Chapter 171: Summoning a New Companion

The time when the protagonist encountered the Karmic Flood Dragon was during the Second Newbie Mountain Weekly merging, and at that time, it was a newly-hatched Level 50 Infant Boss that a 30-player and natives team encountered while exploring an area near a Level 30 dungeon called Frost Cavern and was wiped out by its single breath.

And after the boss found out the energy the players give is beneficial to its growth and development, it went to hunt players and besiege territories. Despite its baby status, a dragon was still a race that possessed magic nullification and high defense, and even Xun Mingsheng and other emerging powerhouses had a hard time dealing with it.

It was only after spending a lot of one-time high-tier magic scrolls and sacrificing troops that they were able to injure it, and it retreated back to its lair, which was the pond they looted, but its appearance was very different than in the novel.

The cave was so big and inaccessible because of its poisonous properties that if it weren’t for the ’karmic’ word in the prompt and the lotuses, she wouldn’t be able to recognize it.

And after the Boss was fatally wounded, the Death Envoy Protagonist intercepted it midway, killed it, and then used his unique exclusive skill, Death Extraction, to absorb its soul and successfully gain the karmic fire.

Beside being a powerful skill, karmic fire, belonging to the ranks of the legendary class, was a special kind of flame used in alchemy and blacksmithing to increase success rates and melt down the hardest materials that couldn’t be melted by other alchemy fires.

This allowed the latter to accumulate a lot of equipment and elixir, which he used as funds to build his army through Li Jingnan with the main purpose of destroying Xun Minsheng and his Black Corps.

And now...

To make the pancake and omelet, the egg was broken, with its yoke stirred, mixed with other ingredients, and cooked in the burning hot oil and intense heat.

The dragon couldn’t be any deader than that, with no possibility of revival. Even a phoenix egg that had the ability to rise from the ashes would not survive it.

Li Chunhua only had a wish for the karmic dragon, who had already become a meal.

Reincarnate and make its egg more beautiful next time so it doesn’t get mistaken for a duck egg.

The two of the beneficiaries of the omelet and pancake were staring at the egg dishes and had not moved their chopsticks for a minute now, and only the little ginseng was chomping down alone, looking at them suspiciously, especially its master, who usually eats with her black-hole devouring innate ability.

The expressions on their faces were those of mourning, as if they had lost something important.

"Ji ji ji." (Master, the food is getting cold. If you don’t want it, I’ll take them all.)

The ji ji ji snapped them out of their thoughts.

Long Haoran picked up his chopsticks and stuffed Li Chunhua’s bowl with a little bit of each dish. "This is a drag...egg lotus pancake. Try it." Somehow he couldn’t bring himself to tell her it was a dragon because he himself was also processing what had just transpired.

[Crispy Blood Lotus Root and Karmic Dragon Egg Pancake, Grade: S+

-Grants immunity to F-C Level Fire Skill and increases 2% random stats. Cap at 10.]

[Sauteed Slices of Lotus Root and Karmic Flood Dragon Omelet: Grade: S+

-Grants immunity to the F-C Level Poison Skill and increases random stats by 3%. Cap at 10.]

Recalling its staggering amount of essence demand, Long Haoran pinched the bridge of his nose. So it was not a chicken egg that got lost.

Nevertheless, he was still able to obtain stats from it, which was good. Long Haoran also started eating, and the spicy and curry taste painted his lips redder.

Since the situation was already irreversible, Li Chunhua patted both of her cheeks out of tiredness and decided to burn green leaves for its afterlife later.

However, Li Chunhua was very excited about being able to gain a combat type. A dragon!

How could she not be happy about this?

With a dragon around, she could travel around riding its back, glide through the clouds, and rest all she could, leaving all of the defending to the dragon.

To whoever left that egg in the pond, thank you so much!

Her chopsticks didn’t stop picking the eggs and lotus roots as the series of notifications flooded her ears. The subtle sweetness, mild flavor, and crunchy texture of the lotus root blended well with the spicy, peppery, and meaty goodness of the egg, striking her foodie heart. It would be good if there was more of the egg!

In the middle, Li Chunhua sipped the tea and sighed in satisfaction before uttering a question. "It’s so delicious, Chef Long. Did you open a restaurant in the past? "

Long Haoran stopped eating when he heard her question. "I did."

"Then it must be full of customers all the time. You even cook better than those chefs in the imperial... I mean Capital City." After Li Chunhua nearly blurted out an inappropriate word, she didn’t ask any more questions and resumed eating.

That was close. She sighed.

[You’ve gained +10...+ 10...+10...+10]

[You’ve gained +17 Str points.]

[You’ve gained +15 Agi points.]

[You’ve gained +21 Def points.]

[You’ve gained +23 Int points.]

[You’ve gained...]

[You’ve gained Fire immunity passive skill. Applicable to F-E-level damage received.]

