"Are you saying that you want to steal the four Holy Giant Dragon eggs that Mingyu values?"
"Of course. Pulling the teeth out of a tiger's mouth is the only way to show the true colors of a hero.
Murong Mingyue giggled as she stared at me. "Come on, the guardian of the four dragon eggs is Strella, the sixth of the Nine Monarchs of Purgatory. He's a Divine Rank boss for sure. We can't even beat Michael, so how can we possibly beat Strella? Just show your heroic side to Warsky, Laughing At The Heavens, and the rest of them …" Murong Mingyue chuckled softly as she stared at me.
I hugged Coldness of the Nine States and laughed softly. "We can't boost the morale of others and diminish our own. It's not our style to enter a treasure mountain and return empty-handed. We know that the four Holy Giant Dragon eggs are in the Dragon God Cave, and if we return now, we won't be able to sleep for many days. Don't you think so, Eve?"
He Yi nodded. "Yes, it's better to try than to give up!"
Murong Mingyue spread her hands. "Do whatever you want. I'm just here to heal you!"
"Mn!"
… …
The plains in front of the Dragon God Cave were littered with corpses. Countless soldiers of Sky City and Violet Empire had died here. Right now, Mingyu and Michael were heavily injured and unable to continue fighting.
"Cough cough …"
Mingyu coughed violently a few times, and blood spurted out of his mouth. Michael supported him and said, "My lord, are you sure you're okay?
Are we … are we going to enter the Dragon God Cave? "
Mingyu nodded. "Yes, let's go in. That old bastard Strella was just an elder before I left the Dragon Domain, but he became a Dragon God later on. Don't worry, he won't dare to do as he pleases in front of me. The Dragon God Cave is the best place for us to escape to. Fans like to read:!"
"Yes, my lord!"
… …
The Dragon God Cave was filled with light, and Michael and Mingyu disappeared from our sight with a leap. Faint roars of evil beasts came from inside the cave. There was no need to think about it. There had to be something terrifying in the cave. Maybe Strella wasn't the only Divine Rank boss!
Clang!
Karinshan sheathed her sword, held her wound, and slowly walked forward. She knelt on one knee in front of Dragon Knight Karan's broken body and asked with concern, "Ancient Dragon Knight, are you alright?"
Karlan was lying in a pool of blood. He slightly opened his eyes and smiled. "Karinshan, I know you. You are... you are the successor of Fei Ya and Annie, right?"
Karinshan nodded.
Karan let out a long sigh. "It's a pity that my life has reached its end, and I've already become an undead creature. I can no longer serve the Silverymoon Alliance. If Lady Binglan was still here, perhaps … perhaps I wouldn't have ended my life like this …"
Karinshan reached out to support Karan's head and said resolutely, "Don't worry, Karan. I won't let you die just like this!"
Karinshan placed a hand on Karan's chest. Pink energy flowed into the wound and stopped the bleeding.
"This... Your Highness, this is the Soul Return Curse. It will damage your cultivation!" Zi Yan shouted from behind.
Karinshan's face was covered in sweat. She shook her head and smiled. "Don't worry, it's just a few decades of cultivation. But it's worth it if I can save Karan."
Karinshan shuddered. "Your Highness, I'm an undead... I'm a dead ghost. Will you still accept a warrior like me?"
Karinshan nodded. "Yes. Everyone else, read it as normal!"
Karan closed his eyes and trembled all over.
… …
I pursed my lips and said, "It looks like Karinshan is determined to take Karan away. It's true that Sky City lacks a top-tier general like Karan, and he's the leader of the Dragon Knights. He can greatly strengthen Sky City's NPC army. Karinshan's move is beautiful!" Violet pouted at Lin Yixin.
Lin Yixin pouted in Violet's direction. "I saw that Sophia wanted to recruit Karan too, but I was too slow. Karinshan got there first. Queen Sophia must be pretty pissed right now …"
Sophia sat down on a giant rock in the distance. The wound on her abdomen was too serious, and it was rare for her to be able to hold on.
Xue Wei held the Dragon Slaying Sword and knelt in front of Sophia. "Your Highness, are you alright?"
Sophia nodded. "Don't worry, I won't die. As long as the Dragon Slaying Sword is in my hands!"
"Mn!"
Xue Wei gripped the Dragon Slaying Sword tightly.
Right at that moment, a sudden change occurred. With a "hua" sound, a figure that was close to nothingness flashed past me like lightning, almost brushing past me as it headed straight for Xue Wei. A black spear shook and directly struck Xue Wei's wrist. Immediately after, the Dragon Slaying Sword that was stabbed into the rock had already disappeared. Following that grey figure, he entered the forest in the blink of an eye!
"God damn it!"
Xue Wei stood up and stomped her feet in anger. "What... what is that thing, so fast. The Dragon Slaying Sword was stolen by him, I... I will immediately take people to chase after him!"
Jumping onto her horse, Xue Wei gave an order. Thousands of Violet Undead Cavalry galloped away. The other readers watched normally:
… …
"Fuck, even NPCs can be stolen?" Murong Mingyue was shocked.
Beiming Xue said, "Who was it, to be able to steal the Dragon Slaying Sword from Xue Wei's hands, and it was almost an open robbery. So scary..."
