Chapter 514: The Real Knight
Seeing this scene, even Ryan's heart was "smashed".
If the opponent only had one more clone, it would be fine. If they tried their best, the victory or defeat could be decided by two or two. But now, the goddess of the underworld, Hela, seemed to cheat and got herself five clones at once.
In addition, Ryan also noticed that the dense crowds of the Poseidon Cult's flying fish knights and manta ray knights gathered from all directions like a flock of crows, forming a large net covering the sky and surrounding them.
Moreover, as if they had received some kind of order, these flying fish and manta rays, because they were all violent water species, began to spit out water mist in a very methodical way at this moment. Soon, it was raining all around.
Obviously, the rain curtain environment was good for the goddess of the underworld, Hela.
In other words, although Ryan had finally led the goddess of the underworld, Hela, to the island, the impact was greatly weakened after the other party's operation.
This made Ryan frown even deeper.
Just as Ryan was thinking quickly about how to break the impasse, suddenly, Menia's spiritual voice came from behind Ryan:
"Ryan, I have a way, but you need to completely believe me."
"Ryan, do you believe me?"
"Hmm?" Ryan didn't know why Menia suddenly said such a random sentence.
He tilted his head slightly, and saw Menia looking at him with an extremely serious expression.
But he didn't quite understand what Menia meant by believe, so for a moment, Ryan didn't answer whether to believe or not.
"Believe me."
And after Menia said this for the second time, something shocking happened to Ryan!
The Red Queen Menia, who was wearing a red wizard robe, was now oozing with blood all over her body. Although the amount of blood was small, Ryan could feel the surging energy contained in it.
At the same time, a transparent figure walked out of the other party's mature and graceful body.
The next moment, the figure came in front of Ryan. Ryan, who was about to resist, suddenly remembered what Menia had just said and relaxed his mind. In an instant, Menia's transparent figure took a step and completely merged into Ryan's body.
Along with it, there were also strands of blood emitting a faint golden color, which also merged into Ryan's body like a trickle.
"Dragon blood sacrifice?!" Seeing this scene, Hela, the goddess of the underworld, obviously knew what Menia had just done.
"Just now, the son of Dragun was willing to perform dragon blood sacrifice for you!" Hela seemed a little unbelievable. Her eyes couldn't help but look back and forth at Ryan and Menia, who was pale and slowly falling like a puppet behind him.
"Yes, you have the blood of many dragons, and you can almost completely absorb everything from the other party."
Ryan didn't notice the words of Hela, the goddess of the underworld, at this time. He was shocked to feel the changes in his body.
The system prompts appeared like a screen:
[The host has been infused with unknown energy, and his mental power has been greatly improved! 】
【The host is infused with high-quality dragon blood, and the blood concentration is greatly increased, automatically opening the seventh form, the 'extremely old dragon' form. 】
"This"
"Extremely old dragon form?"
For a moment, Ryan felt that his body seemed to be surging with endless energy, and his body in the three-headed dragon state was further expanded.
Unlike the original old dragon form, which was 30% larger than the ordinary dragon, at this moment, Ryan's body size has surged by more than 20 meters again, reaching nearly 80 meters, and his strength, agility and other attributes have increased synchronously.
After a rough feeling, Ryan felt that his strength had increased by more than 60%.
At the same time, a fragmented memory fragment that did not belong to Ryan flashed through his mind like a slide, one by one, like a slide show, a young girl, learning royal etiquette, a luxurious court dinner, a majestic dragon, an elegant young man, a multi-headed dragon
"Is this the memory fragment of His Highness Menia?!" Ryan said in astonishment.
He could see fragments of Menia's memories from childhood to the present, and he even had a feeling that as time went on, if he absorbed all the energy of Menia's "infusion", he should be able to possess all of Menia's knowledge.
In other words, all of Menia's secrets were open to him.
This was a great sacrifice for a woman!
The most important point was that Ryan finally understood why Menia had inadvertently revealed a very strange expression when she looked at him before.
"Your Highness Menia, you shouldn't ask me if I believe you, but if I'm worthy of your trust." Ryan sighed in his heart.
But obviously, now is not the time to continue thinking about this.
And Ryan also instantly understood the huge price that Menia had to pay for this move!
