Volume 8: The Road to the Ancient Dragon Chapter 478: Continue to Slay the Dragon
When the light spot of the original force merged into his body, Murphy immediately felt a powerful force flowing in his body.
Based on his previous experience, he tried to control the flow of this power. This time, he planned to strengthen his dragon wings.
With a thought, the original power gradually gathered towards the back.
There was a sudden sharp pain under the ribs, and the scales made of rock kept bulging. With a click, a pair of brand new dragon wings grew out from under the ribs, expanding and growing rapidly.
And the original pair of dragon wings were also undergoing drastic changes.
The dragon scales became thicker and heavier, covering the dragon wings layer by layer, making the dragon wings have the same texture as rock.
The newly born pair of dragon wings also had a rocky texture.
Soon, two pairs of dragon wings stretched out into the air.
Murphy felt the new structure of the dragon wings and wondered how it could fly.
He had seen images of ancient dragons flying in his dreams. Ancient dragons had four wings, but he had never observed them up close. He did not expect them to be so strange.
[System prompt: You have obtained the power of origin, and the progress of your Ancient Dragon Road mission has been improved. The current progress is 40%. You have unlocked a new ancient dragon trait - Ancient Dragon Wings.]
Murphy hurriedly checked it out.
【Ancient Dragon Wings (Legendary Trait)
Passive 1: Extraordinary Flight. Your flying ability is upgraded from biological specialty to supernatural power. It is no longer affected by aerodynamic forces and is immune to gravity magic.
Passive 2: Immortal Rock Wings. The ancient dragon has two pairs of dragon wings. The rock-like dragon wings are indestructible and can be used for defense to resist the enemy's powerful attacks, or to hit the enemy with the dragon wings, causing huge damage.
You get new basic action modules - Dragon Wing Slam, Dragon Wing Block.
Characteristics: The stone dragon wings unique to the ancient dragon clan. It is said that the ancient dragons were born in a special plane outside the real universe, where there is no gravity and air. Therefore, the wings of the ancient dragons are not like those of ordinary creatures, but have a peculiar texture like ancient rocks, which are indestructible.
As it has mastered the power of the laws of space, the ancient dragon can fly freely without being affected by gravity and aerodynamics, and its wings are mostly used as weapons. 】
Murphy was surprised and delighted.
This is quite amazing, a supernatural power, equivalent to being able to fly with great strength. In the future, you don't have to worry about being unable to fly due to injured wings.
The situation in which the Dark Dragon's Nest was unable to fly after being hit by a fatal throw will never happen again.
He waved the dragon wings. The heavy dragon wings were not easy to use. As soon as the wings were spread, an invisible force made him take off into the air immediately. After circling for a few circles under control, Murphy found that the dragon wings still had a certain effect in the process of flying, mainly used to adjust the flight direction and altitude.
It feels a bit like the wing of an airplane.
He suddenly dived down towards a huge rock on the top of a mountain, and the moment he landed, he swung his dragon wings with all his might.
boom!
A rocky mountain peak about seven or eight meters high was swept away and shattered into rock fragments all over the sky.
Murphy circled and landed back on the ground. The heavy dragon wings were incredibly powerful, and would definitely give him a huge advantage in future aerial combat.
Mysterious voice: "Congratulations, Dragon Eater. You are one step closer to the power of the ancient dragon."
Aidan Delong (Storm Dragon King): "Yes, soon the power of the ancient dragon will be mine. Goodbye, we will see each other again soon."
I flew back to Dragon's Death Castle, but the troops had not returned yet. It would take two days to get back to Dragon's Death Castle from the Ice Rift. It seemed that I needed to be patient and wait. It was getting dark, so Murphy quit the game.
After climbing out of the game cabin, Murphy felt surprisingly good.
There is no weakness, fatigue, or discomfort as in the past.
The power of origin seemed to have acted on his real body as well. He could feel the surging power surging in his body like a tide.
If he wasn't in the city, he would have transformed into a giant dragon and flown out for a spin.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar city night scene outside the window, Murphy was in a trance. He had forgotten how long it had been since he quit the game.
Ever since he gained the ability to transform into a dragon in reality, he could clearly feel that his physique had undergone a drastic change and he was no longer that fragile human being.
Even without transforming into a dragon, this change still exists.
Even after lying in the game cabin for many days, he still didn't feel any discomfort, and even felt full of energy.
