34. The battle after a thousand years
more
Stepping into the Dragon Sleep Temple, he was greeted by a strange coldness mixed with bloody gas.
No feelings, no ups and downs, calm and brutal coldness.
It was like a barren land soaked in blood, endless as far as the eye could see, and a desolate wind blew.
In the wind, there is an inexplicable pressure.
"A thousand years ago...... It was from this path that Yagami would walk through to the final battlefield......" Roy, who was walking in the middle of the procession, noticed that the walls on both sides of the temple were covered with wild and rough murals with "color" tones, and looked at them one by one curiously, "You see, the murals here record the events before the outbreak of the Human Dragon War. Adventure 34000
"Humans and dragons lived in peace at first, with dragons ruling the earth and looking down on humans with majesty, while humans worshipped dragons and begged for protection...... But as humans multiplied and grew stronger, they gradually began to rebel against the rule of the dragons......"
"I've heard the 'bard' poet say this history!" Wang Hu grabbed the topic with great interest, "In order to resist the brutal dragon that feeds on people, the oppressed people raised the battle banner dyed with blood, and they fought against the dragon from generation to generation, no matter what sacrifice they paid, they never retreated......"
"Very good story." Shen Qi sneered sarcastically, "But I don't know how many stars the average combat power of humans in ancient times was, how can a 'successive' and 'generational' fight with a dragon clan with an average combat power of six stars or even higher?" ”
Wang Hu was speechless.
The strength of the human beings in the ancient era of the Sealing Sword in the world is similar to that of the current humans, even if there are a few masters, the top sky is a five-star level, and in the face of a few six-star dragons, you may still be able to rely on the tactics of the sea of people to fight, but according to the legend, there were groups of dragons at that time!
The crowd tactics are indeed very strong, but what if the other side is also outnumbered - no, it is "dragons and many people"?
"Actually...... The so-called 'Battle of the Human Dragons' was just a raid, a Terran raid against the Dragons, and a failed raid. Roy continued to read the mural, "While some of the weaker dragons were successfully injured and eliminated, many more escaped and soon began to fight back. ”
"The Divine Dragon Clan, which is friendly with the human race, has lived in seclusion, and the Ice Dragon Clan has led the Fire Dragon Clan to fight with the human race, and every day the strong man or giant dragon of the human race has fallen, and the blood stains the earth red."
"I think this kind of fight is brain-dead." Wang Hu snatched the conversation again, "What problem can't be solved through negotiation?" In the final analysis, both sides are just aiming to dominate the world! ”
No one paid attention to him this time.
"In order to reduce casualties and win a safe victory, the dragons created the Demon Dragon, and used the power of the Demon Dragon to create a large number of cannon fodder servants with a little dragon power, called the 'Battle Dragon'."
This sentence made everyone's hearts sink - it turned out that what they had defeated so far was just a group of cannon fodder.
"The demon dragon that led the battle dragon army caused great damage to the human race, and in order to fight the demon dragon, the human race did its best to create a batch of weapons with unimaginable power, called the 'Divine General Weapon'."
"The battle between the god generals and the demon dragon destroyed the laws of the entire world, turning the vast land southwest of the continent into a barren desert, and the dragon clan could not adapt to the world after being changed, and they were defeated one after another, and finally completely defeated and left this world." This time it was Cheng Peng who answered, "King Saifir said this history. ”
Roy nodded.
"Sephir ...... Although the thing was wrong, at least the truth was told. ”
【Team】Wang Hu: When did Safir say this? Why am I not impressed?
Cheng Peng: Well, I'm not impressed.
He Ming: Are you lying to him? Grand Adventure 34000
Cheng Peng: I'm just retelling the background setting of this world.
【Team】Wei Ye: You have learned badly!
【Team】Bai Yu: Don't chirp crookedly, save some effort to fight!
【Team】Yue Feng: I would like to ask an important question...... Didn't you say that there were a lot of treasures in the dragon's lair? Why don't I see anything of value in this temple!!
