Chapter 1328: Desperate Situation in the Hall
"What are those?"
Noticing a group of giant shadows preparing to make a move deep in the hall, Broy immediately opened his eyes wide, not daring to be careless. Even though there was magma everywhere, it could not illuminate the surrounding environment at all.
Cornette and other powerful dwarf elves also had the same expression. They all focused their minds and controlled the sixth-level alchemical puppets deployed in front of the team to be ready for battle.
Without having to dispel the fog, Lei Xiao arranged these fifth-level dwarf elves in the relatively safe middle and rear of the team, and they only needed to control their respective alchemical puppets.
At the same time, Bing Lao and Yonier, who were also deployed in the front row of the team, waved their staffs, and dozens of magic light balls drew a shining trajectory and flew straight towards the group of unknown giant shadows.
However, before the magic ball of light got close, strange purple rays of light suddenly lit up from the depths of the hall, contrasting with the slowly surging magma, making people feel their scalps tingle.
What exactly those purple rays represent is of course very familiar to all of us. It is another group of parasitic dragons!
What made our group even more awe-inspiring was that, as the magic light balls moved forward, judging from the number and the majestic momentum sweeping over them, the overall strength of these dragons would definitely not be inferior to the previous batch, and might even be stronger.
For a moment, an extremely tense atmosphere once again spread among our team.
Just now, without dividing our forces to tie down the enemy, we were able to fight evenly with our previous opponent. Thanks to Lei Xiao's command and everyone's efforts, we were able to force the opponent into a desperate situation.
But now, our strength on paper has been reduced by more than half, and facing an enemy of such a scale, the result can be imagined.
What's more, these terrifying big guys are terrifying beings that can be resurrected again with the help of purple crystals.
Even if Hong Ye can divert the magical veins, he has to go to the coronation place where the culprit is. It cannot be done here.
"I didn't expect there were so many. Where did that guy find such a huge dragon clan?"
In surprise, Serin and her fellow tribesmen looked at each other with disbelief on their faces, and Hong Ye beside them had the same expression.
You know, after the establishment of the Dragon Elders' Council, the wars between the major dragon clans had long ceased to exist. Under such circumstances, more than two hundred dragons actually became puppets of that guy. This is simply unbelievable.
After all, even if they could hide it from the Dragon Elders' Council, they would never be able to hide it from the major dragon clans. Once they learned that the subjects of their clan had disappeared inexplicably, the major dragon kings would never sit idly by.
Unless... similar evil deeds happened to other dragons as the culprit did back then. Even if the throne of Dragon King was not taken away from them, they were in a state of being unable to take care of themselves, so they did not care about the disappearance or death of their fellow dragons.
Thinking of this in their hearts, whether it was Hong Ye or Serin and other dragons, they all felt a chill in their hearts, with cold sweat on their foreheads.
As the overlords of the sky, although the dragon clan is not as strong as the elves and other top forces individually, under the leadership of the Dragon Clan Elders Council, it is enough to make all the other top forces extremely wary and prevent them from making any excessive moves.
Not only that, but the dragon race is arrogant and will never bow to other forces even if they fall. This is also well known, otherwise dragon knights would not be so rare.
Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly unimaginable that there is some force that can manipulate the Dragon Clan and even the Dragon Clan Elders Council to such an extent.
However, facing the approaching opponent, Hong Ye and other dragons felt a chill in their hearts and had to give up thinking and turn their attention back to reality.
Faced with the huge monsters slowly approaching from the depths of the hall, not only the dragons like Hong Ye, but even the dwarfs like Broy felt their hands and feet suddenly feel cold, and their hearts filled with chills.
Although it is not known how the culprit used the mysterious purple crystal to parasitize these dragons, it is certain that there are more than 200 dragons of various attributes in total. This is undoubtedly an extremely terrifying number, even exceeding the enemies who almost destroyed the Dwarf Elf Kingdom back then.
The dwarfs were sweating profusely when they thought that there were so many terrible enemies hidden inside Wumeng Peak.
