Volume 1 The Curtain of the Night Chapter 111 Black
The golden pupils were as dazzling as the sun at the moment.
Xia Zuo's pupils looked straight ahead, and his spiritual power spread out like a tide, leading to an unknown distance.
Maybe practice makes perfect.
Xia Zuo found that he didn't need to close his eyes and perceive carefully, just by keeping his eyes open, he could see the strange black and white world, which could be easily tracked.
"Left. Natsuzo kicked his feet and sped away in the direction of the left.
Seeing this, the others also followed Xia Zuo's footsteps at the same time.
... ...
About an hour later.
Xia Zuo's position has long been far away from their original position, and they are still changing at a very fast speed, Xia Zuo has not stopped to perceive and track them halfway along the way, and keeps speeding forward.
Xia Zuo could feel that the aura of the subspecies black dragon was getting stronger and stronger.
He's right around here.
Xia Zuo can be sure.
Xia Zuo frowned suddenly, he found that the clue connecting the subspecies black dragon suddenly changed again, not that slight change, but the entire clue was bent.
At the same time, there was also an endless dark fog in Xia Zuo's perspective, and Xia Zuo's vision was instantly blocked.
He found me.
But...... I'm not going to let you run away this time, even though it's a bit risky...... After all, this method has been used and discovered last time.
But there's no time for me to hesitate any longer.
Xia Zuo gritted his teeth slightly, took another deep breath, and his spiritual power rushed towards the dark barrier in an instant.
I always feel unreliable...... But hopefully Riley's dragon language will still work this time, so that I can break through this dark barrier that blocks tracking perception.
I don't want to be attacked like last time.
Unexpectedly, while Xia Zuo was talking to himself, Xia Zuo's mental power still broke through this dark barrier that hindered perception tracking as smoothly as last time, and Riley's dragon language still worked.
Xia Zuo's vision returned to normal again, and in the black and white world, the most dark and profound clue was unusually curved at this time, going around again and again, not knowing where it finally led.
Has the location changed again...... But that's not going to bother me.
Xia Zuo felt a slight pain in his head, but he still increased the output of his spiritual power, and his spiritual power quickly traced back to the past along the clue connecting the subspecies black dragon.
At the same time, Xia Zuo's body was also moving rapidly, leading the way for the people behind him.
The double consumption of mental and physical strength at the same time made Xia Zuo's forehead full of sweat, and his face gradually turned pale.
But Xia Zuo still moved forward desperately and quickly.
Desperately oppress yourself.
Not fast enough...... Not fast enough...... Not fast enough!
I need more speed!
Between Xia Zuo and the subspecies black dragon, he suddenly fell into a state of tug-of-war.
Xia Zuo desperately chased the subspecies black dragon, and the subspecies black dragon continued to distance himself from Xia Zuo, who was following him.
... ...
After a tug-of-war, the massive consumption of energy caused both sides to gradually slow down.
The tug-of-war between the two sides seems to be coming to an end.
The clue connecting the subspecies black dragon suddenly stopped changing, and the position of the subspecies black dragon began to be fixed, and he stopped.
As if he understood that it was useless to continue hiding like this, he stopped.
He waited for Natsuzo and them to arrive.
Realizing this, Xia Zuo couldn't help but pause and suddenly stopped.
Do you want to go now?
He would be willing to stop there, which means that there is no possibility of a peaceful solution between us and him, right?
In a short moment, Xia Zuo made up his mind, his body moved, and he led everyone to the place where the subspecies black dragon stopped.
A moment later.
Xia Zuo finally came to the location of the subspecies black dragon, and behind Xia Zuo, there were also soul hunters such as Anos and other soul descendants, if you count Griman and Dral, a total of twenty-two soul descendants.
And what these twenty-two Soul Descendants are about to face is ...... A subspecies black dragon in a severely injured state.
"Come out. Xia Zuo stared at the unusually quiet ruins in front of him and whispered, "I know you're waiting for us. ”
After a brief silence, a dark shadow suddenly expanded in the depths of the ruins, occupying all of Natsuzo's sight.
The black shadow continued to spread, and after a moment, it slowly came to a standstill.
In the sight of Xia Zuo's people, this huge black shadow dispersed, revealing a huge and terrifying black dragon.
