Ember Dragon

Chapter 797 The intersection of fate

Looking at Singo who was cut into two pieces, Mantou first smiled subconsciously with gloating, and then made a sad gesture and stretched out his hand: "Xingo, I will avenge you--"

Unexpectedly, a translucent figure floated out from the opponent's body: "Stop being sentimental, if you keep going like this we're all going to be wiped out!"

"You're not dead?"

"The Soul Amulet allows the soul to exist for fifteen minutes after the body dies. I didn't expect to use it so soon."

"Wait—turn your head away!"

"Damn it!" Mantou tilted his head subconsciously.

A ray of light filled with the breath of death brushed past his ear and hit a human not far away. The human's flesh and blood shrank instantly, turning him into a skinny mummy.

He turned his head and saw the ancient green dragon flapping its wings, suspended in mid-air, surrounded by a storm filled with acid and poisonous fog. Its narrow, needle-like vertical pupils were filled with the faint light of necromancy.

Beside her, six balls of ghostly fire kept swimming around, like terrifying ghosts, ready to devour people's souls at any time.

Green dragons are natural spellcasters, and Ulrichia, known as the "Poisonous Emerald," is undoubtedly the best among them.

As an ancient dragon, she is proficient in spells of necromancy and illusion, and possesses attainments no less than that of a great wizard.

Ulrichia stretched out her claws into the void, took out a scepter made of bones and skulls, and waved it casually.

In an instant, countless evil spirits poured out from the blood pool, uttering miserable wails, and rushed towards humans. These civilians, who had never suffered before, were possessed by the evil spirits and turned into Ulrichia's puppets.

These possessed humans now had red eyes and saliva dripping from the corners of their mouths. They pounced on their former comrades and friends almost frantically, biting each other's necks and cheeks under their horrified gazes, biting off large pieces of bloody flesh.

"Don't come over here!"

"You, if you come any closer I'm going to shoot!"

"who are you?"

"Get off him!"

Calls like these are heard constantly.

The end of these possessed humans is often that they are shot to death by their panicked comrades, but the evil spirits escape from the body of the previous host, smiling eerily, and run towards the next target.

Mantou loaded the enchanted bullets and shot one of the evil spirits dead with a bang, wailing:

"How do we fight this ancient dragon boss? It has control and damage, its physical and magical resistances are maxed out, and it can also create minions. There's no way to fight it—"

Singo, who had transformed into a soul, took out a dagger and stabbed the oncoming evil spirit, turning it into spiritual fragments in an instant and burning all over.

"Now there is only one word: delay! According to the intelligence I have learned, our large force will be able to attack the city soon.

You lead her out of the dragon breeding ground and into the outer city, then we can cooperate with the Mechanicus fleet to blast this ancient dragon into pieces!"

"it is good!"

Players including Mantou, Xia Ye Qiu Yu, Tian Sheng Zhan Kuang and others responded in unison.

Xia Ye Qiu Yu stared at the ancient green dragon in the distance and sneered deliberately: "That stupid green dragon is your offspring? It feels good to burn his heart."

"So it's you! How dare you attack the people of Tiamat, you arrogant bastard!"

Ulrichia's eyes burst into uncontrollable rage, and her gaze towards the dragon warlock was filled with anger and hatred.

In an instant, several rays filled with necromancy energy shot out, each carrying a destructive force enough to kill a mortal.

But Xia Ye Qiuyu stretched out one hand, and dragon flame gushed out from his palm, forming a thick wall of energy in mid-air.

"boom!"

Two completely different energies collided with each other, causing a violent explosion. The overflowing undead energy affected the surrounding humans, causing them to age rapidly.

Xia Ye Qiuyu did not dare to delay at all. Her eyes flashed and she waved her right hand. The flames tore through the space like a violent beast, creating a crack leading to the surface.

Under the influence of the altar, long-distance space teleportation is impossible, but penetrating the ground is still possible.

"let's go!"

Xia Ye Qiuyu flew directly in, and the natural war maniac jumped up and went into the flame portal.

Players such as Dawei Tianlong and Langli Baitiao also jumped in one after another.

Ulrichia was furious. She flapped her wings violently and rushed towards the portal with tremendous arrogance and terrifying storm.

Under the anger of the ancient green dragon, the entire cave was shaking continuously, and debris kept falling from the top of the cave, causing the human sacrifices to panic and run around.

