It was about ten meters long and looked like a snake but not a snake. It looked like a dragon but not a dragon. It had the body of a snake but some of the characteristics of a dragon. It looked like a snake on the outside, but there were four legs under its abdomen that had just emerged not long ago. There were also two big bumps on its head. Those bumps looked like a pair of dragon horns that were about to pop out.
This was a Flood Dragon, a creature between a snake and a dragon. It was evolving from a snake to a dragon. It was a creature that looked like a snake but not a snake.
Damn it!
Seeing this Flood Dragon, Chu Rui felt bitter in his heart.
He just wanted to enter the city. What was the big deal? Even a damn Flood Dragon was brought out. System, you motherf * cker!
Chu Rui cursed in his heart. But so what if he cursed? What could he change?
Now, he should be concerned about how to get rid of this Flood Dragon. After all, it was not a dragon. It did not have Dragon Power, Dragon Language Magic, or Dragon Qi. It was just a snake in essence, a very powerful and abnormal snake. Although it was powerful, it could not mobilize the energy of heaven and earth like a dragon. Chu Rui did not have much to fear.
The one guarding the city gate was a Flood Dragon. What kind of monster was hiding in the Imperial City?
Chu Rui felt very conflicted!
If this situation continued, it would be indescribably difficult. This was especially true for the demons who had almost single-handedly destroyed a powerful civilization like Atlantis tens of thousands of years ago, as well as the vengeful spirit of the extremely evil king. Chu Rui really found it hard to imagine how terrifying they were. If they were as abnormal as the Venerable Skeletal Dragon, Chu Rui would have a headache and a hard time. His chances of winning were not more than thirty percent. If they were at the level of the Baleful Yin Demon Monarch, his chances of winning were less than ten percent. This was not belittling himself. It was the truth. Chu Rui had to admit it.
"Outsiders, go back to where you came from. Don't even think about taking a step into the Imperial City."
The Flood Dragon looked down at Rui's group from above. Its huge mouth was incomparably red, and its teeth were sharp and densely packed. Just looking at it made one shudder in fear.
"And you are?"
Seeing that the flood dragon didn't pounce on him like a mad dog, Chu Rui definitely had a plan. It was better to avoid such a battle if possible.
"I am the guardian of Atlantis' Imperial City! Young man, leave quickly. Without the permission of the Atlanteans and the King, no one can enter the palace. "
The flood dragon swayed its body in the air and said in a calm tone.
"Since you're the guardian beast of Atlantis, you should know what Atlantis is like now. I have been entrusted by the last surviving descendant of Atlantis to resolve the grudges and grievances here. It's been tens of thousands of years. You should have some understanding of it, right? "
Chu Rui tried to console him. Since the flood dragon had a spirit, there should be room for discussion. As a guardian beast of the city, there was no need to doubt its strength. It would be best if it did not have to fight. Furthermore, if they managed to convince it to change sides and help them deal with the demons and the king's vengeful spirit, that would be even better. Since the System arranged for the flood dragon to appear and there was room for discussion, it naturally wouldn't be that simple. Since that was the case, it would depend on Chu Rui whether it worked or not. There was a chance, but whether he could grasp it or not, hehe, it would depend on his strength and charm.
"…" Chu Rui's words made the flood dragon silent. After a long while, it raised its head and said, "Atlantis is indeed destroyed. However, as long as Atlantis City exists, I will protect it. "
Chu Rui, "…"
Looking at the flood dragon's determined eyes, Chu Rui did not know what to say. Should he praise it for its loyalty, or should he scold it for not being smart enough?
Atlantis had been destroyed a long time ago. Who was here? Other than some monsters who had taken over the place, there was no one here. Atlantis City was indeed still here, but it was just a pile of rubble. Could a city without people still be called a city? Could a country without a king and without people still be called a country? He really did not know what this flood dragon was thinking. Maybe it was remembering the glory of Atlantis, or maybe it was loyal to the Atlantis royal family. However, what was the point? Instead of letting Atlantis sink, it was better to cut the Gordian knot and liberate it. After tens of thousands of years, it was time for it to be free. That evil demon should also be destroyed. As for the vengeful spirit of the king, they could discuss it later!
"Atlantis has already been destroyed. Is there any point for you to stay here alone?" Looking at the completely unshaken faith, as if a brainwashed believer, Chu Rui really wanted to incite the Wings of Abstinence to twist off the dragon's head and pry it open to see what was inside.
"You can leave! I don't want to hear you speak ill of Atlantis. "The flood dragon glared at Chu Rui and ordered him to leave. Its huge body trembled. Obviously, if Chu Rui and the rest did not leave, it would use force to suppress them.
Leave? Leave my ass! I've been talking nonsense for so long. Do you think I'll give up halfway? Even if I can't convince you to help me deal with the final boss, you should at least make way for me to enter.
Chu Rui glanced at the flood dragon and asked everyone to back off in the team channel. If there was a disagreement later, he would be able to react in time. He did not have to worry about Ye Zifeng and the rest being hurt.
"I'll say the same thing. Atlantis has already been destroyed. Is there any point for you to stay here and guard an empty city? " Before the flood dragon got angry, Chu Rui continued, "Maybe you're loyal to the Atlantis Kingdom or the King of Atlantis. However, the Atlantis Kingdom has already been destroyed. The King of Atlantis has fallen and is now in cahoots with demons. We don't even know where he is now. Is there any point for you to stay here and guard an empty city? Maybe you know the truth about the destruction of Atlantis. After all, you're on the city gate. You should know why Atlantis was punished by God and sunk to the bottom of the sea forever. You should also know why the remaining Atlanteans still want to save this city after tens of thousands of years. You've been foolishly loyal to guard this city for tens of thousands of years. I admire your perseverance. However, are you going to stay like this forever? Forget about the past. However, now that there's a chance to destroy the demons and free the King of Atlantis whom you're loyal to, why don't you do it? The word 'loyalty' is not foolishly loyal like yours. As for how to understand it, I'm sure you know it in your heart. "
"…" The flood dragon was silent. It stared at Chu Rui for a long time before saying, "Maybe you're right."
Rui was overjoyed. It seemed that the flood dragon was finally able to understand him. It was not in vain that he had said so much to persuade him. However, before the smile on Rui's face bloomed, the Flood Dragon's next sentence made his face stiffen.
