On the other side, on the statue of the black snake in the cave.

Lying on the ground, the stone dragon Gordon, it was staring at the bottom of the cave, a little confused.

It had just watched a snake and a person suddenly disappear into the cavern, leaving behind only a corpse, a portal where the light was still there, and the raging flames!

I have to say that the feeling of looking down on the battlefield is really good, allowing it to see the whole situation and obtain all the ground information.

Now, with the mage and the serpent gone, it seems like a good time to leave.

Gordon watched the fire reflect on the cavern and had an idea.

But soon, it was rejected again.

Because, it felt, it would have to wait for the Shadow Ring to turn better.

This is the only way to give a sense of solidity to the insecure one.

Let it go down and pass through the battlefield where the vanished serpent has disappeared, but it wouldn't dare.

If the giant serpent called the Twin Snake God suddenly appeared just as it was about to leave, where would it run?

It wasn't sure it could hide under His nose.

You must know that the giant snake is from the abyss, and it is very likely that it is the incarnation of the abyss lord, and it is not easy to hide it.

So Gordon felt that he would wait until the Shadow Ring got better, and then leave.

This is the safest solution.

And it's hard to describe how it's feeling right now, though success has made them dog-eat-dog.

But it also doesn't have the ability to be the praying mantis catching cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind, and it has no idea to be a fisherman when the sandpiper and the mussel compete for the benefit of the fisherman.

To be honest, all of this seems to be the opposite of its original intention.

Originally, he just wanted to borrow the hand of this mage to stop this cult sacrifice ceremony.

In the event of a conflict, it is best to damage the vitality of their leader, so that it makes sense to hide in the shadows and wait for an opportunity to pick up a leak.

But the current situation is very bad, and it no longer hopes to fight with two tigers, and it will definitely be injured.

Just be able to exit unharmed.

This is clearly not an event that this child who is only a few months old can participate in.

As for the rest, it didn't think about it.

After all, it never thought that these cultists would be so fierce that even the Abyss Lord would be summoned at once.

However, Gordon did not doubt it, because this sacrificial ritual is also famous in the Dragon Heritage.

That is, the famous one, the quality is not enough, the quantity is to make up, and the quantity is not enough, so the blood sacrifice magic is made up with the flesh and blood of the body.

In the past, when the High Elves were in turmoil during the civil war, most of their high-level spellcasters, in order to cast [Legendary Spells] that could not match their level, burned their lives and sacrificed their bodies.

Often, forcibly using [Legendary Spells] will cost several lives, and the price is the tragic result of not being able to resurrect and burning out of souls.

So much so that after the High Elves, they banned this method of [Blood Sacrifice].

But what I didn't expect was that these descendants, the snake people, who originated from one of the five ancestral races of the chaos of the world, actually knew this kind of spell, and the sacrificial methods and tricks were not much worse than those elves.

Just as Gordon waited patiently, there was movement below.

But it wasn't the serpent and mage that Gordon had thought, but a cat with blue fur that had scurried in out of nowhere.

Its vertical pupils are solemnly scanning everything in this cave, and with his somewhat round cat face, it looks a little cute.

But Gordon didn't laugh, because the blue cat with a round face soon turned into a dragon again, a real bronze dragon!

Or rather, it turned back into a bronze dragon.

It's a bronze dragon about the same size as it!

He was not very old, and the greenish bronze color on the scale armor had not completely receded, and it was obviously a true dragon in his teenage years.

When Gordon saw it, he thought of the kind man Nina had said, the same bronze dragon it suspected of being a bronze dragon.

Although he is not very sure, he is still eight points sure, unless Karandu comes with three bronze dragons!

But that's not about Gordon.

"How did it find this? Could it be that the passage to the underground cavern was discovered?"

Gordon looked at the bronze dragon that was among the human corpses below, sniffing and extinguishing not only the burning fire in the cave, but also the secret chamber.

But to be honest, several days have passed since the dock incident, and it is normal to be discovered.

It's just that Gordon regrets a little that the underground cavern can no longer be visited.

It was also when Gordon hesitated to warn this bronze dragon to stay away from here, there was an Abyss Lord here.

The place where the serpent and the mage disappeared.

Suddenly, a two-headed giant snake lying crookedly on its side and without breath appeared, lying on it with its belly turned up, motionless.

The soul flame of the "Head of Death" was also completely extinguished.

And the mage Joey, who was holding the half-folded [withered staff] from the [Death Desperate Situation], and the original gorgeous magic robe was already in tatters, looked at the two-headed giant snake in front of him with no breath at all, and his skin was charred into black charcoal, sweating profusely, and his pale face breathed a sigh of relief.

It had almost exhausted everything, killing the two-headed serpent from the abyss, and it was an acceptable ending, at least he was still alive.

But when he found the bronze dragon in the cavern, looting the items on the altar.

His face suddenly changed again, and soon, he became extremely angry again.

Because he saw this real dragon that looked like a sculpture, it subconsciously remembered the dragon in his heart.

That is, the dragon of the gods who deceived Lawson.

Is it pretending? Everything is planned by it?

Although there is a bronze dragon in front of him, Joey, who is familiar with dragon knowledge, knows that metal dragons are not static, and there are villains among them.

Anger has burned Joey's few sanities.

Anyway, it's definitely not a good thing to be able to touch it quietly and silently!

With this in mind.

Joey raised the Staff of Withered and didn't hesitate to take aim at the bronze dragon and unleash his strongest spell against life so far.

On the [Staff of Withered], the built-in seven-ring spell [Finger of Death]

Because [Finger of Death] couldn't cast on the undead, he didn't cast this spell on the two-headed giant snake because it didn't work.

As the light gathered from the top gem of the deadwood-like [Withered Staff] became brighter and brighter, the bronze dragon's wings and scales shining with its back to Joey.

And the shallow chanting spell sounded in the empty cavern.

A spell casting action was so fast that the bronze dragon hadn't reacted yet, why was the person behind him aiming at it, and a ray of negative energy in the form of a shooting state directly hit the dragon wing that it could protect.

But the negative energy is not a breakdown, but an erosion, and the sudden heart-rending pain caused by the contact with the [Finger of Death] around the body makes the bronze dragon who has never been hurt like this scream in pain.

The dragon's groan resounded through the cavern. Soon there was silence again, only the sound of the dragon's breathing, and the bronze dragon that was still alive just a moment ago lingered for a long time, like the two-headed giant snake, half-lying on the ground, weak.

I have to say that its luck is good, the super high physique of the dragon allows it to avoid the instant death effect brought by the finger of death.

But the erosion of negative energy made it unable to move, and it could only watch the mage in tattered robes.

With the staff, he limped to the place where the bronze dragon was, that is, to the altar.

Looking at the badly injured bronze dragon, Joey grinned and laughed.

Facing the bronze dragon, asked.

"Say, where did you hide your pocket watch?"

He had now identified the bronze dragon as the dragon of the gods who had deceived him.

And the bronze dragon was still suffering from negative energy, so much so that he couldn't say a word in pain.

Just as it tilted its head sideways, trying to organize a verbal justification, it found its location, the sky above the altar.

In the mouth of the black giant snake, a dragon shadow suddenly appeared.

It didn't find out until it saw clearly.

This burly true dragon with a black body and four giant horns does not belong to the five-colored dragon, but to the dragon family created by the nine-faced dragon god Io.

One of the Five Protosaurus.

Lava Dragon!
