Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 152: The Capital Falls, the Old Mage Dies

Dragons and angels soared together in the sky. It was such a harmonious scene, but no one was interested. Even the most optimistic brass dragon fell silent when he saw the shocking scene below.

The magnificent and beautiful mountains and rivers fell under the fiery hooves of the devil, countless lives were slaughtered, and corpses torn in half were just common.

There were also pieces of flesh and bones that were crushed into pieces, with shapes unrecognizable; babies with tears and blood in the corners of their eyes, and limbs that were bitten to pieces; and female priests of gods who had suffered inhuman humiliation and torture...

The cruelty and tyranny of the devil were now vividly displayed before our eyes. It was a sin that could not be described in any books or words. It was too numerous to mention. Even if all the pain was returned, it would not be enough to vent the anger in my heart.

"I'm going to kill all of these damn scum!"

"Master, summon the ancient dragon. I don't want any demon that has wreaked havoc here to return to the abyss alive."

"That's right. We must not let a single demon go. We must bury them all on this land."

"I'm going to make them regret setting foot here again."

“I am willing to contribute all my wealth.”

When Noah heard the last sentence, he could fully feel the anger of the dragons. For a group of young metal dragons who were just starting out and full of hope and justice, witnessing a civilized land ravaged by the demon army, the mental shock caused to them was unimaginable.

Any descriptions left by the ancestors in the blood inheritance are so pale and powerless in front of the bloody scenes witnessed at this moment. Only by seeing it with one's own eyes can one understand why the devil is the evil monster that everyone wants to kill.

Noah's ideas were not much different from those of these young dragons. After all, an extra decade or so was nothing to a dragon. He and the metal dragons had many overlapping views.

So, Noah, as the leader, contributed half of the money, and the other half was contributed by young dragons who had little property. In exchange, they summoned the arrival of a legendary red copper ancient dragon from the other side of the continent.

Rumbling--

A majestic space vortex took shape in mid-air, and rolling yellow sand flew down from mid-air accompanied by the roar of space force.

hold head high!
A giant dragon, whose scales were a beautiful golden color, and which glowed like sparkling copper under the occasional sunlight that shone through the dark clouds, poked its head out from the whirlpool, looked around and called out to his fellow descendants.

"Abyss invasion? I didn't expect that after three hundred years, I would witness history again. These lowly, ugly, brainless evils really have no memory. I wonder if there are any demons who know the great Scarlet Flame Meteor!"

With a sigh, the ancient dragon came across the space. Facing the invasion of the abyss, the ancient dragon did not show any fear. Instead, its bright red-gold vertical pupils were filled with nostalgia.

"Red Flame Meteor?"

Noah couldn't help but murmur in his heart when he heard the words of this ancient dragon, because this title didn't sound like something an ancient dragon should have. Rather, it sounded like a title that only more impulsive and radical young dragons would get.

The titles of dragons will continue to change as their strength grows and the events they experience. If you want to please a dragon, it is best to call it by its most representative title during communication.

But this ancient dragon called himself the Red Flame Meteor, and apparently this was the title he was most proud of. Noah invited this ancient dragon to join with a hint of doubt and confusion.

When the dragons encountered a group of demons that were roaming around, hunting intelligent creatures and collecting souls, Noah finally understood the origin of the title of this ancient dragon predecessor.

Scarlet Flame Meteor, this is not an exaggerated description or a metaphorical title, but this Senior Gu Long can really turn into a meteor.

When seeing tens of thousands of demons gathering together and the dragons dispersing, ready to cooperate with the angels and ancient dragons to annihilate all the demons, the red copper ancient dragon cast a teleportation spell, soaring higher into the sky, and after reaching a certain height, dived down.

During this process, the ancient dragon kept adjusting its posture, and finally, in front of the extremely shocked gazes of many young dragons, it slammed heavily into the center area of ​​the demon cluster.

boom--

Under the violent impact and the high temperature burning of the ancient dragon's flame, the earth melted in an instant, and the solid ground raised waves tens of meters high, but these waves were all composed of magma in a molten state.