Being reminded by Yue Feng like this, everyone noticed that the huge temple was actually empty, except for the relief murals on the stone pillars that supported the temple and perhaps had some cultural relics value, it could really be called the four walls of the family, no wonder even Yue Feng and other search experts couldn't find any oil and water.
It's also very reasonable to think about it carefully, this Dragon Sleep Temple was a battlefield back then, even if there were any good things, they would have been looted long ago, where would it be their turn!
It's just that when Cheng Peng pointed out this, Yue Feng's expression was really extremely tragic, like a hot-blooded boy who fell in love with a beautiful witch girl at the shrine, but was told by the second man in the white robe who passed by, "Although it is beautiful, it is a man......
Life is unsatisfactory, and it is often seven or eight times out of ten!
The group continued to move forward in the empty temple, the heavy and oppressive atmosphere became stronger and stronger, the air seemed to be condensed into an entity, and malice seemed to seep out from every floor, pillar, and corner of the temple, and there was a growing coercion, so that the people who lacked strength gradually couldn't even breathe.
After another while, the girls of White Wings could no longer resist this terrible coercion, and Chu Fengge sighed and asked them to go back and join the large army.
"Don't force yourself, you go and protect Lady Ninian, this is also a very important task."
Everyone knew that she was just a simple comfort, but the girls who were full of frustration were comforted by her, and their spirits immediately lifted up a lot.
Cheng Peng nodded secretly - as he spent more and more time together, he gradually understood why Chu Fengge could still maintain the cohesion of the team in such an unfavorable environment.
A lot of times, the led don't really need what the leader really does for them, all they need is respect.
The act of "putting on a show" may seem funny, but it is an important means of strengthening the collective centripetal force - if a leader is so ruthless that he is not even willing to do something as simple as putting on a show, then he will not be able to go far.
People are not machines.
The dispute between Roy and Lilina woke Cheng Peng up from his imagination, only to see Roy shaking his head solemnly, Lilina's face was full of grievances and tears.
"What's wrong?" He asked in a low voice.
"Roy wants Lilina to go back first, but Lilina doesn't want to." Shen Qi, who was walking near him, also replied in a low voice, "But it seems that it is only a matter of time before he is convinced." ”
"What a pity! Generally speaking, the heroine sacrificed heroically during the Armageddon, and then the male protagonist exploded to destroy the boss, which is a scene that the masses like to see! Wei Ye said ill-intentionedly, "If the heroine doesn't follow, wouldn't it be necessary to sacrifice a lot of comrades-in-arms, and only when only the protagonist is left can he explode?" ”
"Crow's beak!"
"If you don't say a word, will you die!" Grand Adventure 34000
"If I hang up, I'll ask you for a task reward!"
Everyone was chattering against Wei Ye, and Roy, as Shen Qi expected, successfully persuaded Lilina to let the girl magician, who seemed to be sure to become the heroine of the Sealed Sword World, leave the team and return to the outside of the temple.
This little "interlude" did not hinder everyone's progress for long, and the streamlined team quickly moved on.
It's just that now this team has shrunk greatly compared to before, because the coercion is too serious, and the horn "color" that has not reached the four-star cannot continue to stay in the team at all, so now the rest are all masters - even Shen Qi, who has already stepped into the four-star with half a foot, has to take his teammates to accompany Lilina back, and only the four-star necromancer John in their team remains.
The original team of hundreds of people suddenly only had nineteen people left.
Cheng Peng and his entourage of fifteen people, the protagonist Roy, Chu Fengge of White Wing, and White Feather, John of the Hawkeye Squad.
This is the team that is going to the deepest part of the Dragon Sleep Temple to defeat the fire dragon Ya'an, who calls himself the Dragon King.
The sound of chaotic footsteps echoed through the empty temple, and the surroundings slowly darkened.
When I looked up, there were no windows in the dome.
