Crassus felt like he had fallen apart completely.

Every bone, every muscle, every nerve in the body is aching. It is precisely because of this that the red dragon broke free from the abyss of the deep subconscious.

A few days ago, he had discovered some anomalies, some visions that seemed to be about Nozdorm, the Lord of Time, and the desperate voice of the Bronze Dragon King seemed to be calling out to him. He found his student, Ronin, who had become a student of a great mage, and told him what had happened to him, as well as some of his guesses.

When Ronin saw the picture of the despair and pain of the Bronze Dragon King shown by Crassus, the hot-blooded (middle two) master and mage immediately agreed to Crassus's request and decided to help his titular teacher investigate the matter.

They then followed the voice of Nozdorm to Mount Hyjal, which still looked devastated after the ravages of the Burning Legion. In the process of investigation, they were successively pulled into a black vortex by a huge and mysterious force......

What's going on?

Crassus struggled to recall the scene, and a minute earlier, he had almost caught up with Ronin. But it was such a small step away that he was always out of reach. Caught in the chaotic spiral of time, there he saw Nozdorm struggling in pain—as desperate as a dragonfly in a spider's web. Crassus clearly saw the numerous wounds on the Bronze Dragon King's body, it was clear that he had just experienced a terrible battle, and that the Lord of Time was still on the losing side.

The red dragon struggled not to let himself think about the pain, and he probably understood what Nozdorm meant. He had to figure out the whole thing, he couldn't let Nozdorm pass away, and he knew that if it weren't for Nozdorm's efforts to keep the timeline from going wrong, their world would have fallen apart.

He opened his eyes.

The tall and luxuriant trees in front of me looked like a huge umbrella, almost obscuring the sky. The forest is full of life: birds are singing, shadows are swaying, the sun is soft, the breeze is blowing, and through the gaps in the leaves, white clouds of different shapes float in the blue sky.

It's a peaceful and tranquil picture.

"Did I go to heaven after I died?"

"I think you're just going to hell!!"

Just as Crassus was muttering, a discordant voice was heard not far away. He looked up, and a heave of leaves arched suddenly, and Ronin's red hair stuck to several leaves, which slipped from his body as he stood up.

"Looks like we're not dead yet." Crassus laughed that after the danger, it was undoubtedly the happiest thing to be able to see friends again. Yes, in his heart, he already regarded Ronin as a friend, not as his own student.

"yes!" Luo Ning patted the leaves and dust on his body, and at the same time grinned and said with a sad face, "Not dead—but not much." Pain all over my body...... It's like the bones have been removed and reassembled! What a terrible feeling!! ”

Crassus ignored Ronin's complaints, he knew Ronin, and if he could say such a ridiculous thing, it would prove that this guy was not injured.

"Where are we now?" Ronin asked.

"I can't tell. I felt a familiar feeling here, but ......," Crassus said, suddenly with a pained look, and lay back on the ground, closing his eyes, and slowly feeling the pain go away from him.

"Crassus, what's wrong with you?"

Ronin rushed over and looked at him with concern.

Ignoring the red-haired mage, Crassus spread his arms ready to shapeshift, but with a pained look on his face, he gritted his teeth and held on, eventually losing his balance almost completely and falling to the ground.

"Are you alright? Something doesn't look right with you. ”

"Luo Ning, I can't change!" Crassus interrupted him, "I can't change my body!" The red dragon looked a little frightened, and he seemed to be worried that he wouldn't be able to revert to his dragon form.

"Calm down! Crassus! You have to be calm! Ronin yelled at Crassus, "You're just too weak, wait until you're well......"

"Nope! I felt like I couldn't fly. We have to act quickly, Nozdom...... He's in danger! ”

"Nozdorm?"

"Yes, Nozdorm, if it weren't for him, we'd probably be ...... Don't you see him? ”

"Nope!" Ronin replied in the affirmative.

Crassus told the story of the incident one by one, but Ronin's face was unpredictable.

"How can this be ?!!" He couldn't accept it.

"Very scary! But I'm sure it was Nozdorm who saved us, and I'm afraid that because he didn't have the energy to send us back exactly where we were at the right time, ......"

"Do you think - we're in another time now?"

