Chapter 30 The final celebration of the volcanic eruption
The grand dragon celebration arrived as scheduled.
At daybreak, the extremely loud wind blew through the halls and alleys, completely waking up the sleeping Longgu.
Chen Shuang pushed the door open and walked out.
Several giant dragons flew across the sky, leaving beautiful tails in the clouds. They were in different directions, but they all flew towards the center of Dragon Valley.
The celebration is about to begin.
Mobilizing the magic power in her body, Chen Shuang followed the dragons to the huge circular stone platform in the center.
"Are you here to see the show too?"
The giant dragon flying beside her spoke in a familiar voice, "I heard that some incredible people are coming this time. It would be great if I could meet them."
The colorful dragon spread its wings, glanced at Chen Shuang from the corner of its eye, and smacked its lips: "You look pretty good in human form."
The dragon sighed, "Black hair has become popular in our tribe lately, and some people have turned against me and even said I look unrefined, even though they previously praised my colorful fur for being so handsome."
He shook his head and continued to sigh: "A group of fickle dragons"
The dragon looked at Chen Shuang with a hint of anticipation in his eyes: "What do you think of me?"
Chen Shuang looked at the colorful dragon and could probably imagine how unique his human form was.
She said with some difficulty: "I think it's... quite cool, very unique."
"I told you, they're the ones with the problem," the giant, colorful dragon folded its wings and landed smoothly. "The dragon clan needs good dragons like you who tell the truth. Let's be friends. My name is Rainbow."
Chen Shuang squeezed the dragon's claws and replied, "Chen Shuang."
"Chen Shuang?"
Rainbow Dragon scratched his head and muttered, "Sounds familiar. I think I've heard it somewhere before."
It seemed like not long ago, I seemed to have heard a dragon making similar sounds.
What was it about?
He couldn't quite remember.
“Bang—”
A huge bell suddenly rang out on the stage, interrupting the memory that was about to become clear. Rainbow Dragon looked in the direction of the bell and saw red fireworks instantly ignited in the center of the stone platform, illuminating the entire hazy morning red.
The flames burned fiercely and shot straight into the sky, immediately causing cheers from the dragons.
"Yeah!"
The Rainbow Dragon, which was also attracted by the flames, let out a huge cheer, which merged with the cheers of the other dragons around the stone platform, and an unprecedented atmosphere of enthusiasm broke out in the center of the Dragon Valley.
He exclaimed, "Every Dragon King Birthday celebration is wonderful, but this year's is especially grand!"
Chen Shuang, who was almost deafened by the noise, covered her ears: "What did you say?"
"I say, this year is grand!"
"What's heavy?"
“This year is grand!”
"What's thick?"
Rainbow Dragon: "..."
Rainbow Dragon: "Oh, that's too noisy. Sit up and talk."
"well!"
Chen Shuang was lifted up by the impatient dragon. She sat on the dragon's head, holding onto its horns, becoming the creature with the highest vision in the entire audience.
Rainbow Dragon said excitedly, "Look, isn't it more grand than before?"
Chen Shuang's face was reflected by the blazing flames, and there seemed to be a burning spark hidden in her black eyes. She looked forward as the Rainbow Dragon said, taking the entire stage into her sight.
A natural stone chair is fixed on the red stone platform in front of you. Black prismatic crystals grow close to the ground, silently surrounding the majestic throne.
There was a black light on the throne.
It vibrated slightly, beating like a vital pulse.
The legendary poems belonging to dragons are played in Dragon Valley.
"The great Supermir was born from the dark flames"
Amidst the gradually surging and boiling black light, a loud dragon roar penetrated the barrier and was the first to be heard.
The Ancestral Dragon with jet-black scales was born in this world, and his wise and compassionate eyes looked at the dying people of his tribe.
"He said: Dragons need vitality."
The wise dragon named Supmir led the dragon clan to a new habitat, opened up territory, and resisted foreign races. The dragon clan gradually took root, multiplied and grew stronger.
The black dragon on the stage fought bravely, and the scars on his body became a dazzling badge. He wore a crown of flowers and sat on the throne, gazing calmly at the entire mountain range, silently guarding his home.
The poetry continues.
