Chapter 73: Titan Dragons

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lu Zhiyu placed the dinosaur egg on the shelf and researched the origins of the egg. It was from a small carnivorous dinosaur called Sinosauropteryx. Lu Zhiyu took the dinosaur genes from the egg, then combined the dinosaur genes with bird and insect genes. This way, he created a template for Titan Dragons.

The bodies of the Titan Dragons were created based on aerodynamics theories and a bird’s body structure. Lu Zhiyu used a sleeker model, giving the dragons a beautiful form. Paired with the shiny scales, they had the feeling of a fantastical epic.

On top of this foundation, Lu Zhiyu also fused the deified cells of a mythical creature called the Ancient Dragon God with an ovum to eventually produce the dragon egg. From the very moment the dragon egg’s consciousness developed, he combined the deified cells and the consciousness of the Titan Dragon. The complete Titan Dragon template and the imprint containing memory inheritance were all flooded into the consciousness of this tiny fetus.

Lu Zhiyu could feel the mind immediately become active. Despite not being born yet, it already had all the memories and traits it would inherit from the Titan Dragon. According to Lu Zhiyu’s design, they were an ancient race of dragons from the astral world and had their own language. Even the newborn dragons would be able to use spells of the dragon language.

Because a real Ancient Dragon God’s template was way too powerful, Lu Zhiyu decided that he would divide the Titan Dragons into five subspecies, each of which would have a different color and a different power. Other than the slight difference in their appearances, there would also be clear differences in abilities. Lu Zhiyu had also modified their throats so they could digest food and spit out fire.

The different subspecies would have different personalities and mental capacities as well. Lu Zhiyu also added in the greediness and affection of treasures of the dragons into the genetic level.

The white dragons could control ice and water vapor. As these dragons evolved, they could even control air and the atmosphere. The red dragons could control fire, green dragons could control wind, black dragons could control water, and blue dragons that lived in the deserts and could control the earth and sand. All these dragons were real sapient creatures with high intelligence.

Because of the differences in the dragons’ living environments, Lu Zhiyu wasn’t planning on placing them in specific locations. Instead, he used the dimensional gate to send them out. Of course, he would place them far away from where people were located, such as the unnamed and uninhabited islands in the middle of the ocean, the vast, empty deserts on the continent of Alen, and the deep, dark forests on the continent of Yala.

He spent a few more months observing these dragons and collecting stats relating to them. He verified that he had not made a mistake in creating deity this way and was satisfied.

All the deities and magical beasts he had created before had supernatural power as well, but they didn’t have room for growth. All of them were very powerful when they were born, and they would remain that way. Their strength was set in stone when they were born, and they could never increase it.

Lu Zhiyu combined the dragons’ cells with the imprints of deified cells and then placed imprint the inheritance into the defied cell. This way, he made sure that these dragons could continuously grow stronger and form an evolution system for the deities.

The shells of the dragon eggs were all very strong, almost as strong as metal. But when the dragons were ready to be born, the eggs would secrete a special fluid that would soften the eggshells, allowing the baby dragons to be born. After they were born, the dragon babies would consume the shells. The special components in those shells would help the newborn dragons grow their scales.

After some more experiments, Lu Zhiyu scattered the eggs throughout the world and only kept a red dragon for himself. Most of these dragons were very developed in the eggs already. Soon, these dragons would hatch and become the first generation of Titan Dragons in Maria’s World.

The Luhmann Kingdom’s Rosa d’Oro family was the first marine family a hundred years ago and were among the first to gain riches from sea trade. Back then, they were a top family in Luhmann Kingdom that had countless riches and fleets. Their control over the sea routes especially helped the eighth head of the Rosa d’Oro family, George Elvis, become the king’s Master of Coins.

Back then during their richest times, it was rumored that the Rosa d’Oro family was rich enough to buy the entire kingdom if they wanted to.

However, the family started going downhill ever since the time of George Elvis. Thirty years previous, the brother of the head of the family, Shrode Elvis, was killed by the Children of the Sea during one of his expeditions, and the ships disappeared. Another fleet also went missing. This was a great hit to the family. They lost a dozen ships and goods, as well as sailors who’d been loyal for decades.

The family lost their sea routes as more Children of the Sea began to appear. The family’s entire trade coalition was built on sea trade, and it fell apart due to this. Their old enemies also resurfaced and kept attacking them. Because of this, they not only lost a vast amount of wealth, they also lost the Master of Coins position they’d gained over the years.

In less than thirty years, the prosperous family had gone from able to buy the country to being too insignificant to speak of. The earl of Elvis had become a mere baron. The lord of a huge territory became the overseers of a few small border villages. Two of the fishing villages couldn’t even afford to pay taxes.

The large family dwindled down to not even two dozen members, and its heirs had lost their pride as they fought over a position with meager income. They’d completely forgotten about their past glory.

The last remaining members of the family were all gathered in a broken castle, discussing who the family seat should go to. The baron’s wife stood on a podium and announced loudly, “The person that can conquer the ocean will become the patriarch!”

“What does that mean?”

“What constitutes ‘conquering the ocean’?”

“Go into the sea and kill a sea monster. Bring its corpse back,” the baroness read from the will. “That is his last wish. Anyone who can accomplish it will be the next baron!”

The castle instantly fell into uproar. One of the heirs went forward. “Was Father mad? It’s impossible! We have no ships; we only have small fishing boats. We have no sailors; we only have fishermen. We have no powerful Bloodline Knight guards either. There is no way we can kill a monster!”

“That is impossible. Does he think we’re the Rosa d’Oro family from before?”

They all discussed animatedly. The entire family seemed to believe the late baron was mad. He’d always fantasized about their previous glory. The Elvis family had risen because of the sea and then fallen due to the sea monsters.

The baron wanted the family to recover its name, so he made this crazy will to find someone who could help the family get back on its feet again. But to the current family, it wasn’t possible. It was only to kill one sea monster instead of the supernatural Children of the Sea, but it wasn’t something a regular man could do. They would at least need a powerful fleet, powerful weapons, and strong Bloodline Knights to accomplish it.

Suddenly, a young man wearing armor burst into the room. He hurried over to the baroness and took off his helmet. It was the third son of the late baron who’d gone to the army. He’d rushed back after learning of his father’s death.

“I, Rooney Elvis,” he announced loudly, “am willing to complete father’s quest.”
