Under the Red Dragon

Huff, huff.

The rapid flapping and booming sounds of wind came from the distant sky. Two metallic dragons from the dragon horde soared from their dragon nests, flying towards the Dragon King's fortress.

Bang, bang.

With several thuds, the copper dragon Alfred and the bronze dragon Alina, for the first time, lost their composure, landing clumsily like clumsy wyverns.

The two young dragons continuously beat their broad wings to mitigate the impact of the landing, their thick claws scratching shallow white marks on the smooth ground as they slid forward.

"Karon, this is bad! The dragon horde has been awakened by the ancient Dragon Song's legacy of evil dragon blood. Their fragile independent consciousness and the humanity nurtured by their wisdom may not be able to hold on."

The copper dragon Alfred slid in a face-plant towards the massive red dragon, his tan head flat on the ground, not even having time to lift it before speaking urgently.

During the time he integrated into the territory, the copper dragon Alfred no longer simply envied the dragon horde and joined, as he had before. He genuinely liked his work, which suited his copper dragon nature.

He also liked the dragons in the territory, this unique dragon horde, which gave the copper dragon something that chromatic dragons would never have—something humans call emotion and love.

This was different from the blue dragons, who lived in groups as a family. Blue dragons did so because of their inherent nature and habits of order, but the Gogmora dragon horde existed in a way that, to some extent, violated the nature of chromatic dragons.

Perhaps it wasn't very obvious, and they didn't possess much of it, but it was extremely prominent in chromatic dragons.

"Chromatic dragons and metallic dragons are different. The ancient Dragon Song has very little impact on metallic dragons," the copper dragon Alfred added.

In fact, the metallic dragons' kindness wasn't something he made up. These good dragons truly deserved the title of 'good.' Even in ancient times, when dragons ruled everything, metallic dragons weren't as cruel and tyrannical as chromatic dragons, treating all races as food, but only as slaves.

Perhaps only the Sahuagin, who were expelled from the ranks of intelligent races by the bronze dragons, could personally sing the ancient Dragon Song to awaken the bronze dragons' gluttonous desires, uncontrollably heading to the sacrificial site.

Compared to the copper dragon Alfred, the bronze dragon Alina behaved much more elegantly. After retracting her wings, she strolled gracefully to Karon, looking up at the squatting red dragon.

But the worry and urgency in her words were also evident. "Karon, if the dragon horde, with their revived evil dragon will, loses control, the order within the territory will probably be disrupted, and many of our previous efforts will be in vain!"

"Trust cannot be built in a day, but destruction can happen in a short moment!"

"You should stop the dragon horde. You have the ability to stop at least two or three dragons!"

"Instead of being here comfortably, like a spectator in the audience, watching with indifference!"

The copper dragon Alfred looked at the increasingly激烈的 bronze dragon Alina with some worry. From the bronze dragon Alina's words, he could hear that this female bronze dragon was more worried about her achievements being destroyed, rather than starting from the dragon horde's standpoint.

Obviously, the bronze dragon Alina hadn't truly fully integrated into the dragon horde. This was very normal. Metallic dragons and chromatic dragons inherently had gaps and prejudices. Even the bronze dragon Alina only joined the dragon horde because her goals were the same as the dragon horde's.

Karon squatted on the mountain peak. Even so, his massive body was still nearly nine meters tall, like a low, one-story castle, standing on the howling mountain peak, unwavering.

His scarlet, jewel-like vertical pupils now seemed to have shed their innate bestiality. The brilliance of humanity and a certain divine light filled his pupils.

He slightly lowered his solemn head, which was covered with thick, long thorns on his cheeks. The pair of trident-shaped dragon horns on his head seemed to be the scepter of his power, carrying a heavy sense of strength, causing the bronze dragon Alina, who was questioning him, to involuntarily choke.

"I have already gone," Karon's deep dragon voice was like the muffled thunder rumbling in the dark clouds before the storm.

"But I will not stop them. This is a choice they must face. No one can change it."

"As for what you are worried about, don't take it to heart. I am the master of the dragon horde, the king of the Gogmora dragon horde. When the time comes, I will take action, and I will bear all the consequences. This is the promise I gave to all the dragons when the dragon horde was formed!"

Karon raised his huge red claw, gently turned it over, and said lightly, "Even if all the order within the territory is turned upside down, with me here, I can simply recreate the world. Besides, they are just some little mice, who can't escape from my dragon claw's control."

"And those residents, I have already been biased and cared for them enough. But just as every dragon in the dragon horde needs to accept the test of their own destiny choices, these residents must also bear the consequences of their actions, whether they do it intentionally or not!"

"I am a ruler, not a nanny!"

At this moment, the bronze dragon Alina deeply felt the kingly aura of the red dragon in front of her. It was not the superficial majesty and power, but the will and determination hidden deep in her heart.

At this moment, Alina finally felt respect and admiration for the red dragon from the bottom of her heart, rather than the superficial appearance that could be suppressed by stronger power and more solemn majesty, like the appearance of colorful clouds that could be scattered at any time.

