Just as everyone was discussing how to protect the Execution Dragon, a dragon's roar suddenly tore through the sky.
Hearing this familiar roar, everyone froze.
"It's the Execution Dragon! Why is she here?"
"Speak of the devil… Don't tell she sensed what we were thinking?…"
"Since she's co looking for us, that must an she's recovered her peak strength again…"
"..."
The Execution Dragon's sudden arrival truly caught everyone off guard. Seeing this, Entity 303 looked at the others and said, "Let's go out and et her."
The Execution Dragon was far too large to enter the End Fortress.
Everyone imdiately followed Entity 303 up to the top of the fortress.
At that mont, a massive black dragon slowly spiraled down from the sky of the Nether.
Her body was enormous, her wings spanned several ters across, and her whole form was covered in hardened scales that shimred with a mysterious glow.
This dragon was the Execution Dragon. After sensing the group's presence, she began descending.
As she approached, an overwhelming pressure blasted toward them, making it hard to breathe.
However, when she finally landed on the open ground, they truly realized just how much she had changed compared to before.
She had already been extrely large, but now she was even bigger, at least twice the size she once was.
Her entire body was pitch-black, and her scales had grown unbelievably thick, like steel, almost as if even bullets couldn't pierce them.
Not only that, each individual scale shone with iridescent colors.
If you had to describe it with one phrase, it would be "iridescent black."
And it wasn't just her appearance; her power had also increased dramatically.
Just earlier, as she descended, she didn't land directly next to the End Fortress where Entity 303 and the others stood, but instead chose a spot so distance away.
Yet even from that distance, the storm whipped up by her massive wings as she dove downward nearly blew several people off the rooftop.
One could easily imagine that if they had been standing right at the edge, they would've been swept straight into the storm.
This showed just how powerful she had beco.
After landing far away, the Execution Dragon carefully and slowly walked toward the fortress.
Her bright, focused eyes stayed locked on the ground, afraid she might accidentally hurt her teammates.
Even though she moved cautiously, her body was simply too massive. Every step she took caused the surrounding ground to violently tremble.
The tremors were no weaker than the earlier windstorm, if anything, they were even stronger. Thankfully, everyone on the rooftop was gathered toward the center; otherwise, soone might have been shaken right off the building.
At this mont, the one suffering the most was undoubtedly Steve.
After the first violent tremors hit, almost everyone else had simply lifted themselves off the ground.
The Death Knight couldn't fly, but its body was much larger than the others, and its claws were extrely powerful.
So by just lowering its body and gripping the ground, it easily resisted the shaking.
Pengpeng and Steve were in the sa situation, but fortunately Pengpeng had a good relationship with the Death Knight, he simply hugged the Death Knight's leg tightly and was completely safe.
But Steve had only just joined the team and naturally couldn't enjoy such special treatnt.
Although Pengpeng enthusiastically invited him to grab onto the Death Knight's leg too, Steve felt it would be way too awkward and decisively refused.
Right now, all he could do was stab his blade deep into the ground and cling to it to avoid being thrown around.
But even doing that only kept him upright, the brutal shaking still made his bones feel like they were about to fall apart, leaving him in terrible pain.
Fortunately, the tornt didn't last long. As the Execution Dragon drew nearer, the entire area gradually stopped trembling.
Once she reached the fortress, the Execution Dragon lay down.
Lying down put her head at the sa height as the rooftop.
Seeing this, the group who had been hovering mid-air all descended and gathered near her.
As everyone ca close, the Execution Dragon swept her gaze over them. Her eyes held a faint reluctance, and she spoke.
"My power has returned to its peak. It's ti to face him."
Her words did not surprise the others. The mont she suddenly appeared here, everyone had already guessed she must have restored her strength.
Hearing this, Entity 303 thought for a mont, then looked at her and asked, "Are you confident you can defeat him?"
At that instant, the Execution Dragon's gaze flickered. She subconsciously avoided Entity 303's eyes and said, "...Of course."
Her instinctive reaction naturally didn't escape Entity 303. It was obvious she was lying.
Just as he was about to question her further, Null stepped forward and said, "I can sense your current strength, it's equal to his…"
"You don't actually have the confidence to erase him! You're planning to die together with him!"
Null's sensing ability was indeed extrely sharp. From the mont the Execution Dragon arrived, he had sensed her power.
He sensed that her current strength was on par with the Wither Storm.
After hearing her answer to Entity 303, he grew curious, he had thought she might have so thod to restrain Witherzilla, so he secretly probed her inner world.
Null could sense fear, and when he examined the Execution Dragon…
He found that what she feared was not Witherzilla at all.
Right now, what she feared was never being able to see Xu Yuan and everyone here ever again.
From that fear alone, it was clear she had no chance of winning against Witherzilla, but she had already made up her mind to fight to the death.
Though Null's sensing ability was strong, his emotional intelligence clearly still needed improvent.
But it was because he cared too much. He didn't want the Execution Dragon to sacrifice herself, even if her sacrifice could benefit the whole team.
Because she was family... part of their big family.
Null didn't know what ending awaited them, but at the very least, before they et Xu Yuan again, not a single mber of the family can be missing.
