"Do you even know what you're doing?!"
The three Dragons obviously didn't intend to introduce themselves. They were used to being superior and didn't care about mortals at all. They didn't expect to get an answer to their question either. It was just a question of reproach.
The middle-aged man ignored Roddy and Merinsera and pointed at Luther. A huge wave of magic surged out and surrounded Elder Teflin. Tiny flames appeared around him, and under Luther's horrified gaze, the Dragons began to chant a profound incantation.
Roddy frowned as he looked at the three of them. He realized that the middle-aged man had completely ignored everyone else and was concentrating on his experiment on Luther. Meanwhile, the gray-haired woman behind him was staring at Roddy and Merinsera. Although she didn't move, Roddy knew that if he tried to stop her, he would be killed instantly.
As for the bald man, Roddy still couldn't figure him out because his poker face didn't even blink. He didn't look at Luther or anyone else. His eyes were staring blankly ahead. His empty gaze made Roddy suspect that his face was a mask.
The huge difference in strength between them made Roddy afraid to speak. With his identity as a "Dragon Slayer", he wouldn't have a good ending if he spoke rashly. However, Roddy knew that these guys would eventually ask him questions, so he kept his mouth shut and tried to think of a good time to start the conversation …
Merinsera was extremely nervous at this moment. Roddy didn't understand the inner workings of the Dragons, so he didn't know who these people were. However, she knew who these three people were. The one who was casting the spell was called Iscar, and he was the pillar of the younger generation of the Red Dragons. The gray-haired woman beside him was the daughter of the Frost Dragons' chief, Cassandra. Their positions were similar to hers, and they were both direct descendants of the chief. Their families were much richer than ordinary Frost Dragons, and they had countless trump cards.
The last one was the one that terrified Merlinsera the most … because it was the Crystal Dragons that were experts in illusionary magic!
Although "Dream Creation", "Mind Control", "Hypnosis" and other illusions were not as powerful as other elemental spells, a powerful illusionist was someone that other Dragons did not want to provoke — because it was very likely that they would only be fighting an illusion for a long time.
To the other Dragons, the Crystal Dragons had always been a little "cold". They almost never participated in the Dragons' activities. They would only participate occasionally when something big happened. Although Merinthra had never seen any Crystal Dragons in battle, she still remembered her father's words, "Don't mess with the Crystal Dragons".
Thinking of this, she really lamented that Roddy was a newborn calf that was not afraid of tigers. There were probably only a handful of humans who could remain unfazed in the face of these three formidable giant dragons.
At this moment, Luther was tormented by Iscar's magic to the point that he could neither stand nor sit. The Red Dragons were proficient in fire magic, so he did not care if the other party was in pain when he tested his Demon Bloodline. So, the feeling of his blood boiling was really torturous for Luther.
With the end of the spell, Iskar also got the result he wanted. However, he did not seem to be in a good mood. He frowned slightly and said to his companions behind him in the Dragon language, "They should be the ones Augustine is looking for."
He had no intention of paying attention to the others in the room, but this short sentence allowed Roddy to quickly grasp the key point. He did not understand the Dragon language, but he could clearly hear the word "Augustine" in the syllables. Thinking quickly, Roddy immediately seized the opportunity. While the three Dragons were silent, he suddenly said, "Your Excellency, we have just confirmed that these 'Mutants' are Augustine's targets."
This sentence had the same meaning as Iscar had said, but coming from Roddy's mouth, it was surprising. Iscar and Kardashian turned to look at Roddy at the same time. This sudden increase in mental pressure did not make Roddy flinch. Instead, the slightly surprised look in their eyes confirmed his guess!
He knew this was the best time to change the topic, so he immediately continued, "I led a team from the Kingdom of Karen to deal with Augustine's army. But after we entered Tasman, we encountered these 'Mutants'. I used force to conquer them, but then Augustine's men attacked my team accurately. I defeated and captured the leader of that team. He is Augustine's disciple, and he is now in the next room. "
He spoke so quickly that he did not even give Iscar time to ask questions. Roddy did this in order to throw out as much information as possible so that he would not be in a passive position. When he emphasized 'Augustine' several times, he stared at Iscar and found that the other party was obviously afraid of this name. However, the Frost Dragon curled his lips slightly, looking indignant.
These three dragons were all young. Apart from the crystal dragon who always had a poker face, Iscar and Kardashian were typical "God's favored ones." They were far less shrewd than those old monsters. So with just a slight change in their expressions, Roddy could see a lot of things.
The two dragons did not answer after hearing Roddy's words. Instead, they first looked at the silent crystal dragon. The latter still had a blank expression and slowly nodded to them. "He did not lie."
Obviously, this illusionary crystal dragon could tell the truth from the lies of Roddy's words.
