Chapter 273 Mortifer
A raging sea of fire appeared in front of the Howling Abyss, dyeing the entire horizon orange-red, and also illuminating the shadow dragons and shadow spirits.
These shadow creatures wailed in pain, twitching in the firelight, making a "hissing" sound, and mist continued to emanate from their bodies, making them more illusory.
Under this blazing fire of purification, all shadows could not escape.
"Motifer——"
"If you still want to be a turtle, I will destroy everything you have!"
Cassius laughed wildly, and he flapped his wings suddenly, turning into a huge red figure, quickly passing over the sky above Dragon Shadow City.
Wherever the red dragon passed, there was burning chaos fire everywhere.
As he flapped his wings, a frenzied bloody hurricane swept through the city, constantly fueling the fire.
This half of the city seemed to have fallen into doomsday, with burning ancient buildings everywhere, and every house was filled with miserable wailing, cursing, and desperate screams.
In addition to humans, drow elves, and those pure shadow creatures, the main residents in Dragon Shadow City are drow elves with shadow dragon blood.
These elves that wander between shadow creatures and ordinary creatures are also called "Dark Shadow Elves". These elves have been subject to the rule of Shadow Dragon for centuries. They are proficient in shadow spells and are loyal subjects under the rule of Mortifer. They often become accomplices of Shadow Dragon's invasion of the world above.
"No, I don't want to die--"
"Fire, they are burning over!"
"Lord Mortifer, my supreme ancestor, save us!"
"Damn it! All invalid! No spell is useful!"
"Lolth above. Is this a punishment from the gods?"
But under the effect of the breath of chaos, the surrounding shadow magic net was in chaos, and even the most basic spell model would be disintegrated in an instant. They couldn't even cast shadow spells and would be engulfed by the spreading fire of purification.
Looking at the flames that engulfed everything in the distance, Feridon couldn't help laughing.
"Hahaha! These Shadow bastards, they should have paid the price long ago!"
"It's better to burn them all to death!"
Feridon was originally a well-known mercenary in the Underdark, but during the expansion of Dragon Shadow City, his lover and children were all transformed into undead Shadows. After that, his biggest goal in life became to destroy Dragon Shadow City and kill the Shadow Dragon.
He had a deep hatred for Mortifer in his heart.
But Danyal looked into the distance with a serious expression, muttering to himself: "This dragon seems to want to destroy everything."
Feridon's smile froze on his face, and the weathered warrior hurriedly asked: "Can't we use magic to leave? Just take me directly to the shadow plane as usual."
Danyal shook his head nervously.
"You are not a spellcaster, so you may not feel it. The magic net here has become chaotic, just like falling into the sea of chaos. At least people like me can't cast any spells."
Feridun's face turned pale, and cold sweat oozed from his forehead. It was not known whether it was because of the spreading high temperature or because of extreme worry.
He asked reluctantly: "Can we get in touch with the dragon? The enemy of the enemy is a friend, and we are also rebels."
Suddenly, a terrible wave came.
The sky around them suddenly became dark, and Feridun and Danyal also raised their heads in a hurry.
Feridun's face was full of fear, and he seemed to remember the night when everyone around him was transformed into undead shadows.
"That is..."
"It's Mortifer, he's here."
Danyal whispered in a low voice.
Half of the sky was transforming into the Shadow Underworld - it was dark, quiet, and filled with monotonous black and white. Twisted and hideous dead branches appeared in Dragon Shadow City, howling shadow spirits appeared in the alleys, and the sky was shrouded in endless shadows, like a dark dome, and in the distance were vague black mountains.
Dragon Shadow City was originally on the edge of the material world and the shadow world, and it often fell into the Shadow Underworld at night.
For centuries, the Shadow Dragon has been pushing the city to transform into the shadow plane with undead shadows, and at this moment he has almost exhausted all his strength to let his true body domain descend on Dragon Shadow City.
Thousands of shadows rose into the sky, forming a huge vortex with a diameter of nearly 100 meters above the city.
With a long roar, a shadow dragon covered with black scales like charcoal and wings made of transparent material appeared in the vortex.
It was the "Night Mouthpiece" Mortifer, the shadow nightmare that once made Cassius panic, and the supreme ruler of this city.
"Motifer, the rat hiding in the shadows, you finally came out."
"If you don't show up in front of me again"
"Your hundreds of years of career will be reduced to ashes."
Casius looked down at the shadow dragon.
-The once invincible existence now looked like a black vicious bat in front of him, weak and thin.
The shadow dragon's extremely dim gray eyes seemed to be burning with ghost fire, full of resentment and anger-and disbelief.
The young red dragon that had no power to fight back in front of him has now grown into a monster with a body length of more than 30 meters, and is as strong as those arrogant ancient red dragons. This terrible growth rate is unheard of even among those legendary dragon species.
Motifer let out a low and hoarse roar: "How is it possible?"
"Only a few short years have passed. How can you get such power? Even the chosen ones of Her Majesty Tiamat cannot get such a gift!"
As an unappreciated black dragon with a status only higher than that of white dragons, he chose to throw himself into the embrace of the Shadowfallen Underworld and was transformed into an immortal shadow dragon because he could not bear the temptation of power.
But even so, it took him hundreds of years to reach the current point.
He could not believe, let alone accept that this red dragon could surpass him in just a few years and regard his hundreds of years of accumulation as nothing.
Cassius smiled grimly and waved his wings, raising a hurricane that swept the earth.
"My power does not come from that old thing."
"But crushing a pathetic mouse is enough."
The green flames in Mortifer's gray eyes ignited again, his eyes were full of jealousy and malice, and he let out a gloomy roar:
"You will become the most powerful shadow under my control!"
"And I will use this to prove my power to Her Majesty the Dragon Queen and become His new favorite!"
The next moment, the Shadow Dragon waved its spirit-like transparent wings, stretched its slender neck to the sky, and let out a piercing scream - the sound was like the painful wailing of countless creatures before being transformed into undead shadows, and it was condensed from the fear of death.
This sound seemed to come from the eternal darkness, mixed with the hoarse wailing of thousands of undead shadows, and also contained the Shadow Dragon's infinite resentment and endless greed for light and life.
The nine-ring spell unique to the Shadow Dragon.
——[Motifer Shadow Advent Technique]
The dark dome in the sky was even slowly descending.
The shadowy peaks in the distance gradually approached, like a cage that imprisoned the world.
Thousands of shadow creatures wailed and surged over like a tide, revealing the twisted black mist form.
And Mortifell transformed into a huge shadow, blending his body into the sky, controlling this terrible realm in the darkness.
