You are all my wings!

'Could it be that Camille's refusal to yield is due to an order from the Goddess of the End?'

Lyon quickly calculated the strength and scale of the dragon horde, and his heart sank slightly.

If Castiglione, Moripe, and Britta hadn't suffered a decline in strength due to the withering of the Sacred Tree, even if they were only at the twelfth rank, they would likely be able to contend with several thirteenth-rank powerhouses if they were to work with the Sacred Tree.

After all, while the Celestial Star Gods are powerful, the Sacred Tree is undoubtedly superior.

However, given the current situation, if Terena is unable to stop this battle, then it will be necessary to find a way to reduce the numerical advantage of the high-ranking dragons and narrow the gap between the two sides.

Just then, as Leon was deep in thought, Camille once again turned her gaze to him, seemingly lost in thought.

The subtle pressure in her gaze startled Leon, who looked up to meet Camille's eyes, deciding to startle her with a threat:

"Lady Camille, are you aware that your all-out effort this time, seemingly on the verge of a great victory, will actually mark a turning point in your clan's destiny, marking the beginning of its decline from its peak?"

As he spoke, he gave Therena a look, and Therena's eyes flickered, but she didn't say anything.

Camille noticed Terena's reaction and frowned, asking, "Who are you?"

"Who I am is not important; what matters is who I am with right now."

Lyon said:

"I am proficient in divination, as Lady Trena can attest. Unfortunately, I have already foreseen the inevitable decline of your dragon race."

Camille said, "I can also glimpse the river of time, and what I see is a great victory in this battle. How could it possibly be a decline?"

"Your Excellency, victory in war does not mean that a race will not decline, nor does defeat in war mean that a race will not become more prosperous and flourishing, does it?"

Lyon laughed.

Upon hearing this, Camille was slightly taken aback and couldn't help but ask, "Are you saying that if we win, we will actually decline? Why?"

Chapter 546 Camille: He's somewhat pleasing to the eye

Lyon observed Camille's expression and, instead of rushing to explain, transmitted his voice, saying, "Your Excellency, you are of a high rank; can you see the problem with me?"

Camille's eyes flickered slightly: "Indeed, I can see that you are out of place in this time and space."

Lyon thought that this might be the reason, or one of the reasons, why she had stared at him so many times before.

"In that case, you should know that I come from the future."

"So you're saying you witnessed the decline of my dragon race in the future?"

Camille frowned and asked.

Lyon smiled, revealing a profound and unfathomable expression.

He naturally did not witness the decline of the dragon race ten thousand years later.

But six million years later, the dragon race did indeed decline. However, what he didn't add was that it wasn't just the dragon race that declined; the elves also declined. The Flood Era was a period of significant decline for the powerful races, and even gods became extremely rare.

As for why he didn't respond directly, the reason is quite simple: given Camille's rank, she most likely possesses the supernatural ability to see through truth and falsehood.

Although I have multiple modes to prevent distractions, judging from the fact that Terena almost saw through my lie a few minutes ago, I should still appropriately reduce the risk of being seen through in my speech.

Camille took in Leon's expression and assumed he had given a positive answer, saying, "But you haven't answered why victory leads to decline."

After Lyon's counter-question, she seemed to have vaguely come to believe that the dragon race would decline.

Leon also extracted the conceptual essence from this lie, and indeed extracted 3 copies, showing that she had some similarities, but there were still many doubts.

As for the others, considering that revealing too much information in front of a group of dragons would not be good, Leon still chose to use telepathy to avoid further complications.

"The reason is quite simple."

Lyon said:

"Your conquest of the Holy Land is nothing more than an attempt to clip the wings of the Goddess of Origin, acquire a large amount of Holy Land resources, and reduce hostile forces. But the question is, have you truly considered whether it will be beneficial to you in the long run by choosing the Elven race as your adversary? Admittedly, this is indeed the only opportunity to significantly weaken the Elven race, and even potentially annihilate them, but once the Elven race is destroyed, how will the Goddess of the End deal with you, the strongest race on the continent?"

Camille turned her gaze to Lyon, her expression scrutinizing him, but she did not reply.

Lyon continued, “In the Eden Era, intelligent species rose to power. Nature gods, having experienced several epochal crises, have mostly perished, leaving only the strong. Although divine species are naturally powerful, in this era they have become sustenance for your dragon and elf races. If the elves are destroyed, the dragons will become the strongest race in the world, and the other weaker races will no longer be able to navigate the complexities of multiple powerful races and survive by playing both sides. In this way, the world will be controlled by one race, losing its balance. You can imagine what the outcome will be.”

