Space rippled with intense fluctuations.
In an instant, a portal to another dimension opened in front of Garon.
Garon used his spatial teleportation magic and stepped into the portal, heading alone to the rendezvous point mentioned by Nehemiah.
As he passed through the portal, Garon's perspective shifted.
He arrived at a coastal area in the south.
The night sky of the far northern ice plains disappeared.
In the southern seas, it was noon, with an endless ball of fire hanging high in the sky, casting golden sunlight and giving the nearby azure sea a faint golden sheen.
Breezes blew over the sea, creating ripples on the surface.
The glittering seascape was refreshing and pleasant.
However, the situation here was not as serene.
Near the shore, a vast area was densely populated with various creatures. Low roars and heavy breathing echoed incessantly in the sky above.
Garon looked down calmly at the creatures that had gathered.
Creatures resembling wild boars but several times larger in size, thorn beasts.
Creatures resembling dinosaurs with sharp giant claws, claw beasts.
Creatures with huge wings, like a mix of a lion and an eagle, giant griffins.
Upright-standing bears with fur like steel needles, burly berserk bears.
Two-legged dragons with dragon wings, resembling dragons in appearance.
Besides these fierce magical creatures and large beasts, there were intelligent species like orcs, trolls, centaurs, lizard warriors, tide merpeople, and even some humans. These species restrained themselves, staying within their designated areas around the seas, maintaining a certain distance from each other.
Garon gazed into the distance.
His eyes swept towards areas away from the sea.
In a series of dull, rumbling noises, the ground trembled constantly, and fine dust rose and fell.
Garon could clearly see more creatures of various species approaching from all directions. Occasionally, creatures from different factions collided, but after a few cautious glances, they parted ways, as if by mutual understanding.
Among these continually arriving creatures at the southern sea area, most carried a strong dragon aura.
These were all vassals of the true dragons.
Apart from the vassals, many dragons of different species had gathered. Legendary dragons over thirty meters long, and young dragons just a few meters long, but the most numerous were the adult dragons between ten and twenty meters.
The intertwining dragon aura nearly solidified the air here.
"To establish a world for the dragons on Planet Kala, nine out of ten true dragons who hear of this will not miss it," Garon thought to himself.
Not all the dragons of the Noah Continent would leave, but most would choose to go to Planet Kala.
But going there didn't mean abandoning the Noah Continent. Many legendary dragons knew cross-dimensional teleportation, and even among the non-legendary large dragons, a considerable number could learn this skill if they wished.
Meanwhile, Garon's arrival attracted much attention.
Due to his silver scales, many inexperienced dragons mistook him for a silver dragon from Metal Dragon Island.
The number of dragons here was already large, and the arrival of a new dragon would not usually draw much attention. However, Garon's exceptionally large size made him the center of attention the moment he appeared. Many eyes turned towards him.
Some dragons who had fought alongside Garon recognized him.
But to most dragons seeing Garon for the first time, his size suggested he was an ancient dragon. Garon was not just over forty meters in size; he was nearly fifty meters long.
Most adult dragons were not even twenty meters in size.
To other dragons, Garon's size was indeed that of an ancient dragon.
Even among enemy dragon species, there was respect for ancient dragons. Thus, Garon saw many respectful gazes, and dragons making eye contact would quickly lower their heads as a sign of respect.
Garon paid no mind to the other dragons' gazes.
He was accustomed to such attention.
Garon surveyed his surroundings and located an unoccupied sandy area to the northeast.
Then, the silver dragon moved, disappearing from his spot in an instant and reappearing above the area swept by the waves.
As the ruler of the entire northern ice plain, Garon had far more vassals than other dragons.
However, the coastal region had enough land to accommodate Garon's vassals.
Next, Garon transmitted the spatial coordinates of this place to his vassals still on the northern ice plains.
A moment later.
Whoosh!
As if a gust of wind blew by, ripples appeared on the surface of space.
Several nearby true dragons focused their gaze.
Under the watchful eyes of these true dragons, several hundred-meter-long magical ships emerged slowly from the intense ripples in space, hovering in the area above Garon.
"Magic ships?"
In the commotion caused by the appearance of the magic ships, some chromatic dragons showed greedy eyes, coveting the ships.
Magic ships were desirable treasures for any dragon to add to their hoard.
However, upon seeing the supermassive silver dragon, those dragons with designs on the ships could only sigh in disappointment and withdraw their gaze. No dragon wanted to provoke a mysterious legendary giant dragon.
As for Garon's vassals on the magic ships, suddenly being teleported to a place with so many giant dragons did not unsettle them.
