Chapter Eighty-Eight: Guarding
Xu Mo's roar woke Deathwing, and the Black Dragon King circled in the air and swooped down towards the falling stalker.
Deathwing's dive was fast, catching up with the stalker in a few breaths, and its thick dragon claws grabbed at Xu Mo like lightning. A dragon and a person stared at each other in mid-air, and through the red chips on the eyes of the mask, the hatred that burst into the blood-red eyes of the stalker made the Black Dragon King, who had survived for more than 10,000 years, feel a palpitation.
"Bang!" Deathwing's dragon claws slid into the air, and the Stalker's body turned into a cloud of smoke out of thin air. Vaguely, the Black Dragon King heard only a cold whisper from the Stalker.
"Next time, wait for next ......"
What about the next time, the king of the black dragon was in a state of uneasiness, and for no reason his heart was furious, his wings shook and rushed towards the elf team on the ground, opening the dragon's mouth wide, and a rich red light quickly lit up in the depths of his throat.
The lightning and flint battle in the air stunned the crowd on the ground, and when they saw that Deathwing failed to catch Xu Mo and pounced on them, the crowd was in a commotion.
"Magician! Gather around me! Elven Elder Herrion shouted calmly, and with his hands raised, a semicircular magic shield hung over everyone's heads, guarding against the flame breath of Deathwing.
"Bang!" Intense flames flew along the magic shield, igniting the outside of the magic shield into a sea of fire.
The bodies of Herrien and the elven mage in the center of the shield shook for a while, and after the magic shield flickered twice, it unwillingly turned into a piece of fluorescent light and dissipated.
Looking at Deathwing, who had been hovering in the sky for a week, once again opening the dragon's mouth widely, ready to breathe, the only one who could still support Aaronis, his face turned pale, holding the magic crystal that Xu Mo handed him over, and raised his hands high.
"Proud elf, let go of your consciousness and let me deal with the King of the Black Dragon!" Just as Aronnis was about to prop up the second magical defense shield, a vicissitudes of life sounded in his ears.
Alonnis was slightly stunned, looking at the black dragon king who was swooping down, only hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and opened his mind, allowing the owner of the voice to invade the deepest part of his consciousness......
In the next moment, Alonnis's elven pupils were blank, his body floated slightly in the air, holding up the magic crystal in his hand, and a difficult magic spell sounded in his mouth.
"It's ...... Guardian Magical Power! Herrien looked at his elven companion in astonishment.
The crystal in Aaronis's hand lit up with a brilliant light with the sound of the incantation, and then burst into the air, turning into a meteor that shot into Deathwing's mouth with lightning speed.
"Boom!" The magic energy crystal, which contains powerful magical power, is controlled by a mysterious force and explodes in the mouth of the black dragon king.
"Whew!" Deathwing roared in pain and turned away from the battlefield, a cloud of dragon blood spilling from its mouth in black smoke.
"Oh!!" The ground resounded with the cheers of the elves.
……
"Let him be alone for a while!" Thassarian waved his hand to the crowd and led them away.
Xu Mo was covered in bandages and sat in front of a large pit, most of his ribs had been crushed by Deathwing. After evading Deathwing's pursuit with her smoke skills, it was Serna who finally found the stalker who was crouching in the grass and unable to move due to her severe injuries, thanks to the connection between the reincarnations. Although he had already taken a piece of Apollo's secret medicine, it would take time for the broken ribs to recover.
Compared with the injuries on his body, Tesmerissa, who was lying in the big pit in front of him, made him feel even more intense heartache. Staring at the dragon's eye, which had lost its brilliance, the corners of Xu Mo's mouth twitched slightly, he never thought that a young dragon that he regarded as a mount would bring him such a gloomy feeling.
As the sunset on the horizon, Xu Mo, who had been silent for a long time, finally stood up, slowly walked into the pit, took out a bottle of dreadclaw egg liquid from his arms, and placed it beside Tesmerissa.
"Little one, I will never ride any air ride again, you will be my only companion in the air! Forever! ”
……
On the second day, the elves set out again, with the Red Dragon and Griffin Knights in their ranks. The red dragons hovered in the air, occasionally letting out a low dragon whistle to pay homage to a dragon tomb at the foot of Mount Taquilin, where one of their young clansmen rested.
"The valiant red dragon - Tesmerissa!" Xu Mo personally used the demon's fangs to engrave an epitaph on a bluestone tablet. Underneath the epitaph is "Dragon Knight Cole! As a signature of the epitaph.
The elven advance team, which was tasked with purifying the sunwell, defeated the Scourge Legion that came to stop it. However, the reason why this battle is remembered by the world is that after this, the little red dragon Tesmerissa bravely fought against Deathwing in order to rescue the dragon knight, ignoring the difference in strength between the two sides.
This battle was also regarded by all future dragon knights as a symbol of loyalty and friendship between dragons and dragon knights. In later generations of Azeroth, the Battle of Taquelin is also known as the Death of the Dragon Knight.
Tesmerissa was given the title of "Guardian of the Dragon Knights" and was revered by all future dragon knights and their dragons.
In the Third War of Azeroth, the epic hero Cole, who was born out of nowhere, was given many names after his inexplicable disappearance. But of these titles, only two titles are recognized by the proud High Elves, one is the Uncrowned King of the Elves and the other is the Dragon Knight Cole.
In the future, Quel'Salas, who re-established the country, was on the verge of annihilation even if it encountered a major war. The High Elves also maintain a strong elven guard in Taquelin in case the dragon's tomb is watched on by unscrupulous people.
The Red Dragon Clan did not relocate the Dragon Tomb back to the Temple of the Dragon's Sleep, and Tesmerissa's parents, whether it was the Red Dragon Queen Alexstasa or Crassus, all acquiesced to the Taquelin Dragon Tomb as the resting place of the little Red Dragon, commemorating Tesmerissa's heroic sacrifice on the battlefield to rescue the Dragon Knight.
……
"Boss, Aaronis wants to see you!" Serna slipped into Xu Mo's tent lightly and looked at Xu Mo worriedly.
Three days had passed since the Battle of Taquilin, and they were approaching Silvermoon City. However, their boss is still a bit half-dead, and basically doesn't do anything every day, except for eating and sleeping.
"Don't worry about me, I'm not that fragile yet!" Xu Mo glanced at Serna lightly, "Let him in!" There are some things he really should give me an explanation! ”
Serna nodded and stepped back from the tent. After a few moments, Aronis frowned and walked into the tent.
"Who are you?" Xu Mo looked at Aronnis Sunstrider in silence.
"Young Stalker, as Aaronis said, your senses are keen!" A pale green transparent figure emerged from Aaronis's body, broke away from the Magister, and stood in front of Xu Mo, "My name is Medivan!" ”
"Medivan? The Book of Medivan? The Last Guardian to Open the Dark Door? Xu Mo's eyes slowly narrowed, shining with an inexplicable light.
