Chapter 2423: The Mystery of the Crystal Dragon’s Gender

*************************************************** *************************************************

Under my dull gaze, the intense white light spurted out from the crystal dragon, completely wrapping it up and turning it into the shape of a large cocoon. Then, the light gradually weakened, and gradually the body was revealed. ,,,

The crystal dragon that looked like a puppy just now turned into an ellipsoidal crystal ball after the light disappeared. Looking from a distance, one might actually mistake it for a huge silkworm cocoon.

This... what kind of trouble is this?

Things changed so suddenly that I couldn't wrap my head around it. I couldn't figure out what happened to the crystal dragon. In my mind, I could only vaguely recall Evelina's malicious laughter before she left.

It seems... no, I was definitely tricked by it.

"What...happened?" Just then, not far away, I heard Juliet's confused words as if she was sleepwalking. Only then did I suddenly remember that I was still in the form of the Holy Moon Wolf, and I quickly canceled the transformation. I took a quick look and breathed a sigh of relief.

Also, Juliet didn't open her eyes until the second after I canceled the transformation. She probably didn't notice it. The problem is still the oval crystal in front of her. What's going on? The evolution of the crystal dragon? Super evolution? The question is, why did it happen after seeing me, or to be precise, after seeing my Holy Moon Sage Wolf? Is it accidental or inevitable?

"Oh, oh, oh, what on earth happened?" Juliet, who was walking over wearing my cloak, also noticed a large lump of crystals in front of her eyes, showing a confused expression.

"I don't know either. That guy from the Crystal Dragon just now suddenly became like this." I shook my head and showed a blank look in my eyes. I didn't expect Juliet to be able to explain my confusion. She knew about the Crystal Dragon. ’s already told me.

But Juliet stared at the crystal for several seconds. But it gave me an unexpected surprise. She pressed her head and looked like she was thinking hard.

"It seems...a bit familiar."

"Do you know what happened?" I was overjoyed and asked quickly, after all, if something went wrong with the Crystal Dragon. It’s not easy for me to explain to the dragon clan.

"Hmm. Let me think about it carefully. I have some impression. It seems that just a few days ago... Jeluka..." Juliet kept nodding her chin in thought, looking cute and charming. Unfortunately, I was too impatient to appreciate it.

What does it have to do with the slutty maid? Could it be that when I was in the midst of a trial, the slutty maid had secretly come to the Bear Tribe? This is unlikely.

"Ah, by the way, I remembered." At this moment, Juliet clapped her palms, as if she had finally overcome the biggest difficulty and completed her mission, showing a look of relief, "As long as I work hard, it turns out that It can be done." A happy expression.

Of course, even if she is in such an excited mood, the soft and warm emotion on her face still does not feel any tension and urgency. Although the temperament she exudes can make people relax and calm, too much relaxation will quietly weaken her strength. Maybe this unique temperament can be used to deal with enemies, I thought secretly.

"Didn't His Highness the Prince ask me about the crystal dragon last time?"

"Was it when it first appeared?"

"Yes, that was the day." Juliet nodded gently, showing a faint smile, like a child asking for credit.

"His Highness asked me the gender of the Crystal Dragon. I didn't know and couldn't tell His Highness, so I asked Jeluka."

When exactly and by what means? I looked surprised, but now the things in front of me are more important than understanding these.

"Then does she know or not? How to say it?"

"Of course Jeluka knows. If she doesn't know, not many people in the entire elves will know."

"..." I didn't expect that Juliet would rate that dirty maid so highly. Did she overestimate that stupid maid, or did I never see clearly how powerful this stupid maid was?

"In the end, what happened? Does the current state of the crystal dragon have something to do with its gender?"

"Yes." Juliet nodded softly again, tilted her head and thought for a while, as if she was organizing her words, and then slowly spoke. Her single-core, single-threaded brain would still be very fast if she only focused on one thing. Fast and flexible.

"Jeluka, she said in the letter that because Crystal Dragon is a child of nature, it has no gender when it is born."

"Hmm, what next?"

"Then, as time passed and gradually grew, there was still no gender."

"What happens next?" I had a dark look on my face, and asked Madam Juliet to stop whetting my appetite and get to the point quickly.

"And then there is still no gender." Juliet replied softly with a smile.

"..."

"..."

"Okay, can you tell me how it changes gender... I mean, does it never have a gender, or does it change gender at a certain point?"

I began to reflect. Juliet's personality is difficult to change, so it must be that the way and posture I asked the questions were wrong, so she kept being titillated. She didn't mean it.

Sure enough, I asked the question correctly this time, and Juliet immediately gave me the answer I wanted.

"Yes, gender will change at a certain point. It does not always mean there is no gender." Juliet said, remembering something, she took out the letter from her arms and read it.

