A wave of heat rushed towards the three of them, evaporating the heavy water vapor around them, and the air became hot and dry.

And on the top of the mountain, a pitch-black silhouette appeared. Even from a distance, it looks more powerful and powerful than the tall Mount Mebis from the top.

A loud sound came from the top of the mountain, echoing between the peaks.

"Look, look, what is this?"

The pitch-black silhouette walked towards the col. With every step it took, the peaks of Mobius swayed gently, and between the rocks of the mountains, the palm-sized figure in the distance was large enough to occupy all corners of the view, and the old trees that had grown for many years could only touch the roots of its wings.

Only then did everyone see what it looked like.

The sharp and curved dragon claws pierced deep into the ground, and their thick limbs crushed countless trees. Thick red-black scales covered the entire body, and clusters of flames erupted from the cracks in the scales. The wings were wide and thin, half-tucked at the sides of the body, with two small sharp claws in the wings. Commanding this shell, which stood above all living things, was a slender dragon head, two clumps of curved horns that sprouted from its forehead to the sides, and its mouth contained a dense tooth like a shark.

"Three rare guests. ”

When the dragon's voice roared and trembled, two gray flames erupted from under its nose, and sporadic flames burst out from its mouth, and in an instant, its body was decorated with various forms of sparks.

Faced with this flaming legendary creature, Leo fanned the air in his mouth and nose, and complained to the other two with a frown, "Hasn't it brushed its teeth since it was born? “

Esenus sighed: "Not only do you have a problem with interpersonal communication, but you also don't have a good interpersonal communication. ”

The calmness of the three made the fire dragon lower his body with interest. The huge head rested in front of the three of them, and a pair of dragon eyes covered with a layer of light and transparent eyelids looked back and forth at them, especially Leo, who was still eating and drinking.

"You seem to be very bold. ”

Its voice was filled with curiosity about encountering rare foods and toys.

Leo covered his nose in frustration.

"Thank you very much for the compliment, but I still hope you stay away from me, distance produces beauty, have you heard?"

The fire dragon straightened up and said disdainfully, "I am equally disgusted by the smell of the earth on you humans. ”

"We dragons are the most superior life forms in all planes, and naturally possess more power, longer lifespan, and superior wisdom than other lifeforms. Wherever the dragon goes, all the lower beings will be suppressed from the life level, trembling, and left to our slaughter, which is a symbol of the glory of the dragon for countless years. ”

"The dignity of the dragons is not to be offended. In this mountain range, whether it is birds, beasts, ants and reptiles, they are scattered in all directions, which is the respect for us. The fire dragon wandered and paced around the three of them, its eyelids lowered, its gaze focused on the three. "And you, three mortals, dare to step into my territory!"

The fire dragon stopped, half-sitting on the hillside, looking a little graceful.

"Now, I, grandson of the Flame Dragon, son of the arrogant dragon, Grinich, appreciate your courage and mercifully allow you to leave your advice to those who come after you in the last few minutes of your life!"

"Hey, I mean, you seem to think a lot of yourself, little one. Leo shook the liquid in his glass, his cheeks slightly red. "Don't cry too loudly later. ”

Grinich chuckled under his breath.

"Little one?" said Grinich sneered. "Since you have guessed my age, it means that you also have a considerable level of intelligence. But even for the little ones, I'm more than enough for you to be your grandfather. Human, I don't want to, and I don't need to, hold you accountable for the offense of your words, for the guilt of trespassing on the territory is far above that, and death is the heaviest punishment for you. Since you don't cherish the last moments, now, feel your death for a short time!"

Grinich let out a dragon roar, and the crouching hind legs suddenly exerted force, and the dragon body slammed into the ground where the three of them were, and a pair of dragon wings on their backs also waved to set off a gust of wind in all directions. The massive body that was rapidly approaching was covered by strong wind pressure, and the flames erupting from the cracks in the scales left a chaotic line of fire on the retina.

The small col had been torn apart by such a violent impact, and a faint whirlwind of flames scattered at Grinich's starting point.

Leo, who was not far away, staggered to his feet and patted the back of his head in annoyance.

"Brandy! It's the best I've ever had. ”

Omoni patted Leo on the shoulder and comforted him: "It's okay, I still have it, and it's all in variety." ”

"That's great news, my friend, your bald head looks really shining!"

The only normal Isennus drew his broadsword with his backhand and admonished: "Don't underestimate the enemy, pay attention to that ring of fire, there are traces of manipulating energy in it, it may be a creature that is close to the legend." ”

Leo also drew his sword, grasped the hilt of the sword with both hands, and stretched his fingers back and forth.

