After work, start to speedrun the other world-Chapter 181 - 55 Let’s Group Up_2

...

...

Afternoon.

The sky was dim.

Siegfried left Sky City alone and headed to a spreading snow plain, waiting for himself to completely lose reason.

He couldn’t stay in his own country, otherwise, upon transforming into a dragon, he would indiscriminately destroy Sky City.

Even if he could be successfully slain, Sky City might fall during the battle, resulting in countless deaths and injuries.

So he had to leave.

The cold wind was biting, sweeping across the endless snow plains. Siegfried sat on the hillside, looking at the mercenaries and several giant dragons appearing in the distance.

As night fell, he increasingly felt... the call, and a vague figure of a woman appeared in his vision.

That was the legendary Creation Witch.

Meanwhile.

Elsewhere.

"The aura is getting more dangerous," the Dragoness said, hand on her hip, blue hair fluttering in the wind. She looked towards Ahtal and asked,

"Are you sure you want to participate in the expedition to subdue Siegfried?"

It wasn’t that she doubted Ahtal’s abilities, but it was a clear fact that, despite being a renowned hero, Ahtal’s magic power was hardly enough to sustain high-intensity fighting.

Releasing a few high-intensity magics from a distance would probably exhaust his magic power, leaving nothing for subsequent battles.

In response,

Xi Mu thought for a moment and seriously said, "So I have a favor to ask of you."

"What is it?" The Dragoness took a step back, feeling this human’s gaze was up to no good, and then her bad premonition was confirmed.

Xi Mu said, "Let me ride."

"Dream on!" The Dragoness rolled her eyes, "Dragon Knights aren’t allowed to have partners of the opposite sex. The idea of finding a Dragoness to ride by day and continue riding at night has been expressly forbidden. It’s not possible anymore."

Xi Mu looked puzzled.

"In the past, it was common for dragons and their knights to fall in love, causing their husbands, or wives to discover they had been cuckolded," the Dragoness explained.

"So in the Dragon Kingdom, ’opposite-sex’ Dragon Knights are expressly forbidden. Only male with male, or female with female may assist each other in becoming Dragon Knights."

She chuckled smugly.

"So your wanting to ride me is illegal."

"Just because the genders are the same, doesn’t mean there can’t be affairs?" Xi Mu questioned, leaving the Dragoness silent for a moment.

Then she turned her head away.

"The rate of affairs has decreased, the law does have an effect."

"Well, then I can only ask my partner for help," Xi Mu said disappointedly, shaking his head. He turned to the little mare beside him, reached out to stroke her neck, and smiled very gently.

Seeing this, the Dragoness suddenly said,

"Your partner seems to be female too, right?"

"Yes," Xi Mu nodded. He valued the little mare more than most beautiful female NPCs, after all, ordinary female NPCs just needed to be wooed, and after taking away the quest item, there was not much interaction.

But the little mare was different; she could be ridden and accompany the player all the way to the end game.

If one didn’t take the Ashen Path, the little mare would also stay by the player’s side after the game was cleared.

"She... can transform into a human, right?" The Dragoness approached the little mare, scrutinized her seriously, and kindly warned,

"Humans mating with monsters is much more serious than marrying a dragon."

"Can my partner transform into a human?" Xi Mu asked curiously, only to see the little mare shake her head frantically, completely denying her ability to transform into a human.

"That is quite unfortunate,"

Not unfortunate at all.

The little mare scratched the ground with her hoof, then glared at the Dragoness. How annoying this creature was; whether she could transform into a human was none of the Dragoness’s business.

If she accidentally became pregnant, could the Dragoness help her raise the child?

"My partner is probably... a rather special monster," Xi Mu laughed, then mounted the mare, took out the Great Sword of Death, and looked towards the horizon.

The last ray of sunlight dimmed.

And as day and night completed their switch, darkness completely enveloped the world, a fear beyond words spreading rapidly with the dark, as if an evil dragon had opened its jaws, ready to devour this world.

No... it was an evil dragon.

On the distant hillside, the being that was Siegfried changed. He was collapsing, transforming, like a monster was burrowing out of Siegfried’s skin, ready to fully descend upon this world.

Murderous intent... a brutal aura spread, like nuclear radiation.

Soon after, any trace of Siegfried completely vanished.

What appeared before the people was a monster, not the evil dragon of their imaginations. Its forelimbs were incredibly thick, seemingly human hands.

Though it possessed the breath of a dragon, dragon scales, dragon eyes, it still retained a body shape close to that of a human.

"Hey, hey, hey... something’s not right here, is it?" The Dragon Mother instinctively backed away, her pupils constricting as every hair on her body stood on end.

"Is this even a dragon?!" She instinctively wanted to leave, then suddenly stopped, as a beast devoid of reason was not enough to frighten her.

She could fight.

"Let’s go!" A calm male voice suddenly rang out, and then the Dragon Mother felt her long hair grabbed, and she was flung backwards.

With the scenery in her eyes reversing.

"Boom!" Light suddenly engulfed the world, the spreading shock wave compressing the air, looking from afar like an inverted bowl pressed into the ground.

What happened?

The Dragon Mother was stunned, but the pain from her scalp reminded her that her hair was still being yanked.

"Don’t pull, it hurts, it hurts." She clutched her head, turning to look at Ahtal on the eight-legged horse, and then she was truly let go.

And she went from flying to falling.

"Ahh ahh ahh... You’re not supposed to let go immediately!" The Dragon Mother screamed as she crashed into a snow pile, struggling to crawl out.

She discovered that the situation had changed dramatically.

There stood an evil dragon, close to human form, with red scales, on a land oozing with lava.

He held a screaming human in one hand, stuffing them into his mouth of sharp fangs, and as his jaws clamped shut, blood splattered.

Then with a wave of his hand, the fierce storm he stirred up shredded the approaching mercenaries into bloody mist.

Slaughter... more accurately described as butchery.

Not for the sake of feeding, purely for the joy of killing, attacking all life indiscriminately.

The Dragon Mother instinctively backed away, that malice targeting all life, the wild aura, seemingly prepared to target dragons as well.

And at that moment.

The other dragons had already retaliated, surrounding Siegfried and breathing out their Dragon Breath.

From the Red Dragon, its Dragon Breath.

From the Thunder Dragon, its Dragon Breath.

From the Wind Dragon, its Dragon Breath.

From the Earth Dragon, its Dragon Breath.

Under this collision of compound elemental Dragon Breaths, horrific heat and light spread, the thick snow blown away, then turned into steam.

The scorching air currents swept through like a tsunami.

However.

The Dragon Mother still saw those unnervingly violent beastly eyes in the center of the explosion; he was still alive, undiminished in the slightest.

"Hey, they’ve engaged!" A familiar male voice came through, and she instinctively looked over to see Ahtal, dual blades in hand, charging towards Siegfried.

"Don’t dawdle like a dame!"

"I am a dame!" The Dragon Mother shouted angrily, hesitating a moment as she watched Siegfried wreak havoc.

Then she charged forward.

In truth, she had gone through a fine education; no matter what, she was a Duke’s daughter, but... her real battle experience was lacking.

If combat wasn’t dominated by brute strength, then it was with family as her support; this was the first time she faced an opponent that truly frightened her. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

A moment later.

The Dragon Mother who had charged out was flung back even faster, like a steel nail hammered into the mountainside, her buttocks half exposed, her long legs wrapped in white silk frantically flailing.
