Ice and Fire: Reign of the Dragon.

Chapter 284 Wild Dragon Moon Dance
夷林
In the hastily built but not simple camp, Dan recalled the knowledge about the southern continent he had learned from his uncle. It was the remains of an ancient, huge city. It was said that thousands of years before the demise of Loyna, the city had become an uninhabited ruin.

They had seen the dilapidated Yimen Tower in the Yi River Delta. It had been planted by countless plants and was becoming increasingly dilapidated, which was consistent with the fact that it had been abandoned for thousands of years. But Yilin.
They were blocked here and could not really see the city that swallowed up a colony of Queen Rhoyna. According to legend, Yilin was a huge city built of oily black stone. Even though it had been in ruins for thousands of years, no plants dared to disturb the peace of the city. It is said that Queen Nymeria sighed when she first saw the city.

"This city is so evil that even the trees dare not set foot in it."

According to legend, the Queen's men were attacked by carnivorous monkeys from the southern jungle in this city, and after barely settling down, they were attacked by spotted ghouls, causing heavy losses to the entire colony.

And one day after that, the entire colonial team disappeared overnight.

After the Rhoyna finally gave up Sothoryos, no one dared to go deep into the city except for those brave tribes of striped people. Even the self-proclaimed brave Gada Guga only killed a striped ghoul on the edge of the city.

"That guy is not scary. His claws are sharp and ugly, but he is easy to deal with. He can penetrate with a spear."

Gada Guga excitedly introduced the striped ghoul he had killed to the soldiers by the campfire. Although Beile could not quite understand his language which was mixed with strange accent and even weird vocabulary, the soldiers and the bachelor listened with great interest.

I don’t know if he really understood it or was just trying to please me.

Dan whispered the language of the spotted guide to Belle.

The two giant dragons curled up at the edge of the charred earth, using their scales to block the countless malicious intent coming from the jungle, and Huo Huo roared from time to time.

The dragon's ugly roar seemed to have a special kind of magic. Although its roar was harsh, it could dispel people's strange feeling of being stared at by something.

This may be the reason why the local people, Gada Guga, regard them as gods.

The scholar stared at the sky, and suddenly sighed, and hurriedly whispered in Dan's ear: "Your Highness, it seems that the weather has changed. It will rain tonight, and there may not be a moon."

Dan nodded and asked in the direction of the spotted guide: "Gada Guga, will the rain affect the fog?"

The spotted guide was stunned for a moment, as if trying to understand what Dan meant. Soon, he shook his head as if he had suddenly realized something: "When it rains, the fog will not expand or dissipate."

Dan nodded.

The climate in the rainforest is indeed changeable. As soon as he finished speaking, raindrops began to fall before the clouds even gathered in the sky. Huohuo and Sendroth spread their wings tacitly and protected the camp under the dragon.

Also protected the bonfire.

Dan took out a little dragon carved out of ruby ​​and threw it into the bonfire. The flames suddenly rose, stained with blood, but also warmer.

The striped guide once again looked at the two dragons with admiration. He had secretly made up his mind to worship these two giant gods after returning to the tribe.

But before that, he would ask the messenger who served the gods.

"God, we can offer sacrifices, okay?"

The striped guide spoke to Dan with a devout look in his eyes.

Dan was a little confused and pointed at the two dragons above his head: "Are you sure?"

The striped guide nodded vigorously: "I have seen a statue like this, so can we worship it?"

Dan was stunned for a moment. No, this information was wrong.

He lowered his voice hastily and asked as clearly as possible in the language of the Striped People: "Are you sure you have seen anyone worship a dragon?"

The striped guide nodded vigorously: "It's in the black forbidden area where there are no prey."

Dan knew exactly where that word with many attributives referred to. Yilin.

Impossible, it couldn't be Yilin. The last people to arrive in Yilin were the Rhoynar. Those stubborn people conquered by Valyria could not tolerate the statue of a dragon being worshipped as a "god".

So it couldn't be someone from Loyna.

Could it be another tribe of spotted people?

That's impossible. The striped people have their own bloody gods. Even the more civilized tribes still retain the so-called blood sacrifice rituals and launch wars against other tribes to obtain sacrifices. If they hadn't set out in a hurry, I'm afraid what they threw into the Yi River for sacrifice would not be a few monkeys, but other striped people.

They will not easily convert to other gods, and Yuewu.
To be honest, if Yuewu were still alive now, she would have grown to a size large enough to intimidate most people who have never seen a dragon.

But Gada Guga and his companions had only seen this giant dragon fighting for territory with the pterosaurs, and had never seen it attack areas inhabited by humans.

and so.

Very strange, very strange.

But now they couldn't leave the base in the pouring rain.

"After the weather clears up tomorrow, let's go take another look at Yilin," Dan whispered to himself.

Just when Dan and the others were about to take a break.

The huge black pyramid in the distance suddenly emitted several faint lights.

It seemed as if something was walking and climbing on the steps made of oily black stones. But soon, the light went out, as if the strange situation just now was just an illusion in the rain.

Deep in the jungle.

Moon Dancer, who had a crown of thorns, tore open the head of a lizard, revealing the bloody spine and white flesh. Fiery flames gushed out, and in the blink of an eye, the flesh turned yellow.

Yuewu tore the burnt flesh of the lizard with all her might. The dragon saddle on its back was already in tatters, but it seemed to still be tied to something.

A corpse that had turned into a skeleton was tied to the dragon saddle with ropes. For some reason, it did not break during Yuewu's intense movements. Instead, it seemed to be fixed by something.

Just as Yuewu was biting the lizard's head to pieces, the giant dragon, which had turned into a wild dragon, suddenly raised its head and let out a deafening roar towards the depths of the jungle.

Afterwards, the dragon flames poured out, and the open space that was once filled with bones returned to peace again.

Faintly, a few faint lights in the woods suddenly dissipated.

early morning.

The old soldier hurriedly woke up Dan, who was sitting and sleeping.

His face was full of solemnity and anxiety, not at all as calm as when he set out.

"Your Highness, we are missing a sentry."

Dan's alarm bells suddenly went off.

Didn't he finally escape?
Dan clenched his fists.
