Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 270 Marov's Ambition
"Roar!!"

Alvarez felt more and more aggrieved the more he thought about it, so he roared to the sky and raised his huge wings, covering the sky and the sun, occupying one-fifth of the space in the temple hall and bringing up gusts of eerie air.

The hooded man remained calm in the face of the strong wind and said calmly, "Why get angry? You know that what I said is the truth."

“If the elders knew about this, they would definitely try every means to permanently enslave you, a giant dragon that can manipulate the power of shadows. Your fate would be worse than death!”

"So," he said, raising his chin proudly, "Why don't you cooperate with me? We will swear to the gods and become companions who help each other. I will ensure that the information about you and this demiplane will not be leaked, and you will help me control this demiplane."

After Marov finished speaking, he saw the Shadow Dragon opposite him become hesitant, and he felt excited.

If this shadow dragon really agreed to his request, then he
It really is worth the 30 years of planning!
In order to obtain this demiplane, he risked being discovered by the cruel and vicious elders in the alliance and secretly developed his own private army.

Over the years, he has been searching for clues about this demiplane and has continuously expanded his power. He started as a small lackey in the Shadow Alliance and has now become a well-known consul!

What was it for? Wasn't it just to obtain this quasi-god legacy that he accidentally learned about when he was young!

He has waited too long. If that damn cousin hadn't taken the book away that year, causing him to miss 14 years, he should have taken control of this place long ago!
But it’s okay, he has been honing his assassination skills all the time in the past 14 years, and now he is a level 20 shadow assassin who is only one step away from becoming a legend!

Even without these men, he was confident that he could fight this shadow dragon to a draw.

"What do you think, Mr. Alvarez?" Marov said with a smile.

The Shadow Dragon sighed, relaxed his whole body and said, "What else can I do? You are right!"

In an instant, Alvarez suddenly started to attack in the middle of his words!
The Shadow Dragon suddenly opened its ferocious mouth, and dark energy began to surge in its mouth, as if it was drawn from the endless shadows. Then, a shadow dragon breath spewed out like a raging black torrent, and everything was swallowed up by the darkness wherever it went, as if even light could not escape its erosion.

The shadow dragon's breath drew a strange arc in the air, pointing directly at Marov, whose face suddenly changed drastically!
"You cunning dragon, how dare you lie to me?!" Marov had no time to dodge, so he could only bite the bullet and raise his two swords to block in front of himself. Rich shadow energy flowed out from the scimitars, forming a black shield.

This is the [Dark Magic] branch of Advanced Shadow Mysticism, an enhanced version of the four-ring Shadow Mysticism named [Spell Distortion], which can steal the energy of arcane or shadow mysticism and use it for one's own benefit.

Relying on this supernatural ability, Shadow Assassin becomes the most troublesome enemy for spellcasters after level 15.

The shadow dragon's breath is naturally a supernatural breath composed of shadow energy. The moment the black torrent came into contact with the black shield, nearly half of the powerful energy was absorbed by the shield and then transmitted into Marov's body.

Marov's face was filled with relief, as if he had taken a tonic pill. His muscles bulged and he held his two swords firmly in front of him, blocking the attack of the dragon's breath.

When the last bit of the dragon's breath dissipated, Marov shook his sore wrist and looked at the dragon coldly: "Since you want to die, I will grant your wish."

With a casual wave of his finger, more than 20 professionals immediately rushed towards Alvarez with a trail of afterimages. At the same time, Marov's body also disappeared in the shadows.

The Shadow Dragon was indeed stronger than humans of the same level, but it could not withstand too many high-level professionals, a large group of 14th and 15th level shadow assassins plus a pseudo-legendary assassin who attacked him from time to time. Alvarez gradually lost the upper hand. The huge temple became a cage that bound him. He could not spread his wings and fly into the sky. Instead, his huge body became a living target for these agile assassins to attack at will.

"Do not!!"

After Marov appeared again and stabbed the Shadow Dragon in the chest, Alvarez let out a deafening roar, and the huge shadow energy knocked everyone around him away like a shock wave.

Alvarez lay on the ground weakly, with large amounts of dragon blood dripping out, emitting a fishy and unpleasant smell.

Marov jumped back gracefully, and after landing steadily, he taunted: "It seems that there will be one more dragon slayer in the world today."

Alvarez was desperate and angry. As a proud shadow dragon, he was once an ancient blue dragon that ruled the Anauroch Desert. But now he was defeated by a sinister and despicable human.
Seeing that the other party ignored him, Marov sneered and was about to order his men to continue the attack, but suddenly his expression tensed and he looked fiercely towards the entrance of the temple.

"Who!" Marov shouted.

At the same time, Shana and the other two who had just entered the temple were shocked. They were clearly invisible, so how could this man find them?
The three of them stopped immediately and stood still. Marov looked at the door suspiciously, and suddenly threw out a long arrow made of shadow energy, which hit Cade's feet right in front of him.

Cade was so frightened that his legs went weak and he almost fell to his knees, but when he saw the threatening looks from Shana and Erbis, he forced himself not to make a sound.

Marov looked at him coldly for a while, then turned his head away.

Shana breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this man did not have the power of [True Seeing] to see through invisibility. He just heard their footsteps.

She looked at the half of the man's face exposed under his hood, her fists clenched tightly, and her eyes showed resentful anger.

She could not forget it, never could.

It was that face, that scar. The man who had killed her parents and her mentor was right in front of her!

"Alvarez, now, I'm going to give you another chance, but the conditions have changed."

Marov showed a greedy look and said, "As long as you swear to God, submit to me, and serve me as your master, I will spare your life!"

Yes, his thoughts have changed. This dragon is already in his pocket. Compared to a dragon slayer, he wants to have a dragon as his pet!
Alvarez lay weakly on the ground. He had lost too much blood and had lost the strength to stand up. However, this did not stop him from showing a contemptuous smile: "Just a lowly assassin."

He suddenly raised his dragon head, his dragon eyes glaring: "Are you worthy of being the master of a real dragon?!"

Marov shook his head with some regret, he really didn't want to miss this dragon. If he could get the service of an extremely old dragon, as long as he hid in this demiplane for a while to accumulate strength, he could compete for the supreme position of the elder of the alliance!
Unfortunately, he doesn't know how to appreciate it!
Just as Marov was about to draw out his scimitar, he suddenly felt an extremely dangerous feeling in his heart. He turned around instinctively, only to find a dazzling green light shooting out from the entrance of the temple!
