Wizard: This witcher is neglecting his duties.

Chapter 114 The Death of the Green Dragon

With a mournful dragon's roar, the sharp stone, though not particularly sharp, was cleaved open by the giant's immense strength, leaving a huge wound on the green dragon's abdomen.

Driven by the pain, the green dragon disregarded everything else and slammed its claws into the giant's head. Opening its gaping maw, it unleashed a direct, direct dragon breath at the giant's upper body.

The intense flames, the mournful howls, and the giant's painful roars intertwined, making the entire battle appear extremely brutal.

However, similar to the dragons, the giants also possess natural armor. Their rough skin is comparable to the finest leather armor, and even sharp swords require great strength to pierce through it.

While the green dragon's breath caused the giant intense pain and severe burns, it could not truly inflict fatal damage. Instead, the pain intensified the giant's rage.

The powerful giant roared, grabbed the injured green dragon, lifted it above his head, and slammed it hard onto a sharp rock more than ten meters away, causing the already injured green dragon to let out another painful cry.

Just then, Borch arrived at the scene with Wayne and George.

He swooped down and landed between the green dragon and the giant, using his body to block the giant's advance.

Borch's body was much larger than that of the male green dragon, and his golden appearance was even more intimidating. Just standing up, he was almost twice the height of a giant.

Wayne, meanwhile, had already jumped off the dragon's back as he swooped down in mid-air, and seized the opportunity to stab a strong, human-faced bird-like creature in mid-air with his sword.

A sharp electric blade pierced through the back of the demon bird and exited through its chest, then, with a flash of electric arc, formed a rapidly moving chain of lightning that swiftly struck five of the human-faced demon bird's companions nearby.

The fatal wounds and the powerful chain lightning sent all six of the human-faced birds, along with Wayne, crashing to the ground while trying to take advantage of the green dragon's injury.

After landing, Wayne rolled over to use the momentum, eliminating most of the damage from the fall. Then, he squinted and carefully examined the heavily injured green dragon.

A huge gash had been cut open in its abdomen, the hard dragon scales had been torn apart, flesh and blood were churning, and some of its internal organs had been severely damaged. Half of its intestines, mixed with a large amount of blood, flowed out from the wound.

With current medical technology, even with healing magic, it's probably too late to save him.

However, dragons are quite physically strong, and if they don't suffer any further damage, this green dragon should be able to hold on for a while longer before it dies.

Meanwhile, on the other side, George, working with Borch, was also engaged in a fierce battle with the Titans.

Borch's golden dragon form is enormous, but his movements are exceptionally agile. He has enjoyed fighting and training with the female warriors of Zerike since he was very young, and his fighting skills are far superior to those of dragons who fight solely based on their wild instincts.

In the battle against the giants, he could act as both a meat shield and an attacker. He nimbly dodged the giants' attacks while using his sharp dragon claws to leave bloody wounds on the giants' bodies, quickly attracting most of the giants' attention.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, George, who had been hunched over and lurking beside the giant, suddenly appeared beneath the giant's body. His seemingly weak body instantly unleashed a powerful force, and the master-grade steel sword in his hand was incredibly sharp, slashing fiercely into the giant's right knee.

A few strange clicking sounds were heard.

The giant's defense was indeed astonishing. Even with George's strength and the sharpness of his master-level steel sword, the blow only managed to sever the giant's outer skin and some of its internal muscles, without causing any decisive damage.

The injury to his joints made the giant realize the danger. He immediately abandoned Borch, who had been attracting his attention, turned around, and swung his huge hand at George at an extremely fast speed.

Borch naturally didn't let this opportunity pass. His cheeks suddenly bulged out, and as his blood-red maw opened wide, a stream of orange-yellow dragon breath spewed out from his mouth, directly hitting the giant's cheek and igniting the hair on his head.

As a golden dragon with extraordinary talent, its dragon breath temperature is much higher than that of the green dragon. The giant screamed in agony as soon as it made contact with the dragon.

George nimbly dodged the giant's outstretched hand, and swiftly slashed several times at the giant's wound with his steel sword.

