"Dragon Power", Roddy had only heard of it but never seen it. Dragons did not participate in the battles of mortals, so the players' understanding of it came from books. No one had seen the real "Dragon Power".
But at this moment, Roddy had personally experienced the terrifying deterrence of this "high-level creature" to humans.
The literal "paralysis for 1 minute" was only a description of the effect, but it was not as simple as standing still. The so-called "paralysis" was because the brain was unable to suppress the fear, directly causing the body to be unable to move!
The boundless "fear" that emerged in his mind caused Roddy's consciousness to be on the verge of collapse. But the remaining trace of reason in his mind forcibly pulled him back from the brink of collapse.
The body's paralysis effect continued, but his consciousness gradually recovered. Roddy turned his eyeballs and immediately discovered a strange fact. The Nokia was crawling towards him at the city gate, seemingly not affected by the Dragon Power at all.
Roddy could not figure out the reason behind this. He wanted to move his body, but this movement suddenly caused his head to suddenly feel a splitting pain.
This was exactly the same feeling he felt every time he used the Magic Pet skill. But then Roddy felt a trace of consciousness return to his fingertips. He gritted his teeth, endured the headache and continued to work hard. Finally, with a roar, he successfully broke free from the "Dragon Power"!
"You have resisted the Dragon Power."
"You have gained immunity to the Dragon Power."
[Battle Log Bar] showed these two lines of prompts. Roddy, who was holding his knees and gasping for breath, was a little stunned. He immediately turned his head to look around. The others in his field of vision were still frozen in place because of the "Dragon Power". No one had successfully broken free like him.
Explosions and muffled sounds rang in his ears. Roddy did not have the mood to think about anything else. Dragons were creatures that should not have any interaction with him. He was not here to slay dragons. No matter who was in conflict with the Dragons nearby, the first thing he needed to do was not to investigate the situation, but to quickly leave and avoid any possible losses!
Roddy was anxious, but he could only continue to lead the team out of the fortress after a long thirty seconds. However, just as the entire team took a few steps, the soldiers suddenly discovered that … the stone road covered in grass was slowly spreading a large patch of white frost.
*****
One minute ago.
When Lucius used the power of the Tooth of Mourning to break the boundary, a deafening dragon roar sounded, and Dragon Power swept through the entire team of arcanists. But the prepared Elder of the Sacred Guild raised his staff in time and completely blocked it with a Fear Immunity Boundary!
However, the power of Dragons did not lie in the Dragon Power. This skill was just like the simplest "Aura Release", and it was not even a "spell". When the enchantment was broken and the giant dark purple figure appeared in front of everyone, the arcanists could not help but take a deep breath even though they knew the purpose of this trip …
What appeared in front of them was a Shadow Dragon.
Its nearly twenty-meter-long body could only be considered "delicate" among Dragons, but when it spread its dark purple wings, it still brought an unimaginable sense of oppression to humans. The Shadow Dragon had two long curved horns on its head, and there was a bright halo in its purple eyes, representing its identity as an "orthodox Dragons." However, the moment this Shadow Dragon appeared, the experienced Lucius noticed a huge wound on its abdomen …
"As expected … it's seriously injured."
The Sacred Guild knew Dragons better than any other force. Unless they had no other choice, these powerful creatures were never willing to appear in the territory of other races … Ever since the Sacred Guild detected traces of Dragons in the Forest of Silence, they had guessed that the Shadow Dragon was forced to 'recuperate' here after being injured.
And now, it seemed that the Sacred Guild's judgment was completely correct.
Facing a Shadow Dragon, Lucius, as an elder of the Sacred Guild, could not help but feel a little nervous, but he was more excited. The Tooth of Sorrow in his hand not only had the effect of enhancing spells, but the energy it contained was also the key to this battle … The Tooth of Sorrow, which could be released twice, was his greatest trump card. Looking at the seriously injured Shadow Dragon in front of him, Lucius felt even more confident.
"Shadow Protection!"
Seeing the Shadow Dragon in front of him take a deep breath and raise its head, Lucius immediately cast a corresponding enchantment based on the other party's attributes …
Boom!
The power of the thick shadow element was astonishing. Even if it was just the aftermath of the sputtering, it could instantly corrode and break the surrounding trees that needed several people to encircle.
However, after this breath attack, the dragon showed a bit of surprise in its eyes — the Chaos Defense Barrier, which was cast by more than forty arcanists with all their strength, had blocked the attack without a single scratch!
"Reptile!"
With a roar, the Shadow Dragon spread its wings and leaped up. The moment it raised its front claws, they were wrapped in countless rotating shadow elements. With a flap of its wings, the Shadow Dragon smashed down in front of Lucius with tremendous force.
