"Are these … tree roots?"
Javelin touched the protruding thing on the ground. Although the light here couldn't see clearly, it could feel a familiar touch.
"Why are there tree roots here?"
…
Something had happened.
For some reason, Lin had this feeling. Although Lin had expected it, it didn't seem to have much to do with the Sea King or the Atte Tribe. It was something … else.
Lin hadn't just been observing the battle recently. At the same time, she also searched for some information in the library of the castle on the Skeletal Dragon Island, especially information about the Skeletal Dragons when they arrived on the island.
Most of the Skeletal Dragons lived in the center of the continent. When they traveled west, they passed by a very strange place, and some things about that place were recorded … "This place is full of huge tree roots. We walked on these huge tree roots and headed west." That was what was written on the stone slab.
The magical place with tree roots everywhere wasn't recorded in detail, but Lin believed that it was where the rift valley was located now. This explained the traces found at the bottom of the rift valley and on the rock walls.
But what exactly were these tree roots? Why did they disappear? It was hard to confirm, but what was certain was that they didn't disappear …
Besides, these creatures could exist in many places at the same time. Not only in the rift valley, but also in the salt land. Lin also discovered similar root fragments in … Standing Scorpion City.
At the same time, on the ground …
"Gaaaah! Go to hell! "A giant jellyfish flew in the sky. It swung its tentacles violently. The top of one of the pyramids was sent flying. Mukla, who was riding on a wyvern in front, dodged it immediately and flew into the sky.
"Gaha, don't run away. Accept the punishment of the creator!" Jing Kuang yelled from the back of the jellyfish. Even though it didn't do anything, the jellyfish gave Susumi and Mukla a headache.
"We can't shake it off … Although it's huge, it's very agile." Mukla pulled the wyvern and flew around the city. They could only use the few huge pyramids to avoid the jellyfish. Although they could fly far away and shake off the jellyfish, they obviously didn't want to leave this place.
The city was still in the midst of war.
Whoosh! Countless arrows flew through the streets of the city. Nobody knew when the White Skeleton Dragon's strategy of charging at the Emerald Dragon had changed to one where everyone hid behind rocks or shields and shot at each other with crossbows and arrows.
The main reason for this incident was that many Skeleton Dragon captains realized that charging all the way would cost them too much, so they decided to fight a war of attrition instead.
The White Skeleton Dragon obviously had more weapons and arrows than the Emerald Dragon. After both sides started shooting at each other from a distance, the number of casualties on both sides was almost the same. If this continued, the Emerald Dragon would be at a disadvantage.
However, they could not directly attack the White Skeleton Dragon. They could only be surrounded and trapped in this kind of battle, although the current situation was not good. However, it was hard to say what would happen in the end …
"This war … has lasted for so long."
A few gray figures climbed up the sloping wall of a huge pyramid. They looked down at the battle situation from above and quickly climbed up.
The sloping walls of the pyramid closer to the center were very slippery. Only the Skeleton Dragons, who were good at climbing, could climb up. Fei Mao could also climb because he had been training in the Dragon Habitat Forest for a long time.
With this ability, they could move quickly on the pyramid and sneak into Scorpion City very easily.
"Are we … not participating in the battle? Leader Lidl? "a Skeleton Dragon asked Lidl, who was at the front.
"Leader Tucker brought us here to kill those White Skeleton Dragons," Lidl said. "But after the battle, we realized that no matter which side wins, it won't benefit us, so we decided not to do anything for now and wait for them to fight to the end."
"That's where they're going." Lidl led the Skeleton Dragons to a place near the top of the pyramid. He climbed in through the window on the sloping wall.
"This is …" The moment he entered, Lidl saw two Skeleton Dragons lying on the ground. One of them was pierced in the chest by an arrow, while the other was pierced in the stomach by a sword.
"Caw!" The Skeleton Dragons looked at the scene in shock. They would feel sad even if they were unfamiliar with the death of their own kind, because they valued their companions very much.
"Caw …" At this moment, the Skeleton Dragon that was pierced in the chest by an arrow suddenly groaned. Lidl quickly ran over and said, "Ho Chan! Are you still alive? Quick, come and treat it! "
"No need …" Ho Chan used all his strength to speak intermittently. "This … was done by the King … Fei Mao was thrown down from here … maybe … caw … he's still alive … leader … go … find …"
Before it could finish its sentence, its voice stopped.
