"The great true dragon has limited patience. If he doesn't come out, this place will be reduced to ashes by flames!"
Gresha roared and waved her dragon wings, bringing up a large number of sparks.
Its figure hovered over the Dimo Palace, and the other black dragons and green dragons also roared up to the sky. The loud and high dragon roars were like muffled thunder between dark clouds, sounding continuously and deafeningly.
Lowell, who was on the enemy side of Timo, saw this and joined them, pretending that he was on the same side as Gresha and the others.
The Cairn Snake Dragon that followed Garen hesitated for a moment and roared a few times.
Garen was in front of the dragons, calmly and silently looking at the tower-like Dimo Palace.
There is a lot of human flavor in it.
Some of them were surrounded by elemental auras, and the auras trembled, showing that they were not in a calm mood, but most of them were just ordinary people. Even across the palace, they were trembling because of the roar and threat of the real dragon outside.
After more than ten seconds, the fiery red dragon could no longer bear it.
The dragon's mouth opened, and the criss-crossed fangs seemed to be biting a ball of fire.
boom!
A flame ball was spat out from Gresha's mouth and landed on the steps in front of the palace. It exploded the stone slabs like a cannonball, and at the same time ignited a blazing flame. The high temperature slightly distorted the surrounding air.
At the same time, the Temple Knights of the Holy See of Light arrived.
Keynes's pupils reflected the firelight, and he looked at the five-color dragon roaring in the sky, his face darkened slightly.
Holy Oath Spell·Dispel Energy.
The milky white light blows like an invisible strong wind, extinguishing all the flames caused by the red dragon.
Gallon's eyes moved slightly when he saw Keynes's actions.
The Paladin is not a pure warrior profession, but is a kind of magician and martial artist.
They possess a power called Holy Oath Magic or Holy Oath Magic. After making an oath to abide by, and driven by firm belief, the Paladins can mobilize the power of the Oath of Justice for treatment and protection.
, fight against evil.
The stronger the faith of the paladin, the more powerful the holy oath spell will be.
"Make an oath to restrain yourself, trap your own desires, and gain strength..."
Garen withdrew his gaze.
On the other side, the closed palace door creaked and slowly opened.
First there was the sound of neat footsteps, and two rows of elite palace guards walked out, silently, like sculptures, standing in front of the Temple Knights and the True Dragon.
Then, some nobles in clothes embroidered with stars and bright moons walked out of the palace. The one in the center wore a golden crown and held a scepter that looked like a ball-peen hammer. His face was sad and his brows were tightly knitted together.
.
King Timo, Dylan VIII, Russell Dylan.
Different from the nobles of the principality who like to use beautiful and powerful things as their surnames in recent years, the Kingdom of Timo still follows the noble surnames passed down from thousands of years ago.
The Dylan family is the royal family that has always ruled Dimo.
It is the most noble surname in the Kingdom of Timo.
The nobles who came out of this central palace were basically members of the royal family.
Russell looks ordinary, with nothing outstanding about him. If he changes out of his king's clothes, then takes off his crown and scepter, and goes out on the street, he will be no different from ordinary human beings. In fact, he even belongs to the king.
There is very little momentum and majesty.
"There is a little elemental aura on him, he is probably a low-ranking third-level spellcaster, but he is not as powerful as the Duke of Thorns..."
Garen thought silently.
When he was in Mosha, those warriors who had experienced hundreds of battles and the mentally powerful spellcasters all turned pale and fearful in front of Garen.
However, the Archduke of Thorns, who had no talent for casting spells and was in poor physical condition, was able to ignore the pressure of the super-large creature's size without any abnormality.
People in high positions, even if they have no power, can decide the life and death of many people with just one word because of their great power. They will invisibly develop an extraordinary temperament and have far more courage and momentum than ordinary people.
.
Gallon did not see these in Russell.
The feeling Russell gave him was very ordinary.
If an ordinary king was born in an era of peace and tranquility, and had the support of a strong national power, it might be a good thing, and he would not cause a big mess because of his own ambition, causing the smoke of war to fill the air.
But now............
"An ordinary king, a country that is decaying day by day. If I were the Grand Duke of those subordinate principalities, I would not be content with the status quo."
Garen shook his head slightly.
"My Lords True Dragon, please don't be angry."
"Timo will abide by the contract and give you adequate rewards."
A palace mage whose strength was around the fifth ring raised his head and answered the five-color dragons.
Lowell's eyes widened, and two wisps of flames came out of his nostrils. His face was evil, and he showed his fangs and said, "Enough reward?"
