Chapter 117: Harvest

The Frost Wyvern had no dragon scales, but its dragon hide was still very tough. Dragon hide was an important material for making extraordinary leather armor, and it was even better than the Ragewind Magic Tiger hide from last time.

Heatherway had already decided to use this dragon hide to make a Wyvern Skin Robe for herself. Of course, this would require her to advance to a Senior Wizard first. The Wyvern Skin Robe needed the softest and most magic-conductive skin from these wyverns.

The wyvern meat could not be eaten directly. The meat of the wyvern was poisonous, and ordinary people would die from poisoning if they ate it. A special method was needed to neutralize the poison. After the poison was neutralized, the dragon meat tasted very good and could improve physical fitness. In fact, many Magical Beasts in this world had meat with similar effects.

Those Nobles spent their days eating, drinking, and having fun, and they did not train hard. However, most of them could still become Knights or Squires. Besides having good training, professional mentors, and excellent breathing techniques, they also ate various Magical Beast meats regularly.

Long-term consumption of Magical Beast meat made their physical fitness far exceed that of ordinary people. Combined with professional training and excellent breathing techniques, as long as they were not completely useless, it was not too difficult for them to activate life energy and become Knights after reaching adulthood. However, for ordinary people, it was very difficult.

Knight training required a large amount of meat. Ordinary people could not afford to support a Knight. Most commoners had to depend on Nobles and become their servants to access resources.

Su Lun took out a skinning knife and began to skin the wyverns. Due to the previous battle, the dragon hide on several Frost Wyverns was damaged in many places. Those damaged parts could only be discarded. Moreover, the dragon hide from the Dragon Wings was not suitable for making leather armor. These parts were better suited for making blank scrolls.

The most valuable part was the heart, an important material for making a lesser Dragon Blood Potion. As for the other internal organs, they could also be used as alchemical materials. Dragon blood could be used to make magic ink for copying scrolls. There was also the Dragon Whip, which was very popular among the human Nobles. When all these parts were added up, one wyvern could bring about forty thousand Gold Nars in profit.

Handling Frost Wyverns was quite troublesome. Su Lun spent a great deal of effort to finally finish dissecting these six Frost Wyverns. Only the skeletons of the Frost Wyverns and some worthless items remained on the ground. Su Lun’s ten-cubic-meter Storage Space was completely full, and even several of Heatherway’s space storage items were filled.

Seeing that some low-value materials had to be left behind, Su Lun felt a pang of heartache. Apart from the wyvern bodies, they found thirteen Frost Wyvern eggs in three wyvern nests. Su Lun used a piece of dragon hide to make a simple net to carry them.

The Storage Space could not hold living creatures. If these wyvern eggs were placed inside, they would quickly become non-viable. Wyvern eggs that could hatch were quite valuable, of course, only if one had a method to tame dragons. Besides the Drow Elves of the Underdark, Wizards were the best at taming dragons.

The Drow Elves of the Underdark had a simple method for taming dragons: they just needed to find a male pure-blood dragon. It could be said that the Drow Elves of the Underdark were very similar to Succubi, and also to desire demons. Su Lun planned to tame a few wyverns. Once grown, they would not only be powerful combatants but also make excellent mounts.

Besides these dragon eggs, there were also some Gold Nars and some broken items in the wyvern nests. It was unclear whether these belonged to some unfortunate soul attacked by the wyverns or left behind by enthusiastic young people who came here to become Dragon Slayers.

These items were of average value. Hoarding wealth was an innate trait of dragons, and these Lesser Dragons were no exception. In these nests, Su Lun also found some nuggets of gold, crystal agates, and some gemstones. As for acquiring immense wealth by slaying dragons, one would have to attack true dragons that had lived for hundreds of years. However, few who dared to do so ever returned alive.

There were not many of these items, so Su Lun simply made a bag out of dragon hide to carry them. After gathering all the items they could take, Su Lun prepared to leave the place with Heatherway. The process of dissecting the wyverns had left the area filled with the smell of blood. The strong scent would attract other predators. Although Su Lun was not afraid of them, it was better to avoid unnecessary fights.

Several vultures and similar creatures circled in the sky, coveting the wyvern flesh. However, because of the lingering presence of Su Lun and the wyverns, they did not dare to come down. But they would not hold back for long.

Seeing Su Lun covered in blood and dirt, Heatherway frowned with disgust. Then, she snapped her fingers, and a flash of light swept over Su Lun, cleaning off all the blood and filth from his exterior. Many zero-circle spells, though lacking in offensive power, were very practical.

After returning to a clean state, Su Lun put one arm around Heatherway’s slender waist and, holding the dragon hide bag with his other hand, leaped directly off the cliff.

The biting cold wind whistled past their ears. Heatherway shouted excitedly. Fortunately, they were not in a snowy mountain; otherwise, such loud shouts could easily trigger an avalanche. With the Fly and Featherfall Spell active, Su Lun and Heatherway flew directly from the Lotas Mountains down to the foothills.

The feeling of this high-altitude bungee jump was incredibly thrilling. After reaching the bottom, the two were in no hurry to leave. For one, it was getting late, and secondly, although they were not injured from the recent battle, they were mentally tired.

Finding a sheltered spot by a rock wall, Su Lun used Turn Stone to Mud to create a small house. They would spend the night here.

After putting down their belongings, Heatherway began to prepare food, while Su Lun opened the system list to check his gains.

From this mission, he obtained two Golden Treasure Chests. Su Lun directly opened both chests. Two consecutive flashes of light appeared, and the system’s cold prompt sounded in his ears.

“Congratulations, host. You obtained the skill Floating Thunder Array.”

“Congratulations, host. You obtained the item Reinforcement Token!”

[Floating Thunder Array: After use, summons eight thunderballs around the user. The thunderballs can move according to the host’s commands and deal 2-5 points of lightning damage to nearby enemies, with a chance to paralyze them.]

[Reinforcement Token: A special Magic Item generated after the system skill (Lay Ambush Series) integrated with this world’s rules. Upon use, it can summon a squad of Soldiers. It can be used both in and out of combat. Uses: 1/1.]

Su Lun spent one Skill Point to learn the Floating Thunder skill, and the lightning energy within his body became more active.

“Ding, detected that the host possesses Thunder Lightning Spear, Floating Thunder Array, partial information on Lightning Domain, and partial information on Lightning Control. Can integrate and advance. Confirm integration and advancement?”

As soon as he learned the Floating Thunder Array, the system’s prompt sounded in his mind. Su Lun was overjoyed to hear it. After confirming with the system, he directly agreed to integrate.
