Chapter 31: Alone 8000

Red-black clouds covered the sky, and blood-colored light shot out from the cracks in the clouds, like a red sword, plunged into the Chronos Mountains.

Storms were brewing in the depths of the sky, thunder could be heard roaring through the clouds, the atmosphere was filled with the smell of sulfur and charcoal, and the smell of blood filled every corner of the earth.

The Chronos Mountains, which were not peaceful but barely peaceful, turned into a battlefield for invaders from other worlds.

It was burning, like a forest ravaged by a firestorm, the blackened trees crackled, and the entire ground was littered with pits of lava and the traces of acid corrosion, as rivers dried up, rocks turned into sand, and hot winds raged in mid-air, distorting the air.

In such a treacherous environment, Lisa was hurrying at full speed, and the girl used the remains of each tree and the surviving rocks as shelter to run on an irregular route.

Through the power of electric propulsion, using tiny electric current to stimulate muscles, the dragon girl can exert a power that is not inferior to ordinary monsters with her petite size, and with the sensing of strong magnetic fields, Lisa can also avoid the wyvern dragons, demons, and all kinds of strange flying vehicles in the sky.

Today's Kronos Mountains have turned into a battlefield for visitors from outside the world in just ten minutes, the moment the demon army descends, and the next two-legged wyvern began a fierce fight, acid breath and abyss spells flutter in the sky, the aftermath of dragon flames and blasphemous rays destroy the few intact lands on the ground, and from time to time you can see that the corpse of a demon or wyvern fell from the sky, the energy overflowed, and completely fell into a puddle of mud. And on the ground, the monsters that have gone completely mad due to their dangerous instincts are running away from the battlefield of these powerful outsiders.

Despite being suppressed as much as possible, the forest was destroyed by the aftermath of the battle, and the village was burned to the ground.

Thankfully, those strange golden flying devices didn't join the demons and dragons for the time being, although they were occasionally attacked, but most of the time they were just a touch away, they were flying around, collecting plants and monsters on the ground, and they could see the pillars of traction light falling, bringing panicked monsters, plants, or dragonmen into the cabin.

Lisa didn't have time to pay attention to this, and within ten minutes of her retreat, the girl had already heard several terrible screams nearby, some of which were familiar to herβ€”the newly awakened young witcher reserve in the village was testing nearby, and those screams should be their dying cries that were accidentally affected by the aftermath of the battle.

"Ah!! Help me! I-snap-"

The sound of bones being crushed.

It felt like she was on her side, and her hearing, which had been greatly enhanced by the electric current, had become Lisa's nightmare, and she could hear that the voice was owned by a peer of hers, and although the two did not have a good relationship, they were still among the people who could sit down and eat at the same table...... But now, this girl, who is still a friend, is completely silent after letting out a miserable scream, and is completely crushed.

"Don't think about the others, let's go, Lisa."

The girl's chest turned into an ornament, and the syndicate, who was ready for war at any time, angrily scolded: "This is the battlefield, you don't have time to sympathize with other people, and you can't help them!" You can only take care of yourself! ”

"If you want revenge, just wait for the future, since the First Legion and the Five-Colored Dragon Clan have invaded, then it must be a foregone conclusion that this world will turn into an abyss again, you have to adapt to this environment as soon as possible, and then grow up! You have more potential than I do, don't die here now! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I see, Mr. Syndicate......"

The fire demon's scolding woke up the girl, Lisa gritted her teeth, endured the grief and panic in her heart, and said with a little trembling, "But what is going on...... How did the mountain suddenly become like this? ”

"A few days ago, I was discussing with Sofina what she should do when she became a witcher, and she said expectantly that she wanted to hunt a crowned bird and make a beautiful dress out of its feathers, and I said that I wanted to explore further afield...... Sophia died, in an instant, how could it be like this? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Because this is the rule of the abyss, you dragonmen are too weak and discovered, so you can only let the strong invade. ”

"Really...... Is it too weak. ”

The sudden change in reality shatters Lisa's vision of the future in an instant, and the girl's optimistic plan for the future is brutally destroyed. After all, she was only a teenage girl, and ten days ago, she was still panicking that she couldn't awaken the power of the bloodline, even after being trained by the fire demon and getting the inheritance from the legendary powerhouse, her mind was still far from being able to withstand such an unexpected situation.

