Speed Is King

The next two weeks passed by in a blink of an eye.

With the sheer power that Elliot had in his camp, there was already nothing in the entire continent apart from Hegemons that could threaten him.

The Gaming Commission worked diligently in the background to dissuade and threaten the Hegemons that had their eyes on Elliot to pull back, and got Elliot to switch on his stealth device which he got from Director Sands to evade those Hegemons that insisted on looking for him.

All in all, a tense but peaceful two weeks passed by without incident.

Khalendros and Khellendra had insisted that Elliot take a few drops of their concentrated blue dragon blood in return for the incredible power that they had received, and to balance the Red Dragon Blood Essence that he had absorbed.

And so, Elliot had spent the whole of the two weeks just absorbing, digesting and upgrading his Dragon Transformation and the resulting Purgatory Fire Energy.

Only that it definitely could no longer be called Purgatory “Fire” Energy, because it was no longer only fire based.

From the Chromatic Dragons, he got red and blue blood, and was missing black, white and green.

From the Metallic Dragons, he got all five. Gold, silver, bronze copper and brass.

The resulting energy that formed within him was something that was completely unique, and one that also completely smashed to smithereens the power benchmark of the known universe.

As a mere King, Elliot’s energy now had the qualitative strength to compete with Hegemons!

After fruitlessly consulting with Hawk the AI, Gilgamar, Red and the two blue dragons, all of whom had no idea what would happen if he took all five blood essences and the blue dragon’s concentrated blood at the same time, Elliot decided that he would do it one at a time.

The first one he consumed was the blue dragons’.

His Darklight enhanced body immediately got to work, and completely absorbed the blue dragons’ concentrated blood and allowed it to transform his body at the cellular level in absolutely record speed.

In one short day, the process was complete!

The blue dragon energy flowed alongside his Purgatory Fire Energy completely harmoniously!

Upon realizing that it was completely safe, Elliot tried ingesting Brass.

The same thing happened as with the blue dragons’ concentrated blood.

And so he promptly took the remaining four in one go.

His body took in the four little drops of Dragon Blood Essences and rapidly got to work.

After three days, the process was finally done.

Thick draconic energy of all seven dragon types traversed the energy pathways of his body like so many glorious Kings and Emperors riding down the streets of a city at the head of their armies.

Every so often, a dragon King or a dragon Emperor would roar powerfully and caused Elliot’s entire being to tremble violently as he struggled to contain the vast power of said dragon within him.

One would expect that with so many different but similarly powerful energies within a body, Elliot would implode as the energies clashed with each other.

Because if the seven draconic energy were Kings and Emperors, then the Purgatory Fire Energy was like their God.

It had a qualitative advantage over them that was as unbridgeable as the chasm that laid between hell and heaven!

All seven dragon energy types bowed under the majesty and complete dominance of the Purgatory Fire Energy, and submitted themselves to it.

There was no room at all for the dragon energies to revolt, or cause trouble within his body!

At that moment, Elliot started to consume his stock of Life Seeds and Deconstructed Living Armor. A generous flow of mysterious Life energy and Death energy entered his body and began to combine with each other, with the six dragon energies and with the existing Purgatory Fire Energy.

Slowly, one at a time, the Kings and Emperors, and the Purgatory Fire Energy faded away.

And in its place was a brand new type of energy, one that had all the strengths of the previous energies, and completely none of their weaknesses!

It would be difficult to understand just how powerful Elliot was without understanding the rarity of the energies he now wielded.

In his body were seven draconic energies from two distinct lineages, The Chromatic Dragons and the Metallic Dragons, and they exhibited six of the twelve elements in their own unique ways, combined into one.

As a whole, draconic energy was a single tier above normal energy. Dragon Fire Energy was stronger than normal Fire Energy.

However, with the passing of time, there are several types of draconic energy that have disappeared.

Dragon Chaos Energy, Dragon Time Energy, Dragon Space Energy, Dragon Water Energy and Dragon Earth Energy.

Only seven types of Dragon Energies remained, and Elliot had his hands on six.

Gold Dragons represent the Royal Element – Light.

Directly in opposition to it were the Black Dragons who represent the Royal Element – Black.

Silver Dragons represent the Advanced Element – Wind.

Directly in opposition to it were the Blue Dragons representing the Advanced Element – Lightning.

Both Bronze and Red Dragons represent the Basic Element – Fire.

Both Brass and White Dragons represent the basic Element – Water.

Both Copper and Green Dragons represent the Basic Element – Wood.

Elliot was only missing the Blood Essence of a Black Dragon, and he would have gotten his hands on all of the available dragon energy types within the known universe!

And as it were, even with one missing draconic energy, Elliot was already a being whose power far surpassed the vast majority of living beings in the universe.

And in terms of potential, he was far and away above every single being in existence.

He was a King who was able to go head to head with a Hegemon!

The only one in his power level who could do that!

After another full week of slowly transforming the energy within him, Elliot was finally done.