But at this moment, Ulrichia no longer saw those insignificant sacrifices. At this moment, she only wanted to do one thing.

- Kill all those imperial people who dared to kill Grutal and blaspheme Tiamat, leaving no one alive!
"You can't escape—"

Looking at the ancient green dragon that was rushing towards him madly, Mantou was covered in cold sweat and rushed towards the portal in a hurry.

"Wait for me!"

At the last moment when the green dragon's fangs were about to bite him, Mantou's body passed through the portal and appeared on the surface of Linying City's main urban area.

"Who are you and why did you break into the main city? The fighting outside the city is intense, and you actually fled here!"

"No, that's an intruder!"

"Capture them! Execute them if necessary!"

Seeing this, the wyvern cavalry in the city waved their weapons and swooped down towards the crowd with a whistling sound.

"court death!"

The natural war maniac stood in front of everyone, roared to the sky, raised the battle axe above his head, and swung it violently. The huge force split the oncoming two-legged dragon into two halves, and blood splattered everywhere.

"How dare you, a madman, kill the guards of Her Majesty the Dragon Queen!"

"Don't show mercy, kill them all! Use their blood to sacrifice to the great dragon mother!"

The guards shouted loudly, riding various dragon beasts, holding weapons high, rushing in from all directions and surrounding them.

Xia Ye Qiu Yu looked around calmly and pointed to the north: "Let's flee to the north and meet up with the main force!"

Several flame rays shot out from her fingertips, instantly piercing through the Lion Dragon Knight who was in the front. All the hair on his body was burning, and he died with a shrill wail.

Immediately afterwards, two top melee players, Dawei Tianlong and Tiansheng Zhan Kuang, rushed to the north.

"How dare you stop me, you bastard!"

The nearly six-meter-tall bald monk roared angrily and swung his casserole-pot-sized fist like a sledgehammer, ruthlessly smashing all living things in front of him into pieces of flesh and blood.

The natural war maniac also let out a loud war roar, swung up the blood-stained long-handled battle axe, transformed himself into a mobile meat grinder, and set off a storm of killing.

In just a few breaths, the northern part of the encirclement was littered with corpses and blood, and more than 20 elite members of the Dragon Worship Church fell in a pool of blood.

The other players followed behind the two, broke through the encirclement of the Dragon Worship guards, and fled towards the north of the city.

But at this moment, accompanied by a noise, the ground began to shake violently, and spider-web-like cracks appeared on the street. The cracks became larger and larger, and continued to extend in the direction of the players.

The players turned back as they ran away, their faces filled with fear and trepidation. "That's..."

"No way? Could it be——"

"boom!"

Broken stones, soil and dust rose into the sky. A huge and ferocious figure broke through the constraints of the ground, rushed out from the ground, raised its head and let out a deafening roar.

"Roar--"

"Damn Imperials!"

In the dust, two dark golden pupils flickered faintly. The murderous eyes seemed to be able to penetrate space and nail every player, making them shudder.

"That's... Lady Ulrichia!" A guard pointed at the figure in the sky and shouted in shock.

But soon, the building next to him collapsed due to the violent shaking of the ground, and the broken boulders and dust buried him instantly.

"Come on!"

Xia Ye Qiu Yu spread his dragon wings behind him and flew rapidly towards the north.

The great and mighty Tianlong circulated the true energy in his body, climbed over the eaves and walls, and fled quickly.

Mantou raised his arm high, the contract on the back of his hand flashed red, and a two-legged flying dragon Noodles appeared in the air. He jumped onto its back and glided at a high speed.

The other players also used all their abilities and methods to flee to the north.

"Want to escape?"

The ancient green dragon slowly flapped its wings, first soaring nearly a hundred meters into the air, then swooping down in the direction of the players, roaring:
"Imperial! I will tear you into pieces and let you suffer eternal pain--"

As she dived, a fierce storm swept in, and the streets were in chaos, as if a natural disaster had occurred. Wherever the angry green dragon passed, everything was destroyed.

The houses and buildings on both sides of the street collapsed one after another, people panicked and fled in all directions, and Ulrichia swept across the ground at an astonishing speed.

She stared at the last few players, slowly opened her bloody mouth, and a dark green light surged from the depths of her throat.

"boom--"

The next moment, a thick dark green torrent gushed out of her mouth, instantly penetrating the space and engulfing the players.

