Chapter 232 - Flood Dragon Squad
After Manager Ying took the Queen Ant’s Egg, Lu Ran gained new resources. It wasn’t that the forging materials had arrived quickly, but rather that Gu Qingyi had come to Green Sea, bringing the Nature Manipulation Trait Crystal needed for the Weather Sprite.
Hiss, hiss...
In Lu Ran’s courtyard, over a dozen thick, multicolored snakes huddled together, staring at him excitedly.
Hiss, hiss... (Big Brother, hungry! Food!)
Lu Ran silently stared back. Who in the world taught them this nonsense? He glanced at Dr. Gu, who stood nearby in a beige trench coat, her long legs wrapped in black stockings.
It’s you, isn’t it? It has to be you!
“What do you think? These are the ones with the most concentrated Dragon Bloodline I could find,” Gu Qingyi said, gently placing a pale hand on the head of a green snake.
“They seem quite spirited... I’ll contact the people from Lu Village to come to Green Sea soon,” Lu Ran replied.
He and Gu Qingyi had previously discussed forming a Flood Dragon Squad—an elite, Dragon-attribute beastmaster team exclusive to Xia, modeled after the Eagle Federation’s own powerhouse units. Gu Qingyi had immediately agreed, offering to supply both the young dragon-species familiars and Dragon Trait Crystals.
As Xia’s Dragon Master, she had been researching dragons long before Lu Ran had become a Dragon Chef, and her institute housed some of the best dragon-species familiars. Lu Ran saw no reason to refuse.
With Dr. Gu’s help, he could save himself a great deal of effort, and if the Flood Dragon Squad proved successful, sharing some of its benefits with her was a fair trade.