She deeply lowered her head to express her submission to the red dragon in front of her, and then raised her head, asking with the same respectful expression as when facing her parents: "If the dragon horde cannot make the right choice…"

Karon raised his beautiful, ferocious, and majestic head, looked into the distance, and said lightly: "Then, the dragons who cannot make the right choice will not stand by my side. They will not be regarded as like-minded people by me."

"But as a member of the family, the whole of the dragon horde, the brothers I acknowledge, they will gradually hide in the shadows behind me, becoming ordinary dragons until they die of old age!"

……

"Take her, take her,"

"Fly, descend,"

"Forever offering you, the young girl!"

The afterglow of the sacrificial song, the Dragon Song, floated in the sky above the riverbank until it dissipated.

And countless villagers by the riverbank were also silent, looking at the empty surroundings and the quiet world, without any reaction, as if this sacrifice was just a drama.

Just as many villagers were looking at each other with doubtful expressions, the clear sky, illuminated by the rising sun, suddenly darkened, as if dark clouds suddenly enveloped it.

A strong wind rose, blowing the flags on the riverbank fiercely, the flames flickering, the clothes dancing, and the dust flying.

"Aowu," (Dragon Roar)

A dragon's roar, deep but with penetrating power, spread throughout the wilderness.

The dark clouds in the sky were the dragon's open wings, the white gems were the dragon's scales, and the roaring wind was the dragon's royal rank, falling from the high altitude.

Boom, the white dragon Camide's hind legs and claws directly overturned the boat carrying the holy maiden, and then his front claws grabbed the upturned wooden boat, soaring into the air and landing on the riverbank.

Hundreds of villagers stared intently at this scene, although they had begun to get used to the life in the territory, and maintained recognition and trust in the dragon lord under various propaganda.

But facing such a huge white beast, it undoubtedly made these ordinary people instinctively fear and panic.

The white dragon Camide's eyes were full of desire. He put his huge head close to the trembling girl lying in the wooden boat, sniffing wantonly at the ritual aura surrounding the girl and the fragrance of the girl's flesh itself.

These auras made the white dragon's appetite soar. A certain aura of the girl aroused the white dragon's lust, making him want to humiliate the girl and vent his desires.

The treasures in the boat also aroused the white dragon Camide's own draconic greed. This was a desire rooted in the evil dragon's blood, rising fiercely under the white dragon's cold body surface.

Drip, drip.

The white dragon Camide couldn't help but drool, dripping on the closed-eyed girl's face, causing this beautiful girl to shiver subconsciously.

Seeing this situation, the villagers also became nervous. This seemed completely different from the blessing that the two dragon priests said. The white dragon seemed to want to eat the most beautiful girl in the village.

This undoubtedly made these villagers panic. All kinds of legends about evil dragons in the past emerged. They began to cry, plead, and pray for the dragon's mercy.

"Great white dragon, noble dragon lord, please spare this poor child. Our village is willing to offer cattle and sheep every year,"

"Ah, my poor child!"

"Damn it, you two priests, this is different from what you said!"

The crowd surged, and resentment filled the air!

"Eat her, abuse her, vent your desires. You are a noble true dragon, you should enjoy this due sacrifice…" The evil dragon will in the white dragon's body roared, inciting Camide's desires and ignorant will.

The white dragon Camide couldn't help but stretch out his tongue and lick the girl's smooth cheek. Well, the taste was excellent.

But the white dragon Camide suddenly stopped. A suspicious look appeared on his confused face, and he muttered to the evil dragon will in his body: "No, you want to control me, right? Karon doesn't like this, and I don't like this either,"

"Eat her, abuse her, vent your desires…" The evil dragon will was not a truly intelligent thing, but only intensified the agitation and influence.

"Shut up, you annoying dragon guy," the white dragon Camide shook his head. This chaotic white dragon, although the dumbest dragon, was, to some extent, also the dragon that could best maintain his nature and innocence, and the autonomous consciousness that was born was purer.

"If you make any more noise, I'll have Karon clean you up someday. Get out of my head quickly," the white dragon Camide's will began to resist the agitation of the evil dragon blood.

Even Karon couldn't strip the influence of the evil dragon blood from these dragons, but the white dragon Camide always had endless trust and unconditional support for the red dragon.

That trace of faith power harvested from the elves of the Green Field Forest began to take root in the white dragon Camide's soul, protecting his autonomous consciousness and gradually blocking the influence of the evil dragon will.

A small bulge quietly appeared between the white dragon Camide's slender neck, like another head of the white dragon.

"That's good. As expected, Karon is right. Let the desires see who is the master of the body. Now it's really quiet,"

Slurp.

The white dragon Camide retracted his saliva. Dragons were still greedy, but at least they could no longer forcibly drive the white dragon.

"Well, Karon also said, since I'm already here," the white dragon Camide shook his head, waddling, walked to the sacrificial lamb, spewed out a mouthful of dragon breath, freezing the lamb into an ice cube, and then swallowed it into his belly.

