"The orcs tried to do this, but unfortunately failed." Wu Chen shook his head with a smile: "And according to my estimate, even the most important dragon soul stones have been lost here, so those wolf cavalry who are constantly being sent in are actually trying to recover the lost dragon soul stones." β
"So, that's what the dragon that had had a scale cut off by the Elven King of the Dark Jungle had us here?" The archbishop has finally connected the cause and effect.
Wu Chen nodded: "That's right." The situation at that time should have been: two dragons fought for the dragon soul stone swallowed by one of the dragons, and the elven king, orcs, and the witch king of Angmar followed suit, wanting to take advantage of the treasure trove that the dragon had looted from the dwarves. I never thought that it was the evil dragon that swallowed the dragon soul stone that was killed in battle......"
Bayonetta completes the following plot: "Coincidentally, the dragon who died in battle also fell into a volcanic crater, the extinct volcano of Gondaba Mountain, and the body was immediately divided by the orcs, and the dragon soul stone was able to reappear. β
Joan of Arc quickly said the ending: "Then, under the erosion of the Dragon Soul Stone, the orcs began to dig desperately to the northwest, and finally opened up the Angolo Fallum Doomsday Volcano, which sank to the bottom of the sea with the Bellan Continent, and found the remains of the black dragon Ankara Gang......"
Speaking of this, everyone suddenly woke up: "Remains! β
Wu Chen turned over and stepped off the wolf's back. Look around the silent volcanic hearth. Squat slowly. Bring your palms towards the ground.
Sure enough, as the tentacles of the spiritual power released from the outside continued to drill in, the dark ground gradually lit up with a little red light!
The light seemed to be contagious, lighting up countless nodes. Soon, the outline of a dragon's head became clearer and clearer on the soles of everyone's feet!
"Oh my God......" huge head exceeded everyone's expectations. It was like standing on an Amba pirate ship!
Wait for Wu Chen to use his spiritual power to light up all the energy circuits of this dragon head. Finally noticed something unusual. In the roof of the palate in front of the dragon's head's eyes, there is a huge and ugly black hole. The energy that inadvertently flows through the edge of the black hole will be swallowed by the black hole without resistance.
"You were ......really killed by the divine light of the Elven Treasure Diamond," accompanied by Wu Chen's muttered whisper, the energy circuits that lit up the dragon's head drilled out of the ground one after another, weaving into a robed human form.
"Great human powerhouse, I have finally waited for your arrival." The robed man, who was completely gathered by the streamer, humbly bent down and saluted.
"You're a ...... Black Dragon King? β
"If you're talking about the Black Dragon King who once soared through the sky and could block out the sun, I'm not him. But if you have a poor creature named Ankaragang, it is me. β
Wu Chen understood: "6000 (The Second Age lasts 3441 years.) The Third Age lasts 3021 years, and the moment is 2941 years of the Third Age) for many years. You must have had a hard time. β
"As you said, all the time, I have endured the scorching of the 'Burning God Fire', and thousands of years have passed, and most of my soul has been burned to ashes as lamp oil." Although what the robed man said seemed to have nothing to do with him, Wu Chen could still hear the pain and torture that came out of the depths of his soul.
The robed man in front of him who was talking to Wu Chen was the broken soul of the Black Dragon King Ankara.
The reason why the psionic body was broken with only one head was because for more than 6,000 years after the end of the First Age, his soul had been used as a firewood for the burning of the 'Burning Flame'.
Easy to understand, like all the giants in Dark Souls.
And the so-called 'Burning God Fire' is the flame of light from the Elven Diamond. And the reason why the Spirit Diamond is so dazzling is because it seals the last light of the twin sacred trees.
Just as the memory that the black dragon Ankara had just shown to Wu Chen described, the brightest star in the night sky, Elendil, pierced the jaw of the black dragon Ankara with a beam of light from the Elven Diamond. Then, the flame of light from the World Tree, the nemesis of the dark creatures, was like a fire attached to the bones, burning the powerful soul of the Black Dragon King all the time.
This burn is 6,000 years.
Even the Wuxin King Gwen didn't last long enough!
Of course, there is a deeper connotation in this. That is the opposition between light and darkness. Darkness breeds the brightest light. In other words, if darkness does not exist, light naturally does not exist. This is the best interpretation of what the Black Dragon King has endured for six thousand years.
Because your powerful dark soul remains, the flame from the Twin Sacred Trees will not be extinguished. When your dark soul is burned, the flame will naturally be extinguished at that time.
Not only the black dragon, but the existence of the Lord of the Rings also confirms the establishment of this rule.
When Sauron's One Ring melted down on Mount Doom, the Elven Three Rings, who had fought against it for thousands of years, also lost their magic.
Therefore, without the protection of the Ring, the elves of the Rings and the Golden Forest, who could not live forever, crossed the sea one after another.
