Chapter 397 Awakening

The River Styx, whose origin is unknown, surrounds the nine levels of the underworld, runs through the abyss, and can lead to the kingdom of the dead.

It is not only a physical river, but also carries conceptual power. The power of the Styx is used to make a contract, which is one of the most effective contracts known.

The existence of the River Styx is so special that traces of it being connected by the River Styx can be found in almost every part of the material world.

As long as there is a world where living creatures multiply, it will inevitably be affected by the Styx, because the souls of the dead will follow the Styx and eventually reach the kingdom of the dead.

Of course, if one has devout faith, the soul that falls into the River Styx will also be picked up by the gods, and then turned into petitioners under the immortal throne of the gods.

In other words, although the existence of the Styx will exude an attraction to the souls of the dead, as long as there is a certain high-level power to influence and intervene, some souls can still be fished out of it.

"Well done!"

Tyrell, whose consciousness was connected to the World Tree, couldn't help but praise. After counting the number of battle losses under his command during the promotion period, even though he was mentally prepared, it was still a bit unbearable because of this kind of battle loss. , has exceeded his psychological endurance bottom line.

However, such a heavy loss can be partly recovered. First of all, the souls of all the Blood Angels who died in the battle were recovered by the World Tree at the moment of death. They were not affected by any power, and there was no risk of corruption. .

Secondly, there are the dependents who died in the World Tree. Because of their relationship with Tyrell, their souls did not fall into the River Styx, but were absorbed by the World Tree.

These souls contained by the World Tree all have the opportunity to be resurrected and come back, and they even have the possibility of becoming stronger.

"Retreat and wait!"

After discovering that his loss was not as serious as he had imagined, Tyrell's mentality became much calmer. Even the retaliatory thought of bloodbathing the world that had just emerged in his mind had also calmed down a lot.

Of course, liquidation is still needed. Tyrell already knows about the encirclement and suppression of the forces under his command after he fell asleep. He also knows that many kingdom-level forces in the world of Kallos have formed the Dragon Slayer Alliance.

Around the world, basically all the organizations and forces with names and surnames have joined in. As for how many of them are forced and how many are voluntary, Di Ruier doesn't know, and he doesn't want to pursue it. He doesn't want to waste energy in this area.

There may be many forces that want to stay out of the matter, but with the current situation in the world, there is no room for the neutral camp to gain a foothold. Therefore, under various unfair means such as suppression or coercion, no matter who it is, they have to Choose a team to fight on.

Now that the location has been chosen, it is natural to bear the corresponding consequences.

Tyrell conveyed a brief thought with the help of the World Tree, and then indulged in the transformation. He had a hunch that it would not be long before his body would complete the final transformation and finally wake up.

Three years have passed by in a flash. Although it is only a short three years, for the world of Carlos, the world's pattern has undergone earth-shaking changes in these three years.

In the vast war to exterminate dragons, the dragon clan that attempted to conquer the world was retreating steadily. The tide of dragon beasts that originally frightened all races and nations is still active on the battlefield, but their numbers are becoming increasingly scarce.

At the same time, most of the many legends belonging to the Dragon Clan have disappeared, and more than half of them can be confirmed to have perished on the battlefield.

The dragons who tried to conquer the world were so badly hurt, and the Dragon Slayer Alliance, which had annihilated them to such an extent, was naturally no better off.

In this war that lasted for thirty years, nearly a hundred famous or unknown legends either died or were severely damaged and had no choice but to retire.

The legendary level has been hit hard by so many people, and the losses suffered under the legendary level are even more tragic.

In the Dragon Slayer Alliance, if some member states are not very powerful, they can almost be considered as being eliminated. Even those kingdom-level forces with deep foundations have also suffered heavy losses. Many kingdoms are no longer qualified to be kings. .

For the member states that have officially joined, the losses of those forces that were coerced or deceived into joining are not as simple as heavy losses. There are many people who have been exterminated.

It is no exaggeration to say that in this single battle, the world of Carlos was severely damaged, both at the high-end legendary level and at the bottom of the world.

However, such large losses are temporary, because as long as the war is over and everything is settled, everything will be restored, whether it is the number of members of each tribe or the number of legends. After all, resources are always There it is.

Of course, which ethnic groups can recover in number after the war, and which ethnic group the new legends belong to, are issues that need to be discussed separately.

Now, there is only one way for the Dragon Slayer Alliance, and that is to break through the core of the Dragon Clan and uncover the Dragon Clan Emperor who has been hiding for many years and has never appeared.

Only by beheading him can all the legends who participated in the Dragon-Slaying War be able to sleep peacefully, otherwise no one would be able to live alone and peacefully.

"Is this the place where the Bronze Dragon hid? It's really remote, but it's also strange that it hasn't been discovered for so many years."

"There is a tribe of elves who fled from other worlds and set up a secret lock here. It is not surprising that they were not discovered."

"So, the seeds of the World Tree were also brought by this elf tribe?"

"You think too highly of the elves. Although the elves are related to the World Tree in the legend, it does not mean that they are qualified to obtain the seeds of the World Tree."

"Then where did this dragon get the World Tree?"

"These questions can be discussed after we find the World Tree. As far as I know, the World Tree also has its own will. We can ask the tree directly then."

One after another, the figures emitting divine power stood under the sky, looking at the Seidelling Islands scattered not far away. Beside them and on the sea, there were many kinds of floating fortresses or ocean warships. At a glance, there was no end in sight.

In order to capture the core area of ​​the dragon tribe in this world, the major member states of the Dragon Slayer Alliance almost took out the last bit of their assets.

