Who designed this underworld dungeon?.

Chapter 414: Top of the Ancient Dragon
What appeared before Selene was a rugged upward mountain road and a bonfire that had not yet been lit.

"How did I get here?"

She urgently reviewed what had just happened in her mind, but in the end she couldn't understand.

She just posed for a photo with the little dragons.
Wait, pose!?
Selene suddenly realized that if there was any unusual behavior that could have led her here, it could only be posing in the same posture as the little dragon man.

"I was wondering why so many people were posing, and it turns out this is what it means."

She ran over and lit a bonfire immediately. Only the blazing flames could give her a sense of security.

The moment the flame was lit, magical words appeared before our eyes.

【Top of the Ancient Dragon】

“I’ve never heard of this place.”

Since Clan's transformation into a dragon happened just two days ago, things had not yet fermented to the point where she could be aware of it, so she knew nothing about what happened at Ancient Dragon Peak.

But even if we knew that little bit of information, it wouldn't be of much use.

So, what should she do next?

Looking at the rugged mountain road ahead, Selina instinctively sensed the breath of powerful monsters, and there were more than one, which was definitely not something she could fight against.

The reason why she performed well in the painting world of Anor Londo was entirely because she understood all the information given by the adventurers. If she didn't have the information, with her mediocre skills that she had learned in a hurry, she would probably only be able to add one more dish to the monster's dinner.

"How about we just wait here for Fingri and the others to come?"

But then she had a question:
Can Fingerly and the others realize how to get here?
At the same time, on the other side.

"Princess? Princess?"

The members of Hassawi's team shouted Selene's name as if they were calling for her soul, but it was useless.

In the center of the meditating little dragons, Selene was still sitting there in the same posture, but her head was tilted, and her breathing was even and long, as if she had fallen into a long sleep.

It’s strange, since there is a Selene here, then who is the one that appears on the top of the ancient dragon?
"What's going on? The princess looks like she drank a lot of sleeping potions." Matilda asked, "We can't just leave her here."

[Try moving her away?] Alayya continued to use straw to form words.

"No, if we act rashly and cause unpredictable consequences, we'll be doomed."

Fingri frowned and stared at Selene's body, and said in a deep voice:
"Is this a strange curse? Then we must not act rashly."

Time passed by minute by minute.

Selina, who was at the top of the ancient dragon, strolled around the campfire for a long time, counting her own heartbeats, but in the end she couldn't bear it anymore.

"Why hasn't anyone come yet?"

Since there were no outsiders there, there was no need for her to maintain her image. She scratched her hair in annoyance and turned her gaze to the mountain road in front of her.

"Forget it, even if no one helps me, I can explore on my own!"

With this in mind, Selene walked up the mountain road with a heroic and confident look on her face.

For now, the impression that Ancient Dragon Peak left on her was gray stones, occasional branches and weeds, and the brightest sunlight in all areas of the entire Sen dungeon. Because the sunlight was too bright, it made people feel sleepy and want to take a nap.

As she walked forward, her vision gradually became wider, and her mood also became wider along with her vision.

Before long, bright sunshine and open sky appeared before our eyes. A strong wind was blowing on the top of the mountain. Looking up, we suddenly felt the insignificance of human body and the magnificence of the world.

Selene suddenly discovered something. She looked into the distance and saw a familiar city among the clouds in the distance.

"Is that Irithyll?"

She covered her mouth in surprise. "I actually came to such a far place?"

However, before she could calm down from her surprise, she heard hurried footsteps from the side, and a tall and strange-looking "person" rushed towards her with a weapon in his hand.

The guy was covered in dusty rags, his body hunched over as if he was severely deformed, and he held a spear and a large shield in his hands. It was worth noting that, unlike the tattered spear, the large shield was very delicate, and even had a lifelike dragon painted on it, with its wings spread and roaring towards the sky.

A strong wind blew up, and the strong wind blew up the enemy's rags, revealing an inhuman face.

"Snake man!?"

That’s right, that hunched body was not the back as people thought, but the necks of the snake men piled together!
Isn’t this the top of the “ancient dragon”? Why is there a snake man?

When it rushed to a distance of several steps away from Selene, its neck hidden under the rag cloak suddenly stretched out and bit the other party fiercely!
"Wow!"

Selene dodged to the side, thinking she could avoid it, but the snake man's neck turned in mid-air and bit her arm with its bloody mouth!

An irresistible force instantly pulled her towards the snake man. If she was pulled over in this situation, she would probably be pierced by the spear in an instant.

She suppressed the urge to scream, and desperately shot an ordinary fireball at the snake man, because this thing had the fastest release speed!
"boom!"

An unexpected situation occurred. After being hit on the neck by the fireball, the snake man suddenly opened his mouth and screamed.

