Chapter 109 Mythical Dragon Breath, Ancient Spirit, Deya’s New Trump Card!
“Wow wow wow——”
The dog-headed people screamed and waved broken sticks, spears and other weapons in their hands, rushing towards Alfred and his group of paladins.
These dog-headed people are used to bullying the weak. When they meet someone weaker than themselves, they become extremely cruel. When they meet someone stronger than themselves, they will immediately tuck their tails between their legs and behave like dogs.
But there is only one exception.
That is, when the gnolls are ruled by the dragon, they will become fearless and brave, and even if they encounter an invincible enemy, their inner blood will be stimulated.
More than twenty swamp slaad dragons also joined the battlefield under the orders of the Dragon Feast members.
These "dragons" are like giant toads, with their bodies swollen and hopping as they walk.
These second-ring creatures combine the strengths of the Slaadi Red Toad and the Dragon, with thick skin and flesh.
The acid they spit out of their mouths is also poisonous, and they tend to appear in groups, making them extremely troublesome creatures for any adventuring team.
The main reason is that it is too fleshy and difficult to kill!
Faced with the fierce siege by a dozen members of the Dragon Feast Cult, more than twenty toad dragons, and more than a hundred kobolds, the Paladin team remained fearless.
They stepped on the holy halo, prayed loudly, blessed their swords and armor, and fought together with the army of humans and monsters.
The Ringwraith Knight, who was the cavalry commander, summoned three-ring mummies and two-ring zombies, and together with the zombies brought by Deya, formed a small team, charging left and right among the enemies.
The Weapon Master's Ringwraith Knight even abandoned his warhorse. He was covered in a black robe, with a ghostly figure, floating forward on the ground.
The shield in his left hand blocked all kinds of weapons and poisonous arrows that were attacking him, and the long sword in his right hand was like a beast in an empty space, killing indiscriminately.
No matter how vicious those kobolds are, they are no match for the Ringwraith Knights.
Whenever a kobold was killed, its corpse would quickly get up and become a slave of the Ringwraith Knights.
The Ringwraith Knights do not have complete logical thinking, but they have the instinct to fight.
It ignored the swamp slaad dragons that had thick skin and flesh, were extremely resistant to swords and were difficult to kill, and just wanted to cause trouble for these gnolls.
Once all the kobolds are killed, there will be hundreds of zombies left. They can be handed over to another Ringwraith Knight for command. The pressure of numbers can be greatly alleviated by the increase or decrease of the number of zombies.
Compared to the chaotic fighting on this small battlefield, the battle between Druid Upton and Dragon Vein Warlock Andy on the other side was even more fierce and brutal!
"Roar----"
Upton transformed into an owl beast and leaped high, roaring ferociously.
The owl beast's giant claws slapped towards Andy with unstoppable force!
The two six-ring warriors used their own mythical powers right from the start.
【Balance Watch. Nature's Wrath】
At this moment, Upton seemed to have merged with the entire rainforest. With a strike of its giant claws, the power of nature was enhanced, and even a huge rock would be shattered by it.
In Andy's sight, Upton's figure disappeared at this time, and his perception completely lost its effectiveness.
He only felt that he was in a vast forest, alone and helpless, and the whole forest was against him and was his enemy.
What he was facing was not just an owl beast, but the wrath of the entire forest!
Dragon Vein Warlock Andy roared!
His body suddenly began to grow larger, from a height of over one meter to a sturdy man of nearly three meters tall.
The warlock's skin turned into a hellish red, like a burning furnace, and his swollen muscles had an extremely explosive and oppressive feeling.
The power of myth. The will of chaos!
But it wasn't over yet. Between the devil horns on Andy's forehead, a dragon horn grew out. A dragon tail also grew behind him. His skin turned into densely packed scales that looked like dragon scales!
[Will of Chaos. Power of Dragon]!
"boom----"
The bear paw of the owl beast, which was powerful enough to smash huge rocks, slapped Andy away and he fell to the ground with a loud bang, which created a crack and a deep pit in the ground.
Andy, transformed into a 'dragon demon', crawled out of the deep pit, his scales were broken and blood was on the corners of his mouth.
But as a warlock, he managed to withstand the full-strength attack of a six-ring druid transformed into an owl beast and not die. It's simply terrifying!
"It's my turn!"
With the blessing of mythical power and the secret magic of the Dragon Feast Cult, Andy, who had transformed into a dragon demon, let out a hideous laugh.
[Sixth Ring Spell. Sun Ray]
A dazzling ray shot out from his hand, engulfing the owl beast that Upton had transformed into.
The owl roared angrily. When the rays disappeared, almost all of its hair was burned off, and its body was covered with burn marks. Its breathing became rapid.
Whether they are wizards or warlocks, they all have spell slot restrictions and can only cast a limited number of spells each day.
These spellcasters are not as durable as those in physical professions, and their numbers are few, but they still occupy the top of each major profession.
