Dawn of the Grey Tower

What's it like to be stared at by a dragon as huge as a cloud? Huge doesn't need additional conditions, just itself is enough to feel oppressive. That gigantic thing in the sky, so terrifying and so beautiful.

People's feelings for beauty and horror are sometimes quite subtle. Beasts are scary, but when they become pets, they become beautiful. The premise of appreciation is that you stand in a relatively safe perspective, or simply don't care about your own safety. Those who saw werewolves and vampires, and were honored to approach them, already had their own rational or crazy plans for death.

No one can avoid this. Those who are fearless are not really without fear, because they will not have the courage to fight terror. The only things that are truly fearless are stones and machines.

So the cheese is scared, naturally. Especially when the giant dragon obviously turned in the air after seeing him, and swooped towards the place where the gray-robed mage was, although it would not be a battle between the two, it was inevitable that the back would feel chilly. Facing such a scene with another person, running away seems to be the best choice.

But the cheese knows that it's meaningless, the dragon's glasses are no worse than the eagle's, when it sees you in the sky, then it won't chase you again. What's more, giant dragons are not beasts, they are ancient species with extremely high intelligence. Even if the tricks that people can think of, even if they are unexpected at the beginning, they will be understood by giant dragons after a while.

This is why current intelligent creatures generally regard giant dragons as a species higher than their own life forms. The dual crushing of strength and wisdom makes them really as small as ants in front of dragons.

What about mages? Does he consider himself an ant too? of course not. As a gray robe who has a long-term cooperative relationship with a young red dragon, Cheese doesn't have that much awe for the dragon. But his knowledge had the opposite effect at this time. As we all know, the strength of dragons is almost directly proportional to their age, and age is also proportional to their body size. Huge dragons, huge dragons, are the first characteristics of these existences.

So just by looking at the size of the dragon, the mage probably knows how long the thing has survived, and how much experience and knowledge it has accumulated. Faced with such an existence, running away and begging for mercy are meaningless. The best choice right now is to face it. Even if you are afraid in your heart, you must show that you have no fear on the surface. Only in this way can you exchange for possible communication. Chance. Of course, having said that, there is still a gap between the dragon and the evil god, and cheese's composure is not all forced.

It didn't take long for the clouds in the sky to fall to the ground. This is something that other birds cannot do. The membrane between the dragon's wings looks similar to that of a bat. In fact, the toughness of the two is quite different. The drunkard in the tavern thought that the skin membrane was the weak link of the dragon through his imagination, and did not realize that it was these wings that supported the weight of the entire dragon in the air. They were so strong that ordinary swords could touch them The damage caused was minimal.

The rapid landing of the giant dragon is also entirely dependent on the pair of wings that can bear the impact of the fall. When the behemoth fell to the ground, it only caused a slight breeze that could blow the hem of Qisi's clothes. There is also the reason why the dragon is not hostile, and more importantly, it is the flying skills he has mastered that can be called art.

"It's an honor to meet you here." Before the other party could speak, Cheese greeted him in Dragon Language. Dragons who are interested in humans are likely to speak human language, but there are only a handful of humans who can learn dragon language, proving that one's unfathomableness is a means of mastering the initiative in communication.

Sure enough, the giant dragon raised his non-existent eyebrows in an extremely humane way, his body shielded from the sun leaned forward slightly, his head was tilted to the left, so that he could see the whole image of the cheese clearly with a pair of glasses.

After taking a deep breath, the giant dragon slowly said, "I'm also very honored to meet a highly skilled spellcaster here. You seem to have stepped into an area where the clansmen seldom go, are you lost? ?”

Dragons have a keen sense of smell, in every sense, and they can smell magic like breathing air, so it is very difficult for mages to hide their identities in front of dragons. But compared to this, Cheese was more surprised by the other party's voice, which was a soft female voice. When she spoke in human language, the contrast between the words and the image of the speaker seemed quite fragmented.

This split shows that the other party did not use his own throat to speak, but used magic to simulate syllables to form words. In other words, this is a giant dragon that is good at casting spells.

"It is true. I encountered an unexpected storm while traveling, and I was forced to stay here to find a way to leave." Cheese did not say that he had a companion, a lost mage and a group of humans led by the mage. The former is obviously easier Gain the dragon's goodwill.

"That storm is really fresh in my memory. I haven't seen that much rain since thirty centuries. It reminds me of the era of the ocean, when there was only a small part of the land. I hate that era, wet Seems like it's never going to dry the scales. Let's hope this is just an occasional rain and not a sign of some climate cycle, or you'd better be a prophet now and tell your kind to build some boats big enough." Will be joking Dragon, a rare quality. Humor has nothing to do with wisdom, dragons can generally understand humor, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com, but if you want them to tell a joke in person?

"Then I have to think that this storm is indeed some kind of will. After all, it is not easy to find so many huge logs when you leave here." Cheese smiled and said to the other party. Dragon has been friendly so far, hopefully she's just trying to satisfy her desire to communicate.

"Hehe, you don't seem to be unfamiliar with giant dragons? Do you know a certain or a few giant dragons?" It is reasonable to guess that only people who have a certain friendship with giant dragons will react in this way when facing dragons. It is impossible for a dragon slayer to respond to the dragon so kindly, and those who have never seen a dragon will tend to flatter.

"I have been working with a red friend for a while, but the connection between us has been temporarily interrupted. To be honest, I am working on restoring contact with him, and let him come here to take me away." People do not love each other, long life brings long-term hatred, but just like human beings, such an elderly dragon will never make things difficult for a young dragon who was born not long ago in her eyes, and his human friends. Furthermore, Cheese also has some doubts about the repair list for the Dragon Calling Flute given by the evil spirit.

"You smell like snow. Are you from the north?"

"yes."
