Chapter 216: Growth of Long Mian
If you have the time, you might as well inspect your territory more.
The mother dragon oak tree is divided into upper and lower parts.
The upper part is above the branches.
The lower part is the original root system. When it entered the state of war, the ground beneath it was forcibly lifted up to a depth of tens of meters and became a part of his body.
Not only is the Dragon Oak Dragon's Nest intact, but even most of the dark areas are intact, but many places are twisted and misplaced, and the passages that were originally on one plane have become upstairs and downstairs.
The reason for this is simple.
Even if it is greatly reduced, the size of the dragon oak mother tree is still amazing. In order to maintain balance, the lower body must be bloated and heavy enough.
Otherwise, as soon as it lifts its legs, it will fall down first.
The upper part naturally belongs to the fey.
The second half is the world of kobolds led by Gavin.
Out of comprehensive considerations, Gavin decided to temporarily suppress the development speed of Dragon Oak Territory in the rocky land. The overall number of kobolds in the three towns remained at around 20,000.
All the redundant kobolds retreated into the mother dragon oak tree. While building the dragon oak nest, they planted a large number of mushrooms.
Kobolds are quite good at mushroom cultivation. After all, they are cave creatures and rely heavily on caves, especially when they cannot go out to hunt in winter. The fungi produced inside the caves are one of their important food sources.
The first dragon oak dragon nest to be completed is the dragon nest of the young copper dragon.
This is the result of all the kobolds concentrating their efforts and rushing to work in recent days.
Since the counterattack against the useless giant, Iwensa's state has obviously been in something wrong.
The demand for meat has increased significantly. The belly is like a bottomless pit. One meal requires at least one cow, and four or five meals a day.
Except for eating, I was listless and sleepy most of the time.
This is her period of rapid growth, and she is saving energy for Long Mian.
In addition to their legendary greed, dragons are also famous for their long sleep.
Many giant dragons will sleep for a year and a half.
Ten and eight years are also common.
A century or two is not uncommon.
The frequency and duration of dragon sleep are directly proportional to age.
The younger the dragon, the shorter the dragon sleep duration and the fewer times it occurs.
The older the dragon, the longer it lasts and the more times it occurs. Many ancient dragons often sleep for decades or even centuries, and wake up to wreak havoc for months or even a year. After half a year, it will go back to sleep for decades.
The life of a giant dragon is indeed extremely long, often measured in thousands of years, but they are not awake for long and spend most of their time sleeping.
For many older dragons, sleeping for a long time is because they have lived too long and life is a bit boring. It is better to take a nap, then get up and see the different scenery of the world, and search for some treasures by the way. Fill your own dragon's nest.
For young dragons, long-term dragon sleep is often a necessity - they need to use dragon sleep to complete the rapid growth across different age groups.
In other words, the growth of the dragon is not gradual, but at a certain stage, it continuously accumulates strength. After it is saturated, it suddenly grows to the next stage through a long dragon sleep.
Sound familiar?
It is very similar to the professional level improvement of a warrior.
In particular, there are legends that the rapid growth of dragons has little to do with age, but with the wealth they accumulate.
Some dragons who have a lot of wealth but have not reached the growth age have entered a period of rapid growth.
Some dragons who are obviously very old but have relatively poor wealth are unable to enter the next age group.
This characteristic obviously coincides with the professional level.
Gavin has a personal opinion on this, which is to use wealth to measure the influence of the dragon.
The dragon with greater influence grows faster, and vice versa.
So, those dragons that are famous all over the world and possess a lot of treasures are often powerful and terrifying, and have extra professional levels.
"Yawn..." Ivinsa, who was lying on a bed piled with gold coins, let out a long yawn. He was obviously very sleepy, but he still held on and begged, "Gavin, Gavin, Gavin, we will Is it okay to finish telling this story of "Three Strikes of White Bone Demons"? I don't know how long I will sleep this time. If I don't finish listening to this story, it will be considered sleep. I can’t even sleep well.”
“This is already the third paragraph. You said before that you wanted to listen to the beginning, saying that you wanted to take the story to bed, but now you feel that you haven’t finished listening to it. All good things are gone. Let you have it." Gavin decided to take a firm stance and no longer feel soft because of the pitiful appearance of the young copper dragon. He felt that he was coaxing the child to sleep.
"I promise, this time it's true." The young dragon quickly raised his right paw to assure himself.
"This is the last time, I believe. If you still refuse to sleep, I will leave you alone." Gavin decided to give this habitual criminal one last chance.
"Otherwise, I will activate the professional level and stop sleeping?" Iwensa's eyes wandered, and he had a new idea.
If it were in the past, Iwensa would have been overjoyed and couldn't wait to feel like she was about to enter the dragon's sleep of growth.
Because this means that your body is growing rapidly and entering the next stage.
But this time, she was a little entangled, wanting to gain more power.
I don’t want to miss the interesting things happening around Gavin. Looking back carefully, I have only been with Gavin for less than three months, but the things that have happened and my own growth have been more than the total since I was born.
Entering the teenage state at the age of twelve, Ivinsa cannot say that it is unprecedented, but it is also a minority among the minority. Most of them are silver dragons and golden dragons who are gifted and have strong parental guidance and influence.
