Since when has the Three Realms ceased to be the world under our control, and since when has our race become the object of taboo.
I don't know how long it took for Ying Ning to be stabbed, and a voice came into his head. The voice was low and ancient, like a voice that had been accumulated over countless years and finally burst out and broke through the dust of history and reached Ying Ning's mind.
After this whisper, there was a sound as violent as the movement of the earth's crust, followed by an explosion that sounded like the sky was cracking.
And Ying Ning's consciousness was also awakened by this groundbreaking sound.
But when Ying Ning opened his eyes, he was stunned.
In front of him was a volcanic mass. The barren land, the flowing magma and the ash smoke rising from the crater unfolded a post-apocalyptic scene in front of Yingning.
Where is this?
Ying Ning's heart tightened, he stared at everything around him, he even this place is definitely not a place where life should stay.
Yes, I, am I still alive?
Ying Ning immediately touched his chest when he reacted, but what puzzled him was that the wound on his chest had recovered.
Is my body all right? But it stabbed my heart, why? And where the hell is this?
Ying Ning thought so, and he looked at the sky.
The sky covered in volcanic ash was like night, but the circle of light in the sky was so dazzling in the night-like sky.
Is that the sun? Why is Zhang like this? What? Is it a solar eclipse?
Just as Ying Ning was thinking, he felt the change in the air pressure around him.
The sudden drop in air pressure made him uncomfortable, and then a strong wind struck, blowing the ash off the ground.
Ying Ning looked at the ground under his feet, and he was surprised to find that he was in the center of a huge altar, and the floor of the altar was carved with a huge dragon pattern, which looked like a dragon pattern.
When Ying Ning was examining this pattern, a black shadow suddenly covered Ying Ning.
"That's ...... What?!" Ying Ning reflexively looked up at something above, only to find a huge dragon body.
However, it is not quite correct to say that it is a dragon, because that dragon is obviously many dimensions larger than the normal dragon real body. The average dragon is only about fifty meters long, but the dragon in front of him has a body size of thousands of meters, and its huge body is enough to cover the sky and the sun! And its membranous wings are also different from the dragon race, a pair of flying wings of the dragon clan obviously cannot support the huge body of the spike to spread its wings, so this dragon has three pairs of huge flying wings, which cover a total area of more than ten square kilometers.
Such a huge body set off a strong wind when it flew, and its huge size covered the sky like a dark cloud. Under this shadow, Ying Ning not only has the illusion of a big dark sky.
After almost a minute, the huge beast finally flew over Ying Ning's head and traveled into the distance.
So, what is that?!
Ying Ning's eyes widened as she looked at the giant beast in the distance. He knew it was the same kind as him, but he didn't know what it was, he hadn't heard of such a large dragon race in the world.
But just when Ying Ning was surprised, the hill beside him began to move, and then a huge dragon head was lifted from there.
The dragon opened its eyes as if it had just woken up, and then lifted its massive head up, bringing out the lava that was pressing under it. Then the dragon spread its three pairs of wings as if stretching. As the wings unfurled, the scorching magma seeped outward, and the magma dripped down the three pairs of wings like rain, beautiful and dangerous.
Then the dragon stood up from the ground again, its huge body dominating Ying Ning's vision like a giant. Its skin was stained with scorching magma, glowing textures glittering in the crevices of its scales.
The beast looked into the distance, and could see many beasts like it flying in the sky. Then it shrunk its neck.
Ying Ning knew that it was the dragon's preparation as it roared.
Then the beast opened its mouth. The deafening roar reached Ying Ning's side dozens of seconds later, as if the noise that could kill people kept stimulating Ying Ning's ears.
A few minutes after the sound was heard, the same roar came from a distance.
Even if Ying Ning was a dragon, he couldn't understand the meaning of this roar. Although he tried to translate the roar into words, there was no way, many of the pronunciations he had not heard, let alone translated.
Then, as if commanded, the beast spread its wings and soared into the air, joining its flying companions.
What is this, exactly?
Ying Ning looked at the scene in front of him, he didn't know how to describe these things. It's strange but it's familiar, it seems to have been in contact with it, but it's not foreseen. All kinds of contradictory thoughts converged in Ying Ning's heart.
And at this moment, Ying Ning heard a snake's neigh.
The voice!
