Evil dragon has a warm heart
Chapter 602 - 602 600 Oasis Connection

Chapter 602: Chapter 600 Oasis Connection Chapter 602: Chapter 600 Oasis Connection “…At that time, I thought I was done for and could only think that if I died, Russell, you would definitely notice the changes in the Frost Domain and could lock down the Gloomy Dreamland… Never in my wildest dreams did I expect Sonbra to rush in…”

Inside the mind.

The Ouroboros Snake, Uroboros, was recounting everything that had happened on the Snowfield.

It and the Nightmare Beast, Senbula, had unfused with Russell and were floating in mid-air, watching the development of the Warm Enclave alongside him.

After advancing to Pseudo-Dragon, when they gained control of a trickle of elemental power, both it and Senbula had learned to fly, just not that quickly.

“At that time, when the spear fell, I no longer felt fear; Sonbra’s arrival allowed me to face life and death with the greatest courage. It was also then that I and Sonbra were blessed by fortune, finding the secret to ascending to Pseudo-Dragons.”

Then.

Together with Sonbra, they hovered between life and death and unleashed energy like never before, breaking through the limits of Phantom Beasts.

And the power from their mutual ascension to Pseudo-Dragons collided, causing a massive explosion of artistry that shattered the Frost Domain and hurled the Snow Trolls aside. That was the mushroom cloud Russell had just witnessed upon his arrival.

“How wonderful,” Russell couldn’t help but exclaim, “The moment the psychic link vanished, I truly thought I had lost you forever.”

“Now, I and Sonbra can finally help you, Russell,” Uroboros squinted its eyes, its version of a smile.

Its body had grown longer than ten meters and had evolved from silver-white to a faint gold color. Especially the tail, its golden hue far richer, clearly filled with extraordinary power—evidently a feature of a Pseudo-Dragon.

Sembula also expressed its excitement: “I’m one step closer to Princess Polly now!”

Its body had grown significantly larger, about the size of Polly’s original Unicorn form, making it somewhat mismatched for riding. The mane on its neck had also changed from blue to a blue-purple hue, with a richer texture.

“Alright, my friends, the story has been told. Now, let me see each of your marks,” said Russell, clapping his hands.

“I’ll go first!” Uroboros swiftly turned into a streak of gold light, entering Russell’s forehead.

The mark it transformed into was a golden rock-shaped insignia, but it had a different texture from Polly’s golden lightning mark. The lightning mark was more vivacious, while its mark was more stable, like a hefty rock.

Upon dissolving the mark, Uroboros coiled into a heap in the air.

Observing Uroboros coiled up, Russell said, “Hm, let’s call it the Lord of the Mounds mark.”

“Okay, I like that name, Lord of the Mounds!”

“That means we have to change the scientific name of your Ouroboros as well,” Russell said with a smile.

“But, I like the title Ouroboros, so how about this, Russell, call my former Phantom Beast form a Pseudo-Ouroboros Dragon?” Uroboros was reluctant to give up the Ouroboros name and proposed.

“Pseudo-Ouroboros Dragon will be the scientific name for the Phantom Beast Pseudo-Dragon Successor you will sire in the future. As for your previous Phantom Beast name, simply call it… Rattle Snake?” Russell teased, as there were no records of Rattle Snakes on Dragon Sleep Continent.

However, Uroboros readily agreed: “Mm-hm, call it Rattle Snake, I was a Rattle Snake before!”

So now, it was Pseudo-Dragon – Ouroboros!

After Ouroboros, it was Nightmare Beast Senbula’s turn, quickly becoming a streak of blue-purple light and branding onto Russell’s head.

This symbol was a single zigzag lightning bolt.

But it was distinctly purple, completely different from the golden lightning symbol previously formed by Polly. Both belonging to the Thunder Element, Sonbra and Polly were like two sides of thunder; Polly represented the bright side, while Sonbra represented the dark side.

“Er, Polly is already the God of Thunder, so you definitely can’t repeat that… How about we call it the Mark of the Lord of Thunderclap?”

