Volume 8: The Road to the Ancient Dragon Chapter 509: The Supreme Dragon King
【Road of the Dragon God (Origin Story Mission)
Mission objective: Collect the five sources of power, master the laws of power, forge the authority of the Dragon God, and ascend to the position of the Dragon God.
Mission Reward: 5000 plot points, obtain the Dragon God Godhood and upgrade your game character template from the hero/BOSS template to the god template. This mission is the last part of the Dragon God Return plot line. 】
Warning: Completing the original storyline will have a profound impact on the game's worldview, and players can gain powerful power from the storyline.
Murphy accepted it without hesitation.
A new task immediately appears in the taskbar.
[Road of the Dragon God (Origin Story Mission/In Progress)
Current task progress: 1/5.
Authority 1: Storm God Power (weak authority). You have gained some divinity in the storm domain and mastered the power of the storm force, thus creating the storm authority. When you become the Dragon God, the Storm God Power will become one of the domain powers controlled by the Dragon God.
Authority 2: Unforged.
Authority 3: Unforged.
Authority 4: Unforged.
Authority 5: Unforged. 】
Murphy was surprised, he thought he had to eat the hearts of the five guardian dragons to transform into a Dragon God, but from the description of the task, eating the hearts of the five guardian dragons and seizing their guardian power was just a more convenient method. It seemed that other demigods, gods, and powerful beings who mastered the power of laws might also be possible.
The thought flashed through his mind, and he didn't have time to think about it. He quickly checked the legendary trait of the Heart of the Ancient Dragon and the skill of the Ancient Dragon Incarnation.
【Heart of the Ancient Dragon (Legendary trait).
Effect 1: Ancient Dragon Wisdom. You have gained the ancient wisdom of the ancient dragons. All the knowledge and secrets of the ancient dragons appear in your memory. You can search for details in the character database, or you can directly read it through the action "Meditation".
Effect 2: Insight into the Law. Your powerful perception ability allows you to see the essence of power and master the laws of the world. You can observe and learn the abilities used by the enemy in battle (you must master the energy system of this skill).
[Ancient Dragon Incarnation (Legendary Skill/Dragon Feast Skill)
Active effect: Transform into an ancient dragon.
Passive effect: You have unlocked all ancient dragon traits, and your ancient dragon traits are transformed from passive skills to biological basic abilities.
The race of your current game character has been readjusted from 'Dragon' to 'Ancient Dragon'.
You get all the basic action modules of the ancient dragon.
You have gained mastery of the Ancient Dragon language, and your current level is MAX.
You have gained access to Kamyatra, the city in the sky.
Plot-derived skills: Forge authority. Ancient dragons are legendary creatures that do not belong to this world. Their bodies made of ancient rocks are containers that carry the power of gods. You can seize their power and forge your own power by defeating powerful beings such as guardian dragons, elemental kings, wilderness demigods, ancient gods, and gods who hold power and authority...
Plot-derived skills: Ascend to the Dragon God. (Cannot be used, requires the authority of the Dragon God, requires the Dragon God Throne)]
Murfei just skimmed over most of the content. The situation was too urgent and he didn't have enough time to read it thoroughly.
Only this derivative skill - Forging Authority - made him slightly surprised. In other words, as long as he killed this kind of enemy, he could directly seize its authority without having to eat the dragon's heart.
Well, that's convenient.
This skill should be the scene skill given by the task.
But it is not easy to defeat such an enemy.
As Murphy continued to fly upwards, he glanced down and saw the four dragon kings leading a group of dragons circling upwards to chase after him.
Murphy immediately opened the hero's specialty again.
Although the ancient dragon is powerful, Murphy still has no confidence in fighting so many enemies alone. He must add all the power that can be improved, so this time he has to choose the hero's specialty first.
What shocked him was that among the three specialties that appeared this time, a mythical specialty appeared for the first time, and two of them appeared at once.
Expertise 1
[Time Traveler (Behavior Feat/Epic Feat): You have completed a time journey and arrived at a timeline other than your own, thus mastering the secret of time travel.
Expertise Effect 1: Time Travel. Your Time Travel skill is enhanced to Time Travel, and you can more accurately choose the timeline you want to enter when using this skill.
Expertise Effect 2: Time Traveler. You can bring up to four teammates with you when you travel through time.
Specialty 2
[Supreme Dragon King (Mythical Expertise) During your long adventure, you have successfully completed the following five legendary achievements.
1. Obtain the title of Dragon King.
2. Kill 10 ancient dragons cumulatively.
3. Kill five dragon kings cumulatively.
4. Successfully survived the joint siege of the five guardian dragon kings.
5. Kill a mythical creature [Ancient Dragon]
Your actions have earned you huge prestige and influence among the dragon clan. All dragons are in awe of you. You are recognized as the strongest dragon among the dragon clan, and become the object of fear and worship of all dragons. You have thus earned the title of Supreme Dragon King.
