Chapter 457: Chapter 439: Mythical Giant Dragon Alexius

In the northern part of the Elf Forest, amidst a dense jungle.

A Sub-Dragon Class Magical Beast, standing seven or eight meters tall, was sprawled on the ground, enjoying the delicious meal it had just hunted.

This magical beast was known as the Forest Floor Armored Lizard, possessing nearly invincible defense capabilities below the Golden Rank. It was the first magical beast with Upper Silver Rank strength players encountered after leaving the core area of the Elf Forest.

However, just as it was leisurely feasting, suddenly, an excited and resonant dragon roar echoed through the sky.

It shivered as if stimulated by something. Dropping its food, it ran off immediately.

But the enemy was quicker.

Accompanied by the sound of wind howling, a shadow covered the ground as a majestic Black Dragon dive-bombed from the sky…

Scarlet eyes glimmered with mischief as the Black Dragon puffed out its cheeks, opened its mouth, and spewed forth a jet of purple-black acid breath.

The breath reached its target in an instant, hitting the fleeing Forest Floor Armored Lizard accurately.

The Forest Floor Armored Lizard let out a dreadful scream as its armor, with a defense comparable to a Golden Creature, disintegrated under the corrosive acid. Even its internal organs were melted into a mushy pulp…

After twitching a few times, it collapsed on the ground, lifeless.

The Black Dragon landed beside it, standing proudly with a smug expression,

“Indeed, Mairrel is the strongest!”

Its voice resembled a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, with a hint of boyishness.

But shortly after, a petite figure appeared on top of its head.

It was an Elf Mage wearing luxurious robes and holding a delicate Magic Wand. She lifted the Magic Wand and tapped the Black Dragon’s horn in frustration, mumbling,

“Mairrel! Haven’t I told you?! Don’t attack too hard! Such good armor materials, all ruined by you! And… leave it alive! I invite you for barbecue just to finish it off!”

The voice was crisp with a slight tone of displeasure.

It was Little Xian Miao.

The expression on Black Dragon Mairrel’s face froze. It sheepishly smiled, revealing sharp, menacing teeth,

“Sorry, after upgrading, my power is too strong, and I still haven’t adjusted…”

Little Xian Miao: …

“Ahem, Mairrel didn’t expect that after awakening, I would become so powerful, and such an effect just from a breath… It can only be said that Lord Mairrel is truly remarkable now.”

The Black Dragon continued, lifting its proud dragon head, barely concealing its satisfaction.

Little Xian Miao: …

*This guy… after upgrading, is nearly invincible around here, and becomes more and more smug.*

She glanced at him, looking helpless,

“Just a Gold Middle Rank… I’ve read Sister Gugu’s translations of ancient texts. Many powerful dragons remembered in history have broken through to legendary status, you still have a long way to go, don’t get too cocky.”

“Tch, you don’t know this, in our race, breaking through to legendary status becomes Mythical Giant Dragons. Only those ancient guys can do it, and such beings no longer walk on the continent.”

Mairrel shook its head.

But just as it finished speaking, it suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of trepidation in its heart.

With the panicked and unsettling chirping, flocks of birds flew across the sky, seemingly fleeing from something…

Even seeing the intimidating Black Dragon on the ground didn’t change their direction, scattering in fright and haste.

“What’s going on?”

Little Xian Miao was slightly stunned.

Mairrel’s dragon face showed a hint of surprise and doubt as well.

It was about to say something when it suddenly sensed a feeling of oppression coming from a long-distant bloodline…

The next moment, darkness engulfed the earth.

In the frightful gaze of a dragon and a human, they saw a massive shadow appear overhead.

It was a terrifying giant dragon at least two or three hundred meters in size.

With dark golden scales that made her look as if she was cast from gold, her sail-like wings stretched from her shoulders all the way to the tip of her tail.

She swept across the sky like a mountain, causing anyone who sensed her presence to tremble.

As she flew over the heads of the dragon and the person, her wing-flapping paused slightly.

In an instant, Mairrel and Little Xian Miao felt a sharp gaze fall upon them, and then a deep, heavy voice with a hint of curiosity came from the sky,

“Hmm?”

After a second, a faint magical wave descended from the sky, scanning Mairrel’s and Little Xian Miao’s bodies.

They were horrified.

They wanted to evade, but found they could barely move under the lock of their opponent!

The magical wave flickered slightly…

There was nothing on Little Xian Miao, but on Mairrel’s body, a somewhat murky white halo appeared.

This was a third-circle mental magic known as “Detect Evil”.

It was a magic spell designed to check soul fluctuations, displaying the target’s psychological state in the form of a magical halo effective for creatures below the Demigod rank.

For those inclined toward justice and goodness, the halo would be pure white, while twisted and evil beings would transition to black…

Such magic was often used by those who revered justice and despised evil powers to distinguish allegiances and identify evil.

Once the detected halo was black, those with strong senses of justice would take action in anger to eliminate the target.

For instance… among dragons, Golden Dragons detested evil even more than Silver Dragons did.

However, upon seeing the halo on Mairrel, the enormous dragon’s dark golden eyes showed a tinge of surprise,

“Huh?”

“No halo… and a white halo?”

She murmured in confusion, taking a deep look at Little Xian Miao and Mairrel, then continued flapping her wings, flying into the distance…

The shadow covering the earth gradually faded.

And after the terrifying dragon flew away, the stiff Little Xian Miao and Mairrel returned to normal once more.

They looked toward the direction of the dragon’s departure, still showing shock in their expressions.

Uh, no.

The Black Dragon was shocked, while the Elf Girl was excited.

“Golden Dragon! It must be a Golden Dragon, right?! What a giant Golden Dragon! Such a beautiful Golden Dragon! Such a strong aura!”

Little Xian Miao exclaimed excitedly.

“Crap, Mythical Giant Dragon! This must be a Mythical Giant Dragon! How could Mairrel possibly see a Mythical Giant Dragon in the Elf Forest?!”

The Little Black Dragon looked as if it had seen a ghost, even using words it learned from the Chosen Ones.

However, when they noticed the direction the Golden Dragon flew off to, their expressions suddenly became serious simultaneously,

“Wait…”

“Isn’t that direction… Feilengcui?!”

Little Xian Miao’s eyes sparkled, then she shouted excitedly,

“Mairrel! Come on, let’s catch up! This must be another key storyline!”

…

Feilengcui.

The elves of the An family came and went, and players doing tasks and trading bustled through the streets of this rebuilt Elf City, as vibrant as ever.

In the next second, a massive shadow suddenly descended from the sky…

Elves and players alike looked up.

They saw a giant golden dragon.

This golden dragon circled in the air, then a voice, heavy yet respectful, came through,

“‘Red Gold Blade’ Alexius, under the order of Platinum Dragon King Reinhardt, greets Her Majesty, Eve, the God of Life and Nature!”
