single-unit spell contests, large-scale spells rarely appear on both sides. Tsunami spells against meteor explosions are extremely cost-effective.

To use a common joke in the previous life, both sides often "I invalidate your spells, I cancel your invalidation, and I counter your dispel", which can be called the ultimate nesting doll.

And Cassius is particularly satisfied with this [Dragon's Magic Plunder].

"So, what about the second one?"

[You get the 7th-level dragon spell - [Dragon's Simulacrum]

[Dragon's Simulacrum]

7th-level illusion spell

[Consume a certain amount of materials and experience to create a copy of a creature. The copy has half the overall strength of the original, the same abilities, absolutely obeys you, and can share senses and memories with you.]

"Simulacrum!"

Kaxiu's eyes widened immediately, his expression full of joy.

If the God of Destiny really exists, and is not in this crystal wall system, he might have been personally favored today.

Simulacrum is also a very versatile spell.

It can create a copy with half the strength of the original body, with the same abilities and shared consciousness.

He finally doesn't have to do everything himself!

——Although this red dragon was not diligent in the first place, he rarely cared about it unless it was something that his followers couldn't solve.

A familiar feeling came, and the vast knowledge of spells suddenly flooded into his mind.

For Kasius now, even learning the nine-ring spell is just a matter of a few breaths.

Kasius first created a flaming ball and placed it in front of him, then stretched out his claws, making it flash with the aura of the spell, and cast the new nine-ring spell.

[Magic plunder of the dragon]

"Shua——"

An invisible force appeared on the flaming ball, and it suddenly became dim and then dissipated.

And the sphere reappeared in the palm of the red dragon.

"Is this plunder?"

"Then try the simulacrum again."

Casius stretched out his claws and waved, tearing the space, taking out a large amount of gold coins and elemental ores from his treasure house, and then easily cast a spell.

[Dragon Shadow Simulacrum]

A glimmer of light came, and suddenly, a figure exactly the same as himself appeared behind Casius - except that the figure was much more illusory, as ethereal as a mirage.

Then, Casius felt his power being "transmitted" or more precisely "copied" into this phantom.

"It's a wonderful feeling to have a copy of myself."

The red dragon looked at the gradually solidified figure, and at the same time, he was also observing his original body through the perspective of that figure.

It was obviously a consciousness, but it could be shared in two bodies, and even a copy could be created - those dragon sorcerer ancestors could be said to be the originators of the concept of "consciousness uploading" of the Mechanicus.

Cassius took back the thought, and the simulacrum returned to the form of a "robot", with no other movements except obeying orders.

He did not complete the simulacrum, but only input one-tenth of the power of the original body into it, and it would dissipate in a few months.

This is just an experiment.

"But this simulacrum cannot be wasted, so send it to find the devil in the Anstica Mountains."

The red dragon simulacrum received the order, walked out of the palace, flapped its wings vigorously, and flew towards the Anstica Mountains in the south.

- This greedy red dragon even oppressed its own shadow. (End of this chapter)
