Chapter 411: Chapter 410 Xueda Pilot
The next day, early in the morning.
Russell woke up from bed and, for no particular reason, burst into loud laughter, connecting ntally with Polly, “Last night, we did sothing big, hahahahaha!”
“It indeed was interesting,” Polly, who needed less sleep than Russell and had woken up earlier, replied, “To think we actually took a bite out of Snow Giant Da, just the thought of it is amusing. It not only helps Ice Cream grow but also serves as revenge.”
“This is far from revenge, we’ll only count it as real vengeance when we manage to eat the entire Snow Giant Da!”
Just thinking about how Snow Giant Da had crushed him to bits.
Russell quivered all over, despite being soone who had died once, he felt nothing when a garbage truck had run over him.
It was only when he was crushed by Snow Giant Da that he truly felt the fear of death.
“Right,” Polly responded, “But it won’t be easy to take another bite out of Snow Giant Da next ti.”
“No matter, it’s only a matter of ti. If Snow Giant Da wants to hunt the Shadowfla Dragon, it better be prepared for us to sneak a bite!” Russell said contentedly, “I’m now sowhat impatient, wishing for Snow Giant Da to hurry up and invade our territory.”
After a pause, he sighed, “It’s just a pity that the Torrential Flood Dragon is arriving, constructing the Torrent Scale Tower on the outskirts of the Shadowfla Duchy. It’s unlikely that Snow Giant Da will dare to make a move so easily.”
“But Russell, have you noticed sothing?”
“Noticed what?”
“There’s sothing off about Snow Giant Da and the Snow Giant Mage,” Polly shared her suspicion, “When we sneakily consud him, Snow Giant Da had no reaction, unlike the normal reaction one would expect from a Snow Giant. Even a Snow Demon knows to resist.”
When the Little Dream Dragon sucked from them in the Gloomy Dreamland, although Snow Demons couldn’t detect the Little Dream Dragon, they would at least show symbolic resistance by thrashing about.
Snow Giant Da, on the other hand, was as still as death, allowing the Little Dream Dragon to absorb him without resistance.
“Now that you ntion it, I’ve noticed too,” Russell frowned, “Snow Giant Da didn’t resist at all, but the Snow Giant Mage, on the other hand, used so kind of thod to prevent Ice Cream from continuing to absorb the star crystals.”
Russell began contemplating the disparity in the size and the difference in the intensity of the soft blue glow between the Snow Giant Mage and Snow Giant Da.
An idea struck him, “Could it be that Snow Giant Da has beco a puppet controlled by the Snow Giant Mage?”
Once his thoughts started to wander, they couldn’t be reined in, “Or maybe, Snow Giant Da isn’t a living being at all, kind of like those Snow Ghosts and Snow Demons, low in intelligence while alive, and only leaving behind a pearl after death…”
Snow Ghosts leave behind Ice Pellet Pearls, and Snow Demons leave behind Ice Soul Pearls. It seed that Snow Giant Da could also leave behind those little star-like crystals.
“So it’s very likely that Snow Giant Da is just a more powerful version of a Snow Ghost or Snow Demon, and the real living creature is that Snow Giant Mage… The Snow Giant Mage stands on the shoulder of Snow Giant Da, doesn’t it resemble piloting a Gundam?”
“Gundam?” Polly asked, confused.
“You can think of it as a kind of special puppet, and the Snow Giant Mage is the puppeteer,” Russell explained, “Including the Snow Ghosts and Snow Demons, they are all puppets created by the Snow Giant Mage using the power of the Snow Demon, then allowed to act autonomously.”
Suddenly frowning again, Russell said, “That doesn’t make sense, though. Humans have been battling with Snow Giants for thousands of years, and Snow Giants have always been a bit slow-witted, not like they had any pilots controlling them… And that small creature on the shoulder of Snow Giant Da has never been discovered.”
While humans have hunted many Snow Giants, there were no records of anything like a Snow Giant Mage acting as a pilot.
“Russell, the thods used by Snow Giant Da are also different from the Snow Giants recorded in history. Could it be that previously, there were no Mages controlling the Snow Giants?” Polly speculated, “Perhaps it’s only Snow Giant Da that suddenly has a Mage?”
“What you’re saying could be possible,” Russell mused, “But with over five thousand years since the birth of dragons, Snow Giants coming and going, it’s not likely none had pilots, right? Could it be that these Snow Giants have been unmanned for five thousand years?”
Upon considering this.