Murphy guessed that this was probably because he had acquired the abilities of the dragon clan. The longer the dragon clan slept, the stronger they became. Long periods of hibernation would gradually increase their strength and recover from injuries.
He even had some doubts that if he found a cave and slept there for hundreds of years, there might not be any problems.
Of course, this is just a thought.
He still needs to gain strength in the game.
It was already midnight. After eating something as required, Murphy couldn't wait to lie down on the bed.
He was looking forward to what kind of scenes he would see in this dream.
Any information needs to be compared multiple times to get the answer that is closest to the truth. NPCs in the game can also lie, and he knows this very well.
No matter who that mysterious voice was, Murphy was not prepared to completely believe what it said.
Closing his eyes, Murphy quickly fell into a dream.
…
"Myrgos, Kalecgos, follow me!"
A dragon's throat brought Murphy into the state instantly. The scene before him was still the same as what he had seen in his last dream about the city in the sky and the invasion of the ancient god Xal'atath.
Because it took so long, Murphy was a little dazed and felt like he couldn't follow the plot.
He looked around and found himself soaring in the sky. There was an ancient dragon flying in front of him. It was Malygos! He recognized him immediately.
Another ancient dragon was flying on the right side of Malygos. The three ancient dragons were like fighter planes flying in formation, breathing dragon breath downwards as they flew.
Then two more teams of ancient dragons flew across each other, and all the ancient dragons were doing the same thing, breathing dragon breath at the huge black monster that was wriggling in the city below.
Malygos (Ancient Dragon): "Brothers, destroy this monster. The holy land of the ancient dragons cannot be violated."
Neltharion (Ancient Dragon): "I don't need you to teach me Malygos, brothers, crush this monster with dragon thunder!"
"Dragon Thunder!"
"Dragon Thunder!"
"Dragon Thunder!"
The ancient dragons roared in response one after another, and the red lightning gathered on the bodies of the ancient dragons, and for a moment the sky was filled with lightning.
Red dragon thunders fell down, and dragon thunder breath bombarded the black flesh and blood body.
This was a war between rock and flesh. Those wriggling tentacles and grotesquely extending limbs were constantly turned into charcoal and burned to ashes under the bombardment of dragon thunder.
"Dragon Thunder!"
Murphy heard a voice coming from his mouth. It was Milgos and hundreds of ancient dragons, who together released deadly lightning towards the ancient god Xal'atath.
Countless dragon thunders struck down, and the black monster was blown to pieces. Even though it was the real body of the Ancient God, it still had little ability to resist the bombardment of dragon thunders.
However, killing Xal'atath is obviously not an easy task.
What was destroyed was only the skin of this horrible monster. The black flesh and blood split open, and countless monsters with bat-like wings and tumor-like bodies rushed out like a shield covering the sky and pounced on the ancient dragons.
Sartharion grew countless tentacles, reaching into the air, trying to drag the ancient dragon down from the sky.
But the ancient dragons fought back tenaciously, and the powerful dragon thunder shattered everything.
The battle became extremely fierce.
While fighting, Murphy observed the ancient dragons around him through Milgos's perspective, and he recognized several of them.
Neltharion, a huge ancient dragon with a rocky body covered with many raised scales.
Ankarade is obviously fatter than other ancient dragons.
Borelus, who was on the periphery of the battle, used the power of eternal frost to try to freeze Xal'atath.
New ancient dragons kept joining the battle, and the huge dragon-shaped stone sculptures standing on the city’s towers and walls came to life and turned into ancient dragons.
For a moment, the sky was filled with ancient dragons releasing dragon thunder and various dragon language magic.
Four ancient dragons on a city wall, almost as big as Neltharion, dived down at the same time, and the bombardment broke off one of Xal'atath's huge tentacles.
"Neltharion, you guys have to work harder. It's been a while since we've dealt with this monster. If we disturb the Dragon God's sleep, how are you going to deal with it?"
"Shut up Iludikon, stop talking nonsense and join the battle!"
Ilyudicon? The Dragon King of Disaster?
Murphy looked at the four ancient dragons. Irydikon was of the same size as Neltharion, and the remaining three were only slightly smaller. It was obvious that there were small groups among the ancient dragons.
Suddenly, a dragon roar was heard in the distance, containing endless anger and tyranny. In an instant, all the quarreling ancient dragons stopped.