If it weren't for the Syndicate, who had been instructing Lisa's every move in a tough tone, shattering every time Lisa's confusion, the helpless dragon girl might have been completely crushed by this sudden situation.

(It's the Fire Naval Regiment...... Has the Demon King of the Sixth Abyss made up his mind to invade this world? The only good news is that they are not the only ones, there are other powerful forces that are competing. οΌ‰

At this time, the fire demon is trying to turn the thinking center, it was originally the type that doesn't like to think, but now it only has the core body left, and it can't be done without relying on the brain, the syndicate senses the surrounding situation through the magnetic field, racking his brains to think about how to break through surrounded by flying dragons, demons and strange flying vehicles, and return to the still hidden dragonman village. Finally, when the Firedemon was about to vomit blood, he finally found a safe path.

"Walk here, walk through the ashes of charred trees!"

The Syndicate whispered to Lisa, "There is an open area ahead, and only in this way can you avoid the eyes and ears of those demons and dragons...... Hurry up, there's no time! ”

"Okay, okay!" Lisa naturally didn't suspect that the Syndicate would have malicious intentions, but when she saw the ashes of the trees that had just burned to white ash not far away, she instinctively hesitated for a moment: "The temperature is more than several hundred degrees...... Can I do it? ”

"Nonsense, you're a pure-blooded dragon, and you've practiced electric current pushing, and it's already beginning to bear fruitβ€”do you think this inheritance I gave you will be useless to the point where you can't even withstand temperatures of a few hundred degrees?"

The fire demon urged: "Hurry up, there is a large group of demons coming behind us, they have the ability to see the heat of life, if you don't hide in the ashes, you will definitely be discovered!" ”

Although the demon is now at war with the Wyvern and the Golden Vehicle, and may not care about a single dragonman, the carelessness of handing over one's life to others is something that no madman would do.

Lisa knew that this was not the time for her to hesitate, so the girl took a few deep breaths to adjust her state, and then slammed into the ashes with all her strength!

At this time, in Lisa's body, countless faint currents began to circulate throughout her body, which was derived from the bloodline power in the dragon's body, and this bloodline power was quickly mastered by the girl's own will. It can be seen that countless faint currents wandering all over the body began to converge, and then merged into a thick and powerful energy, which operated violently in Lisa's body, and even overflowed the surface of the body, blooming into blue-blue arcs.

The whole body is wrapped in an electric arc, the cells in the body begin to rub violently, and the electric current begins to push the girl's body, producing all kinds of powerful abilities: no fear of high temperatures, no fear of electricity, strengthening the body, strengthening muscles, superhuman perception...... Lisa, who is propelled by running electricity in all directions, has surpassed most ordinary demon hunters in strength at this time, and can face off with many monsters head-on, even if it is a monster with a title, it can also rely on a sneak attack to kill with one hit.

Throwing herself into the ashes, Lisa immediately began to swim rapidly as if she had entered water, for her at this time, the hot earth and gravel around her body were the same as the water around ordinary people, which could be discharged at will, and only swim freely, and the high temperature ashes of hundreds of degrees were as the syndicate said, which could not cause her the slightest harm...... It was only then that Lisa truly discovered that she was no longer an ordinary dragon girl, but a real transcendent.

As long as she continues to practice the electric current push to the limit of this breathing practice, she will become the strongest demon hunter in the history of the dragonmen, and if she transcends this realm and reaches the realm above it, then she will become a powerhouse in the true sense of the word.

