114: The dragon, João
Although Stanley had many questions in his mind, it was true that Melita and others were preparing to attack him.
If his mouth hadn't been wrapped by the python, rendering him speechless, he would probably be questioning Arthur and the others right now, asking why they would suddenly attack him in such an unsporting manner!
Melita and others also noticed Stanley's struggle, but they didn't care, because they were very confident in their Seal magic!
Under Stanley's horrified gaze, Melita began to chant, it seemed she intended to use a Forbidden Curse!
Through his Dragon Legacy, Stanley recognized the type of Forbidden Curse Melita was using, it was precisely
"Water System Forbidden Curse: Extreme Speed Water Severing Wave!"
This was a terrifying Water System Forbidden Curse, the principle of which was to mimic the terrifying cutting ability of water flow at extreme speeds.
Once the Forbidden Curse was completed, it would shoot out a water blade fifty centimeters wide and three kilometers long. The water blade was incredibly sharp, cutting through almost anything.
Even the hard scales of a Water Attribute Giant Dragon could be cut through with one strike.
With one strike, if the Water Attribute Giant Dragon didn't defend itself, its entire neck would probably be severed.
The water blade could also be moved in the hands of the mage, like a long blade several kilometers long with cutting properties. With a casual swing, a towering mountain peak would be cut in half.
It was truly terrifying!
Given Stanley's tragic immobilized state, it could be said that as long as the Forbidden Curse was unleashed, the Water Attribute Giant Dragon would surely die.
Stanley, the Water Attribute Giant Dragon, also knew this. Seeing his death approaching, he began to struggle desperately.
This caused the Seal chains Melita and others had placed on him to flicker in and out of existence.
This was a sign that the Seal had reached its limit!
Melita, seeing this, was not in a hurry and continued to chant unhurriedly.
Because she knew that this extreme state of the Seal chains could last for at least several tens of minutes.
For her Forbidden Curse, which only took thirty seconds to chant, it was more than enough.
Soon, thirty seconds passed. Since Extreme Speed Water Severing Wave was a relatively single-target magic, only a hundred-meter-sized magic circle formed in front of Melita!
Then, a half-meter thick, high-speed water current shot out from the hundred-meter magic circle towards the distance.
The sharp water current directly penetrated the rock wall around the trench, drilling out a bottomless hole.
Because the Forbidden Curse, Extreme Speed Water Severing Wave, only lasted for ten seconds.
After unleashing it, Melita didn't waste time and directly swung the incredibly sharp water blade towards Stanley's neck.
The moment the two met, there was a clang like metal striking metal, followed by a piercing sound of metal being cut.
From all indications, the Dragon's scales and flesh were indeed incredibly tough, making it difficult for even a Forbidden Curse to cut through them.
However, it was still cut open. In just two seconds, the Water Attribute Giant Dragon's several-meter-thick neck was split into two halves, and its head fell from its body.
From Stanley's huge and disbelieving Dragon eyes, it was clear that he hadn't expected to die in such a humiliating way.
As its head was severed, precious dragon blood sprayed from the Dragon's massive body.
Seeing this, the other two Mermaid Legendary figures, besides Melita, also didn't idle and began to collect the scattered blood.
In Arthur's estimation, various parts of the Dragon's body, such as blood, scales, Dragon Crystal, and Dragon meat, could all be sold as individual items in the Portable Shop.
Moreover, buying them separately like this would definitely be cheaper than buying a living Dragon.
After all, the former were just precious items, while the latter was a powerful Legendary.
So, under Arthur's instructions, Melita and others proceeded to dismember the Water Attribute Giant Dragon's body.
A moment later, Arthur held a nearly half-meter-sized blue rhomboid crystal in his hand, which was the Water Attribute Giant Dragon's Dragon Crystal.
Feeling the vast energy contained within the Dragon Crystal, he thought that this one item alone could sell for at least one hundred million gold coins.
After playing with it for a bit, Arthur happily put it into his space ring.
Although the Water Attribute Dragon's body was massive, standing fifty meters tall, Melita and others were all Legendary-level powerhouses, so the dissection speed was very fast.
In less than half an hour, the Water Attribute Dragon had been disassembled into various parts.
By now, Arthur's undersea journey was considered completely over.
Although Arthur really wanted to summon a Dragon immediately and experience what it felt like to be a Dragon Knight.
However, a Dragon had just been killed in the trench, and Arthur felt it would be inappropriate to summon its replica at this time, so he suppressed his desire.
It wasn't until the Dragon was dealt with, and they left the seabed to reach the surface of the sea.
Arthur finally couldn't suppress his excitement, spent one hundred million gold coins, and clicked the purchase button for the Water Attribute Dragon.
At the same time, a Dragon quite similar to the previous Water Attribute Dragon immediately appeared before Arthur.
Although Arthur had changed the Dragon's appearance before summoning it.
But Arthur looked at Dragons the same way he looked at other animals, finding it difficult to distinguish their appearances, so Arthur felt the two were similar.
The newly summoned Dragon, upon seeing Arthur, lowered its proud head, showing its deference to Arthur.
Seeing this, a sense of accomplishment welled up in Arthur. Watching the fifty-meter behemoth surrender at his feet was truly exciting!
As his first Dragon subordinate, Arthur formally asked for its name:
"Very good, Dragons are indeed majestic and extraordinary. What is your name?"
"Thank you for the compliment, Lord Arthur, my name is Joao Moutinho..."
Arthur listened to Joao speak for more than half a minute before he finished his name, and he couldn't help but sigh, Dragon names are really too long.
Joao also knew this, and after stating his full name, he added:
"Lord, you can just call me Joao normally."
Although there was a small interlude, Arthur's excited mood still hadn't subsided, and he continued:
"Joao, I've been looking forward to your arrival for a long time. Now, let me enjoy the feeling of being a Dragon Knight!"
"Yes, Lord!"
Joao, having agreed, directly extended his head under Arthur, making it easier for Arthur to get onto his back.
After protecting Arthur with a magic barrier once he was on its back, Joao soared into the sky, carrying Arthur to speed across the magnificent ocean.
A Dragon is indeed a Dragon; riding it was much more fulfilling and thrilling than riding Andel, who was merely a Two-Headed Wyvern.
Under Joao's Dragon might, wherever the two passed, whether it was flying birds or swimming fish in the sea, they all fled into the distance.
This allowed Arthur to truly 'borrow the tiger's might'!
Thus, Arthur, who only possessed Silver-level strength, also got to experience the thrill of being a Dragon Knight.
