Volume 8: War and Peace Chapter 4: The End of the Song
With a crackling sound, the torches scattered on the ground finally burned out, and the whole world returned to darkness again. Like an elegant princess, Silver Moon walked into the night sky little by little, patrolling her territory surrounded by stars. In the ancient legends of the Entagri continent, Silver Moon and Blood Moon were once the children left by the two Creation Gods, it is said that in order to protect this world, Princess Silvermoon Fujiaer and her sister, Princess Bloodmoon Luo Jiaer, turned against each other, Princess Blood Moon regarded this world as the culprit who caused the death of the Creation God, and was bent on destroying the whole world to resurrect her father, and Princess Silver Moon had to seal Princess Blood Moon with her own power in order to stop all this, under the restrictions of the seal, every six days, A blood moon will have a chance to rise into the sky.
The nameless wilderness of the Burning Plains was calm again, only the green mist still filled the surrounding space and spread with the night wind, and it wouldn't be long before the death power contained in these undead plagues would make a large area around it a forbidden place for life, and there would no longer be any creatures that were not undead.
The battle that took place here didn't go much attention for a long time, and few people realized what this seemingly unimportant battle represented other than the Snake who orchestrated it all behind the scenes.
However, in the eyes of archaeologists after the change of world, this battle is a very important node, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the opening ceremony of a new era.
Although the Devouring Serpent paid a heavy price in order to win this battle, not only lost more than a quarter of the heavy armored cavalry, but also the battle loss rate of ordinary hunters who participated in the battle exceeded forty percent, although all the dwarven army was wiped out, but the heroic dwarf Kuran Iron Rock still managed to escape, but it is undeniable that this is the first time that the players have a large-scale and planned confrontation with the NPC regular army since they appeared on the continent of Entagre, and finally won the victory.
This means that players who were once not even cannon fodder in the eyes of the NPCs have mastered the power to resist them, and it also means that players have really begun to take steps to conquer the world of Ntagre.
Although few people have realized this at this time!
Of course, for Banora this battle was just one of a series of planned steps, or even a small one, for Banora, and the night's killing and death would not be satisfied with such a small sacrifice.
Even more fierce battles are burning in every corner of Blackstone Mountain.
There is only one place that is out of place in this atmosphere of mania and chaos, and that is the secret room of the Black Dragon Princess Onexia!
Nefarian, the prince of the black dragon, stared at the behemoth that was eating, and the first Void Dragon born on the continent of Entagri was feasting at this time, biting the corpse of the black dragon that he had trampled underfoot.
Onexia sat slumped aside, constantly switching her gaze back and forth between Yu Bin and the Void Dragon.
As for our protagonist, at this time, it was as if he was not facing two legendary beings, but two old friends who had not seen each other for many years, just standing on the edge of the hatching pool without any scruples, looking at the wonderful expression on Nefarian's face that was mixed with unwillingness, anger and jealousy.
"Humph! Don't think you'll get out of here alive! It was the first time that the Black Dragon Prince, who had always thought that he had everything in his own hands, had said such a thing, and it made him feel a great sense of shame, and if he could, he would have torn the abominable Hanger Langdang standing in front of him to shreds with his own hands right now, but what remnants of his sanity stopped him.
In order to compete for the dominance of the Black Dragon Clan, Nefarian was able to endure tens of thousands of years of dormancy, and it has become his nature to be rational and judge the situation. He couldn't guarantee that Yu Bin had any other means, since this humble undead could make a Void Dragon, who could guarantee that there would be no second one.
If that didn't hold Nefarian back, then Onexia, who sat slumped there, was another stone weighing on his heart.
What kind of strength does the black dragon princess with the same name as himself have, Nefarian can be said to be clear, after Sinestera loses news, this woman can still snatch a part of the black dragon legion from his hands, it is enough for Nefarian to dare not underestimate, if this time it is not for him to detect the purpose of the assassin brotherhood first, I am afraid he will not be able to fight Onexia's idea.
When faced with a difficult choice, a truly intelligent person often makes the safest choice not the most advantageous.
Nefarian flinched, he was reluctant to take any chances, especially when he realized that his enemy might be a Void Dragon plus a Legendary-level Black Dragon that wasn't much worse than himself.
