Chapter 1317 The True Identity of the Mysterious Visitor
Broken dragon scales scattered on the ground, and dazzling flames rose up, reflected in the astonished eyes of everyone, including not only our camp that was suppressed by the black confinement barrier, but also the enemy camp.
Seeing the leading dragon captain fall to the ground with a bang, the other opponents around him immediately went into an uproar. The nearest dragons were stunned and opened their bloody mouths one after another, biting towards the attacking dragon.
But before their sharp teeth could touch the scales of the dragon, the scales on their own bodies were first lifted up by the giant claws that were suddenly swung up, and their skin and flesh were immediately torn apart.
Ouch!
A hysterical dragon roar followed, full of wailing and anger.
The ones who attacked them were the other giant dragons standing around.
Then, exactly the same things happened one after another very quickly.
Caught off guard, and the other dragons' methods were extremely fierce, whether biting or clawing, their attacks were aimed directly at the vital points, just like the dragon that attacked at the beginning.
It didn't take long before dragon scales and blood splashed in the air and the giant dragons that attempted to attack the dragon fell to the ground with wails, and were soon all annihilated in the blazing flames.
During this process, looking at the two teams of huge monsters fighting each other, biting and colliding with each other, Lei Xiao was surprised, but he quickly reacted.
Although it was unknown why, the whole scene was a bit dazzling, but the original team of opponents was obviously divided into two camps, so that five giant dragons including the action dragon suddenly attacked and killed the captain dragon and his minions who were clamoring to start a killing spree on the spot.
"While it's quite exciting to see these huge opponents killing each other, what is going on?"
Broy's cheek was still pressed to the ground by the invisible gravity, but he didn't care about that anymore. He just said in disbelief.
"Those who fell seemed to be preparing to attack us, including the captain dragon at the beginning."
A trace of hesitation appeared on Shult's wooden sculpture-like old face, and he spoke.
"So, those guys who killed Captain Long and his gang are here to help us?"
Chris's fair face was full of confusion, and she blurted out, "How is this possible?"
After hearing everyone's conversation, Lei Xiao frowned slightly.
Judging from the scene, the five dragons that took the initiative did seem to be helping us, but it is unknown why the other side did this.
But what is certain is that the other side has obviously not yet called for reinforcements, which undoubtedly bought us some time.
"My Lord, I seem to know why they did this."
Hong Ye barely managed to stand up from the ground and said to Lei Xiao, "I recognize their appearance. They are the tribesmen of another competitor for the clan leader who was almost wiped out by the opponent, whom I mentioned before!"
"I originally thought that they had been killed by the culprit back then, but I didn't expect them to appear here!"
After hearing Hong Ye's words, Lei Xiao's eyes suddenly became clear.
The other party's family was almost completely destroyed, just like Hong Ye's. This meant that the other party obviously also had great hatred towards the culprit.
If the fire of revenge in the other party's heart has not been extinguished, then it makes sense for him to do this.
Just as Lei Xiao figured out the current situation, something strange happened on the battlefield outside the confinement barrier.
After destroying the Captain Dragon and his gang, the dragons from the competing families just breathed a sigh of relief. Before they could take further action, they saw the Captain Dragon's broken body suddenly burst into flames, which was extremely dazzling.
"No, that guy is going to blow himself up!"
Seeing this scene, Hong Ye’s starry eyes widened and he couldn’t help but blurt out.
At such a close distance, the self-detonation of a sixth-level dragon was enough to devour several defenseless sixth-level dragons, and the dragons from the competitor families were obviously in this extremely dangerous situation.
If they all died, we would still be trapped in the confinement barrier and unable to escape. The huge shock wave of the explosion would shake the mountain and would probably attract the attention of other opponents in the nest. At that time, the situation would take a sharp turn for the worse and we would be in an irretrievable situation!
Sure enough, just as Hong Ye had expected, when the flames lit up again, the dragons of the competitor families who had just relaxed had no time to react. Looks of surprise appeared on their faces. Just as the temperature was rising rapidly and an explosion was about to occur, something strange happened again.
I saw a thick layer of ice suddenly forming on the charred ground, even extinguishing the flames that had not yet burned out, and then rapidly spreading towards the huge body of Captain Dragon that was about to self-destruct.
Wherever the thick ice layer went, the originally extremely hot temperature instantly dropped to freezing point. In the blink of an eye, the huge body of the captain dragon was completely frozen into a huge block of ice, and the energy fluctuations of the self-explosion disappeared.
After seeing this scene, even in our suppressed camp, there were cries of surprise and everyone was excited.
Among the excited crowd, only Lei Xiao looked calm and composed as he looked at the old figure slowly emerging outside the confinement barrier.
Needless to say, that was none other than Old Bing, and also the backup plan that Lei Xiao had left.
As the chosen son of God, Bing Lao's strength is naturally higher than that of ordinary strong men of the same class. In addition, Lei Xiao has given Bing Lao a large number of sixth-level trump cards, including many newly upgraded sixth-level summoning scrolls, which are perfect as hidden backup.
The reason why Bing Lao took action was because he received instructions from Lei Xiao.
Lei Xiao clearly understood that if the explosion was allowed to occur, it would not only attract the attention of other opponents, but would also cause an extremely critical problem.
That is, once the dragons of these competitor families die, even if Old Bing appears again, it will be difficult to break the confinement barrier in a short period of time. After all, we do not understand the secrets of the barrier, nor do we know where the center of the formation is.
After the crisis of self-destruction was resolved, the dragons of the competitor families breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in the direction of Lei Xiao, then spread their wings and scattered at a high speed.
Soon, crisp shattering sounds were heard one after another, and the confinement barrier that was pressing down on our heads like a giant peak quickly dissipated, and everything returned to normal.
