Chapter 601: The True Coffin Master Bishop! Evil Dragon Gate! (1/2)
Stingham also came closer and asked, “Don’t tell me it wasn’t the Coffin Master Bishop who used the Evil Spirit Resurrection Gate in the Thorns Swamp?”
“Stingham, don’t interrupt her. She doesn’t have much time left.” Ayrin looked grim. He could sense the life force within the priestess slowly disappearing. Two powerful domains were still clashing within her body.
The two domains seemed to be transforming her body into another material. The power was so strong even the best healing skill could not treat it.
“If the Coffin Master Bishop is just a single Bishop, I wouldn’t need to make this choice.” The priestess looked at Jean Camus and spoke softly, “Only the Evil Dragon can convince the Evil Dragon Bishops and followers that it’s possible to conquer and dominate this continent.”
“You have fought alongside the Epic Silver Dragon bloodline, you know how terrifying it is. However, the Evil Dragon bloodline is probably even stronger...... So strong it makes people lose the courage to fight against him.”
“Could it be?” Everyone thought of a possibility.
The priestess continued, “Although the Evil Dragon was killed during the Era of the War with Dragons, his mental strength was too powerful. Hence, during the Magus Era, his consciousness awakened.”
“That......” Everyone drew a sharp breath.
“The Evil Dragon’s consciousness......” Stingham’s legs were trembling. He felt it was too scary.
“At first, the Evil Dragon’s consciousness could only affect the minds of some people in specific places. He could give out some orders, teach some arcane skills and guide us to where the parts of his corps were located. However, after resting for a thousand years as well as having retrieved and repaired some of his artifacts, his consciousness had become relatively complete by the time I came into contact with him.”
The priestess smiled bitterly, “His consciousness could already use the power of his weapons. The so-called Coffin Master Bishop is actually the consciousness of the Evil Dragon.”
“Then, the Evil Spirit Resurrection Gate in the Thorns Swamp was actually controlled by the Evil Dragon himself?” Ayrin had endless questions. However, due to the little time the priestess had left, he endured the urge to ask. This was because he believed the priestess was getting to something important.
“Since the consciousness of the Evil Dragon has completely resurrected, his every scheme has only led to one final objective. His complete resurrection!”
The priestess spoke faster, “His consciousness has already become strong enough to integrate with an arcane master. He has also found the suitable vessel to integrate his consciousness with, which is Rinsyi. If his plan succeeds, his consciousness will merge with Rinsyi’s body. It is the same as the Evil Dragon truly resurrecting...... The entire Doraster Continent will fall to him again.
Although Stingham was reminded by Ayrin not to interrupt the priestess, he could not help but exclaim, “Rinsyi?”
“You must stop him...... You can’t let him obtain Rinsyi’s body. He had already made arrangements for it when this war broke out. There will be an arcane team transporting Rinsyi’s body to the Spectre Castle...... The Spectre Castle is at the end of the Thorns Swamp, within the Apocalypse Mountain Range...... Also, you must not let the Evil Dragon Army conquer the Frost Tusk Peak Stronghold...... Although I’m not certain, I think there might be an important item to the Evil Dragon in the Snowfall Forest behind the Frost Tusk Peak Stronghold. He needs his army to enter and help him find it...... Perhaps, even without Rinsyi’s body, he can also resurrect after obtaining that item.”
“Resurrect! Resurrect!”
Stingham was teary-faced, “Why are we so unlucky? The Evil Dragon’s consciousness has awakened so many years ago! Why must he wait until now to resurrect?”
“The Evil Dragon is too powerful...... With just the Epic Silver Dragon bloodline...... Ayrin alone, it’s not enough. Green Dragon bloodline...... elven bloodline, Storm Dragon’s mutated Undying bloodline...... With all of you together, also my son, I hope you can defeat him in the end......”
The priestess glanced at them one after another. Light of hope flashed in her eyes, like the glittering stars in the sky.
It had always been hope that pushed arcane masters to fight and move forward.
Her voice slowly faded away.