"Unknown Flowing Fire Falls to the Earth"
The circular flame magic prop in the center suddenly splashed sparks in all directions, instantly igniting the pre-laid carpet. A terrifying raging fire broke out on the stage, tightly surrounding the black dragon and the throne.
The black dragon on the stage stood still, its eyes full of wisdom looking around, and it looked longingly at its scarred tribesmen trapped in the flames.
"He said: Dragons need a future."
The black dragon walked into the blazing flames that burned the sky.
The red flames that burned everything were extinguished.
A melodious, warm and light tune slowly sounded, and the wind carried the red flowers towards the reborn dragon clan.
A petal flew across the stage and landed in Chen Shuang's palm, followed by the last sigh on the stage.
Dragons Need a Future
"But you don't necessarily need me."
As the performance comes to an end, the soothing sound of the harp lingers in our ears, bringing the continuation of life and hope.
No dragon made a sound, and everyone listened to the tune quietly, as if still immersed in it.
The Rainbow Dragon sniffed, "My eyes are so sore. Who arranged this year's celebration? Why is it so annoying to make a dragon cry?"
Although he said that, he still stared at the black chair on the stone.
After the raging flames that burned everything, the original dragon of wisdom had completely disappeared, leaving only the lonely throne.
Everyone was very quiet and no one lost their composure.
Rainbow Dragon secretly wiped away his tears and whispered, "What a shame!"
He is not a childish crybaby.
He had just wiped away his tears when the next second there was an uproar next to the Rainbow Dragon. The heart-wrenching cry resounded through the sky, scaring him so much that even his hiccups stopped.
"Mister Wuwuwu, Master Supimir!"
"I missed you, my Lord, wuwuwuwuwu——"
"Wow, wow, I will love you forever!"
Sobbing sounds came one after another, and some dragons cried so hard that they lay on the ground and couldn't be helped up. Their tails turned and hit their companions who were not crying. Now their companions' eyes were sore and they cried in pain.
The Rainbow Dragon, who had just wiped away his tears, said: "..."
It turns out that I am really strong.
*
"Isn't it great?" Long said proudly.
He leaned out to take a look at the sad atmosphere outside and said happily, "I've been rehearsing for a long time, and the results are really good."
Chen Shuang thought of the group of dragons outside who were crying until they collapsed, and then looked at the dragon in front of her who was wagging its tail happily, and smiled and reminded her: "Go to more remote places when you go out recently."
So as to avoid being chased and beaten by the dragon.
Long proudly raised his head and said, "They can't catch up with me."
"I'm an escape expert who can even slip away when Dragon Valley is under martial law."
A master of escape who can be caught accurately every time.
She smiled against her lips: "What a powerful dragon."
Long turned his head away and coughed: "It's not that serious."
Chen Shuang nodded in agreement, took out the glass-colored crystals that she had strung together last night, and handed them to Long: "Happy birthday, Lilitan."
Long was surprised and said, "You are happy too!"
He took the small crystal pendant, his eyes sparkling: "I will soon learn to become a human, and then wear it on my body forever."
The dragon shook its tail and said, "This is the happiest gift I have ever received. It will be my amulet from now on. I will also take this beautiful little stone with me when I go on an adventure to the volcano tomorrow."
Chen Shuang's eyes paused slightly.
Yasur volcano.
The soothing tune at the end of the performance was coming to an end, replaced by passionate and intense drum beats, but occasionally mixed with the cries of some dragons that had not yet stopped, as well as the laughter of the onlookers around.
After the opening performance, wonderful performances were performed one after another. The light tune lingered over the Dragon Valley, and the giant dragons stepped on the beat, slowly circling around the stone platform and dancing to the songs.
This is the grandest celebration ever.
All dragons feel this way.
Before the song ended, another strong vibration came in.
"Isn't the drum sound a bit too loud?" Youlong asked doubtfully.
He felt the vibrations coming from his body in confusion, one after another, as if the whole earth was shaking.
The temperature seems to be rising.
Youlong suddenly exclaimed, "That's it! Look at the volcano!"
Hot magma gushed out from the long-docile volcano. Unlike the previous fireworks, the magma now flowed rapidly down the ridge like a torrent of water. The hot flames ignited the surface of the rock and eventually burned it to ashes.
