I have a Synthesizer

#211 - Slaying the Dragon (Continued)

The crystal dragon, Ai Yi, let out a massive, tragic howl.

“Aaaargh!~”

Having her entire right arm chopped off was something she never could have imagined. Prisms could reflect magic, and Klein's physical attacks weren't particularly strong. She had just escaped from a thousand years of confinement, which was why she had been so unrestrained.

And then she was slapped in the face—not just slapped, but her claws were chopped off too. A high-level mage chopping off a legendary dragon's claws? No one would believe it if you said it out loud.

Ai Yi looked at the skeletal giant emitting black flames before her. Years of sealing had left her body extremely weak.

Facing the Decayed Monarch standing before her, Ai Yi felt an unprecedented threat. Today, she might really die.

“Wait! We can make a deal.”

Before Ai Yi could finish speaking, Klein's greatsword had already struck her other claw, sending dragon blood flying. The black-flame greatsword also severed Ai Yi's left arm.

“Ah!~”

Ai Yi howled again in agony. Losing both arms meant that even if she managed to escape, her strength would be greatly reduced. Moreover, Klein clearly had no intention of negotiating with her.

The crystal dragon's severe injuries and screams of pain freed Agatha from the control of her bloodline's power. She clutched her head and stood up, watching Klein hacking away at the crystal dragon, Ai Yi, and muttered.

“That's a legendary dragon! Hacking at a legendary dragon like that? Is this guy really a mage?!”

Due to the bloodline suppression, dragonkin who entered the ancient ruins found it very difficult to attack Ai Yi. Therefore, this kind of indiscriminate hacking at the crystal dragon was quite shocking to Agatha.

Maintaining the Decayed Monarch form was rapidly depleting Klein's magic power. Although he had a lot of magic, sustaining this combat state was still very taxing.

The crystal dragon had to die, and to be on the safe side, Klein thought it best to kill her before his magic ran out and the Decayed Monarch form automatically dispelled.

Klein gripped the greatsword with both hands and leaped up, the giant sword, wreathed in black flames, plunging towards the crystal dragon's head. But at the last moment before it made contact, something resembling a mirror appeared on the crystal dragon's head.

This mirror-like defense was similar to Klein's static field, but much stronger.

Ai Yi suddenly opened her massive jaws, enduring the power of the sealing pillar, forcibly extending her head, and allowing the sealing pillar to tear away large amounts of flesh from her neck.

But even at such a great cost, she resolutely bit down on the lower half of the Decayed Monarch's body.

The bite force of a legendary dragon was something Klein simply couldn't withstand in his current state, not even in the Decayed Monarch form.

Ai Yi completely ignored the searing of the Shadowflame, severing the giant bones extending from Klein, tearing off half of the Decayed Monarch's body in an instant.

With Klein exposed to Ai Yi's attack range after losing the protection of the bones, the crystal dragon lunged at Klein with her second bite. If she wanted to live, she had to kill Klein.

But Klein smiled. Ai Yi had used too much power to attack the Decayed Monarch, which caused her already weakened prism to finally succumb to Klein's attack and shatter!

“Crack!”

The black-flame greatsword pierced through the mirror surface, entering through the crystal dragon, Ai Yi's, forehead and sinking into her brain.

… …

The Decayed Monarch's bones gradually dissipated, and the Shadowflame on the black-flame greatsword also gradually disappeared, reverting to its normal Gleaming Moon form.

Klein weakly collapsed on the dragon's head, his magic power and stamina completely exhausted. He simply didn't have any strength left.

And before him were the crystal dragon's huge eyes. The vertical pupils seemed to have lost their luster, causing Klein to murmur in a low voice.

“Her brain's been pierced, she should be dead, right?”

Just as Klein finished speaking, he suddenly felt something was wrong. Ai Yi's eyeballs seemed to have moved.

He wanted to retreat, but he really didn't have the strength.

“Aaaargh!”

The crystal dragon suddenly raised its head, sending Klein flying into the sky. The crystal dragon, Ai Yi's, last will was to kill Klein, the guy who dared to kill her.

As the crystal dragon opened its massive jaws, Ai Yi's consciousness gradually dissipated. This was her last instinct.

Just as Klein was about to fall into the dragon's mouth, Agatha, in her small dragon form, grabbed his back, snatching him from the dragon's jaws and flinging him to the ground, saving Klein's life.

“Thanks.”

Lying on the ground, Klein gasped for breath, feeling the relief of surviving a disaster, and also the immense excitement of killing a legendary dragon.

As Klein got back to his feet, the crystal dragon's dragon soul turned into a wisp of white smoke and gradually entered Klein's magic book.

Klein hurriedly flipped the magic book to the end, where a huge soulstone diagram appeared.

【Crystal Dragon Soulstone】

Grade: Miracle.

Effect 1 - Carrier: Can serve as an excellent soul carrier, storing enough souls to supply Klein's Book with energy.

