Chapter 242: Dusk Dragon!
Ding dong!
(Prompt: You have created a severe trauma in the creature, and hence, the mark of Soul Control has been deeply imprinted into its psyche. The creature will be controlled by you forever, and it has occupied the fourth slot in Soul control.]
"It's so easy. I only tried 100 times, and yet, it succeeded." William smiled triumphantly.
Then he glanced at the dazed small Black Dragon that was lying on the ground drooling. The Dragon was like a moron.
"He's so useless. He can't withstand such a small test."
Moses looked at William, being speechless. William had to use Soul Control 100 times to control a small Dragon that had no levels. Was that a feat for bragging?
With the new addition, the four slots of Soul Control were now occupied by the Bloody Crusher, Bru (Silver-backed monkey BOSS), Thunder Horse King, and this small Black Dragon.
As for Marquis Chris, when Black Lava Dukedom defected to the City of Dawn, William freed the slot and released Marquis Chris from his control.
But the memories of Marquis Chris were still intact.
He knew that he had no power to change the situation, and it was fortunate that William did not kill him. He did not dare to revolt. He was content to hold onto his Marquis title.
It was in his best interest to serve Prince William.
He had been badly traumatized once, and that was enough...
As for the Dragons, initially, William had no intention to breed the Dragons as his pets. Dragons had their instinctive memory inheritances, so they could not be tamed. Contracts or Soul Control were the best ways to control them.
In other cases, it was hard to stay together with the Dragons for a long time.
Of course, the exceptions were the Silver Dragons...
After a few minutes, William noticed that the small Black Dragon had recovered, but he was still trembling. The small Black Dragon looked at William with his cute eyes, as though he had gone through unspeakable sufferings.
"Hey, do you know what Soul Control is? I know whatever you're thinking." William extended his hand to squeeze its neck, and then he started to beat up the poor creature.
"I'm your servant? Humans are slaves? Try letting your Dragon parents eat me. And they are leading thousands of Dragons to kill me? Do you think it's the first era? Take a look at me..." William scolded the small Dragon. As he was about to beat the victim the second time, he suddenly stopped.
Moses was enlightened when he heard William's words. He gave William an eye signal for him to finish the ordeal.
William picked up the small Black Dragon that was on the verge of dying and said, "From now on, your name is... Sacario!
The small Black Dragon did not want to shout out this name though it sounded nice.
Pa!
William slapped the small Black Dragon until he spun around in circles. Then William demanded, "Do you yield?"
No!
The small Black Dragon was acting tough!
So what if William used Soul Control? The small Dragon would not yield as he was not afraid of death.
Pa!
Pa, pa, pa, pa!
Ao!
After being slapped multiple times, the small Black Dragon extended its swollen claw to let William pause for a while.
"Ao, ao, ao, Sacario..." The small Black Dragon yielded.
Even though he had yielded, he did not do so full-heartedly.
When the Dragon would recognize his real name, his complete memory inheritance would surface from the deep end of its soul.
But at that instance, Moses froze time and space.
Both the small Black Dragon and William had been frozen.
It was time magic!
Moses was an all-rounded Enchanter. It was not a superficial title.
His control of time was far more powerful than other time enchanters. It was extremely difficult to control time.
A normal time enchanter could only slow down or hasten time. And even then, the effective radius would be limited.
But Moses' control of time had gone beyond normal expectations. He could even freeze time in a small effective area.
While the time was frozen, Moses immediately extracted the small Black Dragon's soul.
He found the memory inheritance of the Dragon.
It was important to note that the memory inheritance of a Dragon was precious and secret. The only time the Dragon was given the memory inheritance was when he was born and given the real name!
At other times, nobody could have a peek at the Dragon's memory inheritance!
This process reduced the chance of a Dragon losing its memory inheritance.
Normally, the Dragon would be born in a safe place. Even if the Dragon egg was picked up by others, it would not successfully incubate.
And even in the rare case of it incubating properly, there would not be a time enchanter around. The time enchanters were even rarer than the Great Dragons!
But who expected the City of Dawn to have a powerful all-rounded enchanter.
Moses activated his complex Soul magic for seven to eight seconds before he sent the soul back into the Dragon's body.
William was not aware of any changes. The small black Dragon accepted its amended memory inheritance instantly.
William discovered that the red-faced Moses was heavily panting. He did not know what Moses had done just now.
William did not say anything, and neither did he ponder.
But if he knew that Moses had frozen time for seven to eight seconds, he would have definitely exclaimed, "Time freeze!"
Moses did not plan to explain as he was exhausted. Moreover, he obtained valuable information from the memory inheritance of the small Black Dragon. He waved his hand to dismiss William.
The obedient William nodded. He grasped the small Black Dragon's neck and left.
In the next moment, William heard some more words.
"Take care of the Dragon, and let it grow fast. I have many uses for the Dragon's blood in the future."
William deeply frowned.
The small Black Dragon kicked its legs to show his strong objection. The Dragon did not yield and challenged William to kill him.
"Slap!"
William slapped the Dragon again.
The small Black Dragon was befuddled. He had lost vast memories regarding his parents and his clansmen. The small Black Dragon could only remember Humans as servants. It was a deep-rooted memory!
"Mmp, why is the servant abusing the master? My memory is faulty..."
William ignored the small Black Dragon.
He grasped the Dragon's head and ignored the kicking and flapping of the small Dragon as he walked back to the city lord's palace.
However, when the players saw William, they were dazed.
"D*mn!"
"It's a Great Dragon!"
"Let me use my insight!"
"It's a real Great Dragon!"
William also activated his insight.
(Sacario (Legendary)]
[Race: Dusk Dragon] [Level: 3 (Child)]
[Position Level: None]
(Endowment: Dragon's bite...]
(Endowment: Dragon's roar (A mental intimidation effect. Currently, there is no effect)...]
(Endowment: Dragon's breath (Fire element)
...]
(Endowment: Dragon's life, each Physical Strength confers 20 Health Points.]
[Endowment: Dragon's power, each Power Point conveys 20 Stamina and 1 attack point.)
(Health points: 1,820]
(Stamina: 1,100]
(Power: 55]
[Physical Strength: 91]
[Agility: 41)
[Intelligence: 38] [Others: ...]
That was right.
It was a level three Dragon possessing Legendary bloodline, who had eaten its eggshell and had 1,820 Health Points.
And not to mention, the Dragon had more than two times the endowments of William.
That was the reason why killing a Legendary Great Dragon was 100 times more difficult than killing an NPC at the same level...
William was able to duel with Legendary NPCs of the same level.
But many Legendary and Epic warriors were required to kill that Fire Dragon from before...
"Is the Dragon that powerful?" William was in disbelief.
It was actually a Dusk Dragon!
Dusk Dragons were extinct at the end of the first era. And when William remembered that in his previous life, Cronus had a Dusk Dragon that was named the Death Dragon!
