Caesar looked at the words at the bottom of the trophy and nodded lightly.
As he grew older, there were more differences between him and the True Dragon. One of the most important differences was the magic resistance that came with the dragon-type elemental bloodline. As usual, Caesar did not inherit it.
This weakness made it difficult for him to face spellcasters.
But now, he could finally relax a little. Although he didn't know how strong the so-called "Black Jade-level Spell Resistance" was, at least he didn't have to be so worried about the spellcaster like before.
As for the "implant device" in the other trophy, Caesar guessed that it was probably an auxiliary tool similar to some anime in his previous world. It could determine the level of a creature through scanning and provide assistance.
Although this reward could not increase the Black Dragon's strength, its function could not be underestimated. Especially when Caesar did not understand Airadia and the world system, this thing might be of great use.
Now that he understood the reward, Caesar wanted to leave the Black Dream. But before he could think of how to leave, he felt his vision blur and his consciousness instantly left the dark space and returned to reality.
As far as his eyes could see, the birds, beasts, ants, and insects were moving in slow motion like a bullet, quickly returning to normal. Caesar was still holding the Forest Demoness Luna, but the abrupt space-time shift in his consciousness made him slightly sluggish.
Then, he noticed that his vision in his right eye was temporarily blurry.
If someone were to carefully observe Caesar's right eye, they would notice that the lens of the Black Dragon's right eye was slightly distorted. The dark yellow pupil expanded outwards and an undetectable black dot quickly appeared in the center.
Of course, the Black Dragon was unaware of these changes. He only felt that his vision in his right eye was blurry for a while before it immediately returned to normal.
Then, a transparent frame faintly appeared in front of his eyes.
Caesar knew that the reward was probably in effect, so he stopped moving forward and focused his attention on it.
At the bottom of his right field of vision, a translucent panel frame slowly appeared. It was a bit like the high-tech glasses used by the characters in sci-fi movies. This thing was a projection, and the image was directly in his eyes, so presumably other creatures could not see it.
It couldn't be considered high-end, but the translucent, light-colored frame gave off a futuristic and unique feeling of technology. When Caesar shifted his gaze to the only creature around him — the Forest Fairy, Little Luna's data instantly appeared in the interface.

"…"
The comical numbers caused Black Dragon to puff up his cheeks. It was only with great effort that he did not laugh out loud. Now that they were facing a great enemy and the situation was serious, it would be inappropriate to laugh out loud. However, upon seeing such a scene, Caesar's mood was somewhat joyful.
Presumably, this tool wasn't as intelligent as he had imagined. It used the first creature it scanned as its reference value …
Hmm, that should be the case …
"Digitization?"
Caesar rubbed his chin and looked at the analysis panel floating in the void below his field of vision. This kind of direct analysis of combat ability in numerical form was more intuitive.
"However, this alone isn't enough. I have to see my own value first."
Just as Caesar was thinking about this and looked away, the text on the virtual panel flashed and refreshed with a new row of values.
[Carbon-based life form]
Comprehensive combat ability verification: 240 ~ 293
'This should be my current ability value …'
When he saw this value, Caesar was a little puzzled. "A fluctuation of more than 50 points. This so-called auxiliary device can't perform an accurate verification."
Caesar thought for a moment and quickly understood. He knew that this was not a problem with the verification device, but the fact that it was so.
For example, the state of the top athletes in his previous life would also fluctuate. Affected by personal mental state, physical fitness, and many other factors, they might be able to challenge the world record when they were in peak condition. However, when they were not in peak condition, their results would be so low that it was difficult to look at them directly.
This theory was also applicable to Airadia. After all, reality was not a simple analysis and deduction. The same person's combat ability under different circumstances was completely different.
Specifically speaking, Caesar's combat ability would inevitably change to a certain extent before and after the hormone took effect. It was natural for the value to fluctuate greatly.
However, Caesar thought that it was worth noting that for the same army of a thousand people, there might not be much difference in the value of personal ability verification between a motley crew and an army of hundreds of battles. However, when it came to the concept of an army, the performance of the two forces in a war would definitely be worlds apart.
It seemed that the value analyzed by the combat ability verification tool could only be used as a reference. He could not be too superstitious. Otherwise, he would inevitably suffer in the future.
"Your Excellency Caesar."
Just as Caesar was studying the new implant device, a voice from afar suddenly pulled him back.
Black Dragon raised his head and looked. Within the narrow passage at the entrance of Tulu Basin, the old wizard Sve was leaning on his bone staff, walking towards him with a haggard expression accompanied by Gall.
"What's the matter?" Seeing the old orc's weak expression, Caesar could not be bothered to study the device.
In his memory, although Sve was very old, his body had always been very healthy and strong. He was even stronger than ordinary adult orcs. Not long ago, this old man had given Gall a good beating on Mudala.
However, the old wizard was now like a completely different person. He looked to be in a terrible state.
Just as Black Dragon was thinking, Luna left his claw and circled around the thorns behind Caesar's neck, whispering, "The wizard's mana tide has weakened by a lot."
At the same time, the verification device in Caesar's eyeball analyzed the value of Sve's ability.

"You're injured?"
Caesar had a bad feeling. As the only spellcaster in his camp, the old wizard's ability was very important.
However, seeing such a huge fluctuation in the value, Caesar knew that there was definitely something wrong with the old wizard.
Without Sve, the Stone Crow clan's combat ability would have dropped by more than a level.
The old wizard smiled and said with his unique hoarse voice, "I'm fine. I just had to cast too many spells in a hurry. Now I have to taste the pain. I'll be fine after some rest."
"Your Excellency."
Gall, who was supporting the old wizard, spoke in a low, muffled voice, "We will not tolerate the orcs who invade. We hope that you will continue to lead the war and use the wisdom of a true dragon to keep these greedy and despicable people in the wilderness forever."
Gall then cursed angrily, "May these damned bastards be captured by the demons and sent to the bottomless abyss to repent for their sins."