As for why the wood elves in the dark forest stayed, Wu Chen personally felt that they had found love that was more precious than immortality.
This plot is also shown at the end of the Battle of the Five Armies. When the heroine of Peter the Great's apocryphal figure kneels beside the dwarven body and cries to the Elven King that if this is love, I'd rather not, the Elven King finally recognizes her identity.
At that time, Wu Chen understood that the reason why the elf king felt that the heroine was not worthy of his son was not because of the heroine's wood elf bloodline, but because she didn't know how to love.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Elf King, what is noble is not blood, but love.
Wu Chen couldn't help but sigh, sure enough, the rumors are true, the crew of Peter the Great is really loving......
For this, he even made up a heroine. So everyone, do you understand (incense 45 Β° looking at the sky)?
Of course, this is not a departure from the original.
Think about true love for Aragon. And Alvin, who gave up his eternal life. Isn't it a feeling of sudden realization?
So. The elves of the Fourth Age, although they have lost the ability to live forever, still retain much longer lives than humans. It's also closer to the elves of most fantasy worlds.
Putting away his divergent thoughts, Wu Chen set his eyes on the humble Ankara Gang in front of him.
"What can I do for you?"
The robed man, who seemed to be waiting for Wu Chen to say this, lowered his head even more humbly: "Great strong man, are you willing to save me?" Save a fabled Dark Apostle, a servant of Morgoth who has brought endless war and calamity to the land? β
Wu Chen was a little subconsciously disgusted by this humility: "Please stand up." Whatever choice I make. It doesn't matter how much you bend your waist. β
"Yes, great and powerful." The robed man finally straightened up.
Under the hood is a completely disappeared face, and there is no facial features at all.
"What are you hiding from me?" Wu Chen suddenly spoke.
"What?" The robed man asked rhetorically.
"What are you hiding from me?" Wu Chen said again.
"All-knowing powerhouse, I am now broken and decayed, it is extremely difficult to maintain the Origin Fire, and if there is really something to hide, it is also a soul fragment that I cannot control." The robed man humbly spoke.
Wu Chen stared at his empty body for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "That's right, it's not your problem. β
"So, great powerhouse. Would you like to help me get free? β
Wu Chen first shook his head and then nodded: "Wait a minute." β
"What other questions do you have?"
"I'm counting." Wu Chen seemed to have spent all his energy on calculations: "6 stars are demigods, and 7 stars should be gods." There is also the main god above the gods, that is, 8 stars, and 9 stars are obviously the god kings. However, the energy line is different in different worlds. Considering that Middle-earth is an A-tier world...... 7 stars. β
Wu Chen seemed to have come to a conclusion that only he could understand.
And the robed figure standing across from him with his hands tied was completely confused.
"Seven-star ......," Ophelia murmured. It seems that the female companion who has been silently by Wu Chen's side seems to understand.
Anyway, only the Black Dragon King alone doesn't understand.
"Master?" The archbishop, who had only lived a good life for a few days, did not want Wu Chen to be in danger alone.
"Who said I'm the only one, isn't there still you?" Wu Chen pointed to his head and smiled confidently.
"But......" Although the archbishop still wanted to say something, he saw that the Black Dragon King had turned his empty head to himself, so he closed his mouth helplessly. But the lingering worry in his eyes was deeply imprinted in Wu Chen's heart.
Taking a deep breath, Wu Chen smiled at the Black Dragon King's energy spirit body and said with a pleasant smile: "How can I save you?" β
"Pluck out the fire poison for me, or use the fire of your mind to kindle the flame even higher." This answer is not unexpected.
Wu Chen nodded: "It's very reasonable." β
Wu Chen himself was not a dark attribute, let alone a dark creature, so the holy light of the Twin Sacred Trees was harmless to him. The greedy point is to take this beam of divine light from the Twin Sacred Trees for his own use. And the more prudent way is to use the dark side of the soul to add firewood to the holy flame, make the flame burn more vigorously, quickly incinerate the only remaining broken soul of the Black Dragon King, and solve his long-standing pain once and for all.
And Wu Chen, who burns the dark side of his heart, will not only not damage his soul, but will also exercise more purely.
So, both options are possible.
Wu Chen nodded happily: "It's very reasonable." β
The robed man was immediately excited: "So, may I ask which method you want to use?" β
"Tell me, what should I do?" Wu Chen said with a smile.
"Okay, okay......" This seems to be a broken memory, the Black Dragon King's psionic body searches the intestines and scrapes the stomach, and the mouth keeps muttering okay, good, good, and then ...... And then there is no more!
Obviously, except for the two methods that can liberate him themselves, the 'magic theory' and 'logical judgment' that support these two methods are all gone!
As a result, the brain, which cannot read the relevant database, begins an infinite endless loop......
After waiting quietly for a long time, Wu Chen smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, think slowly." Oh, a little gift for you. Would you like to? (To be continued......)