"I agree with you, in the history I have verified, dragons have always been a sign of disaster, the beginning of mythology, and danger is inevitable. ”

Esenas tilted his head and gave Leo a sharp look.

"What signs? Why did you never talk about it?"

Leo waved his hand.

"It's not important now, tell me how to fight next?"

Esenus withdrew his suspicious gaze and pointed with one hand at the hill where the dragon had suddenly exerted force, the ground shattering like a spider's web, the earth flying, and the rhizomes of countless trees exposed.

"Remember when it was sitting on the hillside? It's not obvious, but it does have a crouching motion. That speed just now can be seen as its burst speed. Whether or not this is its top speed, at least it means that our normal speed is higher than its normal speed, so we are already in an advantage when it comes to melee combat. ”

By the time Isenas was analyzing, Grinic had already turned around and was once again in an attacking stance.

"Other aspects still need to be observed, and reckless attacks will most of the time lead to unpredictable results. ”

Grinic shook his huge head and puffed out two puffs of gray smoke rather impatiently.

"You little things, each of you is better than the other. I've heard that you humans make tools to capture agile creatures. Unlike your use of tools, we dragons are good at manipulating energy. ”

Grinich's mouth grew suddenly, and a red light lit up at his throat, and it grew brighter and brighter, quickly turning from red to yellow to incandescent in a matter of seconds.

"Be careful!"

Omoni exclaimed. However, he had barely had time to make a simple gesture when a wide fan-shaped flame had already licked his cheek.

The white flames quickly covered the mountain, and at the end of the flames, the pure white flames were faintly seen gradually turning into kumquat and then dark red, and the air was also scorched by the heat into uneven waves.

It took more than ten seconds for the rushing flames to disperse and recede. A light blue oval reticle is revealed. In front of him, Omoni stepped forward, his right hand stretched forward to support the light shield, and behind him, Isenus half-covered his eyes with one hand and a sword in the other, and Leo was also holding a sword in both hands.

The grass inside the mask was still covered with rain, but the outside world became completely different, the ground around the three of them became charred black, and all the plants turned into ashes. The remains of the trees could only be seen from a little distance, and as far as the eye could see, it had turned into a sea of fire. From the bottom of the mountain, the hill has been transformed into a flaming torch.

Omoni wiped the sweat from his shiny head and explained, "This is a defense built with arcane energy, which is different from the white defense you have seen before, it has a particularly good effect on energy hedging and energy diversion... But it can only be used to deal with this dragon in a generally good way. ”

Grinich tugged at the cracked earth, and a large amount of flame erupted abnormally from between the scales in his throat, and looked at Omoni with interest: "You seem... It's the kind of people called spellcasters, the kind of people who try to touch the realm of legends with mortal bodies, and to great avail. ”

"It's really a creative career. But it is only insignificant in the face of legendary abilities. ”

After speaking, Grinich looked up again.

"Again?" shouted Leo.

"Rush up!" exclaimed Isenas.

This time, Omoni reacted in time, and a simple and swift arcane impact hit the dragon's throat, giving him a brief pause that allowed Leo and Esenus to get within close range.

Grinich stood up in exasperation, and spewed a small flame beneath him. The only intact part of the hill was also a mess.

Then it slammed its legs to the ground, whipping up a gust of wind to extinguish the flames beneath its feet.

Behind it, Leo and Isenas talked quietly and quickly.

"Well, what do you think?" asked Leo.

"It's not fast, and the fire attack is dangerous, but it doesn't seem to be able to withstand its own attack on its own, and careful dodging at close range can ensure safety. Now it's time to find the one that hurt it..."

Just as Isenus was quick to explain, Leo's constricted pupils reflected a rapidly approaching thick object.

"—" Leo had just shouted a syllable when Grinich's stout tail, which was one man tall, was already rapidly clinging to Isenas's back.

The sound of the tail cutting through the air flickered, and a stream of blood was thrown into the sky.

Leo watched in amazement as the string of blood flowers turned into a ball of flame in the air.

"Ethan?"

"The defense is also very strong, almost as hard as a full-body plate armor, about one and a half times the thickness of plate armor. Esenas's voice continued to come from behind Leo.

"You're not hurt?" Leo turned to look Esenas up and down.

"I see a little bit of attack in the reflection of your eyes... Don't look at me, it's the one who hurts, I just took the opportunity to try a sword. Isenus tightened the heavy sword in his hand and concluded unoptimisticly: "All in all, although we can inflict damage on it, it seems that we cannot produce effective damage. The only good news is that it is not very skilled in its grasp of energy, and there are flames escaping between the scales, and if it can disrupt its energy operation, it will cause much faster damage than if we can slash it with one sword. ”

"Defeat magic with magic?"