But on second thought, the reason why the culprit didn't destroy them completely back then was probably to cover up his tracks and secretly cultivate these parasitic dragons here.
After all, although most of the forces in the outside world are independent of each other, they are still extremely sensitive to various information, especially news about war.
Ordinary wins and losses are easier to deal with, and this is a very common occurrence in the outside world. However, once it is known that a certain force has been completely destroyed, elite warriors will be sent to investigate in order to assess the threat level of the winner.
From this, it is not difficult to see that all this was indeed a long-planned thing. Every move of the other party must have been carefully designed, which is why they were able to reach this point smoothly.
In other words, both the culprit and the mastermind behind him had been planning this for a long time.
It is even possible that this is a huge plan that they cannot even imagine, and what we have seen is just the tip of the iceberg.
"Anyway, these parasitic creatures are just like golem puppets and have no intelligence. There's nothing to be afraid of no matter how many there are!"
This time, Serin adjusted her mood quickly and spoke in a stern voice.
After hearing Serin's words, the extremely tense atmosphere on our side had just eased a little, and the culprit's teasing voice sounded again.
"Oh? You guys don't think that the opponent you are facing this time is exactly the same as before? You are really a bunch of extremely stupid guys. I believe you will be extremely surprised this time, especially the few idiots from Xuanran family and Hongye."
After saying that, the culprit burst into laughter again. That unbridled laughter sounded as if he was preparing to watch a good show.
"Don't think you can scare us like this..."
Serin's voice stopped abruptly when she was halfway through her words.
Not only her, but all our powerful dragon warriors, including Hong Ye, opened their eyes wide and stared at the parasitic dragon opponents whose figures were becoming clearer and clearer.
Along with the heavy footsteps of approaching huge figures, the figures of the parasitic dragons in the front became completely clear.
Deep in the lava-filled hall, the light of the magic light ball shone, reflecting the huge dragon bodies with red scales and purple crystals. The huge expressionless dragon faces with empty white pupils were a group of red dragons staggering over.
Looking at the huge body that was flashing with strange purple light, the bodies of Hong Ye, Serin and other dragons began to become increasingly stiff, and their eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Although the red dragons had dull expressions, Hong Ye, Serin and the others could still clearly tell that they were the tribesmen who died in that night of destruction.
"Uncle, cousin...you, you..."
Serin's shoulders were shaking constantly, her starry eyes fixed on the dragon shadows that she once knew so well. Fortunately, she had the support of several other members of the same clan, so she did not collapse on the ground.
However, although the other members of the same tribe seemed stronger, they all looked sad and pale.
For a moment, the night of destruction hundreds of years ago seemed to reappear in their minds.
The raging flames, the wailing of the tribesmen, the shattered dragon scales, the bitten dragon neck, the broken dragon claws... those scenes that they once tried desperately to forget are now constantly irritating their increasingly fragile nerves.
As for Hong Ye, although she didn't show everything like Serin, she also bit her red lips silently, and her slender body trembled slightly.
In the increasingly approaching enemy camp, she also saw many of her tribesmen who had died in the past. A considerable number of them even tried to cover her, the daughter of the tribe leader, and eventually died at the hands of the culprit and his minions.
Just when Hong Ye bit her lips until they bled and didn't know what to do, a warm big hand gently patted her slightly twitching shoulder. It was Lei Xiao who was standing beside her.
"Lord Lord..."
Feeling the warmth brought by Lei Xiao's palm, Hong Ye's tense mood finally couldn't hold on any longer, and his voice began to tremble more and more.
Beside her, Lei Xiao, who knew that he had never experienced other people's tears and could not understand other people's sorrow, did not say a word. He just nodded heavily at her and slightly increased the strength of his hand on her shoulder, telling her with his actions that she, who had avoided being hunted down for hundreds of years, was no longer alone.
"Haha, this is a very touching scene. It's a pity that you are going to repeat the mistakes of these useless dragons, and be killed by them!"
