32 The dragon's pupil burns

"Bang" The sword of the earth smashed on the ground, Ace looked left and right, and found that between Hermes and the committee, only the Kul mercenary group remained, and it was obvious that the mercenary group's position was a little awkward.

"Well, that Catherine, you have something to say. The deputy head of the regiment immediately turned back to the female mage and said.

Catherine glared at Ass angrily. Originally, it was a good choice to follow Master Swo, but now to disturb the master's small tryst, anyone with a discerning eye can see that it will be very inappropriate.

Of course, it would be even more unwise to stand between Hermes and the Committee. In this case, it is natural that it is better to leave as soon as possible. Catherine didn't bother to pay attention to As, and chose a clearing not far from Master Swo. Ferry was the first to follow Catherine, and then the deputy head of the regiment who struggled to drag the Sword of the Earth.

Green Wind stood still but didn't move, his gaze refocused on Grey Cloud, and his pale face grew paler. The elf's gaze was like substance, and Gray Cloud subconsciously took a small step back. The unobtrusive glorious war bow in his hand suddenly flickered. The bow body was wrapped in a phantom, revealing a longbow magnified several times.

"Damn. Even the Seventh Commissioner, who paid the most attention to demeanor and demeanor, couldn't help but curse in his heart at this time.

If there's anything in the world that's the worst, it's one of them being targeted by a dragon, even if it's a badly wounded dragon. The moment Green Wind looked at him, Gray Cloud knew that trouble had found him.

The Brilliant Battle Bow would not flicker for no reason, and it almost activated its full form in that moment just now, which only the bloodline of the Elven King could do. It seems that Green Wind is using the power of his bloodline to forcibly arouse resonance. Although it was not a small burden to do so, he succeeded in getting Grey Cloud to attract everyone's attention, especially Hermes.

Gray Cloud suddenly felt the blood in his body seem to be boiling, and the strength of his whole body was rapidly draining like a flood, and he knelt down with a "plop".

The Seventh Committee did his best to hold the ground, but his hands trembled uncontrollably. After not holding on for a second, the gray cloud let out a cry of pain, and the whole person fell to the ground limply.

The Brilliant Battle Bow fell as the Gray Cloud fell to the ground, and Green Wind clenched his fists tightly, but this was not a good time to reclaim the Holy Radiance. The elf suppressed the impulse in his heart and silently walked over to Catherine's side, staring at the glorious war bow from afar.

The elven war squad guarding the surroundings drew their bows and arrows with a "whoosh", and twenty-two unique long arrows pointed at Hermes at the same time. The chill from the arrows made the Kul mercenary group standing aside feel very uneasy. Without hesitation, Catherine recited the incantation, releasing a shield as fast as she could.

Tension began to fill the air again.

The elven war-level longbow is said to be able to easily shoot through ordinary wooden shields from a distance of a kilometer. With such a close distance, even the black dragon in its heyday did not dare to take it head-on, not to mention that Hermes was already seriously injured and weak.

"It was actually the dragon pupil burning, and it was the first time I had the opportunity to formally observe the whole process. This should be written down. "Professor Twelve Toes is really elusive, and the more incredible the critical moment, the more this strange undead will come to join in the fun.

The old professor's figure suddenly flashed to Gray Cloud's side, ignoring the imminent danger. He leaned close to his head to observe the victim closely, and did not forget to record the various characteristics and states in detail in his hands.

However, the appearance of goblin scholars itself played a role in easing the atmosphere.

In fact, Catherine also saw the legendary "Dragon Pupil Burning" for the first time. Because the dragon has not been active on the continent for a long time, only a handful of people have been lucky enough to see such a scene.

Dragon Pupil Burning is a special ability that only adult dragons have. Of course, this strange ability is not available to every dragon, let alone at will.

According to the famous "Dragon History Research" of the Dragon Examination School, the conditions for the use of "Dragon Pupil Burning" are quite harsh. Only creatures that have been watched by the dragon for a long time can be shocked by the "burning dragon pupils".

An out-of-print collection of the Royal Academy, "A Brief Introduction to Special Magic", speculates that the "Dragon Pupil Burning" may be a special magic belonging to the soul realm. It works by capturing a trace of the imprint on the recipient's soul and then triggering a soul shock through the imprint.

However, it is impossible to know what the real situation is. Dragons are not low-level creatures that can be captured and observed in a laboratory. What's more, the figure of the giant dragon on the continent is becoming more and more difficult to see now, and some of the special abilities possessed by this race can only be understood and analyzed from the pile of old papers.

Fortunately, the "Dragon Pupil Burning" itself does not have much lethality, and its effect is very similar to the paralysis spell, but the duration and effect are much stronger. Powerful dragons use it mainly to show the majesty of the dragon. Just one glare, and you can make the other person fall to the ground weakly, how shocking it is. For example, the gray clouds at the moment have become a victim of Hermes's display of majesty.

"Captain, I've heard that only those whose souls are enslaved by dragons will be attacked by the burning pupils of dragons. Ferry asked Catherine, touching his chin.

The priest's statement is the most widely circulated rumor on the mainland about the burning of the dragon's pupil. Most of these rumors are not to be believed, but the truth is often obscured by time, and some stories and descriptions that are strange or more in line with people's imagination are more likely to prevail.

Like the legendary dragon, it should be powerful and terrifying enough. The ability to capture a trace of the soul mark obviously does not match their proper identity, and enslaving the soul becomes a matter of course.

