Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Celestial Dragon Empire
An Xu made a silent gesture, and then took a closer look at the behemoth flying overhead, it was obvious that it was a creature he had never seen before, it looked like a huge lizard, with thick limbs, sharp claws, and a body covered in hideous thick scale armor, and the wings on its back were stretched out, nearly ten meters long.
Three of these creatures flew over their heads, and finally landed in the clearing on the edge of the rift.
"It's ...... Dragon? An Xu muttered.
"No, it's a subspecies wyvern!" Noel's insight is obviously broader: "I have seen records in the clan that the body of the dragon is even larger, and this should be a wurm with impure blood!" ”
Doudou said in a low voice: "But isn't it only the Heavenly Dragon Empire that has dragons, how can they appear here?" ”
"Obviously, the Heavenly Dragon Empire is also here, be careful, these guys are not easy to mess with, let's wait for them to go in first!" An Xu took a deep breath and fell to the ground looking ahead.
I saw the three flying dragons landing on the ground, and the mercenaries around them were frightened away, An Xu and they just glanced at it from afar, and they already felt great oppression, not to mention these people who were close to the flying dragons, many mercenaries with slightly inferior strength couldn't even stand on their feet in battle.
Fortunately, the three wyverns ignored the small mercenaries, just stood quietly aside, and then jumped down from the dragon's back, formed a team, and soon entered the crack.
"It's too cool, if only I could have a mount like this!" Doudou said enviously.
"Don't dream, the flying dragon mount is one in the world, except for the Tianlong royal family, no one is qualified to order the dragon clan, as long as someone dares to fight the attention of the dragon clan, they have to face the joint pursuit of the Tianlong Empire and the dragon clan, not for me to fight you, those who can survive the pursuit of these two forces have not appeared since ancient times." Knoll glanced at Doudou.
"What...... What is the Celestial Dragon Empire? Xu Wei said cutely on the side, with a hint of tremor in her voice, it seemed that she was frightened by those flying dragons.
"Isn't it, you don't even know about the Celestial Dragon Empire?" This time, it was not only Doudou and them, but even Su Yue couldn't sit still, glanced at An Xu and said, "Where did you find the best product?" ”
"Ahem, Xu Wei rarely had contact with the outside world before, this is the first time she has gone out to practice!" An Xu coughed embarrassedly, and then explained to Xu Wei: "The Heavenly Dragon Empire is located on a huge island overseas, adjacent to Dragon Island, and these two forces have concluded a very close alliance relationship and have a recognized overlordship!" However, the people of the Celestial Dragon Empire have rarely left the island, and people don't know much about the Sky Empire. ”
Doudou was afraid that Xu Wei didn't even know what Dragon Island was, and added: "Dragon Island is the habitat of the dragon clan, which is the kind of flying dragon in front, but there are more terrifying dragons on the island, and they are also the most powerful creatures in the world, these two forces are aligned, you should understand how terrifying it is." ”
An Xu's face was a little ugly, and he said in a low voice: "It's not good, I really didn't expect that even the Heavenly Dragon Empire would send people here, and if there are other super forces inside, we have underestimated the attraction of the ancient ruins." ”
"Then what should I do, I'm all here, I can't go home empty-handed, right?" Doudou said depressedly, as soon as the people of the Heavenly Dragon Empire appeared, they were instantly like a basin of cold water poured on everyone's hearts, their reputation was too strong, and it really made people unable to raise the courage to compete with them.
Just those three subspecies of flying dragons are enough to be comparable to king-level demon beasts, and as we all know, the dragon clan is a very arrogant race, if the strength is too low, even if they have an alliance, they can't ride on their backs, so the small team of people who come down from the back of the flying dragon is also ridiculously strong.
An Xu pondered for a while, and said loudly: "The situation has exceeded our estimates, the danger is greater than we imagined, and it is still too late to turn back, whether to give up this expedition or continue to go deeper, everyone votes!" ”
"I ...... I think we'd better go back, it's scary! Xu Wei raised her hand timidly, she was really frightened by these flying dragons.
"I'm afraid of a ghost, we biters are not afraid of death, life is so short, we always have to do something exciting, otherwise what's the point of living? Even if I die in this ruin, I have no complaints! Doudou rarely got serious and confided in his heart.
Fanny and Noel nodded together in agreement.
An Xu found that it was really meaningless to let these three bits participate in the vote, since he knew them, he really hadn't seen when they would be afraid, even An Xu couldn't help but be a little reluctant at this time, but there was no timidity on the faces of the three of them.
