Chapter 359 - 300: Curtain Falls, The Flower Knight’s Request
"Winged lizard! Dare to come down and take my sword?!"
The Evil Wolf General slaughtered the surrounding monsters, a furious battle cry erupting from the helmet’s gap, the sound waves soaring to the clouds, full of unabashed provocation and battle intent.
At the moment of hearing the sound.
Three pairs of cold Dragon Eyes simultaneously locked onto the tiny yet exceptionally eye-catching figure on the ground.
Not because they were angered by the provocation of a lowly creature, the Ignas Dragon Group was long impervious to such trifles. Their gaze was due to a mutual agreement.
This Rune Knight displayed strength far beyond the ordinary leader, with a threat level extremely high. If left unchecked, he could cause immeasurable damage to the clan army of the Molten Iron Tribe. Besides, the Dragon Race did not shy away from warrior-against-warrior, general-against-general combat; unrestrained slaughtering of minions was boring to them.
"I’ll handle him!"
White Dragon Trish’s eyes sparkled with excitement, eager to volunteer.
The fighting power the Rune Knight exhibited was formidable, cutting through those lower creatures like slicing melons, but it didn’t change the fact that he was still human. At present, he hadn’t shown himself to be much greater than the dragons.
Trish believed her ecological tier was above the Rune Knight’s, naturally leading to an overwhelming advantage.
Whoosh—!
She suddenly folded her wings, diving towards the ground like a frost-tipped arrow at the Rune Knight.
On the ground, facing the White Dragon diving with a cold, piercing wind pressure, Rune Knight Luo De took a deep breath.
His battle armor covering his body, the Giant Sword in his hand, the Giant Shield on his back.
The runes engraved on all his equipment and weaponry suddenly lit up, transforming into a dazzling fiery hue, like burning metal.
Flame Rune!
Mighty physique!
Together with all his equipment, Luo De’s body began to expand, becoming gigantic.
A torrent of fiery flames burst from his skin, engulfing him. The Giant Sword in his hand also turned scalding red, as if freshly drawn from a forge.
In an instant, he seemed to transform into a Flame Giant, not an ordinary human.
His gaze was murderous, muscles tensed all over, tightly gripping the flaming Giant Sword, aiming to deliver a fatal strike at the lowest point of the White Dragon’s dive, at worst to severely wound it and completely cripple the dragon’s combat capability!
However, an entirely unexpected event left the Rune Knight utterly stupefied.
Just as his aura soared wildly, transforming into a Flame Giant through the Giant Rune and Flame Rune.
The White Dragon, initially poised to crush him, didn’t hesitate for even a second. It suddenly veered its wings to one side, agilely drawing a swift arc in the air and... retreated without looking back.
"That was close! This guy was hiding his strength all along!"
"Suddenly elevating to this ecological level, I’m probably not his match."
White Dragon Trish’s heart still fluttered as she beat her wings to gain altitude, secretly glad that her reaction and intuition were sharp enough. Otherwise, diving blindly might have led to a severe downfall.
A thunderous roar, filled with dissatisfaction, rumbled from Red Dragon Samantha: "White-scaled fool! Retreating without a fight after being scared by a human, aren’t you ashamed of losing face for our Dragon Race?!"
Not ashamed—White Dragon Trish responded internally without hesitation, preserving life was much more important than face.
"This human is indeed not simple, don’t be careless, let’s go together and kill him first!"
Iron Dragon Solrog’s calm yet murderous voice echoed in the hearts of the two dragons.
The next moment, Iron Dragon and Red Dragon, like two deadly blades of a guillotine, charged simultaneously from different directions towards the ground where the Evil Wolf General stood.
Seeing them all taking action, White Dragon Trish immediately felt her ecological level seemingly rising along, filling her heart with courage.
She let out a resounding roar and joined the assault once more.
Under the deep night sky, the three giant dragons hung like the guillotine of judgment in the firmament, their cold eyes locking onto the flame-bathed figure on the ground.
Iron Dragon Solrog made the first move.
It folded its massive wings, and its huge body tore through the airflow, mimicking a family member’s meteor-like assault from memory, using its weight as a weapon to crash down mightily.
Red Dragon Samantha followed closely.
She flew low and fast along the ground, not directly spewing her fiery Dragon Breath, instead tracing a path with her body, drawing a wildly burning flame ring on the ground, trapping Luo De in a furnace-like deadly heat.
White Dragon Trish hovered high in the sky, ice-blue cold light surging in her throat, Frost Breath ready to seal off any escape route.
Faced with such an inescapable joint attack, ordinary warriors stood no chance.
But the Evil Wolf General was a formidable warrior who climbed out of heaps of corpses and seas of blood, having faced death countless times, no mere trivial soul; in a flash, a strategic response formed.
Boom—!
Iron Dragon crashed down like a real meteor, the ground caving in and collapsing on impact, layers of soil and stones erupting into the sky.
Yet, at the split second before the impact, the Wind Rune on Luo De’s war boots flickered, dramatically boosting his speed, allowing him to narrowly evade the destructive center strike.
Using the momentum, he leaped into the air, and the Giant Shield in his hand, initially ablaze with flames, instantly transformed into a deep ice-blue.
