Chapter 983: Bone Dragons
The Mithril Alliance is composed of five major families, and the exploration team formed by them, however, due to the lack of life potions to heal the wounded quickly, the combat effectiveness of the team has not recovered to half of its heyday, so in these two successive battles, the loss is the largest among the four forces. Now purely in terms of the number of personnel, it is about the same as the other three forces, and in terms of strength, it is obviously still a cut behind.
Klaus could fully imagine that if he hadn't been supported by those life potions, what kind of heavy losses he would have suffered in the battle just now, and he would probably have to withdraw from the exploration operation.
Regardless, the exploration continues, and despite two battles in quick succession, the dangers of this canyon have been revealed. But in the face of the huge gains that may exist in that tomb as I saw before, no one could resist such a temptation.
The team moved slowly, and strangely enough, there were no obstacles along the way, but no one knew whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. It wasn't until I saw the tomb with the eyes of a wizard and appeared in everyone's sight that everyone's anxiety finally calmed down a little.
However, seeing that the tomb was not far ahead, Lin Li did not order the team to speed up, but instead made everyone more vigilant and slowed down the pace of progress further.
The team of the Tower of Dusk suddenly slowed down, and the team behind naturally slowed down, Hoffman knew that Lin Li must have a reason, so he didn't say a word, and gave the same order to the team of the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce. However, on the side of the Mithril Alliance, Joseph and other high-level officials were a little dissatisfied, obviously the target was ahead, and there was no obstacle at a glance, what do you want to do when the Tower of Twilight slows down at this time?
"President Ferry, why did you suddenly slow down?" Joseph couldn't help but come to the front of the exploration team and questioned Lin Li outside the team in the Tower of Twilight.
"Patriarch Joseph, don't you think this part of the road is too peaceful?" Lin Li had no intention of inviting Joseph into the team to talk.
"Isn't it right to be calm, we've already been through two battles, do you want another one......" Joseph had not finished speaking, when suddenly a gust of wind blew in the canyon, blocking back his words. It's true that this is a canyon, but no matter how huge it is, it's also an underground canyon, how can it suddenly be a violent wind, even a fool knows that there is a situation again.
"You see, there are some things that you don't want to do." Lin Li raised the Sun King's scepter and pointed it into the air in the distance.
At this time, everyone saw that in the direction that Lin Li was pointing, a large group of bone dragons were flying towards this side, and the number was probably dozens or hundreds. Could it be that this is the Legion of Bone Dragons mentioned in Carreras's journal? At this moment, everyone remembered the contents of those pages of the journal.
Seeing this situation, Joseph didn't care about continuing to question Lin Li, and directly turned around and flew back to the team of the Mithril Alliance, organizing the team to prepare for the next fierce battle.
Yes, Vicious Battle, the Bone Dragon is the top existence of all undead creatures, and each Bone Dragon has at least level 20 strength, which is not at all comparable to those skeleton Beamon Ghost Beamon. And here, in the mausoleum of Prince Brehill, these bone dragons don't know how many years they have existed, and I'm afraid that the worst strength is more than level twenty.
And what made everyone even more shocked was that among the hundreds of bone dragons, there was also a bone dragon with a much larger body and a bone-chilling aura at the same time. With the arrival of this skeletal dragon, the temperature in the canyon instantly dropped to freezing, making every member of the exploration team feel as if their souls were about to be frozen.
Looking at this dragon, which was obviously very different from other bone dragons, Lin Li could clearly feel that in the incomparably cold aura it exuded, there was not only the unique smell of undead creatures, but also a cold that made people's blood freeze.
In Carreras's journal, it was stated that the legions of bone dragons created were difficult to control, so a king-level bone dragon was needed as their leader. It seems that this bone dragon that exudes an icy aura is probably the leader of the bone dragon legion that Carreras said.