The moment the player came into contact with the breath, his flesh, blood, and bones were completely destroyed, leaving only a cloud of steaming mist.

"Get out of the way!"

"Noodle!"

Mantou pulled the reins, twisted the dragon's head, and controlled the two-legged dragon to flip over and turn sideways.

The dark green torrent brushed past the dragon's chest, leaving a dark mark on its abdomen.

Then, the breath hit the building in front, instantly piercing through more than a dozen layers of walls. The buildings in front also collapsed and turned into ruins.

Mantou was flying in the billowing smoke and dust. He patted his chest and sighed, "Damn, that was a close call. I almost got blown to pieces."

But at this moment, a strong aura came from behind, the two-legged flying dragon under his seat trembled violently and wailed, and Mantou also felt a palpitation.

He turned his head tremblingly, only to see the ancient green dragon staring at him with a grim gaze, the corners of its mouth raised in a hideous smile.

"Shh-"

A huge dragon claw wrapped in a terrifying storm swung towards him with a terrifying momentum.

Some players were caught in the storm and were torn apart by the hurricane in the blink of an eye. Their flesh and blood flew all over their bodies and they died miserably, which made Mantou shudder with fear.

“What the hell! Noodles, never mind, let’s just rush down!”

Mantou screamed, then tightened the reins, leaned his body tightly against the back of the pterosaur, and fell almost vertically to the ground.

Fortunately, as an ancient dragon, Ulrichia is huge in size and her movements are far less agile than Noodles.

Mantou and the two-legged flying dragon fell rapidly, dived into the smoke and dust, avoided the attack of the dragon's claws, and escaped from the range of the storm at the last moment without being caught up in it.

The dozen or so unlucky players behind were all killed, torn to pieces by the storm, and turned into debris mixed in the smoke and dust.

The mighty Heavenly Dragon circulated his true energy, stepping on gravel in mid-air and constantly dodging and moving, but the ancient green dragon opened its bloody mouth and bit directly at him.

"Crack!"

With just a crisp sound, the bald monk's rock-like muscles were bitten to pieces, blood rushed out of his body, and his body was corroded by the toxins in the green dragon's mouth.

In just a moment, the mighty sky turned into pieces of flesh and bones.

"Shh-"

Mantou rode his flying dragon and rushed out of the surging smoke and dust. He looked at the Takamatsu city wall in the distance with a happy expression on his face: "We will soon reach the outer city!"

With his powerful perception, the natural war maniac heard the mixed sounds outside the city, including the roar of artillery fire, the whistling of steam engines, and the passionate shouts of "For the Empire" and "For the Emperor".

"Listen! It's our large army! They are attacking the city!"

"Let's go!"

Under the pursuit of the Ancient Green Dragon, there are now less than ten players left in Linying City, and they are all the best among them - at least when it comes to escaping.

"In that case——I will deal with you all at once!"

Ulrichia flapped its dragon wings and rose into the air, reaching a height of hundreds of meters, holding high the dragon head scepter in its claws.

"Rebellious Imperials, tremble before the might of His Majesty Tiamat!"

"Mother of Five Heads, Lord of Scales and Claws! May your wings cover all realms, and make all things bow before the might of the dragon!"

In an instant, the five-headed dragon phantoms in the sky were activated again, and deep light burst out from their vertical pupils. Endless flames, thunder, ice, and acid descended from the sky, turning into a terrible elemental storm.

"boom!"

One player was struck by lightning from mid-air and turned into charcoal, while another player not far away was engulfed in flames and turned into ashes amid wailing.

A strong warrior player was frozen by the frost that symbolized the power of the white dragon. He was unable to move and his skin was covered with white frost.

Ulrichia laughed wildly and pounced on him impatiently, crushing the ice sculpture of the warrior with her huge claws.

But at this moment, a cold voice came from a distance.

"Ulrichia!"

The ancient green dragon turned around and felt an unfamiliar pressure that was enough to rival hers. She frowned slightly and looked solemn.

In the distant sky, a dragon girl with red hair and golden eyes was floating in the air, looking at her with a cold gaze.

Below her was Adrian, covered in golden light, and Duke Franz, who was carrying an exaggerated giant sword. They were staring at the ancient green dragon in the distance as if they were facing a formidable enemy, their eyes full of anger and hatred.
