Chapter 187: Slaying the Dragon! The Greedy Magic Mirror!
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, as the blazing flames gradually dissipated.
Rhode's unscathed figure appeared before everyone.
The power of the flames just now was indeed impressive, but it was still far from breaking his Immortal Armor.
"Now, is it my turn?"
Rhode tilted his head, looking at the Shadow Dragon in the sky.
The corners of his mouth rose, his smile unrestrained.
Boom!
His feet stomped heavily, his body expanding like an inflating balloon, growing larger at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In the blink of an eye, his size had already exceeded ten meters.
A continuous stream of power surged into his body from the ground beneath his feet.
Whoosh!
The heavy greatsword in his hand instantly transformed into a sharp spear, which he hurled fiercely towards the Shadow Dragon in the sky.
The spear's speed was extremely fast, like a falling meteor, instantly flying towards the Shadow Dragon.
Without any time to react or dodge, the spear, dragging a fiery red tail, instantly appeared in front of the Shadow Dragon.
Boom!
Dragon scales were torn apart, and dark blood splattered.
The Shadow Dragon's entire heart was pierced in an instant.
Through the clear blood-colored hole, one could clearly see the sky behind it.
"Dragon? Seems like it's not a big deal after all."
Rhode casually summoned, and the spear that had been shot out instantly appeared in his hand.
A mocking smile appeared on his face.
If it's just this level, then he's definitely going to be the dragon-slaying hero today.
"This guy!"
Queen Frannie, who witnessed all of this, suddenly constricted her pupils.
She had thought that this guy's strength was very strong, but she didn't expect that he would so easily severely injure the Shadow Dragon she had summoned.
Although it wasn't a purebred dragon, the Shadow Dragon she summoned through the magic mirror could fight a real dragon for a while.
As a result, it was actually severely injured by this guy in one strike.
Just how terrifying is this guy's strength?
Compared to Queen Frannie's fear and dread, the knight commander on the city wall, who had already planned to surrender, suddenly revealed a look of ecstasy on his face when he saw this scene.
Although he could surrender to save his life.
But, if he could choose, who would want to be a surrendered knight?
For a knight, loyalty and honor are the most important things, even more important than life.
If he really took this step, his entire family would be disgraced because of him.
If Rhode could slay this dragon, he wouldn't need to give up his dignity and honor to surrender to the enemy country.
Therefore, no one hoped that Rhode could win more than him.
Although, he had never thought that someone could really slay the legendary dragon.
"Don't be happy too soon, it's not over yet."
Among the crowd, Queen Frannie looked coldly at the severely injured Shadow Dragon.
As a powerful magic fluctuation erupted.
The Shadow Dragon in the sky also suddenly erupted with a terrifying magic fluctuation.
Accompanied by a high-pitched dragon roar.
Dark magic enveloped the entire sky.
Looking at the dragon's pierced body, which was recovering at an extremely fast speed, Rhode didn't intend to give it a chance to recover.
As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot.
The spear in his hand spun, instantly transforming into the form of the Chaos Blade.
Whoosh!
White wings appeared behind him, and with a gentle flap of the wings, Rhode's figure instantly soared into the sky.
With the blessing of various buffs, his speed instantly broke the limit of the speed of sound.
Leaving behind a white sonic boom.
Before the Shadow Dragon's injuries could recover, Rhode's figure had already appeared in front of it.
The Chaos Blade in his hand swung, and the blazing flames instantly pierced through the Shadow Dragon's body.
The Shadow Dragon, whose injuries had not yet recovered, let out a miserable wail under this attack.
Its figure fell towards the earth like a broken kite.
The moment it landed on the ground, a chilling intent that froze the soul emerged, freezing the Shadow Dragon's body.
Rhode slowly walked towards the Shadow Dragon.
The Chaos Blade he wielded was covered in flames, and looking at the Shadow Dragon's struggling and unwilling eyes, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
The winner is king, the loser is villain, that's all there is to it.
