Chapter 338: Dragon's Twilight
The snow forest behind him was in shambles, and large areas of trees had collapsed and broken, and in this icy and snowy land, they had already been all frozen.
The broken wood covered in snow and ice is like a strange-shaped sculpture.
Ahead, on the other hand, is a vast flat ice field, seemingly white and boundless.
Hussein stood at the edge of the woods, his cold eyes staring intently into the distance of the ice field. Behind him, Rodriguez sat cross-legged in the snow, grabbed a handful of snow in one hand and stuffed it into his mouth, then took a bite of the frozen dry food.
After a while, Rodriguez suddenly smiled and said, "Count the rìzi, now should be the first day of the new year, if it is in dìdū or in our Loulan City, I don't know how lively it will be." According to the tradition in our Duke's Palace, Chief Mad's must have ordered the kitchen to be made a lot...... Well, what's the name of that thing, the food thing that the Duke invented?"
Hussein didn't look back, but replied briefly with two words: "Dumplings." ”
"Ah, yes, it's dumplings. Speaking of which, that thing tastes really good.
Alas, now that the two of us are here drinking snow water and nibbling on dry food, I can't help but miss the smell of that thing. “
Hussein turned around at this time, glanced at Rodriguez, and frowned: "I don't know what's going on, in the past two days, I can't see a single demonic beast around." ”
Rodriguez also nodded: "Yes, we have been eating dry food for two days. But he couldn't even hit a single prey. ”
Hussein sat down next to Rodriguez and grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into his mouth. But he looked at the ice field in the distance: "Wait another day, if there are still no clues...... I want to go north and see. ”
Rodriguez frowned: "North, you mean, the place where dragons live in the northern part of this ice field?"
Previously, Rodriguez was entrusted by Du Wei to find Hussein halfway, and the two went north together, entered the frozen forest, and then went all the way north. Find out the news. But after the two entered the forest, they crossed the Great Round Lake, but the forest was unexpectedly quiet. Although the two of them found a lot of footprints touched by large-scale demonic beasts, but since that demonic beast torrent raged. The beasts retreated into the forest, but they seemed to be scattered and hiding. In a huge forest. I didn't hear the sound of the beast, and I didn't see the trace of the beast.
Along. Hussein also knew what Du Wei meant. Just about the north of this frozen forest, after the forgotten ice fields. There was also a sacred mountain, which was where the dragons lived, and the mission of the dragons, and so on, all of which were told to Rodriguez. Rodriguez was certainly amazed to hear it...... However, the two of them came to the edge of the forest. Still nothing. At the northern end of this forest. I've been sitting for two years. But there was no clue. Hussein was still in motion. I had the idea of continuing to go north to the Dragon Clan's territory to find out the news.
"But, you said it. On this ice field, there is an ancient huge earth magic array. Can you pass through this magic circle?"
Hussein thought for a moment: "The last time we came back, we had already seen through the weakness of this magic array, that is, it became stronger when it was stronger. The more you resist, the more powerful the magic position will be, as long as I carefully restrain my breath, and encounter a small storm, I don't have to fight to resist, and I don't think it will trigger a large-scale attack...... There should be no problem. ”
Although he said this, he must still be a little puzzled in his heart.
Rodriguez thought for a moment and said, "Since you've decided, let's go together." ”
Hussein shook his head: "If you continue to go north, the danger will be much greater." It's nowhere near like this frozen forest. In this forest, with the strength of you and me, we are not afraid to encounter demonic beasts. But to the north, it is the territory of the dragon clan, and the leader of the dragon clan has a great enmity with me, and if we encounter it, it will end in a battle to the death. I asked myself if I was no match for him. It's extremely dangerous to go. Even if you are added, it will be the same. Du Wei can't be without help by his side, I'll just go alone. You'd better stay, just in case...... In case I can't come back, you can continue to help Du Wei. ”
Rodriguez was about to say something, but suddenly his heart moved, he felt something unusual in the distance, looked up to the north, and blurted out: "Look!"
The two of them looked north together, and in the distance, on the originally calm ice field, a storm roared from far and near!
Beneath the storm, far above the horizon, there seemed to be an extremely faint figure, swaying in the midst of the storm, trying to move forward...... Rodriguez and Hussein glanced at each other, then jumped up and out of the forest, heading towards the figure north of the icefield...... In the distance, on the horizon, the outline of that forest is already faintly in sight!
How far is it? 3,000 meters, 4,000 meters?
If it's in Pingrì, such a distance, you just need to fly, and you can get there with two take-offs and landings. It's a pity that now...... The wound in his chest tugged, and there was another sharp pain. And the glow of magic dimmed again...... The damn wind, the terrible wind, was like a myriad of knife winds, densely rolled down...... The blood in his chest began to flow again...... This time it flowed even harder. It's a pity that this wound has already begun to heal, but along the way, I kept urging magic to fight against this storm, but my body couldn't get the slightest cultivation at all, and after the wound healed, it burst out again, burst and heal, and healed and burst again!
At this moment, I took a deep breath, only to find that my magic power had reached the point of exhaustion
It's a dry place! I can't extract the slightest bit of magic anymore!
