Chapter 339: Interrogation, Special Artifact [Heart of a True Dragon Lord]
Tang Zheng stood on the huge, golden head of the dragon-man Ladon, swinging the magic greatsword in his hand. “*Four Light Consecutive Slashes · Wind · Break!*”
Swish!
Four sharp sword-lights coalesced in mid-air, then instantly merged into one, forming a single point of destruction that struck the head.
A blood mist erupted from the top of the skull like a fountain.
“Aooo—”
The dragon-man Ladon let out a fierce, pained howl. A gash over a meter long, cutting deep into his skull, appeared on his head.
His massive, twenty-meter-tall body staggered forward. Just as he was about to fall, the two pairs of dragon wings on his back flapped forcefully, creating a blast of air that allowed him to regain his footing.
Swish! Swish!
Two dragon claws swung out, swiping at Tang Zheng on his head.
“*Dimensional Shift!*”
Tang Zheng’s figure vanished, this time reappearing on the golden giant dragon’s back.
“It got tougher. Its defense has increased a notch after transforming into a giant dragon. Based on stats alone, it’s already stronger than that old fire dragon.”
Boom!
The golden giant dragon let out a pained groan. Flapping its wings, it soared into the sky, constantly twisting its body, trying to shake Tang Zheng off.
At the same time.
The transformed dragon-man Ladon twisted his rather long neck, aiming the flames that had been gathering in his mouth and spitting them at Tang Zheng on his back.
Dragon Breath!
The crimson-orange flames turned into a sea of fire, covering his entire back.
Waves of flame crashed against the figure on his back. The intense heat and the thick smell of sulfur distorted the very air.
A blinding red light dyed the sky red!
All the humans in the oasis could now see the suddenly-appeared golden giant dragon flying in the sky. Fear was on everyone's face.
From the beginning, they had been hearing terrifying tremors, a sign that their Lord was fighting a suddenly-appeared monster.
But they never expected a legendary dragon to appear!
“My Lord,” Alar said, her face filled with worry.
Even from such a great distance, she could still feel the terrifying aura emanating from the giant dragon in the sky.
This was simply not a battle she could interfere in!
“Such power… only the legendary gods can fight against it, right?” Fear and helplessness filled Alar’s eyes.
In mid-air.
“Where are you attacking?”
Tang Zheng’s voice suddenly came from in front of the golden giant dragon.
This made the dragon-man Ladon’s dragon breath attack freeze mid-action. He hadn’t noticed when Tang Zheng had left his back. He quickly stopped spewing flames and looked at the figure hovering in mid-air before him.
The third-tier magic, *Flight*?
“You bastard!”
The golden giant dragon roared, its head feeling a little dizzy. The intense pain from the wound on its head spread throughout its body. Blood flowed continuously, dripping down its golden scales and onto the desert below.
Third-tier magic was fundamentally unable to harm him, but this fellow’s repertoire of magic included movement and flight-type spells.
This made the dragon-man Ladon realize that even if he wanted to escape, he couldn’t.
He couldn’t win, and he couldn’t run.
This unprecedented experience made him feel the aura of death so close to him that an inexplicable chill spread through his body.
The fear weakened the negative emotions like irritability that came with his giant dragon form, and his mind seemed to become much clearer.
The supreme and great God-Kings and the bloodlines of these defeated gods were mortal enemies. Reconciliation was impossible; only a battle to the death awaited!
The dragon-man Ladon quickly analyzed Tang Zheng’s power. The third-tier arcane magic was not worth mentioning, but the opponent’s warrior techniques were formidable and could be coordinated with elemental magic.
But even knowing this seemed useless!
After thinking it over, the dragon-man Ladon concluded that a war of attrition was his only chance of victory.
The opponent’s close-combat ability was extremely strong. He could only rely on his dragon-man race and his giant dragon transformation’s natural resistance to physical and magical attacks, constantly using his aerial advantage to stall for time.
Since his opponent specialized in the warrior system, his magic power must be limited!
As long as he could stall until this detestable fellow’s magic power was depleted, he could seize some initiative with his aerial advantage and, at the same time, retreat at his leisure.
Thinking of this.
“Roar!”
The golden giant dragon roared again, flapping its wings to increase the distance. He had already decided to use his size advantage and natural flight ability to fight a war of attrition.
*Steel Skin!*
A special ability from the Monk class, it allowed one to control their aura to cover the entire body, making the skin harder, even to the point of deflecting weapons to a certain extent.
“So much health and such high defense. This kind of opponent really is a pain.”
Tang Zheng noticed the dragon-man Ladon’s actions and guessed his thoughts. “But I have no interest in playing with you any longer.”
*Ninjutsu: Immovable Body-Fixing Technique.*
The retreating golden giant dragon’s body suddenly stiffened in mid-air.
*Dimensional Shift.*
With a whoosh, Tang Zheng’s figure disappeared, reappearing in an instant behind the golden giant dragon, by its left wing.
*Ability Boost.*
*Mind’s Eye.*
*Possibility Perception.*
*Four Light Consecutive Slashes · Wind · Break.*
Tang Zheng’s eyes flickered slightly. He found a weak point on the dragon’s wing. With a turn of his wrist, the surface of the magic greatsword was covered with a translucent, flowing energy of the wind element. He swung the blade.
A massive, wind-element slash chopped down.
The huge golden dragon wing was severed amidst a piercing scream.
Tang Zheng’s figure flashed, teleporting to the right wing, and he swung his sword down again.
The other golden dragon wing was also chopped off!
Crimson blood dyed the sky red, falling from mid-air like a rain of blood.
“Ah, ah, aooo!”
The dragon-man Ladon wailed in agony. The intense pain allowed him to break free from the restraining skill, but having lost his wings, his body spiraled uncontrollably out of the sky, plummeting toward the ground.
Boom!
The fall of the massive body produced a huge roar, followed by a heavy smash onto the ground, emitting a dull, thunderous sound.
The golden giant dragon’s body began to shrink at a visible rate, reverting to its previous dragon-man form.
Swish!
Tang Zheng also descended from the sky. Looking at the armless dragon-man Ladon writhing in pain, he cast a spell:
“*Charm Species!*”
“Ah— Ah—”
“It hurts so much! You, with the bloodline of the defeated gods, I’ll kill you!” the dragon-man Ladon cursed and wailed in agony.
Tang Zheng noticed that his charm magic was being resisted and had actually failed. He couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow slightly. “He’s this heavily injured and can still resist it?”
Thud!
Casually plunging the magic greatsword into the sand beside him, Tang Zheng walked forward and punched the dragon-man’s head.
The astonishing power stunned the dragon-man, and his screams and curses came to an abrupt halt.
“*Charm Species!*”
“Huh, he can still resist it. Is it a racial ability?”
Tang Zheng cast the magic again, only to find it was still resisted. He could only raise his fist and swing again.
Thud!
“*Charm Species.*”
Thud!
“*Charm Species!*”
