Dragon Communion Failures

In the Arnor Kingdom, dragons are a rarity, so rare that news of their appearance attracts large crowds to watch.

At the same time, dragons are also a symbol of ultimate power. Apart from magic, few creatures can fight against dragons with their own strength alone.

If all supernatural factors suddenly disappeared from this world, given the current situation, the dragon race would probably be able to dominate for quite some time by relying on their physical prowess.

Wait a minute, isn't the very existence of dragons a supernatural factor?

Never mind all that.

A year ago, Lu Lu Wo could never have imagined that she would one day have to deal with dragons.

This is all thanks to my own hard work and the Zane Dungeon!

As Lu Lu Wo emerged from the dragon's lair, protected by a group of dragons, and thoroughly enjoying the attention of the people of the Imperial Capital, she couldn't help but hum softly, her mind filled with such thoughts.

To actually manage to connect with a legendary dragon, and to meet the chieftain of the Bipedal Dragon clan right from the start, the future looks incredibly bright!

Hmph, dragons, the rare dragon race. Now I'm one of the few humans who have spoken to such a rare race!

Not long after, Lu Lu Wo stopped feeling proud of it, because after walking around the street for a while, she suddenly realized...

"There are so many dragons here!"

I don't know if I've wandered into some strange place. It feels like there are dragons everywhere on the streets, and quite a few of them are humans that Dragon Communion have eaten. Every now and then, a dragon head will appear and roar.

Lu Lu Wo directly caused her to become desensitized.

Looking back, it seems that she used to spend every day with adventurers who had been with Dragon Communion, but now she doesn't seem to have that much longing for the dragon race anymore.

There have been far too many colossal creatures in the Zane Dungeon, and the dragons, well, their size doesn't seem to have any truly awe-inspiring impact on anyone.

"That's right, this is the main street where we often go to the Adventurers' Guild."

She looked up into the distance and suddenly realized a strange fact: the dragons' destinations all seemed to be the Adventurers' Guild.

Good heavens! Dragons are becoming adventurers! Are the standards for this profession finally going to be raised?!

"Captain, it seems we've been in the Zane Dungeon for quite a while this time," Bei Er Tuo said. "We've been so focused on exploring that we've lost track of time. And something has happened in the city these past few days."

"What?"

Subsequently, everyone quickly learned about the latest developments in the city from the team members who remained inside.

First, the loser of the Dragon Communion appeared.

The Great Dragon Feast Church has given various hints that you must personally challenge the dragon and then consume its heart for the Dragon Communion, but to some people this seems to be just a set of old-fashioned rules that are not worth following.

Therefore, whether they bought it from the market, hired someone to slay the dragon and seize its heart, or used other means, some people with mediocre strength obtained the dragon's heart and then Dragon Communion.

Those guys' Dragon Communion failed, and for a while no one noticed where they went.

Now, some of those people have finally appeared in the city, and their whereabouts have come to light.

[After I swallowed the dragon's heart, I felt immense pain, an unbearable pain. I was rolling around on the ground, just wanting it to end as soon as possible, and then I lost consciousness. When I came to, I found myself transformed into a dragon.]

Not only has my body turned into a dragon, but it's also as if a dragon's soul has been implanted inside me. I have absolutely no control over my body. These past few days, that dragon has been controlling my body, running rampant and engaging in all sorts of terrifying activities in the dungeon—it's undoubtedly hell!

I thought I was going to be a dragon and stay in the dungeon forever, but luckily I turned back after seven or eight days. God, this must be a mercy from heaven.

I've had enough. I'll never eat Dragon Communion again; this kind of thing isn't for me.

The above information comes from the Adventurers' Guild's interview records with those who failed in the Dragon Communion.

Previously, rumors circulated among adventurers that failing the Wolf Blood Trial of the Farron Guard could result in turning into a mindless werewolf and wandering the Zane Dungeon, but very few people had actually experienced it.

The sheer number of those who failed in the Dragon Communion now, their half-dead state frightening everyone, serves as a stark warning to those who harbored unrealistic fantasies about the Dragon Communion, and has curbed the rampant Dragon Communion Furious Rajang growing wildly within the city.