Only now, the girl didn't have time to think so much, she could already sense dozens of powerful electromagnetic fields behind her, which were terrifying beings that Mr. Syndicate called demons, they flew through the air with a roar, and pounced on a battlefield in the distance, and the powerful energy radiation made Lisa feel a tingle more than ordinary high temperatures, which also made her confirm the fact again, that is, her weakness.

It was only when the demons were gone that Lisa emerged from the ashes of the forest, feeling only warm and unharmed except for the blackening.

"Go on, Lisa, you can't count on the witchers in your village now, they can't protect themselves, let's go back to the village by ourselves first...... Tut. ”

To be honest, the Syndicate didn't think it was a good idea to go back to the village at all, and now it saw the situation in the Chronos Mountains very clearly, no place was safe, and compared to a single dragonman, the village was more dangerous because of the large target, no matter how hidden it was. Rather than obey his instinct and return to a familiar place, the fire demon felt that it was better to rely on Lisa's current strength to enter the depths of the mountain range and hide, after all, it could be seen that neither the demon nor the five-colored dragon wanted to destroy this world, but wanted to take it, they would not slaughter the natives, but assimilated them into a part of themselves.

In that case, isn't it all alive where you live?

It's just that it also knows that Lisa is still a little girl after all, and it is impossible to make such a cold-blooded decision, and it is good to go back and listen to these dragons who have been living in the mountains to summarize the situation, it feels that a race with such bloodline should not be knocked down so simply.

The Dragonman Maiden and the Fire Demon continued to sprint through the mountains, the speed of the two was very fast, they avoided most of the dead ends, the battlefield of outsiders and the ruins of the battlefield that were too dangerous, and in just half an hour, they had already returned to the dragonman village hidden in a dead corner of some terrain.

At this time, the dragonman village has been under martial law, wearing animal skin uniforms, carrying a big bow The dragon man demon hunter is hiding in every corner of the forest and the hills, nervously patrolling around, Lisa, who did not deliberately avoid the sight of these people, was naturally discovered by them, after a slight stunned, suddenly a demon hunter jumped out and went to pick up Lisa, while another demon hunter ran in another direction, as if he wanted to inform someone.

Soon, the dragon girl covered in charcoal and monster blood scabs was brought into the village by a nervous demon hunter from the same village, and she was greeted by a one-eyed middle-aged dragonman.

"Lisa?! It's great that you're alive...... What's wrong with you?! ”

Seeing his daughter who was covered in a mess and could smell the strong smell of blood, the one-eyed witcher was stunned for a moment, he hurriedly stepped forward, half-knelt down to check if there were any injuries on Lisa's body, and finally he was glad to find that the blood was all monsters, and his daughter had no wounds at all.

"Oh my God, Lisa, there's no news from the entire testing team, and I can't hear from you about something so big going on outside......"

Just hugging him, he couldn't help but tremble, and the dragon girl who was about to cry, and the one-eyed middle-aged man with a vicissitudes of life couldn't help but burst into tears, and there were obvious wounds on his arms and shoulders, most of which were bandaged, and it could be seen that they had encountered a battle.

But now is not the time to shout and ask for warmth, it is too late to continue to comfort his daughter, the middle-aged demon hunter stood up, he stroked Lisa's face, swept the dust off the girl's face, and he said in a serious voice: "Hurry up, go to the middle of the mountain range, and take refuge in the land of the ancestors!" Most of the people in the village have already left, and we are almost the last of them, but thankfully I waited for you...... Hurry up, those powerful monsters will be coming over soon, and their battlefields are moving fast! ”

"Okay Dad." Holding back her tears, Lisa, who finally found support, but couldn't vent, choked up and said, "Sophia is dead, everyone is dead...... It's all my fault, if I don't leave, I can take them away from the demons......"

"Don't be stupid, my good boy, you can't do anything, those creatures can see through the disguise of the best witchers, and you can come back alive because the ancestors and dragon gods have protected you."

