"I want to leave Material Plane temporarily and go to Fey Wilds."
Red Iron Dragon informed Sorog and Samantha of the general situation through Blood Kin Link.
Samantha's response immediately exploded on the other end of the link, and there was an excited mental reaction. "Is our name finally going to reach Outer Planes?"
"Haha! Garos, my dear brother, I hope Fey Wilds is just the beginning."
"From Heaven Mountain to bottomless Abyss, one day our roar will make the gods and Demon tremble together!"
This was a bit too arrogant to say.
But Garos did not correct him.
Red dragons are such in nature that they like to talk wildly and draw grand blueprints.
Samantha is the best among them. She never talks about it, but she actually knows it very well in her heart.
She has a clear understanding of how much she weighs and what ecological position she is in, and she will not do stupid things that are beyond her ability.
He's happy when he's at home, but he's very cautious at critical moments.
At the same time, Iron Dragon Sorog also felt excited, but the excitement was completely different from Samantha.
"Outer Planes..."
He pondered, and a deep voice slowly came through the connection, "Romanian Plains is now in our possession."
"If you want to continue to expand, the next step is bound to be a head-on conflict with hegemons or powerful city-states in other regions."
"That would be very troublesome, and it might even arouse Holden Empire's alarm prematurely."
Atlant Continent is vast and can be roughly divided into five major regions.
Northern Frontier and Romanian Plains are just one of them. There are similar regions in the east, west and south, which together account for about a quarter of the total area of the mainland.
The remaining three-quarters are located in the center of the continent, Middle-earth, which has the most abundant resources and the most fertile land.
That is the territory of the Holden Empire, also known as Central Continent, the absolute center.
Central Continent's heaven and earth belong to the Holden Empire.
Garos once won the title of "Lord of the Northern Frontier" in Romanian Plains.
At first, the name was somewhat frivolous.
But today, even looking at the entire Atlant Continent, this title already has a heavy gold content.
However, if Aura Kingdom wants to extend its tentacles to other areas, even the closest ones, it must circumvent the territory of the Holden Empire and can only use dangerous and remote places.
This is not a simple matter, the investment is huge, but the results are unpredictable.
"When we completely digest the resources of Romanian Plains, our development will reach a bottleneck sooner or later."
Sorog continues the analysis, the thinking is clear.
"I have thought about how to break the situation before, but I always felt that the goal was still far away and the daily tasks were complicated, so I didn't go into it deeply."
"Now, Garos, you have given me new inspiration."
He paused briefly and became obviously energetic. "Holden Empire can develop Abyss, why can't we?"
"As long as we find suitable channels and ways to seize power and resources from other planes, it may be more efficient and the resistance may be smaller than competing with other forces in Material Plane."
Plane resources are theoretically almost unlimited.
Compared with many planes, Bernardo Planet is, after all, just one of the thousands of worlds in Prime Material Plane, and its resources are really not rich.
Samantha Hearing this, his shock immediately overcame his excitement.
"Sorog, are you crazy?!"
When she shouted "It makes Abyss tremble" before, she was more expressing a distant and beautiful yearning, but she didn't really want to touch Abyss right away.
When even the most arrogant red dragon mentions that place, he will instinctively feel fear in his heart.
As for the Holden Empire who dared to actually develop Abyss...Samantha secretly admired their courage.
This is not something ordinary people can do.
It's not easy to just have this idea, let alone put it into practice.
"Abyss This is not a place where we can stretch our claws, at least not yet."
Samantha rarely became serious and spoke word by word.
Iron Dragon was silent for two seconds before slowly explaining, "What I mean is, we can follow Holden's idea."
"Develop other planes, but it doesn't have to be Abyss."
"For example, the Fey Wilds that Garos is going to is a good Qidian."
Looking at all the known Outer Planes, Abyss is undoubtedly the one with the most evil reputation and the highest risk factor.
If Abyss is compared to a vicious and murderous thug, then in front of it Fey Wilds is at most like a lively, harmless, and even innocent little lolita.
"Oh... that's it."
Samantha was obviously relieved, and his tone became brisk again, "I was shocked. I thought your brain was caught in the door, or was quietly corrupted by Abyss's whispers."
