"The little guy you are talking about, do you mean me?" Jiang Han's eyes were as deep as the abyss, deeply locked on Delinkovart. His face gradually condensed into a layer of frost, but his calm words revealed a hint of coldness. It was a heart-stopping coercion, as if everything in the world was trembling under this majesty.
Aware of the terrifying pressure that surged like a raging wave, Delinkovart's body shook suddenly, as if he was hit by an invisible huge wave. In an instant, his eyes surged. The look of fear that could not be concealed was a tremor originating from the depths of the soul.
"You...what are you..." Delinkovart's body couldn't help but tremble. At this moment, he seemed to be bound by some unknown force. He even had an instinctive reaction to escape back to the Coiling Dragon Ring. They were all restrained, and looked at Jiang Han again with eyes full of unconcealable fear.
“In the 4280th year of the Magnolia Calendar, you had a fierce battle with the Holy Domain Magister Hamlin, but unexpectedly there was another Holy Domain warrior hidden in that battle who attacked you. In the end, Although you are defeated, you still choose to seal your soul in this dragon ring. "Jiang Han's tone was calm, but he revealed an unquestionable determination. His words were like a key, opening the dusty door of memory.
"How could you know! Could it be... are you really the owner of this ring!" In addition to fear, Delinkovart's face was filled with unbelievable shock. That battle was five thousand years ago, and given Hamlin's character, he would definitely not make the ambush with another Sanctuary strongman known to the public. Therefore, the truth about that battle theoretically only exists between the three of them.
However, the person in front of me actually revealed the secret!
Delin Cowart secretly speculated that perhaps this person really had an indissoluble bond with the Coiling Dragon Ring, and some mysterious connection allowed him to gain insight into the battle that year!
What is even more shocking is that judging from the aura emanating from the other party, it is obvious that it has transcended the scope of the holy realm and has most likely entered the realm of gods!
“You will understand my identity in the future.”
Jiang Han glanced lightly, and then withdrew the pressure that enveloped Delinkovart, who was immediately relieved. , let out a long sigh of relief, as if being pulled back from the edge of life and death.
"Why did you give this ring to me?" Lin Lei swallowed and looked at Jiang Han, feeling increasingly nervous in his heart. Although he is still young, through the conversation between the two of them just now, he has vaguely realized that both of them are super beings who have lived for five thousand years!
"I have set foot in this place before, and I realized that I am destined to you, so I intend to accept you as my disciple." Jiang Han crossed his arms and looked at Xiao Linlei with a gentle smile, with a deep light shining in his eyes.
“Accept me as your disciple?” Lin Lei was stunned, bit his lip, and after thinking for a moment, he replied: “We still need to wait for my father to return before making a decision.”
Just now At this time, Little Wharton staggered in, as if he might fall down at any moment, with a look of panic on his face.
“Monster?”
Lin Lei glanced at Jiang Han, hurriedly crawled out from under the table, and picked up Wharton. At the same time, the ground shook again, accompanied by regular roars, as if a giant creature was slowly approaching the Baruch family's mansion.
The Baruch family is located at the easternmost end of the town. The east side is adjacent to the rolling mountains, and between the peaks, there is an open space.
At this time, many residents holding weapons gathered around the open space. They stared into the distance with vigilance, and the atmosphere was tense and dignified.
"Brother, look! There is a big monster over there!" Wharton was carried out of the mansion by Lin Lei, and his chubby little finger pointed in the direction of the mountains.
It was a monster that was twenty to thirty meters long and covered with fiery red scales. Each scale shone with a cold metallic sheen, making it intimidating.
"It's so big! Is that really a World of Warcraft!"
Other children in the town could not restrain their curiosity and ran out of their homes one after another, gathered around Lin Lei, and cast their eyes unanimously on the giant monster in the distance.
"The seventh-level monster Velociraptor! How could it appear in such a remote place!" Delinkovat recognized the identity of the creature, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Level 7? Then isn't it even more powerful than Uncle Hillman!" In Linley's mind, Hillman is the strongest warrior in the town, unmatched by anyone.
"Why are you little guys running out? Didn't I tell you to stay at home!" Suddenly, Hillman's scolding came from the distance, and he was walking quickly.
"Uncle Hillman, just let us take a look here. Everything will be fine." A little girl hugged Hillman's arm and said coquettishly.
