Under the Red Dragon.

Chapter 493 Parasite Starfield

Several legendary chosen ones carefully passed the protection of the dragon kings and walked towards the black fire throne that was tens of meters high and coiled on the earth. They looked like heroes who had reached the end of the mortal world and finally met the legendary demon king today.

As the Chosen One, who had entered the realm of sorcerers and reached the legendary status, approached the True Dragon Emperor, who sat on the throne with his head bowed, the look of shock on his face grew increasingly intense.

Even Tokam and Yareira, who had only briefly witnessed this first-generation dragon dominating the starry sky and slaughtering numerous legendary powerhouses, were no different.

They knew that Emperor Gogmora possessed astonishing power, but they never imagined that he could be this powerful.

Almost single-handedly, in the world dominated by a legendary chosen one, he forcefully annihilated the controller who was practically the creator.

It should be understood that even if a legendary figure who has gone further and possesses greater power than Lipnos were to come to Lipnos's world, it would be extremely difficult for them to kill Lipnos.

While it's not as difficult as climbing to the heavens, the probability is not much different from hatching a dragon from a chicken coop.

Several legendary figures stopped before the remains of the Demon Lord Lipnos, whose skeleton, even in its pre-death form, was still nearly a hundred meters long.

At this moment, the skeleton lay before everyone, fallen beneath the Black Fire Throne of the True Dragon Emperor, its dark eye sockets staring at the sky, no longer showing any trace of its former power.

Even so, a powerful aura and presence still lingered around the skeleton, carrying the primordial will of this world, making it extremely terrifying.

If an unsuspecting outsider were to discover these remains, they might assume that Lyponos's remains were left behind by the creator of this world.

The legendary chosen ones didn't know whether it was the true dragon emperor using this to intimidate everyone, or whether it was just a personal habit of this first-generation dragon that liked to display the corpses of its opponents under its claws for appreciation, but out of caution, they did not cross the line.

"Your Majesty, Gogmora,"

Della bowed slightly, then stood up and introduced, "This is Cecily, and this is Zeke. The three of us originally planned to join forces to fight against Lipnos in this world, in order to force Lipnos to compromise."

"But I never expected Lipnos to be so powerful. If it weren't for your great strength, we might have died in this world and become nourishment for Lipnos' growth!"

"First of all, I must thank Your Majesty for saving us and averting this terrible danger."

"Yes, we extend our sincere gratitude, Your Majesty!"

The other two legendary figures, Cecily and Zeke, also bowed in thanks, displaying impeccable manners and appearing even more noble than the great nobles of the world of Ekania.

However, while these legendary deities thanked Charon, their eyes were still uncontrollably drawn to the remains of Lyponos.

Although Lipnos's spirit and will were completely obliterated by Charon, the vitality of this corpse was still terrifyingly vigorous. Countless blood vessels were faintly formed in various parts of the pitch-black bones and joints, like terrifying earthworms occasionally jumping around.

However, the concentration of elemental magic energy in this area is close to zero, which is completely insufficient to meet the regeneration needs of this skeleton. Therefore, it cannot continue to revive and reproduce the power of the former demon lord.

If placed in an area rich in elemental magic and nurtured for a long time, the skeleton of this demon lord will be fully revived. Although it will no longer have consciousness, it will still be an existence that ordinary legends cannot provoke.

The mere fact that this demon lord died, leaving behind residual power deep within his bones, was enough to rival the power of an ordinary legend.

Moreover, the skeleton is so sturdy that even if Charon wanted to completely destroy it, it would take him some effort and time. Ordinary legendary warriors would only suffer defeat when they encountered such a monster.

Not only was Della, a warlock, eyeing the corpse with great desire, but the other legendary chosen ones also swallowed hard at this moment.

Such a powerful corpse, with its unique characteristics and load-bearing capacity, could be crafted into an extremely powerful demon bone golem by a legendary expert proficient in alchemical magic.

If a legendary, destined powerhouse were willing to infuse their own power of law into it, making it the source of power for this skeleton's future combat activities, and combined with a powerful energy core and an elemental soul skilled in combat, it might even be possible to recreate the power of the former Demon Lord.