[You’ve gained the poison immunity passive skill. Applicable to F-E-level damage received.]

Woah!

Li Chunhua was surprised. Another two skills!

Is this because of her class or something else?

In an angle she couldn’t see, Long Haoran’s eyes flickered, and he planned to write another word later in his little notebook regarding her strange origin: Imperial.

What something ’imperial’ is she implying?

Long Haoran heard the prompts notifying him that he had acquired new skills and quickly finished his meals to check his class interface.

Meanwhile, Li Chunhua, after wiping out all the lotus and egg dishes and feeling fully satiated, was able to fill the necessary requirement for summoning.

[Essence: 100/100]

[It is detected that the particular food item’s essence is enough. Does the player wish to conduct summoning?]

Li Chunhua smiled and was about to click yes when she received an urgent message.

[You’ve received a message from your friend, Ten Thousand Autumns.]

[Ten Thousand Autumns]: Landowner Baozi, the territory is under attack! We are still in the wilderness and won’t be able to head back in a few hours.

[Little Baozi]: Uncle, stay where you are and let me investigate it first. Tell the aunties and natives not to go outside the barrier and wait for me.

[Ten Thousand Autumns]: Alright, I’ll tell them. Be safe.

Li Chunhua closed the chat and stood from the rock she was sitting on and informed Chef Long and the Little Bumblebee Ginseng. "We need to go back. Someone is attacking the salted fish territory."

Long Haoran’s eyes narrowed, and he closed his class interface. "Let’s go."

"Ji ji ji." Little Ginseng climbed onto Li Chunhua and hugged her chest.

On one of the planets located in the Xenon Galaxy, millions of light-years away from the main game planet, a tall creature whose body was shrouded in black flames looked angrily at the dull red crystal floating on one of the three stone platforms inside a dimly lit, crude, and old stone temple.

It let out a long and horrific howl, causing a tremor to occur and nearly destroying the place, before calling its subordinate. "Someone come!"

Another figure covered in flames, but with smaller intensity, came and saluted the angry creature.

"Greetings, My Liege, what is your command?"

"Head to the Treasury, trade a pass for the Green Planet, and send someone to investigate who killed my karmic flood dragon! I spent a lot of resources for it to be sent to that place, only for someone to ruin my hard work."

"But a pass is very expensive..."

The black fire around the tall creature became bigger, causing the other to tremble and swallow what he’s going to say.

"Yes, my liege."

(A/N: Little Baozi, the protagonist, aka trouble-magnet aura, is affecting your salted fish life.)

On the edges of the five-meter wide trenches, more than hundreds of Silver-Back raptors surrounded the territory and eyed the odd colorful walls and the sweet smelling trees with interest.

The Aunties and Natives were on the entrance of the barrier, silently monitoring the situation outside out of fear.

"My gosh, why have they come for us? Isn’t the monster tide still two days later?" One of the Aunties anxiously said. Compared to the mosquitos back then, this time was scarier. Anyone of those creatures can kill them instantly if not for the barrier.

Aunt He was also clutching the corner of her apron in distress while looking at the number of monsters. "I also don’t know. Just contact everyone not to come here until the monsters dispersed."

"I already did but..."

Suddenly, the ground under their feet trembled and something silver emerged from under the soil, drilling its way out.

The more they they observed and the more seconds passed, the more they were terrified because the hole was so big and frost started to form on the land.

The soil and rocks flew hitting the barrier and the crocs crawled towards corner to give way to their ancestor.

"Oh my..." The aunties gasped as they saw the gigantic silver alligator.

[Ice-Mutant Silver-Back Raptor Level: 35 (HP: 47,000/47,000)]

The huge croc boss sensed two descendants inside and snarled coating the area its breath hit with icicles.

"You two there, attack the two-legged creatures and bring me their leader."

Aunt He and the others heard the Boss’ words and were petrified when they recalled the livestock crocs living on the flimsy wooden fence. If those two decided to follow they will be in trouble.

The vegan crocs heard it too but when they recalled the water dragon, they bleated in disgust.

"Meh Meh!" (In your dreams!) They were more afraid of the landowner than their ancestor.

The Boss: "..."

---

Meanwhile, the three also arrived three hundred meters from the mountain top and Li Chunhua stopped and checked the situation by her sensitive qi-enhanced sight and was astounded when she saw the boss.

(⊙ˍ⊙)

Isn’t this the final boss of the Frost Cavern Dungeon, why is it here?

Wait, if the other side is an ice-element monster, won’t this be a good training partner for my new summon?

[It is detected that the particular food item’s essence is enough. Does the player wish to conduct summoning?]

Li Chunhua clicked on yes.

A magic circle appeared under her feet and a suffocating pressure covered the whole mountain.

The Silver-back Boss was alarmed.

(Little Baozi: Thank you for the gifts dearies jllopez, and BowsetteIRL. Guess what the summon will be? (づ￣ 3￣)づ)