"Okay, let me show you. Remember, no one is allowed to leave my sight!"
After Hillman ordered the children, he turned to look at Jiang Han: "You're not from this town, are you? I've never seen you before."
Drinkvot quietly returned to the Coiling Dragon Ring. Even though he was in the ring, he could still sense everything in the outside world.
"Uncle Hillman, he is passing by and wants to take me as his disciple." Lin Lei hid behind Hillman, still wary of Jiang Han.
"Accept you as a disciple?"
After listening to Lin Lei's words, Hillman looked at Jiang Han carefully, his brows gradually tightened. Just as he was about to ask, fierce battle sounds and soul-shaking roars suddenly came from the direction of the mountains.
“Look, the battle has begun!”
“There seems to be someone on the back of that monster!”
“Oh my God! That person can tame a seventh-level raptor! How strong must it be! "
...
The children exclaimed again and again, and even Hillman stared with bated breath, concentrating on the distant battlefield.
There were seven people fighting against the Velociraptor. Judging from their fighting postures, there were five warriors and two magicians. The leader was a strong red-haired man, riding a black iron bull.
“Give up the useless resistance.” The figure on the back of the raptor spoke calmly, his voice cold and indifferent.
“Fight to the death!” Seven people responded in unison, their voices firm.
"Then go to hell!"
The magician on the back of the raptor shook his head slightly, then stretched out his right hand and patted the raptor.
"Roar——" The raptor looked up to the sky and roared, opened its huge mouth, and sprayed out a blazing pillar of flame, rushing towards the seven people.
Chichichichi!
Wherever the flames passed, the land was instantly scorched, and some areas were cracked due to high temperature expansion.
“No! The fire has spread, retreat quickly!”
“Oh my god! If you are touched by this flame, it will be instantly reduced to ashes!”
Hogg and others were the first to bear the brunt. Their expressions changed suddenly when they saw this, and they quickly retreated to the rear.
Soon, the team led by Hogg retreated to the location where Jiang Han, Hillman and others were. An unknown storm seemed to be about to sweep in.
"Retreat quickly! They are coming!" This urgent warning was like a sharp sword that cut through the tranquility, penetrating every corner of Wushan Town. At the edge of the clearing, Hillman's eyes suddenly tightened, as if he had caught some ominous omen. His body tensed instantly, and with an unquestionable determination, he led the frightened children behind him to quickly retreat. Their footsteps were chaotic, but they revealed an instinct for survival.
Boom! This sound was like the roar of an ancient giant beast, spreading from the foot of the Warcraft Mountains. The fierce battle was approaching Wushan Town with unstoppable momentum. The roar of the raptor was like thunder, shaking the houses on both sides of the town's streets. The sound of broken window glass was intertwined with the wail of broken wooden beams. The whole town seemed to be tightly held by an invisible hand and trembled.
In an instant, the life-and-death battle between the seven-man team and the raptors had spread to the center of the town. In the aftermath of the battle, houses were turned into ruins amidst the roar. On the stone pavement, the traces of expansion and explosion due to high temperature were shocking, like scars on the earth. The air was filled with the smell of smoke and burning, and the screams and cries of the town residents intertwined to form a symphony of despair. Under the leadership of Hogg, people looked frightened and fled toward the west of the town. Everyone's face was filled with fear of the unknown fate.
"Dance of the Fire Serpent!" With this cold spell, the raptor's offensive came to an abrupt end. The magician on its back seemed to break free from the constraints of gravity, rising into the air with its arms in the air. Drawing mysterious trajectories, like an ancient dance, elegant and deadly.
Immediately afterwards, seven fire snakes tens of meters long condensed and formed in front of him. They were lifelike, their scales shone with a strange light, and their huge bodies were hovering in the air, as if they were messengers from purgatory. Half of the sky was dyed red. At that moment, the temperature in Wushan Town rose sharply, and the heat wave rolled in, as if the entire town had been plunged into a huge furnace.
"Dance of the Fire Snake, eighth...level eight magic!" Hillman's face turned pale in an instant. He murmured in disbelief. Looking at the old man again, in addition to fear, there was more depth in his eyes. Deep fear. Eighth-level magicians are such noble beings on this continent. Their status is far superior to soldiers of the same level, because they are like moving death storms on the battlefield!