He had to hurry up and resolve the battle as quickly as possible, so that he could peel off the other party's consciousness and send it back to the other party's body. Otherwise ,
Ryan was not selfless, but used this method to improve his strength, which violated his principles.
In addition, although improving strength is not as simple as eating and drinking water for Ryan, to be honest, it is not difficult. This can be seen from the fact that he has entered the fourth-level Dawn Wizard in less than two years.
Therefore, following one's heart may be more important to Ryan.
"Ang!!!"
With Ryan's roar, the dark silver three-headed extremely old dragon pounced on the nearest incarnation of the goddess of the underworld. Such a huge body, the speed and flexibility are even faster than before.
Suddenly, the goddess of the underworld Hela realized that Ryan had come to her, and in a hurry, she could only quickly raise the trident to block.
"Dang!!!"
A sharp dragon claw with bulging muscles, with just one blow, broke the energy trident.
The other dragon claw stabbed out as fast as thunder, and in the blink of an eye, a big hole was dug out in the body of Hela's incarnation, and hundreds of tons of sea water flew away.
"Breath of flames!"
Then, there was a cone-shaped flame that was nearly twice as powerful, and instantly evaporated most of Hela's incarnation of more than 100 meters high!
"Mortal, do you think you can turn the tables?"
Hela's consciousness seemed to have transferred to another seawater incarnation, and she shouted angrily.
With Hela's angry shouts, the four seawater clones actually besieged Ryan at the same time.
But Ryan, who had the blood of Menia and the infusion of spirit, had greatly improved his strength at this moment. In addition, Ryan did not care about his physical strength at all. He saw that the three seawater clones were blown up one by one by Ryan in a very short time.
Soon, Hela, the goddess of the underworld, was left with only the last seawater clone.
However, although the clones were blown up, the residual seawater with a faint black color unknowingly came to the feet of Hela's last clone and quickly merged in.
The water mist sprayed by the flying fish and manta rays, as well as the pattering rain around, were also attracted and gathered towards the last clone of Hela, the goddess of the underworld.
The size of Hela's clone also increased sharply again, reaching a height of nearly 170 to 180 meters. However, it seemed that this had reached the limit of what she could control in a hurry. There was still some residual seawater under her feet, but she didn't have time to merge.
Because at this moment, Ryan had come to her!
"Dang!!!"
This time, Hela's enhanced energy trident finally resisted Ryan at this moment.
But Ryan's methods were obviously not limited to these. Hela realized that the void dragon head on Ryan's right side had just shrunk back, and what grew out again was actually a red dragon head.
In other words, Ryan could grow the same dragon head repeatedly in his current extremely old dragon form.
What surprised Hela even more was that the breath that Ryan's main dragon head spewed out turned into the "flaming breath" that hurt her the most, and at the same time, Ryan's other two red dragon heads also opened their mouths and spewed!
In an instant, the three dragon heads spewed out a cone of flames, and they met in mid-air.
It seems that quantitative change has caused qualitative change!
After the three "flaming breaths" collided with each other, they formed an increasingly hot, dazzling and brilliant white flame sphere.
This is exactly the Red Dragon Secret Art in the memory of the Red Queen Menia - "Molten Flame", which requires at least three extremely old red dragons to work together to perform a super killing move.
What is even more unstoppable is the "real damage" contained in it.
Since the power of real damage is proportional to the concentration of dragon blood, the strength of mental power and the power of witchcraft, it has reached its peak at this moment.
"No!!!"
Since the white flame sphere was formed right in front of Hela's clone, it collided with Hela's clone the moment it was formed and exploded suddenly, leaving no time to react, let alone dodge.
"Boom!!!"
A dazzling white light flashed, and then a dazzling beam of light appeared and spread rapidly, not only piercing through the rain curtain generated by the flying fish and manta rays just now, but also blasting a large hole 100 meters deep in the ground in the center of the island.
The ultra-high temperature instantly evaporated all the water vapor, and the real damage simultaneously wiped out the consciousness of Hela, the goddess of the underworld, who came this time.
Ryan, in order to protect the body of the Red Queen Menia not far behind him, stood in front and was also burned by the molten flame.
However, as the seawater clone of the goddess of the underworld Hela was destroyed, Ryan suddenly discovered that a rare female mermaid body was floating above the big hole. The body was almost intact and exuded a faint colorful mist.
Ryan thought for a moment, then turned around and held Menia behind him in his hand, and then flew over and held the mermaid's body in his palm.
