Dark King

After walking for four or five miles, aisha suddenly said, “Change the route. There are monsters ahead.”

“Okay.”Dean immediately changed the route. Although Aisha’s wounds had only healed and her strength had not recovered, but the sensory ability of her body organs was not comparable to his.

After taking a long detour, the two continued to move forward.

Along the way, Aisha reminded him that Dean did not encounter any dangerous high-level monsters. As for the common undeads and small monsters, he could easily kill them. There was no need to avoid them.

Half an hour later, the two arrived in front of the Shadow Hunter Cave.

“Has anyone been here?”Dudian saw the footprints in front of the cave. His face slightly changed. He carefully looked at the footprints and found that the number of footprints was messy. From the depth of the footprints, there were seven people in total!

This was the number of people in a dragon team!

“It’s the footprints of the Dragon Guard.”Aisha looked into the cave, “I guess they came with me to find Parna’s exploration team. They found this place and asked the Dragon Guard to transplant the eggs inside. Let’s go in and take a look.”

“Dragon Guard?”Dean was surprised, “How do you know?”

“I know the patterns on the soles of the boots.”Haisha said as she walked into the cave.

Dudian didn’t expect that the patterns on the soles of the boots would become her means of identification. He felt that he had learned another trick.

After entering the cave, Dudian noticed that the footprints went deep into the cave. He couldn’t help but feel a bit regretful. He thought that he would be able to steal a few eggs for collection. But now it seemed that all of them had been handed over.

“This time we have so many eggs of legendary monsters. Should the Dragon Clan be able to cultivate many strong people?”Dudian said: “It shouldn’t be the first time such a thing has happened in the wasteland for so many years. Does that mean that the pioneers of the Dragon Clan are all legendary magic marks?”

Aisha shook her head slightly, “The reason why legendary magic marks are called legendary magic marks is that the number of people with legendary magic marks is extremely rare. It doesn’t mean that they can obtain legendary parasitic soul worms.”

“What do you mean?”Dudian didn’t understand.

“The absorption of legendary parasitic soul worms is different from other parasitic soul worms. The host is easy to be devoured by the soul worms. The host’s consciousness will be taken away and the host will become a worm-man!”Aisha turned to look at him, “You live outside the giant wall and your information is limited. The highest level outside the giant wall is hunter. So you don’t know that there are conditions for magic mark replacement. Not everyone can carry out magic mark replacement.”

Dean was startled. He suddenly remembered that when he had absorbed the splitter’s parasitic soul worm, the parasitic soul worm had drilled into his body and desperately drilled into his head. Fortunately, he had tightly grasped his neck, the parasitic soul worm of the splitter couldn’t find a place to live so it had lodged in the original magic mark nest on his chest.

It seemed that if it had drilled into his brain at that time, he would have most likely become what aisha called “Insect Man”.

Although he didn’t know what insect man looked like, but the name alone made him feel nauseous.

“There are conditions for magic mark replacement?”Dean looked at her with a hint of inquiring attitude. He knew that the information in this world was blocked by layers. It was difficult for his previous identity to get complete information, he might even get false information.

“That’s right.”Aisha said: “You also know that the higher the physique, the more parts of the body become beast. This is caused by magic marks. “When there are too many beast parts, if the magic marks are replaced, the body that has been transformed will find it difficult to accept the new magic marks. It may even conflict with each other and cause unpredictable consequences. The most serious possibility is death!”

“And if you are lucky, your consciousness will collapse and your body will expand, turning into a strange and ugly inhuman bloodthirsty monster.”

“Therefore, if your physique is too high, your magic marks will be fixed and can not be replaced.”Aisha turned to look at Dudian, “You are very lucky to have obtained a legendary magic mark at the hunter stage. Generally speaking, even if you have evolved to the senior hunter stage, the risk of replacing your magic marks is only about 20% . Unless you are especially unlucky, most people will be fine.”

Dean was stunned.

