The situation is not good.

Whether it is Rhodes or Carter, they all have the same idea at this moment, this Wind Snake Lord is really difficult to entangle, although the floating ship is descending rapidly, and it can already see the forest not far away, but if it continues like this, I am afraid that the floating ship will disintegrate in the air before it has time to fall to the ground!

"Drink!"

Carter flew forward, and the dual swords in his hands slashed through the air with two cold lights, stabbing straight at the giant claws of the Wind Snake Lord in front of him, but just before he was about to succeed, the Wind Snake Lord suddenly opened his mouth, Carter only felt a fishy smell coming to his face, and he didn't even have time to confirm it, so he rolled directly on the spot, although he avoided the Wind Snake Lord's bite, but it also announced the failure of this attack. But just as Carter stood up and tried to pull out the space, the Wind Serpent Lord seemed to think that this little bug was too annoying, and suddenly struck at him with a claw. Carter, who didn't expect the Wind Snake Lord to let go of the hull, was a little caught off guard, and he subconsciously raised his twin swords to resist, but he was still hit away. After sliding on the deck for a few meters, it hit the mast and stopped.

It's not going to go on like this.

Rod frowned, and then he looked at the anxious girl who was standing a short distance behind him.

"Lijie, I need your help!"

"Huh?"

"I'll distract it, and when it attacks me, I want you to cast a guardian shield on me!"

"What a shame!"

Hearing Rod's words, Lijie nodded without the slightest hesitation. She clasped her hands tightly, and a bright, soft light appeared on her body. Seeing this scene, Rod didn't say anything more, he just turned his head, then raised his long sword, and suddenly wanted to stab forward.

Shattering Blade.

Shine, the snow-bright blade of light once again slashed through the air, hitting the wind snake lord's body hard, although this time Rhodes did not consciously condense the light blades, but let them scatter the attack, so the power is smaller than before, so it was not able to penetrate the wind snake lord's scales again, but the scattered attack tore a few distinct blood marks on the wind snake lord's wing membrane, which made the wind snake lord can't help but scream,

"Sizzle!!"

The Wind Serpent Lord's action was abrupt, and it quickly turned its head, its two bright red eyes burning with angry flames, staring at the young human on the deck, and then, it opened its mouth again and pounced on Rhodes.

The Wind Snake Lord's speed was indeed not slow, but in the blink of an eye, Rod could see its open blood-red mouth appear above his head, which also made Rod tense his nerves, this was a very risky choice. He deliberately did not use Shadow Flash, but kept moving at a relatively slow pace, just to lure the Wind Snake Lord to take the initiative, although this would be very dangerous, but when the enemy was attacking with all his might, its weakness would also become obvious - this was the opportunity that Rhodes was trying to seize!

The Wind Serpent Lord's bloody mouth was close at hand, and it only took a few seconds for Rhodes to swallow it in one gulp.

However, it still failed to achieve its purpose.

Because at this moment, a faint, glowing white egg-shaped barrier suddenly appeared on Rod's body, resisting the Wind Snake Lord's sharp teeth, although the Wind Snake Lord's movements slowed down, and in the next moment, it completely bit this barrier, but it didn't bite anything.

Because just as the shield of guardians was shrouded, Rhodes had already activated the shadow flash.

Like a ghostly shadow, he flashed through the Wind Serpent Lord's bite, and then raised the pure white sword in his hand and slashed through its throat.

This is where the Wind Serpent Lord's weakness lies, and it is also the most vulnerable part of his body, but before it was all neck down, so it was difficult to attack. And this time, the Wind Serpent Lord, who was enraged by Rhodes, completely let go of the attack, and because of this, it no longer had time to protect its most fatal weakness.

“———！！！”

A shrill scream rang out, and the Wind Serpent Lord raised his head as if he had been electrocuted, and at its throat, foul blood spurted out and spilled all over the deck. Then, as soon as its body went limp, it fell heavily on the deck, and there was no more breath.

And at this moment, Rod also saw a deep green, which was rapidly expanding in front of his eyes. …,

"Boom !!"

Then, he only felt a sudden shock of the ship, and his body seemed to float into the air in an instant. Then, Rhodes' eyes went dark, and he completely lost consciousness.

When he woke up again, the first thing he felt was a biting cold wind.

"I'm ............"

When you open your eyes, the first thing that catches your eyes is a beautiful night sky. Unlike normal nights, the nights here are very "bright", with soft moonlight shining down, reflecting the shadows of every leaf on the ground. In the night sky, in addition to the stars, there are also bands of light that emerge in it, and they condense and converge into a bond of light, extending in all directions.

This is exactly the characteristic of the Dragon Soul Continent——— according to the legends of ancient times, this was originally a chaotic and dangerous space. Then, five dragons arrived, and they used their bodies to create heaven, earth, and everything in this otherwise empty space. In order to suppress the evil chaos, the five dragons used their bodies to create the world realm, and they also put their souls into it to suppress the evil chaos power and protect the order of this world realm.