"That's right," Esenas summed up succinctly.

Leo sighed helplessly, looked at the narrow and long blade in his hand, and then at the tall body of the fire dragon that rivaled some well-known cathedrals, and shouted to the side.

"That bald old man over there, can you do something!"

Omoni, who had been chanting in a low voice for a while, made a move of his right hand, and a thick stream of water knocked down countless trees and headed straight for Grinich.

"Please respect the top of my smooth head, which is a symbol of wisdom and diligence. ”

Omoni's expression had a serious taste, but as the water evaporated from a fireball casually spit out by Grinich, his face immediately fell.

"Well, I'll admit that I didn't study very hard, and I didn't major in offensive spells..."

Leo reluctantly pulled a sword flower.

"Don't come out to risk it when you're so old, old man, it's good to go back to your health. ”

"Stop talking nonsense, try prick it in the eye. Esenas patted Leo on the shoulder.

"Well, if I can fly fifteen meters high. I immediately just... Alas, alas, can you jump that high?"

Leo stupidly looked at Isenas who jumped five or six meters on the ground, and then looked back at a bald man who was still gesturing and casting spells, and immediately jumped onto Grinich's knees.

"Is it to reduce my own weight, it seems that there is still a wave of energy to assist my movements..."Leo silently felt the sudden gain.

The two of them flickered and swayed around the dragon's massive rockery-like body, gradually closing in on the eyes they had tentatively designated as critical.

Grinich kept jumping up, falling, shaking his body. After several failed attempts to slam the two little bugs to the ground, it let out a roar of rage, and the wings behind it waved vigorously, levitating in mid-air with its huge dragon body, and began a series of aerial acrobatics.

No matter how skilled the two of them were, they couldn't adapt to the exclusive life of this sky creature, and they fell to the ground one after the other.

Before falling, Esenas faintly saw a shiny dragon scale on Grinich's chin.

Leo retched on his stomach and complained, "I swear it's the worst vehicle I've ever ridden in my life." ”

"Fortunately, Omoni's spell cushioned it, otherwise this would probably be the last vehicle you will ride in your life. ”

Isenas also looked a little helpless.

Grinich in the sky glanced angrily and contemptuously at the two who had fallen to the ground, and a fire began to light up between his throats again.

The two looked at each other and shouted out a word in unison.

"Run!"

However, just as the two were about to take a step, Omoni on the side made another move.

"The third of the two ways of the wind system: pressure!"

In mid-air, several traces of air writhing suddenly appeared around Grinich, and then quickly coalesced into a blue-black entity, and several wind ropes passed through various gaps in Grinich's body, binding it to immobility.

Losing the support of his wings, Grinich wailed and fell to the ground.

Leo and Isenus looked at each other again.

Opportunity!

Grinich was still in mid-air, his wings were bound, and he had no point of strength on his body, and if he had landed on the ground and had the foundation to exert his strength, the battle would inevitably become difficult again. Only for a brief moment that it was about to hit the ground, and with the force of its fall, it leapt to its feet and plunged the weapon into his throat.

The opportunity was fleeting, and it was only a few seconds from falling to touching the ground, so the two of them didn't say a word, and they rushed forward with their heads in a hurry, adjusting their breathing as they tried to seize this opportunity.

"There's an extraordinarily shiny scale on its chin, that's probably a concentration of its energy! Attack there!" Exenus shouted.

Grinich tried to break free of the chain, but the first time he flapped his wings, the chains showed signs of loosening, and it looked like it would only take two or three flaps to break through the spell that Omoni had worked so hard to maintain.

But as Leo had expected, a few flapping wings was enough for it to fall to the ground

Anger grew in Grinich's eyes, his head lifted with all his might, and the fire in his throat began to bubble up again. There is no risk-free plan in the world, and in its view, the unprotected rush of two humans is also a great opportunity not to be missed.

As soon as Isenas saw that Grinic was attacking again, he did not hesitate to stop his movements and prepare to evade.

There is no trade-off, and even if you can attack it before the flamethrow, you can't be sure that it will deal effective damage. On the other hand, if you get a little bit of a flame rubbing, it's definitely not a pleasant experience. The risk is completely disproportionate to the gain.

But in Leo's thinking, Grinich's strength, defense, and attack methods are all above them, even if they have the advantage of speed, it only refers to the speed on the ground, counting Grinich's wings, they may not be able to escape. So this chance of surprise may be the only chance.