Russell gained newfound respect for the world of Snow Demons; unmanned operation was advanced technology, especially across two separate worlds.
In this way,
Russell and Polly discussed for an entire morning, but sadly with too little knowledge and too few clues, they weren’t able to deduce much useful information.
However, they could confirm one thing.
Snow Giant Da was an otherworldly version of a “Gundam,” and that small-sized Snow Giant was Snow Giant Da’s pilot.
“I need to find a ti to talk with the Shadowfla Dragon about this news.” Russell decided, “The Shadowfla Dragon sensed a new power gathering, and it’s very likely to be the one enated by the Xueda Pilot!”
The minor Snow Giant has already been nad by Russell as the Xueda Pilot.
He even associated it with the Bipedal Flying Dragon and the Flying Dragon Knight, concluding that the Xueda Pilot is the key to unlocking all of Snow Giant Da’s combat abilities.
However, where the Xueda Pilot cos from is beyond Russell’s understanding.
“Crossing the portal from another world, there is an ancient legend in Dragon Sleep Continent that the Snow Demon cos from another world through the portal, but where is this portal? For years, countless Dragon Knights have scoured the Snowfield but have seed to find no trace of this portal’s location.”
Suddenly.
Russell rembered one night, while decompressing on the garden terrace, he saw a teor fall from the sky.
“It can’t be that the Snow Demons ca riding on teors, right? No, or could it be that the Xueda Pilot ca riding on a teor?” Russell had a sudden thought. It was soon after the teor fell that the Shadowfla Dragon felt a new power gathering.
But he quickly dismissed the thought: “No, that’s not right. Before the teor fell, Snow Giant Da had already learned to be crafty… Even earlier, in the first Battle of the Fallen, Snow Giant Da had resorted to sneak attacks to win.”
It’s very possible that Snow Giant Da already had a Xueda Pilot at that ti.
“But that can’t be right either. If the Xueda Pilot had been around for so long, would they just sit by and watch the Shadowfla Duchy recover for twenty years? Even in the second Battle of the Fallen, other than hiding Snow Demons and killing Grand Duke Kunstan, there were no indications that Snow Giant Da used any particular tactics.”
He tried to connect with the M-shaped mark in the palm of his hand, but all the mark did was flicker, indicating that Little Dream Dragon was in deep sleep.
The star crystal ford by Snow Giant Da’s little finger was enough to keep it nourished for quite a while.
“Or could it be that the Xueda Pilot also needs to grow and learns how to fight slowly through battles with humans?”
That’s a rather alarming thought.
But Russell had even more doubts. “Speaking of which, did the Xueda Pilot arrive alone on Dragon Sleep Continent riding on a teor, or did they co in groups and then each find a Snow Giant to pilot?”
If that’s the case, then Dragon Sleep Continent is in danger!
“Don’t scare yourself, perhaps I’m overthinking it. If it really were pilots arriving in groups, they should have banded together and overthrown human nations by now.” Russell shook his head and stopped dwelling on Snow Giant Da and the Xueda Pilot.
He stood up to summon Black Oil Dragon Ross to take a trip to the Shadowfla Volcano and convey the ssage to the Shadowfla Dragon.
After consulting it, they could decide if they should inform King Ares·Sundazzle.
As he got up, he rembered that Ross had returned to the Blackfla Plains, the holand of the Bipedal Flying Dragon, having wandered outside for too long. Since Russell was planning on staying ho longer, he had let Ross return.
“Never mind, let Ross rest well at ho. Polly, let’s go to the Shadowfla Volcano together.” Russell communicated with Unicorn Polly.
In fact, Polly’s speed had already surpassed that of Ross, who had been enhanced with thunder technology, breaking the sound barrier.
Riding Polly was much more convenient than riding Ross.
However, the Bipedal Flying Dragon is the ultimate pass on Dragon Sleep Continent; wherever Russell went, Black Oil Dragon Ross was a symbol of his identity.
“Alright then.” Polly flew over gently.
Russell leapt onto Polly’s back, ready to set off when he heard a slightly wistful cry next to his ear.
“Gu’er.”
It was Harpy Dragon Hape, standing on the garden terrace trellis looking at the backs of Russell and Polly.
Without saying anything in his mind.
But Hape’s wistful expression spoke more than a thousand words—it was also Russell’s contract partner, not just an ornant to be displayed at ho.
Russell imdiately turned around, smiling and beckoning: “Co on Hape, let’s go together!”