Each dragon's dragon soul has its own unique form, just like the sky above Rhodes' head now means that this is the protected area of the dragon soul of light. Its characteristic is that even in the dark, there is light that shines brightly. In contrast, the protected area of the Dark Dragon Soul, where, even during the day, it was dark, and there was no shadow of light in sight.

Because of this, the distribution of species on the continent is also quite regular.

In the area guarded by the dragon soul of light, you can see all kinds of green plants growing luxuriantly. However, in the area of the Dark Dragon Soul, only the noctilucent plants can be seen. Of course, this characteristic also affected the distribution of the various races on the continent, and most of the humans gathered under the protection of the dragon soul of light, followed by the elves and angels. And the dark races such as the undead, vampires, and nightmares naturally became the inhabitants of the Dark Nation.

There are no gods on this continent, and if you have to say it, then the five dragons who created heaven and earth are the objects of their worship. Again, this includes the bearer of the Dragon Soul.

Souls have their cores, even the dragons that created heaven and earth are no exception, and their soul cores will be lodged in a certain person, and this person can adjust the dragon soul's protection of the continent by using this power. For example, if chaos is a virus, and the power of the dragon soul is a firewall, then the person who holds the soul core is equivalent to the CPU, as long as the CPU can still calculate, then the firewall will not fail, and it is enough to completely resist all the power of chaos outside this world. And the holders of these soul cores are also regarded as the heirs of the dragon's soul.

But this kind of thing doesn't mean much to Rhodes now.

Rod slowly stood up, and the sharp pain swept through his body, especially the injury on the left side of his chest, which now seemed to be even more serious. Before, Rhodes could barely move with his left hand, but now he can't even move, even if he just moves his fingers, he will feel as if his entire arm is soaked in fire.

However, this put Rhodes at ease, and if he felt it, it meant that his arm was still there, and if he didn't feel anything, it would be a big problem.

Looking up, with the help of the bright moonlight, the first thing Rhodes saw was the wreckage of the floating ship, surrounded by tall trees that showed that they were in the forest. And then it becomes clear what happened. Although Rhodes killed the Wind Serpent Lord, the already fragile floating ship was destroyed as it landed, unable to withstand the violent impact.

At this moment, there was silence in the forest, and even the sound of insects could not be heard, and Rod looked around, only to see that on the ground, there were blood stains and corpses everywhere, both wind snakes and humans. And not far from Rod's side, a petite figure was lying there, motionless.

"Lijie!"

Rhodes hurriedly walked to the girl's side and lowered his body to take a closer look at her condition, fortunately, although the girl looked pale and her hands were clenched. However, her breathing was fairly even, and it didn't take long for the girl to open her eyes at Rod's call. …,

"I ...... I'm ........."

Lijie opened her eyes blankly and stared at the man in front of her, and after a while, she seemed to regain consciousness, and it seemed that her fall was not light.

"Am I alive?"

"That's right."

Seeing Lijie answer his words, Rod was relieved, and the girl slowly stood up, she shook her head, biting her lip, as if she had not fully recovered. But for the girl, there are more important things to do at the moment.

"What about everyone? What about the regimental commander? How are they? ”

“……………”

Rhodes didn't answer, but neither did Lijie need to, because at this moment, she had seen the scene around her clearly. The small face, which was originally pale, was extremely stiff at the moment.

"How so......... Crete! Shire! Head! ”

The girl rushed to the corpses of the mercenaries and called their names desperately, but no one responded. But Lijie didn't give up, she squatted down, carefully examined the mercenary in front of her, and after making sure that the other party was dead, she didn't cry bitterly, but gritted her teeth and ran to the next person.

However, the efforts of the young girl did not pay off as they should be.

She couldn't do anything in the face of those already cold, stiff corpses. Although Lijie has been insisting, when she saw Carter's figure, she couldn't help but sit on the ground with her feet weak.

The mercenary captain who was still in high spirits before has also turned into a cold corpse at this moment. Half of his body was stuck in a gap in the deck, and a broken stake pierced his lower abdomen.

"Regiment...... Regiment Commander ......"

Seeing this scene, Lijie sat on the damp grass in a daze, the flame of hope had been completely extinguished from her eyes, replaced by dazed and sad. At last, the girl lowered her head, and although she did not speak, the slight sorrow brought up by the night wind reached Rod's ears.

Looking at the slightly trembling shoulders of the blonde girl in front of him, Rhodes could only stand silently behind her, but he couldn't say a word. In the battle before, because of the stakes of life and death, he didn't care about these at all. But now, when everything is over, looking at the corpses everywhere around, Rod still can't help but feel complicated. It's not that he hasn't seen a corpse, but after all, it's just a simulated scene in the game, in the game, people can be resurrected with spells when they die, or the soul runs away from the corpse, but this is not a game, people won't be resurrected when they die, let alone run corpses.

To be dead is to be dead.

At this moment, Rod seemed to recall that night seven years ago, he could only watch, but he could not do anything - death passed by him unswervingly, but he could not even stop it.

Just as he was about to say something to comfort the girl in front of him, suddenly, a faint cry for help came.

"Hey......... Anyone? Help........."