It's just that the feeling that this bone dragon gives Lin Li is by no means as simple as a king-level dragon. Lin Li has seen a lot of bone dragons, and the bone dragon in the Shadow Valley Undead Triumvirate is really at the king level, and his own bone red dragon can actually be regarded as a king level. However, whether it was the Bone Dragon of Shadow Valley or his own Bone Red Dragon, it was obviously more than one grade worse than the Bone Dragon Leader in front of him.
Feeling the cold aura, Lin Li suddenly remembered the pages of the diary that Elvis brought when he was talking about cooperation with the Mithril Alliance, didn't Breshir mention that he had captured a frost dragon?
Thinking of this question, Lin Li couldn't help but shudder from the bottom of his heart, if this bone dragon was really the frost dragon mentioned by Brehill, then this battle would not be as simple as a vicious battle!
"Frost Dragon Sindra, it can't be, how could it be here!"
Just as Lin Li was pondering the origin of the skeletal giant dragon leader, a suppressed exclamation suddenly came from Conneris's side.
Conneris's exclamation suddenly reminded Lin Li of some information he had read, that is, after he left the Great Crack of the Altar of Eternal Darkness, he deliberately looked up some information about the Elder Dragon in order to understand the Flame Dragon Lothar. Although there is not much information and the authenticity cannot be guaranteed, in most of the legends about the Flame Dragon Lothar, there is another name mentioned in the past, and that is Sindra, the frost dragon.
According to some legends, the frost dragon Sindra and the flame dragon Lothar are rivals, and unless they are on the battlefield with the Titans, they will inevitably meet in an earth-shattering battle. But there are also legends that say that the two are actually the closest friends, and in the battle with the Titans, they are the best partners and so on. But whether those legends are true or not, it is certain that Sindra, the frost dragon, is definitely an existence as terrifying as the flame dragon Lothar.
How terrifying the existence of Yanlong Lothar was at that level, Lin Li knew very well in his heart, in the great rift, when Rogge and Nefa joined forces, the two Sacred Domain powerhouses, they were all beaten by Yanlong Lothar and were powerless. And this Frost Dragon Sindra, since it is an existence of the same level as the Flame Dragon Lothar, I am afraid that even if it becomes a bone dragon, its strength will not be much inferior.
"Angelano, rely on yourself, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you." Lin Li said helplessly to the goblin hiding behind him. With hundreds of bone dragons, plus it is likely to be the leader of the frost dragon Sindra, with such a disparity in strength, Lin Li has no bottom in his heart, let alone taking care of others.
In fact, not only Lin Li, I believe that everyone present already had an extremely bad premonition about the fate of the next exploration team when they saw this group of bone dragons and the obviously different giant dragon leader in the middle appear. Although the strength of this exploration team is already very strong, the opponent it will face this time is a huge army composed of hundreds of bone dragons above the legendary level, let alone exploring the mausoleum, it is still a question whether it can escape.
Especially the giant dragon leader in the middle, far away, people already felt the incomparably heavy and substantial coercion, as if the whole sky was slowly pressing down, even the strongest legendary powerhouses in the exploration team had already bred a deep sense of powerlessness from the bottom of their hearts before the official war began.
The high-level leaders of the four major forces have all read the pages of Carreras and Brehill's diaries, and they have indeed made some connections between the two in the discussion, so it can be said that everyone is still mentally prepared for the Frost Dragon to appear in the mausoleum. It is precisely because of this that the four major forces reached a consensus on cooperation, temporarily put aside the grudges that were difficult to resolve between them, and merged the two exploration teams into one.
It's not that they don't know how terrible the Frost Dragon is, but as we all know, the end of the Flood Age and the beginning of the Dark Age mean that the Elder Dragons and the Titans have completely withdrawn from the historical stage of the Anriel world, and in the era when Prince Bresil left a diary, there are few legends of the existence of real Elder Dragons. Especially in the diary in the possession of the Mithril Alliance, Prince Bresil's understatement tone when he mentioned the Frost Dragon made it impossible to imagine anything more exaggerated. As a result, almost everyone decided that the Frost Dragons mentioned in Brehill's diary should refer to the direct descendants of the Ancient Frost Dragons.
