Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System - Chapter 1045: A Nature Dragon's Ama

"This guy… I heard they called him a dragon? Is he really one?"

Root, a mass of plants, branches, and countless trees. It resembled a moving embodiment of nature. Yet this strange entity was nothing but a dragon… or something similar to one. His past was shrouded with mystery, and not even he could remember everything of his past aside from a few things.

However, he used to be a friend of Oberon, the first Ancient Venerable. His power used to be comparable to Gods near Rank 9, however, his friend of all his life, Oberon, betrayed him and killed him, using his corpse to raise to Rank 10 and become a Venerable.

When he died filled with bitterness, Yggdrasil's Will heard his cries. He was given a second chance, as his soul was retrieved, healed, and then reincarnated millions of years later into a single seed. A special seed that Yggdrasil had created, a true guardian she had designed to stop Oberon's malice from corrupting the world.

And this powerful seed was…

[Divine Yggdrasil Dragon] [Rank: 8 (Initial Stage)] [Status: Calm]

A unique creation of the Yggdrasil Tree. An entity created through the power of the Yggdrasil's tree and the last remaining Draconic Essence within the bones of an Ancient Dragon long dead. Designated to protect the world and aid Alma in her fight against Oberon's Soul Fragments. A being of incredible power over Nature, but rather sluggish. It is both a plant, a spirit, and a dragon, a being of unfathomable power that has yet to tap into its own full potential.

[Fortune]: [A+++]

[Physical Strength]: [S-]

[Magical Power]: [S+]

[Dexterity and Agility]: [A++]

Drake looked at Root's status from afar, feeling surprised by this Dragon's amazing might. His set of Skills were also very similar to the Yggdrasil Guardians he fought back inside of his Dream Dungeon. Perhaps he was something similar to those monsters, but actually real and not made out by his own powers. His description alone said a lot already.

"Made by Yggdrasil itself? So that's what this being is…" Drake thought. "But why is Yggdrasil aiding us now with this ally, didn't this Will cursed me and Alma though? Feels like it changed its mind very quickly…"

As Drake thought that while fighting, Root watched at Alma fight, her graceful movements and ruthless fighting style surprised him.

"So Alma has finally reached the power she actually had within herself. The aid of that Dragon, Drake. Might had been greater than I originally believed. It is already a fact, as I've become Rank 8 thanks to him…" Root thought, as he slowly looked back into the enormous mechs approaching.

"I suppose I have to fight as well, I cannot remain here slugging around. [Body Division]."

FLAAASH!

Suddenly, the enormous mass of plants and trees that composed Root divided into two exact copies, and then both began to transform into different shapes!

"[Nature Dragon Transformation]!"

"[Spirit Tree Transformation]!"

FLASH! FLASH!

Both bodies shone bright gold, as dozens of red beams were fired at Root to decimate him before he could do anything funny. Nonetheless, those beams came a bit too late for the mechs that tried to stop him.

BOOOOMMMM!!!

The explosion of the beams felt underwhelming despite the loud noise. The smoke quickly dissipated, revealing an enormous sixty-meter-tall dragon covered completely with wood, plants, flowers, vines, and leaves.

It looked majestic, overflowing with Life and Nature Divinity. Its golden eyes shone brightly, as his presence unleashed an air of majestic pride that all dragons held… However, the other half he created didn't turn into a dragon, but grew enormously big, reaching as tall as a two hundred meters in mere seconds. An enormous willow tree erected into the skies, with many branches and leaves and all, and three holes in the middle of its trunk, presumably its own face.

Greenwood looked at the scene while narrowing his eyes. He couldn't contain his shock. Root, the guardian of Alma that has accompanied her since she was a little girl, and that even helped her at freeing herself from his laboratory so long ago, had evolved even more now, becoming an incredible being.

His Spirit Tree Form quickly acted independently, activating powerful Divine Abilities imbued with Divine Power and large quantities of Mana.

"Spirit Tree Magic: Spiritual Domain of Vitality and Strength!"

FLAAASH!

The enormous tree unleashed a beautiful golden aura which spread through the battlefield, boosting everybody's strength through the roof. Their physical stamina, vitality, and physical strength all underwent a radical enhancement. They felt not just twice or thrice as strong, but over ten times!

And this even affected his other body, the Nature Dragon Form, which with this greater and new enhancement, utilized it to jump from the ground and fly with its leaf-covered wings, reaching one of the mechs and attacking it with deadly draconic jaws!

CRAAASH!

"SHAAA!"

The snake-shaped mech had its head blown into pieces, but its cores quickly attempted to fuel the nanomachines to repair its damage. However, Root was not foolish to not have figured out such pesky tricks himself, easily overwhelming the snake as its claws and roots spread over the entire mech, crushing it, and making it shatter into pieces.

Crack… Crack…!

CRASH!

"ROOOARRR!"

However, right after he defeated one, three dragon-type mechs reached Root from behind, opening their jaws and unleashing red laser beams against him!

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

The red laser beams capable of easily burning and searing through metal itself were not even getting through Root's outer wooden scales, as the prideful Nature Dragon roared back and then unleashed a storm of slicing leaves.

Although leaves shouldn't even be strong enough to cut through metal, they were as sharp as blades, cutting through the metallic dragons in front of him and slicing them all into pieces.

"Oberon, your Technomancy has no advantage against the might of Nature!"