From this we can see how powerful the spell is, how it can be broken in all kinds of battlefield situations, and how it has unparalleled destructive power!
The injured Upton transformed into an eagle, let out a loud cry, and his sharp claws broke through the air and grabbed the dragon demon's eyeball.
Andy, who had transformed into a dragon demon, made a spellcasting gesture again.
[Sixth Ring Spell. Blazing Flame Empowerment]
Fierce flames appeared around him and surrounded him.
The eagle's sharp claws touched the magic flame, and the intense pain made the eagle scream again, and its claws were burned and deformed.
Andy laughed out loud.
Although he used two sixth-ring spell slots, he had already injured the druid and temporarily prevented him from getting close to him.
Then what comes next is the warlock’s bombardment!
Andy used various dragon vein warlock spells. There were only two or three types of spells in total, but they were all offensive spells.
Upton screamed in agony from the spell bombardment and was covered in wounds.
As a druid, he is also a spellcaster, but his forest spells are just restrained by these dragon vein spells.
He himself didn't know any high-level spells, so facing this kind of warlock turret, he could only avoid its edge and look for opportunities.
As a spellcaster, the warlock is not suitable for the mythical power of 'chaotic will'.
However, the unique secret techniques of the Dragon Feast Cult, combined with the power of chaotic will, are surprisingly powerful!
Upton didn't expect that this six-ring warlock was so strong. He was completely suppressed. It turned out that spellcasters should not be underestimated!
Just when Upton used the power of myth, the dozen or so members of the Dragon Feast Cult also used the dragon-like [Power of Dragon]!
Fine scales grew on their bodies, and they grew dragon tails, dragon claws and dragon horns, as if they had turned into real humanoid dragons.
The sudden transformation put Alfred's team of paladins under great pressure.
"careful!"
A member of the Dragon Feast Cult rushed into the crowd, and the dragon claws in his hands directly tore open the armor of a paladin and pierced his abdomen.
Alfred's eyes were bloodshot, he roared, and the sacred sword light slashed with a move of "Supreme Slash"!
The grinning member of the Dragon Feast Cult was only happy for a second before he let out a scream and his arm was chopped off!
Seeing this, the two Ringwraith Knights also rushed into the group of Dragon Feast members.
As a sixth-ring heroic template undead creature, even without mythical power, these members of the Dragon Feast Cult who are less than sixth rings are still no match for it even after they are transformed into dragons.
However, as they transformed into dragons, these people's basic abilities such as attack, defense, and agility increased greatly, allowing them to delay the Ringwraith Knights for as long as possible.
This put more pressure on the Paladin team, and the injuries began to increase. Even the Paladin who had just been pierced in the abdomen was in a critical condition.
Just as Alfred thought, when the number of people reaches a certain level and a melee occurs, even those who are strong may be ambushed and injured.
Characters at the sixth and seventh rings will also have their mythical power consumed by those who are fearless and unafraid of death.
The power of an individual can never compare to that of a collective.
Unless you reach 8 rings or above, you can be alone against an entire army!
Deya was in no mood to pay attention to the battlefield at this time, as his ritual had reached its final stage.
A dozen or so gnolls finally noticed Deya. They screamed and raised their weapons to chop at Deya.
Deya looked at the group of gnolls calmly. He made a spell-casting gesture and raised his hand to point.
[You used the 4th level spell 'Doom Swarm']
"Buzz buzz buzz————" Beside Deya, there was a buzzing sound as if thousands of insects flapping their wings.
These bugs look like small flying beetles with sharp teeth.
A black spot appeared like a storm, submerging all the gnolls.
The swarm of doom insects are just like the scarabs in The Mummy Returns. After they pounce on the kobolds, they drill into their skin, pores, and orifices.
Bumps and protrusions appeared on the skin of these dog-headed men.
Those lumps are all bugs that swim inside their bodies and eat their internal organs clean in the blink of an eye.
One after another, the mummies fell to the ground, their deaths looked extremely horrific.
'This spell is suitable for mummification.'
Deya sighed.
Necromancer is extremely evil in all aspects.
"Click————"
The huge dragon skeleton suddenly moved.
"flutter----"
Pale flames burned in the empty dragon eyes.
Deya's ritual was finally completed.
The huge bone dragon let out a dull but loud dragon roar into the sky, and the heavy dragon power instantly covered the swamp!
Deya's right eye once again burned with a pale flame, which was the symbol of the Son of the Dark Moon.
He couldn't hide it, nor did he intend to hide it!
“Ang ang ang——————”
The bone dragon flapped its wings and soared into the sky, carrying the figure in the wizard's robe, and leaped into the sky in an instant.
Flames burned between bones and a giant dragon soared in the sky.
The swamp, which was caught in the turmoil of war, was quiet for a moment.
"Captain, that is..."
The Paladin squad, which was gathered together in formation to protect its injured members, raised their heads and looked towards the sky.
They saw the bone dragon, saw the figure standing at the dragon's head, and saw the pale flame burning in the figure's right eye.
