Chapter Twenty-Three: The Seven Dragon Kings

Kyle replied, "Yes, Mentor, I've seen it in your library, which calls it the wasteland. It is the closest planet to Tygulas, and there are many mages who like to summon monsters from there to defend their lair. You also said you had been there. ”

Pleased that Kyle still remembered the story he told, Ernest nodded in satisfaction.

"Yes, it's also home to the elves, orcs, and dragons. You should know about the war between the elves and the demigods, right? ”

"Hmm."

"Yes."

Seeing that the two were affirmed, Ernest continued to tell the story.

"Twelve thousand years ago, the elves came to Tegulas from the doomed Tynoir. In order to seize the hegemony of the planet, they began to hunt down the descendants of the demigods who ruled the planet Tygulas at that time. And the hatred between the two sides also increased with the escalation of the conflict, and in the end, even the originally arrogant demigods had to participate in the war themselves. ”

"Although the elven mage legion is very strong, even killing two demigods, it has also paid a heavy price for this. This is an unbearable price for the elves who have become refugees. Although it made the demigods know that the power of the elves should not be taken lightly, it also forced the elves to think of a better way to fight the demigods. ”

Evans stood up in surprise.

"So they created the Dragons!!"

In Tygulas, the only life that can compete with the demigods is the Primal Dragon King, except for the Elemental Gods. The Elemental Attendant is the agent of the Star Soul-Gaia, and will not fight against the demigods who are the children of the Star Soul.

In this way, only the Ancient Dragon King remains.

"No, they transformed the dragons. At that time, the dragon clan was already a biological war weapon of the elves, but at that time, the highest was only the sixth order, which was the level of the senators of the Senate. ”

Then.

Ernest tells the two the truth about the history that the dragons have been hiding from within the empire.

"After descending on Tygulas, the elves planted seven World Trees throughout the planet. With the help of these plants' psychic networks, the elves were able to control all the creatures they had modified, and the dragons of the time were no exception. ”

"They have a lot of intelligence, but they can't think about anything other than fighting, and as the servants and weapons of the elves, their minds are full of the ideas of loyalty, piety, and death that the elves have instilled in them, like ......"

Kyle continued, "It's like being brainwashed." ”

"Brainwashing? The brain is cleansed the same? Ernest smacked his lips and gave Kyle a thumbs up, "Very figurative metaphor, not bad!" Congratulations on creating a new word. ”

"Ahem."

Hearing the mentor's praise, Kyle was embarrassed. After all, he had only borrowed words from his previous life.

However, Ernest didn't care about his apprentice's expression, but continued: "In order to fight against the demigods, the elves selected seven of the most powerful sixth-order dragons, they are the β€”β€”β€”β€” platinum dragon Bahamut, the green dragon Istna, the red dragon Raphael, the black dragon Osaduram, the white Satya, the blue dragon Kaos, and the most powerful result of the previous demigod weapon experimentβ€”β€”β€”β€” the five-headed dragon Tiamat. ”

Hear these names.

Especially with the names Bahamut, Tiamat and Istna, Kyle and Evans took a deep breath.

These are living legends!

Evans, in particular, immediately asked, "So the elves succeeded!" ”

Ernest looked at him and replied, "It worked, but it also failed." β€œ

"Failed?"

Evans retorted, "But they did succeed?" Istna is one of the triumvirates of the powerful Emerald Dragon Queen and the Republic of Noreen Il; Bahamut was also the great dragon emperor of the empire; And Tiamat... It doesn't matter if she's evil or not, on the planet Tygulas, she has powers second only to the Beamon demigod Temiral. Where did the elves fail? ”

Kyle didn't refute it.

In his previous life, he watched a lot of this kind of movies and anime, and he was not very surprised by the plot of the creator rebelling against the creator.

He was even more shocked that the biotechnology that the elves once possessedβ€”β€”β€”β€” even the demigod-level seventh-order primeval dragon and other beings could be transformed.

Ernest was not surprised by Evans's rebuttal, which he expected, and replied, "The elves failed because they couldn't control such a powerful beingβ€”β€”β€”β€” they simply couldn't control such a powerful being. Moreover, the transformation of the sixth-order elder dragon to the primeval dragon would also cause irreparable damage to the World Tree that had not yet fully grown. ”

"Elves can't control the Primordial Dragon?" Kyle asked.

He was puzzled.

β€”β€”β€”β€”Didn't the elves think about this situation in advance?

"Yes, the elves control the creatures they create with a psychic network of mind magic and the pan-consciousness of the World Tree, which is very effective for beings with low soul strength. However, the Transformation of the Dragon King's World Tree had only been planted for less than ten years, and for demigod-level lifeforms, the soul strength of these 'little saplings' could not overwhelm their will. ”

"Moreover, in order to transform these dragon kings, the World Tree has channeled a large amount of energy reserves and life force to the seven-headed dragon kings, making itself weak."