"Your chief mage, turned into a lich, wants to kill us! This matter cannot be settled with enough compensation as you say!"
"If there is no compensation ten times the agreed reward, this city will turn into a boundless sea of fire!"
"This..." The speaker's face turned pale and he looked at King Timo next to him.
On the other side, Keynes said solemnly: "It is reasonable to follow the contract and ask for remuneration."
"But if you want to destroy the city, you must first know whether you can withstand the anger from the God of Light!"
The Holy See of Light does not interfere in the disputes of interests between humans, but it must control the attacks of evil dragons.
However, just after Keynes finished speaking, Russell sighed slightly, with a hint of numbness in his tired expression, and said slowly: "Timo violated the contract, and I am at fault first. I will try my best to satisfy the demands of all the real dragons.
"
Lowell nodded and said with satisfaction: "Human, you are quite sensible."
It seemed to have forgotten that it was not the combat force invited by Dimo.
After a pause, Russell's eyes wandered between the real dragons and the Temple Knights.
"I was confused by Harris and made wrong decisions and orders, but others had no idea about it."
"The sins committed by Haris will be borne by me alone. I will soon step down as king and go to the world of the dead to pray for the forgiveness of my ancestors."
He rubbed his cheeks, smiled bitterly at Keynes, and said: "There are no evil people here. Sir Keynes, please lead the knights to leave. Please see that the ancestors of all generations have not wronged the Church of Light, and give the royal court the last bit of face."
"
Keynes looked at King Timo, who had a numb face and was already determined to die. He shook his head and said slowly: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty Russell."
"I'm afraid you can't tell whether there is evil here."
"I really want to take care of the dignity and glory of the royal family, but..."
As soon as he finished speaking, several people among the royal family and nobles changed their expressions slightly and quietly retreated.
"You undead filth! Do you think you can hide it from my eyes!"
Keynes suddenly shouted loudly.
As he raised his arm, a rich white light suddenly flew out, turning into a whistling crescent-shaped white light blade in the air, three meters long and formidable.
Holy slash!
The white light blade is extremely fast.
When a few people had just a hint of death aura and wanted to cast spells to escape, they walked directly through the crowd and cut several people in half with precision, as easily as cutting cheese with a hot knife.
Because those people were mixed in the crowd, many people were chopped by the white light blade, but strangely, they did not suffer any injuries.
"The power given by the gods..."
Garen's eyes narrowed slightly, feeling the unusual hot energy from Keynes' attack.
Immediately afterwards, Keynes's eyes lit up, staring at the corpse like little suns.
"Evil souls should be purified with fire! Return to peace and rest."
He said solemnly.
Purifying flame!
boom!
The white flame suddenly ignited, and the burned flesh inside did not change, but everyone heard the miserable wails of pain, and souls filled with death aura struggled in the purifying flames, and were turned into ashes and twisted bit by bit.
Their expressions showed that they were in extreme pain and showed no sign of peace and rest.
The royal family members present felt chilled and hurried away.
Facing the evil creatures, Keynes acted decisively, destroying the body with one blow, and burning the soul with another blow, as fast as thunder, which was completely different from his talkative attitude when facing the human guards before.
"Keynes! This is the Royal Court of Dimo! It is not the territory of your Holy See of Light!"
Russell's face looked very ugly, and his tone became a little tougher.
Keynes turned his head, his expression unchanged, and said to Russell: "The glory of God shines on the earth, and wherever evil creatures are, the Holy See of Light has the right to step in and intervene!"
Ignored Russell's angry rebuke.
Riding on the tallest white-scaled war horse, a dazzling white light appeared around Keynes's eyes.
Exploring evil.
Immediately afterwards, he looked around, scanning the surroundings inch by inch. His eyes finally crossed the crowd and finally settled on a corner on the southwest side of the palace.
He saw a group of death aura that was gradually dissipating but was still strong, as well as a silvery white stream of light.
Um?
Silvery white light?
Keynes was slightly startled.
boom!
The silver light flashed away and hit him.
In the sound of explosion, earth and rocks flew, the city wall collapsed, a deep pit appeared on the ground, and smoke and dust filled the air.
Everyone's attention was attracted by the sudden change.
call!
The silver dragon wings spread out, causing strong winds to sweep away the smoke and dust.
In the translucent magic dragon's claws, he held a small, cracked black box, and Garen was looking at it carefully.
If the legendary lich's phylactery hadn't been broken into pieces and was still exuding the aura of death, even the Pope of Light would have been hard-pressed to discover it in person.