"…" Liddle did not say anything. He placed Huo Jiang's body and the other Skeleton Dragon on the ground. The other Skeleton Dragons also formed a circle around them. They took out miniature figurines that looked like pompoms from their bags and placed them on their chests.
"Their souls will return to the realm of pompoms," Lidl said. He looked out the window and said, "Now, do what we have to do."
The Skeleton Dragons put away their sad thoughts and said together, "Caw!"
"Whoosh!" At this moment, a sudden gust of wind blew outside the window. A Viper flew past the window at high speed, followed by a huge creature.
"That's …!" Lidl climbed to the window and looked at the Viper that was being chased by the Sky Jellyfish in the distance. He said, "Yes, that's the leader. They seem to be preparing to come back! Get ready, attack when they pass by this place again! Also, Benbo and Qiba, go down and look for Fei Mao. "
"Caw!" The Skeleton Dragons raised their spears and other weapons and came to the window. Another two Skeleton Dragons climbed down from the pyramid.
"Caw! Mugu can fly continuously for hundreds of days and nights. Do you think you can escape? If you continue like this, you'll die of exhaustion sooner or later. It'll be much easier to kill them! "Jing Kuang was still shouting on the Sky Jellyfish." Mugu "was the name of the jellyfish among the Skeleton Dragons.
"King! Didn't you feel a little shaky just now? "a guard said to Jing Kuang as he braved the gust of wind caused by the Sky Jellyfish.
"What are you talking about?" Jing Kuang was interrupted. He said angrily, "We're flying. Of course we're shaky!"
"It's not us that's shaking …" the guard said. "It's the building below that's shaking … It's like an earthquake …"
"We're shaking ourselves. How can you tell if the building is shaking or not?" Jing Kuang said impatiently. "Why are you telling me such strange things?" Jing Kuang looked ahead and said, "Caw, they're going in the same direction again. It seems like they want to tire themselves to death! But before that, you'll be finished! Mugu, attack them with flying thorns! "
Jing Kuang had said this many times, but the Sky Jellyfish didn't respond before. But this time, after Jing Kuang said this, the Sky Jellyfish seemed to understand. It raised its tentacles and aimed at the Viper in front.
Whoosh! Many needles about the size of small arrows shot out from the front of the tentacles. They hit the Viper's body and made a series of crackling sounds. Although most of the needles were deflected by the scales of the Viper, one of them happened to pierce the gap between Mukla's helmet and chest plate.
This needle had a paralyzing poison. After being stabbed, Mukla suddenly collapsed on the Viper's back. Susumi was shocked. "Mukla!"
"Get ready! They're coming! " At this time, the Viper was just about to approach the pyramid. The Skeleton Dragons immediately raised their spears and threw them at the Viper!
Boom!
But the moment before the Skeleton Dragons threw their spears, the whole pyramid shook violently. This caused the Skeleton Dragons to miss their target.
"This is …" Liddell looked around. Due to the tremors just now, a large number of cracks had appeared on the ceiling of the room, and they were still increasing. The entire pyramid seemed to be on the verge of collapsing. Liddell immediately shouted, "Get out of here!"
"What the hell is that?" Susumi had already personally piloted the viper dragon. Obviously, it had also noticed the tremor just now. Not only it, but the Emerald Dragon and the White Skeleton Dragon that were fighting below also noticed it. Some of them stopped fighting and looked around in confusion …
"King! This place is really shaking! "On the back of the Aerial Jellyfish, the guard said excitedly to Jing Kuang," King! Something dangerous might happen here! "
"… I know!" Jing Kuang obviously also noticed the shaking just now because the sound was quite obvious. After thinking for a while, he said, "Is there any way to go down?"
The guard replied, "There are still some airbags here. We should be able to go down."
"Very good. Then you go down with those airbags!" Jing Kuang said, "Go and tell the captains below to retreat from the city and surround the whole city!"
"Huh?" The guard was stunned. "I go?"
"That's right!" Jing Kuang said. "As long as we stand on the plains, the earthquake will not affect us. But the green things in the city can only wait for death!"
"What are you waiting for?"
"Huh!" It hurriedly ran to the edge of the Aerial Jellyfish's back. There were some airbags tied here that could allow the Skeleton Dragons to fly down.
Jing Kuang still stayed on the Aerial Jellyfish. He still wanted to see Susumi being chased to death by it.
But …
Boom!
This time, the shaking was even more violent. Even from high up in the sky, one could see the obvious huge cracks on the ground. Floating astronomy.
