The Mighty Dragons Are Dead-Chapter 821 - 0817: Whirlpool River (First Update)
Chapter 820: Chapter 0817: Whirlpool River (First Update)
After returning,
Ach very much wanted to communicate with the Formless Dragon immediately to learn about the spatial secrets it possessed, but language barriers and Li Si Te’s lack of time made translation impossible.
She could only supervise the construction of the Flame Origin Mage Tower for now and communicate with the Mage Tower in Whirlpool Town, doing some research on the information about the edges of the Great Whirlpool. At the same time, she focused on cultivating Ice Element Magic, striving to master it perfectly and initiate the next phase of Elementalization shift—the Earth Attribute!
With the Elemental Incarnation of the Earth Attribute, shaping terrain would be effortless—she was also constantly thinking about the concept of the Sky Canal.
The Mage Tower was under construction.
The construction of Flame Town was also rapidly unfolding with the arrival of craftsmen and serfs, with dense forests all around that could be cut down for timber to build houses at any time.
...
With the strong adhesive effect of rubber water, the construction progressed swiftly.
There was no lack of stone either.
Li Si Te’s young follower Emily was leading the Blizzard Beast Squad into the forest to hunt with the Knight Order, or commanding the Blizzard Beast Squad to produce rocks, contributing bricks and tiles to the town’s construction. It must be said that the evolved Blizzard Beasts produced a high quantity of stone blocks, enough for the needs of the town.
Regrettably, Bloodline Fruits were rare, and no new Blizzard Beasts could be bred, unable to change the problem of reproductive isolation.
Since the Rock Spikes produced by the Blizzard Beasts could not maintain shape after being broken down, Jomaya Bangtu, the chief director of Flame Town construction, suggested to Li Si Te to build a brick factory on Flame Origin to produce brick blocks, boards, and culverts—in the new construction on Black Horse Island, they followed a modernized construction plan with stone slabs on the surface and culverts buried underground.
Li Si Te accepted Jomaya’s suggestion, planning to establish a new Fire Dragon Brick Factory on Flame Origin, but when he asked Leo for Fire Dragon Overmagic, he was refused.
“Oh-ho!” Leo had a valid reason for refusal—it was originally Li Si Te who forcefully made it trigger the volcanic eruption, wasting half of the Fire Dragon Overmagic.
Since then, no volcano had been found, and the Fire Dragon Overmagic had not recovered, seriously delaying its growth and development.
Now that Li Si Te was riding both the Light Green Gem Dragon Ethan and the Formless Dragon Bard, Leo felt his status was threatened and was not willing to weaken his own power in the slightest.
“Don’t be stingy, Leo,” Li Si Te comforted his partner. “The Flame Islands are being developed. The island and this archipelago are vast, and there definitely will be new volcanoes for you to cultivate… Once I’m done with the construction in Whirlpool Town, I’ll explore the Flame Islands with you, how about that?”
After a lot of thought, for the sake of the future,
Leo ultimately nodded and agreed: “Oh-ho!”
It spat out a bit of Fire Dragon Overmagic for Li Si Te, which was probably enough to build seven or eight high-temperature kilns, enough to sustain a large-scale Fire Dragon Brick Factory.
Seeing Leo look dejected after spitting out the Fire Dragon Overmagic, Li Si Te still felt heartache.
Even though Leo was undoubtedly an Evil Dragon, constantly having malicious thoughts brewing inside, it was after all nurtured by Li Si Te himself, and his feelings for it were utterly different from the Light Green Gemstone Dragon and the Formless Dragon, “Besides, Leo is a combat-oriented dragon, still in its youth; it needs to develop.”
Only a well-developed Fire Dragon could contribute more Fire Dragon Overmagic, laying the foundation for the industrialization of the territory.
“We need to find an active volcano as soon as possible!”

Letting Leo return to his body to sleep and reduce further consumption, Li Si Te called over the Formless Dragon Bard. He planned to ride it more to familiarize himself with Bard and try to explore the cultivation methods of the Formless Dragon—aiming to complete the creation of the “Formless Dragon Knight-Dragon Qi Manual” as soon as possible.
Whether it was the Fire Dragon or the Formless Dragon, there were no previous records of riding, requiring him to figure things out on his own.
