Chapter 143: Chapter 142 Tributary River Mouth

Chapter 143 -142 Tributary River Mouth

The story of the Frost Titan failed to move Russell; after watching the stars, he took Lola back to rest, wanting to fall asleep early.

Then he went dream hunting with the Little Dream Dragon in the Gloomy Dreamland.

“Ga!”

“Let’s go, Snowfield!”

A man and dragon, a butterfly, and a flower chose a direction and immediately headed steadfastly toward the distance, hoping to find a group of Snow Ghosts within the time they could endure in the Gloomy Dreamland to have a feast.

“Ice Cream, put your back into flying; your speed has increased a lot from before,” Russell waved his hand, “You used to fly at about fifteen kilometers an hour, now at least twenty-five kilometers an hour! Let’s aim for a hundred kilometers!”

Russell didn’t know how long Gloomy Dreamland would last, as there were no timing tools there.

But he could roughly sense that the duration was about five hours, basically consistent with the flow of time in the outside world. Of course, sometimes it would be longer, sometimes shorter, mainly depending on the state of the Little Dream Dragon.

“Ga ga ga!” The Little Dream Dragon strived to fly.

In a flash, they had flown for a long time, feeling like at least two hours, flying over fifty kilometers, but they hadn’t encountered a single Snow Ghost.

“This… when we cleared the trade route last time, we must have cleaned it up too thoroughly!” Russell was speechless.

However, before Russell finished complaining, a bluish-green light blossomed ahead, and a group of Snow Ghosts was wandering in the snow night.

“Awesome!”

“But this also shows that last time, the clearing of the trade route wasn’t very thorough,” Russell joked as he followed the Little Dream Dragon as it energetically pushed forward in flight.

After reaching the group of Snow Ghosts, the Little Dream Dragon began to inhale deeply without needing any signal from Russell.

With each breath, an unlucky Snow Ghost disappears, its cyan light merging into a vortex and condensing into Ice Pellet Pearls before falling into the Little Dream Dragon’s mouth.

Ga crunch, ga crunch.

The Little Dream Dragon chomped away happily; in just a short moment, it had completely drained the group of Snow Ghosts, totaling ten.

“Let’s go, next meal!” Russell waved his little hand and continued to search ahead.

As expected, a few minutes later, another group of Snow Ghosts was found, including a large Snow Ghost. However, whether it was a regular or a large one, they were all just a breath away for the Little Dream Dragon, without any difficulty in consumption.

That night, they found three batches of Snow Ghosts: twenty-nine regular ones and two large ones.

“Had your fill?”

“Ga!”

“Then good night, no, good morning, which is also not right…” Before Russell could figure out whether to say good morning, good afternoon, or good night, his consciousness swiftly dimmed.

The next day, the group passed several Cold Spring Points and finally rested at the fourth one.

In the evening, Russell still took the Little Dream Dragon flying over the boundless Snowfield, trying to find Snow Ghosts for nourishment as much as possible.

However, the results were not as good as one would wish; they found only one group of Snow Ghosts the entire night, with just seven regular ones.

Then, on the third night, they camped at the Cold Spring Point again.

“Alright, tonight’s the last meal; after it, we’ll head to Tributary River Mouth,” Russell didn’t have high expectations for that night’s harvest. It would be good enough to casually suck up a few Ice Pellet Pearls to satisfy the Little Dream Dragon’s craving.

But surprises always come unexpectedly.

A group of Snow Ghosts surrounding a five-meter-tall Snow Demon shone with deep blue light in the darkness ahead.

“Blue skin!”

Russell exclaimed, “Woo-hoo, take off! Let’s go, Ice Cream!”

“Ga!” The Little Dream Dragon didn’t need any reminding from Russell; its eyes gleamed, and saliva incessantly drooled from its mouth.

Upon getting closer, the Little Dream Dragon aimed to inhale the Ice Soul Pearl from the Snow Demon first.

With a palm, Russell cut her off, “No, start with the appetizer and wait until it’s finished before digging into the main course!”

