Chapter 618: Chapter 350: Giant Dragon Ancestor Essence Blood
"Clan Leader..."
In Dragon Village, when the surviving Giant Dragons saw Duntemolin returning together with Rogel, they almost couldn’t believe their eyes.
Duntemolin had ascended to the Starry Sky together with Starry Dragon City, and had not appeared even when Dragon Village fell, which made many Giant Dragons believe that it had probably already encountered a crisis...
With the double impact of the Giant’s calamity and Starry Dragon City, Dragon Village had almost no strong combat power left. Lotarion, this special existence, could not leave because of the True God Skull.
Therefore, almost no one had the ability to enter the Starry Sky to search for the whereabouts of Starry Dragon City, and naturally, there was no hope for the return of Duntemolin, the Clan Leader of Dragon Village.
But unexpectedly, Rogel had truly entered the Starry Sky and brought Duntemolin back!
This suddenly excited the surviving Giant Dragons in Dragon Village, as if they had found their backbone.
Even Uvie Muzhe felt this way.
This was not surprising.
Giant Dragons have long lifespans, and even Duntemolin itself couldn’t recall how long it had been protecting Dragon Village.
Many Giant Dragons, from the moment they were born, heard about the name of the Clan Leader of Dragon Village, the leader of all dragons—Duntemolin.
This was the "parent" of all Giant Dragons.
As long as it was there, Dragon Village was still there!
Seeing the fellow dragons gathering around, Duntemolin was momentarily silent.
"...I’m so sorry, my fellow dragons, it’s my fault that you have suffered."
Looking at the ruined Dragon Village, Duntemolin sighed and said in a deep voice.
If only it and the Ancient Dragons of the Ancient Dragon Nest had been more thoughtful and cautious at the time, perhaps so many fellow dragons in Dragon Village wouldn’t have ended up in such a situation...
As it returned, it pondered a question... What exactly led to this disaster in Dragon Village?
Was it the cunning schemes of the Extreme Night Stars, or excessive blind faith in prophecies, or perhaps the unfairness of fate?
It’s clear, none of these.
The true reason for the disaster was actually the pride of Dragon Village, the pride ingrained in the bones of Giant Dragons.
Their naturally strong bloodlines, deeply rooted history, along with the presence of the Dragon of Foresight, made them innately dismissive of the notion that anything below True God could threaten Dragon Village, not even a false god.
But reality taught them a harsh lesson.
The Extreme Night Stars, who were extremely apprehensive of Dragon Village, didn’t even engage in direct conflict. They used some tactics that led the dragons in their drive to exhaust their energies in the Starry Sky, leaving Dragon Village vulnerable, nearing extinction.
Among all of this, there was no involvement of a True God.
Ultimately, it was the relationship between Uvie Muzhe and Rogel that brought this outsider to save them, avoiding the complete destruction of Dragon Village.
"It’s okay, Clan Leader, as long as you’re back."
Even Uvie Muzhe felt a pang in his heart.
The other Giant Dragons also offered their comfort, or expressed their grievances, while some felt distressed over Duntemolin’s body.
A moment later.
Duntemolin exhaled, stepped out from the crowd of Giant Dragons, and approached Rogel.
"Dragon Village paid a heavy price for its pride, standing on the brink of extinction."
"If it wasn’t for you, this homeland of dragons would no longer have any Giant Dragons, only leaving behind their bones."
"Thank you, human Rogel, and Master of the Black Tide."
"Dragon Village will never forget your kindness. From now on, wherever there is a need, please speak up, Dragon Village will exert every effort, no matter the cost."
Duntemolin said solemnly, its eyes earnest.
Rumble...
After saying this, Duntemolin moved its massive claws, and its enormous body bowed down, lowering its huge dragon head towards Rogel.
The other Giant Dragons followed suit, bowing their heads to Rogel.
Rogel didn’t stand on ceremony, and after calmly accepting the salute, he nodded and said, "Please rise."
"The Extreme Night Stars and Mother Goddess are my enemies. No matter what they plot, I will not let them succeed easily."
Rogel said in a deep voice.
The Black Tide Secret Society and Extreme Night Stars worship old deities and are not allies. Even if they do not clash with Rogel temporarily, peace can only last for a while; they will eventually confront each other.
"...I helped Dragon Village, first for my friend Uvie Muzhe, and second to curb their plans."
He turned and looked at the huge figure of the Giant encased in ice behind him.
"The thief of Dragon Village is imprisoned here by me with the True God Skull, balancing with him, maintaining a fragile balance."
"I hope that until I find a way to completely eradicate them, Dragon Village can guard it."
After saying this, Rogel turned and looked at Duntemolin.
Understanding his intention, Duntemolin slowly nodded and solemnly made a promise: "Dragon Village will take this as its mission."
"Then I must rely on you." Rogel nodded and then asked, "Are your bodily injuries severe?"
"It’s nothing serious. Since I’ve returned to Dragon Village, all I need is some time to recuperate." Duntemolin shook his head.
It spoke the truth and wasn’t being brave; the reason it couldn’t heal in the Starry Dragon City was due to its peculiar nature, whereas in Dragon Village, its own powerful bloodline alone wouldn’t allow it to die easily.
Hearing this, Rogel nodded, "Take care of your people, there should still be other surviving Giant Dragons in the Starry Sky; I will continue searching."
The reason he chose to bring Duntemolin back first was because it was injured; if not brought back quickly, wandering in the Starry Sky could easily lead to unforeseen complications.
