I became the old one

Chapter 38 Donez, the fiasco, the monster emerging from the deep sea (for further reading)

A huge amount of volcanic ash formed a smoke screen in the sky, and lightning poured down like a torrential rain.

In the dark sky, dark clouds rolled.

Huge flaming stones fell from the sky, and the whole city was set on fire like a decaying giant, making a horrible howl. The flames burned in the air, in the damaged houses, and on the decayed ground, spreading. to every corner in sight.

For Dragonborn.

Although such a flame is hot, it is not fatal.

Even some dragon descendants with distorted wounds gradually healed with the help of the flames and regained their sanity again.

And the enemies of the Dragonborn.

The completely degenerated residents of the city melted like candles under the burning of the flames, and finally disappeared into fly ash.

no matter what.

This war is over.

It ended in a process that no one expected.

Donez watched helplessly as the city he once dreamed of collapsed, burned, and completely disappeared in front of him.

He was unwilling, but more fortunate.

The monsters in the city were too terrifying, and they brought Donez a huge spiritual impact, with a strong body, undead vitality, and a powerful pollution ability like a plague.

In less than an hour since the battle started.

More than half of the [-] dragon descendants have completely lost their combat effectiveness, and the rest are also wounded.

Those unremarkable injuries.

For Dragonborn, it feels almost nothing.

But within the city's sphere of influence, no wound, however small, would fester with time, leading to inevitable corruption.

There is no doubt that if this war continues.

The team led by Donez will be wiped out.

Thirty thousand dragon descendants... Even for the current dragon descendant tribe, it is a huge number.

If such a sad thing really happened, there is no doubt that Donez himself will definitely be nailed to the tribe's shame pillar. Fortunately, although the current situation is bad, it has not yet developed to the point of irreversibility.

"retreat!"

Donez issued an order that the city had been destroyed, and there was no point in continuing to fight.

His subordinates began to collect the remaining troops and evacuated to the rear in an orderly manner.

"Donez."

Hispania's voice came from behind.

Donez turned and looked towards his only relative.He saw that Hispania's eye sockets were slightly red, as if she had just cried.

"This is the last gift your father will give you." Hispania said coldly to his elder brother.

Although Hispania didn't know what happened in the city just now, it is conceivable that this incident must be related to his father Adam.

Even if it has become a monster.

Adam still didn't forget his child, and he didn't forget his mission.

"I see."

Donez's expression was full of loneliness, this time he didn't quarrel with his sister.

He looked at the burning city in front of him, and remembered the years when he was a child and his father in the martial arts arena.Since his adulthood, Donez's dream has always been to surpass his father and become the most outstanding king in the history of Dragonborn.

But now, Donez has understood.

It is no longer possible to do this by myself.

"Then what are you going to do next?" Hispania finally softened his tone, looked up at his brother, and asked with some concern.

"I want to bring the army back to Gatan City first, and then prepare for the war with the deep divers and ice monsters."

Donez forced a smile on his face: "I originally wanted to be crowned king in Shenqi City, but it seems that I have no chance now. In the future, I hope that I can participate in more wars and accumulate meritorious deeds. Rebuild Shenqi City from the ruins."

"That's good."

Hispania comforted softly, "Although the life of a dragonborn is long, it is still limited. Your power is a gift from the gods. Don't waste it, use it on the right path."

"It's the same for you." Donez rubbed his sister's head.

……

When Donez sent to Shenqi City, he brought a total of [-] dragon descendants and [-] primitive tyrannosaurs.

And in the short war.

Tens of thousands of dragon descendants were directly polluted by monsters and completely lost their minds and fell into madness.

Primitive tyrannosaurs without intelligence are more susceptible to the power of evil gods, and more than [-] primitive tyrannosaurs have turned into twisted and wriggling monsters.

These mindless aberrations were reduced to ashes in the fires that swept across cities and fields.

When leaving.

Donez's army suffered heavy losses, with less than [-] dragon descendants and less than [-] primitive tyrannosaurs left, and the morale of the entire army seemed quite low.

After walking for half a day, the sky was slightly red.

Donez parked his army in a coastal forest with beautiful scenery and rich environment.

The already hungry Dragonborn and Primordial Tyrannosaurus relaxed and started hunting.

Soon, dragon descendants dragged huge dinosaur corpses towards the camp. The bonfire was blazing, and the rough singing of dragon descendant warriors mixed with the tide of the sea.

Brother and sister Donez and Hispania stand on a green hill.

Compared to the relaxation of the Dragonborn warriors.

On the contrary, the two brothers and sisters were a little nervous, their muscles tensed, and they looked around at the surrounding environment.

"Would it be too risky to do this..."

Hispania looked towards the sea, the sun was setting, and the red light was everywhere, and countless gold-like rays of light sprinkled on the calm sea, which looked calm and peaceful.

But Hispania didn't feel relieved, "Will those deep divers take this opportunity to attack?"

Since the discovery of those monsters with fish heads and human bodies.

The sea and the ocean coast are full of hidden dangers and dangers for the dragonborn, so that Adam had to specially build cities in the coastal area and send guards to ensure that the deep divers would not attack the pastures and dragonborn near the coast.

"There is such a possibility."

Donez replied worriedly: "However, I received news that a guard patrolled the vicinity three days ago and found no traces of deep divers' large-scale activities in the shallow sea area. We are at risk of being attacked by deep divers." Not too big."

"And the next journey will pass through two high-risk areas. Our soldiers are exhausted and morale is low, and they must take adequate rest."

"I see."

Hispania sighed.

She knew that her brother was caught in a dilemma, so she didn't say anything more, but looked around vigilantly.

When the dragonborn went out hunting, no sign of the deep one was found.

Bonfires spread across the shore.

The dragonborn and primitive tyrannosaurus began to cook food, singing and dancing around the blazing bonfire.

Seeing such a scene, Hispania gradually felt relieved.Under normal circumstances, the most dangerous time is undoubtedly when the dragon descendants disperse and go out to hunt, but now this time has passed.

She looked up to the sky.

The stars are bright, and the starry sky in the natural wilderness is completely different from the starry sky in Shenqi City.

The former is bright and peaceful, giving people a sense of tranquility and distance.

But the latter is too bright and noisy, like being in a big theater, each star represents the gaze of an ancient existence, and the incomprehensible noise hovering around the ear makes people want to go completely crazy.

The prehistoric continent is full of various dangers.

Even for dragonborn, the long journey is still not an easy task.

Donez was going to wait until dawn the next day and lead the team to continue to set off.The night was safe and sound, and Donez found his sister on the mountain in the middle of the night.

"Go and rest for a while, I'm sorry to trouble you today."

Donez could feel the exhaustion and sadness emanating from his sister, and he comforted him in a soft tone.

But at this time.

The sound of rustling came from under the sea, and Donez's eyes suddenly became sharp, as if two torches were burning in the darkness.

Hispania also hurriedly stood up from the ground, looking nervously in the direction of the sound.

It was a monster with a fish head and a human body. Their bodies were gray-green and their belly was white.It has a high raised spine on its back, its body is covered with gray-green scales, its two pale and lifeless eyes protrude high, and it either lands on all fours or jumps on both legs and rushes towards the shore.

The size of the monsters is about three to five meters, but they are numerous, densely clustered together, dyeing the seawater a disgusting dark green.

"That's the deep ones...they're coming!"

Hispania wanted to make herself as calm as possible, but her trembling voice still exposed her nervousness.