With this grip, suddenly, the system prompt appeared:
[Ding! A large amount of unknown high-quality energy that can enhance the degree of spiritual power quality is detected. Do you want to absorb it? (Note: The system absorbs and removes impurities.)]
Ryan's eyes lit up immediately, and he was overjoyed and chose "yes" without hesitation!
In an instant, he felt a majestic and pure energy coming from the body of the female mermaid, which was being absorbed by him at a high speed and rushed straight into his mind from all parts of his body.
The spiritual force particles in his mind, which were originally the size of a walnut, swelled further at this moment!
However, Ryan did not have time to carefully feel the changes brought about by this energy this time, but planned to immediately peel off Menia's spirit or consciousness from his body.
But if he wanted to do this, he had to find a relatively safe place for a short time.
"Huh? Underground river? Cave?" Ryan suddenly found that the underground hole that had just been blasted out during the battle was now gushing out a large stream of water.
After a little thought, Ryan rushed down quickly. With a splash, as Ryan jumped into the water, a few seconds later, he swam out of a narrow passage and came to an area similar to an underground cave.
There were dark rivers and dark lakes around, but they were not large in size, and the temperature was much higher than on the surface. It seemed that this was once a gap after the eruption of an underwater volcano.
Ryan quickly sensed a circle and found that there were no ferocious species around except for some small fish. He immediately placed Menia's body flat on a relatively flat boulder.
Then, he began to peel it off.
"Ah!!!"
When Ryan was about to extract Menia's spirit and blood, which had almost merged with half of it, a pain as if his own spine was being pulled out stimulated every nerve in Ryan.
The next moment, Ryan peeled off Menia's transparent spirit and a large pool of dazzling golden-red blood from his body, and quickly pressed them on Menia's mature and graceful human body.
"Huh~~"
Although the whole process only took a few seconds, Ryan's forehead was already sweating profusely, and a feeling of weakness also arose spontaneously.
This was normal. After all, what he had just received was an additional "infusion". Now that the things were returned to their original owners, Ryan naturally felt a sense of emptiness in his body. However, after all, Ryan had absorbed most of the essence of the divine power of Hela, the goddess of the underworld, and he still had a great improvement.
Ryan glanced at the system panel:
Spirit: 272 (Quality 61%)
"Quality has increased from 34% to 61%, which is considered to be the official entry into the late stage of the Dawn Wizard. Not bad."
After this battle, Ryan actually caught up with the strength of veteran empire guardians such as the 'Red Queen' Menia.
However, before he had time to carefully comprehend it, Ryan heard a mature woman's groan from the boulder beside him.
"Your Highness Menia, how do you feel?" Ryan immediately turned sideways and looked over.
"Ryan, did you win?" Menia held her white forehead, her pretty face slightly pale and painful.
"Won."
Ryan had just experienced the feeling of tearing nerves, so he naturally knew how much pain Menia was in front of him. Immediately, he didn't care about etiquette and stepped forward to support Menia.
Looking closely, he realized that Menia's face was actually very beautiful, but she usually tried not to smile in order to maintain the needs of the royal family and her own pressure.
"Ryan, I didn't expect you to defeat Hela, the goddess of the underworld, so quickly. Moreover, after winning, you sent my consciousness back into my body again."
Menia stared at Ryan with her beautiful eyes, as if she wanted to see through him.
After all, 99% of people, when faced with her offering the essence of dragon blood and consciousness, which greatly improves their strength, will be eager to absorb and strengthen themselves.
It is almost impossible to choose to risk the loss of strength to strip her consciousness and blood essence again.
In addition, this is also due to the fact that Ryan defeated the goddess of the underworld very quickly just now. Otherwise, if the time is delayed a little longer, it will be unlikely to strip it again.
"Ryan, after you absorb my spirit and blood, it will greatly improve your strength."
"Thank you, Your Highness Menia, but I heard someone say something."
"Hmm?" Menia couldn't help but look at Ryan curiously, as if she wanted to hear what Ryan would say.
"Some people say that if a person loses money, he actually loses nothing; and if a person loses strength, it means losing something; but if a person loses character, he loses everything." Ryan said slowly.
"Character? I understand, Ryan, the person who said this is a real knight." Menia nodded and said with approval.
"In addition, you too!"
