7. Dying Dragon

"This is a real big guy! And voila, it breathes fire! ”

Death Goblin Buddy. Moore circled around the behemoth on the beach with a group of troll walking dead sailors, the goblin philistine's eyes full of gold coins, and he seemed to see a limitless business opportunity in the dying red dragon in front of him.

"Dragon scales can be made into scale armor, dragon blood can be used to make potions, dragon tendons can be used to make strong bows, dragon bones can be made into magic staffs, dragon eyes can be used as magic ornaments, and the most useless dragon meat will become the most sought after food for those nobles..."

"Ha, I'm going to get rich!"

No one paid any attention to the goblins' fantasies, and the red dragon that fell on the beach hated the smell of death, struggling to move its neck, which had been nearly blown in half, and used the dragon fire that erupted from its nostrils to banish the dead goblins like flies.

Buddy. Afraid of dragon fire, Moore fled far away, but in his eyes, the dying dragon in front of him had turned into a pile of gold coins.

But the real threat didn't come from the goblins, but from the two blood mages who looked at it with the eyes of the test specimen on the beach in the distance.

The dragon was the same red dragon killed by the griffon knight Alfonso's death raid, and it crashed on the beach at the edge of the battlefield, beside it was the orc dragon knight who had broken his neck, and the bastard died quietly before the death knights arrived.

This was probably the only thing that made Augustus Terraz feel good during this terrible disaster and war.

Auguste Terraz, the name of the red dragon, is full of the strange naming habits of the dragons, very obscure, and difficult to pronounce correctly if you are not familiar with the dragon language.

It is an adult red dragon, one of the guardians of the Red Dragon Queen, the Oath of Life Bound Alexstaza, and perhaps at some point in the future, it will be lucky enough to become the queen's consort, maintaining the balance of life in this world in a more honorable capacity, but the nightmare that began 3 years ago completely shattered all this.

The Orcs have found the Demon Soul, an evil artifact of ancient times, an evil weapon specially made for his fellow citizens by the Guardian of the Earth, Nesario, who fell for unknown reasons during the war 10,000 years ago.

As a result, it betrayed, and the dragonlords were unable to resist the evil artifact, and the blue dragon was nearly wiped out, and the other dragon legions were also devastated, but in the end they paid a terrible price and repelled the black dragon king and his black dragon legion, but the name of Nesario has become taboo, and the dragons have used the name "Deathwing" to describe it, and since then, the dragon has been hidden from history.

The Red Dragons were ordered to guard the Demon Souls, so after sensing that the artifact had been touched, Augustus Detraz followed the Red Dragon Queen and immediately set off from the Ruby Sanctuary to the Red Ridge Mountain to check it out, but they fell into the dastardly trap of the orcs, and after the Skullcrusher Nexus used the artifact to control the innocent Red Dragon Queen, these powerful dragons had to serve the orcs.

At first, Auguste Terraz and the other dragons were not willing to submit to the evil and savage orcs, but the dastardly orc warlock whipped the queen's soul with an artifact, and after hearing the queen's terrible cries, the dragons had to intervene, and the red dragon army could easily destroy the entire orc army, but they could not do that.

Necruz kept an eye on their movements, the artifact in his hand did not leave his body at all, and with a single command, the soul of the Great Queen would be irreversibly damaged, which the Red Dragons could not bear.

In this way, these proud and powerful creatures were reduced to the prisoners of the orcs, and the power that was supposed to protect life was used to destroy life, and many dragons could not bear this brutality of betraying their mission, and lost their souls in the rebellion, and became outright killing machines, but Auguste Detraz did not give in... Even though it can't end the nightmare.

Now, it's going to die, after a vile massacre, maybe that's the punishment, it's the punishment for going against its mission, alas... Queen, Queen is still trapped in that fortress by those dastardly orcs.

And just as the dragon was about to take a breath, a flash of light suddenly lit up in his closed eyes, and Tyrion stood beside the dragon's head, reaching out to open its eyes, and the Death Knight looked at the already dim yellow snake pupils, he shook his head, and whispered in Auguste Detraz's ear:

"It's a shame you're hopeless, Dragon... Interested in making a deal with me? ”

The dying red dragon heard this cold voice, it smelled the smell of death that it hated the most, but it could not resist, it did not want to answer, at this time, the dragon was already overwhelmed by the pain and remorse surging in its heart.

Seeing that the red dragon was unresponsive, Tyrion shrugged:

"You see, I know what happened to you and your queen, I know the terrible situation the Red Dragon Legion is facing, and I know what the orcs did with their demonic souls..."

"Wow"

This sentence made the dying red dragon open its eyes violently, and it moved its neck with difficulty, spreading its wings with the last of its strength, letting its flesh and blood splash everywhere, and also lifted Luminas who was standing on it to the ground, and the grizzled Death Knight lady scolded and grabbed her weapon and was about to rush up, only to be stopped by Celent and Roglio.

"Where did you know... The name? ”

The red dragon's vocal cords have been blown apart, this is Augustus Terraz used a special way to transmit his voice directly into Tyrion's spirit, just from the tone of his voice, you can judge its weakness, but seriously, this red dragon's Salas elf is really good.

The dim yellow snake eyes stared at Tyrion, and the red dragon said weakly:

"The orcs call it the Dragon's Soul... Only you, only you said its true name, how do you know, the dead. ”

"It's... You don't need to know. ”

Tyrion moved his wrist, even if the behemoth in front of him was lying on the ground, it was more than 4 meters high, the real adult dragon was not comparable to a weak young dragon, don't look at this dragon is already back to the light, if it really starts to go crazy, a photo is estimated to be able to ignite Tyrion's body, although it is useless for the Death Knight.

