Chapter 528: Accomplishment of the Road to Legendary and Rewards
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Roar!”
Faced with the overwhelming ten thousand vines of the Demonized Flowers of the Other Shore that were dancing like snakes, Guan Yu hadn’t done anything yet, and the Red Dragon underneath him, which was covered in fiery Dragon Aura, already roared and spewed out scorching flames towards the vines that were rising to the sky!
[Red Dragon]
[Level: Transcendent Rank-5]
[Rarity: Quasi Boss]
[Description: The Red Rabbit Horse has evolved into a dragon after acquiring the True Dragon’s Blood. It has also been polished by Guan Yu with his own divine power so that its dragon flames can carry horrifying damage.]
Pop! Crackle!
The vines of the Flowers of the Other Shore, which emerged on the ground without the protection of the bloody demonic aura, were ignited and burned into ash.
“Ahhhhhhhhhh!”
Twisted black shadows were revealed in the high temperature. They shrieked like living creatures and quickly moved back to the bloodstained swamp!
Puchi! Puchi!
However, the red dragon flames, like parasites, burned all the way to the ground along the vines.
All the Flowers of the Other Shore were caught in red flames.
Gurgle, gurgle...
Even the Transcendent Rank-5 Boss Flower of the Other Shore couldn’t resist the Transcendent flames which suppressed every plant.
It quickly shrank into the swamp and attempted to flee.
Clang!
All of a sudden, the roar of a saber echoed again.
A green dragon-shaped aura dashed out of the Green Dragon Crescent Moon Saber and dug into the ground, roaring.
Several seconds later, the vines of Boss Flower of the Other Shore trembled and shed dark red demonic blood, before they all withered.
Pew!
After slaying one Transcendent creature, the green dragon-shaped saber aura even resurfaced from the mud and chopped off the wings of a Fallen Angel that was launching dark spells towards the soldiers of Dragon City!
After executing two Transcendent Demonized Commanders in a row, the green saber aura ran out of its power.
However, Guan Yu, on the back of the Red Dragon in the sky, already waved his weapon for the third time.
“Roar!”
The green dragon-shaped saber aura roared again and cut apart the upper half of a Demonized Thousand-Year Snow Toad, which was half-hidden inside the bloody swamp that was as huge as a mountain and had just extended its tongue for hundreds of meters to catch a soldier of Dragon City as if he were a mosquito.
Splash!
A tremendous amount of crimson venom erupted from the remaining half of the Demonized Snow Toad’s body before splashing out like rainwater.
When the demons were hit by the venom, they were all melted into smelly mud!
“&#%#@~”
After a furious roar, an enormous demon who had six arms and three pairs of dark red wings and released the Transcendent Rank-6 aura surfaced on the swamp.
Brutality beamed in its eyes as it pulled a bloody bow and shot an arrow towards Guan Yu.
There was a rumbling sound.
All the bloody aura above the swamp was concentrated to the center and gathered into a bloody giant sword that carried a magnificent killing aura.
After the arrow was gathered, even the clouds in the sky were stained with blood along with the cries of thousands of fiends.
“Huh?”
On the Red Dragon’s back, Guan Yu finally opened his eyes.
Instantly, the world changed, and the clouds in the sky radiated golden light. The image of a Martial Saint that was several kilometers tall showed up.
It broke through the bloodiness in the sky and suppressed all the ghostly roars.
Clang!
Then, Guan Yu held the Green Dragon Crescent Moon Saber with both hands.
He waved it for the fourth time, and a green dragon descended from the sky, cutting the bloody arrow as well as the Transcendent Rank-6 demon commander into halves from head to toe.
“&#%#@!”
As if they recognized Guan Yu’s strength, a dozen demons who carried Transcendent vibes and a hundred Extraordinary Rank-8 and Rank-9 ones suddenly covered themselves in flames.
Then, they rose to the sky and established a bloody formation that marched towards Guan Yu in the sky.
Clang!
Guan Yu raised his brows.
After the fifth attack, the Azure Dragon was wreathed in blood!
The formation of fire fell from the sky, and the demons’ blood that was still ablaze blackened and boiled the ground.
