Dragon Who Controls Time-Chapter 20
Walking on the Ice
The Cloud Mist Technique could create a cloud of mist to disrupt vision and senses, blocking some spell detection abilities. It was a type of spell ability that a White Dragon could master when it was young. It was best used with Aura Concealment to move around stealthily. Garen had comprehended it when he was still a young dragon.
Of course, his current size was not inferior to ordinary young White Dragons, and it even slightly exceeded them.
Without removing the Cloud Mist Technique, Garen circled above the Bone Crusher Tribe for a moment and carefully sized up the situation.
Ten minutes later, he nodded imperceptibly and confirmed that the number of adult ogres here was indeed as Uga had said.
After thinking for a moment, Garen turned around and left. However, he did not return to the Ice River Domain directly. Instead, he used the Bone Crusher Tribe as the center and searched the surrounding 20 miles.
He did not fly fast but carefully looked down and scanned the various terrain of the ice plain. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖
Garen was looking for a suitable location to set up an ambush.
Although dragons were naturally powerful, they did not like to expose themselves head-on and directly fight. On the contrary, dragons liked sudden attacks like falling from the sky or breaking out of the ground.
Although it had scales and wings, many of the characteristics of a dragon were more like a cat than a worm.
Time passed bit by bit. About an hour and a half later, Garen’s body froze, and his eyes revealed joy. He retracted his dragon wings and dispersed the clouds around him before diving down.
Soon, Garen landed on an extremely smooth ice surface. He turned his neck and looked around.
Under his feet was the surface of the lake covered in ice crystals, covering a radius of several kilometers.
In the Northern Ice Fields, because of the low temperature, it was very easy to freeze in a water lake like the one under his feet. Only in the warmest short period of time every year would the ice crystals melt and reveal the lake water.
This place was the most suitable place for an ambush for the White Dragon.
Because there was no snowstorm recently, the snow on the ground was not thick enough to hide the dragon’s body. If he ambushed in the water that the ogres hated, attacking from under the ice was the best choice.
After landing on the ice, Garen carefully moved his body and was surprised to discover that the ice could actually support his weight.
At first, he thought that the ice was hard enough, but after walking and even running for a while, Garen discovered that he was wrong.
He could move freely on the ice without much effect, mainly relying on his dragon body.
The moment Garen’s dragon claw touched the ice, it produced a strange force to support his body. Moreover, the scaled claw increased the friction, allowing him to move freely on the smooth ice. He was even faster than when he moved on the ground normally, coming and going like the wind.
Walking on ice… was a special ability belonging to the White Dragon.
Special abilities referred to the ability to be completely unaffected by spells and not be affected by anti-magic or magic-free areas. Garen could walk on the ice mainly because of his unique physical structure, like the ability to see through distance and darkness, not spells or supernatural powers.
After sliding on the ice for a moment, Garen flapped his dragon wings and soared into the sky, returning to the Ice River Domain.
He had spent a total of a few hours on this trip. If the ogre, Uga Bone Crusher, wanted to take the opportunity to escape, he should have long left the Ice River Domain and fled.
However, when Garen looked down from the sky, he still saw a familiar tall figure.
Uga Bone Crusher was sparring with the Northern Ice Spirit, Roy Ice River. He cried out loudly and charged towards Roy Ice River like a tank. As he moved, the ground shook slightly, and his momentum was not weak.
Fear appeared on Roy Ice River’s humanoid ice crystal face.
He stretched out his hand, and the elemental power in the surrounding space instantly gathered. A series of ice cones shot out from its palm like machine guns. They were many times stronger than the ice dagger that it had shown Garen more than two months ago.
Unfortunately, when the dense ice cones landed on the skin of Uga Bone Crusher, they only made him grimace in pain, leaving white marks on the rough dark skin, but they did not really break.
The skin of the ogre was very tough and fleshy.
It was difficult for the ice cones shot out by Roy Ice River to leave any truly effective injuries.
A few seconds later, Uga Bone Crusher strode forward and rushed to the front of the Northern Ice Spirit. He grabbed Roy Ice River with one hand and laughed loudly. In the Giant language, he said, “Little guy, I won. If you want to defeat the future leader of the Uga Bone Crusher, you’re still far from it!”
Roy Ice River did not understand Giant language, but from his expression, he roughly guessed the meaning of Uga Bone Crusher’s words.
Although it had lost, it was happy about its increasingly powerful ability after becoming a dragon blood creature.
One had to know that before this, if he saw an ogre, it would be difficult for him to have any thoughts of fighting. He could only take a detour and leave. However, now, he could barely fight.
There was no unwillingness to admit defeat. Roy Ice River, who was made of ice crystals, only said in distress, “Put me down. I admit defeat.”
The ogre was very strong and could carry a few tons of things as if it was playing. When he was grabbed by it, Roy Ice River felt like he would be crushed into ice at any time. Although the Northern Ice Spirit would not die before its magic power was exhausted, it was a bad experience in the end.
Uga Bone Crusher raised his head proudly. Because he did not understand the common language, he did not know what Roy Ice River was saying and only continued to laugh.
Roy Ice River was about to make some gestures to let the ogre understand when his face suddenly lit up and he looked behind Uga Bone Crusher in reverence.
Uga Bone Crusher’s expression froze as he saw the shadow that stretched out from behind and covered his shadow. He slowly let go of Roy Ice River and mechanically turned his neck slowly.
“Lord True Dragon, you’re back.”
A smile appeared on Uga Bone Crusher’s ugly face.
He was shocked in his heart and discovered that although the True Dragon’s body was huge, it could fall without any sound.
Garen’s face was expressionless as he said, “You seem to be getting along well with my servant.”
Uga Bone Crusher scratched his head and said in embarrassment, “The other ogres in the tribe are too stupid. Your servants are as smart as me. I like to communicate with them.”
Although they did not speak the same language, just the communication of their gestures made Uga Bone Crusher feel that the Northern Ice Spirit was easier to communicate with than the ogres in the tribe.
It also had the thought of learning the common language and wanted to communicate with other intelligent creatures.
Garen ignored the ogre and looked at Roy Ice River. He encouraged, “Although you’re not the ogre’s match yet, your strength still has a lot of room to grow. You won’t be weaker than the ogre in the future. Continue to work hard.”
A simple encouragement made a rich expression of gratitude appear on Roy Ice River’s face.
Motivation from a True Dragon was not common.
Immediately, Garen grabbed the shoulder of Uga Bone Crusher with his claw. Under a puzzled gaze, his dragon wings shook and flew into the sky. The ogre’s weight was like a toy under the dragon’s claw as it was quickly brought into the air while trembling.fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m
