Report

Sui Xiong was not sure if the red dragon sleeping in the magma was the supervillain Uherskreider, but if it was, then as a decent person — or a decent jellyfish, he felt that he had the responsibility to enforce justice on behalf of heaven. He would smash the villain's head open, pull out his soul, put it into the blue ice fire of his own divine power, and give it a warm massage that would last for a hundred years.

But if it wasn't, then it was another matter.

"We can't let go of the bad guys, but first of all, we can't wrongly accuse the good guys. Innocence is one of the signs of the progress of the rule of law," Sui Xiong muttered in his heart and searched around the crater.

To convict, he needed witnesses and material evidence.

He soon found the target, which was located at the end of the stream, next to a deep pool that led to an unknown place, and there was a small underground forest.

Because of the lack of sunlight, the trees here grew in strange shapes. They were neither tall nor lush, and there was a kind of morbid strangeness. In the forest, a group of Elves, who were dressed in rags and had dirt all over their faces, were lying on the ground in a mess like Somali refugees.

"Very well, we have witnesses and material evidence." Looking at these elves, who were obviously kidnapped, Sui Xiong noticed that there were many burn scars on their bodies, and he nodded slightly.

This was quite reliable material evidence. The next thing to do was to find a witness and carefully question them.

Of course, these elves were not so thick-skinned that they could still sleep next to the evil dragon, but they were hypnotized by the power of magic. A huge magic circle covered the whole forest, covering all the elves inside. Sui Xiong glanced at it and saw that the magic circle was not difficult, and it was nothing more than a hypnotic magic. But with a series of special structures, the effect of the magic was greatly enhanced, so that the elves, who should not be affected by the hypnotic magic under normal circumstances, were actually put down by it, and even none of them succeeded in resisting it.

If the red dragon was the one who designed this magic circle, then it was really versatile.

Of course, there were plenty of dragons with many talents. In fact, as long as one lived long enough, it was difficult not to be versatile. When the growth of strength could only rely on the passage of time to slowly accumulate, apart from learning various skills to kill time, what else could be used as a pastime in the endless years?

Oh, the dragons had other ways. They could sleep. He slept for three to five years in one go, and time passed just like that.

In order to increase their strength while sleeping, dragons would often choose a place to sleep that was suitable for their attributes. For example, the Red Dragon would choose to sleep in lava, the White Dragon would choose to sleep in an ice cave, the Rock Dragon would choose to sleep in a pile of rocks, and the Ice Dragon would choose to sleep in ice …

The red dragon suspected to be Uherskreider was a good example.

After observing for a while, Sui Xiong raised a few tentacles and quickly drew a few magic symbols in the air. Then, his magic flowed and formed a small magic array, which was firmly embedded in the original magic array. It was as if a hole had been opened in it. Blue smoke wriggled into it and, like tentacles, wrapped around one of the elves who had obviously stronger life energy and dragged him out.

Sui Xiong wrapped his tentacles around the elf and fixed her on his back. Then, he canceled his spell and quickly left the underground cave with the elf on his back, returning to the surface.

Only then did he cast a spell to wake the elf up.

To be honest, the communication between the jellyfish and the elf was not very pleasant. The elf, who was already frightened by the mere twang of a bow, was very flustered. If it were not for Sui Xiong's strong suppression, he would have run away in a panic to inform his people.

But in the face of the powerful weird jellyfish, his resistance was useless, and all he could do was to cooperate obediently.

When he learned that Sui Xiong had come to find trouble with the evil red dragon and was verifying whether it had committed a crime, he was so excited that he even gesticulated with his hands and feet, trying to express the resentment in his heart.

According to him, the Red Dragon had come without any warning. Before that, their village had never had any interaction with the Giant Dragon, let alone any conflict. As a village located in the depths of the Ancient Forest, they had always lived a peaceful life. Except for the caravans that passed by regularly, they had almost no contact with the outside world.

The elf emphasized the word "any" several times. It could be seen that he was very concerned about the inexplicable attack and was very indignant — an undeserved disaster was the most difficult thing to accept.

Then, the red dragon came to attack. Its method of attack was the same as the legendary "brutal burner" Uherskreider. First, it indiscriminately breathed fire and burned the village into a sea of fire. Then it crouched next to the sea of fire, enjoying the miserable situation of the villagers struggling in the sea of fire while chewing and swallowing several elf children that it had conveniently grabbed.

At that time, the elf with good strength was lucky enough to escape from the sea of fire. Seeing this scene, he recklessly rushed towards the giant dragon, wanting to at least leave a wound on this brutal giant beast.

Then, he was knocked out until now.

