"Then my first question! You stinky Black Lizard, the Dragon Emperor's Child you're talking about wouldn't happen to be me, would it?" Ellie asked, pointing at her own nose.
From how many times this guy had said that strange term, it felt like it was always directed at her, so Ellie naturally suspected.
"Who else could it be but you?! Only the Dragon Emperor's Child can use the Dragon Emperor's Soulfire Blast, right?! I never thought the Dragon Emperor would actually… with a lowly human! This is…!"
The Black Lizard stopped mid-sentence when she saw Ellie's icy gaze.
Uh… it seems this Black Lizard misunderstood something, and when this guy first appeared, she also mentioned the Seven-Colored Dragon King and other Dragon Kings many times.
And the reason this guy appeared here was because she was led here by the Seven-Colored Dragon King? If she thought about it carefully like that…
"I see… I generally understand. First, let me tell you! I am not some Dragon Emperor's Child; you need to be clear on that!" Ellie said, pointing at the Dragon's head.
"If you say you're not, then you're not…" Seeing Ellie's displeased expression, the Destruction Dragon King replied cautiously.
However, from her tone, she didn't believe Ellie's statement, and Sir Xia Na also harbored doubts about Ellie.
Sir Xia Na also looked as if she was waiting for an explanation, constantly watching Ellie.
"And the second question, you just said you were led here by the Seven-Colored Dragon King? Explain the detailed process to me, every single detail!" To confirm her guess, Ellie walked over again, stepped on the Black Lizard's head, and continued to ask.
"It's just… that scoundrel Seven-Colored sent a subordinate to my territory to provoke trouble. I was so angry that I brought my dependents to chase after that guy, and then I was ambushed by you! At first, I thought that scoundrel Seven-Colored had teamed up with Rotting Coffin and Azure Sky to scheme against me, but I didn't expect even the Dragon Emperor… uh… even you to jump out in the end. Looking at you, you were also kept in the dark, weren't you?!"
After the Black Lizard saw Ellie's icy gaze again, she could only change her words. It was obvious that this guy really didn't believe that Ellie wasn't some Dragon Emperor's Child.
With that said, Ellie was completely convinced.
So, the owner of the Ranch and the territory that was attacked earlier was the Seven-Colored Dragon King, not the Destruction Dragon King as she initially thought.
It was also mentioned in the original work that the Seven-Colored Dragon King was quite intelligent. It seems that after the Seven-Colored Dragon King found out there was an uninvited guest in her territory, she came up with a plan to kill with a borrowed knife.
She had her subordinate lead the Destruction Dragon King into this area. Regardless of which side was eliminated, the Seven-Colored Dragon King would ultimately benefit.
This guy really has a trick up her sleeve!
It seems the most troublesome enemy is indeed the Seven-Colored Dragon King. A guy who uses her brain is much harder to deal with than a guy who only uses her fists!
Moreover, this territory still belongs to the Seven-Colored Dragon King. Causing trouble under the nose of such a strategic character really requires extreme caution!
"It really is that Seven-Colored Dragon King causing trouble, isn't it? Then the third question, you've fought with the Seven-Colored Dragon King, right! Spit out all the information you know about the Seven-Colored Dragon King to me!" Ellie continued to ask.
Since it was in the Seven-Colored Dragon King's territory, it seems the next target to deal with is her. And this guy is a Dragon King who lived for six hundred years later, and she can't be directly killed. This guy is indeed a big trouble, so she must grasp as much information about her as possible.
"Of course! That guy is my neighbor, often…" The Black Lizard hadn't finished speaking when Ellie's crisis sense came online again, and she directly jumped onto the Black Lizard's head.
"Holy Shield! Who is it?!" As soon as Ellie jumped onto the Black Lizard's head, she used another defensive skill she learned from Albedo.
Because the speed was too fast to determine what was attacking, she could only use Holy Shield, a skill that reduces direct damage, to block it.
If she knew what it was, she could have used Jericho's Wall to transfer the damage to the gauntlet of her Champion Armor.
Then, what hit her was a bolt of lightning… Since the Holy Shield skill only reduces damage, although it was blocked, Ellie was still shocked by the lightning.
However, the numbness caused by the electric shock was instantly dispelled by the Guardian Ring on her finger.
It was clear that this lightning bolt was not aimed at Ellie, but at the Destruction Dragon King. Coming at this critical moment, Ellie already knew who the next character to appear was.
"Your reaction is quite fast, Dragon Emperor's Child…" Sure enough, in the sky not far away, a silver giant dragon and a slightly smaller red giant dragon, which were originally transparent, revealed their figures.
When were they ambushing there?! She had her biological sensor on, yet she didn't detect them at all! Seeing the two giant dragons appear, Ellie was a little flustered, although she didn't show it on the surface.
"Seven-Colored! You scoundrel!! Are you trying to kill me?!" The Destruction Dragon King beneath Ellie's feet instantly lost her composure and roared directly.
"Isn't that an obvious question? As long as I deal with you here, all your territory will be mine."
The silver giant dragon flew directly down from the sky and landed in front of Ellie. Under the sunlight, its silver scales reflected various colorful lights, which were quite dazzling.
Is this guy the Seven-Colored Dragon King? She's actually a silver dragon. I thought this guy's body was colorful, which is why she had the title of Seven-Colored Dragon King. So it's by reflection… Ellie thought.
"Oh-ho! To steal someone else's prey, you colorful Black Lizard are truly impolite!" Ellie put on a very displeased expression. Facing the silver giant dragon in front of her, Ellie was completely fearless.
"That is truly rude… After all, this guy and I have a bit of a grudge. I didn't expect the Dragon Emperor's Child to step in to protect her. If I hurt you, please allow me to apologize." The Seven-Colored Dragon King bowed her head respectfully to Ellie.
This guy is a bit difficult to deal with… Ellie thought to herself after seeing the Seven-Colored Dragon King's attitude towards her, and after hearing her call her a colorful Black Lizard.
Yet she showed no sign of anger at all. Just now, the Destruction Dragon King was furious when she heard Ellie call her a Black Lizard, and she even respectfully apologized to Ellie.
Moreover, she immediately called her the Dragon Emperor's Child. It was obvious that this guy must have been secretly watching the entire battle between Ellie and the Destruction Dragon King.
After all, it was originally a trap set by that scoundrel Seven-Colored Dragon King.