Is its weak spot its neck? Or is it afraid of fire?
No matter what, after finally gaining her freedom, Selene instantly released the magic [Spy] to eliminate the sound of footsteps. Since she did not have time to release the second magic, she directly tore open the magic scroll engraved with invisibility!

It recovered quickly, and even though it couldn't see Selene, it still used its long neck to launch a large-scale sweeping attack on the place where the princess had originally stood. It seemed to have really hit the princess, but she forced herself not to make a sound, and instead released the [Sound] in the opposite direction.

The snake man instantly attacked the place where the sound came from. At this moment, a dagger wrapped in flames suddenly pierced its neck. The quality of this dagger was much better than ordinary ones, and it had many sharp enchantments. Even Selene could use it to pierce the snake man's scales, not to mention the weakly defended neck.

"Ow!"

The snakeman struggled very hard, but no matter how it attacked Selene who was hanging behind it, she refused to let go, stabbing and cutting the snakeman's neck fiercely, and a lot of blood splashed out. Finally, the monster fell to the ground, and turned into ashes along with its weapons and equipment.

Selene also lay on her back on the ground. Although the armor wrapped her like a tin can, she was also injured inside.

“It feels like half my life is gone.”

Endless fatigue surged into my heart, but followed by a hearty smile.

"awesome!"

Selene laughed, because she hadn't felt such an exciting thing for a long time. What happened in the palace could only be considered depressing at best.

Fighting made her feel the meaning of life again!
"But I still feel so tired. The monsters here are too strong. This one is probably an elite?"

She closed her eyes and rested for a while, letting the warm light shine on her body, feeling very comfortable.

This comfort lasted until she was shrouded by several shadows, blocking out the sunlight.

"What?"

She opened her eyes and saw the scene she least wanted to see.

There were several snake people standing in front of her and staring at her.

Selene was silent for a moment, then forced a smile and said:

"How are you?"

"."

"Wait, please don't bite, don't bite!"

Not long after, Selene reappeared at the campfire with a frightened expression on her face, her chest heaving with rapid breathing.

Who says that if you stay in a dungeon for a long time you won’t feel anything about death? It’s obviously super scary!
Just thinking back on that feeling, she felt like she was going to die suddenly!

The most important thing is
"Why are there so many snake people like that?"

Fingri and the others haven't arrived yet. If they were here, these snake people wouldn't be a big problem.

But for Selene, encountering this group of snake people was a disaster for her!
"No, I can't just give up like this."

A few minutes passed.

A snake man was walking leisurely, and suddenly turned his head to look behind him.

A gust of wind blew by, and there was nothing behind it.

It looked for a while and then left, while Selene, who was standing still, quickly cast another spell of invisibility and spy. She only had a lot of magic power left, and she didn't know where she could explore before her magic power ran out.

As she went deeper, she could now confirm that the top of the ancient dragon was full of snakemen, and there were even snakeman wizards!

After the lesson from last time, she didn't dare to alarm these guys again and just moved slowly.

He would pick up the bright spots on the road if possible, but there were times when he failed.

It looked like a small point of light, but after being picked up, it suddenly turned into a large shield.

【Ancient Dragon Painted Large Shield】

[The large wooden shield depicting the ancient dragon is made with a unique technique. Wearing it on your back can slowly restore your vitality. The ancient dragon painting on the shield is extremely delicate and it took a lot of time to create this work.]

[Although the snake people are small-minded and pathetic descendants, they can still get a glimpse of the appearance of the immortal ancient dragon. ]

She had no time to think carefully about the information contained in the shield. Her weak strength prevented her from lifting the shield. The shield fell to the ground and immediately attracted the attention of a group of snake people.

At this time, even if her invisibility was still effective, her figure was inevitably locked, and four or five snake people ran towards this side at the same time.

There was no other way, Selene could only run towards the place where there were the least snake people.

As far as she could see, the place with the least snake people was an ancient building that looked like a gate. The gate was supposed to be blocked by an iron fence mechanism, but someone pulled the mechanism and now the gate was open.

Behind the door was a very open area, and there were no snake people.

A summoning symbol appeared near the gate.

[Summon the helper "Hawkwood"?]

As she was being chased by the snakemen, Selene didn't have time to confirm the summoning rune and ran directly into the open field.

"huh, huh"

Gasping for breath, she looked back and saw the snake people blocking the gate and refusing to come in.

Seeing this scene, she was not happy, but was surrounded by a sense of fear.

It’s not that the snake people didn’t want to come in, but white mist rose from the gate, forming a fog gate that blocked their way.

"Something is wrong!"

A loud dragon roar was heard, and she looked up at the sky, only to see a black shadow growing from small to large and falling heavily in front of her.

【Ancient Flying Dragon】!