Although demons generally have strong fire resistance, the flames contain the power of ancient dragons, which is unbearable damage to most demons.

More than 30% of the demons evaporated without a sound, and even more demons had their bodies torn to pieces in the subsequent impact.

Destroy the legion with one strike!
A veritable red-flaming meteor

"Before you become an Ancient Dragon, don't learn from me, or you'll get hurt easily."

The remaining demons naturally could not escape the mopping-up of the angels and other dragons who had regained their senses. However, the first sentence uttered by the ancient dragon that crawled out of the molten lake of fire that had been created was a warning to the young dragons.

The ancient dragon was well aware of the consequences of his actions. Although he was warning the young dragons, his eyes were fixed on Noah, who stood out among the many metal dragons that had revealed their true forms. His tone and attitude changed.
"You don't have to wait until you become an ancient dragon. You can try it when you become a young dragon. I can teach you."

"Thank you for your appreciation, but no thanks!"

Noah shook his head repeatedly. He had created his own dragon fighting skills. In his eyes, the attack method of the ancient dragon in front of him was too crude. It was just relying on the ancient dragon's powerful body to bully others with force. There was no skill at all.

This is not the fighting method of the Metal Dragon Clan. It is a method figured out by the Red Dragon Society. If Noah had not looked at the scales and confirmed the bloodline aura, he would have really doubted it.

Of course, it must be said that this method of fighting is very effective when used to bully creatures that are large in number and weaker than dragons. However, if there are creatures of similar level in the demon cluster, this method of fighting can be said to be a dead end.

In short, Noah felt something was wrong no matter how he looked at it. Perhaps this method of fighting was very attractive and could have a great deterrent effect on the enemy, but it did not suit his style.

"This is not a simple dragon car. It's not that simple. There are many factors to consider."

When Gu Long saw Noah's refusal, he sighed with some regret. At first sight, he felt that this young golden dragon was very suitable for the Meteor Combat Method that he had been pondering for hundreds of years. Unfortunately, the other party refused without hesitation.

After actually taking action once, the legendary ancient dragon did not choose to leave, but stayed and continued to protect the dragon group. He did not ask for more money. As a dignified ancient dragon, he also had to save face.

The young people all know that they are fighting on the front line against evil. As an elder, how could he back down in front of a group of little guys?

As the angels and dragons gradually went deeper into the fallen land, they finally found a big city where a large number of survivors gathered, instead of the corpses and deathly air all over the ground.

That was a city protected by gods. In this most dangerous moment, the intelligent life that longed to survive would offer the most devout faith to the gods. It was also for this reason that during the catastrophe, even if the population of many races would wither and die on a large scale due to war, there were still mortals who could ascend to gods by relying on turmoil and chaos.

"There are too many refugees and the management is too chaotic!"

Although they finally encountered a city with some life still surviving, when they actually entered the city and observed the situation of this city which had gathered a large number of disaster victims and was already overloaded, even a dragon with the least management experience could see the problem.

“Food and health are both big problems.”

Powerful supernatural powers can satisfy most of the desires of living beings, and the divine power of gods can basically meet all the needs of intelligent life.

Unfortunately, no god can answer every prayer and make believers get what they want. This is impossible. Gods will only respond to the prayers and expectations of a small number of believers.

Millions of disaster victims gathered together. Not to mention clothing and shelter, solving the basic needs of food, drink, defecation and urination is a big problem. It is not enough to cast a magic once. It is needed every day. Which god's power can withstand such squandering?

"Head, I heard that the Augustus family's territory is very short of people. These refugees can just be sent over there, right?"

Some dragons looked at the miserable lives of the refugees in the city's territories, felt pity for them, and asked Noah for advice.

