The little frost dragon didn't understand how this human knew the na of it's sacred artifact.
"Frost Heart is the sacred artifact of our frost dragon clan. Each dragon lineage has its own sacred artifact. Five hundred years ago, during a great war between our clan's deity and the angels, the Frost Heart was shattered. Our deity fell, and the angelic deity was severely wounded and died shortly after.
To preserve the fragnts of the sacred artifact, my frost dragon clan fled with the pieces, scattering them across various continents. Subsequently, a great war broke out between the angelic clan and our dragon clan. However, our forces on the continent of Eldoria were not strong, and with our species being few in number, we were no match for the combined forces of humans and angels.
Eventually, we were defeated and forced into hiding.
The only function of the sacred artifact, Frost Heart, is to create gods!"
Is this a piece of Divine gear?! Alex was astonished. She was only at a commanding level now; wasn't it too early for her to be dealing with such things?
In summary, the frost dragons, bolstered by their sacred artifact, were more likely to ascend to godhood than the Angel clan, or perhaps there were special conditions needed for ascension that the angels desperately needed. Alex didn't know; these were all her speculations.
Thus, the angelic clan, in their determination to eradicate any threats, seized the fragnts of the frost dragon's sacred artifact, giving no chance for a reversal of fortunes.
But that was Divine gear, surely it would be of great use to the angels as well.
As for why the two clans went to war, the little frost dragon was unclear; after all, it had been just an egg at that ti, not yet hatched.
"This is a piece of Divine gear, the very thing you've been fiercely guarding. Are you really okay with entrusting it to ?" Alex was puzzled.
"There are seven fragnts. The angelic clan has already obtained four. We fight desperately just to keep them from getting it. After Frost Heart was shattered, it lost all its powers and beca useless to us."
The little frost dragon was responsive to Alex's questions, patiently explaining everything.
Alex understood now; the thing was a complete white elephant unless all the fragnts were gathered. With four fragnts still in angelic hands, and their strength so formidable, it was impossible to retrieve the remaining pieces.
No wonder the little frost dragon had handed over the fragnt so readily.
Wait a minute, seven fragnts... why does this feel like a Dragon Ball scenario?
As a condition of the little frost dragon's submission, Alex was to help guard this fragnt, preventing it from falling into the hands of the angels and the local humans.
Alex boldly speculated that if the angels managed to assemble this Divine gear, they might indeed bring forth a new deity. That would spell doom for the frost dragon clan, perhaps that's why they were so desperate not to let the fragnts go.
Since the angels hadn't discovered her location, it wasn't impossible to subdue this frost dragon, which would be a significant boost for her.
According to the little frost dragon, the angels weren't sure if there were fragnts of Frost Heart here; they had just happened to find their lair, which triggered the war.
So Alex wasn't too worried about the angels sending a massive search party around, after all, such a powerful being couldn't possibly be idle all the ti, focusing only on the snowy mountains, right?
The more Alex thought about it, the more the benefits seed to outweigh the risks.
At least she'd have a mount now, right? No more worrying about getting her stockings snagged by bones.
"I agree!"
As soon as Alex spoke, the little frost dragon bowed its head, and a magical contract appeared, as if it had been prepared in advance.
Alex confird it was indeed a master-servant contract, then wrote down her na. The little frost dragon touched the contract with the horn on its head.
The contract was instantly completed.
Alex felt a slight soul connection with the frost dragon in front of her; she could kill it with just a thought.
The life and death of the frost dragon were now entirely in Alex's hands, this master-servant contract was essentially similar to a Lord's submission contract.
With the frost dragon fully submitted to Alex, the surrounding undead began to disperse to do their own things, and the four gargoyles once again turned into statues and returned to the Magic Stone Pillars. The frost dragon also felt it could freely enter and exit the protective barrier now.
"What's your na?" Alex thought it best to ask, needing sothing to call it by.
"Pablo Alejandro Sandigar Valeriz de la Cruz y Fernandez III."
"What the heck? Why is your na so long! Forget it, from now on you're Ice Cream..."
Such a long na, who could rember that! The frost dragon didn't understandhuman culture, and to it, a na was just a label, so it didn't matter what it was called.
Of course, Alex wouldn't tell anyone its real na, because she hadn't rembered it herself.
Alex looked at the Frost Heart fragnt on the ground, covered in Ice Cream's drool—disgusting. She didn't reach for it; since it was entrusted to her, she used the territory's one-click retrieval feature to store the Frost Heart fragnt in her warehouse.
Then it was ti to check Ice Cream's attributes; Alex at least needed to know its capabilities and strength.
[Frost Dragon]
[Race: Dragon]
[Loyalty: 100% (Never Betray)]
[Life Tier: Commanding level]
[Level: lv5 (Can be increased by killing enemies and growth)]
[Health Points: 500]
[Mana Points: 200]
[Strength: 140]
[Stamina: 120]
[Agility: 100]
[Growth Limit: Emperor level]
[Active Skills: Breath of Dragon, Dragon Roar, Dragon's Presence]
[Passive Skills: Dragon Scales, powers of ice, wind, and lightning elents]
It was a level 5 commanding level, and Alex was not only surprised by its level but also by its capabilities, which were much stronger than a bone dragon that could only breathe fire.
Dragon's Presence and Breath of Dragon didn't need much explanation; Arthur had them too. Dragon Scales enhanced its defense, not only against physical and magical attacks but even sowhat against ntal damage.
And then there were the passive skills; Ice Cream's attacks could carry these three elental attributes, and it had a ho-field advantage in favorable terrains.
The most outrageous part was its thod of leveling up. After being endowed with attributes by the system, it could not only level up by killing enemies.
Its original thod of leveling was still in place; even if Ice Cream did nothing, by the ti it reached adulthood, its strength would still rise to Emperor level.
But dragon lifespans were so long, aning this growth would take a very long ti.
So living dragons were so much stronger than a dead bone dragon? Or was it just that this dragon was particularly talented?
Now, with the situation on the snowy mountain unclear, Alex didn't dare let Ice Cream leave her castle. Staying inside at least had the support of the Specter Chandelier, making it less likely to be discovered.
Even if they were unlucky enough to be discovered, there was still a protective barrier. In any case, without absolute safety assured, Alex wouldn't dare let Ice Cream leave her castle lightly.
"You just stay in the castle for now. I've sent undead to the snowy mountain, and they'll report back if there's any news."
