"Do you have so deep hatred between you?"
Gong Qiying couldn't help but ask, as it was the first ti he saw Red Teeth with such an expression.
"Don't they say nowadays that the past we can't bear to look back on is called a kind of 'black history'?"
Red Teeth said, gritting his teeth in anger, "This guy is like my black history. Damn it, I thought he was long dead after not seeing him for so many years, but he's still alive."
The more Red Teeth talked, the more curious Gong Qiying beca about what exactly happened between the two of them.
However, asking about it could wait until later, as the image shown in the crystal ball revealed Elo and the others gradually approaching Gui Ao'er.
He could feel the imnse strength of this golden half-human half-dragon figure, possibly stronger than Sword Saint Japar when he first entered the Sain Dungeon.
Moreover, the other party wasn't hiding his power like ordinary experts; it was completely obvious he had a commanding presence, exuding a strong, muscular force.
Dragons of different colors each have their own domain of expertise, and the golden color usually signifies a type that has achieved physical sanctity?
"Be careful, this old thing is a Golden Dragon, specializing in close combat. I've suffered under his hand."
Red Teeth said with a grim face:
"His strength is undoubtedly legendary, even if not, he's already brushed that edge, so be cautious."
If he's that strong, why are you urging to fight him?
Gong Qiying shrugged—an enemy of legendary level?
This really was the first ti seeing such a record-setting enemy in the Sain Dungeon.
But who knew how Elo compared in strength with the current Japar and the Hero Elsa?
During the Battle Festival, Japar and Elsa weren't at full strength when they fought the Shattered Star General. Elsa couldn't fully unleash her power and was weaker than when fighting Elderly, whereas Japar once enhanced himself with the Wolf Blood Soul, essentially a Fran Guard, theoretically having a second stage like Dal and the others. But he never used it.
From Gong Qiying's observation, this Golden Dragon Elo probably also harbored so phase-shifting ability. How many of such high-level masters didn't have so trump card?
At the very least, the other party could transform from his current dragon-headed human form into a full giant dragon.
"Then let's test it with Gui Ao'er first."
anwhile, over at Elo's side.
This old dragon was surrounded by Abel and a group of his little companions, the only ones willing to play with Abel after being tricked at the last Battle Festival.
Elo thought it would be too dull to travel alone, yet calling on other adult dragons was boring, so he brought these juniors along.
Though Abel seed a bit unhappy with this decision, thinking there were pitfalls everywhere in the Sain Dungeon, and if his companions got hurt, that would be terrible.
However, his companions seed quite happy.
"Is it her?"
Elo stood high in the sky, gazing at Gui Ao'er's enormous body with a look of admiration in his eyes.
In the Sain Dungeon, manifested monsters often had changes in size different from the ga, such as shrinking for player computers, but expanded when materialized.
Gui Ao'er was one such case; originally large, she had beco even larger, and her presence was visible throughout the Dragon Tomb area.
Elo reckoned even if he fully transford into his giant dragon form, he might only match her in size with one claw.
It wasn't like driving a big vehicle; it was like piloting a Gundam.
If Gui Ao'er were to stand up or fly, what a magnificent sight it would be, akin to humans seeing a colossal giant from a dragon's perspective.
But Elo noticed sothing unusual as he observed.
It seed Gui Ao'er couldn't stand?
Looking from her body to the surroundings, he saw her claws, tail, wings... hanging limply on the ground, blending seamlessly with the environnt. Vegetation grew from her tail's end, and crimson corrupt mushrooms thrived around her.
Gui Ao'er had clearly not moved significantly in a long ti; otherwise, she wouldn't have left no traces.
She now seed as if she'd beco part of the Dragon Tomb, a natural landscape on this map.
"Did her enormous weight crush her?" Elo dismissed the thought imdiately, shaking his head, "No, dragons can't be that fragile."
"Long years of erosion, suspicious crimson corruption, and reasons unknown transford the poor thing into her current state."
Elo's voice held undeniable regret, and he continued:
"However, this is also a good opportunity."
Hearing this, Abel looked at his grandfather with a face of terror, his voice shaking as he asked, "Grandpa, you wouldn't want to...?"