This is a devastating disaster.
"All dark dragons come here, and all other dragons look for their cubs!" A menacing voice rang out on the stage.
The crimson dragon looked towards the volcano that was about to bring destruction, his eyes full of calmness, which undoubtedly brought peace of mind to the dragons.
After the panic, the dragons obeyed the command and dispersed.
The silver-white frost dragon stood in the center of the Dragon Valley, followed by dragons of different colors. He nodded to the crimson dragon and flew towards the volcano at high speed with these dark dragons.
Dozens of frost dragons spewed out extremely cold breath to cool the volcano, and the remaining blue water dragons helped suppress the wildfire and block the magma from flowing into the Dragon Valley.
This is a long-term battle.
As the dragons gradually became exhausted, Mount Isur, which was about to erupt on a large scale, lost its strength and reluctantly retreated to the crater, waiting for the next opportunity to erupt.
It was temporarily suppressed.
Dozens of giant dragons stopped around the volcano, panting heavily, and looked vigilantly at the still churning crater.
The crimson dragon is directing the operation of Dragon Valley.
"Aunt, what's going on!"
Long rushed out from the backstage. The cheerful singing had long disappeared, replaced by the unignorable sound of the volcano's agitation.
"It will bring disaster that the dragon race cannot resist."
The crimson dragon said, "All adult dragons will be stationed here, using their bodies to fight for a glimmer of hope for the future of the dragon race."
All adult dragons...
The young dragon realized some dire consequences and pleaded anxiously, "It's been controlled just now. Can we take this opportunity to leave together?"
The crimson dragon shook its head, its eyes gentle. "We can't leave. If we leave, without a dragon to restrain it, the south will be the first to be flooded, followed by the entire Forsaken Lands. No living creature will be able to escape."
Using the dragon's body to resist the invasion of magma and limit the affected area to the Dragon Valley is the way to minimize losses.
"This is the dragon's mission, Lilitan."
The crimson dragon gently pressed against the black dragon's forehead, and time seemed to go back to the day when it first touched the newly hatched dragon cub. The tiny life lay weakly in the accidentally broken eggshell, but made unwilling whimpering sounds.
The former crimson dragon looked down at him, its frail being turned over and spit out a small bubble at her.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile.
"Dragons need a future."
The compassionate crimson dragon said slowly, "But you don't necessarily need me."
"The great being burns in flames"
"The new song sings the secret of continuation"
"But Auntie..."
Long looked up, tears already welling up in his eyes: "But I need you."
He choked up, "I really, really need you, and my uncle, second uncle, third aunt, and everyone else."
The crimson dragon's eyes darkened and it no longer dared to look into the young dragon's eyes.
The slightly red eyes closed, and when they opened again, they were calm again.
"Merciful Dark Priest," she looked at Chen Shuang who was standing quietly beside her and lowered her head: "These little dragons are left to you."
The little dragons brought here by other adult dragons have gathered in the center of the Dragon Valley, and are now looking at their elders anxiously.
"I thought I could have at least one last peaceful holiday," the Crimson Dragon said with some regret. "I miscalculated the timing of the volcanic eruption, so I can only say goodbye in such a hurry."
She promised, "We will buy you time to evacuate. After that, this disaster will remain within the Dragon Valley and will never spread to other parts of the Forsaken Land."
"And Lilitan, please be sure to take him away."
Long immediately protested: "I'm an adult, I want to go too!"
"You're not even an adult Lilitan," the crimson dragon said sternly, "You can't even transform!"
"Until tomorrow morning comes, you are a young dragon."
The crimson dragon turned its head away, its eyes filled with regret.
It’s a pity that we won’t be able to see Lilitan as an adult.
Long cried sadly, "Auntie!"
Chen Shuang looked at it for a long time, and suddenly said: "I don't agree with retreat."
The crimson dragon said anxiously, "Sir!"
The complete map of the Lost Lands was reflected in Chen Shuang's eyes. At this time, the extremely cold snowfield in the north lit up, and it was even marked in red for fear that she would not notice it.
She looked towards the chaotic Dragon Valley and said seriously, "Perhaps, I have a solution."
Magic can be defeated with magic.