Camille said, "As the world turns, a stronger race may emerge in the future to balance the world."

"But you don't deny that if the world becomes unbalanced prematurely and collapses on its own before the power of the end ends it, then the Goddess of the End will not receive the reward of the world's end, and you will most likely face annihilation, won't you?"

Lyon countered with a question.

Camille said, "When that time comes, we'll still have options. We can divide our races, expand our influence across the world, and replace other species with dragons. What's wrong with that?"

The implicit premise here is that the destruction of the world by the Goddess of the End is inevitable and impossible to avoid, because she is born with the characteristic of ending everything.

As the race supported by the Goddess of the End, the Dragon race is theoretically entitled to protection during the destruction of the world.

However, if the dragons' role in the later stages becomes less valuable to the world, then it is not impossible that they might be eliminated by the Goddess of the End.

Camille's answer clearly acknowledged the possibility that the Goddess of the End might be capable of eliminating the dragon race, and that she might have even considered similar questions long ago.

"Moreover, the balance of the world is the result of the struggle between the two supreme gods. We are just pushing a race to become stronger, just like in the past. Since such changes have been happening since ancient times, why does the rise of the dragon race greatly disrupt the balance of the world?"

Camille unconsciously entered into a discussion with Leon.

Beside her, Terena's delicate pink ear tips twitched, and she heard their telepathic conversation perfectly, revealing a thoughtful expression.

[Goddess Therena's favorability +2%, current favorability 126%]

Having discussed this, Leon realized that ordinary persuasion would be unlikely to change Camille's mind, so he decided to activate his newly sublimated [Wish Miracle Spell] ahead of time.

[Effect: Regardless of whether it is illusory or difficult to achieve, as long as you firmly believe it and consume enough mental energy, the stronger your belief, the more likely you are to turn your wish into a miracle (if the wish aligns with the laws of the world, it is more likely to be fulfilled; please guide your wish in a direction that aligns with the laws of the world to increase the probability of fulfillment)]

At the same time, he used various methods to strengthen his belief and be convinced that his words were correct.

Having made such preparations, he said decisively:

"As you surely know, the First Era, the Genesis Era, lasted at least hundreds of millions of years, while the Second Era, the Era of Divine Species, only lasted fifty to sixty million years. As for the Third Era, the Era of Eden, it lasted only thirty million years before its end in ten thousand years. This shrinking of eras, seemingly a power struggle between two supreme beings, is in reality a result of the world's balance declining with the fall of the God of Nature and the deterioration of divine species! All races are born according to the laws of the world; when one race prospers, the corresponding law shines brightly! The decline of multiple races means that multiple laws have dimmed! You want to replace racial diversity with dragons; if given enough time, that might be feasible. But do you think you have the opportunity to wait until that day?"

Strangely enough, it's unclear whether it's because the skill was activated.

As soon as he finished speaking, the earth and sky suddenly shook and roared, as if in response to his words.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three streaks of purple lightning suddenly struck down from the night sky, instantly illuminating hundreds of kilometers.

The lightning bolt was aimed at Leon, but Terena waved her hand and unleashed her divine power, extinguishing the lightning with a loud bang as if erasing a trace.

Although the lightning canceled out the fire, the resulting roar continued unabated, eventually drowning out the howls of the dragons. The dragons turned their heads in alarm.

"What exactly did he and Lady Camille say that suddenly triggered such a massive world phenomenon?"

An eleventh-tier dragon murmured softly.

Camille, standing nearby, also looked at him with a strange expression.

Most gods believe that the imbalance in the world is a manifestation of the power struggle between the two supreme gods, and that the Goddess of Origin is gradually losing to the Goddess of End, which is why the time of the era is getting shorter and shorter.

But Lyon's words brought the issue to the angle of racial extinction, a completely new perspective that no one had ever imagined.

If Leon's words did not produce any extraordinary phenomena, then their authenticity is naturally difficult to determine.

But now that the world is responding with strange phenomena, it means that he has triggered certain world laws and generated a deep-seated resonance with them.

If that's the case, then what he said is most likely true!

[Goddess Camille's affection level +2%, spacetime disorder detected, calibrated... Current affection level 108%]

Camille suddenly felt a subtle feeling, and found that Leon in front of her was much more pleasing to the eye.

In terms of appearance, the silver-haired man in front of me is naturally very handsome, a rare find in the world.

But someone of her thirteenth rank, with her extensive experience and knowledge, would not be easily swayed by appearances.