Crassus hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: "Not completely sure, but at least seven or eight points sure." ”

Luo Ning's face was once again like a face-changing drama in Sichuan, flashing surprise for a while, and worry for a while.

Crassus was about to speak, but Ronin suddenly covered his mouth. Crassus struggled violently, and in his life, it was simply a great insult. If it had been before, he would have blown Luo Ning away with a series of flame bombs. But now, he was very weak, and Luo Ning's hand was covered very tightly, and the other hand was on his lips to signal him to be quiet.

Crassus finally understood something, and he stopped struggling and tried to listen to the movement around him.

"Whoa...... Wow...... Rustle......"

It's the sound of a branch cutting through metal, someone is coming!!

Seeing that Crassus had regained his composure, Ronin also let go of the hand covering the red dragon's mouth. It was very quiet all around, except for the sparse chirping of small birds.

The two quietly moved up a small hill, where they had a better view.

Looking down from the hillside, several behemoths squeezed through the bushes and walked out. They were much taller than humans, sturdy but not bloated, wearing black armor, cockscomb helmets, and elaborate swords around their waists. Beneath them was a strong nightblade leopard, a beast that Crassus knew, and there was no more swift and ferocious beast in the forest.

"Night Elves!"

Crassus whispered to Ronin, a hint of concern on his face. Night Elves are rarely active during the day, unless they are patrolling or hunting something? Apparently, these heavily armed elven soldiers had spotted their tracks.

"They've found us!"

This is nonsense! Crassus didn't have time to pay attention to Ronin, the night elves led by him had already reined in the reins, and their silver eyes gleamed with anger in their helmets.

"Catch them !!"

The elves' hands glowed, and a barrage of magic flew towards the bushes where the two of them were. Instinctively, Ronin immediately cast a magic shield, and to his surprise, the magic shield turned out to be even better than his original defensive effect, and the elves' spells collided with the shield, and the two disappeared almost at the same time.

Ronin was about to fight back, only to see Crassus shaking his body. What the hell! Ronin spat in annoyance and held Crassus.

The speed of the Nightblade Leopard was very fast, and it only took a few seconds for it to appear beside Luo Ning and the others, surrounding them. The strong beast's green eyes flashed with a fierce light, and it bent slightly at the signal of its master, and let out a low roar.

Luo Ning took out a shiny mercury from the space bag around his waist. Holding the center of the mercury, the mercury extended forward, and a silver sword appeared in Luo Ning's hand. It was a treasure he had carefully selected from Crassus's treasury, and it was now in handy - to protect its old and new owners.

"Lay down your arms, and I'll treat you captives. Otherwise......"

The leading elven knight said in elven language, but Luo Ning didn't quite understand that the accent of the elves in this era was obviously different from the accent of the elves in Quel'Salas ten thousand years later, and besides, he was not very proficient in Salas.

"Let's go, Ronin! You go on your own! Crassus struggled to urge the mage, he knew that the situation in front of him could not allow the two of them to escape, he just wanted to let Ronin escape from here, and then find a way to rescue him.

Luo Ning shook his head, he had already sworn that he would not give up his companion. The elven leader thinks that Ronin has rejected his kindness. His face turned cold, and he waved his hand coldly, and the elven knights took their long swords and drove the nightblade leopard under his crotch to surround him.

"Ronin!!" Crassus yelled loudly, his face even contorted with force.

As a former student of Crassus and now a good friend, Ronin should have obeyed his orders. But he couldn't convince himself to leave him and run away alone.

"Smack...... Swish! ”

The silver blade retracted into the mercury pillar, and Ronin pulled it back into his waist and held Crassus in surrender.

A smug smile flashed across the elven captain's face, but he didn't stop his men. The two elven soldiers rolled over and got off the leopard and came to Ronin and Crassus's side, Ronin shrugged his shoulders indifferently, the elven soldiers smiled contemptuously, and then slammed the hilt of their swords against Ronin's back, and the red-haired mage rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.

Crassus was furious, regained his consciousness a little, and when he saw Ronin fall to the ground, he immediately broke out and cursed.

Then the back of his neck ached, his mind went blank, and the elven soldier's face with a hint of a smile under the half of the mask gradually blurred...... (To be continued.) )