The dreary atmosphere made everyone unwilling to speak, and the monotonous scene and the sound of unchanging footsteps made some of the less determined people gradually begin to doze off.
Cheng Peng did not relax his vigilance because of the calm around him, and was still paying careful attention to his surroundings.
No matter how monotonous and boring it is, can it be more boring and unbearable than sitting in the ruins, using small shovels and small brushes to clean up little by little, looking for cultural relics that may not exist?
His gaze swept over the temple again and again, carefully guarding against any danger that might arise.
In the dim light, everything seemed to shake, especially the shadows—the shadows of men, the shadows of weapons, the shadows of pillars...... Like a snaking black snake, swimming restlessly.
Cheng Peng's gaze swept over the murals, and between the mottled shadows, the reliefs on the stone pillars seemed to have life, and they were ready to move. Even the carved dragons gradually came to life, and one by one they opened their bright red eyes—
Wrong!
Cheng Peng suddenly reacted, roared, rushed out, and stabbed out the ice and snow spear.
After all, he was a step too late.
At some point, the fire dragons who appeared in the temple opened their bloody mouths and spewed out deadly flames.
Everyone who was awakened by Cheng Peng tried to resist, but more people failed to come back to their senses in time.
And even more deadly, the one that is particularly strong among these dragons.
The scales on its body were red and black, revealing a metallic luster, and the pieces were surprisingly large and terrifyingly thick, almost like a grinding disc!
Cheng Peng had seen the fire dragons that had changed by the dragon race, and he thought that those fire dragons were already very strong, but unexpectedly, in front of this fire dragon, those fire dragons immediately became small. Not only did its body only reach its thighs, but its originally majestic body looked bloated and dull compared to it, and even the scales on its body looked dull and dull, and the pieces were pitifully thin.
Oh my! He had noticed that the scales of those fire dragons, no matter their size or thickness, were almost the same as ordinary shields!
Equally shuddering was its sharp teeth, each of which glowed faintly in the dim light - a light without any temperature, cold and fierce, like the cold light of a blade.
But each of these "blades" has the height of about a person. Cheng Peng had no doubt that if it landed in its mouth, even if it was wearing the strongest armor and holding the heaviest shield, it would definitely be easily bitten to pieces, and even a relatively large part could not be found.
Compared to it, the teeth of the fire dragons before were simply shoddy imitations, as ridiculous as sharpened wooden sticks.
Its limbs are slender, but they are not as slender as the white dragon that Lady Ninian had changed from before, but are covered with strong muscles, and you can feel the power contained in these muscles just by "looking" - it is the fierceness contained under the calm, enough to destroy any enemy that stands in its way!
And at the tip of its tail, there are several bone fragments like sharp blades, and the edges of the bone fragments are still flashing bright red, I don't know if they are shining with fire or if they themselves are terrifying weapons containing the power of fire.
No matter which one it is, just looking at the length of these bone fragments that are at least one meter long, Cheng Peng has made up his mind that he must not be touched by them.
As long as you touch it, you will be in a different place......
Compared with these various physical differences, its eyes are even more special - when Cheng Peng looked at it, it was also staring at everyone with those golden eyes, but there was no madness or murderous aura in its eyes, just complete calm, cold calm.
It was as if it was not looking at its own enemies, but only on the side of the road.
But instead of doing nothing, it opened its mouth and spewed out a raging flame.
Unlike the rest of the fiery dragons that spewed fireballs, what it spewed out was a cone-shaped flame that almost enveloped a range of hundreds of meters.
Before the flames could reach his body, Cheng Peng realized that something was wrong - the flames spewed by this fire dragon were not at the same level as the dragon fire he had seen before, and they were even more powerful than the flames spewed out by the fire unicorn in the Lingyun Cave - the flames of the fire unicorn carried a domineering aura of burning the sky and boiling the sea, but the power itself was not very terrifying, but the flames spewed out by this fire dragon did not have any special temperament, but they were very simple.
