Chapter 14 (2/2)

The beast’s body was covered in scales. It coiled around the pillar and held its head high. It stood at the top of the pillar, emitting a powerful and domineering aura.

Chris had noticed this stone pillar when he first came here.

At first, when he saw such an eye-catching pillar, he thought there would be something hidden inside. After probing it a few times, he failed to elicit any reaction from it.

Eventually, he gave up.

Now, under Robert’s lead, he saw this strange stone pillar again.

Could there be some secret hidden inside?

Chris sensed that this might be related to the druids that the Elf Queen had mentioned last time.

“You’ve stayed in the Ancient Tree of Knowledge for quite some time, and you’ve read a lot of books. You should have some understanding of the bloodline power of the orcs, right?”

Chris nodded in response to Robert’s question. “The orcs can’t cultivate combat aura, nor do they have any magic talent, but they have their own advantages. They have a strong physique and bloodline power. The stronger the bloodline, the stronger their strength.”

In the Orc Kingdom, orcs with Saint-level bloodlines were the most powerful existences. Their bloodlines were equivalent to human Saint-level powerhouses.

Hearing Chris’s answer, Robert nodded. “You’re right.”

“Actually, among us elves, we once had a bloodline training secret technique that was not inferior to the orcs’.”

“The elves had something like that too?” Chris did not expect that the elves had such a deep foundation.

He really had no idea about this because the books did not describe any of this in detail.

“Sigh!” Seeing Chris’ reaction, Robert sighed, as if recalling a distant memory, “A thousand years ago, we elves were the number one clan. We had established a powerful elven empire. At that time, our elven empire was the overlord of the continent.

“Later, the Lich King came into being. To defend against the undead army, our elven kingdom was torn apart.”

It was also during that battle that one of the elves’ most powerful forces was almost completely annihilated.

Chris suddenly remembered reading in one of the ancient scrolls that countless druid warriors had been killed or injured in order to stop the powerful undead army.

“Could this old man be a druid warrior?”

No wonder he could not sense any aura from Robert’s body.

Sure enough, just as Chris figured it out, Robert, who was standing at the side, suddenly roared. His hunched body made cracking sounds.

Under the weak moonlight, Chris could clearly see that Robert, who was hunched just a moment ago, had mysterious runes flashing all over his muscles.

In the blink of an eye, Robert had turned into a three-meter-tall monster with sharp teeth.

Chris was stunned.

However, after transforming, Robert did not realize how terrifying he was. He even made a few poses towards Chris from time to time.

His eyes flickered slightly, as if he was showing off his strong body.

Chris smiled awkwardly and said tactfully, “Um… Mr. Robert, can you change back first? I’m not used to your current state.”

Robert laughed twice, and his body began to shrink before returning to its original size.

Chris seemed dazed, so Robert thought that he was shocked by his overwhelming visage.

“Don’t envy me. In a short time, you’ll be like me, a glorious druid warrior.”

“Ah!”

Chris was stunned. ‘I’m a handsome elf, but you want to make me into a monster as ugly as you are?’

His heart refused.
