The Journey of the Rainbow Dragon

Countdown to the beast wave:

1:36

1:35

1:34

Outside the hotel, a group of one man and two women pushed out the door. Judging from the appearance, they should be a team of three spell casters.

This combination is also strange in a team of adventurers with mixed personnel, because most spellcasters will choose some physically strong professionals as teammates.

Hmm. Usually used as human shields and consumables.

Among the three young people, the one standing at the front is a man of medium height.

He was wearing a black robe and held in his hand the fine gold staff he had just borrowed from his mentor.

Two young girls stood behind him. Their faces were a little pale, but they still looked determined and courageous.

"Teacher, let's go to the Mercenary Association to gather first."

Raya turned around, smiled and waved goodbye to the window upstairs.

Under her carefree smile, hidden was the fact that the fingers that were holding Fran tightly were turning white.

On the windowsill on the second floor, Tina, who was wearing a platinum robe, waved her hand reluctantly, and Ron, who was lying on her shoulder, silently glanced at the leader Bill.

Although her hand hurt a little, Fran still didn't say anything, but bowed her head respectfully and saluted:

"Teacher Tina, thank you very much for your care along the way. It is my honor to be your student. I will always cherish the teachings you gave me. Goodbye."

Compared to the two terrified women, Bill smiled and greeted the dragon shadow in the window with a relieved smile.

With that legendary magic wand, he is confident to protect his lover and classmates in the vast sea of ​​beasts.

At the very least, getting out unscathed is not a problem.

Moreover, according to Bill's own speculation, all this should be under the control of that adult.

on the city wall

A figure wearing an emerald green dress silently stared into the distance, which was the sandstorm caused by the herd of beasts.

With the return of Elise, the originally loose Blue Army suddenly found its backbone, and the entire Green Forest completely entered into the rhythm before the war.

Everyone understands the truth of city destruction and death. No one can survive alone in the endless sea of ​​beasts. Even a legend, if he does not avoid this torrent of flesh and blood, there is only one way to go: death!

Under the slogan "Saving the city is to save yourself", a large number of professionals were gathered by the Blue Army.

Many teams of adventurers and professionals of mixed ranks used the hall of the Mercenary Association as a gathering place. Under the guidance of managers specially sent by the Blue Legion, they assigned different tasks according to their strength to play their part.

Of course, this all comes with huge rewards - provided you can survive this beast wave.

This naturally includes Laya and others who live in the hotel.

"Why don't you let me help them?"

Tina slumped down on the soft sofa and looked at the three people drifting away from the window and the large group of soldiers passing by in the street. She couldn't bear to suggest for the third time:

"Maybe I can help those innocent civilians reduce a lot of casualties, even if I don't go to the front line and just apply a little blessing magic."

"no."

The mini dragon sitting on the table opposite her shook his head and calmly rejected Tina's request.

"Ron, I need a reason."

Facing Jin Longniang’s intense gaze.

Ron, who was originally planning to take a nap, had no choice but to explain his plan:

"If you act now, the people in this city will only thank you but not be grateful - for the vast majority of people, pain that they have not personally experienced cannot leave a mark on their hearts."

"But, I don't need their gratitude."

Tina asked confused.

Ron suddenly turned his head and looked at the girl's fair skin and slightly baby-fat face. He asked softly:

"What if I need it?"

Looking at the silent Tina, Ron sighed:

"I have no need for human gratitude, only for their faith."

"Making it manifest in front of the world and gaining the power of faith is currently the easiest way for me to improve my own strength."

Hearing this, Tina's eyes lit up: "Then you can save me."

"There's no point in trying to solve the problem directly."

Ron interrupted her.

He knew exactly what the other person wanted to say.

Looking calmly at the soldiers rushing to the battlefield outside the window, Ron saw the deepest fear hidden in their numb eyes.

Even the bravest warrior has his own fear deep in his heart, otherwise he would not belong to human beings.

“God’s grace is not given lightly.”

“Only by first tasting the pain of war can we understand the beauty of peace.”

The calm and cruel words echoed in the room, like a high god.