Fortunately, a Light Green Gem Dragon had passed through the hands of several Dragon Knights, leaving behind many valuable experiences for Li Si Te to refer to. Relying on this experience and constant exploration with Leo, he had already begun to compile two manuals on dragon riding, “Liszt’s Complete Dragon Knight Training Manual” and “Fire Dragon Knight – Dragon Qi’s Manual.”
Among the “Fire Dragon Knight-Dragon Qi Secret Manual” is a pure Dou Qi cultivation and combat manual, which currently stops at five moves—Dragon Slash – Chop, Sky Burning – Sweep, Swallow Sun – Stab, Sea-Boiling – Strangle, and Earth-Shaking – Hammer.
“Liszt’s Complete Dragon Knight Training Manual”, on the other hand, is a miscellany recording all the bits and pieces about dragon riding training. It covers how to prepare before riding a dragon, techniques for the battle of the minds, the development of abilities on a dragon’s body, and many non-combatant skills.
Skills such as Dragon Magic Refining Qi, Dragon Breath Tempering, Dragon Force Focus, Dragon Heart Electrical Signal, Dragon Blood Infection, Dragon Knight Resonance, Dragon Eye Trajectory, and so on are all detailed.
Not limited to the cultivation of fire dragons, he hoped this book would become the standard introductory manual for all dragon knights.
It served as a family heirloom for generations to read, increasing the likelihood of descendants becoming dragon knights and preserving the family’s eternal foundation for a thousand generations.
“Bard, let’s try running the Dragon Eye Trajectory!”
“Whii-yah!”
The wind was howling. Liszt, along with the Formless Dragon, had entered invisibility and kept flying downstream along the Whirlpool River, which hugged Flame Origin. The small river had a large volume of water, after all, it was formed by the Whirlpool Waterfall rushing down from Whirlpool Mountain, winding its way down, gradually expanding the water’s surface.
The small river turned into a large river.
Various tributaries flowed into Whirlpool River, expanding the river’s width repeatedly. Where it was only two meters wide at Flame Origin, by three hundred kilometers downstream, it had reached fifty meters in width. Where another river, about thirty-something meters wide, converged, it began to flow from southeast to southwest.
At this point, the water flow of the river increased dramatically, and two hundred kilometers further, the river had widened to over one hundred and thirty meters.
“It can be called the Whirlpool Great River now!” Liszt admired, and at that time, another eighty-meter-wide river merged into it, turning downstream to flow westward.
About fifty kilometers later, the river took a steep turn, bending south again, and the width of the water surface reached an astonishing five hundred meters.
By the time it reached the sea, the width was unknown, as there was a large delta formed by the impact of the Whirlpool Great River, with sparse trees growing, resembling a vast marshland.
“Taking Whirlpool Mountain as the main trunk of Whirlpool Great River, the total length is about one thousand kilometers, roughly the same as the Huai River on Earth. Also, the terrain of the Whirlpool Great River Basin is relatively flat, reminiscent of the fish and rice region between the Jianghuai rivers. I wonder if it’s possible to develop this place as the fish and rice region of Whirlpool River.”
On the Legendary Continent, human development mainly revolves around river basins.
The area of Flame Island is enormous, and it’s impossible to develop it all quickly, so Liszt plans to focus on the Whirlpool Great River Basin as the main development area in the future.
But of course,
It’s not set in stone.
Whirlpool Great River is just one corner in the southeast of Flame Island; perhaps other parts of the island have more extensive and fertile river basins that are more suitable for development.
“Bard, let’s find a place to rest at the mouth of the Whirlpool River and take the opportunity to analyze why the Dragon Eye Trajectory is still not being deployed.”
They landed on a small hill that rose at the river mouth. The Formless Dragon let out a sound: “Whii-yah.”
It was asking Liszt for some Smoked Grass.
“Here.” Liszt pulled out a stalk of Smoked Grass and stuffed it into the Formless Dragon’s mouth. The Formless Dragon immediately began to chew joyfully, savoring the released flavors.
This stuff shouldn’t be eaten too much; too much can lead to overexcitement.
Liszt, without sureptitiously, took out a mask and put it on his face.
The Formless Dragon had many advantages; the only sad part was its peculiar taste in Smoked Grass. Fortunately, the digestive power of dragon saliva is strong. After eating the Smoked Grass, the smell would quickly dissipate with the wind, without leaving any residual odor in its mouth.
“In the future, eat grass in places where no one else is, or you’ll lose all your image points.”
