"Are you able to control it?"
Seeing that Bati seemed to be gradually recovering from the pain, Roddy was still worried and asked. Edith frowned and glanced at it. "The Magic Tower's energy may not be able to last for too long, but there are hundreds of dragons in the tower now. Do you need their help?"
"Don't let them out!"
Roddy immediately rejected this suggestion. Bati had already tricked five Dragons. If this guy mutated and caused more dragons to be "infected", it would really shake the foundation of the dragons …
"It's best if they can help with magic support, but they must be in the Magic Tower."
"That's no problem. I'll go ask."
Edith did not talk nonsense, but Roddy directly proposed a plan. "Show them what happened on the battlefield. These guys know what to do!"
"Prime Minister, then you …"
"Cover me. I'll go confirm the situation of Kardashian and the others!"
After Rody finished speaking, he threw away the crystal cannon and jumped down from the platform.
He was still dressed as a mercenary. Due to the previous battle, he had a short bow slung across his body. There were only a few arrows left in his quiver. Since he had used up almost all of them when he faced Barty, Rody did not have the time to tidy them up. He cast a levitation spell in the air, and when he landed, he activated his Leap and Sprint skills and quickly ran towards Barty.
Edith understood the urgency of the battle. She pushed her hands to both sides and dragged Essien and Stika away from Bati, who were gradually regaining their sanity under the light of the "Viper's Kiss".
At this time, although Kardashian, Iscar, and Rubens had not completely mutated, they were covered with wounds in the continuous battle. Iscar's neck was bloody, and Kardashian's abdomen had a big hole, even her internal organs could be seen.
"Don't fight recklessly! Stand down! "
Roddy shouted at them, and Kardashian obeyed immediately. Her body quickly changed back to human form, and she floated back to the ground with the help of magic. Iscar and Rubens also retreated from the central battlefield. When they turned around, Essien and Stika had also returned to their human forms. Sally's divine spell had restored their sanity, but after the transformation, they looked completely different from before. Even in his human form, his body was covered in scales and bone spikes. He looked very similar to Natha, who was not far away.
Obviously, the Viper's Kiss could only alleviate the pain. It was still a distance away from being able to cure it. Kardashian sat paralyzed on the ground, gasping for breath to freeze the wound on her abdomen. The cold suppressed the pain, but the edge of the wound had a purple halo that was constantly spreading.
"Damn it … something isn't right!"
Rubens, who was at the side, was not a spoiled young master. His ability to endure pain was extremely strong, but at this time, his face was twisted because of the intense burning sensation from the wound. Iscar was also in so much pain that he could not speak. Kardashian clenched her teeth and looked up to see Roddy running over. She immediately said anxiously, "What are you doing here?! Go back to the Magic Tower quickly! "
In front of the other Dragons, Kardashian had always been careful not to let the relationship between her and Roddy be exposed. But at this moment, she could not care about acting — but Roddy was equally anxious. He rushed over and shouted directly, "Don't move! Stay still! "
In the past, it was Kardashian who liked to take the initiative, but when Roddy really spoke seriously, she would definitely listen. At this time, after being shouted at by Roddy, she, who originally wanted to get up, obediently stopped moving. After Roddy rushed over, the waves that were spreading from the wounds of the others immediately made him feel that it was troublesome …
He turned his head and glanced at the top of the Magic Tower, where Sally's scepter was pointing. The light continued to radiate, and the shadows of three snakes were circling in the air. Compared to her performance on the battlefield a few months ago, her current control of the scepter was obviously a notch higher. But even so, the condition of the five Dragons continued to deteriorate.
Everything in front of him pointed to one fact: the guy behind Bati was probably already able to compete with the gods.
But now he had no time to think about the problem of "whether there were gods among the demons". After Roddy got closer, he carefully checked the status of Kardashian: after his "Witcher's Vision" was opened, the purple light of the demon waves was abnormally dazzling. They spread like a spider web all over the bodies of these Dragons, but the most condensed was the Dragon Crystal on their chests …
The dissipated energy of the Dragon Crystal became the source of these demon waves. With every spread of the light of the Dragon Crystal, the purple light also spread once to every corner of the body — the light of the Viper's Kiss was trying hard to swallow the purple "spider web", but the energy of the Dragon Crystal was far more than that of the ordinary Magic Crystal, and the spreading waves were always faster than the dissipation of the divine magic …
"Listen to me, everyone."
Roddy looked at Essien and Stika, who had changed their appearance. Both of them were not in pain like the others, but their expressions were a little dazed and sometimes awake.
"Prime Minister, do you have a solution?"
Rubens' forehead was wet. Obviously, the Dragons would also sweat because of the pain. Roddy did not talk nonsense and said directly, "The key problem of the invasion of the demons now is the Dragon Crystal. It provides the energy for the demon infection. If the Dragon Crystal is still there, I am afraid that the infection will not be controlled at all!"
The dragons were not fools. A simple sentence was enough for them to figure out the reason behind it. They felt it themselves and knew that the power in their bodies was constantly being absorbed.
Essien looked down at his mutated hands and said, "Then it seems that taking out the Dragon Crystal is the only way."
"Are you crazy?!"
Stika shouted, but then he understood … If they did not do this, the consequences would not be as simple as Queo and Morales.
The two former lords had only been infected by a small part of the magic circle. In comparison, the five of them could be said to be "beyond cure". If it were not for Sally's efforts, he and Essien would have completely lost their minds.
"Continue to be ourselves, or become a demon? This is a good choice. "
Essien quickly made a decision while his mind was still clear. After saying that, he raised his hand and cut a hole in his chest. His palm grasped at thin air, and he used his magic to dig out his Dragon Crystal on the spot!
This scene was not unfamiliar to Roddy. Merlinsera had taken out the Shadow Dragon Crystal in front of him. He had never imagined that he would be able to witness the same scene for the second time in his life …
The Dragon Crystal's origin that Essien had condensed into a spear was not far away. As he took out the Dragon Crystal, the spear turned into a beam of light and returned to the Dragon Crystal's body — but at this time, the Dragon Crystal was not the pale white of the normal crystal Dragons. Instead, it was mixed with black dye. This also showed the severity of the corrosion … A few of the Dragon Race were very clear that with the dragon crystal in such a state, it would probably be impossible for it to recover.
