“An egg? The one challenging me is an egg?”
Adams came back to his senses and gradually accepted the reality before him.
He was now certain that the only entity who could start the Battle of existence was the Dragon Egg.
Moreover, the target of the Battle of Existence was Adams himself.
Adams had thought that some great existence had come across his scuffle and punished him for attempting to snatch the dragon egg.
Never had he expected that the entity responsible for the challenge was the dragon egg!
Adams’ worries vanished, and he even felt like laughing out loud.
“So, little baby, how are you planning to go against me?”
“Are you going to use that fragile eggshell of yours? You want to use it to hit me?”
“Haha?”
“Or are you planning to break out of the eggshell first and use your wings that are as thin as moths to chase after me?”
Adams could not believe his luck at the moment.
Eight thousand long years had passed, and because of his mediocre talent, he had never been able to break through into the realm of Ancient Dragons.
He had already located a junior to carry out a Battle of Existence on to prolong his life and improve his talent.
It was a backup plan that he had prepared for himself.
He had even readied himself to be punished by Mother Tiamat and to be hunted down by the other dragons.
However, those worries had long vanished. After all, there was a mere dragon egg that had challenged him!
It was essentially stealing candy from a baby!
“Dragon God, did you see that?”
“I’m not the one who initiated the Battle of Existence. I’m the one being challenged!”
“I’m not guilty!”
In this Battle of Existence, Adams was the one being challenged.
This meant that even if he destroyed the dragon egg and plundered everything from it, he would still be let off scot-free.
Logically speaking, no one could say that he was in the wrong, and the Dragon God could not punish his actions actions.
Adams became more and more excited. He flapped his wings and stirred up a fierce wind.
The gusts of wind that hit the barrier of the origin space rebounded, and they reverberated in this space until it filled every corner.
In Adams’ eyes, the dragon egg was no match for it. He did not even have to attack it. Just a gust of wind was enough to destroy the dragon egg.
However, the omnipresent gale did not topple the dragon egg. The dragon egg hung in the center of the origin space and did not budge at all.
Despite the gale-force winds surrounding it, the egg was as stable as a statue.
A trace of unease gradually formed in Adams’ heart, but he shook his head. No matter how mediocre he was, it was not to the extent of not being able to defeat a dragon egg.
‘It looks like my wing attack is ineffective against it.’
Adams stretched out his front claws. The Black Dragons not only had a strong acid breath, but they also possessed the greatest physical strength out of all their brethren.
An 8,000-year-old black dragon had claws that were sharper than any sword in the world, and its scales were stronger than all the city walls in the world.
Hand-to-hand combat was Adams’ specialty.
Adams did not intend to continue playing this game with the Dragon Egg. He wanted to end this battle.
“Thank you for your dedication. Now, go die obediently!”
Adams flapped his wings and rapidly advanced. He waved his claws at the dragon egg.
He knew how strong he was. With this claw, even an Ancient Dragon would lose a piece of flesh!
What’s more, his target was a mere dragon egg. If his claw attack were to land, he was confident that he would obliterate the egg!
However, the expected impact did not come. Adams realized that he had missed.
It was not that Adams was dizzy from old age.
It was that dragon egg that had disappeared!
“I also want to thank you for your contribution, Adams Spaulen Brumuomte Tracy.”
Adams heard a voice coming from above his head.
It was calling his true name!
Adams raised his head.
A huge red dragon spread its wings that covered the sky.
“Who… Are you…”
The moment he saw the red dragon, Adams felt an irresistible pressure. It was an intense pressure that threatened to squash him!
Adams did not understand the scene before him.
He was supposed to face off against a dragon egg, and yet, there was a gargantuan monster before him!
Adams had no idea what had happened!
The only two things that Adams was aware of was that, there was a dragon above him, and it was red in color.
As for how strong it was, Adams had no idea.
He did not know before because he had never seen such a creature before. Moreover, he had also failed to notice his body crumbling into dust.
He would never learn of the red dragon’s strength, as his future had already been robbed by Max!
“Phew…”
Max, who was in the dragon egg, let out a long breath.
[ Battle victory, Black Dragon, Adams’ template, loading… ]
[ Loading completed ]
[ Acidic Dragon Breath obtained, as well as melee combat ability ]
Looking at the interface in front of him, Max knew that the battle outside was over, and he was victorious.
In truth, Max had no idea what was happening outside.
After all, it was a Battle of Existence, so Max had naturally chosen his strongest future form.
As for how the battle outside was fought, Max was clueless.
However, from the fact that it had only taken him an instant to defeat an 8,000 year-old dragon, Max was certain that he would become fairly strong in the future.
Upon this thought, Max smiled in relief. “System, look at my attributes.”

“Hiss…”
Max took a deep breath.
The system is not lying to me!
Previously, Max already knew that he was a dragon, and he was also a Red Dragon, the subtype that was the most proficient in magic among the dragons.
However, since he had not hatched from his egg yet, there was nothing written in the ‘magic’ column.
As a Red Dragon, he should not have had so many melee skills. After all, he abilities like Bite, Tail Swipe, and Claw Strike.
‘It seems that I’ve obtained Adams’ abilities.’
However, the screen was filled with various locked skills.
‘It seems that I need to hatch to use these skills!’
‘I need to hatch as soon as possible!’
