Chapter 193: Dragon Valley (26)
Even though it was a critical moment, Su Yue still had a brief moment in which he clearly felt that his heart was beating for Cang Zhi.
This feeling of excitement had nothing to do with their previous intimacy or Cang Zhi's confession to him. Just like when they were colleagues, Cang Zhi would always appear when he needed her. No matter what the situation was, he could always trust Cang Zhi.
Su Yue often couldn't understand what method Cang Zhi used, but he was the Lord God after all, so it was normal for him to do things that were difficult for ordinary people to do.
No matter who you are, it is difficult to resist such attraction.
But now Su Yue doesn’t have much time to think about those romantic affairs.
Cang Zhi set a fire, and the flames devoured the woods behind the Tianzhu. This was a desperate gamble.
If the hidden mission is not completed today, the world will be almost destroyed. Su Yue withdrew his attention. Cang Zhi has done everything he should do. Now it is Su Yue's turn.
The dragon boy beside him was no longer able to conceal his dragon form. Even his body was growing, and soon this wide robe would not be able to cover his body.
Su Yue looked up and could vaguely see a huge black shadow among the heavy clouds.
Su Yue shook the dragon boy's shoulder and signaled him to raise his head. The boy was in a state of confusion due to the pain of turning into a dragon, but he also saw the black shadow between the clouds, and his eyes lit up.
"Can you make any sound that the Dragon God can hear?" Su Yue asked in a low voice.
The dragon boy nodded.
Although the Duke and the sentinels have dispersed, there are still people left here patrolling. Su Yue must seize the opportunity to strike, because he will not have a second chance.
He took the young boy and continued to line up in the queue waiting for the sacrifice. Although the stone dropped by the Dragon God was very large, it was not as big as this pit. He had to make sure that the position was correct so that it could just break through the magic above the dragon egg. At the same time, he had to ensure that he could protect the safety of the dragon boy.
Suddenly, something unexpected happened again!
A bolt of lightning struck down, hitting the sky squarely. Lightning shot out from the tip of the pillar, and the entire pillar became a conductive tool. The electric current that passed through its heart caused it to emit a purple light that was almost transparent. Lightning like a dragon rushed down from the top of the pillar, and finally gathered into a dazzling lightning, accompanied by a loud "bang", and smashed heavily on the black mud!
With a "bang", almost like an explosion, mud spots splashed several meters high and then fell back into the pool like rain. The light under the black mud shook violently, trembling as if in severe pain.
Su Yue's face changed, he realized that the Duke's magic was about to take effect.
.
The people who jump naked into the mud pool are the medium, and the sky pillar is the channel of the ritual, which will eventually attract heavenly thunder into the pool and use the power of heavenly thunder to destroy the dragon egg, so that it naturally cannot hatch.
This is the power of nature. Even the most powerful dragon god in the entire game cannot stop it.
I don’t know how many waves of thunder the dragon egg can withstand, but it’s best not to take any risks at all.
Su Yue knew clearly that he didn't have much time left. If he delayed any longer, the thunder from the sky and the forest fire might ignite each other, and Cang Zhi, who set the fire in the woods, would be in danger.
Thinking of this, Su Yue seemed to be more motivated. At the moment when the next thunderbolt rushed down with the force of the sky collapsing and the earth splitting, Su Yue suddenly pulled the dragon boy and said, "Let's go!"
The two of them rushed out of the crowd without warning. The sentries reacted immediately and rushed towards them, stabbing with long spears flashing with cold light. The mud under their feet was bubbling with bubbles that could swallow people at any time. Su Yue swung out his sword to block the spear tips that were stabbing at them. In the storm and thunder, the young dragon stretched its neck and roared.
The ethereal cry pierced the sky almost instantly. The sound was like a whale or some kind of flute. Su Yue didn't expect the sound to be so loud. In an instant, everyone's attention, including the Duke and the sentinels, was attracted.
All the eyes were blood red, the same color as the strange moon above their heads. Su Yue knew very well that he and the young dragon had attracted all the hostility. If the Dragon God did not appear as they expected, they would probably be doomed.
All the spears pointed at him, and the people's eyes turned red as they rushed forward like zombies. There was a quagmire under their feet. Although Su Yue rushed over, he didn't dare jump in. The quagmire could eat people. It was hard to say how it worked. Once thrown into the quagmire, there might be no way out.
He hooked one hand on the edge of the pit, looking quite embarrassed. He swung his sword to deflect the spear tip that was stabbing his face, but he had no strength now and could not maintain this state for long.
At the critical moment, Su Yue suddenly saw a familiar black circle appearing above the mud under his feet.
.
Su Yue suddenly looked up and saw a huge dragon hovering in the clouds above his head. Although there was no communication, at that moment Su Yue felt that he and the Dragon God were in tune with each other.
He suddenly raised his arm, dodging the spear tip in front of him, and with a force of his hand, threw the dragon boy out.