While the formation could gather everyone’s strength and even increase its level, it could not make up for the huge strength gap between the two parties!
Undoubtedly, Guan Yu, as a top Legendary hero, was capable of destroying the demon settlement on his own.
As a result, the women and children among demons in the swamp who were only Extraordinary seemed desperate.
“The fifth attack!”
After opening his eyes, Guan Yu didn’t show any sympathy at all.
Instead, he grabbed the Green Dragon Crescent Moon Saber with both hands and launched another enormous saber aura, which cut apart the substantial bloody demonic aura and moved towards where the women and children gathered!
“Roar!”
A gigantic shield to which ten thousand demons with different appearances and vibes were engraved stopped in the way of the green saber aura.
It was the Sinners’ Shield, the settlement core of the demons!
It gained the ability to fight after the settlement core reached the Transcendent level. With its ability to resist all attacks, it was even more powerful than most heroes.
Boom!
The roaring green dragon collided with the red shield where thousands of demons were screaming.
Instantly, the wind and the clouds were frozen, and even the time seemed to be paused for one moment!
Crack!
After a crack, while thousands of demons seemed frightened and infuriated, a crack appeared on the enormous shield and then fell apart.
After that, the thousand women and children were all beheaded after the sharp saber aura hit them!
The demons’ settlement core was destroyed!
However, Guan Yu didn’t stop there. He waved his saber for the sixth time.
Boom! Boom!
In the sky, the clouds were surging and the light was flashing. The Martial Saint, which emitted a golden light and was more than a thousand meters tall, merged with Guan Yu himself.
The gigantic Green Dragon Crescent Moon Saber launched a saber aura that was more than ten thousand meters long towards the demons’ settlement. The swamp, which stretched ten kilometers, was cut into halves by Guan Yu!
[“Your subordinate has slain a Transcendent Rank-4 Commander Fallen Angel. You’ve received some additional contribution...”]
[“Your subordinate executed a Transcendent Rank-5 Boss Demonized Thousand-Year Snow Toad. You’ve received...”]
[“Your subordinate executed a Transcendent Rank-5 Quasi Legendary alien...”]
...
At Dragon City in the dreamland...
Many pieces of information flashed in Ji Ye’s head while he was in the Divine Dragon status.
“It seems that the demons cannot endure any longer. What are those dragons up to? Why are they still not taking action? How long will they wait?”
Even though he narrowed his eyes, his mental power had completely covered the hundreds of Transcendent dragons on his opposite sound. He was able to see and hear everything that they were doing and talking about.
“My king, why are we still not launching an attack?”
“Indeed. The dragons cannot endure any longer. If we don’t take action, we won’t stand any chance of winning if the humans return after defeating the demons!”
“We will surely fail if we keep waiting!”
The dragons were also talking to each other earnestly and telepathically.
All the dragons were looking at a translucent six-winged silver dragon.
She was Ysera, the queen of dragons. She wasn’t a “hero”, but a player among the dragons who had received Legendary rating.
Even in reality, she was also a princess among the dragons. Also, since the entire Dream Dragon Island was based on her talent skill and abilities, she had the final decision in this settlement of dragons!
During the previous half-year, humankind had destroyed one alien group after another.
The Mountain Giants, the Elves, the Chimeras, the Asuras, the Undead, the Foxes, the Vampires...
At this moment, only two alien groups, namely the demons and the dragons, remained.
Both of the settlements had destroyed many competitive settlements, and their settlement cores had reached Transcendent Rank-5.
The demons boasted the ability to demonize living creatures and even the non-living creatures, whereas the dragons were very strong and all of them had Transcendent combat abilities.
Faced with the domineering Dragon City, they unsurprisingly chose to collaborate across species.
The demons, with the enormous population of demonized creatures, kept Dragon City’s warriors busy in reality.
Eight hundred Transcendent dragons, led by the Dream Forging Queen, marched to the central area of Dragon City within the dreamland for a decapitation operation!
However, when the demons were failing, the dragon queen didn’t give any signal to attack.