In the end, only the World Tree, Noreen, blessed by the goddess Nora (the star soul of the Silver Moon and the god of Gaia), survived, and Istna, who was transformed by Noreen Il, also formed a symbiotic relationship with Noreen Il. Now Istna has become the guardian of Noreen Il. ”

"But Mr. Ernest, what happened to the other dragon kings who have been transformed, we all know about the three primeval dragons that are still alive."

Evans was more concerned about the rest of the transformed dragons than the World Tree.

Or rather, care about their ending.

And Ernest doesn't sell off either.

"The two world trees that transformed the black dragon Osaduram and the blue dragon Kaos were planted on the continent of Temiral after the dark elves came to Tygulas, and after a few years the dark elves were expelled into the underground world by the rest of the golden elves, they belonged to the golden elves."

"But there is hidden in these two trees the power of the abyss, which makes Osaduram and Kaos crazy and brutal. The desire to destroy destroys their sanity and drives them to destroy everything around them. Eventually, when the two met, they both perished. And these two World Trees were also destroyed by these two mad dragons for the first time. ”

"The red dragon Raphael was transformed into an ash dragon, but the World Tree that transformed him could not withstand such a high temperature and was burned by Raphael, and Raphael, who lost the support of the World Tree's life force, was also burned to ashes by his own flames, which was the only failed transformation."

"The white dragon Satya, that is, the Winter Dragon Queen, her transformation was very successful, but before she appeared in this world, she was sealed by the water elemental god Estern under the world tree that transformed her, Antiel, which is now the Ice Pillar, and the church of the ice goddess Estelle is responsible for guarding the seal and preventing her from escaping."

"What about the other two World Trees?"

Kyle wondered what happened to the remaining two World Trees, he'd never heard of a World Tree in Bahamut!

"Tiamat's tree had been devoured by her, and she had gained extraordinary strength and a near-immortal body. And the king of platinum...... Its one was in the heart of what is now the Desert of Death. ”

"Thousands of elder-level (transcendental) earth shamans and ten times the number of official shamans prayed to Gaia for divine punishment, thus draining the water from the area of the current Death Desert, changing the climate of the entire planet, and causing the trunk of the world tree to wither and die."

"Incidentally, most of the population of the Golden Elves who swore to defend the only remaining World Tree at that time, as well as almost all the high-level ones. This divine punishment, which is equivalent to fifth-level magic, may last for tens of thousands of years. And the sudden death of those high-level leaders also caused most of the elves' life technology to be lost. ”

"Shhh

The sound of two people pumping cold air can be heard clearly.

Kyle had only heard that the power of spells and magic was extremely powerful, and that fifth-level magic could destroy the world, but he didn't have any idea in his heart.

No matter how powerful it is, can it surpass nuclear weapons?

But now that he heard about the Divine Punishment, Kyle was still frightened even if he had an idea of the power of the large-yield nuclear weapon.

More intuitive is what hangs behind the old man's back.

β€”β€”β€”β€” the entire map of the continent of Alagacia, the Death Desert, which occupies more than half of the area, is unusually conspicuous.

According to Kyle's previous life unit estimates, this huge desert is estimated to be six million square kilometers in size? The continent of Alagacia is the largest of all five continents, covering a quarter of the land area of the planet Tegulas.

Gaia's divine punishment abolished one-eighth of the land in one fell swoop!

This......... It's the power of the gods.

There was a long silence, only the small sound of the tip of the quill in Ernest's hand rubbing against the paper, and after a long silence, as if awakened by the sound of boiling water in a teapot, Kyle came back to his senses and said to Ernest, "So, what is the cost?" ”

"What, at what cost?"

Kyle rolled his eyes, speechless at Ernest's actions to scare him: "Of course it's the price paid by those shamans, such a powerful spell, or divine punishment, can't exist without a price, what did they pay?" ”

"The life and soul of the shaman who is all involved in the ceremony."

Ernest looked at Kyle approvingly, "I'm amazed that you've recovered so quickly, and it's really for nothing that I was asked to hang the continent map here to scare you." ”

Kyle rolled his eyes again when he heard this.

'You're an old man, and you actually admit that you're scary!' ’

At this time, Evans also came back to his senses and complained, "Grandpa Ernest, is it necessary for you to do this?" I'll admit that I was really scared this time, and I promise you that you will study magic hard in the future, even if you can't be a mage, you must have a certain understanding of magic. ”

Ernest smiled affirmatively.

Apparently, he was glad that Evans understood his thoughts.

"In my more than forty years of journey, I have encountered many dangers, but there are also different kinds of magic that have helped me overcome all kinds of dangers, even in the face of invincible enemies, I can teleport away, unless I meet those mages who are far more advanced than you."

"Evans, I'm glad you understand my painstaking efforts."

He then looked back at Kyle, "I would also like to see a mage inherit my title of 'Traveling Mage' and continue to write this traveling mage diary." ”

Seeing his solemn expression, Kyle naturally wouldn't disagree with his mentor at this time.

"Mentor, please advise."
