The Twelveth Movement of Twilight Volume 4 Furious Down

Hughes looked back, and it turned out that Gregory had quietly appeared behind him at some point, the huge dragon head almost sticking to Hughes's old face, and a pair of dragon's eyes densely covered with golden stripes and full of feet were staring at Xius intently.

Although the size of the Divine Dragon is not large among dragons, if the dragon horns are also included, the length of a dragon's head alone is already beyond the height of Xiuth. It was a terrifying thing to be stared at such a close distance by such a behemoth.
Xius stood up, took two steps to the side, and said, "It turns out to be the divine dragon in front of the goddess's throne, with your noble status as the highest in the dragon clan, is there anything to do with me, an old elf?"
Floating Gregory landed on the roof of the tower, a small space barely fit its massive body. But Gregory would rather throw a dragon's tail out of the tower than keep his tales on all fours, crouching in front of Theseus.
The Divine Dragon said respectfully, "I am the most faithful servant of the Goddess, you can call me Gregory." ā
Even the old fox Hughes was taken aback by Gregory's sudden respect. He immediately shook his hands wildly, quietly moved two steps to the side, and said, "Lord Gregory, you are a divine dragon who claims to fly only in the light of the gods, and I am just a lowly elf, and it is a blasphemy against your noble status to speak to me with such an attitude! You see that my knees are almost unable to bear the weight of my body. ā
Gregory still bowed respectfully to the ground and said, "Although I am indeed a divine dragon, I maybe, no, certainly the weakest divine dragon ever built. Dear Elder Theseus, with your wisdom, strength, and greatness, it is not difficult to see this. Moreover, in the presence of the most beautiful goddess, all living beings are equally humble. People revere and even fear me, either because of the magical power of the dragon language of the legendary divine dragon, or because of the radiance of the goddess, not at all because of my own true strength. It's okay for me to deceive others, but in front of you, all my pretense is completely useless. ā
Hughes smiled and said, "You're really an interesting divine dragon! If you come to me for something, you might as well go to someone else. I'm not even a sanctuary. ā
"Others?" the Divine Dragon's eyes showed a look of obvious disdain, "With you here, do I need to go to the others?" besides, at this moment on this floating castle, only you can guide me. Those three guys from the desolate and dead world have great power, but their knowledge is too shallow. This can't be blamed on them, thousands of years of dealing only with zombie skeletons, even the gods can become stupid. As for the other two, hey, do you still need me to say? Alas, it's a shame!"
Hughes was silent. From his vantage point, he could see a large terrace in the other corner of the floating city.
In the corner of the terrace, Androni leaned against the stone wall behind her, holding the blue sky in her arms, staring at the low blue moon. The corners of her mouth were overflowing with a smile, and she was distracted, not knowing what she was thinking, and she would laugh out loud from time to time. Her face radiated with happiness, and she was amazingly charming, and her appearance was even better than before.
On the other side of the castle, the Reaper was looking at the thin sword with an earthy yellow glow over and over again, laughing at every wrinkle.
From time to time he would get up, walk back and forth in the moonlight, rub his hands together, and say to himself excitedly, "Eleven days to go, ah, no, it's ten days! It's only ten days.......
Hughes withdrew his gaze and let out a long sigh.
Gregory continued: "What is the Sanctuary? The Sanctuary is only meaningful to those humble beings who know little about power! How can this crude measure be used to measure your unfathomable power? Moreover, power has boundaries, but wisdom has no limits. ā
Theseus snorted and said, "You can't think of this kind of opinion! It was your two masters who taught you, right?"
The Divine Dragon suddenly howled, "You see, you even know about such things! I said a long time ago that you could never be just an ordinary elf. Gregory, the Wisdom of Wisdom, still has this bit of eyesight! Just by looking at how Master Weina can't catch you, you can know! I think back then, when Master Fengyue was still a skeleton, she saw me from the vast world of death at a glance, ah no, I took the initiative to stand in front of her......"