I said...can you just give me the letter paper? Considering that this confused knight is single-core and single-threaded, I still have no choice but to give up. Forget it, let her talk about it. Maybe I will get a small sense of accomplishment from it and make up for the boredom and emptiness in my heart.

"Jeruka, that's what she said. Crystal dragon's gender reassignment can be divided into two types. The first one is the most common. When the crystal dragon passes through the genderless infancy and growth period and reaches adulthood. It will be based on You can choose to become a female or a male based on your own experience and will. Of course, once you choose, you can’t change it.”

Isn't this pornographic maid talking nonsense? If she chooses to be able to continue to change her gender freely in the future... Just thinking about it makes people's balls break. That is absolutely beyond the existence of Futa.

"The second type is a bit special." Turning to the next piece of paper, Juliet already knew the content even if she read it once. He couldn't help but show surprise again. Of course, this surprise is like a shock in the gentle temperament of her slow-tempo without tension, and you can't feel it if you don't look carefully.

"Before reaching adulthood, if a crystal dragon encounters a being that shocks their souls, they will instinctively desire to be like that. Their gender selection will come early. Or even immediately."

"Wait...wait a minute..." Unwilling to accept the reality and deliberately not understand it.

"You...what you mean...can you explain it more clearly? What is going on?"

"Isn't this clear enough? I'm sorry. I'm always clumsy." Juliet regarded a certain druid's behavior of burying ostriches in the sand as the fault of her confused personality. She blamed herself and thought for a moment. Explain it again in simpler, clearer language.

"In other words, if a crystal dragon before adulthood sees beauty that can shock its heart and soul, no matter whether this beauty belongs to a male, a female, a human, an elf, an orc, or even other non-human beings, Humanoid species will have a strong instinctive desire to possess this beauty and become like the other person."

"In other words..." I snapped, and Otz fell to his knees, tremblingly pointing at the half-human-sized oval crystal block in front of him, wanting to cry without tears.

"In other words, the crystal dragon is now in the second state of gender selection?"

"Juliet doesn't know either. After all, rare species such as crystal dragons, even giant dragons, don't often see similar species. It's even more mysterious to us."

Juliet shook her head slightly and stared at the crystal at her feet. Then she looked at His Royal Highness who was in an inexplicable state of despair. She looked confused and couldn't figure out why he suddenly became like this. The crystal dragon's gender change was just like the elf's adulthood. The ceremony is the same, it is very solemn and grand, and it is worthy of celebration. Why does His Highness look like the end of the world is coming?

"Hehe... Hehehe... Hehe... Hehehehe... So that's it, that's what it looks like. It seems like it can't be wrong. No, it doesn't matter if it's wrong. I'd rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. Hehehehe..."

A certain druid, who was completely blackened by despair, uttered vague and horrifying words like a curse, stood up unsteadily, touched behind his back, and slowly took out a long sword.

"It's too late to kill it now... for the sake of moral integrity... the battle to defend moral integrity... I have to do this... even if it's the dragon clan in the future... then... absolutely... I'm sorry... it's all your fault... why don't you take care of yourself... Choose...I have to choose..."

As he said that, the long sword slowly rose up, and it was about to start a scene where Li Jing was chopping a meat ball.

Although Juliet was confused, seeing His Highness the Prince's movements, she knew how to stop him no matter how confused she was. With a rare swift move, she rushed forward and hugged a certain blackened druid from behind.

"I'm sorry...but I think...it's wrong for Your Highness to do this...you can't do this..."

"Let me go, Juliet. I have a reason to do this. Although I'm sorry for the Crystal Dragon, it forced me to do it. I'm also a victim!"

I struggled hard, furious, and then sadly discovered that Juliet's strength was more than ten times stronger than mine. Not to mention breaking through her blockage, all the bones in my body were about to be killed by her hug. It was as if I heard the mourning of two hundred and six bones and saw the enthusiastic wave of German orthopedics.

When I realized that the situation was not good, I no longer cared about turning black. It was more important to save my life first.

"Juliet, wait, you...can you let go a little bit first? I...I'm almost out of breath from your hug."

"No, Lord Lanster will definitely take advantage of my letting go and hurt the Crystal Dragon." The Confused Knight showed a rare moment of wit and intensified his strength.

Wait...wait...it's really going to break...the bones are about to break...does it really have to be transformed? I, the majestic elder of the alliance, the elf prince and the beast warrior, are going to be reduced to this? Are you going to be killed in the arms of a slender and weak healing wife type confused elf knight?

Then his eyes darkened and he hiccupped.