What's more, there is a bigger trouble under his feet, in order to dispel Onicia's vigilance, his Black Dragon Legion is advancing in full force in the Heart of Molten Fire, and in the face of this situation, how the Fire Elemental Lord will react is also a lingering problem for Nefari.
After a cruel word, Nefarian turned away without any delay, but this did not mean that he gave up the idea of destroying these "prey", this is the nest of Black Wing, and he has the means to deal with them.
But before that, Nefarian had to deal with his own problems first, such as the "gift" left to him by the master assassin AltaΓ―r, the power of the World Tree was an out-and-out poison for the black dragon, and as time passed, the wound that was only a scaly piercing was now almost uncontrollable.
Watching Nefarian leave from the secret room, Yu Bin, who had been nervous, couldn't help but take a breath, the coercion of a legendary-level existence is not so easy to bear, not to mention that Nefarian also has the bonus of dragon power, which is also one of the reasons why Yu Bin did not hesitate to spend time on the power of the hourglass to give birth to the Void Dragon, without this big guy to top the cylinder, Yu Bin didn't dare to guarantee that he would not be seen by Nefarian because he couldn't bear the coercion. In case all his external strengths and weaknesses are exposed, Yu Bin dares to guarantee that he will definitely not survive for three seconds.
The biggest pressure is gone, but there is still an existence in the secret room that Yu Bin does not dare to relax.
"Your Royal Highness Princess Onexia, oh no, should I call you Count Presto?" Yu Bin quietly distanced himself from the Black Dragon Princess, lest this unscrupulous female dragon burst out, "Your brother has already left, are you still going to stay here and wait for him to wash the dust and catch the wind for you?" β
"Little one, who the hell are you?" Onexia stood up from the ground, lost her cover, and a magic array that was covered by Onexia's body was naturally exposed to Yu Bin.
This black dragon princess obviously has a back hand for a long time, and I don't know when, she is already ready for the Jedi counterattack, and she deliberately uses a slumped posture to cover up this purple glowing magic array.
Yu Bin couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, these NPCs with high intelligence really can't be underestimated at all.
"A humble undead with no name!" Yu Bin got closer to the Void Dragon who was eating with his head down, and the Void Dragon who was swallowing pieces of meat obviously also noticed Yu Bin's approach, and couldn't help but raise his head and let out a threatening roar at Onexia who was trying to come over, due to the time hourglass, the Void Dragon that was spawned was not controlled by Yu Bin, but it was obviously closer to him, especially when there was another creature with a powerful aura present.
Seeing that this Void Dragon regarded herself as a great enemy, Onexia couldn't help but feel a tightness in her chest, you know, these dragon eggs were carefully selected by her own hands, but the creatures that hatched now turned their faces and didn't recognize people, and no one would be happy to change them.
But now she knew that she didn't have the ability to fight against this Void Dragon, so she had to stop: "Nameless? I don't think so! To be able to break into this secret chamber unharmed, to give birth to the Void Dragon that I have worked so hard to cultivate, and to be fearless under the dragon power of Nefarian, is not something that a humble undead with no name can do! β
"You've won the prize, Your Highness!"
"How about it, do you want to come to me to do something? You have the ability to give birth to dragon eggs, and I have the means to cultivate the Void Dragon, as long as you are willing to help me, it won't be long before I can take the whole world into the palm of my hand, and then you can do whatever you want, whether it is to become the emperor of a country or the ruler of the undead clan, I can answer you! β
A person's ability is important, which means what kind of value he can have! If Yu Bin didn't have the ability to spawn the Void Dragon Egg, then Onexia would never say a word to him, let alone communicate with Yu Bin in such a low voice.
Regarding Onexia's purpose, Yu Bin couldn't help but sigh! To be honest, if he wasn't a reborn, maybe he would have chosen to join forces with this black dragon princess, after all, for the current Entagre Continent, the Void Dragon is really an existence that is almost impossible to resist, and the Void Dragon Clan, which is almost immune to any attack except the Void Power, can be said to be the natural nemesis of all creatures on the Entagri Continent, and it is no wonder that this Black Dragon Princess wants to obtain this power with all her might.
But it's a pity that Yu Bin, who knows what will happen in the future, has no intention of joining forces with Onexia from the beginning, let alone joining forces, he will even stop this sinister female dragon from realizing her crazy plan at any cost.
