Garos's eyes were sharp, staring at Blue Dragon in front of him.
To be honest, even with his experience, he never expected that the other party would make such an unexpected request when they first met.
Patricide?
Among the Chromatic Dragon genealogy that is generally chaotic and evil, Blue Dragon is the one that adheres to the most order and pays the most attention to social structure.
They live together as a group, and their internal family ties are closer than those of other Chromatic Dragon who live alone or have loose relationships.
If in a different timeline.
Gorsas is a Blue Dragon, and Garos is a Blue Iron Dragon.
The relationship and development trajectory between father and son may be completely different from the cruel reality.
"Give me a convincing reason."
"Why did you kill your father? What was your motive?"
Garos's voice was smooth and smooth, and there was no hint of emotion or anger, but a pair of dragon eyes shrank slightly, revealing the seriousness in his heart.
Blue Dragon Zolaya fell into a brief silence, thinking about his words in his heart.
Finally, under the gaze of Red Iron Dragon, she slowly spoke, her voice low and clear, and said, "In order to survive."
She first gave the most direct summary.
Then, she paused for a moment and began to explain in more detail.
"With your sharp eyes, you can definitely see that my dragon horns are completely different from the normal Blue Dragon."
Garos's eyes shifted to the pair of distinctive dragon horns on her head.
There are many gorgeous and complex bifurcated structures, and indeed there is no precedent record in his Dragon Inheritance memory.
Unique and eye-catching.
"Although I have the blood of Blue Dragon flowing in my body and am a pure-blooded Blue Dragon, in fact, my mother is not Blue Dragon."
Zolaya's voice was deeper and he said, "My unique dragon horns are the result of a special mutation caused by mixed blood."
She raised her head and met Garos's gaze.
"My mother is a vicious and insidious excellent Green Dragon."
Zolaya continued, "She is extremely good at disguise and bluffing, and is very scheming. She is the leader, my father Perest's publicly recognized partner, and she is also Dominic Dragonflight's recognized think tank."
"Many of the dragon group's affairs and foreign strategies are all planned by her."
"She is also very powerful and enjoys high prestige among the dragons."
"It was during a fierce battle between the dragons and the Storm Giant clan. We held a combat meeting to decide on the next course of action."
Zolaya said in a straightforward tone, "At that meeting, my father rejected the combat strategy proposed by my mother and instead proposed his own plan. No dragon dared to question him."
"However, in the end, my father's strategy failed miserably, causing considerable losses to the dragons."
"Afterwards, the dragons reviewed the situation privately, and generally believed that if mother's strategy had been implemented at that time, the result would have been completely different, and it might even have been a big victory."
"Since then, the members of the dragon group have privately had a lot of dissatisfaction and doubts about their father's leadership."
"On the contrary, my mother's prestige is growing day by day."
After hearing this, combined with Zolaya's request for patricide, Garos roughly sketched the outline of the subsequent development of the matter.
But he didn't interrupt, he just continued to listen in silence.
"Regarding the changes in the prestige of the two, my father was extremely magnanimous at the time, and could even be said to be open-minded." Zolaya said, "He once publicly stated in front of all the core members that he would abdicate sooner or later and make way for others. He believed that his mother was more suitable to lead the dragon group than him, and he would give up the position of leader to her in the future."
Her voice paused again and became a little deeper.
"However, not long after, my father and mother teamed up to intercept a lone Storm Giant. This was supposed to be a sure-fire, risk-free mission, but in the end something went fatally wrong - only my father returned alone."
"What he said is that Storm Giant exploded with power beyond expectations before he died."
"My mother was killed unexpectedly."
"Because he sensed that other Storm Giant reinforcements were approaching quickly, he could not take care of his mother's body and could only evacuate alone."
This statement sounds like a regretful accident.
The power of Green Dragon is more reflected in the endless Spell-like Ability and poison. Its own physical fitness and defense ability are at the bottom of Chromatic Dragon, even worse than White Dragon.
In a fierce battle, logically speaking, it is not completely impossible to be killed by a counterattack by a dying opponent due to negligence.
However, thinking about it conversely, another possibility cannot be completely ruled out.
Thunderheart Perest carried out the murder of his partner out of fear of losing his prestige.
"I think it was my father who killed my mother."
Zolaya said with a firm tone, without much sadness in his eyes.
Red Iron Dragon narrowed his eyes slightly and asked with a sense of scrutiny, "With Green Dragon's sense of conspiracy and keen perception of danger, she cannot detect the murderous intention of a Blue Dragon towards her?"
Zolaya heard this and shook her head, which was covered with fine scales Blue Dragon.
"Perhaps it's because they grew up together, went through life and death together countless times, and fought side by side."
"My mother has made countless calculations in her life, but her only weakness is that she trusts her partner too much and ignores his cold-blooded nature hidden under the rational appearance. In the end, she paid the price with her life."