Looking solemnly into the distance, the largest ancient dragon statue moved.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The size of the ancient dragon was surprisingly comparable to that of Xal'atath. It was as majestic as a mountain, and its rocky body stood tall like a rock peak. Every step it took made the ground beneath its feet tremble. Its terrifying weight made people doubt how it could fly.
Yet it did take flight, like a dark cloud covering the sky, rapidly approaching the battlefield.
Galakrond (King of Ancient Dragons): "You who dare to disturb the Dragon God's sleep, dare to defile the sacred sky city, you filthy life from outside the world, I, Galakrond, hereby sentence you to destruction! Roar!"
Red dragon thunder fell from the sky at the summons of Galakrond, and for a moment the sky turned red.
After a saturation bombardment, Galakrond launched a sudden charge, and all the city walls and towers were razed to the ground. Its mountain-like body crushed the black, quagmire-like flesh and blood of Xal'atath.
For a moment, it seemed as if the huge piece of flesh and blood would be crushed to pieces, but Xal'atath's body was as insubstantial as a black swamp, and Galakrond's blind charge instead made it fall into a trap.
Countless dark tentacles quickly spread along Galakrond's limbs, growing barbed flesh thorns that pierced into Galakrond's huge body.
The black flesh continued to extend upwards, and it actually had a tendency to gradually wrap around Galakrond.
Galakrond was still unleashing his dragon thunder, but for every tentacle that was shattered, more sprouted.
Galakrond is in danger, just like falling into a dark swamp.
It's corrupting Galakrond!
At this critical moment, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, and time and space stopped in an instant.
The black substance that wrapped around Galakrond first stagnated for a moment, then madly broke away and crawled towards the edge of the sky city, as if trying to escape from something terrible.
Deep in this city, something has awakened.
Murphy suddenly woke up from his dream.
He looked at the ceiling in front of him, and it took him a while to react.
It’s the Dragon God!
Murphy was still shocked in his heart. Even though he didn't see the Dragon God's true form, just his appearance made Xalatas tremble and even want to escape.
If I could gain such power!
Murphy thought excitedly in his heart, No, I can't sleep anymore, sleep is meaningless to me, the right thing to do is to play games.
Murphy immediately climbed out of bed and lay down in the game cabin.
…
The next day, when the sun illuminated the castle.
Jaina woke up from her sleep and stretched herself .
The excitement of adventure made her dream all night last night. Sometimes she was awakened by nightmares, and sometimes she was awakened by good dreams.
She dreamed that countless dragons fell from the sky and tore her into pieces.
She also dreamed that she had found the dragon's treasure, and she was overwhelmed by countless magic artifacts, magic scrolls, and treasures.
After waking up, I felt relieved but also disappointed.
It was not until she saw the Weaver's Staff in her arms that she could not help but feel joy in her heart.
The staff was made of mithril , and the huge magic crystal was supported by a dragon claw-shaped staff. Whenever she gripped the staff tightly, she could feel a resonance of arcane energy.
What made her most happy was that this was the result of her hard work.
In the battle yesterday, she killed several blue dragons with her own hands.
…
This good mood continued until breakfast time.
The Dragon Knights' troops were still on their way back to the castle, so Asona, the leader of the team, was not seen at the table.
She was teleported back with Vivian yesterday.
It was Prince Aidan who appeared in the banquet hall with an excited look on his face.
And announced a decision.
"I have decided to carry out the next dragon-slaying operation as soon as the troops return."
“So soon?”
Roland was a little surprised. After each dragon slaying, the captain would spend some time digesting the harvest and dealing with alliance affairs at the same time. Now that the Alliance and the Horde are at war, is the captain really not going to get involved?
He asked the question that was in his mind.
Murphy shook his head. "There's no need to waste time. It's just a fight between mortals. It won't change anything. As long as I complete the Dragon Feast and gain..."
Murphy didn't say anything else. It was enough for the Dragon God to know his secret himself.
"When I gain great power, those orcs will be nothing more than ants."
Vivian Nightsong (Ancient Mage): "My lord, you killed the lord of the blue dragon army. The guardian dragons are likely to take targeted actions. I personally suggest that you should be prepared next time you kill a dragon."
Murphy nodded, "That's right, don't worry, in fact, I already have a plan."
