The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming - Chapter 510 - Chapter 510: Chapter 504: Beryl's Request

Chapter 510: Chapter 504: Beryl’s Request

“If you want to go to the Spring Mansion, I’d be more than happy to guide you!” Greenox was very enthusiastic.

“Okay, I need a guide since I’m traveling, so this works out well.”

David Jones glanced at Greenox, thought for a moment, and took out a Level IV Gallbladder Grass from the Star Ring, “This is your payment for guiding.”

David Jones didn’t have any currency from the Umbral region, nor did he know if there were any elixirs in this area. At this time, elixirs became the best choice for transactions, and the herbs could better prove his identity as a healer.

Sure enough, Greenox’s attitude became even more respectful. He whispered, “May I ask what the effects of this elixir are, sir?”

“The Gallbladder Grass has the unique effect of healing hidden injuries, reducing inflammation, and detoxifying. Just add it to a bowl of boiled water and drink it. It can effectively alleviate your injuries.” David Jones casually explained.

Upon hearing this, Greenox was overjoyed.

Being able to see his hidden injuries at a glance, this nobleman must be a high-ranking healer, who might also be proficient in the mysterious art of external alchemy.

If he could win over the nobleman, maybe his accumulated hidden injuries could be fully healed someday, bringing him back to his original state!

Hearing the conversation between them, the village chief Blackmap hesitated to speak.

Greenox was the strongest person in Penance Village, and without him leading the hunting team this year, their village would lose several families due to the shortage of supplies.

However, when compared to the option of angering the nobleman, Blackmap ultimately chose to remain silent.

In a dilapidated but clean and tidy wooden house, David Jones fed his pets while browsing books and materials brought to him by Greenox.

The Umbral region claimed to be the Holy Dragon Kingdom, protected by the Guardian Dragon God. Without the existence of the dragon, the entire kingdom would be invaded and destroyed by Beasts and Mysterious Beasts.

Therefore, within the Umbral region, the Guardian Dragon God’s existence was even more noble and supreme than the Empress of the region. Only the Ghosts strong enough to be recognized by the Dragon God could ascend the throne, giving off a hint of divine right.

“What Holy Dragon Kingdom? It’s clearly just a kingdom conquered by dragons!” David Jones shook his head and looked outside the wooden house.

At this moment, the villagers of Penance Village were kneeling devoutly before a statue of the Dragon God not far away, chanting prayers.

David Jones could clearly see that as the villagers knelt, specks of visible starlight emerged from their bodies, falling into the statue with an indistinct face, emitting a faint glow.

David Jones quietly observed the ongoing ritual but didn’t dare to use his Illusion-Piercing Eye to inspect it.

After all, this faint light could automatically disperse other Beasts, which meant it had a hint of consciousness. It was no different from courting death if he rashly tried to spy on the Guardian Dragon God without knowing its strength!

“Still no sign of Collins Clark?” David Jones looked down at the Lolo nestled in his arms.

“Jijie!” (Still none!)

Lolo blinked.

“Jijie?” (Could he be dead?)

David Jones slowly said, “Whether he’s dead or alive, we can’t let our guard down.”

Having said that, he closed his eyes and began his daily cultivation and Dragon-Wielding strengthening practices.

“Creak!”

The sound of the wooden door being pushed awoke David Jones from his cultivation.

He looked at the entrance, his highly perceptive eyes piercing through the darkness of the night as if it were nothing.

If someone tried to sneak attack in the dark, they might meet a terrible end.

Soon, David Jones saw a small head with sharp horns poking in from the entrance.

The newcomer had delicate features, fair skin, a youthful appearance and even a hint of youthful naivety.

Her long black hair draped over her shoulders, her figure was curvy and she wore only a thin fox fur on her body, her face tense with anxiety.

Seeing David Jones remaining still, the girl bit her teeth and slowly walked inside the room. The fox fur draped over her body fell onto the table as she moved, revealing her naked body, which was so white under the bright moonlight that it shocked David Jones, causing him to quickly close his eyes. “What are you doing?” David Jones exclaimed in surprise.

“The village’s conditions are simple, and I didn’t attend to you, sir, properly. Allow me to serve you tonight,” the girl stammered as if frightened.

“Listen to me, put your clothes on first.” David Jones frowned slightly, then asked coldly, “Who sent you here?”

The girl’s voice was laced with sobbing, “It was my father who sent me!”

“Father!!!”

David Jones felt a sinking feeling in his heart, as the customs of Ghosts seemed to be completely different from ordinary people.

Seeing the girl standing in place with a look of panic on her face, David Jones softened his voice and said, “I like my solitude. You can leave now.”

Unexpectedly, upon hearing what David Jones said, the girl panicked and quickly fell to her knees, slamming her head against the ground.

“Stop!”

With a thought, David Jones stopped her and used his Confusion ability to cloak her with the fox fur from the table.

“What’s your name?” Without any other options, David Jones went over and asked gently.

“Beryl.” The girl swallowed nervously.

“Go home and don’t do this again!” After hesitating for a moment, David Jones took a Frost Herb from his Star Ring and placed it in Beryl’s hands.

In his Mesona Space, Frost Herbs like this Level I are common as roadside weeds, easily plucked in large quantities, and not worth much money. But it could well convey his goodwill and gratitude.

Beryl’s father should not be harsh on her when he sees this small plant.

“Thank you, sir Healer.” Beryl clutched the Frost Herb tightly in her hand, her knuckles turning white with force.

Watching Beryl’s retreating figure, David Jones sighed.

Although the world was like this, he still didn’t want the Ghosts maid who had taken the initiative to come to his doorstep.

It wasn’t because of the difference between humans and ghosts, he just simply didn’t want to!

The next day at noon, the dazzling sunlight shone through the window.

Feeling the slight soreness in his muscles, David Jones couldn’t help but stretch his arms and legs.

Though hiding inside the Five-Colored Dragon Wheel protected him from being attacked by the deadly poison, the tremendous impact force coming from the Red Earth Elixir still caused considerable damage to his body, making him sleep until noon.

In the next few days, David Jones planned to stay in Penance Village to learn more about Umbral and heal his injuries, while also searching for traces of Collins Clark nearby to determine his condition.

After finishing the roast tiger meat brought over by Greenox, David Jones was attracted by the continuous painful cries nearby.

He pushed the door open to look at the source of the sound and saw Greenox in the open space in the distance, throwing medicinal materials into the cauldron, and tossing young children into boiling earthen stoves.

“Something like the medicinal bath body forging technique used in the Ancient Age for Body Cultivation!” With just a glance, David Jones understood Greenox’s intention.

Body forging was a difficult process, no wonder these children cried out in pain.

“Sir Healer!”

Seeing David Jones finally coming out, Beryl, who worked since morning sharpening her bone blade, respectfully saluted him.

“Sir, can I ask you to help treat someone? As compensation, she is willing to offer a family heirloom of a Spirit Level poison.”

David Jones paused for a moment, glanced at the expectancy on girl’s face, which was completely different from last night’s, and smiled.

“Okay, a Spirit Level poison (Level IV) can get me to help once!”
