Chapter 269 - 181: All Made Up

...

...

Kamas was stunned for a moment.

Looking at the smile on Luo De’s face, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

He looked at the Snow Rabbit person and asked, "What did that foolish human say to offend my master?!"

The Snow Rabbit person, seeing Kamas’s ferocious appearance, was not afraid and snuck a glance at the departing Luo De.

The Snow Rabbit person pursed his lips, lowered his voice,

"The lord thanks you for answering his doubts, the Bloodscale Tribe is in trouble now."

"I, I tell you, nonsense!"

Kamas shouted loudly, banging the fence hard, "I didn’t say anything!"

The Snow Rabbit person smiled but said no more.

He shook his ears and hopped away.

...

...

On the way back to the manor.

"Lord, are we protected by the great Lord of Frost?"

Gang Le asked softly, "Do we need to pray in the future? What kind of existence is that?"

Luo De looked at Gang Le’s serious expression and couldn’t help but laugh,

"Where did this Lord of Frost come from? I made it all up."

"Huh?"

Gang Le was momentarily dumbfounded and couldn’t help but ask, "Then why did you manage to bluff him with this Lord of Frost just now?"

"Is it because of what he said in that slogan before?"

"Yes."

Luo De casually explained, "His slogan indicates it’s an extraordinary being mastering frost."

"And the creature the Lizardmen believe in is likely not a human deity, they also claim to have dragon blood lineage."

Luo De chuckled, "Anyway, bluffing him won’t hurt. If we’re lucky, we might guess right."

Gang Le didn’t know what to say for a moment, and could only lament that the Lizardmen were unlucky to encounter Luo De.

"Lord Baron, the White Dragon is powerful, and the White Dragon that’s worshipped should be even stronger."

Durant solemnly said, "Whether it’s true or not, we can’t let the Lizardmen tribe succeed."

"Once the White Dragon is truly resurrected, it will be a disaster for the entire Northern Plain."

"Yes, no matter what the Lizardmen do, we can’t let them succeed."

Luo De agreed with Durant and immediately instructed, "Send someone to inform Baron Blom, tell him about the Lizardmen’s conspiracy."

"Tell him, based on the information extracted from the Lizardmen interrogation, the Bloodscale Tribe is resurrecting their powerful ancestor, and we need to disrupt their plans."

"There’s no need to mention anything else."

The Bloodscale Tribe is not easy to deal with, and Luo De doesn’t have the extra energy to handle it.

Besides, it’s the enemy of the entire Northern Wasteland, and Luo De can’t let his soldiers face it alone, sending them to their deaths alone.

But Luo De can’t tell them too many details, or else they might suspect how he knows.

The White Dragon might also scare other lords.

"Yes, Lord Baron."

Durant nodded solemnly and quickly hurried towards the manor.

"The sleeping ancient White Dragon..."

Luo De pondered what Kamas had said earlier.

There were many questions in his mind as well.

Is the ancient White Dragon really so powerful?

Can it remain in slumber for thousands or tens of thousands of years?

Did it seal itself in ice?

Why would it seal itself in ice?

"Let’s go, Vivian, let’s go back to the manor and check the records."

The doubts in his heart made Luo De uneasy and he couldn’t help but quicken his pace.

Back in the manor’s hall, Vivian arranged the tomes about magical beasts that Avril had taken out on the table, and immediately began searching for information about the White Dragon.

Dragon information was easy to find; the tomes had a separate Chapter on giant dragons.

"Giant dragons are among the oldest and most powerful creatures, possessing innate magic abilities, strong bodies, the ability to fly, and destructive breath skills."

"Giant dragons have high intelligence, very long lifespans, and many races willingly serve dragons, becoming their followers."

"White Dragons belong to the Five-Colored Evil Dragons and are the weakest and most beast-like among them."

"White Dragons master the power of frost, symbolizing winter and brutality."

"The longest lifespan of a White Dragon usually reaches several thousand years, but if possessing divinity, the lifespan can be infinite."

...

Vivian read the information from the tomes to Luo De, who couldn’t help but frown.

"If it’s immortal, why sleep?"

Luo De asked, "Does it say anything about that?"

"When encountering a strong enemy, suffering irremediable injuries leading to the loss of life or magic power, the White Dragon will seal itself in ice."

Vivian looked at the tome and said, "It seems there are many reasons, but if an array is required to awaken it, then it must have suffered severe lethal injuries."

"Otherwise, the White Dragon could awaken itself."

"Hmm, the reason for its slumber does align with ancient history."

The White Dragon was likely severely injured during the War of the Gods.

The information in the tome reassured Luo De

—at least it proves that the White Dragon won’t casually wake up on its own.

The bad news is, there really is a White Dragon hidden in the Icefield Mountain Range.

The good news is, that White Dragon was forced to seal itself in ice, likely having suffered a major injury.

As long as they can stop the Bloodscale Tribe’s array, the problem isn’t too big.

...

...

At night.

In the manor’s workshop, the shadows cast by the lights flickered back and forth on the walls.

Luo De sat at the table with a tome spread open—"Basic Teachings on Magic Plant and Magical Beast Breeding."

"So, the excrement of magical beasts is also a treasure?"

Luo De looked at Vivian next to him and asked.

"Yes."

Vivian’s finger slid across the pages, explaining word by word, "The residual magic in the excrement can nourish magic plants, far exceeding ordinary fertilizer in its effects."

"Most notably, Dragon Root Grass, which grows in dragon excrement, is very valuable."

"Fortunately, I’ve had the frost and thunder excrement collected by the people."

Luo De’s face revealed a "just as I thought" smile, "Those mutated demon rabbit droppings are also good stuff."