The more the elf said, the sadder and angrier he became. He clenched his fists tightly. Because he used too much strength, his nails pierced his palms, and blood dripped down, but he did not notice it.

His body kept trembling, not because of fear, but because of uncontrollable grief and indignation.

If he were in front of the evil dragon at that moment, he would not hesitate to rush up and fight with the villain!

Sui Xiong had been listening silently. He suppressed the anger in his heart, forced himself to calm down, and carefully watched the heart of the elf, alert for possible lies. The elf's heart was full of anger and pain, without any conspiracy or lies.

And the cruel scenes reflected in his heart were very similar to what Sui Xiong had seen in the heart of the strong aristocrat of the Geerteng Territory. But it was clearer, more brutal, and more evil.

Sui Xiong looked at it many times, and finally closed his eyes and threw a cloud of ice mist on his head.

The cruel scene made him angry, and if he did not calm himself down, he might become violent.

This was not good. If he wanted to fight, he must be calm!

"Very well, now I can be sure that it will not be a wrong case." The floating jellyfish sneered and raised its tentacles.

The blue light flickered, and the elf felt a deep exhaustion from the bottom of his heart in an instant. He could not even resist for a moment and fell asleep.

With a roll of his tentacles, Sui Xiong caught the body of the elf that almost fell to the ground. After thinking for a moment, he used a memory-weaving spell on the elf, and then temporarily created a small shelter in the tree next to him and put him in it.

"Have a good sleep. When you wake up, the nightmare will be over."

He was very confident in his spell. The elf would absolutely not wake up in two or three hours, and even if he woke up in the future, he would lose a period of memory.

In this way, the whole thing could be done silently and without anyone noticing.

"I do good deeds without leaving my name. I really deserve to be a good person who grew up singing 'learn from a good example'!"

After coming to the depths of the cave for the second time, Sui Xiong no longer hesitated and flew straight to the sleeping red dragon in the magma.

"Uherskreider, you have done a lot of evil, and today is the time for evil to be repaid!"

Last time, he did not really get close to the crater, because there were obviously several operating magic arrays around the dragon's body, which provided it with sufficient warning and defense. If he approached it rashly, he would definitely trigger the magic arrays and wake it up.

The dragon that was awakened from a deep sleep had a bad temper, as evidenced by the graupel. Except for when facing snowflakes, she did not dare to get angry, even if it was her brother who woke her up, she would be furious.

Sui Xiong was not sure whether this red dragon was a bad guy before, so of course, he did not want to get into trouble.

But this time was different. He was here to find trouble!

No, he was not here to find trouble. He was here to eradicate evil and enforce justice on behalf of heaven!

The floating jellyfish's body shook, and its body, which was originally only the size of a hat, suddenly expanded hundreds of times, and instantly became a behemoth of more than ten meters. If all its tentacles were spread out, it would be enough to entangle the dragon.

Although it might not be necessary to fight hand-to-hand, it was always better to be prepared first.

Sure enough, when he was still some distance away from the crater, the ground suddenly lit up with magic light, and a wonderful magic array appeared around him.

Sui Xiong saw what this array was at a glance — it had three effects, namely, alarm, restraint, and curse. It could immediately wake up the originally sleeping dragon and provide it with an absolutely favorable condition to start a war.

The magic light turned into black chains, entangling Sui Xiong's body. These chains were dark, revealing a dangerous atmosphere that made people's hearts palpitate. At first glance, it was obvious that they were not good things.

But Sui Xiong was not afraid. He waved his tentacles, and the blue light was like a sharp blade, cutting toward the magic chains. With a crisp sound, all the chains suddenly fell apart, and even the magic array collapsed together. It did not have any effect at all.

No, it still had an effect. At least it had completed the task of alarm.

The dragon, which was floating in the magma and sleeping soundly, was awakened!

The huge red dragon suddenly opened its eyes, and the brilliance of magic rose from its body.

Circles of light emerged one after another, and suddenly there were several layers of magic armor on the dragon's body. Its whole figure became blurred, and there were colorful magic light balls around it, like satellites.

"It's a trigger spell, but there are so many … This guy is not only a villain, but also a powerful spellcaster!" Sui Xiong was secretly surprised, and he became a little more vigilant.

As everyone knew, spellcasters were the most terrible enemies. They had a strong instantaneous explosive force, excellent control and auxiliary abilities, and an unimaginable ability to escape. Especially those high-level spellcasters, they must have one or two predetermined spells (most of them were teleportation spells). Once a certain condition was met, it would be triggered, and it would take effect immediately without chanting. If it was in their magic tower, the number of spells that could be triggered would be several times more.

At the moment, Sui Xiong saw such a scene.
