Surprise [Dragonic Overlord], You Stole the True Dragon

The King's Crown

The Golden Dragon's hollow body, like a balloon, was replenished by the power injected from the Ancient Fire Dragon's corpse, causing its withered and shrunken muscles to become full again.

The thin, golden scales became more solid, thickening and hardening, and the visible gaps between the scales were gradually covered!

The sunlight streaming down from above the valley shone on the Golden Dragon's body, causing its scales to reflect a faint, molten gold-red luster.

"This feeling... is a bit like Wild Shape, but much more real!"

Tang Zheng couldn't help but raise his dragon head, controlling the Golden Dragon to fully extend its wings, which were wider than its entire body.

He felt a sense of comfort, like being bathed in warm sunshine in the cold winter.

The wings unfolded and gently waved, sending gusts of wind sweeping around, swirling up the fallen branches and leaves from the surrounding trees and turning them into a green-yellow sea!

Golden brown eyes were revealed.

Through his Dragon Eyes, Tang Zheng could clearly observe things hidden in the shadows of some rocks deep in the valley, and even his hearing became extremely acute.

At this moment!

Tang Zheng clearly noticed that he seemed to have truly transformed into a dragon, not the previous fake transformation, nor the disguise of magical power like the "Wild Shape".

"The true power of [The True Dragon Lord's Heart]?"

Tang Zheng understood that this change was the effect of the True Dragon Lord Heart being triggered.

Whoosh--

The light from the magic circle on the ground suddenly increased by one degree.

The massive corpse of the Ancient Fire Dragon was emitting "whoosh whoosh" sounds as it was decomposing and dissolving at an accelerated rate visible to the naked eye!

"This is!"

Tang Zheng abruptly withdrew from the dragon's perception, his pupils widening in surprise.

He noticed again that his body, which had just been filled with energy, was beginning to deflate like a punctured balloon, but with the power of the Ancient Dragon dragon and fire Fire Dragon being injected into it, the rate of "deflating" was much slower.

"Just as we guessed, even with the blessing of the ritual, this state can't be maintained for long."

Tang Zheng remained calm and was not surprised.

[The True Dragon Lord's Heart] is similar to a magical item that can transform one into a "dragon." He triggered the effect of the magical item by touching it.

This is also why he was able to transform into Golden Dragon. It's like a combination lock; Tang Zheng unlocked it using the fingerprint of the Dragonman Ladon.

As for why Tang Zheng didn't use the [True Dragon Lord's Heart] himself, it was because this magical item had a strong repulsive reaction to him.

In gaming terms, it means "the usage conditions are not met"!

The heart that the Eight Greed Kings forged originated from a True Dragon Lord, and a dragon that can be called a "True Dragon Lord" must have mastered Wild Magic!

Tang Zheng possesses the power of Tier Magic, and this power is inherently in irreconcilable conflict with Wild Magic!

"What a pity about the Ancient Fire Dragon's corpse."

Tang Zheng thought to himself.

He originally planned to wait until his level increased so that his "Body Armament" could absorb the scales and bones of the Ancient Fire Dragon.

Now, it can only wastefully maintain the form of the Golden Dragon for a short period of time.

"The first objective, the effects of [the True Dragon Lord's Heart], have been determined."

"The second objective is to confirm whether the profession can be triggered!"

Tang Zheng controlled the Golden Dragon's body to descend from mid-air, closing his eyes to carefully sense the changes in his own aura.

Not long ago, Tang Zheng was somewhat excited after realizing that his aura was the same as that of Lainas and Enri back then.

The conditions for obtaining a profession in New World are not complicated, and most of them are related to life experience and personal training. However, special professions are related to the things one comes into contact with.

Lainas's [Cursed Knight] status stemmed from her contact with Forest Gnome affected by a curse, and Enri's state of mind was also under special circumstances.

now.

Contact with the heart, which is related to the True Dragon Lord and is suspected to have been crafted by the Eight Greed Kings using World Item, could potentially trigger a new class!

While I don't expect to obtain Special Class, getting a High-tier Class shouldn't be a problem.

After all, there are very few High-tier Class in this New World!

Tang Zheng also lacked confidence that he could use Mid-tier Class to continuously deduce High-tier Class.

Time passed second by second.

The corpse of the Ancient Fire Dragon is being consumed at an increasingly rapid rate.

Tang Zheng, however, was unable to recapture the sense of power he felt when he gained professional status. After a moment, he opened his eyes and sighed softly, "Did I fail?"

I subconsciously brought up the Attribute Panel and took a look.

Suddenly!

On Tang Zheng's majestic dragon head, covered with spiraling scales, a clear expression of shock and disbelief was revealed.

--How is that possible!

Tang Zheng stared intently at the Attribute Panel, where all the professions had turned gray.

Like when something is unusable in a game.

"Magic Arrow!"

"Ninjutsu: Detection!"

"Mana Slash!"

After consecutive attempts to use magic, skills, and class skills, all abilities become unusable.

"Mind's Eye! Hmm?"

Finally, I tried using "Martial Arts" and found that it worked normally.

"What exactly is going on?"

This was the first time Tang Zheng had faced such a situation, and a rare look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"My power is limited? No, my level hasn't decreased, and all my powers and passive effects are still active."

"Apart from ' Martial Arts,' all active skills were affected due to the class."

This unexpected situation, completely out of his control, made Tang Zheng tense, and he immediately wanted to deactivate his transformation.

Although he didn't know exactly what was going on, he was certain it was related to the current situation!

Bang!

Tang Zheng controlled the Golden Dragon, quickly raising its sharp feet, preparing to disrupt the magical ritual beneath its feet.

Soon, but then with some hesitation.

"This strange situation might be a good starting point!"

Tang Zheng's eyes gleamed.