Fanny shuddered all over, and suddenly thought of the tragic scene in the World Recollection where she was killed by the army of undead.
Now seeing the bone dragon soaring in the sky again, she inexplicably felt a bit of PTSD.
"I saw it. Don't think too much about it. That bone dragon is our comrade now. Let's get rid of these enemies first!"
Alfred shouted in a deep voice.
The Paladin team did not regard Deyad as the Son of Dark Moon from seven hundred years ago in the World Remembrance.
However, due to Deya's current form, they also associated Deya with the Dark Moon Goddess.
Could it be that Deya is a believer of the Dark Moon Goddess? Could it be that he is the 'Son of the Dark Moon' of this era?
Various ideas popped into their minds.
However, the enemies still before them did not give them much time to think, so they could only give up thinking temporarily and continue fighting.
"Where did this necromancer come from? How dare you steal the dragon from our Dragon Feast Cult!"
Andy, who was beating the druid Upton, saw the bone dragon flying up. He first cursed in anger, and then turned into horror.
When he saw the figure on the dragon's head and the iconic pale fire, he subconsciously thought of the 'immortal king' in the world's memory!
But soon, Andy comforted himself that this was definitely not the Son of Dark Moon.
If it were him, I would have no chance of survival now and would have seen countless armies of undead.
But even so, Andy backed down.
Anyone who can use a dragon's corpse to create a bone dragon must be a necromancer above the sixth ring.
Moreover, the speed at which the other party created undead creatures was so fast that it was beyond imagination.
Although he had the upper hand in the battle with the druid, his mythical power had been almost consumed.
If he were to fight another six-ring necromancer, he would most likely die here.
Escape first and find Lord Andrew, then find a way to get the body back!
[Red Copper Corpse Dragon]
[Level: 71 (Seventh Ring)]
[Skills: Tail Sweep, Dragon Claw, Bite, Acidic Breath, Slow Breath, Stone Shaping, Turning Stone into Mud, Turning Mud into Stone]
Deya looked at the display on the panel and found out that this giant dragon was a copper dragon when it was alive.
The real dragon's might covered the entire earth. Under this terrifying might that was no different from that of a real dragon, both the gnolls and the toad dragons were so frightened that they lay on the ground and dared not move.
Deya ignored the monsters that surrendered to the dragon. The dragon's body fell from the sky, and before a member of the Dragon Feast Cult could react, the dragon's claws tore his body apart!
After killing one member of the Dragon Feast Cult, Deya was about to kill the second one, but then he had a sudden thought and sensed something unusual from the bone dragon's perception.
He immediately ordered a Ringwraith Knight to step forward and cut open the chest of the dead Dragon Feast member. On his chest was a pure white crystal.
Deya summoned a black crow to grab the crystal and put it into his hands.
[Dragon Feast Crystal: The essence extracted from the flesh, blood and soul of a dragon]
[Use it to grant the dragon a short-term mythical power]
Seeing the prompts and introduction on the panel, Deya's breath was held. He quickly ordered the Ringwraith Knights and Bone Dragons to start slaughtering the members of the Dragon Feast Cult!
In the previous battle with the Paladin Squad, nearly half of these members died.
Now, under the crazy killing of Deya's bone dragon and the Ringwraith Knights, in just a few breaths, all the members of the Dragon Feast Order who had not reached the sixth ring were killed.
The Ringwraith Knights dissected their bodies one by one and delivered the Dragon Feast Crystals to Deya.
Only members of the cult who are above the third ring have the Dragon Feast Crystal.
These crystals can only allow the dragon to gain mythical power for a short period of time. Even if all the crystals in his hand are added together, it can only last for nine seconds.
But even if it can only last for nine seconds, the mythical power displayed by a dragon with the strength it had in life is definitely powerful beyond imagination!
This can totally serve as a new trump card!
Deya looked at Andy, the dragon vein sorcerer, with fiery eyes.
If he is a six-ringed member of the Dragon Feast Cult, the crystals on his body will definitely be more effective!
Thinking of this, Deya used all the Dragon Feast Crystals without hesitation.
Suddenly,
The ancient will descended upon this swamp and merged with the bone dragon under Deya's feet.
Flesh and scales seemed to have grown back on the body of the dead copper dragon.
The ancient will and the original dragon might merged with the breath of death of the Dark Moon. The extremely terrifying dragon roar blew through the swamp and forest like a storm, and resounded in the sky!
When the dragon demon Andy saw this scene, he was terrified.
"Ancient spirit? Mythical power?!"
How is it possible? How could a bone dragon, an undead creature, have mythical powers!
Without thinking, he turned around and ran away.
With the same number of rings, the dragon has power far exceeding any other race at the same level!
The bone dragon opened its mouth, and powerful magic and mythical power condensed in it!
Deya waved and fell——
"Dragon Flame!"
The dragon's breath, which possesses strong corrosive power, sprays towards the sky!
[Seven-ring dragon breath. Ancient spirit. Acid breath]!
