The road ahead was long. Why did it feel so long today?
The giant bear slowed down, the pain of the dragon flames causing its mind to fall into chaos. Its roars were already inaudible.
In the end, it lay powerlessly on the mountain rocks, breathing out faster than it inhaled. It gazed at the surging river not far away and unwillingly closed its eyes.
"Haha, Black Treasure, good job!" Zhang Xing gave it a thumbs up.
"It's just a bit bigger and stronger. It doesn't have much skill!" the little black dragon said disdainfully as it circled in the air.
"Come, let's go enjoy a feast!" With a thought from Zhang Xing, the giant bear and the little black dragon entered Divine Dragon Island.
After another round of processing, seasoning, salt, and roasting of the bear meat, they began to gorge themselves.
During this process, the little black dragon's saliva kept dripping, its eyes following Zhang Xing's every movement.
After the roasting, the little black dragon's table manners were indescribable. Zhang Xing could only say that it was too damn cute!
This unexpected harvest not only helped the wood villagers resolve the dangers of hunting in the mountains in the future, the little black dragon had also … leveled up!
However, the bear's brain didn't produce a magic crystal. Zhang Xing didn't know the reason for this, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
They each received 80 experience points. The little black dragon had reached the third rank. Current experience points: 39500.
Zhang Xing's experience points as an advanced warrior was 112500, and an intermediate mage was 80100.
The little black dragon's height was already around 1.56 meters. After transforming, it should be able to reach three meters.
However, it still had the temperament of a child. It would probably be after five years of age before it could become like a big child.
And after this advancement, the little black dragon's dragon breath magic talent was no longer primarily fire. Instead, it had turned into an even more powerful acid.
For low-level magic beasts like the magic wolves, even their fur would be completely corroded by a mouthful of acid.
The magic bear ran as far as it could. It absolutely didn't dare to roar at the little black dragon.
Zhang Xing returned to the village and told the village chief that they could go hunting in the mountains. He also inquired about the location of the Holy Roland Academy of Magic and Force.
A day later, the entire wood village gathered at the village entrance to send Zhang Xing off.
"Zhang Xing, when you become a famous magician on the continent, don't forget these villagers!"
"If you're not happy outside, come back to the wood village!"
"Little Zhang Xing, remember what you said. You have to build a bigger orchard for me!"
"Zhang Xing, take care and pay attention to your safety …"
"Rest assured, uncles, aunts, grandpas and grandmas, I, Zhang Xing will never forget you …"
The villagers reluctantly waved their hands. Zhang Xing looked back three times with every step. He was also somewhat reluctant, but when he thought of his goal of settling down and his grandfather's last wish, his gaze became firm. He resolutely turned back and strode forward.
Looking at the gradually disappearing figure of Zhang Xing, the villagers still stood in the distance and watched him until his figure completely disappeared. They didn't disperse for a long time.
At the back of the crowd, Old Li's heart was very uncomfortable. He didn't have any children. These days with Zhang Xing, he felt a special kind of happiness.
Turning around, his hands habitually reached into his bosom. He felt more than a dozen hard things. When he took them out to take a look, he was stunned.
"It's gold coins, twelve gold coins!"
Who else could silently put gold coins into his bosom except for Zhang Xing?
Old Li's eyes instantly moistened!
Those villagers who had helped Zhang Xing also had a few more gold coins in their bosom …
