Chapter 42: The End of the Battle
Xu Mo looked at the sky in the distance with complicated eyes, and the air battle in the world of Azeroth opened his eyes. In the sky, wyverns and griffons were entangled, accompanied by fiery red dragon breaths and colorful fighting spirits, these churning and flying behemoths sometimes circled gracefully, sometimes sprinting bravely.
Each collision was like Mars hitting the Earth, sprinkled with dragon scales and eagle feathers, and the behemoths roared miserably, staining the sky with blood. Some behemoths are able to struggle to take off again before falling to the ground, but many more will fall directly into the rubble pile at the foot of Mount Gribato, breaking into a mass of minced flesh.
Among these behemoths, the most striking are the four dragons in the center of the battlefield. Crassus, who arrived on the battlefield first, was shot down and severely damaged by Deathwing, and Deathwing also obtained two dragon eggs from the Dragonmaw clan in the first impact, but when the old black dragon wanted to get the third dragon egg, the other guardian dragons contacted by Crassus came to the battlefield.
The Eternal, the Bronze Dragon King Nozdorm, the Green Dragon Queen Isera, the owner of the Emerald Dream, and the Magician, the Blue Dragon Malygos, are the three guardian dragons that fight with Deathwing.
His gaze swept across the battlefield, and Xu Mo frowned tightly. When Crassus and Flamebeard's patrol first arrived, their side had the upper hand. The griffon knights, led by Kogan Flamebeard, also organized an assault to save them from halfway up the mountain, and confronted the Dragonmaw Clan in the wilderness below.
However, the good times were short-lived, and after the arrival of Deathwing, Crassus was quickly shot down, and even the three guardian dragons were unable to fight Deathwing under the influence of the "Demon Soul".
They were too close to the Demon Souls, and the power of the Titans on their bodies was strongly suppressed, while Deathwing was not affected in any way, and it seemed that it was only a matter of time before the other guardian dragons were shot down by Deathwing one by one.
After losing Crassus, Necrus reorganized the orcs and began to erode the dwarven warriors' defenses, and he was desperate to reclaim the "Demon Souls", no matter what the outcome of this dragon battle was, without the "Demon Souls" in his hands, the Dragonthroat Clan would be wiped out.
Xu Mo's leg injury was almost healed, and the stalker turned his head to look at the other companions. They were surrounding the "Demon Souls", trying to destroy the artifact, and it was clear that everyone realized that the "Demon Souls" were the key to the outcome of this battle.
It seems that this historical plot has entered a bottleneck, and there will be no other changes! A hint of clarity flashed in Xu Mo's eyes, the reason why he was still unwilling to destroy the "Demon Soul" was not because he wanted the mission to fail, but because he wanted to make the entire history go according to the original script, and he would never interfere without seeing the last detail.
"Ronin!" Xu Mo greeted in a deep voice and tossed the black dragon scales he kept to the mage, "The 'Demon Soul' can't affect Deathwing, maybe its scales can destroy this artifact." ”
"Deathwing's dragon scales?" Luo Ning was stunned for a moment, rubbed his fingers on the dragon scales~ rubbed, and immediately slashed towards the "Demon Soul" with the dragon scales.
A bright light flashed on the large golden plate, and a circle of light floated on the surface to protect itself. Everyone was no stranger to this, but this time the situation seemed to be slightly different, as they saw Deathwing's dragon scales cut the "Demon Soul" in half along with the protective aura on its surface like slicing tofu.
When the large golden plate is cut, it makes a screeching sound, as if it is the mournful cry of an animal before it is slaughtered. The "Demon Soul" cut in half was dull, and the bright golden yellow on the surface seemed to have lost its luster and turned into two pieces of mortal iron.
In the distance, Necruz, who was fighting with Kogan Flamebeard and Amira, suddenly turned pale as snow, stumbled under his feet, barely blocked Kogan's heavy blow, and was immediately smashed into a patty by Amira's sledgehammer. The leader of the Dragonmaw Clan, the most prominent orc warlock, became the first trophy of the Dwarven Maiden after regaining her sanity.
The battle in the sky has likewise changed dramatically with the destruction of the "Demon Souls". Although Deathwing did not reduce its combat power, the other three guardian dragons regained their full strength. Three-on-one, Deathwing was hit hard by his ancient brothers almost in a single face, and black scales flew down with the flames in his body.
"Whew!" An angry roar rang out from the top of Grimbaatar's mountain, and the Red Dragon Queen was finally freed, and the chains that bound her body were torn like noodles by her.
With the roar of the Red Dragon Queen, the red dragons in the sky seemed to have been awakened from their sleep, and they roared angrily and overturned the orc knights on their bodies, tearing these original dragon knights to pieces, and at the same time began to hunt down the Dragonthroat Clan on the ground. It seems that they will not stop until they exterminate the Dragonthroat Clan.
The Red Dragon Queen leaps to the top of Gribato Mountain and dashes into the Deathwing in the air. After 10,000 years, the five guardian dragons finally soared in the same sky at the same time again. Deathwing didn't dare to continue the fight, and fled away with the two dragon eggs.
Three of the other four guardian dragons pursued the black dragon closely, leaving only the Red Dragon Queen Alexstaza, who was to use her power to heal Cleostraz (Crassus).
Although the battle was not completely over, this historical plot should have come to an end, and continuous prompts began to sound in Xu Mo's soul imprint.