I gripped Coldness of the Nine States and gritted my teeth. "Other than that Thief God level Scavenger of Dragon City, who else could it be?
Fuck, I didn't think that this guy would appear again and steal the Dragon Slaying Sword. With his speed, I can't catch up even with the Ancient Divine Dragon. Xue Wei and the others definitely won't stand a chance. "
Lian Xin said, "Fortunately, our quest is complete. Next is the NPCs' business, it doesn't have much to do with us..."
I nodded in agreement. "Yes, let Xue Wei do what she needs to do..."
… …
Karinshan had already ordered the troops to set up camp in the valley outside Dragon God Cave. She ordered loudly, "Stay here and do not enter Dragon God Cave without permission. We don't know what it is like inside, so we cannot act rashly. Ziyan, send out scouts to investigate the composition of the Dragon Mountain Range and analyze the auras inside Dragon God Cave. Also, notify the Sword Art Guild of Sky City and have them send four Sword Saint experts to Dragon God Cave. We must have their help to kill Strella!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
It didn't take long for the NPCs from Sky City to build a temporary fortress at the edge of the Dragon God Cave. Our equipment and potions were severely depleted, so we needed to replenish our supplies. After we entered the encampment and repaired our equipment, we were ready to explore the Dragon God Cave.
Xing Yun, Xue Ye, and the others felt a bit helpless. There were no natives here, so we couldn't even buy potions. In this case, we might face the threat of a supply problem when we entered Dragon God Cave.
… …
"Alright, it's time to go. Fans like to read:!"
After I repaired my equipment, I brought the Phantom Wolf King with me and said to the girls, "Once we enter the Dragon God Cave, no matter how strong Strella is, we're going to challenge him. We're going to scout ahead and wait for Li Chengfeng, Gui Guzi, Chaos Moon, and the others to arrive. Once we have enough people, we're going to start pushing Strella!"
The girls smiled and nodded. "Mn!"
Xinran was standing on the grass with her Dragonbone Spear in hand. Behind her was the Winged Silver Dragon and the Headless Horseman Bloodblade. She slowly walked up to me and said, "Big bro, I need to stay here and protect Sophia, so I can't enter Dragon God Cave with you. But if you run into danger inside Dragon God Cave, I will definitely go there to find you. I won't let big bro face all the danger alone!"
I nodded and patted Xinran on the shoulder. "Don't worry, big bro is different from you. I'm a player, so dying once is fine. Xinran, you don't need to worry too much about me. Even if I can't kill Strella, I can still escape unscathed. At most, I'll drop a few levels …"
Xinran looked a bit confused. She looked at me with big, watery eyes and said, "I don't know what big bro is talking about, but I will listen to big bro. In that case, be careful, big bro!"
"Mn, don't worry!"
After saying goodbye to Xinran, our party of seven moved to the front of Dragon God Cave. In the distance, Warsky Alliance, Candle Dragon, Flowing Clouds, Blazing Hot Lips, White Bird and more were all waiting for us. No one dared to enter Dragon God Cave rashly because this map was rated SSS, meaning that the mobs inside would be incredibly fierce. Everyone hoped that someone would be the first to enter and become cannon fodder because they understood that Strella was a boss that couldn't be killed in a short amount of time. The best outcome would be for both sides to take damage while they reaped the rewards.
I waved Coldness of the Nine States at Warsky and said with a smile, "What's wrong, Warsky? You don't have the courage to challenge Strella now that you have the Immortality Blade?"
Warsky hugged his Longevity Saber and smiled. "I'm going to wait for the archers in my guild. I'll only enter after I've gathered a group of at least a hundred eighth transformation archers. You go ahead first. I wish you luck in your exploration!"
I smiled. "Then I'll see you in Dragon God Cave. Don't forget that swords have no eyes, and I may be swinging my sword in the dark inside Dragon God Cave. Fans of books like to read:!"
Warsky tacitly said, "Haha, don't worry, I can protect myself. You take care too, don't get killed by Candle Dragon too early!"
"Haha!"
I smiled and walked at the front. At the same time, I whispered to the girls, "I'll enter the map first. Wait for me outside. I'll notify you when there's no danger."
Beiming Xue nodded. "Mn. Be careful, big bro!"
Pure Love swiftly gave me a new buff, and my HP rose to almost 2.7 million. After the series of fierce boss battles outside, our party's overall equipment had risen to a whole new level, especially my Defense. My actual Defense was over 600,000, and my Magic Resist was also shockingly high. This was the biggest reason why I wanted to take the risk and challenge Strella. With Dragon Suppressing Armor, Nine States' Chill, and Fire God's Helmet, how could I not challenge my own limits?
… …
Faint flames could be seen inside Dragon God Cave, and the cave entrance was shrouded by a barrier. I couldn't tell what was on the other side of the barrier, so I had to enter.
Stepping on the Ghost War Boots, he suddenly rushed behind the barrier.
Swhoosh!
My eyes lit up and I felt a burning sensation around me. I had already appeared in a very wide map. In front of me was an endless abyss. Looking down, I couldn't see the bottom. As expected, this was a deep pit. Around the deep pit, there was a stone path that circled around the abyss. It was about thirty meters wide and looped around, layer by layer leading to the bottom of the Dragon God Cave.
Beep!
