Monsters Will Die if They Are Killed

The purpose of the Ancestral Dragon Church's coming is actually very simple.

Because the previous battles between several Dragon Ball holders were too huge, almost everyone who pays a little attention to this information now knows that the battle for the Dragon Balls, which has not happened for eight hundred years, has now begun again on this continent. .

The ice-free river is almost cut off, the land within nearly ten square kilometers has been swept over, and the poisonous breath of the big snake that still remains in the sky are all forces that even an elite ordinary person cannot deal with. .

Although there were many tourists who came because of the news that there might be a Dragon Ball holder in the North, but when they really encountered such extraordinary violence that could wipe out the city, they were absolutely stunned. Most people will just choose to leave immediately.

According to the young priest Vika, the leader of the Church of the Ancestral Dragon, the Lord's Mansion and the Ancestral Church, which nominally manage the order of the North together with the Maia family, should work together to maintain order in the city at this time - —In the next week, more than hundreds of thousands of non-resident people will leave Maia City, and more extraordinary people from all over the world will rush here.

"A large number of extraordinary beings will make the city extremely dangerous. We must cooperate to maintain order in the city."

"So, I suggest that the Lord's Mansion should share intelligence with the church and try to prevent those extraordinary beings from doing whatever they can in the city."

The young priest's tone was polite, and although there was no flaw in his expression or posture, everyone knew that the church, which usually stayed aloof from worldly affairs, suddenly took the initiative, and must have an ulterior motive.

"You're right." Although Lord Maia looked cold, he also knew very well that what the other party said was indeed the truth.

No matter where the transcendent is placed, it is a big bomb to the ruling class. No one knows what those guys will do when they go crazy, and Maia City is his property.

"Specific cooperation matters will be discussed with you later." Sitting in his chair, Lord Maia suddenly felt a little tired, and Priest Vika stepped back knowingly.

He dismissed the other attendants and stayed alone in the study. The middle-aged nobleman closed his eyes and meditated. He suddenly felt deeply powerless.

——Whether it was the mysterious person who gave him the Dragon Ball, Su Zhou who acted on his own, or the sudden appearance of these Dragon Ball holders who were powerful enough to destroy the city, as well as the numerous extraordinary beings, they all made him I felt confused.

These forces are beyond his control and cannot be rejected. Facing these guys, he, the northern emperor who can selectively disobey even the orders of the imperial family, does not have any extra majesty.

Was it really the right choice for him to rashly choose to get involved in the battle for the Dragon Balls?

"At least...the Dragon Ball is not in my hands now."

Suddenly, with a wry smile, Lord Maia comforted himself in a self-deprecating way: "It's exactly what the mysterious man said - it's really a good thing that the Dragon Ball is not in my hands."

And just when the lord was worried about the extraordinary beings in the city, the extraordinary beings still in Maia City were actually worried and hesitant.

Most of the extraordinary beings who target the Dragon Balls actually don't know how powerful the dragon is - the last battle for the Dragon Balls was eight hundred years ago, and the Kelba royal family would never fight for the Dragon Balls unless necessary. Show the power of the dragon inherited in your bloodline.

Most of the extraordinary beings who came here with a sense of luck and were led by the fearless emotions of the ignorant have now retreated in their hearts after witnessing the terrifying power of the dragon. After all, one attack can cause the entire land to tremble slightly, which is obviously not something ordinary extraordinary people can resist.

If the Dragon Ball holder can be found, some of the more powerful extraordinary beings may be able to fight with their own methods, but if they face Shenlong, they will definitely not be able to defeat them.

But here comes the question - how to find the Dragon Ball holder?

At this moment, a disguised Dragon Ball holder was walking among the panicked people in Maia City, entered a tavern, and ordered a glass of wine and a bowl of mutton soup in a familiar manner.

The owner of the tavern is a veteran who participated in the Elf War more than 20 years ago. He was drafted into the army at that time. As a result, during the famous Battle of the Flesh Mill in the Battle of Silent Forest, he stepped on an elf's vine trap and broke a leg. After the boss returned to his hometown, he couldn't do manual labor or work as a worker because of his disability, so he opened a butcher stall to sell meat. He also provided the hot soup skills he had learned in the army and sold some drinks. Unexpectedly, he was selling meat. The business was not booming, but the mutton soup was more famous, so I simply switched to the catering business.

