Epic Transformation: The Dragon Master Who Defies the Divine

Chapter 14: Little Lizard

[Congratulations, you have obtained Diamond Treasure Chest x2!]

[Congratulations, you have obtained Legendary Treasure Chest x1!]

[All rewards have been sent to the system warehouse. Please check them yourself!]

...

The system was quick in distributing rewards. The moment the five men died, the rewards were immediately delivered, much better than those unscrupulous bosses who delay wages.

"Qin Fan, thank you..."

Just as Qin Fan was about to open his space warehouse to check the rewards, a clear and pleasant voice sounded beside him.

Almost forgot... there was also a girl, Su Rou.

"You're welcome. It's what classmates should do to help each other," Qin Fan said perfunctorily.

The main issue was that he wasn't familiar with Su Rou. In their class, Su Rou was a high and mighty rich beauty. From elementary school to high school, she had always lived under the spotlight. To exaggerate a bit, she could get anything she wanted because her family was wealthy. Naturally, she never lacked cultivation resources and leveled up quickly, completing her job transition ceremony in her first year of high school. Now, she was already at level 15. However, she had become a priest, a support class that struggles to solo dungeons and lacks both area-of-effect and single-target attack skills.

Despite this, priests were highly sought after in teams. But all this had nothing to do with Qin Fan. Su Rou was a noble young lady, while he was just a poor orphan. If not for the system assigning this task, he and Su Rou probably wouldn't have crossed paths.

"Since it's all settled, I'll be going now," Qin Fan quickly said, not wanting to have too much to do with this rich beauty.

Actually, the main reason was that the little creature, Xiao Jiu, in his arms was getting restless and wanted to come out. Xiao Jiu had shrunk its originally one-meter-tall body to the size of a kitten because it had unlocked a dragon-exclusive skill called "Dragon Form Transformation" when it leveled up from 6 to 7. This skill not only allowed Xiao Jiu to adjust its body size freely but also came with two extremely powerful dragon stances: "Divine Fire Annihilation" and "Strength of Heaven."

Divine Fire Annihilation increased magical damage by 500% but decreased physical damage by 500%. Strength of Heaven increased physical damage by 500% but decreased magical damage by 500%. Truly befitting a Holy Dragon, a top-tier dragon species. Even leveling up granted such powerful transformation skills.

"Qin Fan, wait!" Just as Qin Fan was about to leave, Su Rou, who was usually very proud and never took anyone seriously, took the initiative to call out to him.

"What's the matter? Anything else?" Qin Fan asked, puzzled. The enemies were dead, and the monsters had fled due to Xiao Jiu's accidental release of a terrifying dragon aura. Su Rou was absolutely safe. So why was she calling him?

Seeing Qin Fan's indifferent expression, Su Rou bit her lip. Usually, any boy she spoke to would be overjoyed, but Qin Fan seemed slightly impatient, making Su Rou feel helpless. Still, she quickly said, "I'm just a priest. Staying here alone is too dangerous. If monsters attack at night, I won't be able to handle it. And... we're classmates. You can't just leave me to the monsters, can you?"

Qin Fan thought about it and realized she had a point. "Alright, you can stay with me for now. Tomorrow, you can go back the way you came."

But Su Rou blushed slightly and said softly, "That won't work. I might have to stick with you."

"Why?" Qin Fan frowned. Any other guy would be thrilled to have a beautiful girl like Su Rou wanting to stay with them, but Qin Fan wasn't interested.

"Because my phone is broken, and so is my high-tech nano computer... So, I don't have an electronic map or navigation and could easily get lost," Su Rou said with a pleading look, her eyes shining like gemstones.

"Ha!" Qin Fan sighed without feeling moved. Women were just trouble! Just as he was about to speak again, his collar started to move, as if something was trying to get out. In the next moment, under Su Rou's slightly surprised gaze, a small head popped out, its golden dragon eyes meeting Su Rou's.

"Ah! A lizard?" Su Rou exclaimed in surprise. She didn't expect Qin Fan to have a small, red lizard in his arms.

"Roar!!" Hearing the woman call it a lizard, Xiao Jiu was instantly displeased. It breathed out a small flame, as if warning Su Rou not to speak nonsense. It was a Flame Holy Dragon, not a lizard!

"So cute when it's angry!" Girls love cute things, and Su Rou's eyes sparkled with delight seeing the little dragon's adorable, fiery outburst.

"Xiao Jiu, calm down! I'll get you something tasty! She just doesn't know any better," Qin Fan hurriedly comforted the restless dragon, not wanting it to come out fully. Otherwise, Su Rou might be scared to death. This was a real Flame Holy Dragon cub, a top-tier dragon species!

"You..." Su Rou was annoyed that Qin Fan had called her ignorant to appease the little creature. But she thought better of it and let it go. No need to argue with a small pet. Moreover, it seemed like this little creature was Qin Fan's pet. Could it have dragon blood?

"Is this a dragon?" Su Rou suddenly asked.

Qin Fan was silent for a moment, then slowly answered, "Yes."

"This..." Su Rou was stunned, looking at the obedient little creature in Qin Fan's arms. It was hard to believe this little lizard was a dragon!

"What kind of dragon is it?" Su Rou continued to ask.

"Stop asking. It's impolite to pry further," Qin Fan said coolly.

"Oh..." Su Rou felt apologetic. It was indeed rude to ask about someone's professional secrets. But regardless, she was extremely shocked. Qin Fan had actually successfully bonded with a dragon! She didn't know what kind of dragon it was, but he had done it! And more importantly, his combat strength was terrifying. He had single-handedly defeated the Three Long brothers, Zhuo Feng, and Liu Qing, killing them in an instant. She realized she had underestimated this peer of hers.