He used the [True Dragon Lord's Heart] effect to transform himself into Golden Dragon, and then used a magical ritual to devour the blood and flesh energy of Ancient Fire Dragon to maintain this state.

In his current form, he is essentially no different from a real dragon!

"I'm level 50 now, theoretically the same as a level 50 Dragon Lords!"

Tang Zheng seemed to have grasped something. "Tier Magic corrupts this world, if the Dragon Race wants to become stronger, they should primarily focus on raising their Racial Level."

"Only after breaking through the Racial Level of level 50 can one access Wild Magic and become True Dragon Lord, a rare feat even among Dragon Lords."

"Now that I've transformed into Golden Dragon, does that mean I'm a Dragon Lords who has reached the level 50 racial cap?"

"This is probably why all professions have turned gray... replaced by fake ' Racial Class '!"

Tang Zheng's thoughts began to clear. "It's extremely difficult for the Dragon Lords to break through level 50. It's not something that can be achieved simply through hard work, just like how humans can't easily break through the Hero Realm."

"--but!"

"For Player, leveling up is just too easy!"

Tang Zheng wasn't sure if his guess was right, so he decided to verify it directly.

"Job Advancement [Sword Saint]!"

Because the skills of the Mid-tier Class that were previously rejected are still retained, you can re -Job Advancement the profession at any time based on your skills.

Overall Level 51

Boom!

Tang Zheng's aura suddenly intensified, and the [Sword Saint] class that had just appeared on his Attribute Panel was a normal color, unlike the other classes that had turned gray.

Buzz--

"The requirements for Class Construction have been met!"

"Construction error..."

"The requirements for Class Construction have been met!"

"Construction error!"

"The requirements for Class Construction have been met!"

"...!"

"Construction error!"

As if confirming Tang Zheng's speculation, the Job Advancement information suddenly appeared, and the text on the panel kept jumping and flashing, but it could never be condensed.

The Golden Dragon that Tang Zheng had transformed into began to look even more realistic, with a corrosive liquid even oozing from its mouth.

Sparks seemed to emerge faintly from the nasal cavity with each breath.

Wisps of heat emanated from the gaps in its golden scales, causing the surrounding air temperature to rise.

"Not enough!"

"Not enough!"

Tang Zheng tensed up, a sense of urgency rising within him. He clearly felt that one crucial condition was still missing.

What exactly is missing?

"Ah!!!" A shrill scream suddenly rang out.

The unconscious Dragonman Ladon awoke with a mournful cry, even breaking free from the effects of the charm magic. The indescribable pain caused him to convulse on the ground, his body limp.

Tang Zheng hadn't yet realized what was happening.

The next moment!

A burst of blood erupted from the Dragonkin's chest.

The [True Dragon Lord's Heart], covered in silver spiderweb-like patterns and flowing with blue magical runes, burst forth from his chest.

It shimmered with a blue and gold light in mid-air!

--It flew to Tang Zheng's side.

Thump!

Thump!

The True Dragon Lord's Heart beat, seemingly in harmony with Tang Zheng's aura.

"The aura of the Dragon Lords?!"

Tang Zheng changed slightly as he stared in astonishment at the heart floating before him.

He had sensed this aura when the Ancient Fire Dragon was alive!

Whoosh!

After a brief pause, his heart slammed into the chest of the Golden Dragon that Tang Zheng had transformed into. Instead of a normal collision, it melted into the golden scales like a snowflake.

"The requirements for Class Construction have been met!"

"Class Construction!"

"Obtained Special Class - [Dragonic Overlord]"

Are you currently Job Advancement?

"Dragonic Overlord?" Tang Zheng exclaimed in astonishment.

Isn't this a profession that only Dragon Race can obtain? Or is it a profession that only True Dragon Lord can possess?

"I'll Job Advancement!"

Tang Zheng subconsciously swallowed, his voice trembling slightly.

His original idea was simply to see if he could acquire a Advanced Tier profession related to dragons!

Introduction: My Orimolis XXXX. How dare the claws of a mortal touch the power of the Dragon Lords? The majesty of gold cannot be violated. What you have stolen is not a mere shell, but the crown of the True Dragon Lord!

Pray, you blasphemers!!

Before being discovered, atone for your sins with death; otherwise—this disgrace will be an eternal enmity with all Dragon Race!

"--roar!"

The moment Tang Zheng Job Advancement, he completely controlled the massive Golden Dragon's body. The overwhelming sense of power emanating from within made him let out a dragon roar.

Raising its head, its terrifying golden dragon eyes seemed to burn with flames, flashing with golden and red light!

Golden Dragon... No!

Now he is the true Gold Dragon Lord!

"Disengage!"

Tang Zheng spoke in a low voice.

The massive body no longer collapsed rapidly like a punctured balloon, but instead shrank quite naturally.

Tang Zheng appeared, standing steadily on the ground. Ripples of air spread out, and a golden light flashed in his eyes.

Quickly glance at the Attribute Panel!

"Have the gray-area professions been reinstated?"

After confirming that there was no problem with his class, Tang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and looked with delight at the new class [Dragonic Overlord] that appeared on his interface.

"To actually get this job, it's unbelievable!"

"This is a profession that only Dragon Race can Job Advancement. Is it thanks to that [True Dragon Lord's Heart]?"

Tang Zheng subconsciously touched his chest, hesitating slightly. "It disappeared after merging into the changing Dragon Race's body."

He was actually a little dazed throughout the whole process.

"No matter what, it's an amazing achievement!"

Tang Zheng looked at the job information for [Dragonic Overlord] with anticipation.

A total of eight passive abilities made his vision blur.

"These passives... uh, are they all Dragon Race- specific passives?" Tang Zheng's excitement waned after seeing the first few passives.
