Chapter 451: The Evil Dragon and the Maiden
Aurora still didn't feel like it was enough to scold, so she jumped up and slapped Brienne on the back of the head, finally waking her up.
The mercenary who regained her senses took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down, then waved at the few people behind her, signaling that she was fine, and finally everyone leaned against the entrance of the cave to investigate the situation outside.
It was a huge cavern, almost the size of a football field, surrounded by bare rocks, with no ornaments or superfluous items, save for the burning candles on the walls, which illuminated the dim underground, making it easy for Brienne and the others to see what was going on.
The first thing that caught everyone's eye was a large creature that, despite its deepest part of the cavern, still exuded a terrifying aura.
Its body was as tall as a three-story building, like a small hill. The surface of this hill of muscles and bones was covered with purple-red scales and countless irregular spikes, while in other parts of the body, there were several large bloody mouths full of sharp teeth, each of which could easily fit an adult.
And that's not even the most striking thing, above its chest, two python-like necks stretch out, topped with two ugly and vicious heads, spitting black smoke out.
A pair of wings with fleshy wings and two stout tails, this is ......
"I didn't expect it to be a Chaos Two-Headed Dragon, the movement just now should have been created by it."
The old butler Yin Naruth revealed the identity of this behemoth in one mouth.
Dragons are no strangers to elves.
As a typical fantasy world, the figure of the dragon is also indispensable in the warhammer.
Dragons are one of the oldest and most primitive creatures in this world, proud, ferocious, intelligent, and loyal, and have been the most powerful creatures in the world until the arrival of the Ancient Saints.
In order to carry out the "Great Plan", the Old Saints began to adjust the climate and geography of the entire planet to make it more suitable for the reproduction of new races, and at the cost of hordes of dragons unable to adapt to the warm weather, they had to disappear from the sky, hide in the mountains and the bottom of the sea, and fall into a long hibernation.
However, this does not mean that the dragons have disappeared, and they will occasionally be seen, whether as partners in the Order camp or as the background of dragon slaying stories, and will always appear in the history or legends of other races.
Even today, dragons are present in the armies of the High Elves and Dark Elves.
In the "Dragon's Back" mountain range of the kingdom of Ulthuan, Caledor is home to a large number of dragons who are closely related to the High Elves, and occasionally the elven nobles of Caledor make a pact with the dragons to become a noble dragon prince.
In addition to ordinary dragons, there are many creatures with the word "dragon" in this world, which are inextricably linked to them, such as the black dragon.
They are the breeds bred by dark magic and dimensional stones after the dark elves stole the dragon eggs, they are more fierce and bloodthirsty, but they are not the most evil, and there is also a dragon monster that is directly transformed by the chaos energy, that is, the chaos dragon, also known as the chaos two-headed dragon.
Like other creatures twisted by chaos, the birth of the Chaos Dragon was also born from the Great Bang of the Ancient Sage, like a flood of chaotic energy swept the world, and the once proud and noble ruler of the sky was also eroded by this dirty power, distorting minds, growing a second head, and turning into a nightmarish evil existence, and their strength was even more powerful than that of ordinary dragons.
Fortunately, after thousands of years of evolution, today, except for the northern wasteland where chaotic energy is rampant, it is rare to see the figure of the Chaos Two-Headed Dragon in other places, but at this time, one appeared in front of Brienne and the others.
"Legend has it that the treasure house of the Imperial Academy of Magic imprisoned some of the chaos monsters of the Great Holy War period back then, all of which were captured by Tyclis himself, and this chaos dragon must have been left behind at that time."
Aurora's face was long gone, even for her, the creature on the other side was terrifying enough, a kind of instinctive respect for strength.
"So, hasn't it been locked up for more than a hundred years?"
It was the first time Fitandila had seen the legendary creature of the bard's song, and there was a tremor in her voice.
"The life of a dragon is very long, more than a hundred years is just a small stage for them, looking at the size, this two-headed dragon should be the Silver Moon Dragon, no, it is likely to be at the level of the Shining Star Dragon."
It was Moria, the father of the dark elves who had a black dragon called the "Great Maelstrom", the level of the Silver Moon Dragon, and she felt that the one in front of her seemed to be stronger than the one at home.
Because I often deal with dragons, for convenience, the High Elves divide dragons into my ranks.
The young dragon is called the "Sun Dragon" because of its violent temper; When he became an adult, he had a little brain, called the "Silver Moon Dragon", and most of the dragon princes of the "Caledor Kingdom" of Ulthuan controlled these two dragons.
As for the particularly powerful dragons, they are often too old to rival the stars in the sky, so they are called "Shining Star Dragons", and only the most outstanding people can be recognized by them.
In addition, there is also the legendary "Imperial Dragon", which can be regarded as the oldest existence on the planet, and is also a well-deserved elder among the Shining Star Dragons.
If the Chaos Dragon in front of him reaches the level of the Imperial Dragon, then let alone the Imperial Academy of Magic, I'm afraid that no one in the entire old world will be able to stop it.
But if it is really the "Shining Star Dragon", it is at least equal to an epic powerhouse, and even the old butler Yin Naruth is not its opponent.
It's no wonder that everyone's faces are very ugly.
"Don't worry, let's see."
Brienne, who was the most impulsive before, is now the most calm.
This ferocious monster should have just been released, and it was not immediately free, and its body was entangled with countless iron chains, and at the end of each chain, several believers wearing dark red robes of the "Broken Wheel" were dragging them to death, and dozens of mages were casting spells on it, as if they wanted to control the chaos dragon in place, rather than give it freedom.
Directly in front of the two-headed dragon was a circle of corpses arranged in special shapes, including the missing light mages, their throats all slit, and blood flowing along the ground slices.
From Brienne's position, it was clear that a large eight-pointed star pattern had been drawn on the ground by a sharp blade, which was gradually filling with blood.
This pattern is unrecognizable to no one and is a symbol of chaos.
In the center of this pattern, there are three people, among them a young girl in a sky blue robe, tied to a cross-shaped stake, seemingly unconscious, her right hand has also been cut by a sharp blade, and blood flows down the stake into the pattern at her feet.
That's why Brienne went berserk.
Although she was much older than she remembered, she still recognized it at a glance as a little bell.