Then, she added in that vicious tone:
"No, I have to go to the small cracks in our territory later, burn some Demon to death, and listen to their beautiful wails before they die! Just treat it as bad luck!"
Sorog ignored Samantha's declaration of violence and turned to Garos for confirmation.
"What do you think of this idea?"
"Since you are about to go to Fey Wilds, you might as well take a closer look. Is that plane worthy of our attention? Is it possible to establish a stronghold and lay down a foundation there?"
Garos did not answer immediately.
He is also thinking seriously about this issue.
Any Outer Planes, due to differences in its basic rules from Prime Material Plane, will inevitably breed rare products or unique environments that Prime Material Plane does not have at all.
If a stable Outer Planes can be successfully developed, the benefits will be immeasurable.
However, opportunities always coexist with risks.
Any Outer Planes has its own dangers, the only difference lies in the form and degree of danger.
Perhaps because few of its ancestors had dragons that set foot on that land, the records in Fey Wilds and Dragon Inheritance are not detailed.
There are only some rough descriptions in the tradition.
For example, it is a beautiful and active plane inhabited by many Fae creatures.
But one thing is clear.
Deity exists in Fey Wilds.
The God who truly controls Divine Authority and lords over Divine Kingdom.
"To me now, there is actually no difference between the existence of the god Outer Planes and the Immortal Realm of Material Plane."
"But in any case, setting foot in other planes is bound to be accompanied by risks, which need to be carefully weighed."
Thinking of this, he said to Sorog through the link, "Practice brings true knowledge."
"After I personally fly to Fey Wilds, see it with my own eyes, and experience it myself, I will then judge whether it is worth our risk."
The communication continued for a few more minutes, and after some details were finalized, the connection gradually faded.
Red Iron Dragon lowered his head again and looked at Flower Fairy, who had been waiting quietly aside, nervous and full of expectations.
"We're ready to go."
He said, while crushing Fairy Dragon Scale.
At first, there was nothing strange around.
About a minute later, ripples began to appear in the air, and brilliant rainbow-like brilliance emerged, rotating and interweaving, gradually forming a vortex about ten meters in diameter.
Through the center of the vortex, you can see the scene on the other side.
A lush forest scene.
You can still vaguely hear the sound of the stream and the laughter of Fae.
"Wow... it's completely different from the Teleportation that was sent to me!"
Flower Fairy flapped its wings and flew around the whirlpool excitedly, "This whirlpool is huge, and you can directly see Verdant Garden! Master Vera, you are so amazing, you can do anything!"
She praised without hesitation.
Garos stared at the "huge" space vortex, then lowered his head to size up his dragon body, and fell into a brief silence.
Squeeze through?
The idea was rejected by him as soon as it arose.
Along with the shimmering light flowing on the surface of the scales, he cast Shapeshifting Spell, rapidly shrinking in size until he reached the point where he could easily pass through the whirlpool.
However, when he approached the vortex, the edge of the vortex actually shrank inward as he approached.
It always maintains a size that Garos cannot pass directly.
"The Planar Portal developed by Vera has a carrying capacity limit... and for me, even if I reduce my size, my life strength still exceeds this limit."
Garos Some teleportation knowledge came to mind and he quickly made a judgment.
Teleportation across planes and space teleportation within a plane are two different things, and the level of difficulty cannot be directly compared.
Just like Xia'er.
Before Legendary Realm, he was able to use the skill of banishing the target to an alien plane. He even tried it on himself, but failed. He could also flash short distances or travel through Dimensional Interstice.
However, he himself cannot teleport over long distances.
Similarly, someone who can teleport ultra-long distance may not necessarily be able to banish creatures to other planes, let alone teleport to other planes.
"Let the Alchemist and Magic Array divisions in the kingdom come over and make a Planar Portal Stabilizer or amplifier here?"
Garos thought of technical means, but then rejected it, "No, this is not as simple as temporarily building a teleportation array. It involves the stabilization and expansion across Planar Portal. It is a large project and difficult to complete in a short time."
He thought for a while and gradually came up with an idea.
The next moment, he raised one front paw.