Ying Ning looked in the direction of the sound, he had heard the hiss before, and he would never forget the voiceβhis best friend, his eternal enemy, the Silver Plague.
However, when Ying Ning looked over, he didn't find the figure of the silver-white disaster, instead it was a giant snake that was larger than those giant beasts, and there were four glowing things on the left and right sides of the snake, like mimicry snake heads.
Although those giant beasts were a few hundred meters away from Ying Ning, Ying Ning could see that they were attacking the giant beast. Even from a distance of several hundred meters, the powerful breath felt an indelible burning sensation, as if the sun was right in front of you.
Even Ying Ning felt an unavoidable burning sensation.
But in the face of thousands of such breaths that melted everything, the great snake did not look in the slightest pain, and including the virtual heads, the nine snake heads attacked the flying beast, tearing the beast apart and devouring it.
These behemoths are attacking the serpents, and they use not only breath, but also the power of a more powerful Origin. They press their hands to the ground, and large areas of the land turn into lava. The scorching magma burned everything, including the rocks on the side.
But even in the face of the high temperature, the giant snake did not suffer at all, but intensified its attack on those giant beasts.
Wails and roars echoed through the valley of fire, and the minerals in the volcano ignited and exploded. The battle between the beast and the serpent was protracted, and night and day had no meaning at this point.
What is this, exactly?
Ying Ning thought as she looked at the battle in front of her.
"This moment is an eternal memory among my people. β
At this moment, a voice came from Ying Ning's ear.
"Who?!" Ying Ning looked around in horror, the battle was terrifying to him, and his nerves tensed to the limit when he heard the voice.
"Lost child, do you remember the eternal battle, the endless glory, and the painful silence?" the voice sounded again, but this time it made Ying Ning feel extremely kind.
"Who the hell am I? Am I still alive?" asked Ying Ning.
"Everything has its own answer, you don't have to dig into it, you don't have to explore it. Wait until the moment the veil is about to be lifted, and you will understand. β
"I, what should I do?" asked Ying Ning.
The ......'s voice was silent, but after a moment it said, "Once upon a time, we once dominated the Three Realms, we once dominated the sky, we once ruled the earth, we used to control the sea. But after all, nothing can stop the changes of history. We have been buried in the dust of history, we are history, we are the nothingness that exists in the story. But that's a young child, and you can forget the glory of the past, but you can't forget the hatred of the past. β
"Hate, what should I hate?"
"The dragons have usurped our hegemony, Xiangliu has killed our people, and the frost dragon has erased our existence. β
Frost Dragon......
Just as Ying Ning was thinking, a complicated magic circle appeared on Xiang Liu's body, and then a powerful power fluctuation was released outward with it as the center.
Many behemoths were wiped out, and incredible power reduced everything to ashes.
"I can't wait to force you to defeat that thing, but I hope you can live well, because you are the last one of us. β
"Do you want me to survive?" asked Yingning.
"As our ancestors, we have not given you a good living environment, so we are not qualified to ask you for revenge. You're the last being, and you've been with dragons for too long, so I'm no longer planning to interfere with your life. The voice said.
"Aren't we dragons?"
β...... Yes yes, yes no yes and no. The voice sighed, "The blood of creation dripped in the ocean to give birth to dragons, but some of the blood was swallowed by the free magma in the ocean, which also gave birth to us." Respect for the ocean, gratitude for the flames, love for us, etc. Young children, please remember that we are the Eclipse Dragons, the powerhouses of the past. In pursuit of absolute power, we have abandoned our dependence on spells. We were abandoned by the dragons a long time ago, but we have never forgotten that honor. β
"And finally, what brought the Eclipse Dragons to their decline?"
"We fought with Soyanagi in the past, but we failed, so we had to find a way to minimize the losses, so we decided to seek a chance to survive elsewhere. The dragons obviously don't want us to wait for these aliens to come and rob them of their living space, and they are also under threat from Xiangliu, so there is a war between us. But we failed, and the Frost Dragon wiped us out with incredible power. β
The scene begins to shift, and the former volcanic valley becomes an ice field. And on the ice field, Ying Ning saw many eclipse dragons that were frozen in ice. And in the air hovered some average-sized dragons. The dragons had wings like ice crystals, their scales were like ice cubes, and a layer of ice crystals formed in their tracks.