He knew that once the Little Dream Dragon devoured the Ice Soul Pearl, it would have to slumber for several days.

So, before eating the Ice Soul Pearl, it had to first fill its stomach with the Ice Pellet Pearl so the remaining Ice Pellet Pearls wouldn’t go to waste after eating the Ice Soul Pearl.

“Gah?”

“Just listen to me, start eating from this side.”

“Gah!”

The Little Dream Dragon did as told, suppressing its craving for the Ice Soul Pearl, and began to drain the Snow Ghosts encircling the Snow Demon one by one.

The Snow Demon realized what was happening and, in anger, swung its large club trying to find the enemy preying on its minions. However, hidden within the Gloomy Dreamland’s split forms, Russell and the Little Dream Dragon remained undetected by the Snow Demon, which could only rage impotently.

As its minions disappeared one after another, it soon became a lone figure.

“There’s still time to search the area… never mind, if we lose the Snow Demon’s coordinates, that would be a big loss.” Russell decisively abandoned his greed and patted the Little Dream Dragon’s head, “Time for the main course, suck it up!”

“Gah!”

The Little Dream Dragon flew in front of the Snow Demon, and facing the bewildered creature, it opened its mouth wide and took a deep breath.

In an instant, a deep blue light swirled into a vortex, pulling all of the Snow Demon’s power toward the center.

“Just one vortex, which means there’s only one Ice Soul Pearl, huh? Tsk, you look so big and burly, with a fat head and big ears, how can you be so stingy?” Russell complained a little before enjoying the struggle between the Little Dream Dragon and the Snow Demon.

The Snow Demon roared in madness, twisting its body and swinging its club wildly, but in the end, it couldn’t withstand the Little Dream Dragon’s devouring power.

All of its strength was gathered into the vortex, turning into a deep blue Ice Soul Pearl.

Then the Little Dream Dragon gulped it down, chewing it like a bone before swallowing it. After finishing its meal, it licked its lips, signaling the end of the feast.

The surroundings fell into the quiet of death once more, lit up by only the faint glow of the Sword Butterflies and Thorns, illuminating a radius of three meters.

“Ah gah…” The Little Dream Dragon yawned, feeling sleepy after satisfying its hunger and thirst.

“Then goodbye for now, see you in a few days!”

…

A new day dawned, and sunlight streamed down from the courtyard into Cold Spring Point. The party from Fluorescent Castle had already set off on their journey.

Russell was riding his majestic black warhorse, galloping along with the group.

In just two to three hours, they could see the snow line disappearing in the distance, replaced by a series of black ridges.

They had arrived at the Tributary River Mouth territory.

One was the Clearwater River, with waters clear all year round, and the other was the Turbid River, muddy with sediment in the warm season. These two rivers joined together and flowed into the Da Wan River, forming a river mouth with three branches, creating fertile land.

Russell had visited the Tributary River Mouth a few times before, but his memory of the land had faded.

He only remembered that the Rainflower Family’s Bluebird Castle stood on the only hill of the Estuary Plains, which overlooked the whole plain, both the clear and muddy rivers, and the vast, limitless expanse of the Da Wan River.

“33,000 square kilometers, nearly fifty million acres, it’s twelve or thirteen times the size of Glowing Valley… it’s almost as big as Hainan Island, isn’t it?”

Russell admired the approaching black ridges, awestruck.

He remembered that the area of Hainan Island was only about thirty-four thousand square kilometers, the smallest province in his homeland (excluding municipalities and special administrative regions). Therefore, the territory of the Tributary River Mouth, which was part of an earldom, could practically be regarded as a province.

Count Merlin Rain-Longflower was the lord of this land.

“We have left the ice wall, let the carriages speed up!” Baron Roman, riding his Nightmare Specter Horse, commanded loudly from the front of the group, “If we move swiftly, we should be able to reach Bluebird Castle before dark!”

Lady Meryl lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked towards the rolling hills with a joyful smile.