“My queen, do we announce the decision?” a steam dragon, whose voice was hoarse and sounded like rubbing metals and whose body parts had been mostly replaced with machines, asked.
“What decision?” a fiery dragon asked, sensing that it was nothing good.
“We’re here not to wage war against humankind together with demons but to decide whether or not to surrender depending on the circumstances!”
The dragon in the sky, which was completely transparent, sounded distant and unpredictable.
“What?”
“No!”
“How can we surrender? We’re the great dragons. We cannot surrender to those insignificant human beings!”
The dragons were in chaos.
All of them emitted intense energy waves. Obviously, the decision was shocking and unacceptable.
“How can we weather through the Great Darkness without surrendering? All of our people will die!” the steam machine dragon asked back in a dull tone.
“Don’t we have another settlement?”
Obviously, as creatures who had a long longevity, the dragons knew a thing or two about the Great Darkness.
“Something happened to them!”
The dragons had indeed planned to deal with Dragon City together with the demons.
However, something unexpected disrupted their plan.
Those dragons didn’t come from the original universe that Earth was in but from a special plane.
Unlike human beings whose initial level was low, the dragons were born with Transcendent power, but they had fewer settlements.
After such a long time, there were only two settlements left.
When the demons launched the attack, the leaders of the dragons learned that the other settlement was attacked by a competitive settlement and was crushed!
At this moment, the dragons were undoubtedly caught in a dilemma.
If they were to attack, the Transcendent Rank-7 Divine Dragon in the sky left an insurmountable and intimidating aura that scared him.
Also, if they couldn’t conquer Dragon City and their other settlement failed, it meant that none of the dragons could survive the Great Darkness.
Luckily, there was still one way to go. The Road to Legendary quest didn’t demand all alien settlements to be destroyed. The requirement would be met as long as all the other settlements surrendered.
Of course, a simple submission wouldn’t be enough. It would be best if they did something to prove their loyalty, for example, by attacking the demons who were supposed to be their allies!
“It seems that everything has been settled!”
The dragons never launched an attack, so Ji Ye naturally didn’t do anything voluntarily.
Time was definitely on Dragon City’s side. The demons alone couldn’t possibly resist the tanks and warships of Dragon City!
“Ten suns in the sky!”
In the picture, the army led by Zhou Yu had already broken through the demons’ last fortress that was built with demonic water that could corrode everything.
Zhou Yu, standing on the Phoenix Guqin Warship, detonated the Transcendent power in ten nuclear bombs and condensed golden crows with them.
The venomous lake was instantly vaporized. In the middle of the dry lake, besides an offering that emitted a silver and orange light and that could possibly summon a Legendary hero, there was also an item that seemed to be a book!
[“Your settlement has destroyed the demons’ settlement core. Honor gained: 15,060. Rare Honor gained: 400.”]
[“Your settlement has received a Book of Civilization (mid-size)!”]
Yes, a Book of Civilization.
Unlike when the Extraordinary settlements were destroyed, the Transcendent settlements gave Books of Civilization after they were destroyed.
Recently, Dragon City had destroyed more than fifteen Transcendent sub-settlements and received new settings such as the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, One Piece, etc. Relevant branch settlements had been set up too!
Almost the moment the demons’ settlement was destroyed, the dragons made a final decision.
“What? Surrender?”
In the sky, Ji Ye, who had transformed into a Divine Dragon, received the dragons’ telepathic message.
For a moment, he thought that his ears deceived him.
Over the previous six months, Dragon City had encountered a lot of species that were recorded in ancient myths.
Whether they were strong or weak, they had always fought until the end against Dragon City.
None of the species ever surrendered.
Even the ants, the kobolds, and the goblins that were weak with initial levels that were lower than that of humankind didn’t choose to surrender either.
Yet, the dragons, which were on the top of the food chain in all tales, had decided to surrender to human beings?
Was it some sort of plot?
Were they pretending to surrender so that they could launch a critical strike at the crucial moment?
“We would like to serve you, master!”
However, after the hundreds of Transcendent dragons chose to surrender in front of Dragon City’s wall and the Dream Queen even signed a contract with him so that he could sense everything she did with the mental link, Ji Ye was finally reassured that the dragons had sincerely surrendered and even proved their loyalty by betraying the demons!