Immediately afterwards, Su Yue kicked away the person who pounced on him, turned over and stood up. The next second, there was a loud bang above his head and a huge rock fell from the sky.
When the boulder fell, the Duke and his sentinels finally reacted. They ran towards the mud pit frantically, but were worried about the boulder that could smash everyone into pieces indiscriminately.
In this delay, there was a deafening roar and a huge rock fell to the ground.
In the mud pit, the black mud that seemed to never be stirred finally moved under such a huge impact.
With a "crash", the black mud was blown away by the huge impact force, and the mud spots splashed several meters high, flying everywhere like fireworks.
Others would hesitate, but Su Yue would not, as this was his only chance.
He clearly saw the dragon egg lying at the bottom of the mud pit.
The egg was tiny, barely the size of a fist. Though buried in the mud, the shell shone with a lustrous, pinkish-white glow, protecting the dragon egg intact.
.
The dragon egg appeared, and the dragon god's roar that pierced the sky was heard overhead, but the thunder and lightning became even more crazy. Although the Duke and the sentinels were not present, the evil magic did not stop at all.
As soon as the dragon egg appeared, thicker lightning quickly condensed in the sky.
The bright electric light crackled like a spider web, tearing the entire sky apart and quickly forming a huge pillar of lightning. The air was filled with electric charges, making Su Yue feel like his hair stood up.
The shape of that lightning was terrifying, and it was so bright that it was blinding under the deep blue night sky. It looked even thicker than the pillar of heaven.
If this lightning really struck, not only the dragon egg, but the entire valley would probably disappear in an instant.
In the sky, the Dragon God roared and faced the thunder and lightning without hesitation. On the ground, Su Yue pounced on the dragon egg without hesitation, facing the priests, the Duke and the sentries.
While flying, Su Yue took out three fruits from his pocket, crushed one, leaving two, and smeared the fragrant pulp and the faintly fragrant peel on the dragon egg's face.
Su Yue only knew that tree fruits could hatch dragon eggs, but he didn't know which method could hatch dragon eggs, so he simply tried all three methods at the same time.
At such a critical moment, Su Yue suddenly sensed something was wrong.
He could sense that the dragon egg in his arms reacted immediately after he took out the fruit. Something within the shell stirred, as if trying to break free. Even the pale pink, protective glow outside the shell rippled with the rhythmic movement of the object within.
Normally the dragon egg should hatch soon, but for some reason, there was no sign of the egg hatching.
It is unclear whether the light pink protective cover is protecting the dragon egg from being destroyed or wrapping the dragon egg so that it cannot be broken open at all.
Su Yue was confused for a moment, then reacted and cursed in his heart, "I give up! Another bug!"
.
The game they entered was scanned by the Supervisory Office and had cracks. The common feature of these games is that they "have bugs". The bugs don't necessarily appear at any time, but they always cause the game to get stuck, just like the air walls that humans encounter when playing computer games, or the bosses who are set to have an extra single-digit health point.
Su Yue's job is to find bugs in games, but he has never encountered such problems before. Since the mountain village game where he first met Zhao Shuo, every game he has entered has had bugs.
The bug in this game is obviously similar to the air wall.
The dragon egg can clearly hatch, but it is bound by that layer of protective cover and cannot break out of the shell normally. But if the dragon egg does not hatch, the dragon clan will not be able to escape, and the world will be destroyed by the thunder.
The situation was critical. Su Yue sighed and thought, I'm sorry, I'm going to cheat.
Then he held the dragon egg in his hand and exerted his divine power.
The divine power was gentle and warm, but at the same time it was full of overwhelming power. The alarm on Su Yue's ear began to beep harshly again, accompanied by bursts of pain, but Su Yue ignored it.
The divine power gushed out from Su Yue's palm like a surging hot spring, gently but tightly wrapping the dragon egg. Su Yue could hear a tiny cracking sound, but it was difficult to tell whether it was the sound of the protective cover or the eggshell breaking.
At that moment, the sky was as black as ink, and the red moon above was as eerie as blood. It was a pitch-black night, but it was illuminated by the waterfall-like lightning above.
There was a black shadow of a strange beast-like pillar above, mud flowers flying everywhere, a blazing mountain fire behind, and a torrential downpour that almost submerged the valley.
Everything was illuminated brightly, and all the eerie and terrifying scenes were frozen under the shining electric light, like the last scene before the end of the world.
Thunder roared down, bringing with it a strong wind and crackling electric charges, piercing Su Yue's skinny back. The speed of the splitting air was so fast that Su Yue could smell the odor of burning.
So many electric charges gathered in the air that Su Yue's hair stood up and even her breathing felt numb.
At the critical moment, there was a slight "pop" sound in my ear.
The heavy rain and lightning stopped at this moment.
A young dragon head with big eyes stretched out from the eggshell.
