"It's not the end yet? How long is this road?"

Looking at Lamia who was still struggling to move forward, the white figure showed an expression of disbelief.

Lamia has been on that path for over two thousand years now.

That’s more than two thousand years. Lamia may not have experienced two thousand years since she was born.

However, it was on this road of endless darkness that she persisted for two thousand years.

"Your Majesty, what kind of successor are you looking for? Doesn't even a strong-willed successor like this meet your requirements?!"

The white figure sighed softly, and she even began to feel a little desperate.

Being able to persist for two thousand years under such circumstances is already very remarkable. No, it can almost be said to be completely impossible.

To be honest, even the white figure admired Lamia for being able to hold on until this point.

But even so, Lamia still hasn't passed the trial, and can't even see the shadow of the end.

Could it be that what His Majesty the Dragon King left behind was really a trial that no one could complete?

The white figure had an ugly expression on his face.

······

Time passed by minute by minute, starting from the fourth month, slowly, the fifth month, the sixth month, and the seventh month.

Elina and the four holy dragons waited outside the stone gate for three whole months, but there was still no sign of the stone gate opening, and there was no sign of Lamia at all.

Slowly, the expression on Bahamut's face changed from excitement and joy to confusion, then to solemnity, and finally to disbelief.

How can it be!

It's been seven months!

This inheritance trial hasn't ended yet? !

Bahamut simply couldn't accept this.

If the flow rate in the trial space is really as those heirs said, it will continue to accelerate as time goes by.

So now Lamia has at least spent nearly a thousand years in the trial space.

What kind of trial could last for such a long time?

"Bahamut, didn't you say that this trial would last no more than four months? What's going on now?"

Elina's face looked very ugly.

Originally, she thought that Lamia could really succeed, but now seven months have passed and there has been no movement at all. This time is far longer than the time Bahamut told her.

"Elina, don't worry. The four months we have estimated based on the information provided by the heirs who have gone before us. The real time may be longer than we estimated, but it has been seven months now. I believe this trial will soon be over."

"Besides, the stone door still hasn't opened yet, which means Lamia is still in the trial. At least her life is not in danger, right?"

Looking at Elina's anxious look, although Bahamut became even more anxious, he still suppressed his inner anxiety and comforted Elina.

After hearing what Bahamut said, although Elina was still very anxious, she finally nodded.

"I'm sorry, Bahamut. I lost my temper just now."

After Elina apologized to Bahamut, she closed her eyes and sat back in her chair.

Her reason told her that what Bahamut said was not wrong. After all, it was the inheritance left by the first Dragon King. There were too many unknowns in it. Anything could happen, and it was not something that Bahamut and the others could predict.

Moreover, the trial is indeed still going on smoothly. As long as the trial is still going on, it means that Lamia is fine for the time being.

But no matter how rational she was, she still couldn't control the restless and anxious mood in her heart.

Elina couldn't imagine how much pain Lamia would be going through in the trial space at this moment.

However, she had to calm down now and wait for the trial to end.

"call."

Elina exhaled deeply and forced herself into a meditative state.

Only in this way could she force herself not to think about what happened in the trial space.

What's going on!

After seeing Elina forcing herself to calm down, Bahamut's anxiety that had just been suppressed resurfaced.

He frowned and stared at the stone door, as if trying to see what was happening behind the stone door.

No matter what, seven months is too long. This time is seven times longer than the best heir had persisted. Is it impossible to pass the trial even with this? !

Bahamut pursed his lips slightly. Now, he had no other choice but to wait.

“It’s so cold…”

Lamia sighed as she walked along the dark road that seemed to never end.

She just felt like a walking corpse, her whole body was cold, so cold that even her thinking seemed to have stopped.

Who am I? Where am I? Why am I walking on this inexplicable road full of despair?

All of this made Lamia begin to feel confused.

The long years have begun to wear away her soul, and her past memories have begun to become a little blurry.

He even seemed to have forgotten the purpose of coming here.

"Pfft."

Lamia seemed to be unsteady and fell heavily to the ground.

Unlike previous falls, this time she did not get up. She was tired, really too tired. This torture made her feel like she would rather die than live.

Lamia didn't want to hold on any longer, she wanted to give up. Instead of continuing on this road that would never end, it would be better to just die.

Thinking of this, Lamia slowly closed her eyes.

However, the moment she closed her eyes, a blurry but familiar face suddenly appeared before her.

The feeling was like an electric current passing through her body, causing her to sit up straight away.

"Come on, Lamia, I'll be waiting for you outside."

Looking at the blurry face, Lamia opened her mouth. She wanted to call out the person's name, but she couldn't.

