Chapter 488: Chapter 464: Chosen for the Pact (Double-Length)

"I want to forgo this opportunity for the contract rights! Let my four teammates participate instead!"

He wanted to forgo it?

Samir was slightly stunned.

"Optimist, you want to forgo it?"

The few people with Hu Lu were also surprised.

However, soon enough, Optimist gave a satisfied smile.

As he patted the head of a baby dragon, he said,

"I want to participate in the later adolescent dragon’s voluntary contract!"

With those words, Boxed Lunch and the others immediately understood what he intended to do.

Hu Lu’s eyes lit up, and he quickly gave a thumbs-up,

"You got it, quite righteous!"

Hearing their exchange, the crowd of players below the stage began to discuss,

"What does that mean? Optimist wants to give up the chance and participate in the later voluntary contract?"

"Foolish! Is there even suspense here? In this situation, a dragon will absolutely choose him! Optimist doesn’t even need to use their team’s spot! Moreover, in the end, it’s uncertain whether the dragon chooses him or he chooses the dragon!"

"So that’s how it is... Wait, does that mean Boxed Lunch’s team will have two dragons?!"

"Jealousy..."

"Sigh, that leaves only three left..."

"The Golden Dragon will definitely be picked, won’t it? Jealousy..."

"Sour, so sour..."

The players below wailed, and the air was thick with the scent of lemon.

Amidst the crowd, Eve raised an eyebrow slightly.

Optimist’s approach was quite clever.

However, she didn’t intend to stop him.

After all, luck was a form of strength too.

After Optimist withdrew, the selection for Boxed Lunch’s team began again.

The predetermined contract rights had priority over the dragon’s voluntary selection.

Despite Optimist eagerly eyeing that Golden Dragon, with visible tension and longing, the draw still commenced...

"It’s the Bronze Dragon."

A moment later, Samir unfolded the drawn slip.

Optimist breathed a slight sigh of relief.

However, feeling his reaction might have been excessive, he awkwardly rubbed his nose.

Once the result was out, Samir used Divine Arts to temporarily confine a few baby dragons.

Then, he communicated with them using dragon language.

The newly hatched baby dragons couldn’t speak dragon language yet.

However, they had already received inheritance; even if they couldn’t speak, they could understand.

As for Samir, it was Mother Goddess who passed down the dragon language to him.

After conversing with the Bronze Dragon and demonstrating some of the Goddess’s Divine Arts, the Bronze Dragon nodded obediently.

Subsequently, he released the Bronze Dragon from confinement.

Regaining its freedom, the Bronze Dragon turned its gaze back to Boxed Lunch and the others.

Its eyes roved over the four, and they all looked tense.

Even Boxed Lunch put on a serious face, clenching his hands, clearly not calm inside.

The baby dragon’s gaze lingered over the four players for a while, eventually focusing on Boxed Lunch and Chopin.

A hint of human-like dilemma appeared on its youthful face.

Then it crawled forward and sniffed the two...

It circled Boxed Lunch and Optimist once, finally stopping in front of the former.

Boxed Lunch’s expression seemed even more stiffened.

The other players were somewhat disappointed.

Though disappointed, they quickly adjusted and began congratulating Boxed Lunch.

The dragon’s choice of Boxed Lunch was well-deserved.

After all, Boxed Lunch was the top combat player on the entire server, with the highest rating and richest combat experience, having slain countless creatures.

However, just when everyone thought the Bronze Dragon would choose Boxed Lunch, a surprise came.

The little dragon sniffed at Boxed Lunch once more, frowning slightly.

Hesitating, it stepped over again and stopped in front of Chopin, who looked as if he were dreaming.

Then, it lowered its head slightly, and a Magic Array with a faint glow appeared, enshrouding both the person and the dragon.

Soon, a new item appeared in the magic pet list within Chopin’s line of sight—

[Dragon Companion: Bronze Dragon (Baby Dragon)]

"Is it choosing me?"

He was utterly surprised.

The players below were all taken aback,

"It didn’t choose Boxed Lunch?"

"What a pity..."

Seeing the dragon ultimately chose Chopin, both Hu Lu and I Am Invincible were also surprised.

They knew that Chopin was a Druid, specializing more in healing, and arguably the least skilled among them.

And according to what they had heard from Little Xian Miao, dragons, under equal conditions, would usually lean towards the most powerful individual who best aligned with their attributes.

This was what Mairrel told Little Xian Miao.

By the way, this was the general case.

For dragons, emotions could be cultivated.

But most of the time, dragons didn’t have the luxury to nurture emotions with humanoid beings before signing a contract.

It’s like considering conditions first in an arranged marriage before thinking of fostering emotions...

The relationship between Little Xian Miao and Mairrel was an exception.

Moreover, since Black Dragon Mairrel was already under contract with the Goddess, she couldn’t become Little Xian Miao’s dragon partner again...

Of course, under Black Dragon Mairrel’s soft persuasion, Little Xian Miao gave up coming to sign a dragon companion contract.

After all, although they hadn’t signed a contract, they were almost like real partners.

Returning to the present.

Precisely because Boxed Lunch was the strongest among them, and since none of them were proficient in lightning attribute magic compatible with the Bronze Dragon, players instinctively thought it would choose Boxed Lunch.
