The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming

The atmosphere inside the vehicle became heavy all of a sudden.

At this moment, Margaret Yule frowned slightly, her eyes filled withresentment as she stared at David Jones.

She had intended to give David the detailed map of Mountain Southshore’s Dungeon, and exchange contact information with him on his phone.

Now it seemed unnecessary, as she didn’t want to continue acting lovestruck.

Feeling Margaret’s gaze, David had no choice but to pretend as if nothing had happened and observe the surroundings.

There were a total of 10 people on the bus, most of whom were prominent figures from Waterland City Middle School N0.1. David was familiar with only two Trainers.

One was Oswald Maud, the refined young man he had competed against, and the other was the handsome youth he had encountered at the Trainer Guild.

As for why David had such a deep impression of this young man, it was purely because of the green Cloud-rising Cicada perched on his head.

The color of this Pet was really too eye-catching.

“However, apart from me, there doesn’t seem to be a single student from

Waterland Middle School No.2. How exactly are the qualifications for this Dungeon allocated?” David wondered to himself.

The awkward atmosphere between him and Margaret didn’t last long, as a well-dressed middle-aged man boarded the bus, surveyed the passengers, and said confidently: “Now that everyone is here, let’s set off!”

Hearing the familiar voice, David looked up and saw that it was actually

Guildmaster Maud who was leading the team this time.

Gavin Maud spoke with a gentle tone: “The fact that all of you here are selected as the first batch of rookie Trainers to explore the Dungeon means that you are among the best in Waterland City. 1 hope you can achieve substantial gains in the Dungeon.”

“However, before the benefits you may gain, remember that you only have one life.” Gavin’s tone then shifted, becoming somewhat serious.

“Whoever finds resources first claims them. I don’t want to see casualties due to resource disputes in this Dungeon exploration. Those who violate the rules will be expelled from the Dungeon, and some with severe misconduct will be punished. Understood?”

Gavin’s stern gaze swept over the surrounding Trainers.

The bus fell silent in an instant.

Although this low-level Dungeon was unlikely to have any incidents involving treasure-snatching and murder, Gavin still needed to intimidate these youngsters.

After all, the previous Dungeon in Longriver City served as a lesson. No one could have expected that such a small Class III Dungeon would hold such valuable rare Pets.

As a result, a regular Dungeon training session cost Longriver City two talented Trainer rookies.

After giving them a warning, Gavin then simply sat down next to Oswald, and continued in a gentle tone: “Next, I’ll explain further about the details of this

Dungeon.”

“They share the same last name and look similar. Could they be father and

son?”

As David observed the chattering Gavin and Oswald in the distance, a strange thought suddenly popped into his mind.

As the name Waterland suggests, the city is surrounded by picturesque mountains and rivers. Mountain Southshore, which is in the outskirts of Waterland City, is a small and insignificant peak with an altitude of only over

800 meters.

The ancient saying goes, “In the deepest of smoky labyrinths, bizarre lights rise amid forest rocks.” Hence, Mountain Southshore also gained the nickname of Mountain Purple Haze.

Legend has it that a long time ago, True Dragons soared through the clouds above this peak when it was shrouded in mist, attracting a large number of powerful beings.

Unfortunately, these Beasts who came out of admiration did not find any traces of the True Dragons, nor did the mountain have any powerful Beasts.

Thus, the rumors of the presence of dragons here became a trivial matter that people didn’t care about.

As time passed, Mountain Purple Haze became the desolate Mountain Southshore.

At this moment, the bus slowly stopped at the waist of Mountain Southshore. -Get off the bus. The mountain road ahead is not accessible by vehicle; you’ll have to walk.” After saying that, Guildmaster Maud got off the bus first.

Everyone on the bus became excited upon hearing this and began to queue up to get off the bus, following the seating arrangement they had been in. As soon as David stepped off the bus, he saw that the mountain peak in front of him was shrouded in a hazy, mysterious white mist.

Under the sunlight, the lingering mist in the distance even shimmered with a faint purple glow.

“Is this the purple haze? It’s so beautiful!” Margaret couldn’t help but exclaim

at the sight of the scenery.

“It’s beautiful, but Mountain Southshore has been desolate for years because it has no special Pets!” said David.

Although David also found the scenery pleasant, he didn’t pay much attention

to it.

Compared to landscape, he still found Pet resources more practical.

“The fog is thick, so we’d better follow Guildmaster Maud. Be careful not to get separated from the team!” David warned, as they were at the end of the line.

“Ah! Okay.” Startled, Margaret quickly caught up with the team.

For Trainers, this mountain peak wasn’t considered tall; within half an hour, they arrived at the top of Mountain Southshore, where the Trainer Guild’s stationed corps was entrenched.

“We’ve arrived. The small hill in front is the entrance to the Dungeon,” Guildmaster Maud said, turning around.

“Remember, wear the Void stone bracelet issued by the Guild at all times. In case of danger, you can trigger it to leave the Dungeon.”

“Or, when the three days are up, the bracelet will automatically teleport you out,” Guildmaster Maud reminded them lastly.

“By the way, if you lose the bracelet, you’ll be fined. Trust me; you won’t want to know the actual price of this item. Those who are ready may register and enter the Dungeon!”

Upon hearing this, everyone chose to enter the Dungeon as soon as possible, fearing they would miss out on the Snow Poll.

David’s position was still at the end of the queue; but luckily, there were only 10 people in total, so it was soon his turn.

Looking at the soldiers on standby in front of him, David handed out his

Trainer Badge.

“Enter!” The soldier in front of him waved after registration, signaling that he could pass.

David walked to the hill and saw a huge Rune Circle emitting a faint red glow in front of him, and above the Rune Circle was a hazy space gate about one zhang (approx. 3.3 meters) wide and long.

Even without getting close to it, he felt a faint cold breeze coming from the space gate.

“It seems that the environment on the other side is indeed freezing cold!” David sighed.

As he watched the Trainers stepping into the gate and disappear one by one, David didn’t hesitate and strode forward, entering the Dungeon gate.

“Humming…”

Perhaps due to the after-effects of the teleporting, David felt as if his head had been struck heavily, and he suddenly felt dizzy and unsteady on his feet.

It wasn’t until a gust of cold wind carrying snowflakes hit his face that he finally came to his senses.

“Hiss! It’s so cold!”

The drastic change in temperature made David shiver involuntarily as he was wearing summer clothes..