Leo decided to decide the winner within this blow.

Now that he had made up his mind, all the stats of the battle, speed, distance, time, the length of the sword, the charging time of the skill, and the speed of the flame jet flashed quickly and quickly in Leo's mind.

Leo's vision quickly narrowed, and the flames in Grinich's mouth had just been charged before the man and the dragon staggered, and Leo's sword was enough to plunge into its throat with a single thrust.

But Grinich's eyes were still full of anger, and instead of fear, he aimed directly at Isenas in the distance.

Leo paused for a moment, and the scene of the few encounters just now crossed his mind again.

The flames that spilled through the cracks in the scales, the dragon's blood that turned into flames in the air, and the defenseless posture of Grinich.

How could a monster with its whole body capable of using scale armor to restrain the materialized energy in its body, at the core of the energy operation, be weaker than other places?, and Grinich's uncaring posture showed that it did not take this blow to heart.

He sighed slightly, Leo had planned to burst into Grinich's jaw, avoiding the flames and plunging his sword into its throat, so as to save as much life as possible while hurting the dragon.

It's a pity that Grinich detected Leo's intentions, or rather, it was a trap at all, and Grinich took advantage of the poor intelligence to pretend to reveal his flaws, luring Leo to attack and at the same time intending to melt Leo.

But there is no such thing as a risk-free plan in the world.

After Leo figured it out, instead of advancing and retreating, he turned over and left the throat at his fingertips, and instead crossed the dragon's mouth that was about to become a forbidden place for life.

At the same time, the long sword in his right hand was wrapped in a layer of dark blue energy, and it slammed into the dragon's mouth.

For the first time, horror welled up in Grinich's dragon eyes.

The world fell silent for a moment as the sword collided with the flames, and then it was covered in a loud bang and hot wind.

A ball of flame burst from the dragon's mouth, blood mixed with scorching flames spurting from the throat and neck.

Leo was bounced out of this strange force and slammed into a tall tree.

"You don't want to die?" said Isennas scurryed in, picking Leo up to check on his injuries. "No matter how you look at the flame temperature of this fire dragon, it is several times higher than the temperature of the forge!"

In the face of Isennas's scolding, Leo just grinned and responded, "Fortunately, the spell protection given by the old man at the last moment is very crucial. ”

Isenus took a closer look at Leo's injuries, but fortunately there were only minor burns under the torn clothes.

Isenus couldn't help but ask curiously, "Old Mo, what kind of spell did you hang on him?" ”

Mogney smirked.

"It's just a fourth-level ice armor technique. For such short-term exposure to high temperatures, the water vapor evaporated by the high temperature can effectively block the heat transmission. What's the matter, this is the precipitation of the wisdom of the elderly, and the energy density of that explosion just now is almost comparable to a level 9 spell!"

On the other side, Grinich staggered to his feet, two flame-forming dragons looming on his shoulders.

"Your sword," Isenas wondered.

"Your sword!"

Grinich wailed, flames gushing out from his wounds and mouth.

However, before it could say anything more, an even more violent explosion spread from its neck.

After a series of roars, with a terrible howl and a bang that resounded through the wilderness, Grinich turned into pieces of lava and shot into the mountain like a piece of cheese.

The incessant explosions lasted for a minute.

Just when there was silence all around, and everyone thought it was over, Mount Mobius suddenly trembled in its entirety, and countless red lights shot straight into the sky through the gaps through the lava, and then half of the mountain exploded, and a huge amount of mountain rocks rolled down, bringing a loud noise. The explosion sent a wave of air into the sky, dispersing the funnel-like clouds and revealing a distant blue sky.

The three people who were affected, fortunately, several auxiliary spells of the Slow Fall Technique Light Feather Technique that Mogny quickly applied were released together, and the three of them slowly floated and landed in mid-air, so that they would not be involved in this disaster that rewrote the map.

Under the watchful eyes of the three of them, countless lava was dragged towards the back of Mount Mobius under the faint roar of the dragon.

"Catch up, he's not dead yet. ”

"Nope. ”

To the surprise of Esenas, Leo rejected his offer.

"You go track it down, I'll go to the disaster. ”

Following Leo's direction, Isenas saw large pieces of freshly crumbling rubble, enveloping the remains of trees, and mudslides from continuous torrential rains, heading straight for Yorktown at the foot of the mountain.

Isenus gave Leo a deep look and nodded.

"Okay, Lao Mo and I will chase this dragon, and we will meet you in Yorktown. ”

Although the disaster in the sky is over, the disaster on the ground is still threatening the lives of ordinary people.
