Chapter 176
"It probably has something to do with the fact that it eats everything." Adam placed the two frozen heads behind his back and said to the Devil, "Energy can't be produced out of thin air. I can't be certain if true undead creatures exist, but the snow worm's regenerative ability should be that everything it eats is stored in the form of energy within its body."
Adam stomped on the ground, sweeping away the floating ice and layers of snow. He saw many energy stones beside the broken ice layer. After picking one up, he said, "It seems like this energy stone is indeed its excrement. Most of the remaining energy has been absorbed by it."
He then pierced his sharp nails into the snow worm's head. "Let's see if this thing has a soul." If he could sign a contract with the snow worm, it would be of great help to Adam's next plan.
After a few seconds, the Devil said, "No, it only has the instinct to eat. It's a very strange creature. Even the shattered abyss has a soul, but it doesn't."
Adam was a little disappointed, but it didn't matter. Now that he knew snow worms existed in the Frozen Plains, he could naturally think of ways to gather these monsters to serve him in the future.
Canbi flew over with a face full of adoration. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Adam tossing the snow worm's two large heads to him. He hurriedly caught them in a fluster. Even though their gigantic mouthparts were sealed in ice, they still looked extremely terrifying. After pondering for a moment, he used another vine to tie them together.
"My Lord! You're really too strong! "
Adam waved his claws at him, then grabbed the vine and pulled the Draconian to his front. He asked with interest, "What are you?"
Rice displayed extreme anger. He opened his mouth and breathed out a fine breath of ice element at Adam's face. He then cursed, "Hypocritical Evil Dragon!"
Canbi's expression turned cold. Sharp thorns grew out from the vine binding Rice and pierced into his body. "Draconian bastard! Who allowed you to speak to the Lord like that? "
Canbi was furious. Just as he was about to teach this bastard Draconian a lesson, Adam interrupted him. "Wait, let him go."
Canbi heavily slammed Rice to the ground and threatened, "Behave, bastard."
Rice was not afraid at all. He spat at Adam and said, "You don't have to pretend, evil dragon!"
Adam wasn't angry at all. He stepped forward and easily flipped Rice over. Grabbing Rice's body, he said to himself, "It really is a dragon head, not a prop. And this tail, interesting. "
Rice struggled and cursed incessantly, some of which were probably village slang. Although Adam could understand the common tongue, he could not do anything about it. He simply filtered out the trash talk and asked, "So Drakonids are hybrids of dragons and other races?"
"Evil dragon! Let me go! "
Adam remained unmoved and continued to ask, "Then which side of your parents are dragons? It's hard to believe that an adult dragon can actually mate with an ordinary race. "
Rice was not satisfied and wanted to spit at Adam again. However, he was kicked back by Adam and fainted in anger. Kaiser had just woken up to see the scene of the evil dragon slaughtering the Drakonids. His mouth twitched and he fainted again.
Canbi cautiously walked over and said, "My Lord, I know a little about the Drakonids."
Adam gestured for him to grab the spoils of war and fly into the air. "Very well. Let's talk as we walk. We need to find a place to rest before the next blizzard arrives."
Along the way, Adam learned about the Drakonids from Canbi's introduction.
To put it simply, they were indeed the offspring of dragons and elves. However, not every Drakonid was born that way. After the first Drakonids, they formed a race and could marry within their own race. However, they were not very popular due to their draconic traits and aura. They usually lived miserably in remote and desolate places. Recently, it was probably due to the Dragon Slayer Organization that they were able to walk out into the light.
Adam was very interested in this race. Generally speaking, reproductive isolation existed between races, but perhaps there was a way to break it in the Extraordinary world. In other words, although Drakonids were hybrids, they could be considered direct descendants of dragons. Therefore, could they possess scattered inherited knowledge?
Inherited knowledge meant power that could be used 'legally'. Although his combat prowess had improved once again after he obtained the method of elemental activation, he had only seen the tip of the iceberg of the dragon plane. Leaving aside the possibility of Hyperdimensional dragons, the existence of the Dragon Slayer Organization was also a huge variable. Only by constantly strengthening himself could he face such variables calmly.
After flying at full speed for a day and a night, Adam stopped and said, "Alright, it's decided here."
Canbi landed on the ground with the four ice lumps floating behind him. He looked around at the flat land without a trace of shelter and asked doubtfully, "My lord, why here? Can this place withstand the blizzard? "
Adam spread his Draconic Aura to the maximum range and flew a few laps around the area, chasing away a few small creatures that were hiding underground. He then said with satisfaction, "Of course I can't stop them now, but I'll be able to stop them soon."
"Eh?"
"Because I want to build a city here."
Building a city was Adam's next objective.
It was not a sudden idea, but after learning that the dragon plane's races were city-states, it was much more reasonable.
Adam planned to build a free city that would not reject any race or influence, nor differentiate between good and evil. It would only maintain the most basic order of trade. After the city was successfully built, he could hide behind the scenes and gather large amounts of information. He could even use missions to drive the various races to work for him.
As for whether people would come to build a city in such a vile environment, Adam wasn't worried. No benefits would be lacking in pursuers. It wasn't that the icy plains lacked resources, but it lacked a supply point and trading point. Once the free city was established, it would fill this gap. If not, he could become a human trafficker and plunder and enslave the ordinary races. As long as he could establish a simple trading circle, the future development would be beneficial.
In any case, those lazy dragons wouldn't brave the bitter cold to come to such a place. The threat of other races to him was very limited.
Moreover, perhaps he could rely on this city to establish a connection with the Dragon Slayer Organization. If Adam's guess wasn't wrong, he might not be enemies with the organization for the time being.
Canbi was so shocked by this news that he didn't know how to respond. He stuttered, "Build, build a city? Here? What do we use to build a city? "
Adam pointed to him and the captives, as well as the frozen snow worms and said, "We use you."