"Samsara 228, you have reached a soul contract with the epic story creature Deathwing, and the black dragon Scales will be yours and will be transformed into a unique treasure of Azeroth by space. It can be used as gems, equipment materials, soul and bloodline items, and can be sold to Spaces as uncounted Atlas specimens to obtain 20,000 credits, three superstring skill stones, and 15 honor points. ”
Xu Mo was a little speechless, as an uncounted illustrated book, the reward of the space is not high. In terms of value, a single piece of Deathwing's dragon scales does not contain much dark flame power, and it cannot reach the bloodline power of level B or above. But for Xu Mo, it was the key to improving the Hell Black Flame, and he would never be able to trade it to the space.
"Reincarnation No. 228, you have completed the second stage of the Ronin mercenary mission, and the task rewards are 2 free attributes, 3 honor points, and a soul gem."
"Samsara 228, you have completed the legendary historical episode of Azeroth: Age of the Dragon. In this legendary history, you are an important member of Ronin's team, witnessing four key plots: the liberation of the Red Dragon Queen, the destruction of the Dragonthroat Clan, the disappearance of the artifact 'Demon Souls', and the birth of two future offspring of Deathwing, with a total of 0.7% World Exploration.
Mission Rewards: You can choose any five of the following seven items as the final reward.
A. 100,000 credits, five superstring skill stones, 10 free attributes;
B, 30 honor points;
C. Fifteen soul gems, five superstring gems;
D. Two blank skill scrolls (which can record the professional skills of any combat profession in the world);
E. Two superstring law fusion stones (which can turn some plot items into equipment items that can be brought into space);
F. Reincarnation second-order transfer props (soul lock items);
G. Invitation Letter for Speaker Candidate (Soul Lock Item). ”
The benefits of this task have long been familiar to Xu Mo, and there is nothing to think about at this time, so he quickly selected the five rewards A, B, D, E, and F, and gave up the two items of C and G.
With the existence of the Black Dragon Reverse Scale, Xu Mo's demand for soul gems has been temporarily relaxed. As for the invitation letter for the candidate speaker, although the thing is good, Xu Mo doesn't think that he particularly needs such a thing, and he is fully confident that he can defeat the other candidates in the current space.
In this legendary plot, if Xu Mo is still dissatisfied, it is the degree of world exploration he has obtained. Originally, he thought that he would be able to get at least 0.9% or more World Exploration, but he didn't expect to get only 0.7%.
Thinking about it, Xu Mo still doesn't understand where he hasn't done enough, and he is worried about the shortage of 0.3% of the world exploration, which is equivalent to the world exploration of a black iron plot!
However, when he saw Luo Ning and Amira in the distance, his heart moved, maybe the 0.3% world exploration he lacked should be these two people. Without himself, Amira should not be in Ronin's team, in that case, it is impossible for Necrus to be killed by Ronin, and perhaps in this legendary plot, he is missing one or two key plots.
Luo Ning was supposed to belong to the legendary hero, but judging from his current performance, he can't meet the standard of the legend. Originally, that Luo Ning in history should have behaved better, but now that there is one more Xu Mo, his performance is shared by the rest of the team.
Bridget, Wen Leisha, Xu Mo, Amira, the four of them snatched away a lot of heroic performances that originally belonged to Luo Ning, since Luo Ning can't become a legendary hero, then it is obvious that Xu Mo's legendary plot mission is missing a key plot, so that Xu Mo can understand why a total of 1% of the world exploration degree will be missing 0.3%.
Thinking of this, Xu Mo was secretly a little glad that if he had destroyed the "Demon Soul" by himself just now, the degree of world exploration would be even lower. In fact, Xu Mo has experienced more than this historical plot, and in the near future, he will find that there is another plot that is not big or small.
"Cole, I'm finally seeing you face to face!" In the distance, a handsome middle-aged mage slowly walked towards Xu Mo, this is Clyostraz who has returned to human form after being healed by the Red Dragon Queen.
"Crassus, I'm glad you're able to get back to health!" Xu Mo said cautiously.
"I'm here to fulfill my agreement with you, except for the dragon scales that have been handed over to you. The Red Dragons will escort you to the Chapel of Light's Wish in the Eastern Plaguelands, and ...... All the books you asked for are here! Crassus's face was still a little pale, but he was in good spirits, and he rescued his queen and wife, which made the young male red dragon feel very good.
"Oh, is this the book material about the Phantom Stalker in the Great Library of Dalaran?" Xu Mo's eyes lit up, and he reached out to take the book in Crassus's hand.
However, Crassus's hand shrank and looked at Xu Mo seriously, "I don't know if it's right or wrong to give you these books." But I hope you're on the right path, even if you're a mercenary, you're a mercenary of the Alliance! ”
Xu Mo's eyes flashed, knowing that this extremely intelligent red dragon was suspicious of Deathwing's arrival, after all, as long as he asked the others, he would be able to know that the magic embellishment (dragon scales) that connected Deathwing was always in his hands.
"Sometimes, history needs the truth, doesn't it?" Xu Mo took the book in Crassus's hand and showed a meaningful smile.
"Cole, Cole, hahaha!" Just as Crassus wanted to say something to Xu Mo, he saw Coughan and Amira walking briskly towards this side, so he had to bow gracefully and leave first.
"Kogan, you owe me a big favor!" Xu Mo looked at the two dwarves and sighed.
"Hehe, I hope you can make me owe another favor!" Kogan scratched his head and said a little embarrassed.
Amira who was standing beside him pouted silently, holding her hands behind her back and drawing circles on the ground with her toes, looking like she was twisting and pinching, which made Xu Mo feel a chill, and a bead of sweat slowly oozed from his back, and he had a very bad premonition.
