Chapter 139: The Past

"Alright, now let's talk about what we're talking about. ”

After sorting through Heras's memories, Iroh set his sights on the blindfolded ancient white dragon. He could feel that there was a condensed momentum in the other party, quiet and majestic, just like a real god.

It can only show that today's Iroh still feels this way, which can only show ...... This white dragon is very strong, and it may even be beyond the scope of the white dragon clan!

Sure enough, it was the right choice to delay the summoning as much as possible.

"I don't think there's any need to talk about it, I'll join the Tokamaks. ”

Unexpectedly, Helfras actually agreed, which made Iroh can't help but show a look of interest.

"Oh?" he tilted his head, "I don't think a normal white dragon would do that. ”

Helberas shook his head: "Now I ...... It shouldn't be normal anymore. And, in fact, I am ready, if fate puts me in front of you, I will definitely agree to your request. ”

"Fate?"

"Well, although it's the first time we've met, you'll be interested in my business. ”

Accompanied by the words of the ancient white dragon with a slight vicissitudes of life, Airo heard a rather unique story.

Hundreds of years ago, Helfras, who had just entered his youth and was unable to skillfully use his talents, fought with a Skywing follower who had been tracked all the way, and in the end, although the Skywing follower was seriously injured and retreated, Helfras was also wounded almost fatally.

To make matters worse, his original lair was also taken over by another white dragon, his own brother, who was jealous of his early wisdom.

With nowhere else to go, he finally collapsed in an abandoned beast's den in the wilderness on a snowy day.

In a trance, Helfras saw a vague figure approaching with his eyes half-closed, and he could vaguely discern that it was a woman. He subconsciously wanted to threaten her to stay away, but found that he couldn't say a word, his whole body was in tearing pain, and his life was losing little by little.

Seeing the figure leaning over, the outline of a human girl gradually became clearer, and a pair of clear eyes seemed to be surprised and shocked, but there was no hatred and fear that Helfras expected.

Why is this so? The white dragon is an evil colored dragon, and for humans, shouldn't they flee immediately, or report it to the adventurers, or even the metal dragon?

At that time, Helfras didn't know a belief that the druids upheld, and he didn't think that anyone would be able to tolerate even colored dragons.

However, out of the instinct of survival, Helfras still wanted to open his eyes hard, but before he could open his eyes, the figure quickly got up and left, and the disappointment and anger swept over in an instant, and Heilfras suddenly roared and wanted to kill!

Sure enough, I'm going to find the metal dragon, right?

It doesn't matter, they've already been betrayed once anyway. He thought angrily.

At this point, he believes that he will never trust anyone in his life again, and he will no longer easily believe in any dragons.

The figure gradually turned into a small black dot and disappeared from the end of sight. Helfrass was eerily calm, perhaps...... It's not bad to end like this.

When I woke up, it was already night, and in the dim cave, there were only lights to light up.

"Are you awake?" a soft female voice said, and Helbflas struggled to open his eyes. A girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old was kneeling beside her, with a clear face and a pair of watery eyes looking at her worriedly. "My name is Shalena, are you alright?"

"Fuck off, human, before I'm hungry. ”

Helfras spoke, his voice hoarse and violent. If he hadn't been able to move at this time, he would have swallowed this girl in his stomach for the first time.

"But your injuries aren't healed yet?"

With an expected smile, Salena paused for a moment to change to a more soothing voice before continuing, "By the way, what's your name?"

Helfras was stunned for a moment, then remembered the memories of before he fell unconscious.

That's right, it's her, the figure who left in my memory.

He was a little puzzled, why did he come back when he chose to leave without hesitation? For humans, colored dragons shouldn't have been rescued, should they?

Besides, I once struggled so strongly to live, but in the end I found that death was not a relief, even if I was unwilling, what could I do if I became what I am now?

He felt heartache and anger, but more despair.

"It's none of your business, woman. Helfras said coldly, although she did save herself, but it did not change the antagonism between the two races. He was sure that as long as he recovered, he would definitely kill her, otherwise even if she didn't tell others about her whereabouts, the Celestial Wings would find clues from here.

The so-called incompatibility is the relationship between the colored dragon and the metal dragon today. Therefore, humans, who are allies of the metal dragon, should also have this relationship with themselves.

