Chapter 501: Evolution (Medium)
The frequent arrival of large ships across the sea on the west coast, the heavily guarded transportation lines of Black Rock City, the severance of communication with the outside world by the Brute Hammer Dwarves, and the disappearance of the Black Dragon Emperor...... The recent changes in the Northern Empire, coupled with rumors, clues and hearsay that filled the city, made many people unable to sit still, and tried in vain to break the law and enter Mount Cames, which was under strict martial law by the Blackwing Empire.
Most of them are ghostly adventurers, but also some spies from other countries, assassins waiting for revenge, careerists trying to overthrow the rule of the Black Dragon, and of course, followers of the gods.
They died quickly - the first to try to enter Mount Cames were hacked to death before they could see what was inside, the adventurer's professional skills were useless in the face of well-trained orc soldiers, and once they stepped into the forbidden area, their throats were inextricably slit, and their bodies were separated and shut.
"Intruder, Ruga!"
Appearing in front of them were orc warriors armed with axes, armored, and horned helmets, all dressed in uniform shape, each two tall, with knotted muscles all over their bodies, and most importantly, brown skin......
The Empire's callous treatment of intruders made them stand in terror, and the fierce orc army became the outermost cordon of Mount Cames, these orcs were very numerous and well-defended, and this kind of war-level surveillance was daunting, and it also aroused the curiosity of adventurers, but after seeing the lessons of the past, they decided to abandon the plan of physical intrusion and use other methods to spy on Mount Cames.
For example, magic.
This proved to be the correct idea, and those adventurers who knew how to use spells saw landscapes that no one else saw, but they were soon struck by the enemy, for there were more fierce enemies waiting for them in the inner layers of Mount Cames
- Radiant Dragon.
Most of the predecessors of these radiant dragons were dragon beasts that did not understand magic, and they failed to grow up, and even the Black Emperor could not change this fact, but after the radiation distortion, these fierce guys had an unusual keen perception of magic, and they could even follow the trajectory of the spell to pull out the perpetrators from behind the curtain and devour them.
The blood-stained cordon cut off almost everyone's prying eyes, but there always seemed to be an exception to everything, and an uninvited guest managed to cross the barriers and enter the real core of Mount Cames, the sleeping place of the Black Dragon Emperor.
Aglalon Ramorahan.
In fact, the Lich left his Wraith Swamp early on, and his curiosity about the Alien Dragon drove him to make the Northern World the first stop on his journey, and spent money to buy a manor in the Northland Royal City, where he lived for a while under the eyes of the Dragon Emperor without anyone knowing.
Two days ago, Aglalon's servant had told him some interesting information, so he decided to take a look.
Agralon entered Mount Cames from the main road, strolling like a sojourner, and the orcs, canines, and radidragons he encountered along the way ignored him, and the lich lightly crossed the cordon.
A cold wind blew, and Nero, who was lying at the entrance of the mountain furnace, suddenly stood up, raised his head, twitched his nose and sniffed, then let out two mutters of unknown meaning, and then fell back to the ground, squinting and continuing to wag his tail.
Agra Long has entered the mountain furnace.
"This family member is quite powerful, I don't know where I got it." The lich stared at Nero's mane standing on his back for a moment, then turned his head to look at the scene inside the furnace.
The next moment, the lich had a rare mood swing, and the soul fire in his eye socket shook: "This is ......"
An exaggeratedly large beast buried its body in the magma, and the scale epidermis of many parts of its body peeled off, revealing some of the flesh soaked in the magma, as if it was sleeping, its monstrous head lying flat on the ground, and the fangs protruding from its jaw shone with black light.
"This energy is...... Molten Heart! Aglalong stared at his surroundings, "What is this guy doing?" ”
In the magma pool, the heart of the molten fire has all turned into a liquid state, flowing into the body of the black dragon along the wound of peeling off the scales, and the next moment there is an echo of the shock, the collision horns in the air are fiercely chiseled on the body of the black dragon, embedding new scales into the body, and in the high and low workbenches on both sides, countless dwarves are leaning their necks and hitting the body of the black dragon with iron hammers, making a clanging sound, and the molten heart integrated into the body is combined with the dead iron embedded in the body, and transformed into a new substance.
"This monster is rebuilding its own case?"
Agra Long speculated that when he first met the black dragon, he had seen that something was wrong with the allomorphic dragon's physical condition, and its ** had an irreconcilable rejection reaction with those strange scales on the surface, but what Aglalon didn't expect was that the monster's way of dealing with it would be to forcibly strip off the original case and reforge an armor for himself.
"What a bold and courageous choice." The lich exclaimed, he had never heard of a dragon doing such a "cruel" thing to himself in his life, and sure enough, the behavior logic and thinking of the alien dragon and the real dragon were completely different, and these guys from the other world were all difficult to deal with.
However, most of the dragons that exposed their sleeping positions did not end well, especially in the presence of a lich.
"It should be weak now, right?" Agra Long pondered, "What would the Black Emperor, who could compete with the gods in the main material realm, look like if he were transformed into an undead creature, should you give it a try?" ”
The idea had barely risen before it could be implemented, when a long whistle suddenly came out of the nostrils of the sleeping beast—a sharp screech that echoed through the chamber with a high-speed stream of air from the nostrils of the black dragon. Then, the sound of deep breathing sounded throughout the mountain furnace, inhaling, exhaling, inhaling, exhaling......
"Is this guy waking up? What's going on, the dragon's sleeping cycle is obviously measured in years. Agron was taken aback.
On the surface of the black dragon's body, those newly embedded dark scales began to glow, and the exposed parts without scales also flowed with luster, and the dwarves shouted to each other and retreated, and the entire mountain furnace reverberated with strong life energy.
Caesar Targaryen awoke.
The Black Dragon Monarch opened his cobweb-shaped, dark golden vertical eyes and raised his head from the magma.
"Did he find me?" Aglalong stared at the black dragon's massive pupils, realizing that the other party was looking at him.
"It's you, lich."
A repetitive voice came from the dragon's throat, "You've just become ill towards me, haven't you?" I feel it—you, disturbing my slumber! ”
