Chapter 55: Successfully Tamed (Dragon-Taming Arc)
Vermithor's slit pupils were indifferent as he charged straight into the Bronze Dragonflame, which then swallowed his entire body.
Aemon refused to sit and wait for death. He thought of the only way to save himself.
He summoned the Magic Essence Panel. On the card panel, three useless cards—two green and one blue—glimmered with flowing light.
At that moment, dragonfire rushed toward him.
Aemon stayed calm, silently counting a breath.
In that flash of lightning, midnight arrived, and the card panel refreshed.
Buzz!
The three cards spun wildly as a vast white mist churned and surged.
When the brilliant radiance settled, it became three brand-new cards.
Without the slightest hesitation, Aemon spent three points in succession to flip them all over.
One white and two blue. The sky-blue color was far better than green.
1. Physique +1: Safely and harmlessly strengthens the body.
2. Sapphire Amulet: Provides three magical shields to block three high-level magical attacks.
3. Solid as a Rock: Hardens the bones, making them as tough as stone.
Pop! Pop! Pop!
Aemon's mind tightened into a single thread. In an instant, he tapped all three cards in succession, activating their effects.
The white card shattered in an instant, turning into a milky-white glow that plunged into his chest.
The two blue cards split down the middle. A watery-blue glow fell onto his chest, forming a silver necklace set with a sapphire.
A deep-blue glow burrowed into his heart. With every beat, it was pumped through his blood and flowed deep into his marrow, increasing his bone density and purging impurities from his marrow.
The moment the glow vanished, every bone in his body underwent a drastic transformation. As his blood flowed throughout him, it subtly strengthened his hair, follicles, organs, and more.