There are only a handful of eighth-level magicians in the entire Finlay Kingdom, and their names are often listed alongside legends. Hogg frowned with a heavy look on his face, "How could an eighth-level magician appear in our remote town?"
Xiao Linlei looked up at the seven behemoths in the sky, with a strange light shining in his eyes. , "Father, I may not be able to become a dragon-blooded warrior, but I can become a powerful magician like him!"
This scene made everyone in the town fall into shock, fear and confusion. Despair is like a shadow, hanging over everyone's heart.
“No, run away!” The leader of the seven-man team seemed to feel the destructive power contained in the fire snake, and issued a heartbreaking warning.
"You can't run away, accept the baptism of death!" The old man's voice was cold as ice, piercing people's hearts, like a sharp blade, making the team members' hearts tremble.
Amidst the roar, seven fire snakes rushed to the ground like divine punishment from heaven. Suddenly, the town was plunged into a sea of fire, with flames rising to the sky and mourning everywhere. A purgatory on earth was staged here.
"Lord Hogg, our home...is gone." The residents standing on the edge of the town looked at the raging flames, and felt an indescribable sadness in their hearts.
“Ah——” The fire snakes seemed to have a will of their own. They quickly locked on the target, opened their bloody mouths, and pounced on the team members. Shrill screams came one after another, seven fire snakes wrapped tightly around the seven people, and the fire of life was extinguished in an instant.
"Dead, all... all dead!" Looking at the seven charred corpses, the residents of the town felt their throats go dry. They looked at the eighth-level magician on the back of the raptor in horror. It is a deep fear of unknown power.
The ground trembled again, and within a few breaths, the raptor led the old man to the corpse. "What a waste of time." The old man glanced at the corpse contemptuously, and with a wave of his hand, a purple diamond with a dreamy and brilliant halo flew out of the leader's corpse - the Depero Shadow Diamond.
"It is indeed the Depero Shadow Diamond. This trip is worthwhile!" The old man played with the gem in his hand, and his laughter was filled with pride. Then, his eyes turned to Hogg, Hillman and others, his eyes seemed to be able to see through everything.
"Whose territory is this?" the old man put away the gem and asked calmly.
"Great Master Magician, Wushan Town is my territory." Hogg took a step forward and saluted with clasped fists respectfully.
The old man expressed his willingness to use the gold coins on the corpse as compensation for the town's losses, which made the gathered residents relax a little, thinking that the crisis had been resolved.
However, the old man's eyes suddenly fell on Lin Lei, and he frowned, "Huh? Little guy, what is that in your hand? Give it to me."
Lin Lei held the Panlong Ring tightly, He firmly rejected the old man's request. When the old man heard this, his face darkened and he snorted coldly, "I have never been able to get what I want!"
"Lin Lei, don't be ridiculous! Give the ring to this great magician quickly!" Master!" Hogg and Hillman also realized the extraordinary power of the Panlong Ring and quickly scolded Lin Lei.
"Dad, Uncle Hillman, this ring does not belong to me, and there is Delin living in it..."
"What a verbose brat!" The old man looked impatient, and said With a cold snort and a wave of his hand, a fire snake suddenly fell down.
"Great Master Magician, he is only a child, I will give you the ring right now..." Hogg looked at the swooping fire snake, his face changed drastically, full of panic. Even seventh-level warriors could not resist the attack of the fire snake. If it really fell, the consequences would be disastrous.
But the old man ignored Hogg’s plea and remained firm.
“Cut with a hundred swords!” Hillman stepped forward, jumped into the air, unsheathed the long sword on his waist, and slashed at the fire snake with decisive momentum. The sword energy surged, but was swallowed up by the fire snake in an instant. Hillman was hit hard on the ground, leaving a series of deep holes.
"Uncle Hillman (Master)!" civilians and children shouted one after another.
“You’re just an ant, how dare you overestimate your own capabilities!” The old man looked down upon Hillman in the pit with an arrogant attitude.
The fire snake continued to swoop down mercilessly like the scythe of death. The residents' calls for help were full of despair. The high temperature caused their skin to bleed. The children were so scared that they collapsed on the ground and cried bitterly.
However, just as the fire snake was about to swallow Linley, Hogg and all the residents, a bright fist mark rose into the air from the crowd, shattering the huge fire snake with a devastating force and turning it into pieces. They are spots of light all over the sky, dissipating in the wind. (End of this chapter)