For some reason, she did feel a surge of emotion deep inside, a desire to be close to the person in front of her.

She had no choice but to adopt a condescending attitude to suppress that feeling, while simultaneously trying to distract herself by talking:

"Did you just make that up yourself, or is it a common understanding in future generations?"

Lyon felt a little strange at this moment, because he had just spoken on instinct, half of it was a lie and half was based on his past knowledge.

Even with the blessing of the [Wish Miracle Spell], shouldn't this have triggered such strange phenomena in the world?

Just as he was about to say something.

The sky and earth changed color once again.

The already inky night sky suddenly revealed a gigantic black hole from which even light could not escape, instantly obscuring part of the majestic dragon body that the Star Lord Taginia had revealed.

An overwhelming pressure and an unparalleled suction force descended simultaneously on an area spanning tens of thousands of kilometers, encompassing most of the Holy Land and the dark sky occupied by the dragon horde.

On Lyon's side, even with Terena's divine power protecting him, he still felt the terrifying repulsive force seeping through Terena's divine power and pressing down on him, giving him an uncomfortable feeling of his bones being squeezed.

Camille's expression changed slightly, a hint of confusion and apprehension flashing across her wild yet refined face.

From the dragon horde came a murmur: "It's the omen of the goddess of the end's descent, the Black Star of Death!"

Taking leave late at night

...As the title suggests, a lot of guests came to my house during the May Day holiday (mainly to visit my mother), and several cousins ​​were also there, so we ended up talking about this topic by accident.

The update will be normal the day after tomorrow, and more content will be added.

Chapter 547 Goddess of the End

Under the pressure of the strange, twisting force created by the combination of overwhelming pressure and immense suction, the eighth and ninth-tier dragons let out whimpering sounds like little dogs.

The enormous dragon body, hundreds of meters long, looked like an earthworm under this terrifying change in the heavens.

Lyon looked up at the sky and saw a graceful phantom materialize out of thin air, slowly transforming into a solid figure high in the sky.

At this moment, the appearance of this other supreme god clearly came into view.

She had long, thick, jet-black hair that flowed down to her ankles. The strands of her hair were dark and gloomy, seemingly emitting a divine light, yet they did not seem to radiate outwards. This created a very strange surface force field that distorted the light particles, forming a mysterious spectrum that was both colorful and pitch-black.

Her features were naturally extremely beautiful, with delicate eyebrows that slanted like swords, deep black eyes like the universe, and a nose as smooth and pointed as jade.

The outer corner of the eye is significantly higher than the inner corner. Although it is beautiful, it is a shape of eye socket that is extremely dark and oppressive, even when the expression is kind.

Compared to the tall, mature-looking Patridis, who was also a supreme goddess, she appeared much smaller, like a delicate little porcelain doll.

Her slender calves were covered in black stockings.

The exposed skin of her thighs between her skirt and stockings reflected a soft, white light, which was very beautiful. The style was very similar to that of Leon's past life.

She was slightly shorter than Yandis and about the same height as Mshiluna.

But her petite stature doesn't diminish her imposing presence at all.

The terrifying divine power emanating naturally from her body, and the terrifying phenomenon of the [Death Omen Black Star] hovering high above her head, all possess an incomparably powerful oppressive force, making them an existence that no low-level creature can look directly at.

Once you look directly at it, it will destroy you from the inside out.

Fortunately, after she condensed her form, she slightly restrained her divine power, causing all the dragons present to feel a sense of lingering fear, as if they had escaped death, and their towering dragon bodies all shrank back.

Even the elves thousands of kilometers away were sweating profusely, their eyes filled with fear.

With Terena by his side, Leon was in slightly better condition.

Therefore, he did not intend to let this opportunity slip by and continued to focus on observing this supreme god.

Her slender figure was enveloped in thick, long hair, and she wore a sleek, black pleated dress with a V-neck that combined gothic and formal styles. The lines of her collarbone and long, fair neck were particularly sexy. Even from tens of thousands of meters away, Leon's amazing eyesight allowed him to see her clearly, and he couldn't help but swallow.

Then Leon immediately became alert to his body's reaction and narrowed his eyes.

The charisma of this supreme god is indeed extraordinary.

I was so engrossed in watching it that, besides feeling my emotions waver, I even felt like my soul was being sucked away.

I had only seen Petrified's projection clones before, and I didn't feel anything special then.

And the one in front of us is very likely the real one!

Otherwise, with his extensive experience in countless battles, he wouldn't be so easily disturbed.