Taken aback, Theseus slammed his fist into Gregory's head, knocking back the howls behind it.
Gregory also came to his senses, and knew that he had not only violated his master's taboo, but also howled it out loudly! For a while, it trembled with fright, its four claws became soft, and it stretched out its front and back, and the dragon's belly landed on the ground, and it suddenly became a veritable five-body throw.
The dragon and the elf pricked up their ears as much as they could, vigilantly searching for movement in all directions, preparing to slip away as soon as there was a strange sound. They waited for a long time, and saw that there was no movement in the castle below, and then they were shocked.
Androni and the Reaper class were still immersed in their own world, listening to the howls of the divine dragon, just an ordinary human sentinel, now more alert than they were.
Theseus glanced at Gregory hatefully, then shook his head and sighed, "Gregory, you are a very clever divine dragon, but your master...... Alas!"
Gregory propped up his front paws, tilted his head and thought for a long time, and sighed.
Xius snorted and said, "What are you pretending to sigh here, how can you understand these things?"
"Because you don't understand, you have to learn!" Gregory replied resolutely, which surprised Theseus again.
Theseus turned around, waved his hand, and said, "I'm just an elf killer who is about to reach the end of his life, how can I teach a divine dragon?
"Okay, okay. Reluctantly, Gregory turned his head away, struggling to turn around on the small terrace, muttering, "It seems that you are not willing to give me some pointers." I know it's not that you can't, you just don't want to. However, it seems that no one knows about the affairs of the master of the wind moon and the master of Wella, and the master of the wind and the moon does not want others to know about it, very, very reluctant! maybe, maybe I should remind her that someone has noticed that I have two masters. After all, without the master, there would be no Gregory of my loyalty, even if the master of Fengyue is furious and dismantles me back into a bone dragon, my loyal heart is still the same ...... forever"
"Stop!" Theseus stopped Gregory, who was about to fly, and said with a smile: "You divine dragon, what you are doing now has nothing to do with the sacred!"
"How come?" said Gregory as he inhaled his strength and squeezed out a large amount of divine light from his body, "Look, Divine Gregory, that's my name too. ā
Xiusi was very angry, and said, "What do you want to do with me, just say it!"
Gregory was overjoyed, and the dragon head leaned forward to show affection, but the dragon horn on the left almost stabbed Xiuth. It chanted softly in dragon magic, and in a few moments, a text written in dragon language appeared in the air.
Xius glanced at the text, then frowned, "Ultimate Transfiguration? I've never heard of a divine dragon wanting to learn this. Isn't it easy to cast a few dragon language transfiguration techniques at random with your natural abilities? You don't need to practice this useless ultimate transfiguration technique, do you? What do you want to become? What other creature can compare to the Divine Dragon? Not to mention the Divine Dragon's spell-casting and quasi-casting abilities are the best in the dragon race, how can you not understand such a thing as the Ultimate Transfiguration Technique? Hmph, you also want to hide it from my old man?"
Gregory said, "Great Elder Theseus, even if you do not consider your strength second only to that of the Goddess, your wisdom alone is enough to crush all enemies! In time, of course, I can master the ultimate transfiguration, but ......"
The divine dragon subconsciously stretched its neck and glanced at the hall where Fengyue lived, and a blazing flame jumped in the huge dragon's eyes: "...... I can't wait! What does it feel like when you're so close to the things you love the most and you can't reach them? It's pain! It's so painful!"
"Oh......" Theseus realized. He grinned, and leaned closer to the Gregorian giant, staring into its sacred, loyal, noble eyes.
Of course, given the huge difference in size between the two sides, Hughes could only stare at one eye of Gregory. But even so, the old fox's fierce gaze almost pierced its entire soul.
"You want to learn the ultimate transfiguration, what skills do you plan to master through it?" Theseus finally withdrew the uncomfortable gaze that made Gregory uncomfortable.
"Hide, stealth, disguise and listen. Gregory replied without hesitation, apparently a long time in the making.
