When Blakespear took out the dragon egg, Nie Yan's gaze fell on the black egg. He could almost feel the small life stirring within, its strong and powerful pulse, brimming with formidable energy.

*It's a dragon egg, and a top-quality one at that, even stronger than a Golden Earth Dragon!* The thought flashed through Nie Yan's mind. When he heard the words Darkwing Dragon, he was shocked. It was actually a Darkwing Dragon! He hadn't expected it to be a high-level dragon!

How could anything Blakespear brought out be inferior?

Among all flying mounts, the most common were bird-type mounts. Bird-type mounts were usually of a lower grade, with only a few higher-level ones like Thunderbirds and Phoenixes. There were also some more peculiar mounts like Manticores and Wind Serpents. Among all mounts, the highest-ranking were undoubtedly dragons. Of all the dragons, the Golden Earth Dragon was considered fairly ordinary. Even after consuming Mutated Energy Crystals, it would only be considered mid-tier at best. But the Darkwing Dragon was definitely a high-level dragon.

Among the top dragon breeds, including Holy Dragons, Black Dragons, and Magic Dragons, the Darkwing Dragon was one of them.

Even the Legendary Barbarian Swordsman Blakespear wanted to hatch it as a mount! One could imagine its preciousness!

This was a reward for killing the Legendary Necromancer Nadak. Nie Yan was naturally deserving of it.

Nie Yan carefully cradled the Darkwing Dragon egg in his hands.

"I don't know when it will hatch, but I sense that it's not far off. I hope it will lead you to glory," Blakespear said.

Through the Darkwing Dragon egg, Nie Yan could vaguely see the outline of the Darkwing Dragon's hatchling. Dark light bloomed, making the living room's light and shadows blurred, dreamlike.

"Thank you, respected Mr. Blakespear," Nie Yan said respectfully. In his past life, very few players possessed flying mounts. For the sake of a flying mount, how many people fought tooth and nail, how many teams had internal strife that led to their disbandment!

In his previous life, when Nie Yan saw someone in Calore City's square summon a flying mount and take off, he could only look on with envy. Things like flying mounts were unattainable luxuries for him. He never expected that in this life, he would actually obtain such a high-level flying mount.

How could Nie Yan not be excited!

It was because he had lived two lives that he understood the preciousness of a flying mount!

Nie Yan put the Darkwing Dragon egg into his mount space. He didn't know how long it would take for the egg to hatch, but once it did, it would undoubtedly be the overlord of the skies.

The moment Nie Yan put the Darkwing Dragon egg into his bag, a system prompt suddenly rang out.

System Announcement: Player Nie Yan has obtained a flying mount, automatically triggering the aerial mount system. The aerial mount system will be opened in two days.

System Announcement: System updating in progress. This system update will take 3 days and will not affect normal gameplay...

System Announcement: Skill adjustments. Class change quest difficulty reduced by 11%. Free skill book drop rate increased by 13%...

...

Nie Yan hadn't expected such an accident. He recalled that there was indeed a system update like this in his previous life. Since it was just a few system announcements, he had long forgotten the content of the announcements, only remembering that a player had triggered the aerial mount system, and then aerial mounts were opened up.

He didn't expect that he would be the one to trigger the aerial mount system this time.

The Niu Ren Tribe's guild chat instantly boiled over.

"Guild Leader Nie Yan triggered the aerial mount system?"

"Damn, the system is adjusting. Guild Leader Nie Yan is too awesome, he got the first aerial mount!"

"What aerial mount did Guild Leader Nie Yan get?"

"Don't know!"

...

The official website also exploded. Everyone was discussing what aerial mount Nie Yan had obtained and the content of this system update. The appearance of aerial mounts made players speculate endlessly, imagining the scenes of aerial combat in the future.

"I heard aerial mounts are different from ordinary mounts. If an aerial mount dies once, it can't be resurrected."

The fact that aerial mounts could not be resurrected after dying once made the players tremble with fear. If someone worked so hard to get an aerial mount, but it died and couldn't be resurrected, that would be too much of a loss!

"I heard Faith also has a servant system. Servants also can't be resurrected if they die."

This was Faith's rule, and there was nothing that could be done about it, because aerial mounts and servants were too strong. Even the most ordinary bird-type aerial mounts had powerful combat abilities. Diving down from the sky to attack a player, ordinary players would rarely be able to withstand it. Therefore, the main brain gave a limit, that is, any aerial mount only had one life. Under normal circumstances, they could not be resurrected after death, unless they could obtain extremely rare items such as resurrection crystals, then they could have one or two chances of resurrection.

In addition to aerial mounts, there was also a servant system. The guild leaders of every guild level eight and above had the opportunity to recruit some powerful servants. For example, the Ten Holy Knights Legend quest Nie Yan had previously received. As long as he rescued those trapped holy knights, he could make Kales become his servant!

Kales was an almost legendary figure, an incredibly powerful existence!

Servants could even recruit powerhouses like Kales. One could imagine that if Kales could be resurrected an infinite number of times, then all cities would be bombed into pieces under his legendary magic.

Only having one life meant a greater challenge.

Once aerial mounts were opened, many things in Nie Yan's memory changed. Even the skills were modified. History had once again deviated from its track. All of this was uncontrollable.

History was heading in an unpredictable direction. Nie Yan could only use his strength to control his own destiny!

The fact that Nie Yan obtained an aerial mount suddenly attracted the attention of all players. No matter where they were, players were discussing this matter. The challenge posts from Kuang Shen and Duo Luo on the official website had sunk to the bottom. They couldn't be found even if one searched for them. Kuang Shen and Duo Luo were like forgotten figures in the corner.

"What aerial mount did you get?" Guo Huai sent a message to Nie Yan.

"There's no aerial mount. It's just a dragon egg. It hasn't hatched yet. I don't know how long I'll have to wait for it to hatch," Nie Yan said.

"A dragon egg? It seems you're going to have another dragon," Guo Huai said. He thought that the Darkwing Dragon and the Golden Earth Dragon were of the same level. In fact, the two were worlds apart.

Nie Yan smiled. As for the Darkwing Dragon, he would talk about it after it hatched.

"What about Kuang Shen and Duo Luo? The discussions about them seem to have decreased a lot. Everyone is talking about aerial mounts."

"Leave them hanging there. When I'm interested, I'll play with them again. Let Shui Se, Dao Guang, and the others do what they need to do."
