Chapter 1013: Dales’ Advice
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Just as w.a.n.g Yu was impressed over the reward Holy Dragon Emperor gave him, he suddenly realised and said, “Wait, no… I don’t want this, I want to look for Dales!”
“Hehe!” However, Holy Dragon Emperor chuckled and said, “Isn’t he right in front of you?”
“You… You are Dales?” Hearing what the Holy Dragon Emperor said, w.a.n.g Yu was shocked.
“If not? The Dragon Race is different from you humans. We respect the strongest. Do you think that dragon’s ability can surpa.s.s mine?”
“Erm…” w.a.n.g Yu was instantly speechless after hearing what he said.
Indeed, for big, strong races like the Dragon Race, they had to ensure they used the strongest genes for the next generation. If Dales was stronger than the Holy Dragon Emperor, the Dragon Race would not acknowledge him.
“But…” At this thought, w.a.n.g Yu pointed at the Holy Dragon Emperor and said, “Didn’t you say that Dales isn’t on Dragon Island?”
w.a.n.g Yu knew that AIs could not lie or else it would be against international law and would also bring the game down… Just now, Holy Dragon Emperor did say that Dales was not on Dragon Island but now, he was in the Dragon Emperor’s lair. How was this not a lie?
“Yes, I was not on Dragon Island—this is my palace. Did anyone say that the Dragon Emperor’s palace has to be on Dragon Island?” Holy Dragon Emperor asked with a wide smile.
“F*ck!!!”
w.a.n.g Yu was speechless… The system designer’s thoughts could never be guessed based on logic as they might trick you anytime.
Only now did the Holy Dragon Emperor, or Dales as we called him, began rapidly shrinking his body from a dozen storey tall to around the same size as w.a.n.g Yu, ending up looking like a macho man. On top of his head was a t.i.tle, Dales the Dragon Martial G.o.d.
After Dales transformed into a human, he was around two metres tall, was clad in a s.h.i.+ning gold armour and had a chiseled jaw, looking very firm as his eyes looked sharp and powerful while every movement he made had a mighty aura.
So far, w.a.n.g Yu had only seen such charisma on Zeus.
Other than these, what attracted w.a.n.g Yu’s eyeb.a.l.l.s the most was the arm armours Dales had on his two arms. The golden arm armours were connected to the armour, with stretchable sharp blades at the joints. At the fists area, there were two huge dragon heads which would protect the fists once they were clenched. It looked very capable of both attacking and defending.
As a man, especially a martial artist, his pa.s.sion for weapons were uncomparable to normal people. w.a.n.g Yu’s line of sight was instantly attracted to Dales’ golden arm armours.
It was as though Dales noticed w.a.n.g Yu’s eyes as he smiled before hiding his armour then said with a laugh, “Haha, my friend, your greeting gift is pretty good. I shall accept it.”
“So long as you, my Dragon Emperor, likes it!” w.a.n.g Yu nodded speechlessly. d.a.m.n, this was what you forced me to rob.
Hearing what w.a.n.g Yu said, Dales added, “Since you are the descendant of that Martial G.o.d, and we can hit it off so well, let’s do without the formalities. Just call me your uncle.”
“Uncle?” w.a.n.g Yu was puzzled as to why did this term ‘uncle’ seem so odd in a western fantasy game.
“Why, based on what you said, aren’t I your uncle? Unless you think I don’t deserve it?” Dales started lamenting.
“Of course not. Greetings, my uncle!” w.a.n.g Yu quickly said.
What a joke, this was the Holy Dragon Emperor, the head of one of the three factions, someone strong enough to take on the G.o.d of Light. Calling him uncle was definitely not an insult.
“Good boy!” Holy Dragon Emperor laughed then casually threw a necklace and said, “Based on your world’s rules, since you gave me such a big greeting gift for our first meeting, as your uncle, I will have to reciprocate. Take this little token.”
w.a.n.g Yu took a look at the necklace and his eyeb.a.l.l.s almost fell out.

What was generosity? What was magnanimous? Holy Dragon Emperor was the best example. Necklaces and rings were the rarest equipment to be dropped. Even silver-grade ones could be sold at gold-grade prices. However, the Holy Dragon Emperor just casually gave him a gold-grade necklace.
Of course, with w.a.n.g Yu’s abilities, he was not short of gold equipment but this necklace had great attributes so even w.a.n.g Yu was in awe.
Without considering how strong the Dragon Words magic was or how ridiculous the complete revival was, just one, any one of its attributes were highly desired by short distance jobs.
It was known that short distance jobs used stabbing so they wanted the sudden strike effect… Think about it, if they had the same attributes and attack abilities, and yet, while one’s attack caused two thousand HP damage while the other caused five thousand HP damage, how good would it feel?
Dales seemed unhappy to have given out such an amazing equipment for nothing so he waved and told w.a.n.g Yu, “See, the system has regulations that I cannot give out gold and above equipment for nothing… Take this for now and don’t see me as a stingy fellow.”
Look at him, although he looked like a wealthy man, the way he did things, made people feel at ease. The other intelligent NPCs might feel embarra.s.sed when compared to him.
System NPCs were known to be money-minded creatures. w.a.n.g Yu was not a greedy person so since he got a rare equipment for nothing, he did not feel deserving. Upon hearing what Dales said, he quickly replied, “I am very contented with this necklace.”
“Haha, what an easily contented lad.” Dales laughed, then went straight to the topic, “Dear nephew, you are here just in time.”
“What do you mean?” A question mark appeared on top of his head after hearing him.
“Erm…” Dales quickly added, “I heard you have won one hundred battles.”
“Yup,” w.a.n.g Yu responded.
“Heng, heng!” Dales said, “Battles in the arena are just for you to familiarise yourself with the battle styles of the various jobs but real battles are definitely no easy feat. You only need one word to enlighten the martial artist genes in your body!”
“Which word?” w.a.n.g Yu asked curiously?
Dales warmed up his mouth and spoke, “Battle!”