"These are very common thief and killer skills!Why don't you use dragon magic instead, as far as I know, advanced stealth in dragon magic is still very useful. And you can float, so you don't have to sneak!"
"Under God's eyes, all magical energy is hidden. And as long as these most basic abilities can be exerted to the extreme, they will have effects that cannot be replaced by dragon magic. It's entirely possible that they've hidden God's eyes!" said Gregory, earnestly.
"That's because you don't know much about dragon magic! Forget it, but what you said makes sense, when these basic abilities are combined, even gods will have a headache. Well, what do you want to spy on, is it a god? Which god is it, is it this god around us?"
Gregory immediately said, "I simply want to learn art from you, the art of walking in the dark, unnoticed." ā
Theseus smiled, "Very good! There are three creatures to choose from in the Ultimate Transfiguration, how are you going to choose?"
Gregory had at least thought deeply about his first choice, and immediately said, "Gnome!"
Xius's eyes lit up and he said, "Gnomes are indeed the best race to match these skills. It seems that you have some talent, okay, I'll explain to you the use of the ultimate transfiguration. Well, your power is too low at the moment, but I can change the terminal transfiguration technique a little bit, and if you only choose one creature initially, you can still master this skill. However, when you finish your studies, you have to do something for me. ā
Gregory immediately agreed, although it probably couldn't do most of the things that Xius couldn't do, but in order to learn the ultimate transfiguration, it had already given up, and it was willing to do no matter how hard and difficult it was. I really can't do it, just rely on it.
In the corner of the glittering floating city, an elf and a sacred dragon are secretly studying the dark arts.
"Gregory!" After teaching the Divine Dragon's Ultimate Transfiguration Technique, Xius coughed and said earnestly, "These are the most basic skills for walking in the dark, but they are also the most useful skills. After you have practiced, do you just want to be a bystander and watch the development of the situation?"
Gregory pondered for a moment and said, "I'm already satisfied. ā
Indeed, until he has mastered these arts, Gregory will be a spectator of history, or an occasional observer, even if only a few words will make him happy for days. But listening to what Hughes said, is it possible to go further?
The Divine Dragon's heart itched again, an unquenchable itch.
"I also have to ask Lord Hughes, who is noble, wise, elegant, and has a unique taste in the world, for more guidance. Gregory said respectfully.
"It's impossible for a weak existence like us to compete with those powerful guys, so we can only choose to hide in the dark. But no matter how powerful the existence is, even the gods, the balance between them is very delicate. Sometimes, it only takes a small external force, heard clearly, and a little bit can upset this balance and make things go in the direction we want. The power to upset the balance doesn't need to be strong, even for those of us who only dare to hide in the dark. Think about it, what a sense of accomplishment it must be when those powerful beings change the course of their fate because of your covert intervention! Of course, there are huge risks involved, depending on how you choose. ā
Every golden streak in Gregory's eyes glowed, and of course it knew its choice.
In the night, a huge figure swept across the sky. The Divine Dragon was anxious to find a quieter place to practice his newfound ultimate Transfiguration. As it searched for a suitable place, it felt something strange. It had been conspiring with Hughes for a long time, and on several occasions it had gotten carried away, but why was it that its master's keen sense was unaware of such imminent disrespect?
There are many, many more people who don't sleep this night.
Rogge stood quietly in front of the window with his hands in his hands, looking at the blue moon in the night sky, and couldn't help but think about the fighting skills of the Black Warrior Emperor and the Bone Emperor. The more Rogge remembered their every move, the tighter his brow furrowed. He focused almost all of his attention on these two kings. The most terrifying thing about the Bone Emperor is his powerful attack power and instantaneous speed, he doesn't have many combat skills, and he doesn't need these skills. The Black Warrior Emperor, on the other hand, is somewhat similar to the Paladins or Ranger of this world in some ways, with a balanced combat power and nothing particularly prominent, but a variety of support skills allow him to adapt to combat in any environment. As for Elgra, Rogge didn't think much of it.