However, although the huge Bone Dragon Legion was still at the end of everyone's sight, and the true full picture was not revealed, the unrivaled power of the Frost Dragon, the leader of the Bone Dragon Legion, far exceeded their expectations. Under that powerless pressure, except for the legendary powerhouses who could barely support it, the others seemed to have some difficulty even standing.
At this time, these legendary powerhouses have vaguely felt it, and I am afraid that the previous guesses of themselves and others are too taken for granted. Could it be that here, the Frost Dragon, the leader of the Bone Dragon Legion, is really the legendary Elder Dragon who dominates the skies of the world of Anriel? Although it was a little unbelievable, the coercion like the incarnation of a god made it impossible for everyone to think of any other answer.
The difference between the real Elder Dragons and the descendants of the Giant Dragons is not a little bit, although the power possessed by the direct descendants of the Elder Dragons is also not comparable to the existing dragons in the Anriel Continent, but only the truly outstanding, the true king, can step into the realm of the Holy Land. However, the Elder Dragon, on the other hand, possessed the strength of the legendary level as soon as he was born, and when he became an adult, he could easily grasp the power of the Sanctuary and become a powerful existence standing at the peak of the entire world.
If it is an ordinary Sanctuary-level dragon, with the current strength of the exploration team and the many legendary powerhouses in the team, it may not be impossible to fight. But if it is a real ancient dragon, it is a powerful creature that is almost comparable to the gods, unless there is a real Sanctuary powerhouse in the team, I am afraid that this place will really become a place for everyone to bury their bones.
"Master Ferrey, the situation is not good now, is there anything you can do to ......" Hoffman handed over the affairs of the team to Thomas and the others, and hurriedly came to Lin Li's side, looking at the skeletal dragon army approaching in the distance, his face showed anxiety and panic that could not be concealed, and there seemed to be a faint tremor in his voice.
"It's too late to retreat now, and there is no way out except for a war." Lin Li said in a difficult tone, his eyes staring into the distance, holding the Sun King's scepter in his hand, and the joints of his fingers were unconsciously white.
"If we can have a Sanctuary powerhouse on our side, otherwise we will fight to the death......" Joseph and Klaus also came to the front of the team at this time, standing with Lin Li and Hoffman, facing the huge pressure from the ancient dragon, no one can care about the past grudges.
A Sanctuary powerhouse? Lin Li secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, if the other party was a Sacred Domain powerhouse who could handle it, then would he still need to be embarrassed like this? With the strength of his legendary peak, coupled with the seven star fragments, not to mention defeating ordinary Sanctuary powerhouses, he is confident that he can at least find a glimmer of life. However, if the other party was really the legendary Frost Dragon Sindra, that existence of the same level as the Flame Dragon Salo, how could a Sacred Domain powerhouse be able to compete.
The Elder Dragons were born with their own hands on the Origin Power of this world, and unlike humans or High Elf mages who need to perceive anything, the Origin Power born in the basic rules is just like their instincts, as natural as the beating of the heart. It is precisely because of this that these ancient dragons can have legendary-level power at birth, and smoothly step into the Sanctuary when they are adults, with the purest and most original rule power.
Among the many dragons of the Elder Dragons, the Flame Dragon Clan, which has mastered the rules of the fire element, and the Ice Dragon Clan, who have mastered the rules of the water element, have always been the two most powerful dragon clans. Flame Dragon Salo and Frost Dragon Sindra are the best of their respective dragon clans, both of them are powerful beings who have reached the peak of the Holy Realm and become gods in half a step, and their strength is probably second only to the five guardian dragons. Such a powerful opponent is not something that one or two ordinary Sacred Domain powerhouses can compete with, even if it is a Sacred Domain powerhouse of the same level, I am afraid that they can only barely protect themselves.
