Chapter 263: True
"I can't use it anymore," she whispered to herself. "I almost gave up.
Hand...... I can't go on!" she shuddered and closed her eyes.
Then I thought of Stone, standing alone on the high wall facing death. If I give up, his sacrifice is meaningless.
I can't allow that to happen, and I can't let him down. β
She shook her head tremblingly, "I forced the Dragon God's Treasure to obey my orders, but I knew I could only do it once.
I'll never touch it again!"
"Stone is dead?" Wade's voice trembled slightly.
Lolana looked at him, her eyes softening.
"I'm sorry, Wade," she said.
"I didn't think you didn't know yet. He- he was killed while fighting a dragoon. β
"That'sβthat'......" Wade sobbed.
"Yes, he was not tortured," Lolana said gently. "He didn't suffer too much. β
Wade lowered his head, quickly raising his head as another burst of the ruins of the fortress exploded.
"Legion of Dragons. Lolana muttered. "Our fight is not over. β
Her hand slid towards the sword that had just been fastened to her belt and had belonged to Stone. "Go find Hubble. β
Lolana walked up to the plaza and blinked in the sunlight, surprised to see that it was still daytime.
So much has just happened, and it looks like years have passed.
But the height of the sun only just crossed the outer wall. The main body of the Tower of the Hokkai has completely collapsed, turning into a mass of rubble in the center of the square.
The walkway leading to the dragon god's treasure (except for the place where it was damaged by the dragon) was not damaged, only the dragon god's treasure was buried under the rubble.
The exterior walls are still standing, though some of the players have been breached, and there are still signs of lightning strikes on them.
But those breaches don't have a tidal foe for them.
Lolana noticed that there was silence all around.
She could hear, in the tunnel behind her, the crimson scream of a second dragon dying, the roars of the knights fighting to kill him.
What did those armies do?
Lolana didn't understand and looked around in confusion.
They're about to break through the wall?" she looked up at the fortifications in fear, expecting to see these horrible creatures pouring out like a tidal wave.
Then she saw the sun shining on a pair of armor. She saw the corpse lying on the wall.
Stone - she remembered the dream, the bloody hands of the dragonman who frantically slashed at his corpse.
This must not happen!, she thought to herself. She drew Stone and ran across the square, realizing that the ancient weapon was too heavy for her.
And what weapons?
She hurriedly looked around, Dragon Slayer Spear!
Dropping her sword, she picked up a spear.
Then he easily took the spear used by the infantry and walked up the stairs.
Lolana ran to the top of the fortifications and looked out over the plain ahead, expecting to see the tide of black crushing the dragon legions.
But the whole plain was empty, except for a few groups of humans gathered out of nowhere.
What was going on? Lolana didn't understand, she was too tired to think. Her momentum was gone.
Weariness and sadness began to envelop her.
Lolana dragged the dragon slayer spear and slowly walked to the blood-stained wall, where Stone had died.
Lolana knelt beside the knight. She reached out and brushed his windswept hair away, and looked at her friend's face again.
For the first time since she met him, Lolana saw peace in Stone Stone's eyes.
He took his cold hand and pressed it against her cheek. "Sleep, dear friend. She muttered. "Don't let dragons appear in your dreams. β
As she folded Stone's pale hands over the shattered armor, she saw a shining object in the snow.
She picked up something that was covered in snow and couldn't see its shape.
Lolana carefully brushed away the congealed blood and snow. It was a star diamond.
Lolana looked at the gem in amazement, the light in her eyes flickering on and off.
Before she could figure out why it was here, a shadow swooped over her.
Lolana heard the clattering of wings, the sound of loud breathing. She jumped up in fear and immediately turned around.
Two blue dragons landed on the wall behind her.
Its huge claws easily crush stones and find a place to land. The guy's huge wings fanned the air.
The dragoon will ride on the dragon's back, under a hideous mask, and look coldly at Lolana with stern eyes.
Long Wei made Lorana take a step back.
The dragon slayer slipped from her numb hand, and the star diamond fell to the snow.
She turned and tried to escape, but she couldn't see what was in front of her.
She slipped and fell stiffly beside Stone.
In the midst of numbing fear, she had only one thing on her mind, that dream!
Just like Stone, she's going to die here.
All she could see in her eyes was the blue scales that the blue dragon had seen as it flew over her head.