Agatha walked over to Klein and said.

“What about this corpse now?”

Klein was indeed in a dilemma. The corpse was too large, and he had no way to take it all away. Putting that aside for now, he needed to get his hands on the most valuable dragon soul and dragon crystal first.

“Agatha, this dragon corpse is pretty big. As a dragonkin, you should need to bathe in dragon blood, right? Hurry up and take a bath in the dragon blood, don't waste it! Go quickly.”

Klein didn't dare to fall out with Agatha now. Not only had she just saved him, but in terms of strength, he really didn't have a single drop left—well, he meant magic power, not anything else weird.

The spells in the magic book weren't instant, and he had already used 'Composure'. If Agatha really wanted to turn hostile, Klein estimated he would be hung up and beaten. Life was too hard.

Agatha looked at Klein with a suspicious expression. Letting her bathe in dragon blood? Why was this guy suddenly so kind? Something was wrong.

“Klein, what are you going to do now?”

Klein looked around and suddenly remembered that his sword was still in the crystal dragon's head, so he quickly said.

“I'm going to find my sword. You go quickly, I won't peek at you.”

Speaking of peeking, Agatha's face turned red. Hadn't he seen enough already? And before, he had been looking openly.

But Agatha didn't refute it. What Klein said was also true. If dragonkin could bathe in dragon blood, it would definitely lead to a significant improvement. Now that there was fresh dragon blood, she definitely couldn't miss it.

“Then be careful, I'm going to get the dragon blood.”

“Okay, okay, go quickly. If you're any later, the dragon blood will get cold.”

Watching Agatha leave, Klein finally breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't seem to have noticed that he was already in a weakened state? That was good, that was good.

Klein climbed onto the dragon's head again. Even such a simple action was a bit difficult now.

Staggering to the crystal dragon's head, Klein drank a large magic potion and extended several bone hands, rummaging around inside the crystal dragon's head.

Before long, Klein found a hard object at the back of her brain. This object seemed to be connected to many nerves. Klein pulled hard and yanked the hard thing out.

Crystal Dragon Crystal

Grade: Miracle

Effect - Prism: Consumes a certain amount of magic power to reflect elemental magic.

Introduction: The most powerful, the most top-tier magic material.

A plain and unadorned introduction, exactly the kind of simple thing Klein liked.

Although it was a material, it already possessed a completely independent effect. Just holding it in his hand now allowed him to reflect elemental magic, which was truly awesome.

But what was a bit frustrating was that Klein currently didn't have any other miracle materials. How annoying! If he had other materials, combining these four miracle materials now, would it be possible to create a miracle equipment?

Not to mention reaching the effect of Klein's Book, but even the most garbage miracle item was still a miracle item, and it would likely come with the prism effect, elemental reflection—an ability even the elemental dragons feared.

“In the end, it's still because I'm poor. I'll go back and see if Jay's Society has any cheap miracle materials.”

Klein's requirements were simple. First, it had to be miracle-grade; second, it had to be cheap. As long as these two conditions were met, and with the crystal dragon crystal as the main body, he wouldn't care what the other materials were used for, as he had a synthesizer.

He smiled and put away the dragon crystal, secretly glancing in Agatha's direction. Hmm, that silly girl was still bathing, bathing well, using the dragon blood as much as she wanted, no need to be polite.

But thinking of the powerful effects of bathing in dragon blood or drinking dragon blood mentioned in books, Klein suddenly wanted to try it too.

He extended the blood-sucking needles of the Evil Spirit Gauntlet, as he rarely used them anymore, because the bone extension effect was much better.

Just as the blood-sucking needles were about to pierce into the crystal dragon's body, Klein suddenly stopped.

In his mind, he suddenly recalled the words of his mother, Katie, from when he had only been in this world for a few days.

【Klein, promise me, never try to fuse warlock bloodlines lightly. That is definitely not a path suitable for you.】

“Don't undergo bloodline fusion? Now that I think about it, my mother's words at the time were more like a clear indication.

She allowed me to cultivate the abilities of a warlock, fel energy, hellish power, summoning demons, void creatures—all of that was fine.

The only thing I shouldn't touch was bloodline fusion! My mother definitely knew something about my bloodline, and even had some understanding of the ancient ruins.”

Klein decided that after returning to Jay's Society this time, if he had the opportunity to carry out a mission to the east, he would definitely go to the Eastern Territory to meet his mother.

His strength was already vastly different from before. If he directly asked Katie, he might get some of the answers Klein wanted.

Thinking of this, Klein slowly lowered his hand. Compared to his father, Asmond, his mother, Katie, was more trustworthy. Her reminder would definitely not be groundless.

“Forget it! I'd better not court death. Dragon blood is good, but my own talent isn't bad either. If I use dragon blood and lose my other talents, any loss would outweigh the gains.”