Garos's Spell-Annihilating Claw firmly grasped the edge of the plane vortex.
A low dragon roar rolled out of his throat, Garos exerted force on his arms, and the muscles stretched and bulged under the scales, and began to slowly tear to both sides.
Buzz buzz!
The space vortex immediately felt a violent tremor, resisting this violence.
The resistance was astonishingly great, and even with the powerful power of Garos, it actually felt a heavy burden.
The vortex was torn open very slowly, and as the opening expanded, the resistance increased exponentially, making him gradually feel powerless.
"It's interesting."
Red Iron Dragon paused slightly and opened his mouth with an interesting smile.
Phew!
The solid Dragon Qi rose from his body.
Under the stunned gaze of little Flower Fairy, a shocking change happened to her.
Garos Energy condensed in the air on both sides of the shoulders and neck, and in the blink of an eye it transformed into two majestic dragon heads that were identical to the main head in the center and covered with thick dragon scales.
At the same time.
On both sides of his torso, two additional pairs of giant arms, also made of Dragon Qi, were clearly visible.
Three heads standing side by side, six arms surrounding the body!
At this moment, Red Iron Dragon is like a creature that came out of ancient mythology, with an aura as vast as an abyss and a posture as majestic as a mountain.
Then, six flashing Spell-Annihilating Claw probed out at the same time, seizing several "focus points" under True Eye's insight.
Open!
The three dragon heads roared in unison, making the surrounding air buzz with sound. The six giant claws burst out with terrifying power, working together to tear both sides, up and down at the same time!
The other side.
Fey Wilds, Verdant Garden.
Led by Fairy Dragon Vera, a large group of Fae creatures of various shapes are gathering in a forest clearing.
They all raised their little heads and looked eagerly at the rainbow vortex in the sky, their eyes full of curiosity and expectation.
"What will Garos look like now?"
Vera stood at the front, feeling equally excited.
"When I left Material Plane, he was already Legendary Realm. Even if there are changes after that, it shouldn't be too big... right?"
Thinking of this, she felt a little uncertain.
After all, it is Garos, and it can always make some unexpected moves.
Time passed minute by minute.
Suddenly, the center of the vortex began to fluctuate violently, and the amplitude of expansion and contraction became extremely exaggerated. Then, the center of the vortex suddenly bulged outwards, as if some giant thing was squeezing in from the other side.
Then, a giant claw covered with dark red dragon scales slowly emerged from the whirlpool.
This scene is quite terrifying.
Fae Everyone took a deep breath, but no one felt scared. Instead, they stretched their necks longer, their eyes widened, and they were extremely excited.
This claw... is too big?!
In the "Red Emperor Stories" that Vera has been updating recently, she claimed that she used some kind of clone technique in order to balance the lives of Fey Wilds and Material Plane.
The lively, smart and cute Fairy Dragon Vera is the main body.
The other clone, who is better at fighting and incomparably majestic, takes the pseudonym Garos·Ignas and creates great achievements in Material Plane.
Fae people firmly believe in this and are full of romantic imagination about it.
At this moment, they held their breath and concentrated.
After the first giant claw, the second, third... a total of six dragon claws that were equally towering and terrifying, as if they could crush steel and rocks, stretched out from the whirlpool one after another, and firmly grasped the edge of the whirlpool.
The next second, the six giant claws burst out with unparalleled power at the same time, tearing violently in different directions.
Tsk!!!
A loud noise that shook the souls of all Fae resounded throughout the entire Verdant Garden.
Planar Portal, which requires special talent to construct, was torn open a huge gap by the most primitive and violent method.
The center of the crack.
A figure of Shen Xiong, standing tall and tall on the sky and the earth, is slowly inserting his upper body into Fey Wilds.
The first thing that caught the eyes of all Fae was three majestic dragon heads lined up side by side and covered with thick dragon scales.
Each one is huge beyond Fae's imagination. The dragon's eyes are like the sun, overlooking the tiny creatures below.
Immediately afterwards, there is a neck and broad shoulders that are as majestic as the mountains connected to the head, and then, supporting the upper body, there are three pairs of thick Dragon Arm that also penetrated through the cracks. The muscle lines on them are as clear as chisels and axes, and they are stretched and bulged, shining with the sheen of metal and strength.