"That's what they are...... Frost Dragon......"
"That's right, they are incompatible with our attributes, they exist like fire and water. However, our huge bodies could not destroy those flexible things, so we lost our advantage in the face of a situation surrounded by all sides, and finally we came to an end. β
Ying Ning looked at the eclipse dragons under the ice.
"Will I be able to wake them up?"
"It's a pity for young children, it's impossible. The cold ice has frozen our hearts, everything has become watery, everything is irreversible. β
"Will the Eclipse Dragons be destroyed?" asked Ying Ning, like a child at a loss.
"That's right, even if you have offspring, the bloodline of the Eclipse Dragons will eventually be washed away by history, and the bloodlines of different races will make the bloodline that should be pure become filthy, and eventually lose the last of its original memories. The reason why you are now able to speak to me is because this is the memory of the race in your blood, and it is also the last gift we have left you. β
Ying Ning thought, he touched his chest. He knew that he had indeed been stabbed in the heart by the enemy.
"But I've been killed. The last member of the Eclipse Dragons has fallen. β
"No," the voice sounded again, "we are not the ordinary people of the dragon clan, how could we die of a broken heart?"
Ying Ning was stunned for a moment.
"It's time for you to go back. May you be able to return to your old life, or at the end you will be able to tell your descendants that you are all descendants of the Eclipse Dragons......"
After speaking, Ying Ning suddenly woke up.
He saw Quilon who had been killed, and the sword in his hand had turned into a viscous liquefied silk.
Is some of the spider silk locked up in the body? Forget it, it's alive anyway.
Ying Ning thought as he looked at the wound that had healed, and then he helped the dead Quilong close his eyes.
This was the end of Ying Ning's memories, as he lay on his bed and looked at the roof of the tent.
"Eclipse Dragons......? Is it a dream?"
Maybe it's better to ask Jue, after all, that guy doesn't seem to be that young.
Ying Ning thought about it and went to sleep.
The next day, Ying Ning and the others gathered in the military tent.
"I'll get straight to the point, the current situation is generally our advantage, but locally it is our disadvantage, and it is a big disadvantage. Jue said at the conference table.
The soldiers present all looked at Jue, an outsider, but also a possible person who could lead them to victory.
Jue glanced at the people present and said: "To put it bluntly, this is a decisive battle, if we can defeat Grayvan here, then the radical party will lose almost all of its combat effectiveness, but if we fail, then we will have to retreat back, but at the same time, we can also launch an attack like Jehuata, so that the opponent's power will be cut off from it, so that you just have to wait for the opponent's power to weaken, because the enemy's combat power in the east is almost none." β
"But the question is how to deal with twice as many enemy soldiers, right? Someone said.
Because even if Jue brought combat strength, he didn't dare to do anything to break the boat, so he didn't bring all the soldiers back. So this time, he only brought 10,000 soldiers, and the remaining 25,000 soldiers defended the city.
"The important thing is that Limo has not yet appeared, and it is not ruled out that she may come over to stir up trouble. Jue said.
"So what the hell is going to do in this battle? If you send troops directly and are ambushed by Limo, it will be very dangerous, right?"
Jue nodded, then thought for a moment and said, "But we still have very important locations in our hands, don't we? β
"Do you start from both sides? It is true that this can form a flanking attack, but you can't ignore the eastern attack from Limo. β
"In that case, how about we take a replacement attack? Divide the soldiers into two groups, let one of the teams attack each time, and then switch to the other team after a certain amount of battle damage, and so on. "Other commanders have come up with other plans.
"But in that case, you might get attacked by the enemy in the middle of the replacement, right?"
"If you can, then ......"
Jue listened to the opinions of the generals, and at the same time calculated the attack plan in his heart.
"What is certain at the moment is that the other side has already set up a presence in the city to the north. Jue spoke, pointing to a city on the map, "Maybe they're recuperating." Therefore, I recommend a stealth battle. β
After hearing this, the generals all thought about Jue's suggestion.
"Since the other party is always playing yin with us, then we don't mind having a grudge with the other side, so I suggest arranging some ambushes for a second battle. Someone said, "How about our infiltration unit make a good decoy, and if so, we can arrange some ambushes outside the city to attack the enemy that we have drawn in."
"Is it a bold idea to open up the enemy's combat strength? Jue said.
"In that case......"
