Chapter 52: Persuasion
Chapter 52: Convince
“What can be done about this …?”
Tania was referring to the problem of transporting the red young dragons back to the Dragon’s Nest camp.
This thing weighed almost half a ton, and the nets and chains they had on hand had crumbled and broken during the previous hunt, especially under David’s final lunge, so even if they were to directly cut the flax family shrub vines and rub the rope on the spot, and then tie it up and lift it by manpower, it would still take quite a few days and hours.
She had no problem with that, but she was sure her cranky old brother would never have the patience for it.
On the other hand, David, who had already been scratched and bloodied, was not too keen to get his hands on this Sichuan Spicy Dragon anytime soon.
It is even more unlikely that he would let his sister take the risk of doing this kind of high-risk hard work:
As long as the other party did not cooperate, once the ability of Flame Spit was restored, it would be a time bomb.
Not a description, but a bomb in the true sense of the word.
This is something that David, who has had a similar experience, can completely explain.
Other dragons didn’t know, but the red dragon definitely had this ability.
Even if Davey and the others tied the little female dragon’s mouth into a mining drill like he did back then by Drell, and tied it on the back of Murphylle, who was still a white fledgling dragon, and turned back to the campsite.
But as long as the other party is bent on the idea of dying with the enemy directly forced to spit, the entire dragon will be turned into a biochemical bomb that explodes on the spot!
Bang!
Blowing all of their entourage up into the sky.
But just let it go, right?
Let’s not talk about face!
He’s been working his ass off for half a month with one or two hundred people, and for what?
Moreover, it is foreseeable that catching dragons will only encounter all kinds of unexpected troubles in the future, so is it possible to give up every time?
Most importantly, this was the first dragon he had planned to catch.
No matter what, he had to take it!
“Tsk, let me take care of this kind of problem.”
Davey thought about it, and had to, a small self-sacrifice of color.
He re-twisted his head, and said menacingly to the already dead female dragon:
“Actually, I wasn’t lying to you earlier.”
“Hmph!” Lizlette twisted her head in a disinterested manner.
Out of the corner of her eye, however, she saw the other party once again reveal that devilish smile from before:
“I just fell in love with you today, this slutty female red dragon, ready to forcibly bring back to the lair to play evil nurturing, and then take you when you grow up.”
This time, David’s words have not yet spoken, originally because of his brother’s this sudden transformation is still a bit confused Tania, stunned to realize that the female red dragon’s will to live again ‘alive’ over, the sky up to let out a roar of anger to interrupt:
“You don’t want to have your way! Lizlette will definitely take you down.”
In the face of the ‘dragon family’s broad young man’ who had comprehensively crushed her in terms of physique, strength, and dragon hands, as a wandering young dragon, she realized that her resistance was so pale and powerless that she was running out of words even if she wanted to say something cruel.
Even more so because as the other party was saying this, that flexible and powerful tail had wrapped around her neck and whispered against the webbing of her ear:
“Lizlette, right? How about, how about we play a game?”
“Ummm what?” Lizlette could only feel the right half of her face tingling, the scales on her neck standing up, and for the first time in her life, she was in such a weak and futile predicament.
“Look, you and I are both just young dragons right now, so even if I wanted to do something to you, I couldn’t do much more than what I’m doing right now.”
“What else do you want to do!?” Lizlette instinctively struggled up, but to no avail.
“Since I’m not destined to do anything to you for decades, what are you afraid of?”
David followed his words like a devil:
“So why don’t you come back to the Dragon’s Nest camp with me, at that time I will provide you with food and shelter that is enough to grow to a young dragon.
“In return, I need you to make appropriate contributions to my camp, whether it is to hunt, watch over other young dragons, or use them as combat power for me.
“As for whether you want to flee immediately afterward, or out of greed you want to flee closer to the time when I can do something to you.
“Is where the heart and fun of this game of ours lies.” This unbelievably blunt answer instantly dry-burned the female red dragon’s already small brain memory, leading directly to the ‘answer’ David had just shoved in there:
‘That’s right, since the worst thing expected won’t happen, why am I still seeking death?’
“Right…?”
Seeing the fruitfulness of the situation, David, not knowing whether it was because he was a red dragon and his head had gone up in the air for a moment or whether he had gotten himself into the act, immediately wrapped his arms around the silver dragon sister beside him, who was a bit torn, and pressed it against his chin, just like a true son of the Evil Dragon:
“You see, this silver young dragon is also I half a year ago to force captive back, now not also good.”
“Hey! Brother. You.”
Suddenly suffered David paste paste, Tania also a little confused, just she could have easily break free, but immediately comprehended the meaning of David, immediately forced to endure the shyness to cooperate:
“Hmph! Brother you watch, I will definitely escape on the day you step into the Youth Dragon.”
But this gesture was what shook the red dragon Lizlette to the point where her jaw dropped:
“Are you crazy? You dare to kidnap a Silver Young Dragon?”
At the same time also finally explained her previous doubts, otherwise a good for nothing a silver dragon, how would follow the red dragon to act together, but also called each other brother it!
Otherwise the red dragon and silver dragon called brother and sister, in the end is she crazy, or is this world crazy.
“It’s out of your hands, just ask if you dare, right?”
As soon as this red dragon was provoked, even though she clearly knew that David was provoking her, that fire of unwillingness to concede rubbed off on her and she gritted her teeth and laughed:
“Good, since you even dared to provoke the silver dragon, what else would I, Lizlette, not dare to do.
“Maybe you don’t even have to wait until you step into your youth, you’ll be ended by the metal dragons that came to the nest.”
Saying these words that slightly made her heart happy, she looked around at the elf ‘dependents’ behind David who were already looking vaguely dumbfounded and said:
“When the time comes, don’t think about those legacies of yours on your way to the Evil Scale Fortress of the Five-Colored Dragon Queen.”
“Hehe, in the name of our Pentachrome Dragon ancestors, you definitely won’t regret this choice.” Seeing that the other party had finally bitten the bait, David immediately grinned.
Lizlette followed with a sneer:
“But I can guarantee that you will regret this decision, for sure.”
“That’s a matter of talking about it later, we’re both still just red young dragons, there’s a long time to come.” David spread his claws in disbelief.
“Hmph.” Lizlette took a deep breath and said seriously:
“Then in the name of our five-colored dragon ancestor, Lizzie Lit is at your disposal before leaving the asylum, say, what do you need me to do?”
“What’s the hurry, it’s almost the full moon, all the other stray young dragons that have come out to roam like you should return to their nests and sleep, let’s also return to the camp to fill up our stomachs first.”
“Good.” The female red dragon agreed with alacrity.
“Alright, let her go, from now on, she’s her own dragon.”
David waved his tail at the group of elves who had been completely dumbfounded, then let go of the silver dragon sister whose body had gone a bit rigid, spreading his claws, with a look that seemed to say:
Look, screw it, straight up convincing.
Tania, too, was beaming with joy and blinking:
Brother you’re awesome!
David, however, is unimpressed.
As long as the original purpose could be achieved, whether the words were said positively or negatively, or which statement the other party wanted to believe, was it that important?
Is it that important?
At least to him, it didn’t.
But just as David was preparing to return to the camp with a line of dog-tired elf prisoners, a muffled bang suddenly sounded in the distance.
David immediately twisted his head somewhat incredulously:
“This fucking works?”
That was the sound of the dragon trap cage triggering.