The Dragonslayer Lance rolled towards it in the snow, Lolana's fingers gripping its wooden hilt.
She began to get up, trying to plunge it into the dragon's neck.
A black boot stomped on the dragon slayer spear, almost stepping on her hand.
Lolana looked at the gleaming black boots, which were decorated with gold patterns.
She watched the boots step on Stone's blood, and she took a deep breath.
"If you dare to touch his corpse, I will kill you," Lolana said softly.
"Your dragon can't save you. This knight is my friend, and I don't intend to let his killer defile his body. β
"I'm not going to defile this body," said the dragoon.
She crouched down in graceful slow motion, tenderly closing the knight's eyes, which had been fixed on the sun, which could no longer be seen.
The dragoon will stand up and face the elven woman kneeling in the snow, removing the boots from the dragon slaying spear.
"You know what, he's also my friend. I didn't know until I killed him. Lolana looked up at the dragoon.
"I don't believe you," she said wearily. "How is this possible?"
The dragoon will calmly take off his hideous mask.
"I think you've probably heard of me, Lorana Serasa. That's your name, right?"
Lolana nodded sluggishly and stood up.
The dragoon will show a smile, a narrow smile, with a charming smile. "My name is Ella. β
"How do you know?"
"A dream............ Lolana muttered to herself.
"Oh, yesβthat dream. Ella stroked her black, curly hair with her gloved hand.
"Robert told me about the dream. I'm sure you're all sharing this dream together. He thought his friends should be too. β
The woman looked down at her feet, Stone's already stiffened corpse. "Strange, isn't this the way Stone died in his dream?
Robert said that the dream came true for him: the part where I saved his life. β
Lorana began to tremble. Her face, which was already pale from excessive tiredness, now looks a little more transparent: "Robert?...... Have you seen Robert?"
"Two days ago," Ella said. "I left him in Forosan and let him deal with the problems that happened in my absence. β
Ella's calm voice was like a spear piercing into Stone's body, and it also pierced Lorana's soul.
The ground beneath Lorana's feet began to shake. The sky and the ground mingled, and the pain split her in half.
She's lying. Lolana thought helplessly.
Ella could lie at any time, but she knew in despair that she wasn't now.
Lolana staggered and nearly fell. The only thing that supported her was the competitive spirit of not showing her weaknesses in front of this woman.
Ella didn't notice this, she bent down, picked up the dragon slayer spear, and watched curiously.
"This is the legendary dragon slayer?" Ella asked.
Lorana held back her grief and forced herself to calm down and speak. "Yes," she replied.
"If you want to know its power, you can go inside the tower and see how your dragon is doing. β
Ella looked down at the plaza below, not showing much interest.
"It's not like this to lure my dragon into your trap," she looked at Lorana with calm eyes. "It's not that it's sending my troops scattered. β
Lolana looked at the empty plain again.
"Yes," Ella looked at the look of realization on Lorana's face. "You won β at least today.
Hurry up and celebrate your victory, elves, for your victory will be short-lived. The dragoon fussily toyed with the dragon slayer spear and aimed it at Lorana's heart.
The elf stood unmoved in front of it, expressionless on its face.
Ella smiled. Reverse the dragon slayer spear like lightning. "Thank you for giving me this weapon," she said, holding her dragon slayer spear in the snow.
"We've got information about this weapon, and now we can see if it's as powerful as you claim. β
Ella bowed slightly to Lorana.
Then putting her mask back on, she grabbed the dragon slayer gun and turned to leave.
Before she left, her eyes fell on the knight's body again.
"Give him a knight's funeral," Ella said. "It will take me at least three days to reassemble my troops.
I'm giving you the time to prepare a proper funeral for him. β
"We will bury the dead ourselves," Lolana said proudly. "I don't need your handout!"
Stone's death, the corpse in front of him, all pulled Lolana back to reality from her dreams like a basin of cold water.
Lolana stood between the dragoon and Stone's remains, looking into Ella's eyes under the mask.
"It turns out that all this is true......" Lolana muttered as she stared blankly at the scene in front of her.
The smoke of the battlefield in the distance is still filled, like a strange fairyland, which makes people feel irrepressible despair.
"If you still have a conscience, disappear from my eyes. Ella frowned slightly when she heard this, and a pain that she hadn't felt for a long time suddenly surged into her heart.
"I'll leave now, sorry. Ella said with a blank face.
"Wait. Lolana stopped her.
