Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 269 Shadow Dragon Alvarez
Shana shook her head and deleted the thought from her mind.

Shadow dragons are the most jealous and hostile real dragons of the main material plane. They were once noble real dragons, but were plotted against by the Shadowfallen Underworld, thus becoming shadow dragons, and they keep looking for victims like them outside.

Whenever a shadow dragon sees living survivors, it will lure them and use various means to deceive the residents of the main material plane to come to the Shadowfall and accept the erosion of the shadow.

Whenever the Shadow Dragon sees these humans from the main material plane being transformed into unrecognizable forms by the power of shadow, he feels a brief moment of happiness in his heart.

Therefore, it is not easy for these people from the Shadow Alliance to form an alliance with a shadow dragon.

The area of ​​this black city is very large. Shana and the other two walked for a long time before they got close to the temple.

But they discovered in despair that a circle of walls had been built around the temple without them knowing when.

"What the hell is going on?! Have they discovered us?" Cade whispered angrily, looking around in horror.

Shana frowned, she didn't know whether she and her friends had been discovered.

The effect of the mass invisibility spell did not dissipate. If they passed through an area with True Seeing, the invisibility spell should have been broken immediately.

Moreover, if they were really discovered, she didn't think the three of them would be worth the other side to erect a wall to defend them. The killers moving around in the city alone should be able to deal with them.

Is it
Was there a conflict between the shadow dragon and the people of the Shadow Alliance?

Shana suddenly thought of this possibility, and the next moment, the black city wall suddenly shot out black beams of light into the sky. These beams of light were connected by black curtains, completely covering the temple like a bowl.

As expected, such a big commotion must have come from the control of the demiplane hub. Those people from the Shadow Alliance had just obtained the books and should not have had enough time to take control of the hub, nor would they have the need to activate defensive measures.

It really is that Shadow Dragon.
Just as she was thinking about it, a rough and low dragon roar suddenly came from the temple.
-
Shadow Dragon Alvarez felt as if he had attracted the attention of the Goddess of Doom because of his handsome face, which led to his bad luck today.

Early in the morning, the Heart of Death sounded two alarms, alerting him that another reckless adventurer had entered the demiplane.

That would be fine, but ever since he was trapped here by that damn skeleton two hundred years ago, these stray adventurers have been his only pleasure.

Alvarez usually sits in the temple, upholding the dignity of the dragon clan, waiting for adventurers to challenge him, and then easily crushes these ants.

In order to ensure that the adventurers would not lose their lives before reaching him, Alvarez cleansed all the monsters in the entire demiplane, leaving only the weakest undead creatures.

There is a very tricky existence on the only way to the mountain that is quite tricky for adventurers. Unfortunately, the unknown life that Alvarez has not figured out yet is the treasure of the skeleton. Before he left here, it forced Alvarez to swear to God not to touch it at all.

Of course, the shrewd Alvarez won't be tripped up by these little problems.

He used magic to dig an underground passage, which allowed him to find the entrance outside the monster's territory and lead directly to the city.

Some clever adventurers discovered the small help he offered and came to the temple with hope. Whenever this happened, Alvarez would laugh at the adventurers' expressions of fear when they saw his hideous body.

He would intimidate the cowards with his majestic voice, and then use his corrupting shadowy breath to turn them into frost and throw them onto the plains to serve as soldiers.

Originally, this little game would be an entertainment activity that would always accompany him.

Until a group of freaks appeared. Hundreds of humans suddenly appeared in the secret passage he left behind, each of them possessing the power to control shadows.

Normally, this would be his time to show his prowess.

The premise is that he is stronger than those uninvited guests.

As a shadow dragon in an extremely old age that is about to break through its life cycle and sublime into an ancient dragon, Alvarez is usually the dominant one.

But I don’t know which damn god disliked him and actually threw a group of experts into this demiplane!
Alvarez's strength was close to the critical point of Legend, almost touching the edge of level 20. Both strength and physique had reached the limit of 99 points, and he was assisted by powerful shadow mysticism and shadow dragon breath.

But even though he was so powerful, he was being suppressed and beaten by a group of humans!
"Roar!!!"

In the empty temple, Alvarez let out an earth-shaking roar and slapped his chest hard with his dragon claws. The heart of death hidden deep in his body emitted an inexplicable wave, and he turned his gaze to the twenty or so humans in front of him.

[Shadow Curtain Wall] has been activated. It can temporarily prevent these human reinforcements from entering, but they are not easy to deal with!

Alvarez looked at the twenty or so people in front of him and secretly groaned in his heart. Almost every one of these twenty people was an assassin master with a professional level of 13 or above, especially the leader.
Alvarez looked with fear at a man wrapped in a black hooded cloak and holding a black crescent-shaped scimitar. He felt a dull pain from the wound on his wing that was cut by the man.

Even the Shadow Dragon has to be careful when dealing with his strength.

The man holding the crescent-shaped scimitar raised his head. His hood covered half of his face, revealing his sharp jaw and a scar that ran through the left half of his face. His pale lips curled into a smile: "Alvarez, are you sure you want to fight me to the end? I might as well tell you that even if you survive today, the elders will only send stronger killers to deal with you."

"Unless you advance to the ancient dragon level right now, you won't be able to protect this demiplane."

The man's leisurely tone made Alvarez's eyes burst with anger. A mere human, an inferior race, actually dared to threaten the great true dragon like this!

He had no intention of guarding this place for that skeleton. If it weren't for the oath, he would have run away long ago.

But now, Alvarez, who had no choice but to do so, really wanted to kill.

"Foolish human," Alvarez said grimly, "Do you know who this demiplane belongs to?"

"A professional who hasn't even reached the level of legend wants to take over the legacy of a quasi-god?"

Alvarez was extremely angry. If he had not transformed into a shadow dragon, he could have easily suppressed these idiots in front of him!

You know, he was once the ancient blue dragon known as [Flashing Thunder]!

Unfortunately, while the shadow energy transformed him, it also caused his life level to completely degenerate.

For a true dragon, there is a chasm of life and death between an extremely old dragon and an ancient dragon. Only a true dragon that has surpassed the ancient dragon stage can sublimate its bloodline and cross the road to legend.

As a true dragon that was created after birth, the Shadow Dragon is equivalent to a reshaped race. Therefore, even a true dragon that has surpassed the ancient dragon stage will be forced to degenerate to the extremely old dragon stage after becoming a Shadow Dragon.

During the past two hundred years, Alvarez had been trying to return to the ancient dragon stage again. He was almost successful, but then he encountered a group of humans!
He still can't beat it!
It's really like a tiger being bullied by a dog.
