Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 69: The Fall of a Legend Shocks the World

boom--

A purple-black rainbow light suddenly burst out from the Duke's Mansion at the foot of the mountain. In just a moment, it split open the tall and magnificent dome of the palace, slanting into the depths of the sky, with no end in sight, and even the space was torn apart.

The golden dragon, who was lying on the dragon's nest on the top of the mountain with his eyes closed and dozing, rushed to the dragon's nest behind him without saying a word. Almost at the same moment when the dome of the Duke's mansion below was shattered, the golden dragon had returned to the dragon's nest and activated all the defensive magic arrays.

"I know that the dark things in the underground love assassination the most!"

Noah muttered to himself. Ever since the underground entrance to the Underdark was torn apart, he could only lie at the gate of the Dragon's Nest when going out to bask in the sun. He also cancelled his occasional activity of transforming into a cat and going down the mountain for a stroll. He was guarding against this.

Just by looking at the changes in the Valley of Fire over the years, one can tell that the mastermind behind the scenes must be a madman who is extremely good at forbearance, but who can do crazy and bold things at critical moments.

This is definitely not something that an ancient black dragon that has fallen into the path of death can do. This guy might be one of the participants, or even just a shield or a smokescreen, but he is definitely not the main messenger.

Facts have proved that the golden dragon's judgment was not wrong. At this moment, as a young dragon, Noah should of course stay obediently in the dragon's nest and not go anywhere. Everything else should be left to his adoptive parents to handle.

"What a pity, I can't see it!"

Noah's heart was itching like a hundred claws at his heart, but with the help of the Dragon's Nest's reconnaissance array, he could sense those terrifying and captivating fluctuations that could easily tear apart the space. So he had no intention of going to the scene in person to take a closer look.

He even opened the teleportation array and put it in a state where it could be used at any time. If anything went wrong, he would run away. His adoptive mother had already built several safe houses for him.

However, the terrifying waves that raged in the city of Aimlia at the foot of the mountain did not last long and soon disappeared, perhaps suppressed by his adoptive father.

But even so, Noah had no intention of going out to find out what was going on. He still stayed in the dragon's nest, motionless. Perhaps in the eyes of the assassin, a small dragon like him was not worth mentioning, but in Noah's own eyes, his life was the most precious thing in the world.

The endless waiting is the most difficult thing, but Noah can endure it, even though his curiosity has been aroused for a long time.

"It's a pity that this matter has nothing to do with me, otherwise I could have used the golden tree to take a look."

Noah sighed, but was helpless. Although his adoptive father was a legend with whom he had a very close relationship, the gap between them was too big, and it was difficult for his words and actions to influence the other party.

Therefore, Jin Long could only wait. Anyway, someone would tell him the final result of the assassination, because Noah believed that the assassin would eventually be defeated.

The fact turned out to be just as Noah had expected. He did not stay in the dragon's nest for three days and three nights. In just less than half a day, the message from his foster mother arrived.

"Come out, Xiaolong. No need to hide anymore."

"never mind?"

Noah peered outside the dragon's nest. The city at the foot of the mountain was the same as before, the flower garden in front of the dragon's nest was still prosperous, and the loyal cloud giant guards stood outside the flower garden like an unyielding pure white wall.

"It's all right now!"

Selina, surrounded by three complex and dazzling rune halos, was suspended in mid-air, emitting an overwhelming power that Noah had never seen before. The light was so brilliant that it was difficult to look directly at her. Even giants had to bow their heads in front of her.

"Aunt, you're really not convincing at all!"

Noah looked at his adoptive mother in such a posture that the scales all over his body exploded slightly, and he felt a strong sense of threat.

Although the expression on her adoptive mother's face was no different from usual, Noah had no doubt that the woman was in a rage at the moment. Once she waved the staff in her hand, a torrent of destruction constructed by thousands of spells would surely fall. "What exactly is going on?"

"Just as we predicted before, the Underdark sent out a shadow assassin to assassinate Cassius, using the usual shady tactics."

The lady of the lord downplayed it, but just looking at her state at the moment, you can tell that her mood is definitely not as calm as she said.

"How's uncle?"

Although he knew that someone with awakened Titan bloodline would never die in a despicable assassination, Noah was still a little nervous. After all, this was an assassination from a legendary assassin.

"It was slightly injured, but as a price, the black man left his head behind."

"?"

Noah was silent for a moment, suppressing his shock, and asked,

"Uncle killed the legendary assassin?"

Although only in the ultimate realm, there are certain professions that can perform high-level magic to achieve the regeneration of severed limbs, the regeneration of severed limbs does not include the head.

Even if it was a legend, if the head was blown up, unless there was a higher level being to bestow a blessing, it would basically not survive, or it would change its life form, such as the undead.

"Well, the dark guy missed his attack and tried to sneak away into the shadow realm, but he was too slow. Cassius grabbed his neck, smashed him into the shadow realm, and smashed his skull with his fist."

Although there were only a few words, Noah could already imagine the violent fighting attitude displayed by his adoptive father who was assassinated.

However, Noah quickly came to his senses. He looked at his adoptive mother, who had also obviously entered a violent state and remained in this state, and raised another question that was easily overlooked.

"Aunt, were you with uncle when the assassination happened?"

"Yes, I was right next to him when the drow stabbed Carlos, but I could only watch. By the time I chased him into the shadow realm, the battle was already over. All I could do was try to detain his soul with magic and burn his body with the Sunburst."

The woman's tone was dark, but it made the scales on Noah's scalp explode.

"Next, uncle and aunt, how are you going to respond to this assassination?"

Noah quickly changed the subject.

A legend can at least guard a thousand miles of land, and the economic benefits it can bring are incalculable. Just look at his adoptive father, the wild border land, just because of his existence, in less than ten years, has become a prosperous scene that everyone flocks to.

Because the fall of a legend is bound to shock everyone, even if the opponent comes from underground.

"Noah, how much reward do I need to prepare to summon an ancient golden dragon?"

Serena didn't answer, but asked back.

The Duchess made no effort to conceal her extreme desire for revenge and destruction.