"Have you forgotten how we got here? Send them here? How? There are millions of refugees here. Do we need to use a teleportation array? Who can afford this kind of expenditure?"

Noah also sympathized with the plight of the people in this land, but he did everything within his ability. It was not that he did not want to save them, but that he really could not.

"Instead of thinking about how to get them out of this land, it is better to think about how to solve the demonic disaster. As long as the gate to the abyss is destroyed, this land will return to normal and they can all survive."

"too difficult."

Compared to the dragons who were discussing how to save the refugees, the angels who had transformed into mortals were traveling through the various corners of the city, looking for possible traces of the devil, and then,
"I found traces of the devil!"

"Really?"

Noah's inferences and guesses were actually verified at the first gathering place of survivors. His expression became serious, and then they found more traces.

For these two legends with special bloodlines, it is natural for them to track down the devil hiding among the refugees and waiting for the opportunity to cause trouble.

The devil's problem was quickly cleared up, but no one was happy because the problem now facing them was very serious. The establishment of the Gate of the Abyss was indeed inextricably linked to the devil.

Everyone knows that the devil will never be so kind as to help the demons harvest souls. The establishment of the Gate of the Abyss must be for a greater purpose.

"what is it?"

The dragons, with doubts, tried their best to destroy the demon army and fight for some breathing space for the survivors who were struggling to survive on this land.

In fact, the righteous groups active on this land are far more than just dragons. There are also holy warriors gathering from all directions, as well as other kind creatures. Noah also saw some nature spirits.

They were all fighting for this land and for the safety of the continent, because after two years of hard work, the abyss invasion caused by the irresponsible and rampant development of the Twelve-Nation Alliance was finally effectively contained.

Just as a group of righteous people formed a front, fought steadily and methodically to eliminate the demons and prepared to destroy the gate of the abyss, a piece of bad news came from the rear.

The West Wind Valley in the center of the continent and the capital of a kingdom in the east were destroyed, and two gates of hell emitting evil auras stood on the land.

Hell Invasion
Noah's previous guess was verified. The huge rock finally fell to the ground, which made him uneasy, because the capital city where one of the two gates of hell stood belonged to the United Kingdom of Erestoria.

Although the Golden Dragon always wanted Augustus to annex this kingdom and replace it, before it was annexed, this kingdom was his homeland where he grew up and belonged to him. But now, this land has been occupied by evil.

"what happened?"

When Noah heard the news from behind, he admitted that he was a little confused.

He had thought about it a lot, but he had never expected that the devil would choose the capital of the kingdom as the location for building one of the gates of hell.

You know, there lives a legendary wizard there who has been advancing to the legendary level for hundreds of years. He also owns a wizard tower. It can be said that it is one of the most difficult areas to conquer in the entire kingdom.

But now, the capital of a country has fallen suddenly without any warning, so that the surrounding areas were completely unprepared. The country that was originally peaceful and tranquil was instantly plunged into turmoil and unrest.

"Sorry, I have to go back!"

Faced with such a situation, Noah no longer had the energy to build up his reputation in the South. The Augustus family was the foundation of his survival and career. In the face of such a sudden crisis, the pressure that Teddel had to face alone was too great.

"You have to hold on, Ted, I'll be right back!"

After Noah paid a price to summon two ancient dragons to descend, he hurried back with the equally murderous angel Ophelia. A group of dragons also chose to return with him.

"Chairman, the situation may not be as bad as you think."

On the way back, facing Noah who kept speeding up, the other dragons could only offer words of comfort. They all understood the golden dragon, so when Noah returned, no one tried to keep him.

"It's going to be worse than I thought!"

The news Noah received was very brief. The kingdom's capital had fallen, the legendary wizard was missing, and it was suspected that a god had fallen. The entire city was sacrificed and no one was spared.

"This is all my fault!"

Next to the golden dragon, the six wings behind the angel were covered by a layer of somewhat illusory crimson flames and were burning.