The middle-aged demon hunter didn't care, he shook his head and said, "There is a shelter built by the ancestors in the middle of the mountain range, and this is the disaster recorded in the prophecy...... But the number of people in the shelter is limited, and if you go late, you will have to fend for yourself, so after a little tidying up, your batch will leave soon. ”

"Okay." Lisa nodded obediently, she pressed her chest, and asked with some confusion, "But what about you, Dad?" ”

"Daddy is going to break ...... Daddy is with you, and I will protect you! ”

The middle-aged dragon man hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and changed his words, he knew that his decision would be despised by many members of the demon hunting team after the scheduled break, but in order to ensure the safety of his daughter, he didn't bother to care about any prestige and popularity, after this disaster, God knows if the dragon man can survive, not to mention that there is nothing in this world that is more important than his daughter.

"I'll protect Daddy too!"

Hearing the middle-aged witcher's words, Lisa also cheered up, and she couldn't help but say, "Now Lisa is also strong...... I can help too! ”

"Know, know...... My daughter is a pure-blood who is rare in a hundred years, and she will definitely protect our ......"

The middle-aged witcher originally wanted to laugh, but halfway through the laugh, he couldn't help but feel a bitter ...... Since his wife was killed by a strange monster from the God's Desert, he has been hunting monsters wholeheartedly, venting his resentment, anger and self-blame, although it can't be said that he neglected his daughter, but most of the time he did not accompany her at home. At that time, he heard that his daughter couldn't wake up, but there was actually a little relief in his heart, because in this way, he didn't have to be a dangerous demon hunter, and he could live peacefully in the village.

But now, I don't know when, my daughter has grown up and has strength...... In such a dangerous situation, I can also say things like protecting my father.

Is this the time? Before I knew it, so much time had passed, and the once little girl had become a girl who could walk through the battlefield forest alone, and the daughter in her father's arms had become the one who promised to protect her father.

Without saying much, the middle-aged witcher took Lisa to the last group in the village to leave for the middle of the mountain range, ignoring the strange eyes of the dragons around him, he joined the demon hunters who escorted the team, and led Lisa forward, and the group followed a hidden forest path as fast as they could, approaching the center of the mountain range. The other witchers who had been patrolling around the village also gathered into a team, hanging far behind the team, ready to break off at any moment.

"Lisa, didn't you say when you were a kid that you always wanted to go out of the village to see? In fact, as a witcher, you may not be able to get far from the village, and this time, we will go to the burial place of our ancestors, which is located in the middle of the mountains. ”

On the way, the middle-aged dragonman looked at the forest that was constantly flowing backwards around him, and said to the girl with emotion: "This is already a region that many dragonmen will not be able to go to in their lifetime...... The living conditions of our dragons are so narrow that many of us will not be able to leave the village for the rest of our lives. ”

"yes, I know."

Lisa nodded. Mr. Syndicate had told her all these things, and the Firedemon had spoken in a disdainful tone about how narrow and inflexible the dragons' habits were, and told her many stories about the world beyond the world, the world that had been destroyed, and the world that was thriving. It also depicts many scenes that make the eyes of the dragon maiden shine: tall and imposing rock buildings, plains without deserts, frost-covered ice and snow lands, and a vast and boundless marine world.

Lisa had always wanted to see and see the world she had never seen before, out of curiosity and out of a desire to take risks. She had always wanted to leave the village and felt that she could give everything for it, but today, when she did leave existence and knew that there was a good chance that she would never return, never return to that cozy rock log cabin, Lisa's heart couldn't help but tingle a little.

But it doesn't matter anymore...... Because the father is by his side, and the family is by his side. At this most critical moment, when she was about to go to a distant place, she only cared about her father's safety.

The road is long and long, crossing many canyons and rivers in between, the village where Lisa and the others are located is located on the outskirts of the mountain range, and they are going to the center of the mountain range, everyone is moving steadily as fast as they can, because most of the team is ordinary people, many women and children will be left behind, and at this time, middle-aged dragonmen and other witchers will carry them on their backs. Fortunately, they were lucky enough to not encounter any demons or wyverns along the way, so in just a few days, they covered most of the distance.