Just by squeezing into Fey Wilds's upper body, the shadow cast completely enveloped the forest glade.
The air seemed to freeze.
The gurgling sound of the stream seemed to have disappeared, the wind had stopped breathing, and even the usual subtle insects in the forest were completely silent.
All Faes, whether they are little Flower Fairys flying in the air or little goblins.
Or Tree Sprite and Flower Spirit that are rooted in the ground.
They all raised their necks, opened their mouths, or opened their stamens, or tree holes, staring blankly at the giant dragon that occupied most of their field of vision in the sky, their minds went blank.
This... this is...Red Emperor in the story of Master Vera?
This... the story didn't say he had three heads and six arms!
Garos lowered his eyes, looking at the Faes below who seemed to be petrified, and a thought flashed through his mind.
Did my posture scare them?
But the moment this thought arose in him.
"Wow!!!"
I don't know which little goblin was the first to let out a scream that was so sharp that it broke the sound, like lighting the fuse of a dynamite barrel, and more cheers followed.
"Red...Red Emperor! It's your great Majesty Red Emperor!"
"So... so big! So... so strong!"
"It's amazing! It's ten thousand times more powerful than what's told in the story! No, a million times!"
"Demon Wraith is dead! Absolutely, absolutely dead! It can't even compare to one of His Majesty's claws!"
The little Faes began to fly randomly in the air, screaming and cheering excitedly; the Tree Sprites shook the branches and leaves vigorously, making rustling cheers; the Flower Fairys sprinkled colorful pollen, like celebratory fireworks.
Even Mushroom Folk and the shy Grass Spirit on the ground jumped up and made happy chirping sounds.
"Long live your Majesty!"
"Red Emperor is here, and peace is here! Verdant Garden is saved!"
"Tear that bad Demon Wraith apart! Protect our home!"
They had no fear, but instead burst out with a welcome and admiration that was a hundred times warmer than before!
Garos was slightly startled, then suddenly realized.
Fairy Dragon has used his story to pave the way for enough awe and trust in advance.
Therefore, in the simple minds of these Fae, no matter how vicious the Garos looks, it is not the Evil Dragon that brings disaster, but the patron saint in the story who will protect them.
His gaze passed over the jubilant Faes and landed on the most familiar figure.
Fairy Dragon, Vera.
She looks to be in excellent condition. The dark spots that appeared due to birth Fate-Flow have long disappeared, and her scales are brightly colored and full of vitality.
More importantly, her life breath... has been firmly established in the Legendary Realm.
Returning to Fey Wilds will indeed be of great benefit to her recovery and growth.
At this moment, Fairy Dragon was also raising his little head, staring blankly at the magnificent dragon body with three heads and six arms in the sky, his eyes full of shock and amazement.
"This big guy... I haven't seen him for a long time, why did he become so... so exaggerated?"
Vera muttered in her heart, "And this form... it's so domineering! But, hee hee..." She suddenly snickered and the tip of her tail swung happily, "The stronger he is, the stronger I am! Hehe, I, Vera, will also become more powerful!"
Thinking of this, a bright and slightly proud smile appeared on her face.
After a while.
Garos has completely passed through the plane rift and set foot on the land of Verdant Garden.
"Red Emperor! Red Emperor! Red Emperor!"
Fae's cheers grew louder and louder. They crowded around the dragon, jumped up and down, and sprinkled more celebratory light powder and petals. The entire forest glade was filled with warm joy.
However, Garos didn't pay much attention to Fae's enthusiasm at the moment.
When he saw a brand new Outer Planes for the first time, all kinds of completely different feelings from Material Plane came like a tide, impacting his perception.
The first is vision.
The whole world appeared in his eyes, and it wasn't just the effect of True Eye.
The colors here are extremely saturated.
The green is an emerald green that seems to be flowing down. The stream is so clear that you can see every pattern on the cobblestones in the deepest part. The colors of the flowers are gorgeous, like oil paintings. Even the dust floating in the air is shining with a fine halo under some kind of soft light.
