I Have a Dragon in My Body - Chapter 27
The morning sun rose as a ray of sunlight entered the room.
Feeling the light against his skin, Mark quickly sat up and looked up at the time.
It was already seven in the morning.
Since there were no classes today, he woke up later than usual.
Last night, he had another strange dream. He had been playing with a dragon in a black and white space!
Moreover, he could clearly sense a sense of affinity from this dragon!
“What’s going on?” As he spoke, he raised his hand.
At this moment, he surprisingly discovered that a contract insignia had appeared on his wrist!
“This? I don’t remember signing a contract with any magical beast!”
Sitting up, Mark immediately activated his contractual magic.. All of his magic rushed towards the contract insignia.
In an instant, the magic in his body was depleted, and the other end of the magic contract sucked it all in.
Then, a gray flame covered his arm!
It was a flame because Mark could clearly see the gray light on his arm directly igniting the sofa beside him.
As he extinguished the flames, he could clearly sense a powerful force in his arm!
Therefore, he quickly stood up and went to the backyard. He found a rock and squeezed it with his hand.
The rock in his palm was easily crushed like tofu.
This test was too low-level. Even under ordinary circumstances, it could be done with a little magic enhancement.
Thinking of this, Mark took out an ordinary small dagger and cast a throwing spell.
Perhaps because the short sword had reached its limit, it began to hum and tremble in Mark’s hand.
Taking aim at the nearby woods, Mark used this arm that emitted gray flames to throw the dagger.
Then, a shocking scene occurred!
The small forest that was more than ten meters in radius was directly blown to bits by the short sword in Mark’s hand!
With the short sword as the center, a semicircle-shaped hole was formed fifteen meters away. The mushroom cloud rose into the sky.
The tremendous power behind this throw was evident!
“What!” Looking at everything in front of him, Mark was stunned.
After hearing the explosion, everyone in the student dormitory was jolted awake. They surrounded the huge pit and discussed.
Soon, the academy guards rushed over and began to investigate the explosion.
In the yard, as Mark regained his senses, he saw the dormitory manager, Gideon Adonis, who happened to pass by.
After dispelling the insignia that had been filled with magic, he grabbed Adonis and whispered in his ear, “I need your help!”
Stopping in his tracks, Adonis was very confused. He quickly linked the explosion to Mark.
He turned around and asked, “Did you cause the explosion?”
“Yes!” Mark scratched his head in embarrassment.
Adonis maintained his calm. After all, it was normal for such a thing to happen to many excellent students in the academy!
As long as no one was injured, the destruction of the items was a small matter.
“I’ll help you deal with this matter. As for the fees, I’ll give you a list later!”
With that, he turned and rushed to the scene.
After hearing his words, Mark sighed in relief!
“Phew~ Fortunately, the teachers here are more tolerant. Otherwise, I may be severely punished!”
After Adonis entered the scene, the surrounding people were quickly dispersed.
He commanded the guards at the scene to surround the daMaged areas with a very conspicuous warning system. Then, he commanded the workers to clean up the areas that were not damaged.
After doing all this, he left the scene and prepared to return to his office to find someone to repair the area.
Through the destruction displayed on the spot, Adonis could not help but admire Mark’s luck.
This kind of destruction was more than ten meters in diameter. If he accidentally blew up any student, there might not even be a corpse left!
Fortunately, during this period of time in the morning, no students appeared around this small forest.
Upon leaving the school building, Mark went straight to the breakfast shop he was used to.
After eating, he went to the Garrison Guard Station and handed over the letter of appointment.
Taking a look at it, the receptionist immediately stood up and led Mark to the office of the head of the Garrison Guards.
After the receptionist knocked on the door, she brought Mark in.
He walked to the desk and whispered something in the ear of a man in the uniform of the Garrison Guards, then left.
The head of the Garrison Guards immediately stood up and said to Mark, “Harry Ashborne, head of the Garrison Guards.”
“You must be Mark. Welcome to our team!”
After the self-introduction, he took out a box of badges from the cabinet and handed it to Mark.
“This is the emblem of the Empire’s Special Operations Team. From today onwards, you are the leader of the third team!”
“As for teammates, you can choose by yourself, or you can choose to complete the mission alone!”
“There are no clear rules in these aspects!”
In the following period of time, Mark spoke to him a little and learned about the benefits of the position and the reward for the mission.
Before leaving, Mark thanked Harry, “Thank you! If there’s anything you can help with, just contact me!”
“I will do my best without affecting my studies!” With that, he turned and left the office.
Looking at Mark’s back, Harry Ashborne could not help but walk back to his desk and investigate all the missions he had done in the Adventurer’s Guild.
He found that Mark liked to accept village defense battles. He also helped to rescue people and find herbs that gave very little rewards.
At first glance, ordinary people would think that Mark was just an ordinary adventurer without any ability who could only do these very low-risk missions.
But Harry knew his strength well, and the speed at which the previous two events had been resolved!
After more than a day, he had completed a mission that most people in the Empire’s Garrison Guards could not.
He could not help but sigh inwardly, “Truly an incredible child. No wonder Nelson pays so much attention to this person!”
Before leaving the Garrison Guard Station, Mark received a multi-purpose belt, an Empire standard sword, and a cloak with the emblem of the Empire’s Garrison Guards.
After putting everything away, Mark could not help but sigh at how rich the empire’s treasury was.
These four items were all excellent equipment. The total value was at least 1 platinum coin, which was about 1,000 gold coins.