Zolaya gave a short and cold sneer, "And I can see it very clearly and thoroughly."
"My father, Perest·Dominic, is a creature with almost no superfluous emotions."
"All his actions are based on his own interests. He is a Evil Dragon who puts interests first. Emotions, commitments, blood relationships... in his eyes, they are just chips and obstacles that can be used or need to be cleared."
At this moment, Red-Silver Dragon Deborah, who had been lying paralyzed at Garos's feet, could barely support his upper body with his forelimbs.
She was touched by this cruel narrative and couldn't help but interjected and asked, "So, you came up with this idea because you wanted to avenge your mother?"
Her voice still sounded weak after exercise, but it was more filled with doubts.
Blue Dragon Zolaya glanced at the mixed-breed Metal Dragon in confusion, and then looked at Red Iron Dragon.
She originally thought that Metal Dragon was a prisoner or trophy of Molten Iron King, but now it seems that the relationship between the two is not that simple.
After observing that Red Iron Dragon showed no displeasure, she turned back and said to Red-Silver Dragon, "Metal Dragon, please don't always use your set of standards full of warmth and morality to speculate on what we Evil Dragon think."
"I didn't pay much attention to my mother's death itself."
"She blindly trusted my father, and at the same time, her existence did threaten my father's dominance, and she was not aware of this. From the perspective of Evil Dragon's survival rules, her elimination is a natural result."
"I'm telling you about my mother." She refocused her gaze on Garos: "The main reason is so that you, the distinguished Molten Iron King, can more clearly understand what kind of cold-blooded and ruthless dragon my father is."
"This will help you decide whether my request is worthy of consideration."
Red-Silver Dragon Deborah opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something more, but in the end all his words turned into a sigh.
She originally had some illusions, thinking that Blue Dragon, who was known for his sense of order and family, might be different from other Chromatic Dragon.
But now it seems that she was too naive.
The struggle within the Blue Dragon ethnic group is equally cruel and dangerous.
Zolaya did not care about Metal Dragon's reaction and continued to explain to Garos, "My father, before he entered his prime and fell asleep this time, he personally promised me that when my strength surpasses him in the future, he will take the initiative to give up the position of leader to me and ask me to wait patiently."
She sneered and said, "Haha, he also said similar words to my mother back then."
"Before, the dragon group was in a critical period of coming to the wilderness to expand its territory. Moreover, while he was sleeping, the dragon group needed to be managed. I was of great use to him, so he didn't do anything to me. Instead, he trusted and relied on me very much, treating me as his right-hand man."
Zolaya paused and said seriously, "But, he has woken up now."
"When he no longer needs me, or feels that I pose a threat to him, I'm afraid I will follow in my mother's footsteps and die in an unknown accident."
"I pretended to be awe and obedient in front of him, just so that I could kill him first at the right moment!"
She raised her head and looked at Red Iron Dragon with burning eyes. "There are rumors in the wilderness that Mad King Gorsas is your biological father. Although it has not been confirmed, I think this rumor is very true."
"A dragon who can kill his father coldly, I believe you can understand my thoughts and situation at this moment."
Garos:"..."
His dragon face seemed to twitch slightly, feeling that he was offended.
But the fact is there. No matter what the reason is, there is nothing to explain. If it were not for Frenzied Flame's influence, he would not care about Blue Dragon's words at all.
Suppress the urge to go crazy.
He stared at Blue Dragon Zolaya and asked, "Your reason is just to survive?"
Just to survive, she does not need to choose the extremely difficult and risky path of patricide.
As a very powerful Mature Dragon, after seeing her father's true face clearly, she has every opportunity to choose to escape from the dragons, fly far away, and get rid of Perest's control.
Zolaya said calmly, "In addition, of course, it is also because of the unwillingness and ambition deep in my heart."
"My father once half-jokingly said in a conversation that with my talent and character, when I become stronger than him, I will definitely challenge his rule and seize the position of leader."
"And my answer at the time was: It's absolutely impossible. I will always fear and respect him and be content to serve as an assistant."
"Father is very satisfied with my answer."
She grinned and said, "But, my father... he actually didn't misjudge me."
"He just underestimated the part of the Green Dragon bloodline I inherited from my mother. Although it is not exposed, it makes me better at hiding my fangs and better at forbearing for a long time."
"I have coveted the position of leader of the dragons for a long time."
"Becoming a lord of dragons and ruling an area is the dream of most Blue Dragons, including me, Zolaya·Dominic."
Red Iron Dragon stared at Zolaya.
After a few seconds of silence, he suddenly grinned and said, "Then, tell me, Blue Dragon."
"What price can you pay to achieve your ambition?"
Zolaya took a deep breath and said seriously, "As long as you agree, after I become the leader of Dominic Dragonflight, the entire dragon group will become your, Molten Iron King, most steadfast and loyal ally."
