Seventeen books in total, sixteen of which are erotic novels of the sa type as "A Night with Miss Havana in the Piano Room," each cover opened to reveal, still, no Dou Qi Secret Techniques.
"Who would have thought the Marquis of Bull would be such a person."
Liszt’s face fell as he pinned all his hopes on the last book, which had no title. Its cover was yellow, adorned only with a circular disc pattern.
The disc was outlined in black lines, divided into three concentric circles: inner, middle, and outer.
The inner circle had a rice character-like division: at the tip of each line extended a symbol, all of which were connected to form the inner circle. Based on his experience, Liszt guessed that these eight symbols represented the eight magic attributes: wind, fire, water, earth, lightning, light, ice, and darkness.
This was a book about magic power—possibly a book of magic.
The middle circle was simple, with wedge-shaped symbols arranged in succession to form the circle. The wedge-shaped symbols were both repeated and unique, not resembling any known script, so Liszt couldn’t understand their aning.
The outer circle was interesting and quite complex.
It was composed of dragons, twistedly interlinked, forming a large circle.
The entire disc was hand-drawn with ink, ticulously and precisely, especially the circles which were exceptionally round. It was evident that the person who drew this disc, or rather wrote this book, was definitely a magician. Only a magician would have the patience and energy to study all kinds of strange symbols.
He flipped open the pages.
The title page was an article, not in the familiar Serpent Script, but in Wind Language.
Serpent Script consists of lines that entangle like small snakes, while Wind Language is characterized by continuously curling closed lines. Fresh Flower Town had long conducted Wind Language education, and by now, Liszt was able to read the basics of Wind Language.
The title of the article on the title page read—To the respected Prince Alonso Xiankelai.
"Alonso Xiankelai?" Liszt raised an eyebrow. He hadn’t heard this na before, nor did he know from which noble family the surna Xiankelai ca.
But the title "Your Highness" was reserved exclusively for mbers of the royal family and children of dukes.
"Not a surna from Eagle Kingdom’s royal family, could it be a prince from one of the Eagle Kingdom’s vassal states?"
He didn’t dwell on the surna and continued to read.
"When I look up at the night sky, what cos to mind are the words once spoken by the great Karvasi Truth Mage—’Don’t look down at ants; look up at dragons. Conquering ants is sothing even a child can do; conquering dragons ans you have transcended the mundane.’"
"Magicians are unable to bond with dragons and harness their magical power, but conquering dragons has always been our aspiration. In the distant era of the Moon Empire, the great Ancient Magicians slaughtered eight Elental Dragons and used their blood to inscribe the ’Dragon Disc’ Magic Array, attempting to probe the truth of the world."
"That tumultuous experint resonates in the heart of every magician; whenever I think of such an incredible and magnificent act, I feel it is only right for humanity to rule the world."
"Admittedly, now is the era where knights have taken over the reins of power from magicians and now rule the world, Your Highness, you are a genius knight. But apart from Dragon Knights, it is still us magicians who have the most knowledge about dragons. I once worked in the Mage Tower of the great Lafeite Truth Mage, and saw vast volus of books all about dragons."
"I have read nurous books on dragons and also conducted close-range studies of the Earth Dragons, the Evil Dragons of the Rupture Mountains. These incredible creatures are truly the essence of magical power—aside from elves, there is no other creature that can match their radiance."
"Therefore,"
"Please allow to explain to you the Silver Moon Assembly’s progress in dragon research, hoping it will benefit you in becoming a Dragon Knight—Saithwen Truth."
That was all there was on the title page.

More precisely, this was a letter written in the form of a book.
In the subsequent pages, the magician nad Sethwen Truth recorded a substantial amount of research work from the Silver Moon Gathering, all revolving around dragons. It was quite evident that this magician was skilled at organizing the text, dividing everything into four major chapters for discussion.
The first chapter was about the study of dragon habitats, noting down so rumors about the birth of dragons, as well as stories related to dragon knights riding dragons and dragon slayers slaying dragons. The content was fairly mixed, with many unconfird rumors. Besides the dragons raised by the kingdom, how dragon knights discover wild dragons remains a mystery.
The second chapter focused on the diet of dragons, docunting what each dragon species favored and how food is transford into minerals and excreted. It also described the impact of different foods on the minerals dragons excrete, as well as their excretion habits and frequency.
The third chapter dealt with dragon reproduction, exploring how dragon might, dragon breath, dragon scales, dragon dung, and dragon saliva can be transford into tals, gemstones, and the like.
The data recorded in the aforentioned three chapters weren’t extensive, consisting more of speculation and excerpts from research notes of magicians from various countries and eras.
The fourth chapter concerned dragon bloodline infection.
This chapter contained the bulk of information, with records of four advanced dragon beasts, seven interdiate dragon beasts, and twenty-six low-level dragon beasts, as well as over fifty types of dragon breed beasts.
There was a notable absence of research on super dragonkin magical beasts, that is, sub-dragons—the magicians of the Silver Moon Gathering were skeptical of the existence of sub-dragons.
Dragons are also known as flying dragons.
Super dragonkin magical beasts are also known as sub-dragons.
Advanced, interdiate, and low-level dragonkin magical beasts are also referred to as dragon beasts.
And then there are dragon breed beasts.
The hierarchy of dragon bloodlines, as proposed in the book, brought forth an intriguing notion. The magicians of the Silver Moon Gathering surmised that dragons infecting beasts and magical beasts was akin to a reproductive desire—dragons are genderless and, when excited, would release the magic power within their bloodline, infecting beasts and magical beasts to create dragon breeds.
"So, dragon beasts and dragon breed beasts co about in this manner? Genderless dragons, depending on their level of excitent, decide whether to infect beasts?"
Liszt thought of the dragon breed cows on the dairy farm: "So, that ans when the Formless Dragon was given delicious beef to eat, coupled with the irresistible scent of Smoked Grass, it got excited. Then it released the magic power in its bloodline, infecting the cows at the dairy farm!"
He found this explanation quite plausible.
Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why, despite dragons roaming everywhere, dragon breed beasts and dragon beasts were still quite rare—bloodline infection must have specific conditions, and heightened emotions could be one of them.
He closed the book.
Liszt carefully put it away.
Although it wasn’t the Dou Qi secret techniques, dragon slaying manuals, or any anticipated content about stealing dragon magic power experints that he had imagined, it still had instructional value, deepening his understanding of dragons.

In the pouring rain, the earl arrived at Bull Horn City without any issues.

After resting for a night, on the morning of July 16th, the heavy rain had beco a drizzle, and the ships from Coral Island began their return journey.
Without holding an umbrella, Liszt stood at the bow of the ship, watching the coastline of Bull Horn City gradually disappearing into the misty haze, feeling stirred: "I can finally go ho, Fresh Flower Town, my elves, and Ach..."
