196 Dragon? (2/2)

Yes, what stood before them, a creature of mass destruction. Something that they only seen records of but never met, not until now. A Dragon. Or least, it used to be. Now it is nothing but a skeleton of its former glory. Nevertheless, it is still a Dragon.

*Roar!*

The Dragon opened its maw and let out a piercing roar. The sound it carried were enough to shatter the eardrums of a mortal. To some extent, the Golden Knights who bore the full burnt of its roar, felt their Energy Shield fluctuate with how fearsome that roar was.

”HAHAHAHAHAHA!”

Alastair's hysterical laugh echoed in every corner of the underground district. If one looked at him closely, one could see that he was pale and clearly weakened, but Alastair could hardly care about his weakened state. Instead he felt a sensation of deep satisfaction upon letting loose of this creature. His eyes shone with a crazed light as he stared at the creature. He raised his hand and roared:

”Go! Ruin and destroy! Kill! Leave none alive! Hahahaha!”

The madness contained in his voice made the Golden Knights shiver. They knew that Alastair was mad but they weren't expecting him to be this mad. Their faces turned incredibly solemn, they took out their weapons and prepared to intercept, what probably the most difficult enemy that they will ever face.

Morel roared in anger, his spear swept in all directions, carrying waves upon waves of sharp wind currents that threatened to sever the joints of the dragon. Leona followed suit by blasting one orb of condensed fire after another towards the dragon. Old Lee also moved, his hands turning to a blur, he chucked a condensed lightning towards the dragon.

Due to the size of the dragon, there is no way that it could evade the combined attacks of the three, yet in truth there was no need to.

Even though they utilized their laws and combined it with their attacks, none of them managed to even leave a scratch on the bones of the dragon.

With their expressions turning incredibly somber. The Golden Knights kicked into full drive and stopped holding back. They didn't care about the damage, what's more important right now is to bring this creature down before it escapes and lay waste on the kingdom.

Meanwhile, the Devil Prince watched the spectacle before him. He broke into a mad cackle here and there, he mocked the so-called strength of his old comrades. Glancing at the dragon that he summoned, his heart was filled with confidence. It seems that the destruction that he wanted will finally happen, god knows how long he had been waiting for this chance.

The Golden Knights tried everything they could. Every technique in their arsenal was used, every treasure that they could use had been released, however despite their efforts, they were rendered helpless by the Dragon.

As time goes on, fatigue eventually crept up with the Golden Knights. No matter what they do, the rampage of the Dragon was unstoppable. They already sustained damage from its attacks, they were bleeding all over, some parts of their Golden Armaments are ruined or destroyed, it was also getting more and more difficult to breathe.

Only the stubbornness kept them hanging. No matter what, even by the cost of their lives, they must take down this threat.

They watched as the Dragon flapped its wings, it opened is maw wide and inhaled sharply. Their eyes constricted, the Golden Knights hurriedly erected an energy essence shield around their bodies but their weakness didn't allow them to create a strong one.

Just before the Dragon spit out whatever it is that's on its mouth. An astonishing scene suddenly happened.

A gentle, warm and comforting light shone. It compassed not only the entire underground district but the entire kingdom in fact. The light shone so bright that it almost fooled everyone, making them think that it was daytime already.

Still stunned with the sudden emergence of the brilliant light. A soft, feminine and gentle voice was heard all over the Kingdom. It spoke the following word:

”Smite.”
