From Naruto onwards, I've become a dreamer.

Chapter 356 Assassination of the King (Part 4)
Word of Power: Candle Dragon
Serial number: 114
Danger level: World-ending
According to research, the last outbreak of the "Candle Dragon" destroyed the entire White Emperor City in one fell swoop.

This is pure violence and destruction, capable of easily burning a city or a thousand rivers, or even detonating underground magma to spew forth mountains, thereby destroying the world.

The only drawback is that the releaser needs to undergo a long period of meditation and chanting, and secondly, requires the complete power of the 'Dragon King'.

Even if it were an 'incomplete' Dragon King, it would be more than enough to destroy a mere human.

As the thought flashed through his mind, Chu Zihang knew he had to stand up. If he didn't stop Norton, the entire Bronze City would probably be destroyed. At that point, regardless of whether the Dragon King could survive, he and Nuonuo would definitely not survive.

The problem was that Chu Zihang clenched his teeth tightly, letting the blood flow into his mouth and fill the air with a bloody smell, but his body simply wouldn't obey him.

The side effects of the third blood explosion became apparent. He once fell into the abyss of "Deadpool," causing the concentration of dragon blood to exceed the threshold of blood. At this moment, regaining his sanity became a limitation. His body was suffering from the corrosive effects of the highly toxic dragon blood, and the unimaginable pain made it impossible for him to even move a finger.

"Damn it, am I really going to just stand by and watch someone take something important from me again?!"

Blood trickled down his lips as Chu Zihang struggled to lift his head, his bloodshot pupils fixed on the lofty Dragon King.

A human-like expression appeared on the ferocious face covered in dragon scales.

That was extreme resentment and profound powerlessness.

Nortonson's cold pupils gleamed with a crimson-gold light, as if to say that with his power alone, nothing could be changed.

The ancient and mysterious dragon runes caused the massive amount of fire elements gathered in the atmosphere to surge and undulate like a raging torrent. The temperature of the entire bronze temple was rising at an unbelievable speed, quickly evaporating the lake formed by the underground water. Scorching and boiling steam filled every corner.

The dazzling sun shone even brighter, its temperature approaching several thousand degrees, containing astonishing energy and destructive power.

It's not hard to imagine the terrifying devastation that would occur if that 'blazing sun,' which gathers countless fire elements, were to unleash its full power!

"Please, just hold on a little longer. Just a little longer." At this moment, what drove Chu Zihang was not the dragon blood, but his unwavering willpower. Even though his body was already battered and bruised, even if he was about to die in the next second, he was determined to stop Norton.

One step, two steps, three steps.

With each step taken, a large amount of blood would splatter out like a fountain.

Chu Zihang's body swayed precariously as he slowly climbed the blood-stained steps, the bronze staircase that seemed to stretch to the sky never felt so long.

It's like an insurmountable chasm.

"A dying struggle? How ugly."

Norton remained indifferent, watching Chu Zihang, who had fallen and gotten up several times, looking utterly disheveled.

However, at this moment.

A surge of emotion welled up in my heart for no apparent reason.

Norton frowned, uneasy thoughts swirling in his mind, as if foreshadowing something terrible about to happen.

Is that guy?
He raised his senses to the maximum, intending to find the source of that 'pulsation', and first turned his gaze to Chu Zihang, suspecting that the danger came from this guy.

But that swaying, unsteady figure, which looked like it would die soon if left unattended, hardly seemed like it could pose any danger.
Suddenly, Norton froze, his heart clenching inexplicably.

"This feeling is Constantine?!" He finally realized where that tremor came from—his blood brother. Norton suddenly turned to look at the palace, only to see that the tightly closed doors had somehow opened a crack. His heart was filled with immense panic.

Could it be...? Just as the thought flashed through His mind, a weak voice came.

"I'm sorry, brother."

"In the end, I still cannot become the king who devours the world, as you hoped."

“You once told me that the fate of the abandoned tribe is to raise a tattered battle flag, cross the desolate plains, and return to the homeland of the past. But I can’t go back. So, brother, please eat me. Take my will and let’s embark on the road home together.”

"no no!"

Norton had never been so panicked, not even when facing the former 'Black King'.

No, not possible!
Even now, Norton still can't believe it, staring intently at the Bronze Temple.

But soon, a figure emerged from inside. It was the girl who had just been chased. Although she was covered in blood and her wetsuit was torn in several places, revealing her delicate and fair skin, she had a mocking smile on her face: "Well, Mr. Dragon King, I've got you in check."

Boom! ! !

A huge explosion resounded inside the bronze temple.

In an instant, the specially made alchemical powder was carried by the shockwave and quickly surged out of the bronze temple, then filled the vast space.

"This is sulfur! No, it also neutralizes the air!" With just one breath, Norton could sense that the sulfur contained in these alchemical powders was undoubtedly a deadly poison to dragons. His pupils immediately contracted: "Not good, Constantine!"

Normally it would be fine, but for sulfur to kill the Dragon King is pure fantasy.

However, Constantine is currently in its weakest 'incubation' state, and with the deprivation of air, the consequences are predictable!

The palpitations that bound them together by blood were severed in that very moment!
At that moment, Norton was overwhelmed by immense panic.

They even completely forgot that the power of the words that had been forcibly interrupted, which controlled the gathering fire elements, immediately backfired on the caster.

A crack appeared in the dazzling sun, and it soon could no longer suppress the fire element inside. It exploded like a huge bomb. The turbulent fire element exploded on the spot, and the ear-piercing sound waves raised up rolling winds and air waves, melting the bronze within a radius of tens of meters!
Nono didn't dare to delay. She knew this was her only chance, so she rushed out despite the burning flames and rolled down the bronze steps.

"Are you alright?" Although she was badly injured, she was not nearly as badly injured as Chu Zihang. Nuonuo immediately carried the heavily injured Chu Zihang on her back and asked him with concern, "I'm so glad you can come back."

"What did you do?" Chu Zihang asked.

"It's nothing. While you were fighting, I sneaked into the Bronze Palace and blew up the Dragon King that was hatching inside." Nono recounted the thrilling truth in a nonchalant manner.

Even Chu Zihang was frightened by Nuonuo's courage. To sneak into a dragon king's palace and detonate a bomb in front of him was quite terrifying!
At this moment, the pitch-black dragon shape reappeared in front of the collapsed bronze palace.

"Constantine!!!"

Norton's furious roar echoed throughout the Bronze City from the burning flames.

Pain, grief, rage, and other violent emotions surged forth as if they were tangible, carrying with them a chilling and sinister killing intent that permeated every corner.

"Looks like we should run away."

Hearing the shrill screams, Nuonuo felt a chill run down her spine and said in a low voice, "I don't want to be caught by that guy, or I'll probably die a horrible death."