At this time, it was the middle of the night, and countless gorgeous and spectacular flames could still be seen blooming in the dark night sky, and meteorites and dragon shadows could be seen shuttling between the clouds, the war was completely white-hot, demons, flying dragons and golden flying machines had been fully fired, and most of the main forces were fighting a decisive battle at the edge of the mountain range, and the group even saw in horror that a distant mountain peak collapsed in the huge roar, which was the result of the battle of the extraordinary creatures.

Most of the dragons fell asleep from exhaustion because of the whole day, only the witchers who awakened the power of the bloodline and could be awakened by the stimulation of the electric current were responsible for taking turns to be vigilant, and Lisa, who was propelled by the electric current, naturally did not feel tired, at this time she was leaning on her father's shoulder, quietly looking at the night sky.

In the night sky, there are countless stars twinkling, and the silver light becomes brighter with the large white light mist, and the village elders believe that the light and mist covering the sky is a call for disaster, but Mr. Syndicate says that this is an opportunity for all life in the multiverse, of course, for the weak, opportunity can also be a disaster.

"Is it a mistake to be weak......

The dragon girl thought about these questions, she always felt that it was difficult to agree with this statement, the strong should go to the showdown with the strong, why should the weak who want to live a good life be harmed? But the fire demon always told her that sometimes the strong did not deliberately want to harm the weak, and even took the initiative to avoid the weak, but when they really used their full strength, the aftermath of a casual blow could wipe out the entire dragon race.

"It's not wrong to be weak, but if you don't want to become strong and strong, then the existence of such a race is a mistake in itself."

The fire demon said: "Weak meat may not be strong food, but if you don't want to be the weak meat of the strong, you are destined to be eaten." ”

Lisa still couldn't understand this thought, but she vaguely understood, just like a lion wouldn't deliberately look for a rabbit to eat, because such a move would be a waste of effort, but this kind of ignorance, at least based on the fact that the rabbit was fast and vigilant enough. Otherwise, a lion can catch a rabbit with a single dip, so why not?

And just as she was thinking about these overly grand questions, and the girl was about to fall asleep, the light of the stars suddenly was obscured in the sky.

β€”β€”β€”β€” rumbleβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”!!!

Like thunder, but a hundred times louder than it, it seemed to tear apart the world The loud sound came from the very top of the heavenly dome, at this time, the entire dark starry sky turned into chaos, the blue psionic brilliance, the black abyss scorching breath, one black and one white, negative energy and ice power, the runes in the sky and invisible spiritual fluctuations filled the entire sky, dyeing it into an unbelievable color.

"Yes...... King! My lord, he's here, too! ”

Lisa felt the tremor in her chest, the Syndicate's trembling, and the fire demon looked at the sky, which occupied a corner of the firmament, like the sun, and said in a tone of fear and reverence, "He has come...... Decide the fate of this world, the real war begins! ”

"Whewβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”!"

In the distance, beyond the mountains, in the center of the God's Desert, a huge cyan blue current also lit up, and with the change of color of the sky, the dragon god on the earth was not to be outdone, showing its strength, it let out an extremely angry roar at the sky above the power of those who peeped at it and woke it up.

All the dragonmen woke up in an instant, because of the loud noise, and because of the trembling that came from the depths of their blood, they either stared blankly at the night sky that was already brighter than day, or at the flickering electric light in the distant desert.

