Wood Dragon Slayer Mage George (Second Update)
"Disappeared!"
Seeing George disappear, Igneel grabbed the falling mirror, examined it, and found that the True Magic traces on it had been removed. She muttered to herself:
"You're even proficient in spatial True Magic? I'll remember you, little kitty."
He was careless just now; he didn't expect that a mere kitten could use such powerful True Magic, which is why he suffered only minor injuries.
If he were in dragon form, even True Magic of that level wouldn't be able to harm him.
However, he only recently sensed the presence of the Acnologia Acnologia on the Northern Continent, and he dared not revert to his dragon form for fear of being discovered by Acnologia.
Although rumors say that the Five God Dragons possess power as great as the Acnologia, they themselves know very well that at most they can only say they have the power to escape from the Acnologia's clutches.
Defeating and killing the Acnologia is impossible, at least not in the current state.
"Phew, it seems we should postpone sealing the Five God Dragons until later."
George teleported to the nearest city in the Mirror Space, emerged from a mirror, dispelled the Mirror Magic, and then teleported several more times to avoid being tracked by the Fire God Dragon before finally letting out a sigh of relief.
The Fairy Law, activated with one-third of his life force, only slightly injured Igneel in her human form; clearly, he couldn't handle her in a short time.
When dealing with enemies of similar strength, using the Fairy Law will not consume much of your life force.
However, knowing that Igneel was far stronger than himself, he consumed an extra third of his life force to increase the power of the Fairy Law.
Given his physique, he should be able to recover this third of his life force in about six months. It would be worthwhile to use it to test the strength of the Five God Dragons.
"Let's go check on the other two Shenron!"
Having roughly grasped the strength of the Fire God Dragon, he no longer held much hope for the other two Shenron. He decided to go through the motions, get a general understanding from afar, and then go back to being a proper Earth Dragon Slayer Mage.
Following the Tracking Charm's instructions, he first went to the location of the Water God Dragon.
They discovered that the arrow of the final Tracking Charm stopped on a vast ocean, realizing that the Water God Dragon was probably hiding deep in the sea, so they didn't continue.
He's not good at fighting in the sea.
He turned around and continued following the Tracking Charm to the location of the Wood God Dragon, a look of confusion on his face.
"What's going on? The arrow keeps pointing at this mountain. Could it be hidden inside this mountain?"
Following the arrow, he found a mountain over 8,000 meters high, on which he discovered five cities built by humans.
He originally thought that the Wood God Dragon was hiding in one of these human cities.
However, the arrow of the Tracking Charm did not point specifically to the five cities, but instead kept pointing to the entire mountain. The same was true Footprints Manifestation.
This puzzled him, as he assumed the Wood God Dragon was hiding inside the mountain.
But when he landed on the mountaintop and was about to explore, he was suddenly stunned.
"No way, is it that big?"
The instant he touched the mountain, he felt an extremely terrifying life force and a rich Dragon Power.
This made him suddenly realize a fact.
That means the Wood God Dragon wasn't hiding in this high mountain, but rather this mountain, over 8,000 meters high, was the Wood God Dragon's true form.
Over 8,000 meters—that's about the size of Mount Everest.
Is it asleep?
George activated his Psychic Abilities and discovered that the Wood God Dragon's consciousness seemed to have fallen into a state similar to slumber.
"Sleeping is good, sleeping is wonderful."
He never expected that what was originally just a formality would actually turn into a windfall.
The Wood God Dragon is actually asleep, and the five cities below it have clearly existed for many years, indicating that it will definitely not wake up anytime soon.
So, if he stays here for a while and absorbs some of the Wood God Dragon's power, there shouldn't be any danger.
The dragon power of the Wood God Dragon was one of his preferred dragon powers, which suited him perfectly.
With that in mind, he lay down on the mountaintop, on the head of the Wood God Dragon, and began to circulate the Dragon Slayer Magic, absorbing the Dragon Power of the Wood Dragon to gradually improve his physique and generate Dragon Seed.
The process of generating Dragon Seed takes about a month, unlike Dragon Crystal which can be directly embedded into the body.
However, the whole process is not dangerous. Although implanting Dragon Crystal is convenient, if the mage who has the Dragon Crystal implanted does not have enough talent and physical strength, the power of the Dragon Crystal will directly cause it to explode, which is very dangerous.
According to Makarov, the implantation of the Dragon Crystal in Laxus was extremely dangerous.
Thus, as the Dragon Power entered his body, gradually improving his physique and generating the Dragon Seed, George's vitality began to increase significantly.
The one-third of his life force that he had lost due to using the Fairy Law was fully replenished three days later.
A month later, George suddenly opened his eyes, a dragon scale flashed across his cat face, and he flew into the air, puffing out his cheeks and roaring:
"Dragon Slayer Magic: Wood Dragon's Roar!"
A green, magical whirlwind shot straight into the Skyrim.
Then he puffed out his cat-like mouth a second time:
"Dragon Slayer Magic: Fire Dragon's Roar!"
The second type of Dragon Slayer Magic erupted.
"Just as I thought, because wood generates fire, the Fire Dragon Slayer Magic has also been greatly enhanced."
At this moment, George has clearly become a legitimate Wood Dragon Slayer Mage in this world.
Furthermore, because the dragon Dragon Crystal absorbed from the other two worlds can also simulate Natsu's Fire Dragon Slayer Magic.
At the same time, his magic power, physique, and vitality also increased significantly.
"This Wood God Dragon isn't a good thing either."
Flying into the sky and looking down at the sleeping Wood God Dragon, George couldn't help but sigh.
After lying on the head of the Wood God Dragon and absorbing its dragon power for a month, he also discovered a terrifying truth.
That is, this Wood God Dragon is not simply pretending to be a sleeping mountain; it is using its dragon power to subtly assimilate all the creatures residing on its body.
They absorb those organisms as nutrients into their own bodies to enhance their power.
So those five cities were actually bait thrown out by the Wood God Dragon to lure humans to live in them, and then continuously devour them to evolve.
He spread his wings and circled over the five cities. He discovered that all the humans in the five cities had been assimilated by the Wood God Dragon. Those who seemed normal had all become the Wood God Dragon's puppets.
"Never mind, I'd better take care of my own business first."
He is much stronger now than when he fought Igneel a month ago, but he feels that even if he unleashes all his life force to unleash the Fairy Law, he probably won't be able to kill the sleeping Wood God Dragon; he will only wake it up.
That would only make things more complicated.
