Although they display beastly instincts when hunting, their roars do not sound like beasts. If you listen closer, you're more human...... Or dwarves.

The dark palatins that run fast in Grimbaatar have physical characteristics that resemble beasts more than humans. They jump over uneven ground, showing agility that is not commensurate with their size. Some other black palatins crawl on the rocks, even hanging upside down at the lower end of the rocks in search of their prey.

They sniffed greedily at the ground, the air, and the qiē that surrounded them. They know from their mistresses and hunters where their prey has just stayed, but there may be other invaders nearby, such as the Copperbeard Dwarves. If possible, the dark palatins have a special interest in capturing their distant cousins.

After all, the Copperbeard Dwarves are a great delicacy for them.

Whether on their feet or limbs, on flat ground or on a cliff, these beasts can quickly catch up with their prey. Not far away, a small group of dragonman egg protectors has been patrolling. They are not good hunters, they are merely leaders. They are subordinate to the servants of the Dark Lady, the dragonman, the Lasker.

Lasker looked larger than his kind, and at the same time more vicious and vicious. In addition, he is one of the most intelligent dragonmen, even more cunning than a blood elf or a dwarf. He knew something about his mistress that even Zendari didn't know, so he always carried out her orders with obedience...... and worship.

With the same desire to kill as the Black Palate, he ordered the dragonmen guards to hunt for their prey. His mistress had told him what he might encounter, and though the duty was daunting, Lasker only hoped to give the invasion a head-on blow.

"Get moving...... he directly crushed a black palate monster next to him, the whipping sound was full of impatient rage, "find them......"

The black-palate ran in panic, and now they were close, very close.

Lasker returned to his nearest draconian guard, "This breath ......"

The Dragonman Guard grinned with fierce teeth, and he took the Chief's torch and swung it three times behind him.

A glimmer of light briefly appeared and then vanished again. Lasker nodded. "Very good......" he whipped hard at one of the dark-palate monsters beside him, "We've found them......

"There's no reason to disguise anymore," Crassus said sternly, "and the guys we're looking for are actively looking for our ......."

"Do you have to tell the truth?" There's still a hint of hostility in Karegos's tone.

Crassus ignored him. Instead, he opened his arms. The man in the turban began to change - with a moan, he doubled in size, but still looked like a strange elf, without showing a trace of what he really was.

When Elidi jumped over to help Crassus, Karegos began his transformation. Unlike Crassus. His transformation was not hindered in any way.

"Keep that old guy safe!" The blue dragon commanded, and he flew into the blue sky.

Delaney knew it would be a mistake to let Karek - or now Karegos - go, but once again, Crassus needed her help. She leaned over to look at Crassus, who had fallen to the ground, trying to figure out what she could do. "This qiē...... It's all planned. He gasped and said, "This weakness of my body......! I've been planning since long before I came here" "What do you mean?" The priestess put her hand on him as she asked this, hoping to find the source of his pain.

To her surprise, he suddenly laughed out loud, "Who-who else did they expect to come and find out the truth?" Blue Dragon...... Yes...... Because they're custodians of magic! but—but that's why they didn't anticipate me. ”

Elidy couldn't understand what he was saying, and couldn't imagine his pain. When she thinks. Something was felt in his upper abdomen, but it was very faint, as if it was very small or very well camouflaged.

"Don't worry about me! Don't let - don't let Karek go to them! I still have a way to sabotage their plans! I just need some time!" She looked up at the sky, it was too late to summon the blue dragon back. Elidi sued Sù Crassus about this.

"Young fool...... "The Red Dragon Mage gasped, as if things had improved, "I'm just surprised, if only he could wait for us a while......"

As he spoke, Crassus raised one of his gloved hands. In that hand, Elidi saw a tiny golden shard. It's beautiful to look at, but it's also terrifying in a sense.

"Of all the places," Crassus continued, "Grimbaatar is the only place where I imagine I'll use it, and there's no doubt that it's intimately connected to the evil of this mountain of fear. He straightened up. "I'm sorry that Karek may suffer again that he didn't deserve. ”

His bones trembled. He rolled his eyes a few times and then closed. Elidy began to think he was having some spasms, but it was only then that Delaney realized that he was using dangerous force to cast a strong ** spell.

"There used to be dragons here besides orcs," the emaciated spellcaster murmured, "and there was once darkness in the darkness among the dragons, and now I call upon those unbearable memories to strengthen this spell." ”

However, no matter what Crassus did, it didn't work at all. Instead, the golden shard suddenly turned a dull black.

Crassus let out a low cry of pain, letting the splinter fall out despite his best efforts. When it fell to the ground, the fragment regained its original vivid brilliance.

The priestess immediately tried to pick it up, but her companion shouted, "Don't!"

Her fingers hadn't even touched the shard, but a terrifying image popped into Draenei's mind. She saw the shadows of dragons—hundreds and thousands—surrounding her like ghosts. No...... Not a ghost...... It's memory......

At that moment, the images vanished, and she returned to Crassus once more...... It's just that they didn't stay alone for long. From behind all the rocks and buildings emerge savage creatures that look like dwarves but have femme scorpion-like scales and aggressive limbs. They approached here, clearing the way ahead with the spears or whips they carried.

Crassus made a gesture towards the person closest to them.

On the man's forehead, a strange rune that shone with light emerged.

"No one understands this rune here!" The Red Dragon Mage suddenly said, "No one, except-" He didn't continue, as a whip crept around his wrist. The terrifying dwarf creature swung his weapon with force, but Crassus stood there with ease. "Even with this stuff entangled, it's not so easy for me to hit the target," he booed the attacker. Relying on his unbelievably immense strength, he pulled his enemies over with one hand...... Bump into another enemy who pounces on him. At the same time, Elidi also kicked down an enemy who tried to attack her from the side, and in the process of his fall, struck another enemy in the neck with a palm.

A javelin flew over her head, nearly piercing her. When the enemy retrieved the javelin and tried to attack again, she grabbed the enemy's spear in the same way as Crassus. -for-tat, the priestess lifted her enemy above her head and threw her out.

However, the whip that flew like a wind swept away the javelin before Elidi could use it. Without fear, she summoned her staff, praying that the other half of the owners wouldn't try to summon it away at this point.

It seemed to her that Crassus was hindering her spell casting, but in reality he was only doing so because he cared too much about her. Crassus may be a dragon of extraordinary ability, but he can neither become his true self nor use his innate magic.

She began to wonder what she could do. If the creatures hit by the runes weren't affected by the spell, the staff would only be a physical weapon for her. Still, she pointed her staff at the next enemy who charged at her. She concentrated......

The small, scaly-skinned creature was frozen in stride, his terrible mouth wide open to bite her.

She was amazed at the success of her spell cast, and the Draenei barely noticed that another, more formidable enemy was approaching. The man seemed to be about her own size, close to being a human or an elf, but it appeared that their parents were of the Crassus or Carré races, despite their dark complexion.

"Him!" It hissed, "The mistress wants to catch him!

Elidi's staff was pointed at the dragonman.

A loud roar echoed through the sky.

She looked up and saw Karek, a strange gray aura surrounding him, and he fell vertically.

Crassus pulled her back, "Go, Delaney! I'll get rid of them—"

At this point, he stiffened. His already pale face became even paler. He struggled to get his feet.

"No mage killer has such power!" He snapped, "No—"

The same gray aura surrounded him. He groaned in pain. However, when he was faltering, he suddenly reached out and pushed the priestess.

"Go ahead. ”

Elidy and the world around her are gone. (To be continued.) )