Expertise Effect 1: The Strongest Dragon. Your reputation in all dragon-related forces is raised to worship (this effect does not change your relationship with hostile forces). When there are other dragons around you, you will gain additional bonuses to all attributes.
+5% for each ancient dragon, +2% for each elder dragon, +1% for each adult dragon, +0.5% for each young dragon, and +0.1% for each young dragon.
This effect can be stacked up to 50%.
Expertise Effect 2: Gathering of Ten Thousand Dragons (once a year). After use, summon all dragons in the current world to gather at the location you specify. All dragons in the current world will receive your summons, and the target will decide whether to accept your summons based on its distance, relationship with you, and current environment.
Expertise Effect 3: Domination of Dragons. You can dominate a dragon to serve you, and the dragon will not be able to refuse any orders you issue that go against its subjective will. The probability of successfully dominating a dragon that is hostile to you is reduced by 50%, and the probability of successfully dominating a dragon in a state of fear is increased by 100%. 】
Heroic Specialty 3
[Immortal (Mythic feat). You resisted the damage of the high-level artifact [Dragon Soul] when it attacked with all its strength and successfully survived. As a result, you have mastered the skills to resist attacks that are too powerful, and your body has been strengthened.
Expertise Effect 1: Indestructible. You automatically gain 5% damage reduction when you are attacked by a skill with more than 1,000 points of damage. The more powerful the skill launched against you, the higher the damage reduction you gain. This effect can be stacked up to 66%.
Expertise Effect 2: Dragon Soul Tempering. As you endure the wrath of the dragon soul, your dragon body is tempered by the dragon soul, gaining 250 points of biological armor, 150 points of all element resistance, and 350 points of toughness.
I have to say that these three specialties are all very powerful. Although the Time Traveler is 'only' a legendary specialty, the effect is absolutely amazing. It allows team travel through time, which means that you can team up to score points in the future. There are no players in other timelines, which is equivalent to having endless resources.
The Immortal's specialty can maximize one's own survivability. In the future, when facing more powerful enemies or even gods, this specialty will undoubtedly give you a better chance of survival.
The higher your damage, the more I can resist. It can be said that I become stronger when facing a stronger opponent.
Under normal circumstances, these two specialties are worth considering.
However, after taking a look at the densely packed group of dragons chasing after him from below, as well as the four aggressive Dragon Kings, Murphy decisively chose the specialty of the Supreme Dragon King.
The four dragon kings plus the four guardian powers are enough to defeat him even if he transforms into an ancient dragon. Although the ancient dragons are powerful, the guardian power wielded by the four dragon kings is the power transformed from the authority of the Dragon God, which touches the laws of the world itself. Even the ancient dragons may not be able to resist it.
But with the expertise of the Supreme Dragon King, it would be safe.
In order to win this battle, he must do his best.
The moment the hero's specialty was selected, Murphy suddenly stopped climbing.
It did a 360-degree roll in the air and then dived vertically downward.
What!? Is this guy crazy?
The four dragon kings were all stunned when they saw this, but this is better, even if it is an ancient dragon, in front of the power of protection, the ancient dragon must kneel down to me.
The two sides, one climbing and the other diving, quickly approached each other.
The gap between an ancient dragon and an entire army of dragons seems so huge.
However, the closer they got, the more the four dragon kings felt something was wrong. Why was the opponent's momentum getting stronger and stronger? Even the size seemed to be increasing.
If they were players who could see the health bar, they would be surprised to find that the upper limit of the health bar above the head of the Ancient Dragon King was increasing rapidly.
At this moment, Murphy activated two heroic specialties at the same time.
[Lone Warrior (Combat Expertise/Legend)
Expertise Effect: Fighting Alone. When there are no friendly units around you and you are surrounded by enemies (the number of enemies is greater than or equal to 10), you will gain an additional 5% attribute bonus. The more enemies there are, the higher the attribute bonus will be, up to a maximum of 50%.
Your skills will also have a higher chance of reaching their maximum power. 】
[Supreme Dragon King (Mythic Specialty)
Expertise Effect 1: The Strongest Dragon. ...When there are other dragons around you, you will gain additional bonuses to all attributes.
+5% for each ancient dragon, +2% for each elder dragon, +1% for each adult dragon, +0.5% for each young dragon, and +0.1% for each young dragon.
This effect can be stacked up to 50%. 】
The Lone Hero + the Strongest Dragon directly superimposed all of Murphy's attributes by 100%.
