Chapter 439: Chapter 422: Choice

The dragons were proud.

However, dragons were not incapable of signing contracts with mortal creatures.

Such contracts were partnership contracts.

The partnership contract of a dragon was a very unique agreent, lasting for five hundred years, granting the contracted party a certain degree of dragon lineage power while also accelerating the dragon’s own growth rate.

The drawback was that during the partnership contract period, the dragon’s lifespan would be consud at double the rate.

Generally speaking, dragon partnership contracts were mostly seen from a dragon’s juvenile to adolescent period, ending by adulthood.

A dragon’s juvenile and adolescent periods combined lasted nearly one hundred and fifty years.

But if a partnership contract was signed, this duration decreased significantly.

The reduction was related to the growth speed and talent of the contracted party, said to increase by more than tenfold at its fastest.

Historically, so dragons chose gifted humans to sign contracts with until those humans died.

Humans had very short lifespans.

Without becoming a demigod, even a legendary one could only live up to three hundred years at most.

Dragons needed only to invest an extra hundred years, at most three hundred years of lifespan, to compress a millennium of growth into a century.

For so dragons wishing to quickly beco stronger, this was very appealing.

From the World Tree’s inheritance, Eve quickly understood the intent of the Platinum Dragon King.

*This guy… no wonder he’s an old dragon god that’s lived for millions of years!*

*His proposal was likely not just to show goodwill to Eve and provide assistance, but to use Eve’s players to enable these pure-blooded dragons to grow rapidly!*

*Perhaps normally, dragons could slow their growth.*

*But with Segis World’s magic power increasing, balance would be disrupted, and the whole world would plunge into chaos unseen for a thousand years.*

*At this ti… strength becos crucial.*

*Without sufficient strength, these pure-blooded dragons would have difficulty protecting themselves, easily captured by powerful beings to be used as slaves or food.*

*Dragons raised their offspring in a free-range manner.*

*Once young dragons learned to fly and hunt, their mothers would drive them from the nest.*

*Dragons like Reinhardt, who enjoyed raising kids, were rare.*

*In other words, Reinhardt intended to use the Chosen Ones to help raise the dragon children.*

*And Eve could entirely conclude that Reinhardt had indeed seen the potential in the players.*

*After all, they were all designed by Eve based on the Primordial Elf, each with talent at the genius level.*

*And the abilities of the war priests also allowed players to advance quickly, offering even greater benefits to the growth of dragon partners.*

*The Platinum Dragon King’s proposal hit two birds with one stone.*

Eve sighed gently.

To accept?

Of course, accept!

To gain Eve’s agreent, the Dragon God even promised not to interfere with these young dragons’ beliefs!

In other words, Eve could easily persuade them to beco her believers!

*Eve could understand this.*

*Dragons didn’t really value faith anyway.*

*For them, faith was sothing free—they might as well believe a little.*

*The Dragon God felt the sa way.*

*Most of them didn’t care much about followers, only shiny treasures.*

*Of course, for many True Gods, the captured dragons generally t a miserable end.*

*Well… mainly a miserable position.*

*Being treated as pets or used as gatekeepers.*

*But the reason Reinhardt dared to make this promise was likely due to seeing the free Black Dragon Mairrel.*

Eve lifted her head, looking at the Platinum Dragon King.

The opposite party smiled at her, then beca solemn and earnest:

“For the continuation of the dragon species, it is all worth it.”

*To continue the species?*

After hearing his words, Eve slightly sighed in her heart.

After Reinhardt finished speaking, he looked at Eve again, his eyes bright:

“Moreover, I trust your character, under the guidance of the Goddess of Life.”

Eve: …

She lifted her head, gazing into the Platinum Dragon King’s eyes.

In those amber pupils were genuine sincerity and friendliness.

After a mont of silence, Eve gently smiled:

“Then… I wish us a pleasant cooperation.”

Seeing Eve agree, Reinhardt’s smile grew even more brilliant…

After the discussion, the two True Gods soon formally signed the True God Oath.

Reinhardt returned the fragnt of the Life Scepter to Eve, and Eve agreed to his conditions.

However, Eve also expressed that she could not guarantee that none of the young dragons partnered with the Chosen Ones wouldn’t et an untily demise.

In response, the Platinum Dragon King expressed understanding:

“Of course, for every dragon, growth cos with risks, especially those wishing to beco truly powerful!”

His tone was filled with pride.

The Dragon Clan forever respected strength and valued greatness, remaining a proud race.

Growth often ca with a price.

The Platinum Dragon King then chose to leave after the oath.

However, before leaving, he smiled at Eve once more, then solemnly reminded her:

“Eve of the Crown…”

“Since you’ve ascended as a god, and your na resounds across the continent, the gods of the Pantheon might soon send emissaries inviting you to leave your mark there.”

“For the gods, the Pantheon is indeed an excellent platform capable of uniting mythical powers. Almost all True Gods have a seat there, including .”

“But for certain reasons, the Heavenly Realm gods currently leading the Pantheon hold deep suspicions toward your clansn, the Elf Clan, and the source of your divinity…”

“So, I hope you’re prepared for being targeted.”

Upon hearing the Platinum Dragon King’s warning, Eve’s expression grew serious.

She slightly bowed to Reinhardt, saying:

“I understand. Thank you for your reminder.”

Reinhardt nodded lightly:

“Then, in half a month, I will send dragon envoys to deliver the first batch of purified bloodline dragon breeds.”

With that, he nodded slightly once again.

Then, the Platinum Dragon King Reinhardt transford into a silver light and disappeared from Eve’s sight.

anwhile, Eve put away the still-glowing fragnt of the Life Scepter, her figure gradually fading and eventually blending into the world.

…

At the edge of the Elf Forest.

Silver light flickered, and a tall figure appeared.

With beautiful silver hair and rcury-colored eyes.

It was none other than the Platinum Dragon King Reinhardt, in human form.

He looked back, gazing deeply at the Elf Forest, and sighed softly:

“The wheels of history have begun to turn again, and all myths must make a choice.”

“In struggling destruction or destruction-born rebirth, there’s only one outco…”

“I have done all I can.”

With a deep sigh, light shimred from him once more, and then his form completely vanished.