"But, I can't tell you 'hey' during this time, can I?" Shalena smirked twice, not dwelling too much on the issue, but first took out a few large pieces of fragrant barbecue from the storage equipment she carried with her, and placed a small pile of them full, "Okay, let's not talk about this, let's eat something first, your body needs to replenish energy now." ”

As she spoke, Shalena laughed, scratched her head a little embarrassedly, and said with a little distress: "Well, in fact, this is the first time I have handled dragon food...... I've heard that dragons generally prefer to eat raw, right? But now you're like this, it's better to cook it a little better, isn't it?"

Apparently her slightly silly kindness was not reciprocated at all.

"What exactly do you want?"

Helfras turned his head coldly, "If you want to catch me and ask your metal dragon master for credit, you can already do it, there is no need for me to recover." ”

Shalena was silent for a moment, then whispered, "I'm a druid...... It's a newbie, but it's ...... I'd love to see the colored dragon and the metal dragon live in peace. ”

"......" Helfras discovers that this woman has a problem with her brain, and the problem is not small.

Peaceful coexistence and metal dragons?

What are you kidding, my greatest wish is to kill all the metal dragons!

It seemed that she also sensed the disdain of the white dragon, and Shalena stopped talking, and the atmosphere suddenly became dull.

After a while, the aroma of the roasted meat irritated Helfras's stomach, and he no longer hesitated, lowered his head and began to eat it in large gulps.

It's already so miserable anyway, it doesn't matter if it's toxic......

Thinking to himself, Helfras quickly devoured several large pieces of roasted meat.

Time passes minute by minute in this process. Shalena was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say, so she could only be silent and watch Helfras eat.

Helbflas was silent as well, and for a moment only the sound of chewing echoed in the lair.

When Helfras had finished eating, Shalena simply cleaned up, then extinguished the fire, got up and walked towards the entrance of the cave, "Rest well, I'll come back to see you tomorrow." ”

"You don't have to come back again, woman. ”

Behind him, Helfras's indifferent voice floated, jerky and hoarse, he had had enough, this ignorant woman...... She didn't know anything at all, she was so naΓ―ve!

The next moment, however, Shalena turned around. Under the light of the cave entrance, the lines of the girl's face were particularly soft and blurry, and her slender figure was shrouded in a faint brilliance, like some kind of creature more noble and beautiful than an elf.

By the way, Helbflas remembered, like a fairy dragon, or the legendary iridescent dragon.

Pure eyes reflected the figure of Helfras lying on the ground, and there was only silence in Salena's eyes.

"Why?"

β€œ......”

Helfras looked directly into Salena's eyes, and saw her embarrassed form clearly. Yes, now I don't even seem to have the right to refuse......

Soon, however, this pessimistic thought was shattered by the girl's whispers.

"At least I'll be coming over every day until you recover. You don't have to worry about anything, I'm not going to let anyone know about it. Peace ...... between colored dragons and metal dragons It's a long way off, but no matter what, you have to work hard from now on. It's like they say, there's always a glimmer of hope, isn't it?"

Shalena smiled, turned around and walked on, "So, don't give up." As long as you live, there is hope, and if you die, there is really nothing. ”

Helbflas didn't speak again, and with the soft voice of the girl, something seemed to gradually begin to melt in his heart. Without uttering any more cold words, he just stared at Salena's back and faded away until he could no longer see it.

"Hope ......"

The young white dragon fell into deep thought.

Time passed quickly, and it was midnight in the blink of an eye.

There was a dead silence in the cave in the middle of the night, except for the muffled gasps of the white dragon from time to time.

I usually think highly of myself, but I have fallen to this point, and I was preached by a stupid woman, it's really embarrassing...... Is...... It's a shame.

When he was thinking wildly, inexplicably, the gentle smile of the girl appeared in front of Helfras's eyes again, and her words rang in his ears for no reason, there is hope for life......

Wish?

Helberas's eyes widened in anger, but he didn't know where his anger was coming from, and he let out a roar of pain, his body still not moving.

Ridiculous, why should I listen to a woman?!

Human beings are inherently weak and fickle beings, and if there is no metal dragon, if they don't cling to some powerful forces, I'm afraid they only deserve to be toyed with!

She has a hypocritical face on the surface, but in fact, she has always wished I was dead like this! Yes, she must have thought so! She had long wanted me to die but came to take care of me, a stupid and selfish woman......

But why did she come back?

Obviously left at the time, didn't he?

The contradictory inner struggle stopped, and the turbulence in Helfras's eyes gradually subsided.

Yes, he remembered Salena's face, and that slightly worried look in her eyes, and she turned back despite her previous behavior.

Most humans are weak and fickle, but perhaps, she's a little different, right?

Hope is sometimes born in an instant.

This night, the fate of some people was different.