The more than forty arcanists had been chanting the incantation loudly. In the face of this terrifying attack, most of them looked as if they were facing death calmly. Some even closed their eyes, thinking that the enchantment would shatter … But the result shocked them.
"Bang!"
The enchantment did not shatter.
Not only that, but the Shadow Dragon was also pushed back by the Arcane Impact that Lucius had released with all his might!
The Shadow Dragon's roar was less angry and more frightened. The wound on its abdomen seemed to have been torn open by Lucius's attack, and colorful dragon blood splattered all over the ground. With heavy footsteps, the Shadow Dragon took a few steps back and immediately chanted the Dragon Incantation in a low voice.
For the Dragon Race, Dragon Breath, Draconic Aura, and physical attacks were all instantaneous. Basically, any creature that was hit by the "three consecutive attacks" would be completely crushed. However, if these three attacks were ineffective, then the "Dragon Incantation" would be the time to show the true strength of the Dragon Race. Because its power was enough to rival or even surpass the "Forbidden Spells" of human mages.
However, the Shadow Dragon's reaction was within Lucius's calculations. He took a step forward confidently, raised his hand, and said, "Arcane Meaning: Counterspell!"
Arcane spells enhanced by the Teeth of Mourning could be effective against creatures with strong magic resistance like the Shadow Dragon. At this time, the Counterspell unsurprisingly interrupted the Shadow Dragon's spellcasting!
The Shadow Dragon took two steps back in disbelief and then attacked with an even more violent Shadow Breath attack. But as the attack was blocked by the enchantment, the Arcanists were pleasantly surprised to find that the Shadow Dragon was not as strong as they had imagined.
Dragon? It's only so-so …
The Shadow Breath attacked again, but Lucius seized the opportunity and raised the Teeth of Mourning to release a dazzling light!
The thick shadow elements were split apart, and in the next moment, the dragon was hit by the light, and its body was sent flying backwards with a "boom"!
The Arcanists cheered as though they had witnessed a miracle. However, the cautious Lucius did not stop there. He held the Tooth of Mourning in his hand, and within five seconds after the dragon landed, he released Arcane Impacts one after another!
This time, the Shadow Dragon's roar was no longer as imposing as before. All that was left was unwillingness and anger.
The wounds on its chest and abdomen were torn open, and the blood on the ground was quickly covered by the dust from the arcane explosions. Seeing that the Shadow Dragon was no longer moving, Lucius slowly stopped.
Although the Holy Assembly wanted to deal with the Shadow Dragon, its primary objective was to 'capture' it alive. Only when the situation was out of control would they need to 'slay the dragon.' Now that the plan was going smoothly, Lucius naturally chose to 'capture' this Shadow Dragon alive.
More than seven hundred years ago, the High Elves had a 'glorious' history of capturing more than a dozen Shadow Dragons alive, so Lucius did not appear to be at a loss. After the incantation, countless silver chains extended from the top of the Teeth of Mourning, and in less than ten seconds, the dying Shadow Dragon was firmly bound.
"Elder, it's … over?"
The adjutant beside him sounded a little nervous.
Lucius did not look pleased. Although he was excited, he also felt that everything seemed to be going too smoothly. Was it because the Teeth of Mourning was too powerful, or was it because he was too well-prepared for this operation?
Staring at the tightly bound Shadow Dragon more than twenty meters away, Lucius quickly found that the Shadow Dragon's body seemed to be a little strange. Looking closely, he suddenly found that the Shadow Dragon's skin, which should have been tough scales, seemed to be melting rapidly!
"Something's wrong …"
His pupils shrank, and he turned his head and shouted to the Arcanists behind him, "Pay attention to maintaining the barrier!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lucius felt the surrounding scenery suddenly darken. Looking up, the Arcanists suddenly found that countless meteorites had fallen from above the barrier!
Lucius's expression changed drastically. "It's Dragon Language magic … The Shadow Dragon wasn't its real body!"
He raised his hand to strengthen the barrier, but a scream of horror suddenly came from the back of the team. Before Lucius could look back, a loud explosion accompanied by a huge tremor made him stagger and almost fall to the ground!
"Roar!"
A deafening dragon roar came from the rear of the team. When everyone was caught unprepared, the second "Dragon Language Spell" summoned "Shadow Flames" that were enough to burn a city to the ground. It covered the entire barrier in a moment!
With a poof, the Shadow Dragon's' illusion 'that was bound by the arcane spell completely dissipated, and the Shadow Dragon's' real body 'that appeared behind the barrier stood quietly, calmly looking at the enemies who wanted to kill it.
It slowly raised its dragon claws and stretched them forward …
"Crack!"
The barrier, which had gathered the power of more than forty Arcanists, burst like a soap bubble under this seemingly ordinary attack.