They had previously witnessed the scene of several legendary dragons coming to the lava half-plane, and there were not many legends here. Moreover, with Garon as their backbone, they would not show fear under the might of other dragons.
The magic ships hovered silently in the air.
To conserve energy and with no enemies present, the ships' shields were temporarily deactivated. The vassals from the lava half-plane stood on the decks, looking at the scenery they had never seen in the lava half-plane.
The endless sea was a novel sight to them.
However, for the native creatures of the northern ice plains, this scenery was equally novel, having never left their homeland.
Time passed quietly.
More and more dragon species arrived at the southern sea area.
Garon saw a familiar ancient blue dragoness he had met before.
Additionally, there was an ancient red dragon he was seeing for the first time.
Many dragon species didn't arrive in time for the battle with the Avatars of Chaos. The event was sudden, and the process, though fluctuating, was resolved swiftly due to Garon and Una's presence.
Subsequently, the nearest metal dragons also began to appear.
As more metal dragons arrived, the atmosphere became tense due to the hostility between different dragon species. If not for the powerful legendary dragons restraining their kind, the situation could have quickly escalated into a massive dragon brawl.
Soon, a week passed.
Una had already arrived, but she felt uncomfortable around so many creatures. Therefore, she used transformation magic to shrink and hid inside one of the magic ships, treating the cabin as a dragon's lair.
On a peak near the sea, the silver giant dragon shifted his gaze towards the sea.
"The dragons of the Noah Continent have almost all gathered."
"There's still one week left."
Garon narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself.
In his field of view, under the sunset, several powerful metal dragons approached from afar.
Most were familiar to Garon.
Ancient gold dragon Lockweed, ancient silver dragon Nehemiah, and many legendary metal dragons who had fought alongside Garon.
Metal Dragon Island had several magic ships, but they did not use them, displaying them as trophies in a prominent location on the island.
Among these legendary metal dragons, Garon also saw the figure of the silver dragoness Luna.
She was accompanying Nehemiah.
Luna's size had grown since Garon first met her, but not significantly. She was now barely twenty-four meters from head to tail, widening the gap between her and Garon.
When Garon spotted Nehemiah and Luna, they also saw him.
After all, a supermassive silver dragon was incredibly conspicuous here.
Garon's appearance and aura were also highly distinctive. From afar, Nehemiah and Luna spotted Garon.
A few minutes later, these powerful metal dragons reached the gathering place.
Among the dragons of the Noah Continent, the metal dragons were the strongest. The number of legendary metal dragons was almost equal to the combined number of legends of other dragon species. And now, there was an unparalleled ancient silver dragon.
Under the watchful eyes of many true dragons, Lockweed, the Gold Dragon King, hovered in the high sky.
He spread his vast wings, his golden scales shimmering.
The dragon beard hanging from his chin moved on its own, emanating a unique majesty belonging to gold dragons.
In the absence of legendary dragon species, gold dragons held the highest status among dragons, partly due to their own strength and the favor of the Dragon God.
Although Nehemiah had become an ancient dragon, Metal Dragon Island still revered Lockweed, an ancient gold dragon. Nehemiah himself had no issue with this. Metal dragons were traditionally united, and he shared a teacher-student and friendly relationship with Lockweed.
"Fellow dragon kin,"
"You should all know why you are here."
The mission to establish a dragon realm on Planet Kala was led by the Metal Dragon God. Therefore, metal dragons took on the responsibility of gathering dragons from the Noah Continent. During this time, metal dragons were often seen across the continent.
Other species of the Noah Continent sensed the dragons' significant movements.
After all, dragons didn't hide this matter, and the commotion of so many dragons and vassals gathering in one place was hard to ignore.
However, not many knew the specific reason for the dragons' assembly.
No power dared to come here for information now.
Even if a legendary creature caused trouble here, it would likely be torn apart by the dragons in minutes.
Meanwhile, Lockweed continued in a deep voice, "Our dragon race has always been divided internally, which is the fundamental reason we lost our dominant position in the ancient Dragonfall War."
"If dragons were united, even now, we would have the chance to relive the scene of dragons dominating everything."
His voice paused, and Lockweed added, "Of course, I know the conflicts between different dragon species are deep-rooted, and unity can't be achieved with a few words."
"But I hope that the true dragons going to Planet Kala this time can set aside their prejudices against other dragon species as much as possible."
The ancient gold dragon's gaze sharpened.
"Only then can we have the chance to rebuild the dragon kingdom that once ruled the skies and the earth on Planet Kala and restore the glory of the dragon race."