Murphy originally had 300,000 health points. After strengthening the blood of the ancient dragon, his health points directly exceeded 500,000. And now with the 100% bonus to all attributes, his health points have exceeded 1 million.
This is just a change in blood volume.
And his own attributes, the huge increase in ability brought by the 100% improvement in all attributes, make his physical strength far better than any other Dragon King present.
The true damage of Super Ancient Dragon Lightning, plus the 100% attribute increase in skill power, gave his damage a devastating boost.
The ancient dragon majesty emanating from his body frightened the dragons below, causing them to tremble continuously.
Before we got close, the dragons looked disorganized.
Aidan Delon (King of Ancient Dragons): "Foolish degenerates, arrogant rebels, come and face your true king!"
Super Dragon Thunder Breath——
Boom! The red lightning was like a divine punishment from heaven, with an unstoppable momentum, crashing down on his head. The color of the lightning was red and black, and its extreme power made it look terrifying, as if no one was allowed to enter.
The four dragon kings felt the threat instantly and immediately scattered, and under the influence of the time acceleration effect, they managed to avoid the attack with difficulty.
But the group of dragons below them didn't have this opportunity.
The dark red dragon lightning was like a laser railgun. Wherever the lightning passed, the bodies of the affected dragons were cut in half like moths in a flame and burned to ashes and charcoal.
A breath of dragon thunder blew over, and more than a dozen dragons, big and small, were killed.
The four dragon kings were confused and bewildered. What was going on? How could this guy suddenly become so powerful? He was far from being this powerful before.
How could they know that before it was four against one, which would not trigger the Lone Hero at all, but now it is hundreds against one, with the superposition of various heroic specialties, plus the perfect change after transforming into an ancient dragon, there is absolutely no shortcomings, making Murphy's strength far beyond their imagination.
Forbidden spell - Comet Storm!
Malygos roared and unleashed the power of magic.
Countless arcane comets attacked Murphy madly.
Murphy had been severely injured by this move before, but this time, he was completely different from before.
The dragon wings directly protected the left and right sides without any intention of dodging.
Boom boom boom! Arcane comets continued to explode on him, but they could only cause a mere 200 to 300 points of damage, less than half of the previous damage. For the Ancient Dragon King with more than a million HP, it was just a tickle.
It turns out that being tough and thick-skinned is the true nature of a strong person.
Murphy rushed to Malygos despite the bombardment of Arcane Storm.
Dragon Thunder Claw!
Grab directly at Malygos' chest.
This claw easily penetrated the arcane barrier that Malygos had prepared in advance, tearing the dragon scales and flesh on his chest.
“Get out of the way!”
Time speeds up!
Malygos sped up and dodged instantly, but was still left with three hideous bloody marks on his chest by the Dragon Thunder Claw.
Malygos was filled with shock and anger, and he rolled sideways to create some distance. The previous blow almost took his life, and this was just an ordinary basic fighting skill.
Malygos (Blue Dragon King): "Let's all work together - together!"
However, the four dragon kings did not have the courage to rush forward first. They just circled around and breathed dragon breath.
Murphy laughed, "If you didn't come, I would."
He pounced towards the nearest Nozdormu.
Nozdormu is not very strong in fighting, but his speed is beyond words.
The power of protection - time travel back!
Without even accelerating, he instantly jumped back to where he was ten seconds ago, and immediately went from being the closest to the person to being the farthest away.
Alexstrasza cursed inwardly, "You old rascal."
"Dragon Legion! Destroy this enemy."
The Red Dragon Queen knows how to use her numbers to defeat the few. As the guardian of life, Alexstrasza's fertility is absolutely the best among all dragons. The number of dragons in the Red Dragon Legion is also the largest among the five major dragon clans.
Now he brings the entire dragon army to seek revenge, what should I do if I join in?
Dozens of adult dragons immediately gathered around, most of them were red dragons. A brave adult red dragon pounced forward, trying to hold back the strange dragon in front of it and create opportunities for other dragons.
But Murphy just clawed away, and the ancient dragon's claws cut the huge body of the red dragon with a wingspan of forty or fifty meters into two halves.
The enormous force was completely irresistible.
It flew and advanced among the dragons at an extremely fast speed, and each dive could easily kill a giant dragon.
It was like an eagle rushing into a flock of chickens, killing them at will.
"Form a line and focus fire on him!"
A red dragon lord roared, and the dragons immediately formed a circle, roaring and spewing out red flames. The flames in the sky completely engulfed the Ancient Dragon King, and it seemed as if a fire cloud appeared in the sky.
New dragons kept climbing to the current height, joining this circle and spewing in formation.
However, how can the speed of flames compare to that of lightning?