Drinking the familiar taste and feeling the strong and fresh taste, the bounty hunter who had turned into a long black hair picked up the Northland liquor on his side and took a sip. He looked like a normal man. But diners.

Originally, the image of the hunter with short white hair that he always displayed to the outside world was to deepen other people's impression of this feature, to facilitate his disguise and sneak in, and to confuse his eyes. In addition, he had used some specific techniques to cover up some of the same deliberate features on his face. The characteristics he displayed ensured that no one would notice at the first glance that he was the bounty hunter.

"Have you heard? Dragon Balls and Shenlong really appeared!"

"How could you not have heard of it? It is said that the water in the upper reaches of the Kobol River was contaminated by the venom of the dragon, and several villages in the lower reaches fled for their lives!"

"It's not safe in the North. I plan to go out for a while to avoid... Oh, these people just grab the Dragon Balls. Why do they have to come to us..."

Listening to the news in the tavern, the hunter put down his wine glass and took another sip of mutton soup. He shook his head slightly: "Jörmungandr's poison is indeed powerful. Even gods can be killed, but it can last for less than a minute at most. After that, it’s just pure pigment, and if you drink it in large gulps, you’ll get diarrhea at most.”

Thinking of this, just when the hunter raised the spoon and was about to take another sip, an inexplicable shock appeared in his spiritual world.

It was hunger—never-ending hunger.

In an instant, in the eyes of the hunter, the world around him changed... The people who were drinking and eating around him seemed to be fragmented and turned into countless divided pieces of sweet flesh and blood. Outside the street, the little girl was walking under the leadership of her parents. Their family is like a sandwich, exuding the delicious aroma of meat like a good steak.

And it's not just people. The hunter gritted his teeth, his throat rolling, because everything that entered his sight became extremely delicious in the eyes of the man. The table was like biscuits, the walls were like cartilage, and even the spiritual power in the air exuded a The peculiar fragrance made him want to open his mouth and swallow everything, even the whole world, into his belly.

"enough."

Lowering his eyes, the hunter raised the glass wine glass in his hand and drank the spirit in it. He bit off a piece of glass from the wine glass, grinding it with his tongue and palate with enough strength to crush steel. Silica debris.

After swallowing this ball of inorganic powder into his belly, the hunter's expression gradually returned to calm. He connected with the soul of the giant snake entwined with him and scolded indifferently, suppressing the huge appetite and madness coming from the other party: "endure."

[Unable...to endure...] And the giant snake roared in the soul space with almost no rational voice: [Odin...the gun of the world tree...eat him, eat him! 】

"I say, be patient."

The soul of the giant snake is huge and violent, but the soul of the hunter is calmer and stronger. After some soul wrestling and comfort, he calmed down the angry giant snake soul again - fortunately Jörmungandr has no wisdom. , coupled with the dragon ball, otherwise, let alone suppression, the hunter felt that he would not be able to make this dragon snake hear his words.

Pay the bill and leave, and the hunter leaves the tavern.

The Dragon Ball holder who had fought against Su Zhou returned to Maia City because he had sensed that there was a Dragon Ball holder in Maia City before.

That was probably not long after the last dragon was summoned. The hunter relied on his experience and instincts honed in the war for many years. He noticed that there were less obvious fluctuations that seemed to be hallucinations, coming from somewhere in Maia City. Come.

If he hadn't encountered other divine dragons on the way to test and fight, causing him to temporarily change his plan, otherwise, the hunter would not have met Su Zhou at all, but would have sneaked into the city along the river to look for traces of the possible Dragon Ball holder.

war.

And just as the hunter was on his way to where the fluctuation was, he couldn't help but think of this word again and the dragon he was fighting against.

Shenlong, who saw through his essence and life experience at a glance, proposed to himself that he would fulfill his wish as a condition for peacefully handing over the Dragon Ball.

That's not a lie.

With his experience as a hunter, he could tell that the other party was true to his word and would not go back on his word. He was a powerful divine dragon with good intentions towards humans - and, according to the ability to control the wind and thunder, he had the ability to throw According to the legend recorded by the Thunder Spear, the hunter can be sure that the opponent should be the divine dragon 'Zhu Zhou' who once turned thunder into a spear and killed the immortal demon emperor of another world.

