121: Magical boss
However, besides discovering many more Ocean Magic Frogs, there were no other unusual movements.
But he soon realized that the bodies of the Ziqiang Society members he had killed earlier were all gone.
He didn't know if they had been eaten by these Ocean Magic Frogs, or if Wang the Blacksmith, that old fox, had secretly moved them away.
Ye Xiao was more inclined to believe the latter.
And Ye Xiao was naturally happy to see such a discovery.
After all, this proved that Wang the Blacksmith had not left here.
After understanding this, Ye Xiao quietly left Linhai Village. He did not attack the Ocean Magic Frogs inside, naturally fearing to alert them.
Soon, Ye Xiao stood outside the Dense Forest again, a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
Besides this, the only places in the entire Novice Area with Level 90 monsters were some secret realms.
But these secret realms were all under the control of the Zhao family, and without the Zhao family opening them, Ye Xiao couldn't enter.
However, after his recent exploits, there shouldn't be any monsters in the outer perimeter of the Dense Forest for a short while; even if there were, it would only be a few scattered ones, not enough to support his equipment purification.
To continue hunting monsters not lower than his own level, he could only go deeper.
"As long as I don't go too deep, I shouldn't encounter a boss."
Ye Xiao murmured, quickly making a decision.
Keep grinding!
Anyway, he had Void Phantom and Red Moon Space; even if he encountered a boss, he could leave calmly.
He refused to believe that once his attributes increased further, he still couldn't defeat Wang the Blacksmith.
With this thought, Ye Xiao entered the Dense Forest again.
However, what surprised him was that he had already entered the middle section of the Dense Forest, yet he couldn't find a single monster.
"This shouldn't be? Could it be that the commotion I caused on the outer perimeter scared away the monsters here too?"
Ye Xiao frowned and looked around.
After walking for a few minutes, he soon stopped.
Going any further, he estimated, would be close to the boss's forbidden territory.
Ye Xiao sighed helplessly, having found nothing along the way, which disappointed him greatly.
"It seems there really are no monsters here; I can only leave for now."
Thinking this, Ye Xiao turned to leave.
Suddenly, a loud dragon roar erupted from within the Dense Forest.
Immediately after, a massive shadow, covering the sky, instantly enveloped the entire sky above the Dense Forest.
"Boss?"
Ye Xiao looked at the colossal creature radiating golden light above him, greatly alarmed.
Without any hesitation, he immediately activated Void Phantom.
His speed was instantly pushed to the limit, and within a few breaths, Ye Xiao had already darted to the outer perimeter of the Dense Forest.
However, what Ye Xiao didn't expect was that the colossal creature seemed to be able to see the direction of his escape, and then, with a speed completely unsuited to its body, appeared ahead of Ye Xiao's retreat path.
Ye Xiao, in the Void, watched this scene, his eyes widening.
At this moment, he had no time to think, and with a turn of his body, he retreated in another direction.
But something strange happened; the colossal creature didn't seem to move, yet it miraculously appeared again in the direction Ye Xiao was leaving.
And this time, the colossal creature suddenly spoke.
"Human, don't run anymore..."
It could talk?
Ye Xiao was startled and quickly changed direction again.
Unfortunately, no matter how Ye Xiao evaded, the colossal creature seemed to have a tracker, always one step ahead, blocking his path.
Ye Xiao tried several times, realizing he couldn't shake it off, and cursed inwardly.
He had considered countless possibilities, but he never expected this boss could detect his presence in the Void.
This was clearly a different dimension; how did the other party discover him?
At this moment, the colossal creature blocked Ye Xiao once more.
However, before Ye Xiao could react, it spoke again.
"I told you to wait, you make it so hard for me to chase you..."
"I'll wait for your sister!"
Ye Xiao cursed in his heart and quickly changed direction again.
Perhaps the colossal creature was getting impatient; seeing Ye Xiao escape again, it immediately let out an angry roar to the sky.
Immediately after, a transparent barrier instantly appeared, completely enveloping Ye Xiao, who was trying to escape.
Ye Xiao, in the Void, suddenly found himself trapped and was extremely shocked.
However, Ye Xiao remained quite calm. If Void Phantom couldn't evade this boss, then Red Moon Space should work, right?
However, just as Ye Xiao was about to enter Red Moon Space, a colossal creature, glowing with golden light, inexplicably appeared before him.
This time, the colossal creature's speech became extremely fast, as if fearing Ye Xiao would run away again.
"Wait, I'm not going to eat you; I want to ask for your help."
As if worried Ye Xiao wouldn't believe it, the colossal creature, enveloped in golden light, even took a few steps back to prove the credibility of its words.
And this sudden action indeed made Ye Xiao's movements pause slightly, a look of suspicion appearing on his face.
He didn't know if the colossal creature could really see Ye Xiao's expression, but it quickly said, "I'm not lying to you; I really need your help. Otherwise, just now, one indiscriminate dragon's breath from me could have melted you."
...
Listening to the other party's words, Ye Xiao was momentarily at a loss for words.
At this moment, the creature in front of him had dispersed the golden light wrapped around its body, revealing its original appearance.
As a result, when Ye Xiao clearly saw the appearance of this colossal creature, he immediately cried out, "A Dragon?"
It was no wonder Ye Xiao was so shocked. Legends of the Dragon race had always existed in Eternal World, and some people had even discovered dragon skeletons.
But no one had ever truly seen a living Dragon until now.
This was also why, earlier in Red Moon Space, when Ye Xiao was choosing a hidden profession, he directly ruled out Dragon Language Mage.
He never expected to see one here today.
How could he not be surprised?
At this moment, the Dragon's information also appeared in Ye Xiao's line of sight.
--- ---
[Golden Dragon (Special Type)]
[Level: 200]
[Health: ???]
[Attack: ???]
[Defense: ???]
[Skills: ???]
[Description: ???]
--- ---
As a result, a series of question marks utterly confused Ye Xiao.
However, the prominent Level 200 was enough for Ye Xiao to confirm that the Dragon in front of him was the boss of this Dense Forest.
However, he did indeed find that this Dragon seemed to bear him no ill will.
Being the first time he encountered such a creature, Ye Xiao was quite curious about it. So, he did not continue to hide, but his vigilance did not subside.
"What do you want?"
The Dragon seemed to let out a sigh of relief upon hearing Ye Xiao speak, then said, "You've been making quite a commotion here these days; to be honest, it's a bit noisy."
Ye Xiao: "..."
So he had been working right under the Dragon's nose the whole time; he thought he was only on the outer perimeter of the Dense Forest and shouldn't alarm the other party, but it turned out he had overthought things.
But if it was because of this, the Golden Dragon should have acted long ago and wouldn't have waited until now.
Although he was puzzled, Ye Xiao didn't speak but quietly waited for the Golden Dragon to continue.
Seeing Ye Xiao remain silent, the Golden Dragon seemed a bit anxious and said, "Don't you think disturbing me is a very bad thing?"
"Oh, sorry." Ye Xiao didn't quite understand the other party's meaning, but he still said straightforwardly.
"Uh... that's it?" The Golden Dragon was a bit speechless.
Ye Xiao was even more confused, "Then what else do you want?"
At this moment, the Golden Dragon seemed a bit anxious, "My point is, shouldn't you give me some compensation?"
Ye Xiao was a bit bewildered; it was the first time he had seen a boss ask a human for compensation, so he asked with a wry smile, "What kind of compensation do you want?"
Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, the Golden Dragon's face miraculously showed a human-like expression, and it said somewhat shyly, "I want to be your pet."