Thundercloud incarnation!
The King of Ancient Dragons directly transformed into a huge thundercloud flashing with destructive thunder and pounced towards the area where the dragons were most densely packed.
The dense formation left the dragons with no chance to dodge, and three adult red dragons were swallowed up by the thunderclouds in an instant.
Lightning flashed in the thundercloud, the screams of giant dragons rang out one after another, and there was a crackling sound of electricity. Then, three charred dragon corpses fell from the thundercloud.
Originally, this skill did not have high damage, and was mainly used for quick displacement and damage reduction. However, with the enhancement of Super Ancient Dragon Lightning, the lightning released by the thundercloud alone was enough to easily kill a baby dragon and injure a young dragon.
Even if it is an adult dragon, once it is pulled into the clouds, its health will drop to the bottom instantly.
The dragons were so frightened that they scattered and their formation was instantly destroyed.
The giant dragons didn't dare to get close and could only breathe dragon breath from a distance.
The dragon breath all over the sky looks lively, but the hit rate and damage are pitifully low.
This is not the end yet.
Miracle - the storm is coming!
A small storm enveloped the battlefield.
At first the four dragon kings didn't take it seriously at all, but the next second.
Dragon Thunder Storm!
The storm was only meant to slow down the dragons and prevent them from escaping.
Dragon Thunder Storm is the real killer move.
The scarlet lightning merged directly into the storm, and in an instant countless bolts of lightning crashed down.
Although the skill of Dragon Thunder Storm has a very large range, the speed and power of the falling lightning are enough to deal with ordinary soldiers and monsters, but it is still a little insufficient to deal with adult dragons.
But now, each of these red thunders is like a divine punishment that takes one's life. Every time a dragon thunder falls, it can seriously injure an adult dragon. Even an adult dragon cannot withstand a few of them.
The young dragon was killed instantly when hit.
The young dragon can only resist two or three times at most.
Boom boom boom boom!
Murphy was suspended in the center of the storm, resisting the dragon breath and dragon language magic coming from all directions, and he managed to defeat the entire dragon army with his own strength.
Alexstrasza (Dragon Queen): "No! My child!"
The Red Dragon Queen was heartbroken. As the Red Dragon Queen, she could sacrifice her own offspring when necessary, but such tragic casualties still made her heart bleed.
Let’s do it!
The Red Dragon Queen finally attacked, and a breath of dragon came towards him. The red flame was completely different from ordinary flames, as if it was the color of blood.
The power to protect life - burning the fire of life!
The most powerful thing about this skill is that, in theory, it can burn the opponent's vitality according to a percentage.
However, when the flames sprayed on Murphy, it had no effect as expected.
-1128!
The Ancient Dragon King looked down at the Red Dragon Queen with contempt, "Alexstrasza, your understanding of life is too narrow. The sacred ancient dragons are different from you - inferior creatures."
Dragon Thunder Breath!
boom!
-17952 (seriously injured)!
A breath of dragon's breath directly pierced through Alexstrasza's scales.
In the severe pain, Alexstrasza finally remembered that the ancient dragon's ancient rock-like body was another form of life that was completely different from flesh and blood.
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
"No, we can still fight." - Malygos's Breath of Oblivion!
"Don't go crazy, Malygos, take us away quickly!" The power of dream protection - advanced hypnosis!
"Damn it, it really doesn't work."
The four dragon kings were also frightened. Although the ancient dragon was very powerful, it was not so exaggerated in their memory.
How could they know about this abnormal combination of hero expertise + boss form?
When all attributes are increased by 100%, it is not the effect of 1+1=2, but the effect of 10×10=100.
Whether it's melee combat or the power of dragon and thunder, they are no longer on the same level.
A casual claw can deliver a fatal blow, and a casual spit can cause serious injuries.
If the four dragon kings fought Murphy alone, they might have been able to win better, but they brought their dragon army with them, which directly maxed out Murphy's attributes.
Malygos (Blue Dragon King): "Blue Dragonflight - open the gates and retreat!"
Clank, clank, clank!
Huge portals kept lighting up in the sky . Blue dragons opened the portals and ran away, followed by other dragons.
Murphy stood in the air, looking at the giant dragon army fleeing in panic below, and let out a king's roar.
Aidan Delong (King of Ancient Dragons): "Run away, fragile reptiles, feel the fear in your hearts, engrave it in your memory, remember my name, my name is Aidan Delong, I am the King of Ancient Dragons - the Lord of All Dragons!"
Not a single dragon dared to stop and respond. Just as Murphy had said, they fled the place in fear.
When the dragon-thunder storm gradually subsided, the sky became clear and no dragon could be seen except Murphy.