Many people only know a little about Zhu Zhou. At most, they know that there is a magic sword in his tail that can kill people. However, only those who have really studied mythology know that the weapon originally used by the dragon was condensed from the sky. 's spear.

This is basic mythological common sense, but the public is not clear about it. In order to cope with the Dragon Ball War, hunters have supplemented this knowledge and know many common misunderstandings.

Zhu Zhou is indeed a kind-hearted dragon. If it were for other things, the hunter would be willing to believe him.

However, no matter how strong or kind you are.

In the final analysis, these summoned dragons do not exist in this world.

This is true for all the dragons and snakes summoned by the Dragon Balls. In the final analysis, they do not belong to this world and are destined to leave.

In this case, they are absolutely unable to change the world and create a new order.

"So, you can't fulfill my wish."

Talking to himself, the hunter turned down the streets.

On the streets, the density of pedestrians has been greatly reduced. Most people left Maia immediately, while a small number of people who could not leave temporarily stayed in restaurants and hotels to wait.

Eight hundred years ago, the royal family of the Kaaba Empire made a successful wish and received the destiny. They swept through many city-states and foreign races on the continent, established a great empire, and drove many other intelligent civilizations into a desperate situation with a dangerous environment.

However, eight hundred years have passed, and the empire has begun to decay, but the alien races have not yet been wiped out... Even in the latest aggressive war with the southern elves, the empire, which had an absolute advantage in technology, did nothing more than abandon many corpses and fight with the opponent in the Silent Forest. Sign the armistice.

Zhu Zhou said that he could see the curse on himself... that was indeed not a lie. How could there be less resentment on my body? Any veteran who can survive the Meat Grinder Battle has his hands full of blood.

However, it is the job of soldiers to kill hostile soldiers, and I don't think there is anything wrong with this.

What really makes the hunter fall into memories is the comrade who fell in the war.

"I can't survive. The poison has spread throughout my body. It's useless even if you chop my legs... just kill me." This is my old captain, who was poisoned by the mysterious elf poison. It can't kill people, but it can kill people. It will gradually turn people into a vegetative state almost like Alzheimer's disease.

In the early days of the war, there was no antidote. Most of the injured chose to commit suicide, or asked their comrades for help to avoid suffering the chronic torture of memory loss and mental death.

"My waist was broken... It hurts, it really hurts... Give me a shot, please..." This was his sworn enemy in the army, the thorn in his side that he had been fighting against during the training camp. He stepped on the elf's plant bomb, and his entire lower body was chopped into pieces by the whirling blades.

Because the pain-sensing nerves were strengthened dozens of times by the toxin, before he could help him out, he had already lost his mind due to the excessive pain... Death was coming so quickly.

"Huh...ah..." This was a new soldier he led. He fell into the elf's trap and his chest was pierced by a cursed wooden thorn. He couldn't speak before he died, but the hunter could still remember that. His face was extremely desperate, and then slowly turned into a face that wanted to die.

"Ahem...what's your expression? Come on, please, haven't we agreed a long time ago that whoever is poisoned by those blood-burning poisons with pointed ears will be rescued!" This is their partner, they are Cooperating all the way, we survived the long war and finally came to the final battle of Silent Forest.

And at the end of the battle, he was poisoned by the blood-burning poison of the Elven Guards. The violent poison was said to be able to burn the flesh and blood of the poisoned person, and then turned into pure poisonous gas, which continued to spread and infect others.

But the reason why the other party was poisoned was to help him block the arrow... It was because of his carelessness that he let his partner die.

Elves rarely kill people directly, but they have countless ways to make life worse than death. Fighting guerrillas with them in the forest requires dealing with the malicious intent of the entire forest.

Poisoning, traps, cold arrows, guerrillas, landmines and miasma... Hunters will never forget the years of killing enemies in war and liberating their comrades.

Especially, the confusion of being the only one left alive, and the deep feeling of guilt.

Resent the elves? Indeed, they were resentful at first, but weren't they the ones who took the initiative to invade? It is natural for the elves whose homes have been invaded to defend themselves - treating them as objects of resentment will make even their comrades shake their heads.

so.

The real crime is this decadent empire that needs a war to divert domestic conflicts.

What is truly sinful is this society that cannot keep its people fed, thus creating conflicts.

What is really evil is this world where the nobles own everything, the people are in danger, and the soldiers still have to sacrifice their lives to fight for the desires of the nobles.