"And me, me, me, I also suggest continuing, it's a big deal that we sneak in and don't mess with the people of the Heavenly Dragon Empire!" Su Yue stepped forward and said.
An Xu said in a deep voice: "Su Yue doesn't count, three votes in favor, one vote against, I abstain, so go ahead, but I hope everyone will pay attention to it, and don't mess around after entering the crack!" ”
"Why don't I count?" Su Yue said angrily.
"You're not from our team!" An Xu ignored Su Yue and turned his head to look at Xu Wei: "Xu Wei, I said when I went out that I was not forced to participate in this event, it all depends on my personal wishes, why don't you go back alone first?" ”
An Xu is also after careful consideration, Xu Wei is a novice after all, it is too difficult for her to participate in such a difficult expedition as soon as she comes, and her current state is very bad, it is better to let her go back for the sake of safety.
Xu Wei bit her lip and hesitated for a while, but said: "No, I estimate that if I run away alone this time, I will definitely be even more scared if I encounter danger in the future, I will still be with you!" ”
An Xu glanced at her in surprise, but she didn't expect this girl to be quite stubborn in her heart, obviously so scared that she spoke with a trill, but she still had the courage to continue.
"Okay, let's go, we have to hurry up now, I guess there will be more people coming later!" An Xu estimated that the people of the Heavenly Dragon Empire had gone deeper, stood up, and beckoned everyone to walk quickly towards the crack.
When passing by the three flying dragons, Xu Wei kept her head down and didn't dare to look at this hideous giant beast, only Doudou stopped and watched with interest for a while, and under close contact, the body of the flying dragon appeared even larger, and the exaggerated giant claws alone could easily crush a person.
One of the wyverns felt Doudou's gaze, and seemed to not want others to stare at it, so he turned his head and exhaled a breath at Doudou with his nose, and the violent air flow directly lifted Doudou on the ground and followed him, rolling around before stopping.
"it!" Doudou got up from the ground in embarrassment and cursed.
"It's in!" An Xu urged, these wyverns are too dangerous, although they don't seem to be hostile to humans, but if they don't know their temper, it is inevitable that they may be provoked, just one wyvern can put the entire team into danger, not to mention that there are three more here, it is better not to provoke.
Doudou was reluctant to follow, the edge of the crack had been simply reclaimed, there was a path that sloped down, An Xu and they slid down the slope, only to find that there was a hole inside, this is clearly an underground hall, but it was dark inside, and it was not clear to see the surrounding environment for the time being.
An Xu took out the glowing stone and held it in his hand, the soft light slowly emanated, barely having a little sight, but this hall was very large, with the glowing stone, that little bit of light was not enough, An Xu could only stick to the wall and explore slowly.
This hall has obviously been visited by many people, and the underground is full of messy footprints, and An Xu didn't expect to find anything good here, he just wanted to see if there were any clues about the underground labyrinth.
The walls were covered with a layer of plant-like green, and there were many strange textures carved into them, without any information, as if they were decorative, and soon the whole hall was explored, and there was nothing but a passage on each wall.
An Xu had a headache, but he didn't expect to have to make a difficult choice at the beginning, four different directions, choosing any channel may have different situations, without a hint, it is too difficult to choose.
In desperation, An Xu could only ask Bingyan for help, hoping to get a little help from him.
"I'll go, I'm not the owner of this labyrinth, how do I know where to go?" As soon as Bingyan appeared, he complained: "This kind of ancient ruins is too old, and I don't know much!" ”
"Okay!" An Xu suddenly asked quietly in his heart: "By the way, can you detect the strength of those two women?" ”
"The four-star early stage wearing armor, and the other three-star middle stage, but don't trust my judgment too much, if the strength is too high, I can't see it now." Ice Flame Road.
An Xu has a bottom in his heart, and he can put his mind at ease for the time being, it seems that Su Yue and the others have no hidden strength!
Although Bingyan said this himself, An Xu still had a lot of confidence in him, even if he was only in a soul state now, he was definitely a master among the masters who could hide his strength under his nose, judging from the age of Su Yue and Hongluan, four stars were almost the limit, unless a peerless genius like Ya Yunling could reach the level of a five-ring mage.
Of course, it is not impossible to have a higher possibility, but An Xu believes that even if he is a six-star warrior, Bing Yan can detect abnormalities, and he should have thought too much about it before!