Everything is too clear and vivid.
It seems as if the entire world has been subjected to top-notch beautification and sharpening effects, which is completely different from the relatively calm and natural colors of Material Plane, with a dreamlike texture.
What follows is a change in perception.
Garos can clearly feel the "emotion" of the surrounding environment.
The ancient trees exude a sense of tranquility, contentment and protection; the streams flow with a light, singing joy; the soil under their feet conveys the generosity and calmness that nourishes all things... This plane itself seems to be immersed in an "emotional field".
Finally, it is also the point that concerns Garos the most.
Changes in his own emotional state.
As a dragon that controls power with reason, Garos has already tempered his emotions and will like refined steel.
Anger, joy, curiosity, vigilance... Of course he has these emotions, but they are usually restrained within controllable limits by strong reason and will.
They are rarely exposed, and they don't get out of control easily.
Here, however, things change.
In just a few dozen breaths after entering Fey Wilds, Garos felt that his emotions had become much more active than when he was in Material Plane.
Listening to the warm cheers of Fae, I saw those tiny creatures jumping for joy and dancing for his arrival, sprinkling colorful pollen, shaking branches and leaves in celebration...
A sense of satisfaction and joy grew involuntarily from the bottom of my heart, and my tail couldn't help but wag.
He even wanted to jump along to express his joy.
He could even taste the emotions of admiration and joy in the air. They were like the invisible fragrance of flowers, penetrating into his consciousness.
This is something unimaginable in Material Plane.
Not only that.
As Fae's emotions continued to rise, Garos also noticed changes in the surrounding environment.
Some flowers and plants became brighter at an abnormal speed, and some fruit trees even bloomed on the spot and produced plump fruits at a fast speed.
"Fey Wilds..."
Garos quickly analyzed in his mind, "One of the rules of this plane can amplify the emotional response of living beings, making the emotion itself more real and perceptible, and can even directly affect the reality."
His own emotions were indeed affected.
However, the current degree of influence does not affect his judgment and actions.
This is a novel experience.
But at the same time, he sensed the danger hidden in it.
"Not just the good emotions, but emotions like anger and destruction are also amplified."
Garos tried to wake up Frenzied Flame, and a lot of bloodshot eyes suddenly appeared at a speed ten times faster than usual. He was furious, but he reacted quickly. With his control, Frenzied Flame was quickly suppressed.
Here, all emotional reactions are more intense.
"Here, all emotional reactions are more intense, and the threshold for arousal and outburst is lower."
Garos thought to himself.
Kind people may become more kind and loving, while evil people... their malice and destructive desires will also be amplified simultaneously, making it easier for them to lose control.
"An... interesting place."
Garos made a preliminary evaluation of Fey Wilds.
Beautiful, active, and full of vitality, but also hidden with various risks that may be caused by emotional amplification.
As for whether this place is suitable as a target for the Aura Kingdom's future development... more observations are needed.
Buzz!
Red Iron Dragon's whole body glowed with light, and his body gradually shrank to about the size of Adolescent Dragon. He moved carefully to avoid stepping on flowers, plants or Fae.
Normally, he doesn't like to adapt to his surroundings.
However, Garos was in a very good mood and could not bear to destroy the beautiful scenery around him.
He knew that this considerate thought was somewhat affected by the rules of this place.
However, Garos did not reject this novel emotional experience within a safe range. Instead, he had the mentality of an experiencer and was willing to try and experience it.
"Go, go, get out of the way, don't be so tight!"
"Give me and mine... well, give us some space to talk alone!"
Vera flew over, waving his little claws, and began to drive away the overly enthusiastic Faes.
Although the little Faes were a little reluctant to leave, they still flew away happily and happily, landed on the branches or petals of the surrounding trees, and continued to look around with their bright eyes.
She flew to stand on Red Iron Dragon's shoulders and said with a smile, "Garos, my great Majesty Red Emperor, long time no see!"
After a pause, she exaggeratedly lengthened her tone and made famous gestures with her little paws.
"Wow, you've become... bigger and more... powerful! It's like a moving mountain! I'm so happy to have you here!"