Catherine was not interested in correcting Ferry for her misunderstanding, but she was also surprised how Hermes could have a trace of the soul mark of the gray cloud (a female mage from the Royal Academy, who still believed in the records in the Academy's collection).

This seems to verify from the side that the powerful existence in the Doden Mountains, Corner City and Hermes are not strangers to each other. Otherwise, the elven war team should have shot long arrows at the first time, instead of putting on a confrontational posture.

"Vicie. Under the aggressive posture of Corner City, despite the seriousness of his injuries, the black dragon finally spoke officially for the first time. However, its voice was nowhere near as intimidating as it had been when Catherine had escaped from the Dwarven King's palace before. At that time, it was just a roar from Hermes that shook the female mage's mouth and vomited blood.

The black dragon's voice was unusually low, and he didn't even open his mouth wide. Its words are like squeezing out of between your teeth. But Hermeth did not intend to give up the arrogance and majesty of the dragon, ignoring the threat of the war team and raising its strongest voice, "Explain, Visse, I give you the opportunity to explain, you must give Hermes an explanation that satisfies Hermes. Otherwise, the whole corner city will bear my untold wrath. ”

Catherine actually pinched a cold sweat for Hermes at this time. As long as Lady Vicie gave the order, even Master Swo would not be able to help the black dragon block the twenty-two sharp arrows. Does this stupid dragon really think that by relying on the "burning dragon pupils", he can scare the corner city?

"You keep your eyes open, I need to take a closer look at the structure inside. ”

At this time, probably only an old professor would do what he wanted to do so unscrupulously. The goblin scholar stood beside Hermes' wheel-like eyes, almost all of them pressed to the black dragon's eyeballs. Compared to the huge black dragon, his stature is really a bit like a mouse and an elephant. For this university scholar, now was the best time to study the burning of dragon pupils, and he didn't take the dragon's horror to heart in the slightest.

"Fuck off, gnomes. Hermes rolled his eyes, and with great difficulty turned his pupils at the old professor.

"Pop" The black dragon's scarlet tongue poked out of its mouth and whipped at the goblin scholar's body as if it were driving away a fly.

The figure of the old professor was drawn into a cloud of white mist, and the "Boom Goo" rolled for two seconds before gathering again.

"The gnomes are distant relatives of the goblins, please don't confuse them. The old professor's voice was a little muffled, "You'd better let me take a good look at the structure of your eyes." Otherwise, after you die, I won't be able to directly study how your soul resonates with the spirit of that elf through your eyes. ”

"Woo," Hermes let out a rage from his throat, "Damn the undead, you're a damn undead too. You ghostly corpses, the stench of your putrid smell is everywhere in the Doden Mountains. If you don't stay in that land cursed by the living, why do you come to the Doden Mountains to stir up the wind and rain?"

"Vicie!" roared the black dragon, "have you joined forces with the kings of the Dead Realm, have you forgotten your promise and reneged on the protection that the underworld has given you?"

"Stupid Dragon, even a roaring city lord, wouldn't speak to Lord Visy in such a tone. ”

"Huh" Fei Shuang, who was holding her nails, suddenly turned into dozens of figures, and surrounded Hermes at once, "Do you really think that there is no tradition of dragon slaying in Corner City?"

"Hey, who is that, don't open your mouth and close your mouth to slay the dragon, the dragon is not so easy to slaughter. Besides, it's no good for you to slaughter it. This guy has escaped, and his treasure has already been divided. Master Swo shouted from the side, "Get out of the way, and let someone who can call the shots get down to business." I've already said it, trouble is coming. I'm tired, old man, but I don't want to do it anymore. ”

Master Swo's voice is very loud, and he doesn't look like he is "tired" at all. But as he shouted, Lady Visie reached out and made a gesture, and the war squad put away their bows and arrows in unison.

Mr. Fangbi took the opportunity to step forward to help Gray Cloud, who struggled to stand up.

"Shenghui. Gray Cloud gasped.

Fang Bi hesitated and said, "Except for you, none of us have touched the Holy Radiance. ”

Gray Cloud shook his head, as if he had exhausted all his strength, before he raised his right hand and pointed in a direction.

"Who said that except for the gray clouds, no one can touch the Holy Radiance. ”

A figure quickly flashed to the side of the glorious battle bow, "I'll show you." ”

Fei Shuang scooped up the Brilliant Battle Bow and raised it above her head, "Oh hahaha, how is it? I can pick it up as well." ”

Unfortunately, as soon as Fei Shuang's words fell, the war bow flashed in a flash, and the entire bow body trembled and beat on Fei Shuang's hand like a living thing.

Fei Shuang's cheeks immediately flushed with an unhealthy flush, and she gritted her teeth from time to time, but she had to deliberately maintain a smug expression. Soon, a large amount of cold air emerged from the Brilliant Battle Bow, and the surrounding air instantly condensed into a white mist. Fei Shuang's raised left hand, at a speed visible to the naked eye, was rapidly covered with ice. In a matter of seconds, the ice cubes spread to Frost's entire arms, shoulders, and chest.

"Bang" only heard the sound of popping, and the ice was splashed everywhere. Fei Shuang sat down on the ground and spurted out a mouthful of blood with a "wow". The Brilliant Battle Bow glowed like a fish out of water, and it jumped in front of her a few times before it slowly quieted down.

Frost stared viciously at the bow she couldn't handle, muttering words that no one could understand. She suddenly screamed, jumped up from the ground, and rushed in front of the Kul mercenary group in a blink of an eye.

Catherine looked at the somewhat crazy lady in amazement, wondering why she was running towards the mercenary group.
