"Candlelight Shadow has a dragon …" He Yi looked from afar.
Lin Yixin put a hand on the handle of the dragon and said, "What do we do now?
Do we attack?
They don't seem to have many people … "
I shook my head. "No, according to the map, Candle Dragon has at least a few hundred players. They will appear soon. Let's go before they discover us and turn in the quest. Completing the quest is more important. Let's not waste time with them here. Everyone else, read normally."
"Mn!"
… …
We slowly hid in the forest and avoided Candlelight Shadow and Ye Yuse's line of sight. We passed through the forest and headed toward Dragon God Cave. Finding Prince Lin Qian and turning in the quest was more important. This was our true goal.
While I was on my way, I thought to myself. This trip to the Ruins of the Dragon's Domain seemed to have gradually turned into a competition between the top guilds of the China server. Everyone seemed to have realized that there were too many dangers and riches hidden in the Dragon's Domain, waiting for them to explore.
Candlelight Shadow clearly had the absolute advantage in killing the boss with Ye Yuse, a Charm Master. Charm Masters had very unique skills when it came to controlling bosses. They could petrify, stun, confuse, and greatly increase the party's healing time. They were very good at mana regeneration and health regeneration. I wondered what kind of terrifying existence they had killed to obtain a fire dragon mount. Once this fire dragon matured, Candlelight Shadow's strength would become even more terrifying.
… …
A few minutes later, we arrived in front of Dragon God Cave. The other readers looked normal.
Everything was the same. The Dragon Slaying Sword slowly floated in the air. Beneath the sword was a pile of corpses. Lin Qian's body was covered in sharp blades. She sat dejectedly on her knees. She had been kneeling like this for thousands of years.
Thud thud...
My Ghost War Boots crushed the skulls of the dead. I walked towards the pile of corpses and took out three Soul Essences from my bosom. Holding them in my palm, I handed them to Lin Qian and said, "Prince Lin Qian, according to your request, we have already killed Nuoding, Alleila, and Lin Gong. These are the Soul Essences that you wanted. Now, you can redeem them and free yourself from the abyss of self-blame and guilt."
"Ah …"
Lin Qian let out a deep breath and looked up at me. His murky eyes were filled with sorrow. He reached out and took the soul essence. He slowly stood up and said, "I … I can feel their soul power. My dear teachers, we meet again!"
After saying that, Lin Qian looked at me and said, "Young warrior, you have completed a difficult task. Come, this is your reward, and the only thing I can give you!"
Ding ~!
System Notification: Congratulations, you have completed the SS Rank Main Quest [Collect 3 Soul Essences], obtained 2.7billion EXP, 30000 gold, + 3 Luck, + 50000 Reputation, obtained quest reward: [Blood Oath]!
…
"Whoosh!"
Amidst the golden light, I leveled up to Level 224 and obtained 3 points of Luck. Not only that, but I also obtained a Blood Oath. What was that?
I opened up my bag and found a skill book. Looking at it, my face lit up with joy — — [Blood Oath]: Buffs a target, increasing their attack power by 33% for 30 seconds. Cooldown time: 60 seconds. Class Requirement: Priest. Level Requirement: 220. Fans of this book also like to read:
… …
I picked up the skill book and tossed it to Murong Mingyue. "Sis, this is the skill book you can learn. Don't forget to add this when you kill bosses or PvP. It increases your attack power by 33%, and skills that deal 100 HP will deal 133 HP instead. It's a very powerful buff …"
Murong Mingyue smiled at me and said, "Mn mn!"
It was at this moment we heard the sound of hooves behind us. We turned around and saw a group of Sky City players galloping toward us. There were about 40 of them, and their leader was a Level 218 warrior riding a Horned Beast Warhorse. This warhorse was unique to Candle Dragon, and it was none other than the guild leader of Pop Culture, Lonemoon Shadow!
"OMG, the people of Pop Culture are here too?!"
Lin Yixin blinked and flashed her Seven Star Veluriyam Sword. "It looks like a fight is inevitable. The Ruins of the Dragon Domain are about to fall into chaos …"
I grabbed her wrist and said, "Yiyi, don't be in such a hurry. We don't have to fight …"
"Oh?"
A few seconds later, Lonemoon Shadow and nearly a hundred players from Pop Culture arrived at the pile of corpses. He looked up at us and smiled. "Tsk tsk, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls and Snowy Cathaya are here as well. Thank you for leading us to the Dragon God Cave's coordinates!"
Then, Lonemoon Shadow turned to a magic knight behind him and said, "Contact Candlelight Shadow immediately and tell him that we've found the Dragon God Cave. Also, tell him that we found the Dragon Slaying Sword as well. Doesn't he need the Dragon Slaying Sword to complete his quest?
Come quickly, or we'll be ruined! Lu Chen and Lin Yixin are also here! "
"Yes, guild leader!"
When the vice leader of Pop Culture sent the message, Lonemoon Shadow raised his sword high above his head and shouted, "Tell everyone to come out and surround this place. We must get this Dragon Slaying Sword!"
… …
Clang!
I abruptly pulled out Coldness of the Nine States and stared at Lonemoon Shadow. I sneered. "What a joke. You think the Dragon Slaying Sword is yours just because you say it is?