"Your Highness. Your Highness, are you okay?" In the confusion, Juliet's anxious voice came. When he opened his eyes, he found that he was sleeping on the bed, wearing his own cloak, but there was Juliet's fragrance on the cloak. Could it be the one I put on her before?

No, now is not the time to think about this.

"Where's the crystal dragon?" I quickly sat up and asked.

"No... no way. Your Highness, I can't let you do this." Although Juliet looked regretful, she still stretched out her hands nervously, like a hen protecting its chicks, to stop me.

"What if I order you to get out of the way in the name of His Royal Highness?"

"This...this..." Juliet was stunned and thought for a while. Gritting his teeth, he decisively stepped aside. What a good boy. She was so good that I couldn't help but want to reach out and touch her head.

"Don't worry, I've calmed down and won't want to hurt the crystal dragon anymore. In its current state, I can't hurt it even if I want to."

Taking a look at the crystal on the ground, I can guarantee with my little integrity that this thing's current state is ten times harder than its usual crystal body. Not to mention my body, even if I transform into a cosplay bear, You may not be able to do anything with it.

"That's right." Juliet suddenly realized, and then she knelt down before me. I was frightened and quickly supported her.

"I'm sorry, Juliet misunderstood His Highness, and even caused His Highness to faint. Juliet is not a qualified knight, and she is not qualified to be the backup for the Twelve Knights. Juliet... Juliet is useless... ugh Woohoo~~~”

As he spoke, the confused and gentle elf girl choked up and cried.

"Don't, don't be like this, be good, my behavior is too abnormal, how can I blame you." Comforting crying girls is not my strong point. I panicked when Juliet cried. I hugged her and gently He gently patted her back to comfort her, feeling like coaxing a child.

"But...but..."

"Stop being stubborn, I say you are useful, you will be useful." I had no choice but to pretend to be angry and use a tougher tone.

"Yes...yes." Seeing that I was angry, Juliet shut up obediently, but the comforting effect of these words seemed to be good, and she cheered up a bit.

"Well, that's how you behave." I breathed out, and when I let her go, I subconsciously touched her head. Ah, I really did this, to a woman who looked mature and healed.

Because of my action, Juliet was stunned for a moment, and then chuckled: "Mira, you touch my head like this from time to time."

"Ahem, sorry, without permission..." I was a little embarrassed. I felt that what I said was wrong. Even if it was allowed, I couldn't do it. After all, the other party was a noble successor to the Twelve Knights, but his personality was a little confused. , not a pornographic maid, nor Amrudina.

"It's okay. When I grow up, there will be fewer and fewer people touching my head like this. In fact, I don't mind. If the other person is someone who can accept it, I will feel at ease and comfortable." Juliet said softly Huhu, seemed to laugh with some happiness and nostalgia.

"On the contrary, everyone thinks it's more appropriate for me to touch other people's heads like this. They are all deceived by my appearance, probably."

"Ha...Hahaha, that's right, because Juliet you seem to be a mature and steady person who doesn't panic when things happen."

I smiled bitterly, seemingly knowing a terrible secret. Can I understand this sentence to mean that Juliet prefers to be comforted by others than comforting others. Although she has a mature appearance, she tends to show love to others in her heart. behave in a spoiled manner?

"Ha, that's right. I don't like to speak because I'm afraid of saying the wrong thing. I don't like to move because I'm afraid of doing the wrong thing and being misunderstood by everyone. Haha~~~"

Juliet also covered her mouth and chuckled. Maybe she was used to it. When she said this about herself, she didn't look sad at all, but in the eyes of others, it touched the heart, made people feel unbearable pity, and made people unable to help themselves. I want to be by her side and protect her cute and pitiful confusion.

Shaking my head vigorously, I jumped off the bed and came to the crystal. I stared at it for a long time, sighed, picked it up, and put it on the bed. Uh... it's so heavy. It's easier to do than the previous puppy form. , the solid wooden bed covered with stones below creaked and sank with a mournful sound under the weight of this crystal.

If the bed is crushed, you'll pay for it by digging out the crystals from your body! I thought angrily, clapped my hands, and prepared to leave it like this.

"How many days will this state last before it can complete its gender transformation?" Looking back, I continued to ask Juliet humbly.

"I don't know. Jeluka didn't say it. Maybe she doesn't know either."

"Let me confirm again, when it wakes up, will it turn into the appearance of the existence that makes her feel soul-shaking beauty?"

"That's right."

"Can I change back to the form of a crystal dragon?"

"able."

"Can you still turn into a puppy?"

"I think... it should be possible. Logically speaking, ordinary dragons should not have such a transformation ability. This should be a unique ability of crystal dragons."

"Ha..." I pressed my temples with a headache, and my vision was farsighted at a 45-degree angle.

This immoral world should just be destroyed...
