Chapter 55: The Tyrannical Tyrannosaurus Little Gray

The Indominus Raptor and the Indominus Rex—to be honest, Wang Liang didn't know much about either. The only things he knew were that both summons were level 30, one with Agility reaching 50 points, the other with Strength reaching 50 points.

If Zhao Gongming from before were still around, he might have told Wang Liang that some things weren't as simple as just summoning a creature—players also had to provide their summons with a direction and guidance for growth.

For a summon with choices like the one before him, one would normally compare future development paths before making a decision.

But Wang Liang wasn't thinking that deeply at the moment. Unsure of the difference between the two dinosaurs, he chose Strength.

"Summon Indominus Rex!"

The moment Wang Liang's words fell, the buried Indominus Heart let out a booming sound, exactly like the striking of a heavy drum. The sound immediately drew the attention of Lu Chenghuang and the others.

They all looked toward Wang Liang.

But Wang Liang had no time to pay them any mind. He stared at the throbbing Indominus Heart before him and noticed a massive amount of black-red blood spraying from it.

This blood was like strong acid, corroding the piled-up corpses of lesser demons.

Under the blood's corrosion, the demon corpses melted into a thick, viscous liquid that was absorbed into the heart as it pulsed.

Then everyone noticed the heart floating up within that viscous liquid, rising to about ten meters in height.

Afterward, the heart's beating grew stronger and stronger. Nearby demon corpses began flying up on their own, plunging into the liquid.

At the same time, Wang Liang and the others heard one roar after another coming from within the liquid—sometimes like a dragon's cry, sometimes like a wild boar's squeal.

Seeing this, Lu Chenghuang and his group hurried over, but they knew this was Wang Liang's affair. Unless the situation spiraled out of control, they wouldn't interfere.

It was the abbot of Yuanshan Temple who looked at the blood and said in surprise, "This blood feels like it's synthesized from many different creatures."

Wang Liang sensed something was off too. He turned his head and found Lu Chenghuang and the others seemingly waiting for his explanation.

Quick-witted as he was, Wang Liang immediately said, "Antlers like a deer, head like a camel, eyes like a rabbit..."

Before he could finish, Lu Chenghuang continued, "Neck like a snake, belly like a mirage, scales like a fish—these are the assemblies of a dragon. This should be a failed product from ancient dragon-forging, a pseudo-dragon used to guard Dragon Kings. Everyone, disperse—there's nothing worth seeing."

With Lu Chenghuang's explanation, the others left. Only the Yuanshan Temple abbot lingered reluctantly, muttering, "Let me have one more look. A pseudo-dragon is still a dragon—let alone an ancient unformed dragon. Even a failed product aligns with the Heavenly Dao. One more glance might reveal the chance at the Great Way."

Lu Chenghuang was speechless. He tugged at the abbot and said, "Fellow Daoist, this is another Dragon King's secret. If you're not afraid of drawing out the ancient dragon race, then by all means, keep watching."

On the other side, General Fish was also puzzled. He had heard Lu Chenghuang's words, and he also sensed within the heart's bloodline an overwhelming presence of the ocean.

Could Wang Liang really be a Dragon King? Was this truly a guardian sent by the Dragon King for him? But why had he never heard of this?

General Fish mulled it over. He recalled that when Lu Chenghuang had rallied everyone to march against the Demon Ridge of Jingyang Ridge, the Turtle Minister in charge of the Dragon King Temple's civil affairs hadn't seemed resistant at all. Instead, he'd readily sent troops out.

Could it be that he knew something in advance?

Definitely so. That old turtle clearly knew there was something special here, yet didn't give him a heads-up. It almost made him miss this opportunity. No—he absolutely had to build a good relationship with the Dragon King.

A thought stirred in General Fish's mind. He had already decided: the aquatic yin soldiers would definitely join the battles ahead.

Wang Liang, of course, knew nothing of General Fish's or Lu Chenghuang's thoughts. As he gave his explanation, the Indominus Heart began to contract inward.

More and more demon corpses flew into the liquid. Their bones, flesh, and blood began to break down and reassemble, until finally they slowly pieced together the form of a colossal dinosaur.

That dinosaur stood fully nine meters tall, with a total length exceeding twenty-one meters from head to tail. But unlike the mountain-like bulk of the Wild Boar Mountain Whale, this dinosaur was clearly a muscular specimen.

Its head was somewhat pointed, and when its jaws opened to their fullest, they spanned nearly two meters. Inside its mouth, besides two rows of uneven yet razor-sharp fangs, three pairs of outcurved tusks grew from its upper jaw.

Its forelimbs were quite long—when it crouched forward, they could almost reach the ground. Four fingers tipped with dagger-like claws looked as dexterous as human hands.

Its back was covered with a full ridge of reversed spines and thorns, seemingly serving in place of scales.

Powerful hind legs and a long tail maintained its balance, allowing it to unleash tremendous force in short bursts.

When this strange dinosaur, with its gray-white hide marked by blood-red veins, appeared and let out a thunderous roar at the sky, a set of data materialized before Wang Liang's eyes.

[Name: None (Indominus Rex)]
[Gender: Male]
[Class: None]
[Level: 30 (0%)]
[Identity: Guardian (Loyal)]

[Description: A special creature produced from the genetic fusion of nearly a hundred species—Tyrannosaurus rex, raptor, Giganotosaurus, Carnotaurus, Majungasaurus, Therizinosaurus, Rugops, squid, tree frog, viper, and more—revived through the heart-blood of a boar demon and a large number of demon corpses. It possesses extraordinary strength and considerable intelligence, making it a servant with extremely high growth potential.]

Looking at the data, Wang Liang hesitated for a moment, then pointed at the Indominus Rex and said, "Little Gray, Little Gray, you're here."

The Indominus Rex, now named Little Gray, showed no dissatisfaction—it simply stared at Wang Liang with its eyes wide open.

Wang Liang then turned his hand over, and a spine bone taller than himself appeared in his palm. The bone seemed wrapped in countless golden threads, looking like a standing pillar.

Wang Liang tossed it toward Little Gray, pointed at the beast, and said, "Strength 44, Agility 36, Constitution 28—allocate the points like that, and this thing is yours."