The emergence of the beast tide may be a natural disaster in the eyes of others, but for Ron, it has become an excellent opportunity.

Just like in a world without the Demon King, heroes are useless.

In a world without disasters and pain, would we still need those aloof gods?

now

In Ron's eyes, there is no difference between the humans in the Green Forest City and the cows that produce milk in the pasture.

Between the two, it is nothing more than that milk as an output item has been replaced by a more lofty "faith".

"what about me?"

After a long silence, Tina suddenly spoke with a trembling voice.

"As long as at the right time, you and my incarnation appear together to save the world from fire and water,"

"Then, under the impression of 'salvation', people will naturally have emotions such as admiration for you, which will then be transformed into a weak power of faith."

"I don't understand the power of faith, and I don't know how to use it."

Tina spread her hands, her eyes full of strangeness:

"No, Ron, Tina doesn't need it! We are real dragons, not those."

Faced with Tina's resistance, Ron still patiently explained:

"You don't need to do anything. At that time, I can use the power of faith produced to bless you, so that you can quickly improve your strength beyond the limitations of your age."

"At that time, you will even directly obtain the true legend, or even beyond the legend."

Looking at Ron who had planned everything, Tina suddenly calmed down.

"By then, the green forest will already be littered with corpses, right?"

She interrupted expressionlessly.

Ron frowned.

Just when he was about to say something.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

A sudden loud noise interrupted the conversation between the two dragons, and a deafening roar sounded from the direction of the western city wall.

This proves that the beast tide has entered the range of human magic equipment.

Including three magic crystal cannons, countless large and small city defense tools have taken advantage of the distance and began to harvest the lives of large tracts of low-level monsters.

Before the war, take advantage of the little time left.

Elise led hundreds of professionals to create a huge city-protecting channel 10,000 meters long, 100 meters wide, and 1,000 meters deep on the cultivated land three thousand meters away from the city wall, and set up countless medium and low-level trap magics in it. , enough to block attacks from monsters including those below level 4.

But even so, compared to the endless tide of Warcraft, what humans killed was just a drop in the bucket.

Even before the minute hand moved for the second time, a large swarm of beasts filled the "natural chasm" with corpses.

"Roar!!"

The beasts with scarlet eyes stepped on the corpses of their own kind and rushed straight to the city wall as if they were walking on flat ground!

What follows is the most brutal battle to defend the city wall.

In the room

Ron said nothing, just silently feeling the withering of lives outside.

After a pause, he said helplessly:

"I will try to keep the number at an optimal level so that most humans will not die."

Tina opened her eyes wide, clenched her fists, and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar lover in front of her.

"You've changed, Ron."

She trembled:

"Are you aware of what you are doing to gain power?"

Seeing Tina's disappointed eyes, Ron's mind couldn't help but flash back to what happened in the former main elf city.

How many scarlet secrets are hidden under the glamorous city?

Ron knew very well that the consequences of losing his power would be far more terrifying than what Elizabeth had experienced.

Elizabeth faced only Malcanthet and the enemies of the Abyss.

And what he has to face is the entire star realm

Thinking about the gods he might face in the future, although Ron couldn't bear it, he had to embark on the road of no return full of blood and fighting to gain strength.

Soon, Ron calmed down the turmoil in his heart and said calmly:

"This is the way to gain strength. The law of the jungle and the strong are the real side of this world. No one will hear the cries of the weak. Only by becoming stronger can we reach the end."

"Tina, I think you should get used to this from now on, after all."

"enough!"

Tina pushed the door open.

In an instant, the fresh and bloody air outside rushed into the warm room.

The long platinum hair flutters in the wind, just like Tina's heart yearning for justice and freedom.

With the dazzling golden light shining, a beautiful golden dragon soared into the sky amid exclamations of surprise.

She glanced back at the silent hotel cabin.

"Go be your savior, Tina doesn't care!"

Putting these words aside, Tina shot straight into the sky without looking back and flew towards the city wall.

But Ron still stopped where he was, not moving.

He quietly sat on the sofa that was still warm, looking through the half-open door at the back of Jin Longniang who was getting farther and farther away until she disappeared. (End of chapter)
