According to Ugart's explanation, this fire dragon had always lived in the depths of the forbidden forest.
Elwyn couldn't help but secretly click his tongue. As expected of the dark ages eight hundred years ago, the forest surrounding Hogwarts actually had terrifying creatures like the fire dragon.
He stared dumbstruck at the enormous black fire dragon, not knowing how the fallen centaurs tamed it. This was too inconceivable.
The shadow of the fire dragon's enormous body flashed across the sky. Elwyn couldn't help but admit that compared to this extremely fierce looking fire dragon, they were too insignificant.
This black fire dragon seemed to be a hybrid between the Hehiti Islands Black Dragon and the Hungarian Tree Wasp, it had the same characteristics as them.
The dragon's body was about thirty feet long. Its black scales were rough, hard, and covered with bronze barbs. On its back was a row of ridges that were not deep but were as sharp as razors. At the tip of its tail was a hard arrowhead. It looked like a giant lizard.
It flapped its wings, quickly flying over Elwyn and Ugart's heads.
The fire dragon roared at the centaurs behind it, huffing and puffing. Before anyone could react, it suddenly dived forward, balls of flames shot out from its mouth that had long fangs, shooting towards the centaurs below.
It opened its bloody mouth, swallowing a centaur that was struggling to dodge.
The centaur's broken body was flung to the side, the black fire dragon landed on the ground, its several tons of weight causing the earth to shake. It used its body to support itself, raising its neck high up, its mouth was fifty feet above the ground.
The fire dragon roared, lowering its head and spraying out mushroom shaped fire clouds in all directions.
The centaurs fled in all directions, the arrows that had never failed before were unable to penetrate the fire dragon's hard scales. It desperately twisted and stamped its feet, its spiky tail wildly swinging to the sides, leaving behind a dozen feet of potholes on the hard ground.
"We need to retreat into the forest, our losses will be too great." Ugart angrily said, tightly gripping onto the spear in his hand.
In front of them, a large number of fallen centaurs were holed up at the end of the only path leading to the Moon Temple. They seemed to have made up their minds, relying on the favorable terrain to defend the Moon Temple.
As for the outside world, the Fire Dragon could do whatever it wanted.
Considering the horrifying scene he had just witnessed, Elwyn wanted to rush into the temple and stop the magic that was about to succeed before the Evil God arrived.
However, the current situation forced him to retreat with the centaur army. If he continued to advance, he would probably be torn to shreds by the fire dragons behind him before he could even enter the divine temple.
As soon as Elwyn and Ugart moved, the fire dragon seemed to have thought of them. It gave up chasing the centaurs and flapped its wings to fly towards them.
It sprayed out raging flames, turning the surroundings into a sea of flames.
The heatwave was accompanied by the golden ripples. It was as hot as a torch.
Elwyn and Ugart were surrounded in the center of the flames and had nowhere to run. Right in front of them, the ferocious fire dragon opened its huge mouth and stared at them with its fierce yellow eyes. Its huge, black, and rough wings were fully spread, and it rushed over like a fighter plane.
"Damn it!" Ugart shouted and became ruthless. He did not dodge or evade, but rushed towards the diving fire dragon and raised the spear in his hand high up.
The sharp spear flashed with a cold light that caused people's hearts to palpitate, and it emitted an oppressive aura.
On Ugart's back, Elwyn gripped his wand tightly, his whole body tensed up. Seeing the silhouette of the giant dragon becoming clearer and its sharp fangs, he could not think of anything else in his mind.
He took a deep breath and got rid of all distracting thoughts. He completely and absolutely focused his thoughts, aimed at the fire dragon's frightening eyes, and waved the wand in his hand.
A dragon's eyes were the weakest part of its body. In that instant, Elwyn's Eye Curse hit the fire dragon, and it closed its eyes in pain.
The fire dragon stumbled forward and fell to the ground, rolling around in pain. It easily crushed a row of sturdy centaur huts like a toy, and the entire space shook.
Elwyn was stunned for a moment, the Eye Curse's power was not that great.
In the next second, he saw the frightening wound on the black fire dragon's body.
Ugart's attack had cut through its hard, coarse black scales, extending from its upper body to its left wing. The wound was very deep, and in some places, even the bone could be seen.
Elwyn seized the opportunity, and swung his wand as fast as he could along the wound.
He released five silver white curses in a row, and like a bolt of lightning, each one heavily chopped at the fire dragon's bones.
Following Elwyn's attack, the giant dragon let out an earth-shattering roar, and a large amount of dragon blood spurted out.
It rolled on the ground in pain, madly spitting out flames. The golden flames occupied the entire space, and even the hard rocks were melted.
Under the combined attack of Ugart and Elwyn, its left wing was completely destroyed. Even if it was treated in the future, it would be very difficult for it to fly again.
"Well done, human." Ugart said weakly. "This stupid guy has learned his lesson, we need to quickly retreat now."
In the previous confrontation, Ugart's right arm had been cut by the fire dragon's fangs, and was now drooping powerlessly at his side.
Because he had used too much strength, his body was trembling.
Ugart's strength was truly astonishing, completely exceeding the centaur race's innate limits. It was no wonder that even after eight hundred years, his heroic deeds were still being passed down by later generations.
Everyone knew that only the strongest humans could defeat a fire dragon. Before this, Elwyn had never heard of a centaur killing a fire dragon.
The dragon's scales possessed powerful magic and defensive capabilities. Don't mention ordinary physical attacks, even the strongest offensive magic would find it hard to achieve such an effect.
Needless to say, the spear in Ugart's hand was not a magical weapon, but an ordinary weapon. To be able to achieve such an effect, it was completely dependent on his own strength.
Ugart brought Elwyn and the other centaurs to retreat into the forest outside the tribe. Behind them, the berserk fire dragon was still rolling about.
It destroyed everything it touched. With such a fellow blocking the way, entering the Moon God's temple would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
Elwyn was a little worried, and didn't know what to do. Perhaps he could ride a hippogriff and fly in. He told this idea to Ugart.