Most importantly, Lipunos has already used the origin of this world to transform the abyssal characteristics of this body's essence. Even in the material world, its power will not be suppressed due to the characteristics of abyssal creatures, making it a powerful guardian and support for traveling in the outside world.

The bloodline of the legendary chosen one, Della, comes from the throne messenger of the outer plane, the Fiery Sun Realm.

Although the bloodlines of these long, fiery-haired, eight-pack-abs-tall, four-meter-tall women were also exceptionally good, the essence of the Demon Lord was still extremely alluring in Della's eyes.

If it weren't for those terrifying eyes staring at her, Della would probably have already taken out the essence blood hidden deep within the skeleton of this demon lord.

And those two peerless weapons that were plunged into the earth, although they have now concealed their sharpness and look dark and dull with nothing special about them, only their strange shapes are eye-catching.

But these legendary destinies all know that the power of these two peerless divine weapons lies not only in their ability to fully bear the power of a demon lord, but also in their ability to be indestructible. This is due to the combined effect of the materials used to forge the weapons and the power of the laws governing them.

Even if these legendary destinies are not useful to them, they are enough to become one of the most important treasures in the treasury of these powerful individuals. If they were put in the auction houses of those merchant guilds, they would be priceless.

The True Dragon Emperor, who sat atop the Blackfire Throne, was well aware of the covetousness of these legendary chosen ones. For a legend, a material like the Demon Lord was like a nation's treasure trove to a dragon.

The difference is that materials like the Demon Lord can generate a continuous stream of wealth in the hands of a legendary figure.

If a treasure trove falls into the hands of a dragon, it will most likely disappear from the world's sight forever, becoming a ruin along with the dragon's death.

Although Charon did not intend to monopolize the world of Lyponos, he knew that no matter how powerful a being was, once it wanted to take everything, it would inevitably attract countless overt and covert hostility.

While it may seem like you're getting all the benefits by eating alone, it's often an extremely foolish thing to do.

But Charon had no intention of giving up the remains of Lipnos or the other important treasures left behind to these legendary beings.

The mages of the Golden Empire may find it difficult to fully utilize the value of this skeleton, but if Kalon spends some time, with his alchemical skills, he could easily forge an extremely powerful golem.

While this cannot compare to the power of Charon, it can still be considered one of the foundations of the empire.

Moreover, whether it's the path of Charon's first generation of dragons or the combined reasons of combat magic, this body of the Demon Lord can provide Charon with a lot of reference value.

Charon's mastery of shapeshifting now encompasses every enemy he has ever killed, every target he has ever defeated, every creature he has ever studied and dissected, and every being he has ever thoroughly understood. Whether it's the Balrogs, serpent demons, high demons, and other monsters from the Abyss, or the Hydra lizards, various extraordinary species, giants, and even the Storm Titans of the material world, Charon can easily transform into any form and master the abilities of these beings to fight.

However, for Charon, the form of the first-generation dragon was the most suitable, perfect, and powerful form for him in the world. Whether it was the sea, land, or air, everything was considered his home ground in the face of the power wielded by this first-generation dragon.

Therefore, Charon never transformed into any other form to fight. He only used such magic to add fun when playing with his spouse Kleinaya and Antajana.

But with the help of this demon lord's remains, Charon's understanding and expansion of transfiguration will go even further.

Polymorphism has now become an integral part of Charon's power, one of his fundamental spells.

He could even use the abilities of other creatures that could be transformed by shapeshifting to reverse-engineer the system of law fragments within the bloodlines of these creatures themselves. By combining this with the material references of the physical entities, he could advance Charon's path a little further.

Once he fully grasps the characteristics of this Demon Lord, even if he goes to the Endless Abyss to remain there for a long time, he can change the form of the Demon Lord without being affected by the transformation, unlike other dragons and creatures, who are subject to the transformation of the Abyss consciousness.

If the hounds of the Golden Empire find the abyss plane that this demon lord once ruled, Charon could also become the ruler of the abyss plane in his spare time and play the role of a lord in the abyss.

Therefore, Kalon will not give up the remains of this demon lord. Even if the Zerg queen sacrifices the most fundamental law of a legendary destiny, she will not be able to get a single piece of the spoils from Kalon.

Kalon will only compensate the Zerg Queen in other ways.

