The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth.

Chapter 1018 The Story of the Gale Blade (Part 1)

"It's simple for the Dragon King to avoid the reckoning of the rules by entering the spacetime rift in the dimensional space. He just needs to avoid the record and reckoning of the Great Symphony. But also... the higher the life level, the higher the price of hiding! Hiding a bunch of civilians is not the same as hiding a Dragon King!" The Dragon King of the Tidal Waves, Che Wu, calmly stated, while also giving Grand Duke Oakrian Yaso and the other two time to digest what he had to say.

“I understand, the higher the level, the greater the cost!” Grand Duke Oakrian Yaso expressed his understanding. Although it was the Middle-earth world, the rules of Middle-earth still included the principle of conservation of energy!

"The two dragon kings of the Light Dragon Clan and the Dark Dragon Clan are already quite old. The benefits and costs of sealing themselves are disproportionate!" The voice of the Giant Dragon King Chewu of the Tidal Waves was filled with deep sorrow.

"Wait a minute? Aren't spatial rifts in dimensional spaces supposed to be devoid of time? Doesn't time there not fall within the flow of the River of Time?" Okrian Ryukin frowned. After all, once you reach the sixth rank, what you explore becomes the rules of space and time. To break free from the shackles of the sixth rank, you have to ascend to godhood!
“But the energy required to maintain vital signs and combat strength is proportional! The legacy of the Dragon God has only left us a door to the future, and the key is in our own hands…” King Chewu of the Turbulent Waves said quietly.

A gentle breeze swept across the eastern steppes of Rohan, stirring up wisps of dust and withered leaves. The ever-flowing Anduin River seemed to be telling a story forgotten by time…

……

"Is there no other way?" Che Wu, in the prime of his life, calmly looked at the two dragon kings who were already exuding the aura of old age. One was surrounded by light as bright as the sun, while the other was shrouded in mysterious darkness that seemed to devour everything.

"You should know that we have no other choice! The price is too high!" The two ancient dragon kings were shrouded in the misty dragon power, making it impossible to see their faces, but their calm and noble voices remained undisturbed.

"Can't we try other methods?" The still relatively young King Chewu of the Tidal Waves was somewhat unwilling.

"How do we try? Should we split the tribe like Asata did to use it as cover? The problem is, he's not doing it for himself!"

"Laughable Asata! Terrible acting... Civil war is civil war, why make it so fancy, with Medusa challenging him, and then a schism in the Ice Dragon Clan? Crazy!"

"Didn't that old bastard want Medusa to live? He paved the way with his own life! Making us feel like we're inferior to him!"

"Exactly! His acting...it's so fake!"

The two dragon kings' merciless mockery sounded so tragic and ironic to Che Wu, the giant dragon king of the surging waves. When had a dragon king who didn't even respect the gods ever needed to rely on clumsy acting to leave a way for his descendants?

"Alright, kid, although you are a Dragon King, you are still young, just like that kid Medusa. You shouldn't stay in this decaying era with us old guys. Go... You have already fallen in this battle! Your name will no longer appear in the Great Symphony..." The two Dragon Kings looked down at the Giant Dragon King Chewu and chuckled.

"Don't be stubborn, you know we're right! No creature can hide two Dragon Kings at their peak, we're destined to be dust of the times!"

"Don't be sad for us, we won this round!"

The two dragon kings looked at the reluctant and lingering Dragon King Che Wu and spoke calmly, as if the creature about to perish was insignificant to them. The two dragons at their peak did not care about their own lives or deaths, and their eyes were only filled with relief that their junior had escaped safely.

"Go! Don't look back! Hide yourselves! Wait for the end of this life. We won't see a world where the gods don't toy with living beings, but you can! Go see it for us, and for those who can't see it, both humans and dragons!" The two dragon kings whispered to Che Wu, the Giant Dragon King of the Tidal Waves, as if they were instructing a traveler on a long journey. At this moment, Che Wu, who was already a giant dragon king of the water element, looked helplessly at the two dragon kings like a young dragon. Although the three dragons looked at each other, fate was pulling them further and further apart... "Go! The child of the empire has arrived! It's time to end all this!" The two dragon kings smiled and nodded to Che Wu, then flapped their wings and brushed past him.

"Live on... for the sake of my fallen dragon family!"

"Roar!" A mournful dragon roar resounded throughout the heavens and earth! A tiny figure in mid-air, carrying a three-foot-long green sword, came forward to meet it.

"So it's you?" Although the two dragon kings were aggressive, their attacks all grazed past the newcomer, clearly indicating that the sea they were attacking could be filled by the Belegure Sea!

"Yes, Your Majesties! His Majesty has decided to send me!" The newcomer bowed respectfully from deep within the clouds.

"Doesn't this seem a bit fake?" the Dark Dragon King asked worriedly from the side.

Che Wu hovered quietly in the clouds, watching this bizarre scene. The two dragons and one person who had just been fighting fiercely to the death were now talking in the clouds. It was obvious that this was all just a play.

"Let's drag this out a bit, or it'll be harder to fool them!" The swordsman, carrying his longsword, looked up at the sky with concern.

"What? You also know that using that broken sword is too perfunctory?" the Light Dragon King sneered.

"Your Eastern Gale family is supposed to be a high-ranking noble family in the Lagrange Empire, right? Why are you carrying a broken steel sword? Do you believe I could kill the two of us with this thing?" The Dark Dragon King retorted, somewhat speechless. The human floating in mid-air was none other than the ancestor of Grand Duke Okrian Yasso! The first Grand Duke of the Eastern Realm!
"Kid, create some fog! Cover up some people! And make some noise!" The Light Dragon King ordered Che Wu, who had stopped in place, while reminding the two people who were chatting to pay attention to their acting.

For the water dragons, creating fog is their natural talent. Soon, a large swirling mist rose up, hanging in the sky like clouds! At the same time, the clouds in the sky were constantly being torn apart, and sword light, dragon claws, and occasional bursts of dragon breath splashed and danced from the clouds! It looked quite a lively scene from a distance.

"Long live Your Highness! Slay the dragon! Slay the dragon! Kill the traitor!" The cheers of human soldiers faintly echoed from the battlefield below. These people, kept in the dark, would never know that beneath the seemingly life-or-death struggle in the sky lay a serene and peaceful tranquility...

"Alright... that's enough! Any more and it'll be too much! This kid should have been beaten to death long ago!" As the sun rose and set, the talkative Light Dragon King finally became serious, looking solemnly at the respectful humans before him.

“Your emperor has the blood of the Dragon God, and you are a descendant of the royal family, so you are also one of our own dragons! I believe in you, and I hope that you and your descendants will not betray our trust! Please let this matter be buried forever in this era!” The Light Dragon King glanced at the Dark Dragon King and nodded slightly to the Grand Duke of the Eastern Territory.

"I will, Your Majesty! The Dragon Clan and the Empire... will remember your sacrifice..." The Grand Duke of the Eastern Territory took a deep breath to suppress the sorrow in his heart.

"Good! Good! Chewu! Our path has come to an end... Your path has just begun! Carry our strength and move forward! Let more dragons live!" Before the Giant Dragon King Chewu could speak, the bodies of the two dragons, one white and one black, began to disintegrate into light and dark particles, leaving only the two dragon kings' instructions in the air.