Who do you think we are? Lonemoon Shadow, you should wait for your master to show up. Otherwise, your shrimp soldiers and crab generals won't be enough! "
"Bah, just wait and see!" Lonemoon Shadow endured for a moment. In reality, he was waiting for Candlelight Shadow to show up.
At this time, the vice leader moved next to Lonemoon Shadow and whispered, "Guild leader, the Dragon Slaying Sword is the sword of the strongest goddess in Spirit of Grief, Ice Orchid. It may not be one of the twelve divine weapons of Heavenblessed, but it definitely isn't bad. Maybe it can even be used by a player. Why should we wait for Candlelight Shadow to show up? If we wait for him, this sword will no longer be ours. Why don't we... strike first? With an ancient divine weapon like the Dragon Slaying Sword in our hands, we can make a name for ourselves.
Why should we continue to serve Candle Dragon? "The corner of Lonemoon Shadow's mouth twitched. His eyes were dazed and he seemed to be wavering. Just like the vice leader had said, everyone played the game to make a name for themselves. Since there was a chance to become a king, no one was willing to become someone else's subordinate. This was also why Blazing Hot Lips, The Monarch Descends, and Baidicheng had never truly merged with Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls.
"Pa!"
Lonemoon Shadow punched the back of his horse and gritted his teeth. "How many people do we have now?"
"A total of 374 people have arrived. Shall we act?"
Lonemoon Shadow chuckled. "Alright, brothers. Let's seize the Dragon Slaying Sword and establish the hegemony of our Pop Culture. It all depends on everyone's performance today. There seems to be a boss guarding the Dragon Slaying Sword, but don't worry. It's just a piece of trash on the verge of death. Everyone, let's kill it!"
The Pop Culture players were about to attack.
I hurriedly stood in front of Lin Qian and said in a low voice, "Fuck, protect Prince Lin Qian. He's the guardian of the Dragon Slaying Sword. He's very important. Everyone else, just watch!"
Lin Qian's slightly sinister laughter came from behind me. "Of course, of course I'm very important. Sometimes, in order to achieve a goal, a price must be paid!"
"Crack!"
The three Soul Essences were crushed. Lin Qian let out a loud roar and absorbed the energy of the Soul Essences. Her eyes turned blood red and she reached out to grab the handle of the Dragon Slaying Sword. With a sudden swing, the Dragon Slaying Sword directly swept across my back. I was caught off guard and the situation changed too quickly, so I took the hit directly!
"Bang!"
“1321987！”
A weak point attack on my back was just too scary. I felt like my back was being torn apart, and I fell from the pile of corpses and rolled almost a hundred meters away. He Yi, Lin Yixin and the other girls hurriedly chased after me. They knew that they couldn't fight the boss head-on right now, or they would die a horrible death.
"Little Cheat!"
Lin Yixin held me up. Jin gritted her teeth and said, "We were tricked. Lin Qian was just using us to find the soul essences. This animal, Alleyla loved him so much. He was so cruel that he devoured Alleyla's soul essence. Animal, animal!!"
I raised my head and used Coldness of the Nine States to stand up. I accepted Murong Mingyue's healing and glared at Lin Qian at the same time. "Bastard!"
… …
Lin Qian held the Dragon Slaying Sword in her hand, an ominous glint flashed in her eyes, as if she was possessed by something. Raising the Dragon Slaying Sword, she laughed sinisterly, "Hahaha, I've finally obtained it, the Dragon Slaying Sword is finally mine, Lin Qian's. Hahaha, limitless power is mine to use, the order and rules of this world will be remade by me. That's right, I lied to you all, I've let down the three teachers, but for this limitless power … I can pay any price.
… …
Below the corpse mountain, Lonemoon Ying pointed. "Kill, take the Dragon Slaying Sword!"
A group of Pop People players roared and charged. Assassins, knights, bards, and all kinds of classes rushed forward. They were too desperate to get this Dragon Slaying Sword. Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls had Coldness of the Nine States and the Mysterious Nether Bow, Warsky Alliance had the Immortal Blade, and Candle Dragon had the reborn Fire Dragon. Pop People had nothing. Their words held no weight.
On top of the mountain of corpses, Lin Qian's expression was sinister as she cackled, "Hehe, come, the Dragon Slaying Sword is very hungry, it needs to drink the blood of you ignorant people to be satisfied, come, come!"
A figure swooped down and pierced a Level 217 magic knight with the Dragon Slaying Sword, dealing over 1.94 million damage. The magic knight had a look of disbelief on his face. He had been instantly killed just like that. Lin Qian wasn't weak to begin with, and she became even stronger after obtaining the Dragon Slaying Sword. Against normal players, she was more or less one-shot.
"Furious Slash!"
Lin Qian raised her sword and unleashed a beam of sword energy. A dozen or so Pop People players collapsed to the ground, each of them taking more than a million damage. Lin Qian's damage was too high!
… …
"Fuck, what kind of boss is this? It's too OP, isn't it?"
Lonemoon Ying stared into the distance and said, "Fuck, why hasn't Candlelight Shadow brought Candle Dragon over yet? What is he waiting for?"
The vice leader said, "The assassin sent a message saying that Candlelight Shadow is about 700 meters away from here. He's observing the situation, and he seems to be waiting..."
"Waiting for what?"
"Waiting for all of us to die..."
"Fuck!" Lonemoon Ying shuddered. His expression was incredibly ugly.