However, even so, the hope of breaking through this place lies in more than a dozen seemingly tiny figures. The momentum they exude, even if they are not deliberately doing so, makes the clouds in the sky dissipate, the wind stop flowing, and the sea water has no waves, which is almost as calm as a mirror.

God incarnation

Although the Dragon Slayer Alliance suffered heavy losses in the thirty-year war, its top-end combat power has never decreased from beginning to end. Every god who descended on the incarnation will continue to invest without hesitation even if the incarnation is damaged and destroyed.

It is in this kind of dimensionality reduction attack that the dragon clan that lost the emperor retreated step by step. Otherwise, it is really hard to say whether it is a familiar victory or a familiar defeat.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense here, you can order them to attack. I am very curious about where the world tree is hidden."

"I am also curious. To be honest, so far, I have not seen what the real world tree looks like!"

When the will of the gods was issued, this war that almost gathered most of the combat power of the entire world broke out immediately.

Destructive streams of light streaked across the sky. Under the orderly command, they could almost avoid interfering with each other, turning into a gorgeous river of light that almost cut off the connection between the sky and the earth.

Unfortunately, this seemingly beautiful scene represents extreme destruction and contains infinite destruction. The matter touched by this light, whether it is sea water, flying birds, or islands, will only have one end, that is, being decomposed and annihilated.

In just the first round of tentative attacks, seventeen islands on the periphery of the Sedellin Islands disappeared forever on the sea. The surging sea water was stained with endless blood.

However, the counterattack from the dragon clan soon came, which was the light emitted by the many element towers built deep in the archipelago.

Compared with the magic cannons built on movable airships or warships, the element annihilation towers with a solid foundation and no need to consider the specifications can burst out more terrible destructive power.

"It's a rare wonder that a master of alchemy can appear in the dragon race."

Looking at the crisscrossing lights between the sky and the vast ocean, and the many gods descending to incarnate, it's like being out of this world, looking down on everything with indifferent eyes, and still having the mood and energy to comment on the battlefield scene that looks quite beautiful.

"No matter what happens under the World Tree, it's not strange."

"But we can't blame all the anomalies on the World Tree. The dragon race would have some unique and abnormal individuals."

"The dragon who tried to conquer the world is the biggest anomaly I have seen in the past ten thousand years."

"If he didn't get the World Tree seeds from the elves, it means that he has a deeper secret than the World Tree."

"You said this to me, which will really cause trouble for me."

"What's the trouble? Can't you think of this? Compared with the World Tree, the dragon may have a higher value."

"In that case, you won't participate in the division of the World Tree. How about giving the dragon to you?"

"Ha!"

The World Tree can clearly benefit, but whether the Dragon Emperor has a higher secret than the World Tree cannot be confirmed. This is just a guess.

"Okay, let's not watch here. If the prophecy is correct, the dragon may be about to wake up. When he really wakes up, coupled with the protection of the World Tree, we may be in great trouble."

"It doesn't matter. As long as he is still a dragon, he will always be my prey."

A hunter holding a spear and a crossbow on his waist showed a cold smile mixed with cruelty and excitement. In this dragon-killing war, his divine power has been greatly increased.

He didn't know what other gods gained from this war, but as a dragon hunter, he benefited a lot from the war to exterminate dragons worldwide.

Therefore, when the incarnations sent down by other gods were still fighting and testing in secret, this incarnation of powerful divine power could not wait to turn into a divine rainbow, crossed the battlefield, and rushed into the island dominated by dragons.

Swish!

When the dragon-slaying spear in his hand was thrown out, a giant dragon's howl was heard. A giant dragon with scales that seemed to be burning let out a wail, shed blood hotter than magma, and fell from the sky.

While the dragon was howling, the dragon hunter drew out a dragon-slaying sword that seemed to be forged with gold from the void, and swung the sword to cut off the head of a dragon that was sticking out from the shadow and biting at him.

In front of him, the dragon really seemed like a beast, without any demeanor as a top predator in the food chain. The reason why dragons were so fragile in front of him, and the characteristics of the dragon clan could not be fully demonstrated, was because this god forged a set of dragon-slaying weapons with the convenience of war during the long war.

Seeing this dragon-hunting god perform so well, the other incarnations of the gods were not to be outdone. After all, they were all under the constraints of the rules of the material world. Even if there was a strong god power and a weak god power, there would not be much difference at this moment. It was nothing more than some differences in means.

When Di Ruier's consciousness woke up again, he saw this scene from the perspective of the world tree.

The Sedellin Islands, which had almost never experienced war, were now shrouded in blood and fire. The sea was dyed red by the blood of the Naga. In the sky, the corpses of giant dragons fell one after another. On the islands, the giants roared...

The islands were collapsing, the towers were breaking, and the floating cities suspended in the sky were also crumbling. Looking around, there was a doomsday scene everywhere that was about to overturn and be completely destroyed.

Ang——

The roar of the dragon with endless anger echoed in the sky and the ocean. Billions of thunders fell from the sky accompanied by the roar of the dragon. The space collapsed. The boundary between heaven and earth became particularly blurred at this moment. The sound of fighting on the battlefield seemed particularly weak and insignificant under such changes.

"World Tree!"

The voice of indescribable surprise sounded, because in the vast chaos, there was a giant tree rooted in the void chaos that was stretching its branches and emitting a bright glow.

Even if you just look at this giant tree, you can feel an invisible life force sweeping through your body, sweeping away all the negative states of your body, but soon the surprise turns into fear.

"Dragon!"

Everyone can see that in the crown of the giant tree that supports the sky and the earth, a pair of indescribably large dragon wings spread out, followed by a towering body that makes everything seem small, like a dust mayfly.
