Don't Mess with That Dragon-Chapter 639 - 28: Old Acquaintance
"Let's go, child. As an elder, I have been an unworthy father. Now, I must face my destiny. The feud between me and that Blue Dragon will end here. There's no need for you to avenge me; your future holds a broader life for you..."
The blond middle-aged man stood with his back to Arthur, his voice deep and somber.
The glow of Magic Power surged around Arthur's feet, eventually coalescing into a dazzling blue light, invoking the power of space, causing the space to visibly distort.
Arthur wanted to say something, but the distorted space had completely sealed his voice,
An overwhelming sense of disorientation filled his heart. He could only watch his father's towering back, as if it was blocking out the sky, facing the unknown darkness,
Standing tall, without hesitation!
This was the last time Arthur saw his father,
The next moment, the space distorted, and Arthur's figure vanished instantly.
This was a fixed teleportation Magic Array, an extremely precious Rune that only a Legendary Realm Mage who understood the Space Law could create with great effort. The blond middle-aged man had obtained this Rune from somewhere and used the only chance on Arthur.
"Take care, Arthur."
A soft whisper, the emotions in his voice felt only by himself.
Then,
Collected his emotions,
Severed the past, eyes once weary and confused, now turned incredibly sharp, gazing at the gigantic Dragon Palace Hall ahead.
Steadily walked towards the front gate of the colossal Dragon Nest Palace.
Fearless and unswerving,
Like a warrior facing the Demon Cave, aware of defeat yet still charging ahead alone, confronting the Demon God!
...
At this time,
In the south of the main city, the aftermath of previous explosions caused by blasts of flames had collapsed houses like a stack of cards, littering the ground with broken bricks, and rebar protruded from shattered concrete pillars, a scene of post-battle devastation.
Several blocks had turned to ruins, spider-web-like cracks spread across the ground, with charred craters appearing here and there.
But atop these ruins, a thick layer of ice had formed.
The cold wind howled,
Almost turning the entire southern district into a realm of winter.
Layer upon layer of ice, as hard as steel, spread out, shimmering in the sunlight.
The previous all-encompassing flames, imbued with the power of the Law of Fire, could not be extinguished by ordinary forces. Fortunately, the White Dragon appeared and used an Ice Torrent to extinguish these flames completely.
In the center of the frozen ruins in the south,
Several White Dragons hovered around, and amidst the crumbling ground, a massive block of ice stood towering on the land, with layers of icy rings radiating outward like the growth rings of a tree.
"Finally finished, it was really hard to capture!"
"Indeed, humans lack the noble hereditary talents of our Giant Dragon Race, but those who can break through and advance to the Legendary Level are truly extraordinary among countless others."
With a calm voice, snowflakes fell from the sky alongside the White Dragons' flight.
On the ground, within the massive block of ice, Law Runes flickered, faintly visible, with eerie blue lines.
And the body of the Legendary Mage was frozen within this enormous block of ice.
Mouth gaping, Magic Staff raised, all expressions frozen from the moment before being encased in ice, every subtle expression vividly preserved.
Legendary Mage,
Defeated!
...
At the same time,
In the western military camp.
At this moment, the entire military camp had been annihilated, the ground uneven, with cracks as thick as arms spreading, fracturing the land into a horrific state.
The entire camp was completely destroyed, with residual attacks even affecting the West City.
Visible shockwaves swept across, toppling housing units en masse. A huge pit formed around the military camp, with a delta of debris spreading outward on the ground.
The elite soldiers within the camp were scattered around.
At the center, Rodney's scale armor was shattered, with blood seeping through the crushed scales and flesh, and the several-ton iron hammer in his hand was shattered, leaving only its handle. The man, one of the three main generals, was sitting on the ground, gasping for air heavily.
"This battle, I took the advantage; otherwise, you might not have lost."
A gruff voice resonated in the air.
Within the military camp, it was Rodney's home turf.
The massive momentum gathered within the army, from the same root as Rodney's Extraordinary Cultivation System, not only didn't suppress but greatly increased his power.
And in this environment, the enemy's Law and Fighting Qi were suppressed.
This battle,
Was unfair.
"A loss is a loss... in a life or death battle... fairness means nothing..."
Not far away,
In the center of the shattered ground, a burly man lay broken and bruised, breath weak, his injuries so extensive that his original appearance was almost unrecognizable.
Only a sliver of breath remained within, his last bit of resistance gone.
Though defeated,
This Legendary Warrior felt nothing but boundless joy.
How many years had it been,
Since advancing to Legendary, he had never experienced such an exhilarating, intense fight, reliving the unyielding heart of passion he held when he was once weak.
Those long-lost memories rekindled the fighting spirit he had long forgotten.
Lying on the ground, the burly man,
Lacked any strength,
Calmly closed his eyes, fainted away.
Legendary Warrior,
Defeated!
...
In the main city, along the streets,
The black-uniformed Beastman Law Enforcers were capturing or executing the chaotic elements, suppressing all disturbances.
Esna, who was the only one to escape further,
Was now cornered in the street by the Jackal Wolf People genius Meng Bi, severely injured after several rounds of fearsome sword qi slashes, captured by the Beastman Law Enforcers.
In the main city,
The assault was largely suppressed.
The only place where battle flames still burned was the Giant Dragon Palace.
BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!
A barrage of explosions, Fighting Qi swept across like a gusty hurricane, shattering bricks and stones layer by layer, blasting through the air, strong gusts striking, the shattered floors and stones flew wildly in the fierce Fighting Qi tempest.
The Golden Guards' figures were blown away under the intense attack, their armor shattered.
Seeing the expressions of the Golden Guards behind change, ready to surge forward again,
Just then,
"Stand back, leave this to me."
A voice both familiar and strange to the blond middle-aged man came forth.
Rustle!
The Golden Guards stepped aside, clearing a path.
A figure appeared in front of him.
Looking at the blond middle-aged man, a complex expression filled his face.
"Edward, after eighteen years, I never thought I'd see you again in such circumstances..."
In the voice,
Complexity, sighs,
Thoughts tangled.
The middle-aged man named Edward stared intently at the newcomer, disbelief in his eyes:
"Is it you, Valen... Captain?"
...
ps: It's been almost a year since writing this book, and I've forgotten a lot of the character settings from the beginning. Recently, I began wrapping up the storyline and only then did I go back to glance at the directory to finally remember their names again.
Speaking of which, among the books about Blue Dragons in Qidian, they either have bad endings or get discontinued, only this half-dead salted fish of an author keeps persevering with updates.
ε=(´ο｀*))) sigh.