That's ...... Subspecies Black Dragon.
Xia Zuo was finally able to truly meet this subspecies of black dragon.
A descendant of a true black dragon, a legendary soul creature that has inherited the powers of spirit and death, darkness and destruction.
The wings of the black dragon seem to be able to cover the sky and the earth, and the huge golden vertical pupils reveal the ancient mystery and majesty, although the black dragon is scarred and the scales are missing, but this still cannot hide the strength and majesty of the black dragon.
It's a creature that's almost legendary.
Xia Zuo involuntarily sighed in his heart.
When Anos and the others saw the subspecies black dragon in front of them, they all fell silent and quiet, and their eyes were full of varying degrees of awe.
It's a reverence for an ancient and powerful creature.
Riley was unusually quiet at this time, without the excitement of finally seeing the subspecies black dragon, there was a certain light dancing in his eyes, quietly a little weird, did not speak, and then turned his gaze to everyone.
As for Griman and Dral, the two acquired soul descendants.
Griman was in fine shape, but his face was a little pale, obviously he didn't expect that the legendary creature like the dragon really existed.
Draal was already too frightened to stand on his feet, and he was obviously even more surprised, and there was a certain despair and fear in his eyes in addition to shock.
I'm afraid it's really going to be over now, how are we going to deal with this kind of monster?
Running away or something...... It doesn't exist anymore.
After a moment of silence, the subspecies black dragon finally took the lead in speaking.
"I should have thought of it...... I still haven't been able to avoid you. The subspecies black dragon's huge golden vertical pupils stared at the nearest Xia Zuo and sighed with a slight regret.
"I should have sealed your spirit directly last time...... That might not be the case now. ”
“...... Although I may still not be able to. The subspecies black dragon whispered.
“...... I thank you for showing mercy to my men last time. Xia Zuo said seriously, "But...... We're sorry, but for the sake of the whole of Clara, we can't keep you in hiding in the city of Clara. ”
"Even if you are not hostile to us, your presence itself will bring us more hostility - other calamities, whether ghosts, or phantoms, or even restless people within our soulborn. ”
"So...... I'm so sorry. ”
"I don't want to fight you either. ”
"If you can, I want you to leave Clara on your own initiative. Xia Zuo said seriously.
After Xia Zuo finished speaking, he quietly looked at the terrifying subspecies black dragon in front of him, and did not make any other movements.
The subspecies black dragon also looked at Xia Zuo in silence.
In fact, when Xia Zuo tracked down here and discovered the subspecies black dragon, Xia Zuo did not have much hostility towards the subspecies black dragon.
Because Xia Zuo could perceive that the subspecies black dragon didn't seem to have the idea of fighting.
And the subspecies black dragon, he didn't do any actual damage to Clara.
When they encountered Edith, they didn't kill them. (Although it is also possible that Edith and the others managed to hide without being killed, at least on the surface, the subspecies Black Dragon did not kill even a single Soul Descendant or Human.) )
As for the missing people at the construction site...... There is also Big Brother Steele, who also seems to have nothing to do with the subspecies Black Dragon, and may have a relationship with the Fallen.
Do we really want to eliminate Clara because he might be hostile to him?
"Xia Zuo, let me come. Seeing Xia Zuo confronting the subspecies black dragon, Anos walked up to Xia Zuo's side, gently patted Xia Zuo's shoulder, and said.
"Well, please, Captain. Xia Zuo looked sideways at Anos and couldn't help but nod.
Anos stood in front of the subspecies black dragon instead of Xia Zuo, collected the soul energy on his body, and politely saluted the subspecies black dragon.
"I'm willing to trust Xia Zuo's judgment. Arnos's face was serious.
"And your power is very strong, and we don't want to be your enemy if we can. ”
"So my opinion is the same as that of Xia Zuo. ”
"I hope that there will be a peaceful resolution between us. ”
"The real enemy of our Soulborn should be ghosts, not you, as a dragon. ”
"So I hope you can leave Clara on your own initiative, and we'll help you as much as we can. ”
"Although this is just my personal opinion with Xia Zuo, I am sure that they will agree. ”
Anos said, and at the same time looked at the other soul descendants behind him, only to see that none of the members of the Night Veil wanted to refute Anos, although Astron of the shadow order had a somewhat regretful expression, regretting that he could not fight against a powerful creature such as the subspecies black dragon, but for the sake of the overall situation, he still had no opinion.