It was undoubtedly a wise choice.
If their other settlement perished, they would be the hope for the dragons.
If their other settlement wasn’t destroyed, they could kill themselves and be reborn outside of Dragon City.
[“The settlement of the dragons chose to surrender to Dragon City. Half of their power of providence is alloted to Dragons of Providence. Also, all of their future rituals must be performed under the surveillance of the observers from Dragon City.”]
A notification sounded.
It also marked that Dragon City became the first settlement to accomplish the Road to Legendary quest on Earth.
[“Your settlement has accomplished the Road to Legendary quest.”]
[“Based on your performance during the quest, you’ve received a Transcendent Rank-7 Legendary Stone of Civilization, a hundred player invitations, and 250,000 Civilization Coins. Your City of Humans Card is improved to the Legendary level. You’ve also been given a chance to shop in the City of Humans!”]
The rewards for himself were quite abundant.
Leaving apart the Stone of Civilization that could be transformed into a Legendary item, the hundred invitations were already shockingly valuable!
The news of the Great Darkness had been inevitably spread out among certain groups on Earth. What one invitation could be exchanged for was ten times more precious than what it was worth last time.
It was safe to say that a hundred invitations were enough to pay off the debt that the Dragon City on Earth owed.
Of course, considering that the loans didn’t have to be repaid at all, the reopening of the City of Humans was actually more significant.
This was because few human settlements had reached the Legendary level, and it was impossible to activate the Battlefield of Providence.
However, ever since the City of Humans was closed last time, Ji Ye had accumulated more than a hundred thousand Honor points, which were enough for him to buy a lot of powerful items in the City of Humans.
Apart from the rewards for himself, those for Dragon City were quite generous too.
[“Legendary Soul of Civilization * 5, Transcendent Soul of Civilization * 1,000, Extraordinary Soul of Civilization * 50,000...”]
[“Based on the ranking of contributions during the quest, Li Chunfeng, Ruan Xiaoqi, Gao Shun... and so on are qualified to be revived. They can be summoned via the special Souls of Civilization!”]
Apart from the rewards, another piece of information raised a heated discussion.
[“‘Dragon City’ has reached Transcendent Rank-5 and has more than one Legendary hero. The requirements for the Legendary advancement test are met... The Legendary advancement test will begin in a hundred days. Please be prepared!”]
“Legendary advancement test?”
“Is it going to be like the Transcendent advancement test?”
“I’m not sure. Maybe it’s going to be harder than last time.”
“What are you scared of? Dragon City is so powerful that even the dragons have knelt down to us. It shouldn’t be a problem for us to pass the rest!”
Sensing the information in their heads, the players were generally excited.
After all, Dragon City had crushed a hundred competitive species unstoppably in the previous six months. Even the dragons, a supposedly powerful species, had chosen to surrender.
Did they really need to worry about the Legendary advancement test?
“It’s hard to say!”
“Besides, Dragon City only reaches this step ahead of the other settlements. It doesn’t mean that we have advantages.”
“The premise of the Legendary advancement is to beat all the competitors, which means that all the settlements that are facing the Legendary advancement test should have similar comprehensive strength!”
“This is likely going to be the most challenging advancement test that we’ve ever had.”
Some of the players who were good at analyzing seemed worried.
“Legendary advancement test...”
In comparison, Ji Ye was more curious than worried.
When Dragon City advanced last time, because its core was set in Water Margin, four groups of villains, namely Fang La, Wang Qing, Tian Hu, and the Liao Kingdom, had attacked it together!
What would happen this time?
It must be noted that Dragon City was not the same as what it used to be.
Because of the mid-sized Books of Civilization from the Transcendent settlements it defeated, Dragon City had a dozen settings.
Would the Legendary advancement test be related to the newly-added settings?
As for the difficulty of the test...
The shopping access in the City of Humans opened again, the deceased members who were killed during the quest were revived, and a great number of Civilization Coins was rewarded...
Undoubtedly, they were all clues that the test would be difficult...