Her joy was genuine, her tail swiping happily.
Red Iron Dragon tilted his head slightly and focused his eyes on this little person.
"Dear Vera "Sir", my "body"."
"It is my duty to serve you. After all, according to you, I am just a "clone" of yours. It should be natural for the clone to solve problems for the main body."
The giant dragon said with a half-smile.
Vera's smile froze for a moment.
"H-keep your voice down..."
She looked around with a guilty conscience and lowered her voice, "I... what bad intentions do I have? Isn't it just to spread your reputation and let your glorious deeds be heard in more places! Wait..."
"Why do you speak so strangely? You are so yin and yang... are you really the Garos I know?"
Vera squinted his eyes and looked up and down at the dragon head that was close at hand.
"Can't you even recognize your own "doppelgänger"?"
Red Iron Dragon tilted his head slightly, making an exaggerated expression of confusion.
"It seems that the main body is not sensitive to my changes."
"This is not good. As the great Red Emperor, you should know the status of your clone."
His tone had obvious ups and downs, and his final voice rose slightly, making him sound much more lively than usual.
While speaking, Red Iron Dragon also shook his neck gently, and his thick and long dragon tail was also patting on the ground. His body movements were much richer than those at Material Plane.
Vera on the opposite side widened his eyes.
She flew around Garos's head twice, looking at him carefully.
"Oh!"
She suddenly slapped her head with her paw and suddenly realized, "I know! It's the influence of Fey Wilds! I didn't expect that even a guy like you would have his emotions amplified by the rules here!"
She has been to Material Plane for a short time and is very aware of the differences between the two planes, especially the impact on emotions.
"Maybe."
Garos's head shook slightly again, with a sense of pleasure in his tone, "The rules here are very interesting and can make the mood brighter and more prominent."
"For example, I feel right now that seeing you look surprised and guilty is particularly... well, pleasant."
He bit the word "pleasure" very clearly, and at the same time, he patted the ground with the tip of his tail happily, not forgetting to carefully avoid a bush of plants with Blue Dragon flowers blooming.
Vera was choked and speechless for a moment, and his face bulged.
But then, she straightened her little body and tried to look confident.
"Hey! How guilty am I? I... I am obviously working hard to spread your heroic deeds, help you become famous, accumulate... er, accumulate reputation! The Faes in Verdant Garden, and some other places I heard about, now worship you! Don't you see how happy they are after seeing you?"
She stretched out her little paw and pointed at the little Fae who were still looking excitedly.
"Yes, they are very happy."
Garos's eyes swept over those Fae, his eyes softened a little, and his amplified sense of satisfaction made his favorability towards these little creatures increase.
"Thanks to you, I somehow became the patron saint of this place, and even attracted a Demon Wraith."
Speaking of Demon Wraith, the joy in Red Iron Dragon's tone quickly faded and was replaced by a coldness.
Fey Wilds's rules have also purified his displeasure and aversion to trouble. This emotion is like an unsheathed sword. Although it is not fully revealed, it can already make people feel chilly.
"... Well..."
Vera's momentum weakened, and his eyes began to wander, "That Demon Wraith, it, it doesn't follow martial ethics! It's a sneak attack!"
"Moreover, it was mainly attracted by the story of Red Emperor. Your name is too loud, so you are also responsible!"
She tried to spread the pot a little bit, but her voice became quieter the more she spoke.
In the end, she completely withered, her wings drooped, and she muttered and admitted, "Okay, okay... it's all my responsibility. I shouldn't tell stories everywhere, let alone make them so exciting."
Seeing the way she admitted her mistake, Red Iron Dragon grinned.
"My true body," he said, "Since I came in response to your call, my responsibility at this time is to take on your responsibilities for you."
"A little Demon Wraith, haha."
The dragon's voice deepened, becoming loud and arrogant, and a little eager to try.
"I'll wait for it to come here, come to me, and then... grind it to ashes."
Garos really had a strong interest in this special creature that was born from stories and lies and fed on them.
This was different from any creature he had encountered before.
He can't wait to get in touch with these unique existences of Outer Planes. Perhaps, this can bring him a new level of stimulation and a new level of evolution.