This is not to say that Elgra is inferior to these two kings, but most of the lich's magical knowledge is already in Rog's memory. Of course, knowing is knowing, it is almost impossible to defeat this lich who has lived for thousands of years by magic. For thousands of years, the Lich had been afraid to increase its magic for fear of the Celestial Hunt, but it had spent all its time improving its magic control and researching new magical applications, which was worth the amount of magic it mastered.
Rogge pondered what the battle would have been if he had stood in front of these three kings. He knew that every king was much more powerful than he was, but sheer power was not everything.
The fat man smiled coldly.
Just as the first law of kings binds everything in the world of death, there are also rules that bind the strong in this world. Fat people are familiar with these rules. No matter how powerful the power of kings is, they can only rely on and use the power of death. And even Rodriguez back then was hesitant to use the power of death, and he didn't dare to be too public. However, it is impossible for kings who have lived in the dead world for countless years to know this.
The fat man couldn't help but regret that he was so excited that he opened his mouth to challenge the kings. Since I have said that there is a war between kings, what dignity and morality do we need to care? After all, war is not a decisive battle, so why should we expose our intentions too early and make them feel on guard?
But on second thought, this is not necessarily a bad thing. There are always opportunities, it just depends on whether he can take advantage of them. The three kings were powerful, and they might be able to adapt and grow quickly, but they would never be familiar with some of the important rules of the world, such as people's attitudes toward the necromancy. The power of the king is indeed strong, and it must be put to good use...... In the blink of an eye, Rogge had several plans hatched.
Rogge suddenly remembered that the divine servant Serafi was inexplicably only fourteenth-level Dou Qi, and when she was teaching herself, the flying fist even disdained to attach a fourteenth-level Dou Qi. Ten levels of fighting spirit! Just at level 10, Serafi had already beaten the fat man to the point where he couldn't find the north. Every time that shiny and delicate boot stepped on Rogge's belly, it exerted the tenth-level fighting qi to the fullest, refusing to waste even the faintest trace of it, and sent it all into Rogge's body, each of which was like an eye, poking away the mass of magic that Rogge was trying to condense, and even had the spare strength to torture his nerves.
Rogge thought back to those few stampedes repeatedly, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the aftertaste was endless and unfinished. If Serafi was there, I was afraid that Rogge would want to ask her to step on a few more feet.
He suddenly sighed, only feeling that the world was so vast and boundless, but it was a pity that time was fair to everyone, and he would never be given a penny more to explore and experience.
Rogge stretched out his hand in front of him, and the blue moonlight fell silently on his outstretched palm, and suddenly the brilliance that flowed like mercury was like a bay of lake water, and it slowly accumulated in the palm of his hand, like a substantial liquid, and overflowed from the edge of his palm at a certain height. As soon as the moonlight left the range of his hand, it turned into light again, projecting onto the ground.
In the moonlight, the shadow of that hand had vanished.
Rogge smiled slightly, slightly bitter. If he had focused on the improvement of his strength, then, Fengyue, why would you be like this...... But there is no shortcut to strength, even if he pays more attention to personal strength, the result will still be the same.
Rogge knew in his heart that he looked up at the blue moon and could only smile bitterly.
The stars twinkled in the velvety deep blue sky, the full moon was reaching mid-heaven, the floating city hung silently in the west, and the magical light of the seven colors shone brighter than the day in the deep night scene, even robbing the blue moon of the night sky. However, in the ever-changing magical radiance, there was occasionally a strong aura of death, adding a touch of weirdness to this dream-beautiful castle.
On the floating city, behind the closed colored windows of the central hall, those silver eyes were looking at the blue moon in the sky through many obstacles...... The moon sets, the moon rises.
On Rogge's military map, the position of the Scarlet Twin Flags kept moving forward.
After Faerun, there is the unique town of Lubec, after Lubec, the majestic military fortress Wanda, when Wanda is dyed dark red, the fluttering blood-colored double flag, finally reached the capital of the Delaware Empire, Tiffany.