So what if it's a dragon? In front of him, it's still a defeated opponent.
Looking at the ice surface that was full of cracks because of the dragon's struggle, Rhode didn't hesitate, and the Chaos Blade in his hand instantly flung out, directly piercing through the Shadow Dragon's head.
As the Shadow Dragon's head was pierced, all the scattered dark power surged into the condensed source of darkness.
In the army, Queen Frannie's face turned pale, and she instantly felt the magic power in her body dissipate completely.
Her solid body also became illusory, as if it would disappear at any moment.
Lost!
A look of disbelief flashed in Queen Frannie's eyes.
She couldn't believe that the trump card she had summoned would be so easily defeated. It hadn't even lasted three rounds.
Although she couldn't believe it, the truth was right in front of her.
No matter how unwilling she was to believe it, she had already failed.
Now there were only two choices in front of her, either give up this war and retreat back to the Kris Duchy.
Or continue to fight to the death, but the result, not surprisingly, would only be failure.
It wasn't that she didn't have confidence in herself, but no one knew the strength of these ordinary knights and soldiers under her command better than she did.
Letting them flatten the Kingdom of Yaman was not a problem at all.
But facing a powerful wizard who could even slay dragons, it was already commendable that these guys didn't surrender directly.
As for whether they could defeat this monster who could even slay dragons?
To be honest, Queen Frannie didn't have any hope at all.
People whose strength reached her level knew how powerful this level was.
The difference between people sometimes even transcended the difference between races.
It was like a group of ants and a beast.
No matter how many ants there were, they could only make the beast feel itchy.
But wanting to gnaw on a ferocious beast would only be a pipe dream.
Unless this beast was terminally ill and could only watch itself being devoured by ants.
But the current situation was very clear, this guy who slayed the Shadow Dragon was definitely not a terminally ill beast.
The battle with the Shadow Dragon just now, to put it bluntly, was simply a one-sided massacre.
The only use of the Shadow Dragon was probably to consume some of this guy's stamina and magic power.
On the contrary, they were the ones who were in imminent danger of dying.
"Monster ~"
Queen Frannie murmured softly.
Before this, she had never thought that someone could so easily slay a dragon.
Dragon-slaying heroes, in her opinion, were just something imagined.
After all, facing this kind of ferocious monster, let alone slaying a dragon, even standing in front of a dragon was a great courage.
But now, a real dragon-slaying hero had appeared in front of her.
"Retreat"
After a long silence, Queen Frannie said with a face full of unwillingness.
Although she didn't want to go back so embarrassingly, she no longer had any chance of winning.
Unless this guy left the Yaman Kingdom.
This was not impossible.
She had previously sent secret agents to investigate in the Yaman Kingdom, and there was no such powerful wizard in the Yaman Kingdom.
Therefore, this wizard who had slain the dragon was very likely just a passing strongman.
A strongman of this level could not possibly take a fancy to a small place like the Yaman Kingdom.
And Earl Yaman could not possibly have any means to keep this strongman to work for him.
Therefore, this powerful wizard would leave before long.
She only needed to wait until this guy left before continuing to launch a war against the Yaman Kingdom.
There was no need to be an enemy with this monster head-on.
She was not a fool.
Although she couldn't wait to have Earl Yaman die in her hands now.
But she still had this patience.
The surrounding Kris Duchy army couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard the Queen's order.
They looked at each other, and a look of relief appeared on their faces.
Although they were not afraid of war, they didn't have any confidence in the face of this monster who could even slay dragons.
But, if the Queen ordered them to attack, they wouldn't dare to disobey this woman's order.
After all, being enemies with the legendary dragon-slaying hero would at most be killed.
But if they offended this Queen, the outcome would be worse than death.
Even after death, their souls would continue to be enslaved.
Eternal slavery!
Everyone had already engraved the fear of this Queen in their bones.