Even for the good-aligned metal dragons, the failure of the Dragonfall War was a lingering sore spot. The era when dragons dominated everything is still dearly missed by today's dragons.
True dragons pride themselves on their identity, considering themselves the most perfect creatures.
Because dragons were once the sole rulers of the multiverse.
No other species has ever achieved this.
Giants?
Despite their deep hatred for dragons, if giants waged war against dragons again without the aid of other species and divine systems, true dragons would crush and extinguish giants with overwhelming force.
They are not truly worthy of being dragons' archenemies.
After speaking, Lockweed looked around, his expression solemn and serious.
He raised his head, roaring in a deep voice.
"For the dragon race!"
Instantly, due to the infectious voice of the gold dragon, roaring like thunder erupted continuously, piercing the clouds and sky, even stirring the nearby sea into several-meter-high waves.
Garon, however, was unaffected by this atmosphere.
He knew it was temporary.
In reality, given the nature of dragons, despite Lockweed's words temporarily restraining hostility towards other species, the conflicts and discord among dragons would resurface after some time.
If the internal conflicts of the dragons were so easily resolved, it wouldn't have been such a headache even for the Dragon God.
Even among the Dragon Gods, there are irreconcilable disputes.
From top to bottom.
Dragons have never been united.
This time, due to the original Sun God's desecration of dragon corpses, the Dragon Gods united for a rare joint action.
As time passed, the agitated atmosphere gradually cooled down.
Lockweed's words had some effect. The true dragons gathered here temporarily put aside their intense hostility, suppressing their nature and trying to coexist peacefully.
"Garon, are these all your vassals?"
Transformed into a human form, Luna sat on a round rock, her straight legs gently swinging.
She looked up at the sky, seeing Garon's magic ships and the vassals inside.
Luna knew Garon had many vassals. The ones here were just a small part, and few were from the northern ice plains, mostly fire-attribute creatures from the lava half-plane.
Garon smiled and replied, "Some more vassals are setting up a teleportation array. They'll arrive soon."
Luna nodded, then turned her head, looking up at the majestic silver dragon's body.
"Our gap is growing."
"The first time I met you, you had just become a large dragon."
After looking at Garon's size for a few moments, Luna sighed and looked away.
"Are you going to Planet Kala with Elder Nehemiah, or will you act alone?"
Garon noticed that Luna had no vassals and inquired.
Without enough dragons, it would be hard to control a wide territory on Planet Kala after clearing the aberrant creatures.
"I don't plan to establish a territory on Planet Kala. I'm just going to help Grandpa Nehemiah with some small tasks."
Luna stroked her golden hair, smiling lightly. "I don't have grand ambitions. I'm happy staying on the Noah Continent."
Garon nodded.
"What did you do with those two human children?"
Looking at the sea reflecting the brilliant starry night sky, Garon casually asked.
"I took them to Metal Dragon Island."
"I plan to let them stay there until they're adults."
"Metal Dragon Island is safer, and it's not unwelcoming to children without support."
With so many metal dragons on Metal Dragon Island, Amos and Lilith now had significant support. Metal dragons are quite sentimental and easily form friendships.
After chatting for a while, Luna looked worried and asked Garon, "Have you heard from Nicole Nina?"
She was quite close to Nicole Nina, the crystal dragon, and had been concerned about her sudden disappearance.
Garon shook his head, "No."
Luna sighed, "I hope Nicole Nina is okay. Maybe she's just traveling to other planar worlds."
"She's a smart dragon. She shouldn't get into trouble easily."
Garon replied.
Whoosh!
A wind carrying a unique sea scent blew.
At the same time.
Elemental energy converged crazily, forming magical runes out of thin air on the ground, outlining a giant magical array.
Under the concerted efforts of all casters under Garon's command.
After about a week, the large-scale spatial teleportation spell in the northern ice plains was completed.
Under the inquisitive eyes of many true dragons, ice plain creatures with a chill aura emerged in the glowing magic, teleporting from the array to this region.
Garon had many vassals.
His entourage was nearly tens of times that of other dragons.
His vassals emerged continuously from the teleportation array, seemingly endless.
Only when the last vassal appeared did the array's light gradually fade, and their numerous figures made the space here seem crowded.
The creatures from the northern ice plains looked at Garon with awe, then constrained their powers, quietly awaiting Garon's next command. With so many powerful beings here, Garon's vassals dared not act rashly without his orders.
Time passed quickly.
After the true dragons gathered their vassal clans along the coast, a few more days passed. Then came a moment when the night sky had just faded, dawn broke, and the sun emerged on the horizon.
At this moment, a divine and vast will of the Dragon God descended.