"Days of glory? Humph."

Recalling the grand propaganda made by the generals during their speeches, the veteran just narrowed his eyes slightly and couldn't help but sneer silently: "How can a country that doesn't even pay full pensions have people loyal to it?"

The reason why he became a bounty hunter was because he relied on the bounty to help the relatives and children left behind by many of his comrades.

The Dragon Ball was a family heirloom given by the widow and parents of a certain comrade in return for his care over the years. Of course, she didn’t know it was a Dragon Ball. She only knew that such jewelry was very precious. She, a widow, took it out. It will only cause trouble, so it is better to give it to other strong people as a thank you gift.

From then on, the ambition to change the world began to burn in the hunter's heart.

Make a wish - the most direct way to change the world!

Just as the original city-state system was too outdated and was crushed by the feudal monarchy system of the Kaaba Empire, now, with more than two billion residents in the empire, its system has been outdated for a long time...

It's time for a new and advanced system to emerge to change this decadent world.

So, hunters need this desire.

And this wish, except for the legendary ancestral dragon, no dragon or snake can realize it... Although Zhu Zhou is powerful, it is not possible.

At this moment, Jormungandr's huge appetite surged in again, stopping the hunter in his tracks - once again, the world became delicious.

Jormungandr, who responded to the summons instinctively without any desire, simply wanted to 'eat'.

This pure and simple desire is like a tsunami that threatens to overwhelm all human reason, attacking the hunter's mental barrier.

But the bounty hunter relied on his strong willpower to overcome all this time and time again.

Suppressing Jormungandr's appetite again, the man couldn't help but feel tired and helpless.

Jormungandr, this huge giant snake, is essentially a type that grows stronger the more it eats.

By eating a lot of food, it can become stronger at an incredible speed and grow in size.

Theoretically, for the eight years that the hunter has held the Dragon Ball, with Jörmungandr's characteristics, he should have been able to return to the realm of gods long ago - in that case, facing the dragons who mostly suppressed part of their own strength, Jörmungandr will definitely have the upper hand.

Even if someone summons a dragon that is comparable to the main god, the essence of Jörmungandr is also a dragon and snake with the legend of destroying the world and a record of killing gods, which is not inferior to any dragon.

If Jörmungandr really indulges his appetite and turns into a monster, the hunter can be sure that he will win without a doubt, but the world will also fall into a sea of ​​fire, and his soul is destined to be destroyed by the increasingly powerful ring. The big snake was suppressed for food.

But what he wants is not just victory - he doesn't want hellish ruins, but a perfect and immaculate utopia.

"So, be patient, Jormungandr. After I make my wish, you can eat me, or eat up all the mountains on the border... But now, you must be patient."

The vertical pupils flashed with ruthless light, suppressing the pure and huge magic power in the body, and the hunter finally reached his destination.

He came to the west of Maia City, around the Church of the Ancestral Dragon.

And here is where he felt the fluctuation.

"The Church of the Ancestral Dragon...it's not surprising that they hold the Dragon Ball."

Disguising themselves as ordinary tourists passing by, the bounty hunter determined that there was indeed a faint aura of the dragon here, and then prepared to turn around and leave naturally - knowing who the other party is, it would be much easier to be wary of the other party, or to carry out sneak attacks on the other party in the future. .

However, the bounty hunter did not expect that when he was about to leave, he happened to encounter Priest Vika and his party who were returning from Lord Maia's Mansion.

Immediately, the leader, Priest Vika, took a step forward, his sharp eyes sweeping over the hunter's body, as if he could see through all disguises.

“…The most powerful bounty hunter in the south, Mikhail ‘Stoneheart’, what are you planning to do here?”

Immediately, questions were raised, and the church warriors following Priest Vika all picked up their guns and pointed their guns at the bounty hunter named Mikhail.

But Mikhail didn't seem to see the guns, and just stared at the young priest closely.

--powerful.

After just a moment of looking at each other, the bounty hunter confirmed this - the strength of the other party was like the heat wave hitting his face in winter. It was so obvious that it could not be ignored.

Although Priest Vika looked thin and tender, and seemed to have never suffered any setbacks or injuries, Mikhail could see that under the other party's fair skin and the extremely strong muscle texture, there were The blood-red dragon pattern is spreading.

That's an impenetrable defense.