After saying this, Russell always felt something was off.

But Senbula gladly accepted: “Princess Polly is the God of Thunder, and I am the Lord of Thunderclap, that’s great.”

After chatting for a while,

Russell saw that the development of the Warm Enclave below had formed an ocean in the midst of minor explosions, with some areas submerged by melting waters, while other areas revealed damp hills.

“This Warm Enclave, created by the combined power of the Ouroboros Snake and the Nightmare Beast within the art of explosion… And judging by its terrain, it should be a region of undulating low hills, yet there stands a high mountain over there.”

Russell looked into the distance, at the long mountain range running from northeast to southwest, ten kilometers from the epicenter of the explosion.

Not tall, but standing out like a crane among chickens amidst the surrounding low hills.

“Let’s just call it… Explosion Ridge.” Russell christened this piece of the Warm Enclave and then began to patrol the vicinity with the newly recruited two Pseudo-Dragons and the split corpse of the Snow Troll.

As a Phantom Dragon Knight, Russell’s perception of power had reached profound depths.

He could clearly sense the boundaries of the Oasis resonance in the Warm Enclave.

“Explosion Ridge is located right at the midpoint between two oases. Once the resonance of the Warm Enclave is complete, the land will merge, forming one seamless Oasis,” Russell squinted his eyes. “This is somewhat akin to the Scorching Torrent Kingdom.”

The Scorching Torrent Kingdom was formed by the resonance of two Volcanic Oases, connected by a narrow Cold Wind Corridor.

However, the situation here was more like an ostrich egg and a duck egg, with a quail egg wedged between them.

“With the creation of Explosion Ridge connecting north and south, the development of the small Green Oasis in Cloud Dream Marsh is immensely promising!”

Just build a railway.

One could then travel by train from Furious Wind City directly to Blackflame Plains, within reach of Red Castle and Cigar Manor day and night.

“Perfect!”

Russell laughed heartily.

…

“Ah, that feels amazing!” Inside the Shadowflame Volcano, the Shadowflame Dragon lay in the magma, eyes half-closed, emitting a soft moan.

The birth of two consecutive Pseudo-Dragons and the opening of a large Warm Enclave had injected it with power, breaking through its peak state and making it even more potent.

“Russell, you truly haven’t disappointed Shadowflame, not only have you brought delicious flavors to Shadowflame, your companions have likewise brought delightful tastes!” the Shadowflame Dragon murmured softly. “How exquisite!”

But soon.

It whispered again with eyes narrowed. “If not for the interference of Ice Cream, could Shadowflame become Russell’s only? Then all the benefits could be enjoyed solely by Shadowflame? However, Ice Cream is quite special; Shadowflame must handle it with care!”

In the past, it eagerly wished for the Little Dream Dragon to erupt into a volcano.

But now, it wanted nothing more than for the Little Dream Dragon to disappear, especially after trading its hope for the hope of the Meltdown Dragon, it no longer needed the existence of the Little Dream Dragon.

What a pity.

The Little Dream Dragon was right there, on the verge of a volcanic eruption.

…

In the depths of the Snowfield.

Shuang Da stood on a high peak, looking out toward the warmth in the north.

After a moment, he retracted his gaze and, addressing the Cold Frost Warriors around him, indifferently said, “Luo has died in the domain of the red giant bat; it seems the improvements to the Frost Domain have failed.”

“For the second time,” a Cold Frost Warrior glared at Shuang Da. “Da Pioneer Officer, you have proven your failure over and over.”

“Indeed!” another Cold Frost Warrior continued, “Officer Heda has already slain the old bat, using its Dragon Ball to summon a new Frost Legion. Da Pioneer Officer, if you fail again, we will leave as well!”

Shuang Da closed his eyes.

Then opened them again shortly after, his expression neither joyful nor sorrowful: “Don’t rush, Frost Star is about to reopen, and we will have more forces to replenish. The harvest has only just begun.”