As the culprit's sinister voice fell, the dragons of the same species and other attributes that were slowly approaching roared wildly, then spread their wings and shot out, overwhelming our group, making the entire hall instantly boil with murderous aura.
Compared to the battlefield just now, this Titan palace is obviously much more spacious, and it can even allow the opponent to fly high in the air, which undoubtedly further increases the difficulty of our attack.
Almost in an instant, the wings of those parasitic dragons stirred up a strong wind, and they were already very close to us!
"Protect Your Majesty!"
Feeling the overwhelming momentum coming towards them, Joniel, Gray Old, and Ice Old also burst out with tremendous momentum and protected Lei Xiao one after another. The old and high-pitched chanting voices echoed, and the other main subordinates also showed their abilities and displayed their weapons one after another.
"Defensive formation!"
Broy and Cornette also reacted very quickly, commanding the dwarves to quickly move towards Lei Xiao. Ten sixth-level alchemical puppets and more than 10 fifth-level alchemical puppets were deployed on the periphery, all of them looking ready for battle.
As for Serin and other dragons such as Hong Ye, facing their former tribesmen, although they had mixed feelings in their hearts, they still transformed into dragons, with flames of anger flashing in their golden pupils.
"Although the enemy is huge in number, it will take some time for them to regenerate. As long as we seize the opportunity, we have a chance of winning!"
Lei Xiao waved his hand, and 10 sixth-order magic dragons and 50 fifth-order magic dragons were summoned. He encouraged everyone, "As long as we seize the opportunity and try to kill the culprit hiding behind the scenes, we can still tip the scales of victory!"
Hearing Lei Xiao's encouragement, our strong men responded one after another, and soon under Lei Xiao's command, they engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy.
For a moment, the huge Titan palace was filled with dragon roars, chants, and the collision of weapons and claws. Everywhere was shining with sharp swords and axes, dazzling magic power, and surging hot dragon breath, making the already steaming hall even hotter.
Facing at least 30 sixth-level enemies and hundreds of fifth-level enemies, under Lei Xiao's proper command, although our combat power was obviously weaker than that of the opponent, we still fought back and forth with the opponent and were not at a disadvantage.
The sword's edge flashing with cold light shattered the dragon scales, the dragon claws covered with purple crystals slapped the alchemical puppet away, the magic dragon and the parasitic dragon rolled and collided, and dragon breaths of various attributes were sprayed in turn, causing flames and ice to intertwine everywhere, and poisonous fog and piercing sonic booms to stir.
It didn't take long. Although Lei Xiao's proper command always enabled our strong men to avoid the enemy's siege and fill the torn defense gaps, the decline soon emerged in our camp. Even many alchemical puppets and summons were knocked to the ground or directly destroyed.
Faced with those former tribesmen who were obviously besieging them with a targeted purpose, although Serin, Hongye and other dragons knew clearly that the other party was no longer their real tribesmen but just a body being used, it still greatly affected the display of their own strength, and they were not as brave as at the beginning.
Although the other strong men on our side were not affected too much, due to the continuous life-and-death battles, even with the continuous consumption of various high-level potions and magic scrolls, their offensive momentum inevitably declined and they began to gasp for breath.
This is not the most critical point. What makes everyone even more shocked is that the degree to which these dragons are parasitized by purple crystals is obviously a level stronger than the previous batch.
Because the purple crystals cover a more comprehensive area all over the body, it is not only difficult to defeat, but the regeneration speed is also accelerated. Those lifeless white pupils are filled with purple light, flashing with an eerie cold light, constantly shaking everyone's heart.
"Haha, ants, let's see how long you can hold on!"
Soon, the culprit's triumphant voice sounded again, and he said grimly: "Today, no one can leave my palace, nor this dragon's lair!"
"Whale Fall Thunder Explosion!"
After knocking down a madly roaring sound dragon, Lei Xiao's forehead was already covered with sweat.
Before we knew it, we were already at an absolute disadvantage and began to lose ground.
In other words, we are in a completely desperate situation.
If we continue like this, the only outcome will be destruction.
