The stench of blood, mixed with the smell of sulfur and scorched earth, permeated the depths of the "Eternal Night Rift".

The sky was leaden gray, so oppressive it was hard to breathe.

A massive black figure lay prostrate in the center of the collapsed canyon ruins, its dark scales, as black as the deepest night, broken and peeling away to reveal charred flesh and bones that gleamed with a dull metallic luster.

The gruesome wounds crisscrossed her body, the most fatal one slashing diagonally from the root of her left wing to her chest and abdomen, almost tearing her apart. Cursed energy, radiating an ominous dark purple light, still writhed at the edges of the wounds, hindering the dragon's powerful self-healing ability.

The dragon's wings, as black as night, were twisted at an eerie angle on one side and covered in cracks on the other.

Each heavy breath brought out scalding black smoke, streaked with sparks and the stench of blood.

Those once golden, vertical pupils that terrified the entire continent now shone dimly, yet still burned with an indomitable rage and the pride of a king.

Black Dragon King Eluvia - Wings of Eternal Night.

One of the oldest and most powerful kings among the dragons, symbolizing the ultimate existence of destruction, darkness, and the abyss.

At this moment, however, they were forced into a desperate situation.

Surrounding her were swarms of hunters, as dense as an ant colony.

They were no ordinary adventurers, but the "Final Hunting Party," composed of the most elite warriors from the human kingdoms, the northern orcs, the mountain dwarves, and several reclusive legendary mages and Templar knights.

Greed, fear, and the fervor of an imminent feat burned in everyone's eyes.

Slaying the dragon.

In particular, slaying a Dragon King means unparalleled glory, enough wealth to build a kingdom, and... the possibility of coveting the Dragon King's power.

"The Black Dragon King! It really is the Black Dragon King!"

"Damn it, this team fight lasted a full seven days, and we finally wore it down to the brink of death!"

"Eluvia, the Wings of Eternal Night, is one of the top five dragon queens on the continent... If all the materials from her outfit were taken, it would be enough to level up everyone in our guild to the maximum level."

"Stop arguing, she's dying! One last volley, aim for her eyes and heart!" A human commander clad in gleaming golden armor and wielding a holy greatsword roared hoarsely, his voice echoing through the canyon.

Luo Ye coldly observed the noisy crowd, his heart unmoved, pondering his next move.

The mages began chanting long and obscure incantations, and the elements began to converge wildly.

Archers and crossbowmen drew their bows, their arrows, imbued with armor-piercing and dragon-slaying runes, gleaming coldly.

The warriors raised their shields, their battle auras merging into one, preparing to defend against the Black Dragon King's possible final, counterattack with dragon breath.

Just as the final judgment was about to be handed down, a calm voice, completely out of place with the surrounding grim and frenzied atmosphere, rang in Luo Ye's mind.

[Ding! Epic event fluctuation detected... Synchronizing world information...]

[The ultimate hidden world event: The Dragon King's End, has been triggered]

[Target: Black Dragon King Eluvia - Wings of Eternal Night (Status: Severely Wounded/Near Death/Corrupted by Curse)]

[Event Description: Eluvia, the Lord of the Eternal Night Rift and the Black Dragon King, was betrayed and ambushed three days ago. She is afflicted with multiple curses, her power has plummeted, and she is now surrounded by the Dragon King's Lament Alliance, on the verge of death.]

Her death will drastically alter the power structure on the mainland and could trigger a chain of disasters.

[Event Branch Selection:]

[A: Join the Hunter faction and participate in the final battle against the Black Dragon King. Rewards: Legendary Dragon Slayer title (limited time), 1 random Epic Dragon Slayer equipment box, +5000 Continental Reputation. Risk: Extremely low (accompanying the Allied Forces).]

[B: Observe from the sidelines and wait for the event to end. Reward: None. Risk: None.]

[C: ??? (Hidden option. Requires actively approaching the Black Dragon King within 100 meters and engaging in at least one effective interaction to trigger. Warning: This action may be considered hostile by both the hunter and the Black Dragon King.)]

Luo Ye leaned against a giant rock stained black with dragon blood, his gaze sweeping over the semi-transparent system panel that only he could see, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up.

Hidden options!

As a seasoned player who has been in this world of swords and magic for over a decade and firmly believes that this is just an immersive holographic game that is "extremely realistic, impossible to quit, but can be completed sooner or later," Luo Ye has a morbid obsession with the word "hidden."

Moreover, his ultimate goal in the game is to achieve the legendary "full collection"—to romance all theoretically romanceable female characters with top-tier charm (regardless of race).

The Black Dragon King before us, though severely wounded and dying, still exudes majesty, perfectly embodies the definition of a "top-tier charismatic female character" from any angle—although its current form is somewhat excessively large and ferocious.

But since the system has provided a hidden option, that means...

"There's hope."

He muttered to himself, a glint of excitement in his eyes.

Option A offers a generous reward, but that's the choice of ordinary people.

Option B is even more mediocre.

Only C, the unknown beyond the fog, is the stage that a true strategist and a top player should pursue.

As for the warnings that state "considered hostile at the same time" and "extremely high risk"?

Ha, what's the point of playing games if you're afraid of dying? High risk often means high reward, and... a unique hidden storyline!

Luo Ye took a deep breath, wrapped his inconspicuous traveler's cloak tighter around himself, and quietly channeled the faint wind elemental magic within his body, casting a clumsy but effective "Lightness Spell" to conceal himself on the chaotic battlefield.

Unlike the frenzied hunters who charged forward with shouts, he moved stealthily, like a ghost, using the terrain and shadows to stealthily approach the huge black figure in the center of the canyon.

The smell of blood and sulfur grew stronger, mixed with the acrid stench of burning magic.

All around were deafening roars, the booming of magical explosions, the piercing sound of blades cutting through scales, and the wails of the dying.

Luo Ye's heart raced slightly, but it wasn't out of fear, but rather... excitement.

It's the excitement of discovering a rare treasure and triggering a unique quest.

Eighty meters...fifty meters...thirty meters...

He could clearly see the dark golden blood flowing from the Black Dragon Queen's body, like lava; he could see the cursed energy writhing in those deep, bone-revealing wounds; and he could see the black smoke, sparks flying from her nostrils with each heavy breath.

Even weakened to this extent, the immense dragon's might still exerted a tangible pressure, causing his soul to tremble slightly.

Twenty meters!

This distance is already within the range of the Black Dragon King's casual tail whip or a small breath attack.

Just then, the system notification sounded again, with an unusual urgency:

[WARNING! You are extremely close to the high-risk unit 'Black Dragon King Elvia - Wings of Eternal Night'! Please stop immediately!]

[Hidden option C has been partially unlocked... Special interaction conditions detected... Reassessing...]

[Approved!]

Hidden option C has been fully triggered!

[C. In dire straits, offer your loyalty and life to the solitary Dragon King. (Unlock the only hidden storyline)]

[Mission Description: In the Dragon Queen's desperate moment of impending doom, set aside racial barriers and calculations of self-interest, and with the purest of intentions, choose to stand by her side and forge the oldest and most sacred bond with her.]

[Note: The contract requires the consent of both parties. Any coercion or deception will result in the contract's backlash and the Black Dragon King's ultimate wrath.]

[Quest Reward: Legendary Hidden Class: Dragon King's Dragon Knight!]