"Reorganize the formation!"
After being freed from the restraints, Lei Xiao immediately raised his arms and shouted, and began to reorganize our soldiers who were originally in a mess.
Although most of the soldiers were out of breath and looked extremely embarrassed, they quickly got up from the ground and regrouped.
As our formation was restored to strict order, the dragons of the competitor families also returned, and finally landed together not far from our camp.
There were five red dragons in total, two at the sixth level and three at the fifth level.
Seeing five huge monsters falling from the sky, even though everyone had seen the scene just now and knew the other party's identity through Hong Ye's description, they still couldn't help but be alert and did not relax at all.
"Excuse me, who is Lord Serin from the Xuanran Family? Thank you all for helping us in time."
Lei Xiao stepped forward and broke the silence first.
Through the information provided by Hong Ye, Lei Xiao has already learned the general situation of the five dragons on the opposite side.
The Xuanran Family is the name of the family of the contender for the position of patriarch, and Serin is the daughter of the contender for the position of patriarch and also the one with the highest status in the family.
"Your Majesty is too polite. I am not doing this to help you. It just so happens that we have the same goal. We have been working like slaves under the culprit, hiding our hatred and looking for an opportunity for revenge. Now it is finally time to explode. Moreover, the strong men under your command also stopped the self-destruction in time, so we are even."
A hoarse and low voice sounded, and a relatively petite and slender red dragon came forward and nodded slightly, saying: "I am Serin Xuanran, and the new patriarch of the Xuanran family, even though there are only five of us left in our family."
After saying that, noticing that everyone on our side was still on guard, Serin first nodded to the other dragons, and then five huge bodies suddenly flashed with strong light. When the light faded, five human figures had appeared in front of everyone.
The young woman in the lead was quite similar to Hong Ye. The red heavy armor covering her slender body was extremely conspicuous, and her fair and delicate face exuded a faint arrogance.
The only difference from Hong Ye's high ponytail was that the young woman had short hair that reached her ears, which looked neat and tidy.
Behind the young woman were also two young people, a man and a woman, and further behind them were two burly middle-aged men, both of whom exuded the vast and majestic aura of the sixth level.
"So it's you guys?"
After seeing the other party's appearance clearly, Broy, who had just dusted off his body, blurted out: "Your Majesty, they are the five rude human visitors!"
After Broy finished speaking, Shult, Chris and others who had also seen the five people nodded, with surprise on their faces.
"So the mysterious human visitors are them?"
Lei Xiao also showed a hint of surprise, and nodded with sudden enlightenment.
In this way, the matter could not be more obvious.
They had been looking for an opportunity right under the nose of the culprit but never encountered the right moment until they learned that the coronation ceremony was approaching.
In desperation, knowing that they didn't have much time left, they planned to unite with the dwarfs and other forces. However, as dragons, they could not lower themselves, so it was not surprising that they were driven out by Broy and others.
"Disrespectful? It is a great honor for you to be looked at by the dragons. Although we did not participate in those battles five hundred years ago, we were hoping that you could dampen the culprit's spirit. But in the end, your spirit was completely shattered."
Serin crossed her arms, rolled her eyes at Broy, then looked at Lei Xiao, and then her voice softened a lot: "Your Majesty, since you can know my identity, then Hong Ye must be here, right?"
After that, Serin's eyes moved and soon fell on Hong Ye beside Lei Xiao. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Fire Mage Lucy, so you are really Hong Ye?"
Hearing this, Hong Ye did not respond, but just looked at the other party calmly.
As dragons of the same generation, Hong Ye and Serin grew up together as playmates. However, as time went by, due to the increasing conflicts between their families, their originally close relationship became distant and they became tit-for-tat competitors, looking down on each other until the night of destruction came.
What the two had never expected was that hundreds of years later, the two, both in poverty, would gather together again far away from their hometown, for the same goal.
"Everyone, now is not the time to be sentimental."
Although it had only been a few minutes since Serin and the others started to act, Lei Xiao, knowing that time was running out, still interrupted the two's recollections and suggested, "Since we have the same goal, why don't we act together?"
"That's exactly what I want. Although it's a little unexpected that you can approach here quietly, the road ahead is still full of thorns."
Serin nodded without hesitation, and then said seriously: "Are you planning to destroy the absolute defense barrier here in one fell swoop? It is indeed a good idea. Although we have tried every means to find the center of the imprisonment barrier just now, that's all. We don't have the means to open the absolute defense barrier."
"However, I need to remind you that even if you succeed in breaking through this absolute defense barrier, everything has just begun."
Serin's voice became more solemn, and she continued, "There are a large number of golem puppet arrays deployed in the dragon's lair, especially the lower part which is a restricted area for ordinary dragons. We have tried our best but have never been able to enter. We don't know what methods are hidden in it."
"According to my estimation, even with your rather large army, you may not be able to gain an advantage, because you are facing not only nearly two hundred giant dragons, but also tens of thousands of high-level golem puppets."
"Once the absolute defense barrier is broken, it will be like opening Pandora's box. Not only will the patrolling dragons and dragons in the nest be aware of it, but it will also instantly activate the summoning arrays of all golem puppets."
After hearing what Serin said, everyone on our side couldn't help but look towards the huge entrance of the dragon's lair again.
The inside of the entrance was deep and dark, and I couldn't see anything inside at all. It was like a black hole that could swallow everything.
"Thank you for your reminder, Lord Celine. But once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. We must win this time. No matter how difficult it is, we must make our swords stained with the blood of our enemies. They should pay back the blood debt they owe us."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and the other strong men around him also had firm and unwavering gazes.
"Then let us ourselves stir up this storm that will soon sweep across the entire Dragon's Lair."