It was just a small black box the size of a fist, but it was engraved with a large number of necromancy school runes. It was made of a magical metal material that Garen didn't know. It was very hard. He gradually increased the power of the dragon's claws.
, but the power of this spell cannot create a single dent.
There are many black gems inlaid on the broken phylactery, giving it a tomb-like aura of death.
"Necromancer gems can only be produced in places with strong death aura..."
"Harris' broken soul should be in the phylactery."
Because there was still an amazing aura of death inside, Garen did not open it immediately, nor did he touch it.
There may be some insidious and vicious spells left for the person who opens the life box. It won't be too late to open it again after the death aura is almost exhausted.
Taking out a space ring, Garen thought, and the life box disappeared and was taken in.
But then, a subtle cracking sound was heard, and many cracks appeared on the space ring. It could not withstand the power of the life box and was being broken and damaged.
Garen's expression changed slightly, and he quickly took out the life box again.
Click!
The space ring was completely shattered, and the items inside that could not be taken out were involved in the turbulence of space, and it is unknown what world they will end up in.
"Fortunately, the fruits inside are the fruits harvested before, not gold coins or gems."
Garen breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s just that it can’t be put into the space ring...then I can only hold it all the time?
Garen didn't want to put this thing in his mouth.
"Sir, I can keep it for you."
The cairn snake dragon meandered closer and said.
Cairn snake dragons are not undead creatures. They love the aura of death and often build nests and live in large tombs or some bone burial sites. They like to feed on undead creatures. Many of them deal with lichs and are highly skilled in most necromancy spells.
Resistance.
Planting a time mark on the phylactery, Garen threw it towards the Cairn Snake Dragon.
However, Keynes suddenly jumped up, his body wrapped in holy power, and rushed towards the phylactery.
His palms ignited with holy flames and he grabbed the phylactery.
"Such evil items need to be purified and destroyed!"
Garen's eyes narrowed.
The slowness spell immediately acted on Keynes, slowing him down.
The huge stone cairn snake dragon poked its head, and the phylactery fell into its mouth in a blink of an eye.
Under the acceleration state, Garon's dragon tail flicked violently and landed heavily on Keynes, sending him flying backwards and landing on the ground.
The sudden change caused the real dragons to change their expressions, brewing dragon breath in their mouths, and aimed at the Temple Knights.
The paladins and priests of the Holy See of Light had serious expressions on their faces, and they started to move. Their bodies were all glowing with white light, and they were surging with power and were ready for battle.
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn. Krichins and Fred quickly flew up and came to Galen's side. The elemental aura was waving around their bodies. They were already silently reciting incantations to express their positions.
At the same time, Cairns, who was knocked several hundred meters away and had a deep hole in the ground, patted the dust and walked out.
Except for his hair being a little messy, he didn't appear to be injured.
He looked at the silver dragon, with an obvious look of fear and vigilance in his eyes.
At that moment, he was focused on Garen, but when Garen moved, it was as fast as silver lightning, so he couldn't react for a moment and was directly knocked away.
He does not have the level and insight of Harris, and cannot discover the power of time.
"Human, what do you want to do?"
"The most benevolent Paladin, do you want to steal other people's trophies?"
Garen looked down at Keynes, his platinum dragon eyes glowing with a sharp and compelling light, and said.
Keynes's expression remained unchanged, and he walked out of the pit step by step, saying: "If the Lich's phylactery is obtained by someone with intentions, it will cause terrible disasters."
"For the sake of a bright future, things like this should be destroyed immediately."
Garen shook his head and said in a low voice: "However, Harris died in my hands, and his phylactery was broken because of me. It is my trophy."
"What to do with this phylactery, whether to destroy it or keep it, is up to me!"
Keynes's face changed slightly when he heard Gallon say that Harris died in his hands.
Keynes is aware of Harris's strength, and he will only become stronger after becoming a lich.
If what this silver dragon said is true... Keynes' eyes became more cautious and he looked at Galleon again.
The two pairs of winding dragon horns, the majestic and powerful muscles under the silver scales, the sharp claws and the slender dragon tail... The Paladin has a strong intuition, and Keynes's intuition told him that the silver dragon in front of him was very...
Danger.
"It is your trophy, but it is also evil."
"Destroying it right here is the best option."
Garen smiled and said calmly: "If you can provide something of equal value, I can exchange it."
"But just want me to destroy it...I refuse."
"If you want to grab it head-on, you can give it a try."