Yes, she forgot that even Doragon's memory had disappeared completely due to the erosion of tens of thousands of years.

"Who are you? Who are you? Who are you!"

Lamia called softly, then her face showed pain, and finally, tears flowed silently from the corners of Lamia's eyes.

This person should be the most important person to her.

But she couldn't remember, she really couldn't remember. She couldn't remember every detail between her and this person, and couldn't even remember this person's name.

For a moment, an extreme feeling of pain seemed to tear her soul into pieces. Lamia grabbed her hair frantically, trying to force herself to remember.

But I can’t remember it. The power of time is too terrible. In the endless years, nothing can really be left behind.

After discovering that she could not remember anything at all, Lamia slowly curled up in the darkness, crying silently, as helpless as a baby abandoned by the whole world.

"Give up, give up."

Looking at Lamia who was in great pain, the white figure couldn't help but burst into tears.

Lamia has been walking on that dark road for ten thousand years.

That’s ten thousand years. Ten thousand years is enough to erase too much, even enough to span an entire era.

"Your Majesty the Dragon King, how long is your journey? Isn't ten thousand years enough to pass your test?!"

For the first time, this white figure doubted the supreme Dragon King.

(Please give me some monthly tickets on the weekend, thank you everyone.)

Chapter 16 Even if I have to walk through a hundred thousand years of darkness, I will meet you again

"Elena! What are you doing?!"

At the entrance to the Dragon King inheritance, Bahamut was blocking the somewhat crazy Elina.

The other four holy dragons also stood firmly on Bahamut's side, blocking Elina.

"Bahamut, don't stop me. It's been a year now. I have to go in and see what happened to Lamia!"

Yes, five months have passed since the last time.

By this calculation, Lamia has been in the trial for a whole year.

During this year, there was no movement in the entire Shimen.

Before, under Bahamut's comfort, Elina forced herself to endure it.

But this time, she couldn't bear it any longer, she had to go in and see what Lamia had encountered!

"Elina, it's not that I don't let you in, but this stone door is just an entrance to the trial space. If you don't have permission, you are absolutely not allowed to enter."

"If you force your way in, the stone door will automatically be destroyed, and Lamia will be completely lost in the turbulence of space and will never be able to come out!"

Bahamut's voice was heavy, but it spoke a truth.

The Dragon King's inheritance is the treasure left by the first Dragon King to the Doragon clan, and other races will never be allowed to covet it.

If one really encounters a powerful enemy that even Bahamut is no match for, and attempts to break into the Dragon King's Secret Realm, then this stone gate will directly self-destruct.

The trial space will be sealed forever in the space turbulence, and there will be no possibility of it ever seeing the light of day again.

They would rather destroy themselves than let other races take away this inheritance.

"how so······"

After hearing Bahamut's words, Elina took two steps back weakly.

It's all my fault. I should have insisted on letting Lamia stay.

If I had been more resolute at the beginning, this would never have happened!

Elina's face was pale. At this moment, she thought of that starry night. The girl who was like a frost elf also left in her arms because of her powerlessness.

All of a sudden, painful memories came to her mind. Those memories were like a sharp dagger, carving countless wounds in Alina's heart.

Could it be that today, I will lose Lamia again for the same reason? !

Elina clenched her fists and stared at the stone door with her sapphire eyes. Even though her nails dug deeply into her hands and blood was slowly flowing out, Elina didn't care at all.

Now, the only thing she cared about was the stone door and Lamia behind it.

Looking at Erina's ugly face, Bahamut felt very uncomfortable.

It was originally thought that Lamia would be the most likely candidate to become the next Dragon King's successor, but unexpectedly, this inheritance would be so difficult.

A whole year has passed. If calculated according to the flow rate of the trial space, several thousand years have passed.

What kind of trial would take so long?

Your Majesty the Dragon King, what kind of trial have you set?

Bahamut sighed softly in his heart. At this moment, the originally familiar First Dragon King made him feel so strange.

······

"Is that the end?"

In the trial space, the white shadow who had been observing Lamia shook his head helplessly.

Lamia in the picture was sitting there in a daze, no longer moving. It looked like failure could happen at any time.

"Even this heir couldn't complete the trial. It seems that there really is no heir in this world who can pass the trial."

Qianli Baiying's voice was lost.

She has been here, guarding this heritage for 20,000 years, and she has been waiting for the emergence of that successful person.

Unfortunately, after 20,000 years, she still didn't wait.

Originally, she thought that the 39th heir would succeed.

However, it now seems that what His Majesty the Dragon King left behind was really a task that could not be completed at all.

To be honest, looking at Lamia who had such strong willpower, the white shadow really didn't want her to be punished for failure.
