It worked?

Roddy turned around, and in his field of vision, the ice dragon's wings were draped to his sides, and Wisham's face still seemed to be stunned, as if he still didn't believe that he would die at the hands of a nobody.

"Boom..."

Dozens of tons of body fell to the ground, Roddy squinted his eyes in the rising smoke and dust, and his slightly trembling fists finally slowly released.

After a few seconds, the people who had been stiffened by "Dragon Power" finally regained their mobility, Sodrol stood up covering the wounds on her body, Nata gritted her teeth and pulled out the arrow stuck in her abdomen, and before she could speak, the "Intermediate Healing Technique" fell on her, and then Akasha walked out from behind the stone house, healing the wounds of the soldiers who had been hit by the arcane, and turned her head to look at Roddy, who was still standing in place.

And within a few seconds, she looked down at her chest with some confusion - reaching out and pulling at the robe, Akasha suddenly found that an extremely delicate rune appeared on her chest at some point... Not only her, but Sodrore, Nata, and all the soldiers involved in the battle found similar runes in different parts of their bodies.

"It's... What's that?"

While they were wondering, only Roddy understood what these marks represented..."Battle Records" showed that they were the "Dragon's Curse", that is, the "Dragon Slayer's Mark" recorded on the continent!

Opening the [Status Bar], Roddy saw that he also appeared with a buff marked "Permanent".

【Mark of the Dragon Slayer】

Effect: All stats increased by 30%

Effect: Increases all resistances by 100

Effect: Immune to most psychic spells.

Gain "Dragon Taunt": When a dragon appears within 10 km of the dragon, the owner of the Seal will be pinpointed by the dragon.

"This mark is cast by the dragon on all targets within a kilometer radius of the dragon when it dies, and reduces the reputation of all dragons by 3000. ”

Such a powerful buff is comparable to the epic scroll of the Holy Order, and can be called "against the sky" by any sense of the word - but power often comes at a "cost", and the cruelty of "Dragon Slayer" is that those who have the "Mark of the Dragon Slayer" must face the hunt of other dragons!

The most terrifying thing is that Roddy saw a line of instructions in gold letters below:

["Mark of the Dragon Slayer" can be stacked: Each time it is stacked, the attribute increase effect is increased by 20%, the resistance of all systems is increased by 100 points, the immune spirit magic effect is enhanced, and the effective distance of "Dragon Taunt" is increased by 10 times.] 】

This line of annotation immediately made Luo Di understand what "balance" is: after the two imprints are superimposed, the dragons within 100 kilometers can directly lock themselves to the door, if it is three imprints, it is 1000 kilometers!

And Roddy immediately realized a problem: if the shadow dragon in the distance was also seriously injured and died here, then everyone present would have two "dragon slayer marks" superimposed.

Thinking of this, he immediately prepared to rush towards the collapsing city wall in the distance, but after raising his gaze, Luo Di was slightly stunned: under the city wall in the distance, there was no shadow dragon at all.

At this time, Merinthera was actually completely incapacitated.

Biting its neck by Vesam and throwing it away, it smashed the city wall and was directly buried by rubble, gritted its teeth and used its last strength to release the "Transfiguration", and it finally escaped after incarnating into a black-robed man.

But that was the last thing it could do, and after walking not far from the ruins of the wall, Merinthra finally collapsed to the ground from her injuries.

There was a muffled sound of Vesam's body falling to the ground behind him, but Merinthera's consciousness was blurring, and she couldn't even think about what was happening—all that was swirling in her mind was the tragic scenes of the Shadow Dragons suffering a "bloodbath"...

The patriarch's father was killed, and the brothers and sisters he knew were also "executed" one by one, and even the dragon eggs were completely destroyed...

All this is only because the Shadow Dragons have inadvertently violated a certain "taboo".

Why?!

With a sense of inner anger, Merinthra began her revenge - but the Shadow Dragons were outnumbered, and after years of wandering and fleeing, they were finally ambushed by Wisham six months earlier.

Escaping with her life, Merinthera came to the Silent Forest, hoping to solve the other party with the help of the spar left by the high elves, but she didn't expect so many accidents to happen.

As one of the few remaining members of the Shadow Dragons, Merinthra's heart was full of unwillingness and helplessness at this time, it needed revenge, it needed to regain its strength, and it needed to let the Shadow Dragons continue to multiply... But all this now seems to be an unattainable wish.

Looking at the sky in confusion, Merinthera slowly closed her eyes, her consciousness suddenly drifting away from her body, and she felt that the soul of the dragon god was slowly embracing her—but then, the shadow dragon felt that her body was being supported by a force and half sat up.

Under the black hood, the veil covering her cheeks was rudely torn off, her soft pale cheeks were pinched, and she felt her lips suddenly touch the cold glass, and then she was forced to pour a bottle of liquid into her mouth...

"Ahem, cough, cough..."

The weakened dragon coughed in a choking voice—its consciousness had drifted away from almost dead, but now it was reunited by the stimulus: its heavy eyelids struggled to lift, and in the dazzling sunlight, the face in its vision seemed familiar...

The scattered memories gradually reorganized, and fragments flashed through Merinthella's mind: in the ruins of the pharmacy laboratory, her "phantom double" was grabbed by the arm of the other party and ran wildly...

This guy is dead, don't let me see him again!

A minute ago, the other party fought with that human mage to the last moment...

He must be the bravest of mankind, right?

And when Wisham turned to spit out dragon breath, the guy stood in front of him with a short sword...

After all, he still can't avoid such an ending.

These pictures were combined, but they made Merinsera's brows furrow slightly: Could it be that he was already dead, so he saw the soul of the other party?

But then the shadow dragon saw Roddy's face clearly, and even more clearly saw the strange and vivid white aura in his left eye.

"It's... Mark of the Dragon Slayer?!"

Roddy didn't understand the dragon language of Merinthra, and he didn't notice the aura in his left eye at this time—for his heart was in complete shock...

Luo Di never imagined that the dragon he finally decided to save would have the appearance of a high elf!

And, it's still... Female.

After the transformation, Melinthera has long purple-black silky hair, extremely short dragon horns like two slightly playful hair accessories, and slightly messy hair on her forehead, and the facial features that are more perfect than sculptures really have no flaws, so that Roddy has never thought of any descriptions such as "pretty", "beautiful", "exquisite" or so on...

All he could think of was the word "goddess".

This is not the "goddess" who was once juxtaposed with "** silk", "rich and handsome" and so on in that world, but a "god" who is really high up and overlooks all living beings.

However, these thoughts soon lost any meaning, as he saw the Shadow Dragon raise his palm with a cold expression, and immediately aimed his fingertips at himself!

Roddy's bottle of "Blood of the Dire" was empty, and he raced over as best he could, feeding her almost 0% health, saving her life in the nick of time - but this did not seem to be understood in any way, and instead caused her death...