“So, even if there are a lot of eggs from these hunters, they can only be used by the new members of the family who have potential. The magic marks of the people who have long become the frontiersmen and pioneers have already been fixed and can not be used.”

Aisha said, “And the problem is here. The replacement of a legendary magic mark by a hunter-level new member. Although the resistance of the magic marks is less and there is no danger, but the legendary parasitic soul worm itself is very dangerous! “This is not something that ordinary hunters can subdue. Even the elite hunters who are specially trained by the Dragon Clan will be infected by the legendary parasitic soul worm and turn into human insects.”

“So even if we get dozens of legendary eggs this time, it would be good if only one-tenth of them can be branded with a legendary magic mark. Moreover, there are very few people who can survive to the pioneer level.”

Dudian was surprised. He didn’t expect that absorbing legendary magic marks would be so dangerous. Even the elite hunters trained by the Dragon family had such a high failure rate. If it was an ordinary person.., wouldn’t the legendary parasitic soul worm become poison?

“What would happen if it became… an insect?”Dudian asked.

Aisha narrowed her eyes: “It will be disposed of.”

Dudian thought.

Aisha slowed down and walked side by side with Dudian. She looked at him: “I see that you have a lot of scars on your body. Have you experienced a lot of hardships before?”

Dudian’s eyes flashed as he thought of the prison, “It’s alright. It’s all in the past. But according to you, I have to thank these trials and temper my willpower. Otherwise, I would have died when I got the splitter’s parasitic soul worm.”

“When we experience pain, we hate pain. After the pain, we thank the pain.”Aisha slowly said.

Dudian looked at her and nodded slightly, “Yes.”

“Here we are.”Aisha briskly took a few steps forward. She came to the front of the cave and looked inside, “Sure enough, there are no traces of the egg pit.”

Dudian squatted by the hole and looked. As Aisha said, the originally stuffy nest was empty. The eggs that were once densely packed in the nest were all gone.

“I guess they have been moved to the stronghold.”Aisha looked at Dean, “It’s a pity that you are already a limiter. Otherwise, with your willpower, replacing the magic marks with the magic marks of the shadow hunter would be a success. You would be able to further deify the magic marks and become a legendary magic mark. Your potential in the future will be second only to mine.”

“In that case, I will recommend you to the family. You will definitely get a lot of resources.”There was a trace of sigh in her eyes.

Dudian’s heart was moved as he heard the words: “You are a legendary deified magic mark?”He almost said the word “Also”.

Aisha nodded, “My magic mark was prepared when I was born. It is the third of the eight legendary monsters. It is the magic mark passed down from generation to generation.”

Dudian was stunned. Passed down from generation to generation? Didn’t that mean that the Dragon Clan had a large number of parasitic soul worms?

Could it be that… the Dragon clan was raising a magic dragon?

However, what surprised him more was that the legendary monster had a ranking.

Aisha seemed to know what Dudian was thinking, she smiled: “There are strong and weak creatures in this world. Even if they are the same type of monster. Legendary monsters are no exception. Shadow Hunter is ranked seventh among the eight legendary monsters. Although his stealth ability is first-class, but if his disguise is seen through, his positive ability is only slightly stronger than rare monsters.”

“What about splitter?”Dudian asked.

Aisha smiled: “Splitter is an ultimate attack type monster. It is ranked fourth. It is a very rare legendary monster.”

Dudian was a bit disappointed but he was comforted as he thought that splitter wasn’t the last one. He suddenly thought of something: “Are the wings and the Rock tribe the same as you? They have legendary magic marks passed down from generation to generation. are their legendary magic marks ranked first and second?”

“Of course not.”Aisha smiled, “It’s true that there are legendary magic marks passed down from generation to generation. Otherwise, once the generations are gone, it would be the same as destruction. “However, their legendary magic marks are far from being comparable to our dragon race. The legendary magic marks passed down from generation to generation of the wings race are ranked fifth among the bat musicians. Therefore, they are also known as the ‘gospel’in the ears of the wall master. They always like to snitch in front of the wall master. They are not promising.”