"You just need to know that I can help you, Dragon, I can help your queen get out of the Demon Souls' control, and I know how to destroy it... Maybe in this world, only me and Deathwing know! ”

The red dragon ignored the Death Knight's big words, it didn't care either, it stared at Tyrion, and after a few seconds, in the sound of dragon's blood dripping, it whispered:

"Are you sure you can help us? Although you are our most disgusted deceased, if you do help the Queen, you will receive the friendship of the Red Dragon Legion, believe me, the dead, that is a glory that no mortal can imagine. ”

"I'm not interested in glory, dragon."

Tyrion took a step back, tilting his head and looking at the red dragon in front of him, a grim light flashing in his eyes:

"I'm more interested in you... You're dying, you know that, and you hate orcs too, so why don't you cooperate, I'll give you a second life with your soul and your dead body..."

"Shut up!"

The red dragon scolded: "This is a desecration of life! ”

"But then you can be part of the rescue of the Red Dragon Queen, my dear dragon..."

Tyrion interrupted Auguste de Traz's rebuke, his voice low and hoarse, filled with a dark temptation:

"Is that all your loyalty to your queen is all about? The way is right in front of you, and you give it up because of some boring tradition, and watch your queen suffer, while you are freed from death... Do you really think that the appetite of the orcs is just your queen? You're wrong! Dragons, don't forget what's in the Demon's Soul, conquering the Red Dragon is just the beginning, the Blue Dragon, the Bronze Dragon, the Green Dragon... None of this can escape the clutches of those orcs! ”

"Think of that terrible future!"

Tyrion snorted coldly:

"Do you really think you still have a choice? You might say that the all-knowing bronze dragon will one day come to save Alexstasa..."

The Death Knight's voice suddenly became brutal:

"Stop dreaming! The group of bronze junks who will only live by the indestructible stereotyped dogma of the timeline, even if it is the end of the world, they will only accept it with their eyes closed, and they will not lend a hand! Sober up, you're on your own! Dragons, you'll have to figure it out for yourselves! ”

The dying red dragon fell silent, Tyrion's eyes narrowed, and he added another fire.

"Also, do you really think that you can find your hidden demon soul by relying on savage orcs? Don't be silly... Now, 10,000 years later, Deathwing has reappeared in the world, and it wasn't the orcs who found it! That's what Deathwing gave them! And you, you don't know anything about it... What stupidity! ”

Auguste Delaz's mind was already confused by the impending death, and it tried every means to refute Tyrion, but it couldn't refute every single one, and everything the Death Knight said was beyond the Red Dragon's thinking, and if even a tenth of what he said was true... It's enough to turn the dragon legion upside down.

"I... I..."

The red dragon hesitated to make up his mind, and Tyrion seemed disappointed, turning around and leaving without looking back.

"I can't even do this kind of self-sacrificing to save the world, dragon, it's really gone... Look at the way you look now, it's really a disappointment for Tyr. ”

"You know even the great Tyr... Who are you? Death Knight! ”

Auguste Detraz asked with difficulty, and Tyrion snorted:

"You don't need that, you just have to tell me, do you promise, or don't you promise? Do you just die a senseless death, or do you want to get a second chance after you die, and save your once-beloved queen and your fellow citizens... In my opinion, this is a question that does not need to be thought about at all. ”

Tyrion waited for the red dragon's answer, and after nearly 30 seconds of silence, the red dragon let out a mournful roar, the strength in its body could no longer support its body, and it fell to the ground, its dim yellow snake eyes staring at Tyrion:

"Good! I promise you! ”

"But you must find a way to rescue my Queen! It's an oath... I want you to swear by your soul! ”

A beating light swirled around the Death Knight, he knew it was the Red Dragon's spell, and the purpose was to make him make this oath, this is a magical world, and in this world, some oaths cannot be made casually.

However, the Death Knight did not have any psychological pressure, he looked at the red dragon in front of him, and his ice blue eyes blinked:

"Well, I swear, your queen will definitely be rescued, and in 5 years..."

The light on the Death Knight flickered, the pact was established, and a strange force bound his soul a little, making it a little heavier.

At the moment when the oath was established, August's eyes also closed, it gave up all resistance, Tyrion waved his finger, and the blood mages Severn and Ottem quickly stepped forward and set up a psychic circle to extract the dragon's soul.

Glokush stepped forward and whispered:

"Is it really worth it? For the sake of this necromantic dragon, he made such an oath..."

"It's okay, Black Hand."

A strange glint twinkled in Tyrion's eyes, and he looked at the red dragon in front of him, and he whispered:

"I only said that its queen would be rescued, and I didn't say that I was going to save her myself... Rest assured, everything is under control, besides, you start to deal with the corpse of this dragon now, remember, necromantic dragons don't need flesh and blood, every bit of flesh and blood must be removed, only the skeleton with the inscription carved to carry their soul, the inscription will be taken care of by Severn and Ortem, it may take you 3-4 days to complete this..."

The Death Knight hesitated for a moment and looked back in the direction of the southeast:

"Just taking advantage of this time, I'm going to go out and meet in the Burning Plains in 4 days, stay safe, don't clash with the Alliance Tribe, Glokush, when I'm away, you and Rogge will lead everyone, be optimistic about Luminas, her recent state is not quite right."

"Hmm"

The orc death knight nodded, and after a moment, he asked again:

"Are you serious about what you said to this dragon?"

"Huh? Which sentence? ”

"Sacrifice yourself to save the world..."

"Don't be stupid, only a fool like the Red Dragon would believe this argument, if saving the world requires sacrificing the life of an innocent ranger who has no quarrel with the world, then the world is not worth saving at all! The next time someone is trying to persuade you like that... Then he drew his knife and cut off his tongue. ”