"Our power will be used by you!"
Garos heard this, but just shook his head slightly. "Perhaps, I have a simpler and more direct choice."
"For example, package you, along with your declaration of patricide, and send it to your father, using this as a bargaining chip in exchange for settling the feud with Dominic Dragonflight, or even forming an alliance."
He said slowly, "Your father is stronger than you, has more experience, and has ruled the dragons for a longer time. He obviously has more weight than you."
Zolaya's heart suddenly froze, but the calm nature derived from Blue Dragon and the scheming inherited from Green Dragon allowed her to force herself to calm down in a very short period of time.
She quickly realized that this was probably Molten Iron King testing her determination and observing her reaction.
She thought quickly for a few seconds, organized her words, and then responded, "You are right, my father is indeed more powerful than me, but precisely because he is so powerful, you cannot completely suppress him, and it is even harder to truly control him."
"He only trusts himself."
"He may agree to form an alliance with you because of the immediate benefits, but only to buy time, to better find your weaknesses, and to wait for opportunities."
"An alliance with him is destined to be full of uncertainty and potential danger."
"You need to always be on your guard against him."
She changed the topic and brought the focus back to herself. "But I am completely different."
"I am so weak to you that you can easily control me and even take my life at any time. I am fully aware of this and am willing to accept it."
"Therefore, the alliance between us will not be based on false equality, but a stable superior-subordinate relationship similar to vassalage."
She lowered her body slightly and emphasized. "I, Zolaya, am willing to live under you and obey your orders."
As he spoke, Blue Dragon gracefully stretched his curvaceous body, raised his head slightly, and fully exposed his unique and gorgeous pair of dragon horns in front of Garos's eyes.
"In addition to the value that comes with being the leader of the dragons, I... will also belong to you."
There was a subtle softness in her voice as she said, "Before I met you, I had never met any male dragon that made me feel so impressed and amazed."
"I can be your companion, or even just a plaything for your pleasure, until you get tired of me."
"It would be an honor for me to serve a strong man like you."
After hearing her words, Red-Silver Dragon Deborah stood up suddenly as if his tail had been stepped on.
"You! You... you shameless Evil Dragon!"
Although her body was still sore, she was still so angry that her scales stood up slightly, and she scolded with shame and anger, "Garos He's not even officially an adult yet! Damn it Evil Dragon, take back all those shameless words you just said! Immediately!"
Not an adult yet?!
Zolaya turned a deaf ear to Red-Silver Dragon's insults, but instead captured the information that shocked her the most.
Molten Iron King's actual age seems completely inconsistent with his mighty appearance!
"Could that rumor, which sounds the most outrageous and incredible, actually be true?!"
Her eyes were full of disbelief, and her eyes focused on Garos's body again.
Zolaya couldn't hold back the turmoil in his heart, so he couldn't help but ask, "Dear Molten Iron King, please forgive me for being presumptuous, are you really just a Young Dragon?"
"Yes, so what?"
Garos neither admitted nor denied, but the tone and attitude of the rhetorical question were almost equivalent to acquiescence.
Zolaya took some time to calm down his shocked mood.
Her eyes involuntarily swept across Red Iron Dragon's majestic body, every inch of which was filled with explosive power, and she murmured, "Sorry, please forgive my overreaction, you really surprised me."
Metal Dragon It is generally believed that we need to wait until adulthood before we start thinking about reproduction and partners.
Evil Dragon doesn't think so.
In the eyes of Evil Dragon, age has never been a critical issue.
On the contrary, Garos is so powerful at such a young age. The potential and unlimited future represented behind this made Blue Dragon Zolaya shocked, but even more intense excitement surged in his heart.
Her slender tail is slightly curved and her neck is raised elegantly, showing her charm as a female dragon.
"So, how do you feel about the proposal I just made?"
"As long as you nod and agree, I, Zolaya, will be yours from now on, and to a certain extent, the entire Dominic Dragonflight will also be used by you in the future."
She looked at Red Iron Dragon expectantly.
However, Red Iron Dragon's next words instantly extinguished the enthusiasm in her eyes and made her heart sink.
"You seem to have made a mistake."
Red Iron Dragon said slowly, "If I can kill Heart of Thunder, the entire Dominic Dragonflight will belong to me, including you."
His voice was not high, but it made Zolaya feel tense all over.
His body leaned forward slightly, and his bloodshot eyes, lurking in the calmness, locked onto Blue Dragon.
"What makes you think you have the capital to negotiate with me?"
"And what makes you think that I would trust the words of a man who attempted to kill his father?"
At this moment, it was like an overwhelming sense of oppression, rushing towards my face.
The figure of Red Iron Dragon in front of him became infinitely majestic and terrifying, as if it filled Blue Dragon Zolaya's entire field of vision.
Her strong body trembled slightly uncontrollably, and she opened her mouth, only to find that her throat was dry. She was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