Seeing that the light of this magical enchantment had weakened, the area enveloped by the enchantment became smaller and smaller under the suppression of this storm...... Getting lower and lower...... I began to feel a little dizzy in front of my eyes, and the outline of the woods seemed to be out of reach...... The dragon prince ** hugged the things in his arms...... Die or die...... But even if you can't get out of this ice field alive. At least I can send the contents of my arms to the woods...... Otherwise, the local dialect. Our people...... Finally. He went limp. I can't move under my feet anymore. He fell to his knees with a thud. At this point, the magic is exhausted. In a near-death throe, his eyes. There was a trace of blood in his mouth and nose! This terrifying appearance was really terrifying. One hand ** supports the ground. He also tried to get up...... But. Where is the strength of the body?
Thump...... Thump...... This is not the sound of my own heartbeat, but the two pieces that I hold in my arms...... This strange rhythmic beating sound seemed to inspire the last trace of his potential. He yelled abruptly. In the dragon's roar, there is endless unwillingness and pathos!
The body stood up stubbornly again, and the enchantment seemed to be whistling out. It flickered again and suddenly lit up.
Pity. It's like a return to the past.
After a violent flicker. The light suddenly disappeared! The wind knife swept down in a frenzy!
He finally despaired. I tried my best to get the last of my strength. He slammed into the ground. put two things in his arms and pressed them under him. with their own back. Resist the wind knives sweeping down from the sky!
Sneer...... Countless cutting sounds rang out...... How...... I don't feel any pain at all...... Don't. I've died?
The last shred of consciousness is about to dissipate. Suddenly, he saw what he saw. It was as if two figures had appeared. The figure of a man!
The sky was full of silver and light, and the sky swept down, and the ground storm was instantly defeated.
Then, he finally closed his eyes...... When I wake up again. He found himself lying in the woods, surrounded by woods. As if after a catastrophe. Shattered to pieces. The broken trees are a testament to the terrible catastrophe that has been experienced here.
The next reaction. He immediately reached out and touched his arms. Fortunately...... Two things are still there!
He finally breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately became conscious.
A voice came from beside him: "Are you awake?"
He struggled to keep his eyes open. Only then did he gradually see that a human was standing in front of him.
Look at yourself condescendingly.
"I know you. You are the Grand Prince of the Dragonland. Right?"
Just when his heart was shocked, this person said the next word. Reassured him.
"I'm not your enemy, I'm Duke Tulip. My name is Hussein. ”
Du Wei ...... Du Wei ............ Well, it's the human who played the piano and made friends with him.
The Dragon Prince was finally relieved.
I don't know how long I've been asleep. But the slight movement of his body, the sharp pain of the wound, made him almost faint again.
The hoarse voice reluctantly said, "Please, please help me up." ”
Behind him, a pair of powerful arms set himself up. The dragon prince turned his head to see a handsome middle-aged man smiling gently at himself: "My name is Rodriguez." ”
"Respect the Earth Dragon Prince. Hussein stood in front of him: "We have been entrusted by Du Wei to come here to inquire about the news. Look at you, could it be that something bad has happened to the dragon clan?"
The dragon prince was silent for a while, his eyes, the pupils flashed a trace of disgrace, and finally, after a long time, he smiled miserably: "Dragon Clan...... There are no dragons in this world??!!!"
Ignoring Hussein and Rodriguez looking at each other, the Dragon Prince took a deep breath, and although the pain in his chest made his body tremble, he gritted his teeth and whispered, "I...... I'm no longer good, but I'm lucky to have met you before I die."
As he spoke, he gasped, but his wheezing voice was like a dilapidated bellows.
"I'm sorry. Rodriguez sighed, and the paladin looked helplessly at the dragon prince on the ground: "I checked your ground injury...... You are so badly injured that there is nothing we can do about it, I can see that there is a powerful force in your body, which has destroyed half of your lungs, and that power is still in your body, if you hadn't suppressed it yourself, I'm afraid you would have died long ago. It's a pity that you're not human, you're a dragon, so the healing magic of humans has no effect on you. And ......"
Hussein also sighed: "Moreover, there was originally a spring water that could heal your injuries. Pity...... After the earthquake, the spring had dried up. ”
The Dragon Prince smiled laboriously, "It doesn't matter, I'...... I can only hold out a little longer, so please tell Duke Tulip what I'm going to say next. Because...... In my opinion, he is the only human being who can prevent this catastrophe......"
His hands had been clutched to the ground, as if in great pain, and then he began to speak...... "The dragons have been attacked by the sinners of the north. This time, they came fiercely, in large numbers, and boundless...... And in order to preserve the power of the dragons, our great patriarch, my esteemed father, who accepted the request of the leader of the sinners, a fellow named 'Jīng Spirit King Luoxue', to have a duel with it. If my father wins, then King Jīng promises to let their army retreat. And if my father loses, then the dragons must surrender!"
When Hussein heard this, his heart jumped violently: "Is it ......?"
Looking at the appearance of this dragon prince at such a doom, could it be that the patriarch of the dragon clan ...... That powerful, almost perverted old dragon king, will also lose?
At the beginning, with himself plus Gandalf and Medusa, the guy who couldn't be defeated by the three strong people combined, would he actually lose?
The dragon prince nodded, and his action immediately made Hussein's heart sink to the bottom!
"Father, the decisive battle with that jīng spirit went through three days and three nights, and finally ......"
