"I'm not wrong! I'm coming back to tell you: I'm not, I'm wrong!" Ipeia swore aloud toward the place where the old woman had disappeared.

In the empty underground city, Ipeia's proclamation echoed.

However, the old woman did not appear again and did not respond to Ipeya's words. Feeling a sudden emptiness in her heart, Ipeia sat down on a broken brick with her head in her hands.

I don't know how long this state of daze lasted, but when she came back to her senses, she found that the surrounding environment had changed.

Ipeya stood up with an expression of disbelief. Because what she saw was no longer the black, dilapidated ruins of the city, but the backyard of the sunny, luxuriant, and palatial palace – no, it should have been called "Guandi" in those days.

"Porphy" - Ipeia was caught off guard and suddenly entered the water.

But it's not that she's not careless, it's someone who did it on purpose.

The water poured into her body from her nose and mouth, and the feeling of drowning was robbing her consciousness, and Ipeia desperately tried to fight, but the person who pushed her into the water pressed her head into the water behind her back, not relieving her in the slightest, resolutely and completely cutting off any hope of her survival.

......

"Ahh

Ipeya suddenly woke up from a nightmare.

After the dizziness in her head had subsided a little, and her five senses had been restored, Ipeia found herself back in reality. The place where she was still the dragon cemetery, but the dragon skeleton around her was still in its original position in the posture that had been sleeping for thousands of years, and it did not move at all.

"It doesn't look like what you're seeing in your dreams is really good. Miss. ”

A familiar voice came from behind. Ipeia turned to look and saw two men standing behind her. The older priest held a glowing silver cross as the only source of light, and the "riverside man" standing beside Nusan Shudena looked at her with a smirk, apparently the one who had just spoken out was the "riverman".

"If you were to go through it, it would be such a gaffe. Ipeya stood up from the ground and groomed herself a little.

Luckily for her, the light from the cross wasn't too bright, allowing her corpse-like pale countenance to be concealed—memories of death she had actually experienced—and Ipeia didn't want the "Riverside" or Nusan Xiudena to know more about her, so she worked hard to adjust her expression and state of mind as she sorted out her appearance.

However, it doesn't matter whether the "Riverside" didn't notice the change in Ipeia's expression, or whether he simply didn't care. He looked around, then sighed softly, "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it." The 'graveyard of the dragon' you mentioned a month ago is not a blind break, it really exists. But does this world really exist the so-called 'Eighth Dragon Clan'?"

"Do you still doubt me now? In the well-known golden dragon, silver dragon, green dragon, red dragon, black dragon, blue dragon, and sea dragon of Olopa, none of the seven dragons can use such powerful illusions and spiritual magic. "However, in addition to these seven dragons, there is an eighth dragon who is extremely good at this ability. ”

"I'm curious, what kind of dragon is this dragon?"

"You don't need to know. Because they are long gone. Those who remain here are the combined members of the 'Eighth Dragon Clan'. It's just that due to the influence of the confined space, after being white bones for thousands of years, their magic still remains in the surrounding air, and they are strong enough to kill humans. ”

"yes. Fortunately, the eldest lady reminded us before, so we took precautions. "It was Pastor Nusan Shudna who spoke.

The cross in his hand was not just used for lighting, it also formed an invisible protective light barrier within a radius of 3 meters around him, protecting the three of them from the illusionary magic that remained in the air. But seeing Nusan Shudna's frowning face, it seemed that it would be very difficult for him to maintain this barrier for a long time.

"Alright, I'll talk to you about dragons later. We have other important things to do. Ipeia urged.

However, the "riverside man" did not move at all, so that Nusan Xiudena next to him did not dare to move his feet. The "Riverside Man" cast his gaze on the three men lying on the ground, the original "companions": Julian, Owen, and Ray.

"That's what I'm asking them to do: just sleep, don't interfere with our actions. "Now the three of them are no threat. Let's go. ”

The "Riverside" shrugged off Ipeia's words: "Hey, you're used to commanding the horns." After speaking, he took out a sharp dagger from his waist, and his face showed an unprecedented chilling murderous intent.

"Don't make a fuss. They are lying here, no one to save them, they will not wake up. Once we're done with that, it's not too late to come back and deal with them. Ipeia persuaded.

But the "riverside people" did not bother: "Do you take a fancy to all these three little white faces? I won't touch the little knight you feel most sorry for, and as for the half-toned dragon knight, I won't touch him, it will be very troublesome if the Golden Dragon Clan interferes. But that silver-haired guy must not stay, he is too dangerous. As he spoke, the "Riverside Man" cast a fierce light on Owen, who was lying in the farthest distance.

"Don't. Ipeya shook her head and persuaded again.

The reason why Ipeia disagrees is not because she feels any pity or sympathy for Owen, on the contrary, she even feels more deeply than the "Riverman" the great potential threat that Owen may pose to her plans. However, she felt an indescribable sense of amazement from Owen, which was also the reason why she had many opportunities to attack Owen along the way, but she never dared to do it - this is also the reason why Owen has been trapped by the illusion and lost consciousness, and that sense of abruptness still exists.

But the "Riverside Man" didn't care so much, he raised his foot and walked over to Owen.

"This time, I agree with the eldest lady, it's better not to make extraneous branches for the time being. Nusan Shudna, who had not spoken much, rarely expressed his opinion, "If you leave my barrier, I will not protect you, and if I move the barrier with you, it may wake up the silver-haired fellow." Moreover, I don't have enough magic left. ”

After Nusan Hudena said this, the "Riverman" stopped after taking two steps, and after two seconds of weighing the pros and cons, he finally put the dagger away and put the assassination of Owen on hold for the time being.

After leaving behind the unconscious Julian, Owen, and Ray, Ipeia, the "Riverman", and Nusan Xiudena huddled together and headed into the depths of the Dragon's Tomb under the protection of a magical enchantment centered on the cross.

Along the way, in addition to the bones of the dragon, they also saw scattered human remains. The skeletons of these humans are very intact, and judging from the lying position and the remaining objects next to them, these people did not have a violent battle before they died, so it can be assumed that they were affected by psychedelic magic and gradually lost their lives in their sleep and hallucinations.

After walking for more than 400 meters, the three of them came to the end of the Dragon Tomb.

There were no longer any bones of dragons or humans, but instead they were presented with a majestic man-made structure.
