Apas's Change
As the flames erupted, the enormous dragon scales shrank continuously. Tang Miao looked at Apas and asked, "Why... why is it harming itself?"
"Are you really stupid or just pretending?" Apas looked at Tang Miao with disdain, then explained, "These are exotic scales from the Black Dragon. Even its ordinary dragon scales have incredibly powerful defenses. After these scales are refined by its Dragon Flame... and then forged by one of the top blacksmiths in your human world, you will possess a top-tier magical artifact. Wearing it will allow you to withstand even the most Demon Beast attacks from Emperor Level!"
The fact that the Black Dragon Emperor would give something like this to Tang Miao is enough to show how grateful he is to him.
Tang Miao, somewhat embarrassed, pointed at Norman and said, "To be honest, he was the one who really put in the effort; I just launched a sneak attack at the end."
Apas nodded and said, "This is Black Dragon's other request; he hopes you can save him."
Tang Miao immediately understood. So the Black Dragon Emperor was afraid that Norman would abandon him here? It was very strong, but it didn't have healing abilities, so it wanted to ask him for help?
Of course, being able to offer up its exotic scales is already a tremendous gain.
Such a large dragon scale could easily be crafted into a complete set of Magic Tool!
This time he truly struck gold. Not only did he receive friendly treatment from the Black Dragon Emperor, but he also obtained top-quality materials for Magic Tool. Others might rarely encounter Monarch-Level Demon, but since reaching a higher rank, he's practically seen monarchs every day...
Once you reach the Transcendent level, even those who aren't Supreme Level monarchs seem somewhat insignificant...
Ice Element defense is quite good, and with the Snow Woman, even Supreme Monarch who are countered by certain elements can hardly harm him.
However, those who lack restraint can easily break through the defenses. The Mystic Snake Magic Armor is quite effective against poison, but it is completely ineffective against elemental magic bombardment.
The Black Dragon Emperor's gift was clearly very important to him!
"Huff... huff... huff..."
However, the Black Dragon Emperor's condition seemed more serious than expected; while melting the alien scales, it suddenly seemed to lack the strength to continue.
The flames were intermittent...
Ultimately, the Dragon Flame was completely extinguished...
"Roar~..."
The Black Dragon Emperor felt completely blocked. It had wanted to rage, but the area had already been severely ravaged. In the end, it simply lowered its massive head and began to explain to Apas ...
"Its body is filled with fly demon eggs, making it impossible for it to use Dragon Flame..." Apas explained to Tang Miao.
"Ask the Black Dragon Emperor if we can help it out," he said. Although it couldn't do anything itself, given its massive body and enormous head, he was perfectly capable of going in and cleaning it up. Of course, that was assuming the behemoth didn't end up digesting him...
Apas paused, then turned to look at the black dragon and began to speak...
After hearing what Apas said, the Black Dragon Emperor let out a few more low growls...
"Going in will indeed clear out the demonic flies that are choking it, but after dealing with them, Dragon Flame will spew out, which it cannot control... Unless you can withstand the impact of the Dragon Flame, it does not recommend that you go in. However, it is still very grateful to you..."
Upon hearing about the impact of the Dragon Flame, Tang Miao immediately became somewhat intimidated...
Are you kidding me?
Could he possibly withstand that Dragon Flame?
"However, danger also has its advantages. The Black Dragon Emperor said it can sense that there is a powerful creature inside your body. If you can kill these demonic flies, you can obtain its Dragon Source Power from them..." Apas said, looking at Tang Miao.
Dragon Source Power!!
He didn't know what it was, but just hearing the name told him it was definitely something good!
Anything associated with dragons, how could it be anything bad?
Just like the Totem Power, after the Qilin absorbed it, it directly crossed the barrier of high-level Lightning Element and broke through to the super-level in one fell swoop.
If he obtains this Dragon Source Power, he might achieve a new breakthrough!
"I'm really tempted. Since you've told me all this, does that mean you have a way to deal with Dragon Flame?" Tang Miao asked again.
Apas was bound to his life; if she didn't have the assurance of his survival, why would she tell him this?
Unless she doesn't want to live anymore...
Of course.
Apas nodded immediately, then said, "Others might not be able to do it, but you have the Fire Element Queen, Little Flame Ji!"
"It's true that Flame Ji is the darling of the fire element, but this is Dragon Flame. Can it withstand it with its own strength?" Tang Miao asked uncertainly.
"Using all of the Dragon Flame is naturally not enough to withstand it. But no one's asking you to eliminate all the demonic flies!"
Apas looked at the Black Dragon Emperor and said, "You just need to make an opening for it. With the protection of the Flame Ji, once all the Dragon Flame flames have been released, you can deal with the rest, and everything will be fine, right?"
That sounds true, but even standing right next to it, the heat is unbearable for most people.
However, before he could voice his doubts, Apas added, "You have a fire Element Pet and four kinds of Soul Fire protecting you. At most, you'll only feel burned, you won't die. What are you afraid of?"
"Apas, you're acting a bit strange today. Why did you think of helping me advance?" Tang Miao asked, puzzled.
You know, this little brat is lucky if she doesn't cause me trouble, but today she wants to help me improve my strength?
This feels a bit like the sun is in the wrong position...
"Hmph, since you won't break the contract, and I have to follow you all this time, I naturally don't want my strength to be suppressed. Besides, although you're a bit of a scoundrel, your strength has still earned this Queen's approval!" Apas said calmly.
Apas doesn't like being bound by contracts. Of course, no powerful Demon Beast would like being bound by contracts.
But since things had already come to this, and considering that Tang Miao, aside from taking advantage of her, was actually quite nice to her, she naturally wanted to help him improve his strength.
After all, only when he becomes powerful and reaches the top will she be truly safe. Apas is certain that after Empress Mother Medusa's death, the first thing her two sisters will do is find her and destroy her!
Therefore, when there is no other choice, the only option is to improve one's own strength and Tang Miao's strength.
So... it's not like there's absolutely no chance of seizing power in the future!
They are all of Medusa's true bloodline, so why wouldn't she want to be a Queen?