So Charon readily accepted the gratitude of these legendary chosen ones, without mentioning the distribution of the spoils, and simply waited for them to speak up.

Moreover, in Caron's opinion, these guys' gratitude might not be very genuine; they didn't even offer a gift, which was utterly despicable.

If Karon weren't now the Dragon Emperor of the Empire, he might have taken advantage of the characteristics of the Red Dragon race and asked for gifts.

When these later legendary figures, including Della, came to their senses and saw the silent True Dragon Emperor, they were still quite apprehensive, after all, the dragon race was notorious for protecting their food.

Although Kalon Gogmora has completely suppressed his dragon aura, his massive physique still exudes a strong sense of oppression.

In particular, the large red dragon's beautiful scales were filled with scorching molten lava, and the intricate veins on its wings that covered the ground were also shimmering with intense red light, making its huge body vaguely shrouded in the rising sulfurous heat.

They looked like dragons ready to attack at any moment, which made these people apprehensive.

But remaining silent before those terrifying eyes wasn't a good idea, so Della had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Your Majesty, although we didn't know before, we now know that Your Majesty's reputation is more precious than any jewel or diamond in the mortal world."

"I wonder if Your Majesty's previous statement allowing us to join your alliance still holds true!"

Caron glanced at these legendary destinies and knew what was going on.

These guys weren't just after the Dragon God's treasure, but also after the legacy of this world left behind by Lipnos.

Lyponos ruled this world for countless centuries, and even though the skeletal people of this world evolved from primitive tribes, they have now accumulated immense wealth.

This wealth is breathtaking. Even though ordinary wealth can be easily earned by someone at the legendary level, it's not as satisfying as directly looting it now.

Kalon nodded. "Of course it counts. Although the Golden Empire is a civilization established by dragons, it has always been compatible with the mainstream order."

"This alliance is a demonstration of our sincerity and order to all the civilized forces in this star field by the Golden Empire. I am delighted that you have joined us!"

"The Dragon God Kingdom will be jointly managed and developed by our alliance, but the division of the Lipunos world will be based on the 360 ​​cities that Lipunos once established as the dividing points for their respective regions."

“Thank you for your generosity, Your Majesty,” Della said. “Under the wise leadership of Your Majesty and the Dragon Kings, the Golden Empire will surely become a powerful civilization in the future of the Astral Plane!”

The others also looked delighted. Legendary Destiny Ceci said, "With the support of this alliance, perhaps in the future our star field will be able to truly unite and resist the pressure from other star fields!"

Even Tokam and Yareira, who had already joined the league, nodded in agreement.

"Oppression from other star systems? What's going on?"

Kalon lowered his head, his neck snaking forward, and looked at the legendary Destiny, asking, "As you all know, I have never stepped out of the world of Ekania before, and I don't know much about things in the starry sky."

With the additions from several legendary chosen ones and Ceci's explanation, Charon gained a better understanding of the general situation of this star system.

This star field contains hundreds of planes and is not considered remote, but because the path of ruling the world to transcend legendary destiny is prevalent, there has been almost no dominant force in the star field since the Magic Empire.

At most, they are powerful forces that rule over several or even dozens of planes, but these forces, though numerous and constantly fighting each other, maintain a relatively peaceful state.

No legendary powerhouse would willingly venture into the world of other chosen ones, leaving their life and death entirely in someone else's hands.

Even legendary destinies are unwilling to do so. Therefore, the struggles between the major forces in this star field are often conducted in specific planes, trying to avoid touching their homelands.

Many major powers have therefore turned their attention to exploring outer planes, and rarely fight in this star system.

However, the paths to crossing the threshold of destiny are different in the other star regions, so a supreme council composed of many powerful legends emerged, establishing what is known as a republic.

It is nominally a certain republic, but in reality it has formed an oligarchy that rules over an entire powerful star field.

If this star field didn't contain many legendary, unconquerable worlds of destiny, it might have long been completely divided up, conquered, and ruled by the other star fields.

However, due to the characteristics of this star field, it was contemptuously referred to as the 'parasite' star field by the surrounding star fields.

“Interesting,” Caron said, stroking his broad chin with his massive claws. “The Parasite Starfield, huh? That’s a very apt description!”
