Chapter 40 Sneak Into Storm Valley, Dragon Egg About to Hatch

Su Chen had gained a lot from the Dark Invasion this time and obtained a lot of information about Storm Valley.

Most importantly, with the help of Firestorm, the spoils of war this time far exceeded any of the previous times.

The large amount of loot was enough to exchange for a number of cultivation rooms in the Dark Store, which could be placed in every Dark Castle.

The reward for the successful territory invasion had just arrived.

( Invasion of the Land of Thorns was a success. Reward obtained: [ Clarity )

[ Clarity can restore the consciousness of an object that has fallen into a frenzy and is in an unclear state of mind, but at the same time, it will not affect their positive state! ]

“Clarity!”

Su Chen’s eyes lit up and he suddenly laughed out loud!

Ghostblades had a special skill, and that was when their emotions entered a berserk state, their abilities could be greatly improved.

The disadvantage was that it was easy to lose control, and he might not even know if all his subordinates were killed.

However, with the technique Clarity, Su Chen would not have to worry about losing control!

He could maintain his berserk state while being conscious, and his ability would be greatly enhanced!

“This way, my abilities will be significantly improved. I shouldn’t have to worry about going to Storm Valley.”

Su Chen happily returned to the Dark Lair. After exchanging any useful equipment for his subordinates, he put all the excess into the Dark Store and exchanged for more than 100 cultivation rooms.

After everything was settled, two days had passed.

On the third morning since the last invasion, Lin Ke contacted Su Chen through the crystal ball and told him a very important piece of news.

“The Demon Dragon has flown away from Storm Valley! And it’s flying in the direction of the Crouching Dragon Cave!”

This meant that Firestorm had taken action, and it was very likely that they had found the remaining Dragon Crystals or triggered some trap.

Su Chen quickly brought Yun Lan to Storm Valley, preparing to find Spiritual Energy Crystals and Dragon Crystals there.

Lin Ke drew a more detailed map of Storm Valley and thanks to it, Su Chen avoided a lot of conflicts.

There was a castle in Storm Valley, standing at the edge of a cliff. The cliff was facing west, a bottomless cliff.

To the east was the main road to the main gate, but the firepower was extremely heavy, so it was not an ideal path.

The north side was also a cliff, but there was a long ladder attached to the edge of the cliff, connecting to a beach.

Su Chen did not have the time to go to the beach and climb up the hundreds of stairs.

Therefore, the only choice left was the South Gate.

There was a dragon at the South Gate. It was the Demon Dragon that Lin Ke had seen fly away.

With this, there should not be any guards left at the South Gate.

For the sake of convenience, Su Chen only brought Yun Lan with him.

When the two of them arrived at the South Gate, there were only a few thin and lonely skeleton soldiers standing there in a daze.

A few flashes of sword qi dealt with them easily.

The two of them successfully entered the South Gate and followed the map to find the location of the Dragon Crystals in the castle.

There was a warehouse in the castle that stored all the precious items.

This information was exchanged with the lives of three hundred of Lin Ke’s men.

There weren’t many guards along the way, and it seemed to be extremely out of place for the famous Storm Valley.

The skeleton soldiers that appeared along the way could not even make a sound.

A few flashes of sword qi would not attract any attention at all.

After a while, Su Chen and Yun Lan found the warehouse.

The warehouse was huge, and there were only a few skeleton monsters guarding outside.

After taking care of them one by one, Su Chen finally entered the warehouse.

“Strange, there are no guards in the warehouse…”

Yun Lan mumbled to herself curiously, “If it were me, I would definitely stuff all the soldiers in the city here into such an important warehouse!

After walking for a while, they found a special room. Su Chen was sure that there must be something good hidden in this room.

After walking around, only this room was locked.

A sword qi cut the lock and pushed the door open. The stale air entered his nose, making him feel a little uncomfortable.

There was no light in the room, but Su Chen could see everything inside.

This was because the items in the boxes in a corner of the room were shining brightly.

“So the Dragon Crystals can shine?” Su Chen muttered in surprise and placed the dragon egg on the box.

In an instant, the dragon egg fell into the bucket of ice like a baked red orb.

Instantaneously, a notification of the dragon egg’s hatching progress appeared in Su Chen’s mind.

Suddenly, a large amount of light came from above. It was different from the fluorescent light of the Dragon Crystals. It was a large amount of light from the sun!

He looked up in surprise and could not help but be shocked. A dragon had actually appeared above his head!

Roar!

The dragon roared in anger, and the sound waves seemed to want to destroy everyone in the house.

“Don’t move. Continue to guard the dragon egg!” Su Chen ordered. He suddenly jumped and a sword qi slashed at the giant dragon.

The giant dragon seemed to have been injured a long time ago, but its current combat power could not be ignored. Its huge body did not lose its agility, and its sharp claws swung at Su Chen repeatedly.

Scratch marks had already appeared on the extremely solid Dragonscale Armor.

The giant dragon seemed to have gone crazy and was extremely violent. It attacked Su Chen fiercely, leaving Su Chen with no way to fight back!

What was even mind-blowing was that the dragon was already injured!

“Fortunately, I still have a trump card!”

Su Chen used Clarity on himself and then activated his berserk state.

In an instant, his aura skyrocketed, and his strength received a huge boost.

This time, Su Chen finally had the strength to fight back. Not only that, he could even suppress the giant dragon!

At the same time, the hatching progress of the dragon egg was also increasing.

[ Dragon egg hatching progress: 95% ]

[ Dragon egg hatching progress: 96% ]

[ Dragon egg hatching progress: 97% ]

Seeing that the hatching progress had reached 99%, Su Chen’s face was filled with joy. He turned his head and prepared to let Yun Lan escape.

The Dragon suddenly went berserk. It ignored Su Chen’s attack and flew towards the dragon egg!

In an instant, Su Chen panicked. With such a huge body, weighing a few tons, it was enough to smash the dragon egg!

“No! Wait a minute! We can talk! You don’t have to destroy the dragon egg!”

Su Chen shouted anxiously, and he used Clarity on the dragon.

He did not know if the technique would work, but he was making the best out of this dire situation.

“Come back to your senses!”

The soft light of Clarity seemed to have worked on the dragon.

The dragon which was moving crazily had stopped, as if it had regained its consciousness.

“Hey, giant dragon, where’s your Dragon Knight? I need to talk to your Dragon Knight!”

Su Chen’s voice rang out again. This time, the dragon seemed to have understood him. It landed in front of Su Chen. Then, with a flash of white light, it turned into a human!

“I’m that Dragon Knight. What do you need to talk to me about?”

The dragon was covered in wounds, but he spoke eloquently.

“But I have to warn you seriously. You shouldn’t have incubated the Demon Dragon egg!

Su Chen had long fallen into a state of surprise. From the beginning when the giant dragon became a Dragon Knight, to now when the Dragon Knight warned him not to hatch the Demon Dragon.

“Why? If you don’t want me to hatch it, you should at least give me a reason, right?” Su Chen asked in confusion. The Dragon Knight took a deep breath and kept looking at his hands and feet. His eyes were full of nostalgia.

After a long while, he said, “Because the hatching of the demon Dragon means…”

Just then, a strong flash of light came from the room!

A prompt sounded in Su Chen’s mind:

[ Progress: 100%. The dragon egg is about to hatch! ]