With a sharp crack, George's steel sword successfully severed the giant's right leg tendon and Achilles tendon, causing the enormous giant to lose all support of its weight. Its right leg buckled, and it collapsed to its knees.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Borch twisted his body violently, and his thick golden dragon tail transformed into an extremely fierce whip, which, with the help of inertia, lashed hard across the giant's face.

The immense force knocked the giant backward, seemingly rendering him powerless to resist.

Only after the dust had settled and the giant was no longer able to move did George appear at the giant's head, raise his steel sword, aim it at the giant's eye sockets, turn to Wayne, and ask:

"This giant has failed."

"Should we kill him, Wayne?"

Giants are quite rare monsters and possess a certain level of intelligence, but these creatures are inherently ferocious and irritable, extremely belligerent, and are omnivorous with a large appetite.

It is said that long ago, before humans were powerful enough, humans were on the diet of these giants.

Thinking of the description of this creature in the book, Wayne was about to nod when he suddenly remembered that he hadn't finished his mission for the day. So, he changed his mind and said to George:

"Wait a minute. He's unconscious now. We can get the truth out of this green dragon before making a decision."

After considering it for a few seconds, George agreed with Wayne's idea. After all, he was now employed by Wayne, and the giant's right leg tendon had been severed, so there was no chance of turning the tide. It would be fine to deal with it later.

At this moment, Borch also walked to the vicinity of the green dragon. He first looked at the wound on the green dragon's abdomen with sad eyes, and he already knew in his heart that this kin had suffered a fatal wound and could not be saved.

But now that we've tracked them down this far, we should at least find out the truth of the matter first.

So the golden dragon began to communicate with the dying green dragon on the ground in a slightly sorrowful dragon language.

At first, the green dragon seemed unwilling to pay attention to Borchi, and even tried to stand up. However, after a while, as its body grew weaker, the green dragon had no choice but to give in to the situation and began to communicate with Borchi in weak dragon language.

The two dragons talked back and forth for about ten minutes before the exchange came to an end. It was a very magical scene. Not only ordinary people, but even witchers may never have ever seen dragons communicating.

After the two sides finished their exchange, Borchi suddenly let out a mournful cry, then opened his dragon mouth and bit down on the green dragon's neck. Although the green dragon trembled a few times, it did not put up a strong resistance. With a sound of its neck being bitten off, it quickly lost its life.

After about ten seconds, Borch's initial excitement seemed to have subsided. He slowly released the green dragon's neck, then transformed back into the short, stout, curly-haired middle-aged man. Turning back to Wayne, he said in a somewhat dejected tone:

"My friend, although I don't know if it's the whole truth, this green dragon has told me everything it knows."

Hearing this, Wayne and George also became interested. Without Borch, they would never have been able to communicate with the green dragon, let alone learn the truth from it.

"This green dragon is named Cardison Frix. It originally lived in the forests south of Velen and never had contact with outsiders."

"However, five years ago, he found a green dragon mate and had a baby dragon with that green dragon."

"But after giving birth to the baby dragon, the female green dragon left Velen and chose to live elsewhere."

"Meanwhile, Cardison Frix raised his children in Willen, a situation that lasted for five years."

"Until a few months ago, his child went missing and was stolen by someone unknown. As his only heir, Cardison Frix was naturally desperately searching for his child. In his search for clues, he even killed some humans who attempted to slay dragons and burned some human soldiers to death."

"However, just half a month ago, while he was desperately searching for his child, someone told him through an unknown channel that it was the people of Lower Valen who had stolen his child and hidden him in the giant's lair here."

"And he did indeed find traces of the young dragon's existence in the village of Lower Valen, which is why he angrily burned down the village of Lower Valen and then came to fight this giant to the death."

At this point, Borch's gaze swept past the still unconscious giant, then looked at a huge cave in the valley, and he said somewhat nervously:

"Perhaps we should go to the giant's lair as soon as possible; maybe that young dragon is really hidden there."

"Now that Cardison Frix is ​​dead and his feud with humans is over, if I can find his child, I will take it back to Zerekan to raise."

"My people are dwindling in number, and every child is our hope."