The white dragon Camide ignored the villagers with strange expressions on their faces, looking like they had survived a catastrophe, and swung his tail and flew into the sky, heading towards the dragon's nest.

The careless white dragon Camide didn't have more ideas. He was thinking about the excitement Karon had mentioned and wanted to rush back as soon as possible.

And the two priests who quietly hid and walked away in the crowd did not see that behind the huge bronze bell that had been sent some time ago and hung on the wooden building in the center of the village, the bell that no one could ring, the space rippled slightly.

A tall figure stepped out from the twisted spatial fluctuations. He had a pair of red horns facing the sky, and his scales were stern. His aura field was combined with the entire world, like a团 air in the eyes of all creatures.

This figure quietly followed the two priests who left, stepping into the forest path, like an invisible shadow, invisible and untouchable.

The black dragon Rosani, whose figure was gradually developing towards Karon's direction, descended from the sky and landed on the riverbank of Shallow Water Village.

The first thing this huge black dragon did when he landed was not to look at the pure girl who was sacrificed, but to look at the sacrifices that were slaughtered and used as sacrificial livestock.

It was a beautiful mare with a coat of hair as if covered with feather satin. But at this moment, she was lying in a pool of blood, silent, and the bright black fur gradually dimmed.

"Damn it, you people are really annoying to dragons. Awakening the evil dragon blood is enough to make me angry, and you killed such a beautiful mare. I will punish you when I go back and make your village unable to raise horses in the future!"

The black dragon Rosani spewed out two strands of black mist between his noses. He picked up the dead mare with his limbs in annoyance and flew into the sky, leaving behind the villagers who looked at each other and the two priests who were inexplicable.

"Is this an evil dragon?"

"Yes, I guess!"

Boom.

The female red dragon Kraina, this restless mother dragon, descended from the sky with tyranny and hunger in her eyes. The air waves even blew away several villagers.

"Who dares to awaken the blood of the red dragon, the self-righteous idiot," the big mother dragon Kraina could no longer suppress her desires. The dragon blood summoned by the ritual must be satisfied to subside the influence. This was an influence that the female red dragon who embarked on another path could not erase.

The surrounding villagers trembled, too frightened to speak by the dragon's might, and only pointed to the two priests who wanted to escape with trembling fingers.

Huff.

Kraina opened her wings, leaped gently, landed behind the two priests, and then burned the two priests into coke with a mouthful of dragon fire, venting the raging fire in her heart.

"You bunch of idiots, who told you to summon a dragon?" The arrogant Red Dragon Klynnaya disdained to explain, venting some of her brutal desires, then swallowed the ox offered by the villagers in one gulp before flying back into the high sky.

"Seize those two priests for me," White Dragon Germott said as soon as he landed. He swallowed the villagers' offerings and then looked at the priests, who were being held down by the villagers.

"Any religious order not permitted by the dragon territory is a heretical cult, and any sacrificial act not approved by the territory is a heretical sacrifice," White Dragon Germott announced to the bewildered villagers, holding his head high. "Ignorance is no excuse, but to make you remember today's mistake, your village will be punished—each person must offer one liter of rice as atonement!"

The White Dragon Lord always had a slightly different style than other dragons.

Green Dragon Antagena was the dragon most deeply affected by her own evil dragon blood among all the dragons in the dragon group. Her desires were completely beyond her own will to resist.

The last bit of clear consciousness the Green Dragon had watched in despair as she opened her mouth towards the holy maiden, surrounded by the screams and cries of countless villagers. Her heart sank into a dark and boundless abyss.

If she used this method to satisfy the dragon blood within her, the power of the evil dragon's will would become stronger and stronger in the future, and it would become increasingly difficult for her to resist the influence of the evil dragon blood.

She didn't care about eating people; Karon probably didn't either. In the Greenwild Forest battlefield, the Green Dragons had eaten no small number of elves.

But those were enemies, and the meaning was completely different.

In despair, the Green Dragon suddenly flashed the Red Dragon's shadow in her mind, and she immediately cried out, "Save me, help me, Karon, my king, my brother, my master!"

"Very good, Antagena, you have made a choice. Heaven helps those who help themselves. At this moment, our fates are connected, and we will live side by side." A low, familiar voice echoed in the Green Dragon's mind.

A seed radiating white light was born in the Green Dragon Antagena's heart lake, quietly enveloping her weak will and dispelling the darkness.

Blue Dragon Doss and Blue Dragon Akz stood side by side, suspended in the clouds, overlooking the sacrificial scene below.

The ritual was summoning the two Blue Dragons to descend, but the faith power in the bodies of the two dragons, who were already accustomed to order, had long formed chains of order under their habits, blocking the influence of the boiling dragon blood will.

"What should we do, Akz? Should you go down, or should I?" Blue Dragon Doss asked.

"I'll go down. You are smaller and easier to hide. After I leave, you quietly follow those two priests and dig out their lair. How dare they make trouble in our territory? I will hang all their heads on the city wall to dry for a thousand years!" Blue Dragon Akz replied.