——The body is covered with dragon blood, invulnerable to weapons and bullets, and the dragon body is indestructible? In an instant, Mikhail thought of several dragons and snakes with related legends. Among them, there are myths and legends about bathing in dragon blood. The most famous one should be the magic dragon from another world, Fafnir. Related allusions... Heh, I guess the other party won't be like the legendary hero and leave flaws for himself.

Now that the other party's information has been obtained, this trip will make a lot of money.

There was no reply, and Mikhail immediately prepared to turn around and leave - not to mention his confidence that the young priest would not be able to keep him, and the bounty hunter also knew very well that if there was a fight here, it would always be the civilians who would suffer.

Similarly, the Church of the Ancestral Dragon also had the same concerns. When Priest Vika saw Mikhail turning around and leaving, he had no intention of pursuing him. He just stood there coldly and took note of the breath of the other party for future reference. Use arcane tracking.

"'Stone Heart' is actually a Dragon Ball holder... Things are starting to get tricky. If everyone else is of Mikhail's level, then I basically have to rely on luck to win in the end."

Although Vika himself is also a recognized genius in the church, even if many great priests are not as strong as him, an opponent of Mikhail's level is not an ordinary person, especially when the opponent has decades of combat experience, and even more It's not something that a young man like him can compare to.

Therefore, let’s not conflict first, let’s just test each other out.

However, just when the two of them made a tacit agreement that one would leave and the other would not stop them,

Boom——

Suddenly, an extremely dull roar came from outside the city, as well as the roar of some huge beast.

"What?"

"How can it be?!"

For a moment, both Mikhail and Vika looked shocked. They both turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound, and then they were both confused and surprised: "Dead?!"

Then, they turned to look at each other, and both Mikhail and Vika saw that the shock in each other's eyes was not false.

Just now, the two of them felt at the same time that there was a huge change in magic power around the ice-free lake in the upper reaches of the Kobol River, which is not far away from the extraordinary... And there are only two kinds of magic power changes at this level. Possibly, one is that a Dragon Ball holder dies and his power collapses, or the other is that the dragon is defeated and his incarnation collapses.

Of course, there is actually a third possibility, which is that a passing innocent near-god peak powerhouse unfortunately died while walking around the Ice-free Lake... Who believes it?

The seven Dragon Ball holders have just gathered together for a day, but someone has already left? This is really unbelievable. You must know that according to historical records, the founding emperor of the Kaaba Empire fought fiercely with many powerful enemies for forty days and nights before he defeated all enemies and was able to meet the ancestral dragon and make his wish successfully.

However, no matter how confused he was, it was impossible to know the answer if he stayed where he was. Without any hesitation, Mikhail, who had originally planned to leave, immediately picked up the magic power in his body and accelerated directly towards the ice-free lake, while Vika turned his head and told After looking at the church warriors, he also cast spells and followed Mikhail.

When they arrived at the shore of Fudo Lake, they found that there was already a 'Dragon' observing the situation.

Needless to say, it was Su Zhou.

"Oh, it turned out to be you, you came quite quickly."

Looking from a distance, Su Zhou, who was raging against the rampaging beast in the center of the lake, also noticed a familiar aura. He turned around and saw the bounty hunter and another unknown Dragon Ball holder.

Similarly, Mikhail and Vika also noticed Su Zhou - and more importantly, they saw that Su Zhou's left hand was now holding an extremely petite... uh.

An extremely petite exoskeleton armored warrior.

That’s right, it’s an exoskeleton armored warrior.

It could be seen that the little figure beside Su Zhou, holding his hand, was wearing a full-coverage child-type exoskeleton armor. The gray-white dragon scales had a heavy feel, and it was obvious that the defense power was extraordinary.

——God damn children’s exoskeleton.

Even Shi Xin, who was as calm as Mikhail, couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this scene, let alone Vika. The young priest even rubbed his eyes with an expression on his face as if he had seen a ghost.

Naturally, Su Zhou didn't care about the thoughts of these two people. He turned his head again, looked at the huge sea monster raging in the center of the lake, and said calmly: "Besides you two, there are two other people coming."

The young man marveled at this and said with emotion: "Counting the guy who may have been killed and the guy who killed him, the seven Dragon Ball holders are probably here."

The next chapters are all big chapters, so the update may be in the early morning. Don't wait, just read it tomorrow.
