Dr. Green Dragon

 “There’s something!”

 Although Claudia Mata is only an ancient green dragon, she has eight professional levels, and she works as a druid and a rogue. Therefore, she has extremely extraordinary abilities in terms of perception and alertness.

If not, it would be difficult for her to escape from Barajas' repeated hunting.

With this ability of insight, at this moment, when she was concentrating on observing the caves at the bottom of the valley, her heart suddenly jumped, and her eyes suddenly focused on a cave where black smoke was still coming out.

 There is something!

 It’s not a little thing!

Something like this appears in Baragas' lair, or near the lair...

 The first moment of alert reaction was that Claugelia Marta had doubts. Was it Baragas himself?

Without hesitation, she immediately issued a warning.

With the range effect of Isaac's "Legendary Hidden", all sounds here will not be transmitted outside, and there is no risk of alarming anyone.

Her voice made Isaac and Ivy Coglan's eyes change at the same time.

The cave is very huge. Not to mention Barajas, at least Ivico LS Gran's size, as long as it folds its wings, it should be easy to get in and out.

At the same time, although black smoke filled with the smell of sulfur is constantly rising, looking from here, the black smoke does not seem to have the high temperature of a volcano.

 As for what’s going on down there…

Isaac paid close attention for a moment, then looked at the other two, and both shook their heads.

The movement was in the depths of the cave. Although their dragons' senses were sharp, it was not possible to directly identify what kind of creature it was through the movement.

At this moment, none of them have any intention of using magic to explore.

If the person below is really Barajas, wouldn't using magic to detect it just put him on guard?

It is better to explore directly through the cover of "Legendary Hidden".

 “Let’s go down directly.”

"Even if the person below is really him, he must be in a bad state just after he wakes up from the rage."

 It was Isaac who made the decision.

After having basically given up on the plan to enslave Baracas, he hoped that the following movement was from Baracas.

 Now is the best time to deal with Barajas.

If Baragas has exited the main plane, this will be trouble!

 In this regard, Ivica LS Gran and Claude Maria Mata both nodded.

 The two-headed ogre and the kobold overseer are only subordinates.

Several people immediately flew down to the cave.

This cave is obviously frequently visited by people.

 Black smoke has been rising, and the cave walls that should have been covered in volcanic ash are smooth in most places.

 So that such a huge cave can be "wiped" until it is smooth...

With just a brief observation, Isaac and the three of them knew that this was probably where Baragas often came in and out.

Only the huge size of the original red dragon can scrape such a large area of ​​​​the cave wall when entering and exiting.

 And the smoothness of the dragon scales will rub the cave wall to a smooth level over a long period of time, which is also normal.

 This should not be a trap!

 At least, it shouldn’t be a pure trap!

If he "makes new ones" so often just to lay a trap, the effort that Barajas has put into it would be too great.

 After all, this is not something that happens in one year, two years, ten years, or a hundred years.

 Barajas has existed for more than 10,000 years!

 So, Isaac is more inclined to believe that Barajas often enters and exits from here, and even if there are traps in it, it is not just traps.

 This cave tunnel should probably be connected to his lair!

During the observation period, he was the first to fly into the cave. At this time, the sounds deep in the cave became a little clearer.

Something like...

 “Crash?”

 Issac felt something in his heart.

This sound was a bit vibrating, as if some creature was hitting the tunnel heavily, and the sound was also transmitted here along with the vibration.

 “Not like Barajas!”

It's not that Barajas won't hit the tunnel.

If he continues to lose his mind under the influence of Dragon Madness Mystery Lock, going crazy is also possible.

But if Barajas was going crazy, the intensity of this shock would be too small!

There is no doubt that Baragas has an age that surpasses almost all giant dragons. In addition, he is also a red dragon, which means that among the giant dragons, this guy may have the most powerful person above all dragons. , even terrifying forces including Protarnes!

Such a power, if you are really going crazy, it will definitely not be this intensity or this voice!

From this alone we can see that the people below are not like Barajas!

 But not in Barajas’ words…

What kind of creature would this guy allow to exist next to his lair?

Or, was there someone who broke into this place before them?

“There is something wrong, but look here.”

Claudia Mata agreed with Isaac's meaning and also believed that the person below was not Baragas. However, she pointed to some marks on the cave wall.

 It’s the seal of the dragon’s claw!

 What’s more, it’s so huge!

Just looking at this claw mark, there is no doubt that it is Baragas. It is much larger than the dragon claws of Ivy's true form!

From this claw mark, there is no doubt that Barajas is here.

　　However, what Claudia Mata was referring to at this time was not just his paw prints.

Just beside his huge paw prints, there are several smaller ones, which are also the paw prints of the dragon's claws!

 Isaac could tell that these paw prints should belong to the same dragon.

and…

 “It’s a dragon’s claw.”

“Looking at the shape, they should belong to the same dragon.”

 “Look at the time, this one has a certain span...”

 Claudia Mata’s voice continued.

 There is a span of time, which means...

 This giant dragon should have been near the lair of Barajas for several years!

 And to get Barajas to allow him to exist here...

"I guess this is a giant dragon enslaved by Baragas."

“Judging from the size of the paw prints, this giant dragon must not have reached adulthood yet!”

“The movement down there was probably caused by him.”

“It is normal for him to be unable to resist the influence of Dragon Madness.”

 These speculations of Claudia Marta.

 Issac and Ivica Gran both nodded in agreement.

Although I was a little surprised that Baragas didn't eat the underage dragon immediately.

However, the lair of Barajas does need guards.

 Slave an underage dragon and force it to guard the lair.

 In the future, when this giant dragon reaches adulthood, there is a very small chance that it may have an impact on him. It is perfectly normal to come back to deal with him and eat him!

“In that case, let’s go straight down and see who this person is?”