Lisa's father, the middle-aged dragon man also looked at the night sky, he could naturally feel the pulse of the blood power, and also knew that this was a proof of their belief in the gods to completely wake up, he originally wanted to open his mouth to calm everyone down, since the dragon god had completely awakened, then the situation should be much better, but before he could say it, the middle-aged demon hunter couldn't help but change his face: "Those monsters are here!" ”

Hearing this, Lisa also turned her head suddenly, with the perception shared with the syndicate, the girl clearly felt that the demons and flying dragons who were originally fighting all over the mountain range, because the conflict between their respective leaders intensified, the battle became even more crazy, and there were just four or five demons and flying dragons not far away who were knocked away by their opponents, and they were rapidly falling near the place where the dragonmen were staying at night, they were seriously injured and in urgent need of energy healing, and they sensed that there happened to be such a batch of delicacies with strong blood energy around them, and they immediately roared and stood up, Rush towards the Dragonman team!

In order to compete for energy replenishment, but also to keep it from the enemy, these wyverns and demons treat the dragonmen's team as a meal.

"Let's go!"

Suddenly, the demon hunters who were on guard around them didn't care about hiding, but opened their mouths and roared loudly: "After the third team broke off with me, these monsters were seriously injured, we should be able to stop them!" ”

"The second team will come with me, and we will be responsible for stopping the monster that is attacking at eleven o'clock!"

"Fourth Squad ......"

"Ahh

It's time.

The middle-aged dragonman stood up, he picked up the big bow he put aside, picked up the quiver at his side, the man lowered his head, touched the girl's head, he looked at his daughter deeply, as if he wanted to carve Lisa's overwhelmed face into the depths of his soul, and then he turned his head, without saying a word, just like that, he took his weapon and strode away from his daughter.

Without any superfluous words, nor any superfluous movements, Lisa didn't react at first, and when she realized it, when she saw her father follow the other demon hunters to the sniper front, the girl immediately got up and prepared to fight with her father, but at this time, the fire demon relied on the spiritual connection between the contracts, forcibly controlled Lisa's body and turned her head, and left with the retreating army.

"Mr. Syndicate! What are you doing?! Give me back your body! ”

"Shut up, stinky little ghost, I don't want your father's efforts to be in vain and run for me!"

The fire demon didn't want to say much at this time, in just a few days, the middle-aged man had already told Lisa all the routes to the center of the mountain range, and he even secretly put his credentials in and out of the shelter into Lisa's pocket, it could be seen that this man had been prepared for a long time, but he was afraid of returning by himself, so he didn't say a word when he left.

is a weakling, but also a father.

Lisa was like a machine, controlled by the fire demon to run, the power of the electric current was running in her body, the speed was even a few points faster than the average witcher, the girl ran like this, running, until the fire demon finished controlling and continued to run, because she was familiar with the route, she instinctively followed the road, towards the center of the mountain. Before she knew it, Lisa was already in tears.

She could still hear the sound of battle in the distance, the bowstring shattered, the arrows broke through the air, the demons and the wyvern roared in pain, the strength of the powerful demon hunter was not inferior to some low-level demons, and the elite old hunter relied on the ambush, numerical advantage and terrain to compete with the members of the demon army, not to mention that the other party was seriously injured. So there was still a glimmer of hope in Lisa's heart, and she could still sense the witcher's magnetic field.

But soon, as the magnetic fields of the demons and the black dragon dissipated one after another, the magnetic fields of the demon hunters also decreased rapidly, and with the magnetic field of the last demon fleeing in panic, none of the four demon hunting teams that went to snipe were able to move, they just held their last breath and confronted the attacking monsters, and after the enemy left, these fragile magnetic fields began to dissipate one by one.

Crackling. It was the sound of an electric current exploding, the magnetic field that had been spent with each other for so many years that it dissipated like smoke, and Lisa could even smell the smell of blood lingering on the tip of her nose.

The girl's heart froze. Lisa knew that the man would never come back.

Now it is only herself, no matter how far away she goes, finds the grassland and the sea, and finds the monster that killed her mother to take revenge, no one will be happy, worried, surprised and crying.

She was on her own.

Therefore, there is no turning back on this road to a distant place.

Above the sky, the battle between the legendary powerhouses continued, and the starry sky was also churned into chaos, and the amazing energy radiation even replaced the sun, illuminating this small world.

No one cared, and since then, a girl has been alone.
