Chapter 269 The Truth
Xiao Qichen was the first to make a move!

The Crimson Blood Blade emitted a chilling light, transforming into the most terrifying weapon in his hands.

As the blade slashed down, Adrian instinctively raised his hand to block it, his arm trembling from the impact!
If he hadn't used his dragon scales to protect himself in time, there's no doubt that his arm would have been severed by that strike!

Adrian immediately realized that if he didn't reveal his true identity, he would be killed by this group of people in no time!
His scarlet eyes were terrifying, but the group of people in front of him were almost all veterans of battle, so how could they be scared?

"Who are you?"

Adrian didn't understand. He had already sealed off the area, so where did they come from?
Ning Yun retorted, "That's the question we should be asking you. Why did you disguise yourself as a human and deliberately blockade Mo City?"

"This is none of your business!"

Adrian is now solely focused on killing them; he is determined not to let them ruin his plans!

"Ahhhh-"

He roared to the sky, and his clothes burst open with a bang.

The sudden high temperature forced Ning Yun and the others to retreat and wait for the fog to dissipate.

What appeared before them was a silver dragon that was about 3 meters tall and 50 meters long.

The evil dragon dug its four claws into the ground, and its scarlet vertical pupils reflected seven cold rays of light.

Before it could even get into position, Xiao Qichen and Wei Hanchuan took the lead and launched the first attack.

Wei Hanchuan provided cover with his gun, while Xiao Qichen rushed into the dragon's blind spot and plunged his knife into its body!

Scales and sparks flew together. The dragon, in pain, lashed out with its tail, trying to knock Xiao Qichen away.

But the hail of bullets completely suppressed its movements.

At this moment, Xiao Qichen had already retreated two meters away, waiting for everyone to open fire.

Even a behemoth like a dragon can be pierced by bullets.

Soon, the dragon became battered and bruised, but even so, it still had half of its health remaining.

Its fighting spirit was extremely strong; in a fit of rage, it whipped its tail and nearly sent Leon flying, who was standing a little too close.

The dragon roared incessantly, both to vent its pain and as a form of psychological attack.

When Leon heard its roar, his expression turned strange.

He immediately went to Wei Hanchuan's side, "Wait, wait, this dragon seems to want to negotiate with us!"

Their strength far exceeded the dragon's expectations.

Or rather, it didn't expect the guns in everyone's hands to be so powerful.

It simply transforms into a dragon, and speaks in dragon language, which humans cannot understand.

But Leon was the only exception.

"I can understand animals. It said it wasn't trying to destroy Motown, but to save it!"

Everyone heard what Leon said.

But if Wei Hanchuan doesn't tell them to stop, no one will stop.

But instead of immediately telling everyone to stop, he took something out of his backpack before finally getting them to stop.

Will it understand what I'm saying now?

The dragon originally had four legs, one of which was almost cut off by Xiao Qichen, and now it can no longer stand up.

Even its silver scales have turned red, making it look quite pitiful.

It nodded with difficulty, seemingly understanding Wei Hanchuan's words.

"Since you can understand, then don't try any tricks."

As he spoke, Wei Hanchuan took out a pill and threw it into the dragon's mouth.

"This is poison. You will die in half an hour. If you behave, I will give you the antidote. If you don't behave..."

The fate of the evil dragon is self-evident.

The dragon was filled with regret. If he had known there would be negotiations, he would have preferred not to resist in the first place. He was now covered in wounds and didn't know how long it would take to heal.

"Are you unable to become human now?" Ning Yun asked.

The dragon growled a few times, with Leon acting as the translator.

He said that his transformation takes time; after turning into a dragon, it takes at least two hours to turn back.

"If that's the case, what do you want to talk to us about?" Wei Hanchuan remained wary of the evil dragon.

But the dragon stopped forcing itself, laboriously lay down, and did not make an attacking stance.

It kept calling out, talking for a long time.

Leon's expression also became strange, somewhat incredulous.

He didn't begin translating until the dragon finished speaking.

"Adrian said that he was not a dragon, but a human, and the first lord of Mo City."

In Adrian's story, he was originally a poor boy of ordinary birth who, by chance, killed a dragon and was elected as the city's lord.

But from then on, he was cursed by the dragon.

Every autumn harvest season, he cannot suppress his bloodlust and transforms into a silver-eyed red dragon.

During his first transformation, he was outside the city and completely lost control of his actions, killing all his servants.

For his second transformation, he made a plan in advance and went to a deserted place.

Although no one was killed, the surrounding area was burned to the ground.

Every year after that, he would experience the same tragedy.

Because he was afraid of being discovered, he dared not get married and dared not trust anyone.

Unable to endure the torment any longer in the tenth year, he chose to commit suicide.

But the nightmare wasn't over yet. When he woke up again, he had become his younger self.

His former attendants discovered him, assumed he was the illegitimate son of the city lord of Mo City, took him back, and made him the city lord.

At first, Adrian disagreed completely; he wanted to leave and escape to a deserted place.

But he soon discovered that this was simply not realistic.

If he gets too far from Mo City, he will uncontrollably turn into a dragon and lose his mind.

Motown became his prison.

He's trapped here, repeating the same story.

He attempted suicide, was killed by others, died of old age, or died of illness.
No matter how he dies, he will wake up again and become young again.

Adrian felt as if he were trapped in the year the dragon was killed, which he called "the curse of the dragon."

Over the years, he has become numb.

In order to avoid destroying Mo City, he commissioned the construction of a portal, which was then depicted in a landscape painting and placed in his bedroom.

During the days when he would become a dragon, he would rely on this painting to leave the city in advance and hide here.

Over time, Adrian was able to control when he transformed into a dragon and use this ability to eliminate the surrounding bandits and protect Mo City.

Even when he transformed into a dragon, he was able to maintain his rationality, control his behavior, and stop causing chaos.

But he could never break the dragon's curse.

For a long time, perhaps because he had been in Mo City, no other dragons had come to Mo City to cause trouble.

Until a month ago, a silver dragon flew in from who knows where.

Adrian suddenly had a thought: what if the curse on him was because he killed a dragon?

If he is killed by the dragon, will the curse be lifted?