“The legendary magic marks of the Rock clan are ranked sixth and above the shadow hunter. So your splitter’s magic marks are better than the magic marks of the wing clan and the Rock clan. However, they are deified magic marks. Under the stimulation of deified magic marks, they can make up for the gap of one or two ranks. Especially the magic marks ranked in the top three. The gap is not big.”

Dudian was startled. He didn’t expect that the magic marks of the splitter would be better than the two big families of the three big families. It meant that his growth potential could surpass them!

If he used the new magic then even if they had bloodline power it would be enough to wipe out or even surpass them!

“However, this ranking is not absolute,”Aisha said. “Every legendary monster has its best domain, terrain, and environment, and they will not easily leave the environment they are good at. Once other legendary monsters enter the environment they are good at, they will inevitably fall into a disadvantage, or even be killed. At some times, even the seventh-ranked shadow hunter can kill the splitter and the bat-sounder!”

“However, the actual ranking changes due to other factors have little effect on the top three legendary monsters.”

Aisha whispered: “Although they are known as the eight legendary monsters, but the gap between the top three legendary monsters is bigger than the other. Especially the number one legendary monster, ‘Dreamer’, has almost surpassed the range of legendary monsters. No matter what environment it is in, it can easily kill other legendary monsters. Even a legendary hunter could be killed by it!”

“So Strong?”Dean was surprised.

Aisha nodded slightly, “I heard it from Grandma Dragon. I haven’t seen it with my own eyes. There hasn’t been any trace of ‘Dreamer’for more than a hundred years. The last time it appeared was a hundred years ago. At that time, only footprints were left behind. The saintesses of that generation couldn’t find it, so it didn’t matter. “But we can be sure that no one has the magic marks of ‘Dreamer’. So we should just treat it as a legend and listen to it.”

Dean’s eyes flashed. There was a desire in his heart for power. However, just as Aisha said, it was enough to listen to the story. Let alone ‘Dreamer’, even other legendary monsters were hard to come by.

“Let’s find a place to rest.”Haisha said.

Dudian nodded.

Both of them went out of the cave. Dudian found the place where Ruby had hidden the bag. However, he didn’t see the bag. Instead, he left several footprints in front of the cave. Apparently, the bag of food.., had been taken away by the Dragon Guards.

He bitterly smiled and took Haisha to the desolate neighborhood. He found a relatively shabby building and drilled into it. He used branches and vines to cover the ground as a bed. Aisha’s strength had not recovered yet, so she could only continue to live in the Orange Wasteland.

In the following days, Dean and Aisha went out to hunt together every day. With Aisha’s super strong perception, the two of them did not encounter any high-level monsters. However, this was also related to the scope and time of each hunt, there was no large-scale hunting. Each time they went out, the time was short. After killing the small monsters, they quickly returned to their hiding place.

After eating and drinking in the house, Dudian trained his heart muscle.

Haisha had nothing to do. She taught him a complete set of Dragon’s Thorn chapter, which was the secret skill that Dudian had learned.

In Haisha’s words, it was against the rules to teach Dragon’s blood anyway. She didn’t care about another time.

Time flew. In the blink of an eye, Dudian and Haisha had lived in the orange wasteland for more than half a month. This didn’t include the unknown time when they lived in the ice cave.

“Have you packed everything?”Aisha was alone. She carried the blood-red greatsword on her back. She stood outside the gate of the ruins and turned her head to look at Dean who was tidying up.

Dean put on the washed armor and the bone-eating rat clothes. He put the other sets of clothes that Aisha had sewn from the fur of the monsters that she had captured into his backpack. He turned around and looked at the place where they had lived for half a month, the place was decorated like a cave. He looked back and jumped in front of Aisha: “I’m ready. We can go back.”