Hunter, as a senior, naturally understood what Anos meant, and nodded as well.
Elena of the Lighthouse hesitated for a moment, as if they were still thinking about the previous raid by the subspecies black dragon, but finally nodded lightly in agreement.
"We all have no problem with a peaceful resolution of this matter. Anos withdrew his gaze and calmly stared directly at the intimidating golden vertical pupils of the subspecies black dragon, "You saw it too. ”
"And what do you think?" asked Anos.
“...... In this way, as a black dragon, it is always impossible to avoid bringing calamity to the lives around him......" The subspecies black dragon looked at the Arnos people in front of him and laughed at himself.
The ancestor of the subspecies of the black dragon is the true black dragon Nidhogg, a symbol of calamity and despair, and it has been claimed that contact with the descendants of the black dragon will bring disaster.
“...... I have no opinion, and I didn't intend to stay in this city for long. ”
"The reason why I stayed in this city was only because I found traces of the Holy Spirit Water that could heal my injuries. ”
"But now it seems that I can't find it. The subspecies black dragon shook its head regretfully.
When Edith heard this, her face couldn't help but change slightly, and her eyes moved to Xia Zuo.
Edith actually has a little bit of Holy Spirit water on her body now...... It's just that the object she wants to leave is Xia Zuo, not the subspecies black dragon.
I don't know...... Will my brother choose to give him the water of the Holy Spirit?
Although to be honest, I still hope that my brother will use it himself.
After all...... That man......
Edith shook her head and walked over to Shazo.
"Brother, this is the water of the Holy Spirit that I found. Edith smiled playfully, and in the surprised gaze of everyone, she took out a small bottle containing a clear and transparent liquid, "This is probably a surprise I want to give your brother." ”
"It can bring out the power in you to a greater extent, brother. ”
"So now...... What would you choose, brother?"
"This ......" Xia Zuo couldn't help but be stunned, took the small bottle of Holy Spirit Water in Edith's hand, and reacted after a while.
What should I choose? drink the water of the Holy Spirit to make myself stronger, or give it to the subspecies black dragon to let it go?
Answer...... I know very well.
"Of course it's for him. Xia Zuo paused and said seriously to Edith, "Although I feel a little disappointed by you, I think ...... He needs this bottle of Spirit Water more than I do. ”
"Aren't you worried about hurting you when he recovers?" Edith blinked.
"He won't, spiritually, I believe in him. Xia Zuo couldn't help but smile, "Besides, I don't believe that he can recover from his injuries after drinking, as long as he can get away from Clara." ”
"That's right. Edith smiled slightly, "Then it's up to my brother." ”
"Well, thank you, Edith. Xia Zuo smiled and rubbed Edith's head, causing Edith to lose her mind for a moment, and then Edith jerked Xia Zuo's hand away.
"It's not tall. Edith said seriously.
"Haha, good. Xia Zuo couldn't cry or laugh.
Xia Zuo took the Holy Spirit Water and walked towards the subspecies Black Dragon, preparing to hand over this bottle of Holy Spirit Water to the Subspecies Black Dragon.
However.
At the moment when Xia Zuo walked towards the subspecies black dragon, a figure suddenly flashed past Xia Zuo at a speed that no one could react to, and took away the Holy Spirit Water in Xia Zuo's hand!
"Who is it?!" Xia Zuo was stunned for a moment, and then shouted.
"Huh...... It's me. ”
"Natsusa...... You guys really made me watch a good show. The figure that had taken away the water of the Holy Spirit of Xia Zuo appeared on the high ground of a building in the ruins, looking at everyone condescendingly, jokingly mocking.
Xia Zuo and the others couldn't help but look at the owner of the figure standing on a high place.
It was a handsome man in black, square-rimmed glasses and dressed in black.
The man smiled, casually removed his glasses, and dropped them, revealing a pair of dark, deep, terrifying eyes.
It's like a black demon god.
The person in front of him is actually ...... The dragon research expert from the council's headquarters.
Riley Erwin.