You must know that the reason why the Void Dragon looks close to invincibility is precisely because of the Void Energy in its body, which is disordered and chaotic, and can be said to be one of the origin energies at the beginning of the birth of this universe, which fundamentally conflicts with the rules and order on the Entagri Continent.
The entire Entagri world is like a complete individual, and the various energies in its body operate in an orderly manner according to the established rules, light and darkness, life and death, all of which are incompatible, and the plane barrier covering the world plays a protective role, so that all energies that do not conform to the laws of the world cannot harm the Entagri continent.
And this practice of Onexia is like injecting a poison directly into the human body, because the Void Dragon that appeared on the continent of Entagre has been recognized by the origin of the world, the void energy contained in it cannot cause the rejection of the rules of the world, so that this chaotic and disordered energy will be like a poison, destroying the rules and order of the entire world from the inside, and eventually leading to the destruction of the entire world.
It is for this reason in the previous life that after Marshal Windsol revealed Onexia's identity, the humans would expelle the she-dragon at all costs, and even launched troops to attack Onexia's lair, a hidden lair near the Black Sea, in order to prevent her from successfully hatching the Void Dragon.
In the previous life, this incident even created a super-large copy of Onexia's lair, and countless players finally broke through Onexia's lair on the Black Coast under the coercion and lure of NPCs, destroying those unhatched Void Dragon Eggs in one fell swoop, forcing the Black Dragon Princess to flee in a hurry, and finally died at the hands of Bartholomeo, a legendary hero of mankind, creating his title of dragon slayer.
Of course, humanity also paid a heavy price for this, and Prince Rasfir who was corrupted by Onexia eventually became another "Arthas", although there was no Lich King in the continent of Entagre, Prince Rasfir who had fallen into a death knight still managed to kill his father, turning most of the Arnas Empire into a realm of the undead, leaving humanity devastated.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess's kindness really scares me, but do you want to think about your own safety first?" Yu Bin said that although he had made up his mind to refuse Onexia's invitation, it did not mean that he would let go of this female dragon, God knows what else this conspirator would plan behind the scenes, in order to completely eliminate this hidden danger, Yu Bin had already planned the fate of this black dragon princess.
You know, whether it's for riding or "riding", Onexia is the top "mount"!
"Humph!" didn't expect Yu Bin to be so ignorant, Onexia snorted coldly and was ready to teach this little undead a lesson, although the void dragon made her jealous now, but it was no problem to kill Yu Bin with a little injury.
If only she has the time!
The sound coming from outside the secret room made Onexia, who was about to make a move, frown, glanced at Yu Bin coldly, and quickly changed his expression to a kind appearance: "Since you don't want to, I won't force it!" But I still hope you think about it, whenever you figure it out, you can come to the Black Coast to find me, the door to cooperation between us is always open! β
"Thank you for your kindness! I hope we will meet again soon, Your Highness! Yu Bin said with a smile.
That's right, it won't be long before he and Onexia will meet again!
Unlexia, who didn't listen to the deep meaning of Bin's words, looked at the Void Dragon unwillingly, walked to the side of the secret room, and smashed it against the wall, a finger-thick stone slab fell off the wall, and a magic array was carved on the stone slab, which was obviously the teleportation array that Onexia left for himself to escape.
As the white light flashed, the black dragon princess Onexia disappeared into the secret room, and the voice coming from outside the secret room was getting closer and closer, and Yu Bin could hear that it was Nefarian's dog, the legendary two-headed hellhound Chlomagus.
It was clear that the large dog had been freed from the effects of the potion of madness and was being driven by his master to prepare to dedicate its prey to Nefarian.
Yu Bin glanced back at the Void Dragon, the big guy who had just hatched not long ago began to enjoy the meal in front of him again after Onexia left, anyway, Yu Bin didn't have any threat in his eyes.
Shaking his head helplessly, although he didn't look forward to it, the Void Dragon that had taken all the sands of time to spawn had to give up, which still made Yu Bin feel distressed, but he was not an indecisive person.
Quickly fished out a few dragon eggs in the best condition from the hatching pool, Yu Bin carried Prince Rasfil, who was unconscious in the corner, on his shoulder, took out a teleportation scroll and tore it open, as for the two dragonmen who escorted the prince, they had already been killed in order to protect Onexia, of course, the murderers who killed them were now lying on the ground, swallowed by the Void Dragon little by little.
White light flashed, leaving only the dazed Void Dragon and the messy scene in the secret room!
