Bringing the MC system to Middle-earth.

Chapter 73 Dragon and Spell
hula-

The scorching flames instantly engulfed Levi and heated up the nearby stone walls. The residual heat caused the air to distort.

【Fire Resistance (8:00)】

The long sword was drawn out, and the remaining flames were pushed away. Levi felt the horrible heat all over his body, and he took a breath of hot air and felt a palpitation in his heart.

Fortunately, I drank the medicine quickly enough and gulped down a bottle of fireproof potion in one gulp. I have to say, the feeling of being pushed on the back by this breath of dragon was really strong. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have been blown to the sky.

"Oh? There are actually humans who are not afraid of fire..."

From deep within the passage, a huge noise was heard, sweeping all the way to Levi's front.

Boom.

A hurricane hit, and in a blink of an eye, a body as big as a mountain was blocking the other side of the passage. The huge dragon head lowered its head and stared at the tiny body below with one eye. The pupil, which was bigger than a human head, was full of curiosity, so it didn't even continue to take action.

"Is that you, the little bug the Dark Lord was talking about? Do you think you can deal with me just by relying on your ability to not be afraid of fire?"

"Naive, hahahahaha..."

The dragon's mouth opened and let out an evil laugh.

Levi took a quick glance and estimated that this guy must be at least a hundred meters tall.

This is the largest fire dragon in the Third Age and also the last fire dragon.

"Are you Smaug?"

"That's me, little bug. Why are you here? Is it for treasure, something in the mountains, or are you here as a snack for me on behalf of someone?"

"I've been waiting for you..."

"However, I really don't see how you, the person specifically mentioned by the Dark Lord, are any different from others except that you are more resistant to burning."

"Maybe I'm not the person you're talking about. I've never heard of the Dark Lord."

"Hehehe..."

Smaug raised his head, then lowered it again and stared at Levi with one eye.

"You want to get this from the great Smaug. Don't think I don't know what you are planning."

"Who sent you here? Was it you yourself? No, that's unlikely. You must have some purpose. You blocked the door because you were afraid that I would go out. Why were you afraid that I would go out?"

"Are you worried about the human town outside?"

Tsk.

This chatterbox has really become an esoteric person.

"To be honest, I thought you were sleeping, or even dead. After all, there has been no news of a dragon outside for a long time."

Levi pretended to be relaxed while chatting with the talkative dragon, while quietly synthesizing a pedal in his backpack.

"Well...I was indeed sleeping a few days ago, but someone woke me up and offered me a pretty good deal. Guess what it is?"

"Not interested." Levi said deliberately.

But the more he didn't want to listen, the more Smaug continued:

"He said that darkness will eventually sweep across the land, and I will be the King under the Mountain who rules all of the North."

"I heard that the King Under the Mountain is a dwarf."

Hearing this, Smaug immediately raised his body and showed off his tall and mighty body.

"Now take a good look at who is more suitable for this title?"

Levi raised his head and looked up, but he was not really looking at its body. His gaze swept around and finally stopped at the heart.

In the dim passage, there was a tiny gap in the dense scales that were glowing with fire. In the gap was a hard diamond, replacing the dragon scales and protecting the skin underneath.

"I have to admit, you are really tall."

"Hehehe... you have good vision. If you say a few more nice words, maybe I can keep you alive."

"Don't even think about resisting, you tiny human. Even those powerful warriors from ancient times were killed by me, and now there are no more people like them in the whole world."

"I was young and frail then, but now I am mighty. My scales are harder than a shield ten layers thick, my teeth are like swords, my claws like spears, the sweep of my tail is like thunder, the flap of my wings is a hurricane, and my mere breath can bring death—"

"What is your name, human?"

While boasting, the dragon suddenly lowered his head and asked Levi, "You can call me Steve."

It is impossible to tell the real name.

There are many creatures in Middle-earth that are born with some magic, and dragons are one of them.

Levi knew clearly that this talkative dragon said so much not simply because it was a chatterbox. Its words were magical and could bewitch people and make them unable to refuse its questions. The gaze of its dragon eyes was also a natural spell that could make the person being stared at slowly submit to its will and do what it said.

Anyone else would have been dizzy after talking so much to Smaug, but Levi just felt it was noisy.

However, as long as one has a strong will, one can still resist the above, but there is one special thing - if the person being questioned says his own name, he will be immediately captured by the curse and become a slave of the dragon.

"Steve? I've never heard of you. Do you have another name?"

It's still trying to continue the trick.

"That's a lot. I'm afraid you won't be able to remember it all if I tell you."

"Interesting human beings."

Smaug narrowed his eyes.

None of my spells worked.

There was a faint glow from his abdomen and his mouth was slightly open. Just as Smaug was about to end the conversation and launch a despicable sneak attack, he suddenly heard the sound of chewing and swallowing.

This human is eating and drinking at the same time?

Bold!

The dragon's breath almost reached his throat. At this moment, Levi suddenly drew out his sword and swung it hard at the dragon's head!
clang! !

The huge sound of metal collision echoed in the corridor, making people's ears numb. The huge dragon head was shaken by this unexpected blow, and the whole dragon took several steps back and hit the wall with a loud "boom!"

The sword shone brightly, and its powerful ability to disperse things meant that in the huge collision, it was Smaug, not Levi, who was knocked back first.

As long as you use the sword method against it, you will never be deflected by the knife.

【-twenty four】

[998/1000]

"This armor and blood are really thick."

Levi couldn't help but sigh. This was the first time he experienced how others felt when facing him. Even this was the damage caused by the [Strength II] potion, and the damage was done to a dragon head with relatively thin scales.

Good news, there is a health bar.

Bad news, it's too hard.

"bed bugs--!!!"

"You pissed me off!!"

His abdomen suddenly lit up blindingly, and a deep red dragon's breath gushed out from Smaug's mouth again, enveloping everything around it. Flames were everywhere, with nowhere to hide.

The dragon's breath lasted for a long time, until the stone behind it showed signs of melting, and then it slowly stopped.

However, no matter how Smaug attacked, Levi just calmly stepped out on the flames, his nether alloy armor still icy cold.

"what?"

This time Smaug was really shocked. He was not afraid of ordinary flames, but he was not afraid of the extremely high temperature flame breath with a little magic?
Even if it is not afraid of fire, the impact should still cause some damage. In the past, even the stone houses in the Valley City would be washed away by this blow!
"You did catch the dragon by surprise a bit."

【+1】

In just a few words, the dragon's life was restored to full.

"There's something even more surprising to you!"

Seeing that the damage caused by using the long sword was really limited, Levi stepped on the pedal on the spot, and immediately the sound of something being ignited was heard from under the floor.

The TNT buried underneath in advance was triggered.

"what is that?"

Smaug asked in confusion, and when he looked again, he saw that Levi had dug a small tunnel behind him and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
