The Dragon's roar instantly startled everyone on Dragonstone's old and new islands. The busy crowd immediately began frantically searching for cover.
"The Dragon is here!"
"The Dragon is here!"
The bustling streets of Fishing Village and White Sheep Town instantly became completely deserted within minutes.
This was a skill that the residents of Dragonstone had long cultivated.
This is because large gatherings of people can easily attract the attention of Dragons. Especially for wild Dragons, they can eat people.
On Dragonstone, it is common for livestock to be stolen and eaten by Dragons. In the past, there were also frequent cases of herdsmen being accidentally killed and eaten by Dragons.
Over time, they gradually developed and discovered a relatively effective self-rescue method. That is, when facing a Dragon, immediately find cover and stay away from the Dragon.
If you cannot dodge in time, you must look the Dragon directly in the eye, because turning your back on a Dragon will make it feel provoked, which can easily cause the Dragon to attack people with deadly force.
The Dragon Guards also quickly took Viserys and Emma to a nearby natural cave.
"Viserys, Daenerys won't be in danger, will she? That's Glutton, the most ferocious Dragon."
Emma anxiously held Viserys's hand, both asking and hoping to receive comforting words from her husband to soothe her current nervous and uneasy heart.
Viserys gently took Emma's hand and softly comforted her,
"Don't worry, Emma! Dreamfire is also a very powerful Dragon. And didn't it have a big battle with Glutton before and nothing happened? This time, it will definitely be fine too."
"Moreover, Dreamfire's speed far exceeds Glutton's, so even if it is not an opponent, escaping is not a problem at all."
Rhaenyra was very smart this time; she directly rode Syrax quickly towards High Tide, because Princess Rhaenys's Dragon, Red Queen Meleys, is one of the more powerful adult Dragons still alive in the House Targaryen.
It is one of the few Dragons that can contend with Glutton. If it and Dreamfire join forces, they should be able to drive Glutton away.
After Daenerys rode Dreamfire into the sky, she did not rush to attack Glutton. Instead, she intercepted the old Dragon, making Dreamfire fly above it to intimidate it and prevent it from advancing further.
This was to buy enough time for the Dragons to hide in their Dragon dens. At the same time, it also bought enough evacuation time for everyone on Dragonstone's two islands, to avoid being affected by the upcoming Dragon battle.
But facing Dreamfire's angry, high-pitched roar of deterrence, Glutton seemed to completely ignore it. It directly accelerated and lunged at Dreamfire.
Although this oldest living Dragon did not have a body size that matched its age, its scales, which were even more weathered and sturdy than Vhagar's, gave it super strong defense.
And its less bulky and massive body also made its flexibility far exceed Vhagar's. Coupled with its cunning and ferocious personality, Glutton was hailed as the most terrifying Dragon on Dragonstone.
Facing the charging Glutton, Daenerys wisely rode Dreamfire to quickly flee into the distance; she did not intend to directly confront this old Dragon head-on.
Instead, she would try to delay time as much as possible, waiting for other supporting Dragons to arrive before launching a counterattack against Glutton together.
However, Daenerys also did not dare to let Dreamfire get too far from Glutton, lest Glutton turn back to attack the Dragons or the people below.
Dreamfire's current speed is faster than Glutton's, because it has plenty of food every day and its physical strength is much stronger than Glutton's, so Dreamfire has enough energy and ability to circle around with it.
Unfortunately, the weather was not cooperating. Dragonstone, which has always been prone to storms. After a brief mugginess in the morning, thick clouds had already begun to gather rapidly, and a storm was quickly brewing.
Just as Dreamfire was constantly circling with Glutton, thick clouds quickly swept in, covering the sky.
This undoubtedly brought great risks to Dreamfire and Daenerys. Because these thick clouds are very suitable for Dragon's concealment and ambush.
So Daniella quickly rode Dreamfire towards Dragonstone's Dragon Mountain. The terrain there is complex, and Vermithrax and Silver Wing also reside there.
Hopefully, Glutton's arrogance would attract the attention of these two Dragons and make them act, which would be enough to drive away this damned old Dragon.
Furthermore, the wind near Dragon Mountain was relatively strong, and no thick clouds had formed, which also kept Daenerys and Dreamfire's vision unrestricted, allowing them to clearly see Glutton at all times.
Unfortunately, Daenerys and Dreamfire had already dragged Glutton around Dragon Mountain several times, but the Dragons supporting them still had not arrived.
"Damn Daemon! He's out carousing at a time like this."
Viserys, seeing no sign of the Dragon Bloodworm Caraxes for a long time, knew that his good brother must have gone carousing somewhere again, so his heart full of worry instantly turned into a surge of anger towards Daemon.
At the same time, the idea of riding a Dragon again finally became firm in Viserys's heart. He did not want to be helpless and hide in a cave like this when his loved ones faced danger in the future, unable to take any action.
What Daenerys did not expect was that as she rode Dreamfire to skim low over Dragon Mountain once again, a yellowish-brown Dragon suddenly lunged out, directly spewing a mouthful of scorching orange-red Dragonflame at Glutton. It made the unprepared Glutton stumble.
The enraged Glutton roared, its voice shaking the clouds apart. Then it changed direction and charged at the Dragon. The Dragon was too slow to dodge and was bitten on one of its Dragon Wingss by Glutton.
Seeing this, Daenerys rode Dreamfire to dive down quickly,
"Dragonflame!"
The sky-blue Dragonflame instantly engulfed Glutton's Dragon head. Dreamfire's momentum did not decrease, and it directly dived onto Glutton's back, its sharp Dragon claws tearing forcefully at its back.
Glutton, in pain, had to release its bite and then suddenly turned, hoping to shake Dreamfire off its back.
At this point, Dreamfire's sharp Dragon claws had already torn Glutton's back open, exposing flesh and bone. As Glutton turned, Dreamfire's Dragon claws firmly gripped Glutton's flesh.
And using the force of Glutton's turn, it left two deep, bone-exposing wounds on its back.
Finally, as it was flung off Glutton's back, it fiercely tore at one of its Dragon Wingss and brutally ripped open a gash over ten meters long.
Glutton, ignoring the bleeding on its back and the damage to its Dragon Wings, finally managed to turn around and entangle itself with Dreamfire. They used their claws to scratch each other's scales forcefully and spewed Dragonflame at each other to scorch one another.
But because Dreamfire was in an advantageous position, it was easier to exert force and dodge, gaining a slight advantage in this close-quarters battle.