Hot!
Just one word, hot!
The blazing flames swept across the earth, invincible everywhere he went, Cheng Peng desperately instilled Xuan Bing's true strength into the Ice and Snow Spear, and almost swung the Azure Spear into a ball of blue light, which could only protect a small area.
Behind him are Liu Xueji, who is in charge of treatment, and Yun Yu, who calls himself "Ten Seconds Superman" - because they were nicknamed the Four Fools at the beginning, they have a good relationship, so those two people subconsciously moved closer to him.
This act saved their lives.
Because when the flames dissipated, except for the eight people holding the divine weapons, only the two of them and Bai Yu were left - even the powerful Long Biao, Liu Xuan, and Chu Fengge, and even Yue Feng, who was also good at playing with fire, and Yue Feng, who was also good at playing with fire, and who was carrying all kinds of treasures...... All of them were burned white by the fire, and hung back.
The only player who did not rely on the divine weapon but relied on her own strength to resist the dragon fire was Bai Yu, but Rao is her repeated adventures, and her internal strength was so deep that she had reached the end of the strong crossbow at this moment, although she was still barely standing, but even her legs were trembling slightly - this was because her internal strength and physical strength were almost exhausted, and her horns fell into a temporary weakness.
"I am the current king of the dragon clan, Ya'an!" The huge fire dragon stared at everyone, and actually opened his mouth to speak, "A new generation of Yagami generals?" It's a lot weaker than your predecessors. ”
"But you're not as good as the enemies you've had to deal with." Roy calmly replied, "Each other." ”
"Huh! Your hair! And your eyes! Liu Xueji suddenly shouted, "Why have you changed?" ”
After her reminder, everyone who had been watching the fire dragon vigilantly fell on Roy, and they were all taken aback - Roy's originally fiery red hair turned snow-white, and the original blue "color" eyes turned into golden "color" dragon eyes, and small scales appeared from his forehead to sideburns, and then looked closely, several short protrusions appeared on the back of his head, as if they were dragon horns, and the hands holding the sealing sword became extremely thick, and the knuckles were like sharp claws.
"Dragonization?" Ya'an's calm tone finally changed, "Only half-bloods with high dragon blood strength and a high enough bloodline will dragonize - there is still such pure dragon blood as you in this world?" No! Your breath ...... It's the Ice Dragons! Didn't they leave this world a long time ago? ”
"It's a long story, and I don't think it's the time to tell a story." Roy erected the sealing sword that emitted white light in front of him and put on an offensive posture, "What's more, there is no need to tell stories between you and me. ”
"Wait! Since you're also a dragon, why help humans? We should join forces to rule the world! Ya'an hurriedly said, "After all, humans and dragons can't get along peacefully, even if you fight me now, humans can't trust you after all!" As a half-breed, you have more power than humans, you live longer, and over time you will become a dragon...... Sooner or later, humanity will come against you as they did against me today! ”
"That's for the future." Roy smiled, there was no impurity in his smile except for courage and fighting spirit, "I'm here to fight you, this is the only thing I have to do now!" ”
With that, he rushed forward.
Facing Roy, who turned into a half-dragon and held the sword of seals, even Ya'an, who had lived from the era of the Human Dragon Battle to the present, felt quite tricky.
In this case, it naturally would not tolerate the people armed with divine weapons to help Roy and launch a siege on it.
Therefore, with a roar, the fire dragons transformed by the dragon people rushed up together and pounced on everyone.
There are six in total, all of which are five-star ratings.
Cheng Peng rushed forward without hesitation, waved the Ice and Snow Spear, and stopped the one that looked the strongest among them.
"Slaying the dragon, this is originally the responsibility of the gods!" He said calmly, smashing the fireball spit out by the fire dragon with the Ice Spear, "A thousand years ago, Yagami fought like this, and a thousand years later, we will fight like this, and-"
"Get the same result - victory!"
