(89) Black Dragon (Lily Nono, III)
The black dragon spread its wings and swept through the air silently. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
For Lily's appearance, he didn't show the slightest emotion. Perhaps the moment he was made into a dragon lich, he lost all his emotions and became a puppet with the ability to think, but only existed to protect the 'treasure'.
"It's a sad feeling." Lily sighed loudly, whether the other party could hear it or not, "Compared to that, the greedy and grumpy Ru of the past is at least more like a living person?" ”
"He—he's seen it!" Elio said in a bit of a panic, and immediately changed to a resolute look, "Come on, come on, bastard!" Rush down! Let me cut off your claws with a sword! ”
The dragon lich raised its claws, but it was clear that the young knight's longsword simply couldn't reach it. He pointed his paw at Lily and the others as he let out a long, dull and meandering groan—the language of the dragons.
The magic power quickly gathered under the restraint of the dragon language, and Lily felt that her body became heavy in an instant, and even the simple act of raising her hand required twice the original strength. She tried to look at the people around her, and it was clear that none of them were going well.
"Don't worry, Lilianor." Alphons' voice was much slower, but still calm, "It's just a simple secret technique, let me get rid of it as soon as possible." ”
Once again, Jill walked through the open door and dealt the black dragon a heavy blow from behind. This succeeded in attracting his attention, as well as a second death-laden breath. At the same time, a light blue aura spread outward from Alphonse's palm, dissipating the weight of everyone's body in turn.
Lily turned her head to look behind her. Ann had taken refuge farther away to avoid being accidentally injured by the black dragon's breath or spells. With her eyes closed, Ariel pressed her greatsword to the ground, seemingly ready to attack.
The black dragon raised its claws again, intending to cast another spell. But this time, the mercenary didn't plan to let it go.
She turned into a howling wind, swept through at a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye, and then condensed a large, wind-pressed fist in front of the skeleton, and beckoned straight to the other person's face.
The punch caused the dragon lich's long groan to disappear instantly, and the spell that was about to take shape was forced to dissipate. Lily quickly flew high up, away from the black dragon's side—making contact with the aura of death that enveloped her body make her feel uncomfortable.
The dragon lich turned his spur-strewn neck and looked at Lily in the air, and Jill, who had used the dimensional gate to launch two surprise attacks on him. Then he turned his head back and seemed to decide to give up on tangling with these two men for the time being.
He lowered his head and swooped straight down to where Bell, Groom, and Elio were.
It was enough to shock people's hearts, and the power of the dragon immediately pressed on the three of them. Bell couldn't help but take a few steps backwards and sit on the ground; Although Grum did not retreat, the arm holding the tomahawk trembled faintly.
The best performer was Elio - the pact he made with the green dragon gave him the talent to resist the dragon's might. The young knight raised his sword with a secret technique attached to it, stood firmly on his feet one after the other, stared at the huge creature that rushed in front of him, and then swung his arm vigorously.
Unfortunately, that didn't make much sense. The sword slashed a spark at the skeleton that was stronger than the golden stone, and the powerful impact nearly knocked Elio out entirely.
He hurriedly crouched down and barely let the sword out of his hand, but his crisis was not over. The black dragon crashed to the ground, its tail more than ten meters long and full of sharp bone spurs, whistling across the young knight's chest.
Elio hurriedly raised his sword to parry, but the dragontail bent the long sword with great force, and hit him directly in the breastplate, throwing him more than a dozen meters away, and falling heavily on his back to the ground.
"Hmm...... Ann, I'm sorry, I'm ......" The young knight tried to spit out a few words, but the next moment, his voice turned to confusion, "I...... Eh, still alive? He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, jumped up from the ground, grasped the weapon that had lost its effect, and continued to stare at the black dragon not far away.
This is still the effect of the contract with the pyrite. The blow was enough to seriously injure ordinary people, but for Elio, it only caused a little flesh damage.
"You can't defeat me, evil dragon!" The young knight waved the scrap iron in his hand and shouted, "I will see you fall with my own eyes!" Justice will triumph! ”
Courage is not bad, and Lily glances at Elio, taking it as a merit for the other party.
It's a pity that the verbal provocation is worthless to the dragon lich. The black dragon flapped its wings again and pounced on the two Belons on the other side along the air. It was then that Ariel finally opened her eyes.
As Bell and Grum struggled to deal with the black dragon's attack, her whole being—literally—turned into purple lightning and reached the back of the skeleton in an instant. Then, she raised the greatsword in her hand, covered in soft white light, and slashed down with all her might from top to bottom.
The greatsword infused with "Holy Light" sank into the dragon's body like butter, detaching the spur-covered tail from his torso. The next moment, a holy white flame ignited from the skeleton, reducing it to ashes.
The dragon lich jerked his head away. He may not know anger or fear, but he can tell that the Celestial Clan in front of him can pose a real threat to him.
Green flames faded from the skeleton's eye sockets, replaced by a blood-like glow. Ariel was about to launch her next attack, but her body suddenly froze in place, and the greatsword slipped limply from her hand to the ground.
The black dragon raised its right claw, and a dark aura flashed on the foot-long claw, and then swung down mercilessly.
Jill appeared at Ariel's side just in time, leading her to avoid the black dragon's claws, and took the other party's greatsword with him, "The dragon is in your hands, Lily- just don't let it follow." ”
"It's simple—" the mercenary pursed her lips and grumbled with a slight dissatisfaction, "did you tell us what to do?" ”
Complaining is complaining, the two are still working together, and Lily doesn't intend to let the other party look down on her. She whizzed down with the storm, and in the gap between the dragon's attempts to turn and chase Jill, she transformed into the creature that first flashed through her mind and smashed it down on the other's back.
- It was a huge soft-bodied creature.
Eight thick, sturdy tentacles danced rapidly, wrapping around the skeleton's body, claws, and neck in an instant. The black dragon tried to fight back, but its claws and spitting could hardly reach the huge octopus behind it, and the spell was suppressed by its tentacles.
Originally, the only thing that had a chance to inflict heavy damage on Lily was the terrible tail - alas, it was no longer on the dragon lich.
It's a gesture she's used once. In the midst of the lock, she used her current body to throw the entire fire demon into the trap they had prepared. And now, it was Dikdura's turn to be its 'prey,' Lily thought to herself.
A glimmer of light opened from beside her. Ariel clenched her weapon and walked out of the door with the dark-haired woman, looking at her current posture with a slight curiosity.
"That's what it is...... The power of the Lord of Heaven. Her gaze carried a hint of admiration, "Sure enough...... Like Lord Protodis, they're all very powerful. ”
"Right? I think it's pretty beautiful. Gil praised her appropriately, not knowing whether it was the means she had chosen or the way she was now, "I heard that the Fritz people use octopus as a delicacy, but it's a pity...... Eighty percent of them can't bite you like this. ”
"Hurry up, you two!" Lily whispered, "How long are you going to keep us like this?" ”
Ariel nodded, retracting her smile. She walked quickly to the underside of the octopus' crushed skeleton, raised her greatsword, and pointed it at the black dragon's writhing neck.
"Mistress Protodis...... and in the name of Lord Stark. She whispered, "Rest in peace." ”