However, the negative effect of this dragon transformation has ironically attracted the attention of some strange enthusiasts, to the point that it has turned into a bizarre event like a "test of courage," which is another matter entirely.

"Bei Er Tuo, what do you think about us starting an event for the wealthy, where they can experience what it's like to transform into a dragon?"

"Captain is a genius, Captain is brilliant."

Another thing besides the Dragon Communion for the defeated is that the long-awaited War Festival of the Warrior Country has finally reopened.

The event is currently underway and Warrior from all over are battling it out in the arena.

However, the people of the Warrior Country have been witnessing far too much fighting and killing lately.

Putting aside the battles inside the Zane Dungeon, the Thirty Heroes of the Glory Dungeon release exciting match videos every day, causing a frenzy within a certain area, and this area is getting bigger and bigger, it looks like the Thirty Heroes are about to become a trend.

Against the backdrop of a series of battles, including battles against demigods, heroes, dragons, and Pokémon.

The pure human battles at the War Festival seemed rather dull and lacked novelty, resulting in surprisingly low discussion.

Those who are interested in War Festival now seem to have their attention drawn to something else.

That was their beloved "Great Court Magic Sage," Master Yuenka, who finally met in public with Professors Tu Erqi and others who came on behalf of the Magic Association.

Faced with Professor Tu Erqi's series of accusations of plagiarism, Yuenka presented evidence to refute each of the spells.

The two sides are currently engaged in a heated debate in the Imperial Capital.

This matter has attracted the attention of the vast majority of citizens of the Warrior Country, and has also drawn the attention of foreign countries. There is still no result.

It is said that Yuenka will quell the dispute on the day the War Festival ends, but it is unknown what methods he will use to do so.

Therefore, the most discussed topic is how our beloved master should preserve his reputation.

And how to save his Magic Faith Concentration, which was on the verge of bankruptcy and whose presence was about to disappear completely.

"Professor Tu Erqi, although I haven't had much contact with her, I still really hope she wins."

"What do you mean by that, Captain?"

"Last month, I heard that a new type of monster appeared in the country next to the Arnor Kingdom, which can drive people crazy and suck their souls. The locals were completely helpless against it, which led to a disaster. It was Tu Erqi who rushed over and used a magic called [Expecto Patronum] to quell the disaster. By the way, it is said that this magic also comes from Raya Lucaria."

Lu Lu Wo took out her wand and waved it casually, saying:

"That's why I really want to support Professor Tu Erqi. I think everyone who experienced the Black Eagle Rebellion incident would support her, since she helped a lot back then."

She led her companions into the Adventurers' Guild, then went straight to the second floor and asked the waiter for some drinks.

She only joined the guild because the Silver Rank adventurers here could participate in some "freebie" activities, such as drinking some high-grade wine for free, as long as they didn't go too far.

"Take a good rest for a couple of days."

Lu Lu Wo took a sip of the fine wine and felt refreshed all over.

"We'll coordinate with Dragon's Nest in a couple of days to get to know each other better, and then we can set off once Fudolin returns."

Their recently acquired cheap teammate Fudolin, was naturally not here; she stayed at the Dragon's Nest, making preparations for their departure with Abei and the others.

Our target is the Verdant Dungeon!

This time, I'm going to harvest all the delicious plants there!

Meanwhile, in the city lord's room in the Zane Dungeon.

Gong Qiying received a thank-you letter from Hai Nisi, and he read it aloud because the contents were so outrageous.

[The strange taste of the hybrid plants attracted many dragons to come and taste them. Although the majesty of the dungeon seems to have completely vanished, their Spirit Power is now countless. Now I feel like I could even support Lord Godwyn! Sorry, sorry, I was just joking. Anyway, thank you again for your help Godwyn!]

"Was it used as a canteen by the dragons because it's a hybrid plant?"

Although one can sense Hai Nisi's lingering regret between the lines, it seems that what she desires is a dungeon that is revered and feared like Sein's.

"But this is fine too."