He didn't finish before being smacked down by Elo, who coldly said from above, "Your grandpa doesn't go into heat arbitrarily. Do you think I'm a Yellow Dragon?"
Nearby, the little Yellow Dragon felt accused for no reason, swishing his tail in protest, but to no avail.
"Beauty viewed through a lens holds a hazy allure, as it's all in imagination. Seeing it in reality teaches you one thing."
He lectured earnestly, as if educating the younger generation:
"It looks even more beautiful in person."
"What?"
Abel once again looked utterly baffled.
But this ti, Elo didn't start explaining so adult knowledge; instead, he stretched his legs and the surrounding wind elents propelled him towards Gui Ao'er.
What exactly did he intend to do? No one present had a clue.
Elo himself had a simple plan; he just wanted to communicate with this "Ancient Dragon" in terms of age.
"He's coming! Get him!" In the City Lord's room, Red Teeth shook Gong Qiying's shoulder, the latter feeling like he was just playing along with kids.
In the Dragon Tomb region, at the mont Elo began to move, Gui Ao'er lifted her head. Her movents appeared sluggish and heavy, clearly requiring effort.
"Hello~"
Suddenly, Elo's figure appeared extrely close to Gui Ao'er. An astonishing thing happened; he actually instantaneously moved from a position roughly on Gui Ao'er's back to where her head was located in the blink of an eye!
Even Japar didn't possess such speed, at least not noticeably under normal circumstances!
What formidable physical prowess!
"Roar—"
Gui Ao'er's roar erupted at this mont, not showing any surprise at his speed.
Perhaps it was because she had seen sothing even faster before, like beings that could control thunderclouds.
An almost tangible shockwave surged madly from Gui Ao'er's mouth towards the outside world, a mighty roar that could daze the entire Skyrim Strategy Group even from a distance, and Elo stood right by her mouth, at the closest possible proximity!
The shockwave exploded directly on him, and his enchanted clothing was instantly obliterated, revealing a body that resembled a human but was covered in scales on the surface.
Golden scales cracked under the blast of the shockwave, scattering as golden powder, reminiscent of a Magic Girl reverting back from her transformation.
As an unguarded attack seed about to land directly on him, Elo just smiled.
With just a tremor of his body, the scales regenerated, and the newly grown scales remarkably reduced the cracking speed against the shockwave, though ultimately not entirely avoiding destruction.
However, the second ti the scales grew, they perfectly resisted the roar.
This was equivalent to Elo adapting to Gui Ao'er's roar.
"Just like my mom's loud voice, bringing back lots of wonderful mories."
Elo picked his ear and showed an exceptionally kind expression as he gentlemanly said:
"Have you cald down? I ca to talk."
He believed that under Gui Ao'er's fierce exterior, there was a communicable core. He could hear emotions in her roar, even if they were full of noise.
The Dragon Clan could always sense emotions to so extent from the dragon roars within Sain Dungeon, though they almost always contained a desire to kill and were fragnted, unlike normal communication.
It might be because they were creations of the dungeon.
But Gui Ao'er seed different from those Flying Dragons; she bore the marks of ti, and perhaps normal communication was possible.
Elo had always yearned to communicate with ancient beings because—
"I want to understand the things of the past, what really happened."
He said to Gui Ao'er while spreading his hands to show he ant no harm.
Gui Ao'er's roar gradually subsided, her eyes fixed on Elo, as if scrutinizing him.
"Grandpa is aweso!" Abel waved his paw to cheer Elo on, and the Little Dragon Gate beside him was also shouting, "Clan leader mighty, clan leader forever!" playing their role as the atmosphere group diligently.
"You see, those over there are my juniors. The fact that I dared to bring them here ans I have no ill intentions."
Elo's tone grew increasingly calm and gentle, finally switching from the common language to communicating using the Dragon Clan's exclusive roar.
The scene appeared more and more peaceful, as if a landmark conversation was about to succeed.
"Roar..."
Gui Ao'er made a low sound and slowly opened her mouth. Was that a sign of wanting to communicate?
But the next second, Elo's world went dark.
"Gollum!"
Gui Ao'er tilted her head back and swallowed Elo whole.
At this mont, the atmosphere group looked as if ti had paused.
The eerie "Gollum" sound echoed in their ears for a long ti.
"Grandfather!?"