Like Ivinsa, wild dragons abandoned by their parents usually grow more slowly than ordinary dragons, and many of them do not grow up until they are seventeen or eighteen years old.
On average, the dragon enters the juvenile stage when he is fifteen or sixteen years old, and Roderick entered the juvenile stage at the age of sixteen and a half.
So, when he knew that Ivinsa was about to enter the teenage stage, the jealousy in his expression could not be concealed no matter what, which made Ivinsa full of achievements.
Others don’t know it, but the young red dragon knows very well that the fact that this little cub, Ivinsa, can enter the growth stage so quickly is not because of her extraordinary talent, but because of the devil and half-elf.
Before following Gavin, she was much thinner than the young copper dragons of the same age, and her entry into the juvenile dragon sleep was far away.
"Enable professional level? After opening professional level, can you delay your growth and dragon sleep?" Gavin asked a little surprised.
This was the first time he heard Ivinsa talk about this matter.
The dragon's way of obtaining professional levels is obviously different from that of ordinary creatures. The principles followed can only be explained clearly by the dragon himself, and outsiders may seem confused.
Some dragons will gain several professional levels as teenagers.
Some dragons, even when they grow to adulthood, old age, or even in ancient times, never have a professional level.
"Yes." The young copper dragon nodded repeatedly, cheered up and said, "We enter the growth dragon sleep because the magic power accumulated in the body has reached the upper limit of the current stage, and it must enter the next stage of the body. , but if the professional level is turned on, it will disappear After consuming part of the magic power, the magic elements needed to grow into Long Mian are not enough, so naturally there is no way to enter."
"In other words, the dragon's professional level is in exchange for slowing down the speed of entering the next age stage. "Gavin looked thoughtful.
After understanding this, the dragon's growth method will be completely smoothed out.
It is easier to explain clearly using the concept of game experience value.
It is a dragon, a creature of elemental law, which itself is a kind of professional template.
Whether you are robbing, hunting, or helping others, you will gain experience points.
The greater the impact, the more experience points you gain.
Ewensa is proof of this. Before being hired by him, he was a little wild dragon that hunted for food, harassed young red dragons, and flew around the rocky ground.
The experience you can get every day is quite limited.
But following Gavin was different. The number of kobolds gathered exceeded 20,000, and three or four battles were fought.
The most important thing is that she discovered the Fairy Wilderness with Gavin, helped hunt down the aircraft carrier bugs, and saved the Dragon Oak Mother Tree. She brought her a wealth of experience and made up for all her previous shortcomings. Qi still has some left.
In comparison, Gavin’s speed in gaining experience is relatively slow, which is definitely not comparable to the series of things he has done in recent times.
Normally speaking, even if he does not reach level seven or eight, it should be more than enough to reach level five or above, instead of just meeting the requirements of level four now.
After careful verification, it turned out that he did not gain any experience when the destiny milestone was opened twice.
All the magic laws were sucked away by the milestone of destiny.
In other words, destiny milestones are not given for free, but are obtained by delaying the advancement of professional levels just like the dragon.
This matter can also be in-depth reasoning.
Those who Gavin thought could obtain destiny milestones, but did not obtain them, were because the accumulated experience was not enough and the conditions for activation were not met.
Don’t say that this matter is beyond Gavin’s control, even if he can.
He would also choose Milestone of Destiny without hesitation. After all, this thing is rare, and its practicality is not to mention.
As for the professional level, it can be gradually improved. It is nothing more than doing more things and changing the fate of more people, and this is exactly what he wants to do.
“It can be understood this way.” Aiwensa yawned repeatedly, “What do you think of my idea?”
“Not very good.” Gavin shook his head and refused without hesitation, “ Do you think it’s more important to grow in one age group or to move up a career level? ? In other words, do you think you can beat Roderick after you advance to a professional level? "
"Even if you advance to the same age, you can't beat him," the young copper dragon muttered. "We copper dragons are not known for our combat prowess."
"Don't argue, which one has grown bigger?" Gavin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and his eyes widened.
"It goes without saying that, of course, you will grow bigger as you increase your age, but the magic elements required for the two are different." Iwensa still refused to admit defeat and argued, "After rapid growth, all magic elements will be lost. Empty it and then accumulate it for the next stage, but the professional level is different and it will only disappear After consuming part of it, you only need to make up for the consumed part.”
“It’s still a bit wasteful. If you want to upgrade your career level, wait until the next age group. As long as you meet the needs. Just upgrade it directly, so there will be no waste." Gavin gave a compromise opinion.
Even if I follow myself, after Aiwensa has grown up this time, if he wants to enter the teenage stage again, it will take three to five years instead of ten to eight years. It is better to upgrade a few professional levels appropriately.
"Isn't that different?" Iwensa was still a little reluctant to give up. There are so many fun things and fun things now.
When you wake up again, maybe the place has undergone earth-shaking changes and you will miss a lot.
She believes Gavin has the ability to do this.
“It’s different.” Gavin shook his head and decided to change his mind to persuade the young dragon, “Both the Spring Bud Forest and the Dragon Oak Territory have entered a period of peaceful development in a short period of time. The important thing is no longer to expand, but to consolidate the current results. In the short term, we will not start a war with others, and no one will start a war with us."