Roddy's heart skipped a beat. He secretly rejoiced that he had made the right choice.
After confirming that Roddy did not make things up, Kardashian was obviously interested in his words. However, when she saw the "Dragon Slayer Mark" flashing in Roddy's left eye, her gaze instantly became unfriendly.
Roddy immediately pointed to his eye and said, "I obtained this mark by chance in the Silent Forest. At that time, two dragons were fighting, and it affected the team that I was leading. In the end, one of the dragons died on the spot, which caused me to become like this …"
When these words came out, the expressions of the two Dragons softened a little. After all, they were not fools. The "Dragon Slayer Mark" would be cast on everyone nearby when a dragon died, including but not limited to the dragon slayer. Roddy and Merinthra did not seem to have the strength to kill a dragon no matter how they looked at it.
Roddy struck while the iron was hot. As he spoke, he reached out and pulled out the necklace around his neck. When the purple Shadow Dragon Dragon Crystal appeared, Iscar and Kardashian's expressions instantly changed!
"Shadow Dragons!?"
While exclaiming in surprise, they did not forget to look at the Crystal Dragon. The latter still had that poker face. "He did not lie."
Kardashian could not hide her emotions. She immediately snatched the Dragon Crystal and tapped the surface of the Dragon Crystal with her fingertip. After a "ding" sound, a faint wave spread out …
"It's Merinthra! That traitor is finally dead! "
Kardashian cursed with a ruthless expression. Iscar narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly. "No wonder there has been no news of her in the past six months. Back then, she beat my brother half to death …"
These two Dragons obviously hated Merinthra, but they had no idea that the culprit was standing right beside them. At this moment, when Merinthra saw them gnashing their teeth, she felt both anger and inexplicable pleasure in her heart.
She wanted revenge, but she also knew that now was not the time. However, looking at their reactions, Merinthra felt a huge weight lifted off her shoulders. After what happened today, the entire Dragons would know that "Merinthra is dead". From then on, the Dragons would completely let down their guard against the name "Merinthra", and she would no longer have to worry about being recognized by the Dragons!
She really owed Roddy another huge favor …
With Roddy's timely explanation, Kardashian's original hostility immediately dissipated, but what was left was arrogance. "Tell me, who was fighting with Merinthra?"
Roddy was not offended and replied obediently, "It was a Frost Dragon. I heard Merinthra call him … Uh, Wissam …"
"It was Wissam! My brother has always been cunning. "As Kardashian spoke, she frowned." But why hasn't he returned to the Dragon Territory yet … "
That's because he was dismembered by me, silly girl.
Although Roddy replied in his heart, he still wore a humble smile on his face. He bowed slightly and didn't reply because he was afraid that Merinthra would ask more specific questions … If he exposed himself now, he would be done for.
Fortunately, it was normal for Dragons to not return to the Dragon Territory for a year or two, so the matter of Wissam didn't make Kardashian suspicious. She thought of the purpose of her visit and immediately followed up on Roddy's description. She ordered, "You said you captured a Necromancer, right? Go and call him over. "
Dragons were Dragons after all. They were so bossy that it was almost instinctive. She's just a little girl. What right does she have to order Rody around like this?! "Merlinsala was suddenly enraged by Rody's attitude.
However, Roddy didn't seem to be humiliated at all. He nodded calmly and replied, "Yes, Your Excellency." After Iscar removed the barrier, he brought Yogesa over from next door. After Akasha sensed the fluctuation, she had been trying to break through the barrier in various ways. When Roddy came out, he knew that she was worried about him, so he whispered a few words into her ear and made her stop outside the house obediently.
Yogesa was originally controlled by the barrier and had been tortured by Akasha's spells for the past few days. So much so that when Roddy brought him out, he even felt grateful.
But just when he thought he had finally escaped from hell, the three horned Dragons in the living room made him shiver all over!
"I … I … you …"
He stuttered for a moment and couldn't speak at all. His brain almost crashed. He glanced at Roddy and found that Roddy just indifferently placed him in front of the three Dragons. Then, he silently retreated.
This time, it was the Crystal Dragon who came out. After Iscar whispered a few words to him, the bald man came to Yogesa expressionlessly. He raised his hand and pressed on Yogesa's head for a moment. When he released his hand, Yogesa's eyes rolled back and he fainted. The Crystal Dragon was still a man of few words. He told them all the details about Augustine in the Dragon Language.
With the evidence he personally extracted and Roddy's words corroborating each other, and the details of how Roddy defeated the undead, Iscar and Kardashian's trust in Roddy rose to another level.
At this time, the three Dragons finally recognized that Roddy was qualified to communicate with them, so they took the initiative to tell him their names.
