Sword Pilgrim-Chapter 216
Episode 216:
Wings with skin like a bat covering the sky. However, it is a monster that is different from the bizarre creatures of the rat family.
Dragon.
Their gigantic bodies covered the sky and eventually set foot on the gray ground.
“The Fall and the Dragon….”
The Dragon and the Ma.
In Emily’s mind, the story of the war she had been listening to ever since she was a child comes to mind.
era of turmoil.
A time when dragons and demons fought.
The Great War of the Dragon Horse, where the earth died, the sky died, and everything died in a long war.
that’s right now
It was about to unfold right in front of my eyes.
“Sniff.”
Emily called Schniff right away and got on board.
“Emily. Let’s go together.”
chin.
Esther was riding behind her.
Emily snapped.
Hee-yi-!
cooong!
Schniff, who lifted his front leg, kicked his back leg the moment it dropped it.
In an instant, the landscape was blurred.
Passing through the forest where they were located, they also jumped over the wooden fence of the Holy Army at once.
It was amazing speed.
“What!”
“What is that guy!”
The soldiers who saw Schniff jumped over the barrier and disappeared in the blink of an eye so that they could not stop him.
It was also because the soldiers were already distracted by the majesty of the dragon that appeared earlier.
Emily passed them and stepped on the gray ground faster than anyone else.
‘hurry.’
Shouting faster in my heart, I grabbed the reins and urged Schniff.
After passing through the dense bushes, the first thing you see is a gray land full of ash.
After running and dusting the place, what you see at the end of the run are beings spraying hideous energy that are confronting giants.
Dark-skinned demons and colorful dragons confront each other on a wide plain.
It was a confrontation between a dragon and a demon.
[The giant came from the beginning.]
The giant at the forefront of the corruption side took a step forward and said.
The ax on his shoulder was soaked with hideous blood, and his exposed fangs told him that he was not human.
(Gar is Corrupted Gorgal.)
The black dragon that is at the forefront of the dragon side.
The scales were full of old scars, but it was the largest dragon. Looking at the trembling energy that flowed from his voice, it appeared to be a dragon called Goryong.
As he stepped forward, Gorgal said with a slight exclamation as if he had remembered.
[Someone said it was the Black Dragon, Benishiuf. Aren’t you still dead?]
(You’re still alive, so there’s no way I’m going to die. Seeing that your wounds are still sore, I guess I’ve been waiting for this day too.) Severing Corruption Gorgal
.
dragon of the dragon race. Black Dragon Benishiouf.
they were a thousand years ago. He was an old enemy whom he met in the Great War of the Dragon Demon and competed with on several occasions.
[You brought a lot.]
The number of dragons was well over three hundred.
Each one was bigger than a castle, so even if the number was the same, they were the size of filling a corner of the plain.
(We’ve been waiting all along. Aren’t you guys like that too?)
After the Great War of the Dragon Demon a thousand years ago.
Dragons and demons have always developed strength.
They awakened from the long, endless war.
It would be better to increase quality rather than quantity, rather than unnecessarily prolonging the war.
So they strengthened their strength and waited.
Waiting for the war to unfold again.
[That’s not wrong. last millennium. Did you clean your throat well?]
(We didn’t do anything. We just waited for you to chew and swallow them.)
It was like an arrogant dragon’s answer.
[It’s unlucky… I’ll ask first. What is it?]
(A gray renegade. We want him.)
Gorgal’s mouth twitched.
gray renegade.
I didn’t expect that name to come out of the dragon’s mouth.
[Reason?]
(Three dragons were killed by him. Death was trampled upon. The justification is not clear, and he was born to cause chaos.) [The dragons are
still the guardians of the world, so they seem to be killing them all. ]
(That’s our mission.)
Keepers of balance.
It is also another word for dragons.
Born as top predators, their destiny gave them a mission to keep the balance of the world.
It is a mission that has restrained itself so that it cannot use its strong power recklessly from birth.
Of course, it was nonsense to others, but they were serious.
[Grey cannot be given.]
Therefore, there was no reason for Corruption to tune in to that nonsense.
Gorgal clicked his tongue inwardly.
A battle with a dragon is always welcome, but I wanted to avoid it for now.
Rather than fighting the dragon, it was more important to bring him to the Corruption of the Beginning.
But it probably can’t be avoided.
Is that the relationship between a dragon and a demon?
(Then we have no choice but to fight.)
The story ends with that.
Emily drove Schniff back. Instinctively, I crouched down in the huge collision that would soon follow.
However, her eyes did not avoid the confrontation between the dragon and the demon.
in me
For some reason, it seemed as if his black hair was fluttering in that gap.
“Emily!!”
It was then.
Shhh… Kwaaaaaaang-!!
“Keugh! Aaaaaagh!!”
In an instant, I can’t control my body and get blown away by an intense gale.
Emily, who could see through the gap, saw it.
While the ax of corruption collides with the black dragon’s claws, the heavens and the earth tremble.
A man with a faint smile.
* * *
The battle between the dragon and the demon, once started, did not fade easily.
Even after a week, let alone three days, a decision had not been made.
In the midst of battle after battle, their war was only spread from mouth to mouth.
And there was someone who longed for their all-out war.
‘That’s great.’
It was Callius.
Walking around the battlefield where corruption and dragons fought fiercely, he even hummed while holding Demetri’s sword sheath.
The surroundings were already in a bad mood.
The dragon suppresses corruption with its strong body and blows its breath to erase even traces of it.
There are three hundred objects that breathe the dragon’s breath that even one or two can topple the capital.
There was already not a single blade of grass left around, and the ground had turned like hell with blazing flames.
Corruption did not die easily.
Although they cannot be compared to immortal corruption, they also regenerate their bodies and cut off the dragon’s head step by step with their weapons.
There are not a few people who have been annihilated by the dragon’s breath, but the number of dragons is decreasing one by one as they rush at them with preparedness for damage.
That’s why the battlefield became a purgatory where only the decapitated dragon and fragments were left behind, and only fallen corruption rolled around.
In that purgatory, only Colius was smiling.
Corruption, who died heroically on the battlefield, collected fragments and infiltrated into the scabbard if there was a dragon.
Demetri’s power grew stronger as the battle continued.
And the same goes for the Ashen Legion.
‘If there is a dragon that can be knighted, knight it, and if not, make it into a sword or absorb it into a scabbard.’
The knights of the Ashen Legion are growing day by day.
It seems Niol and Garcia are already trying to get out of the ranks of the generals.
This is because Niol’s abilities, which gave him a new sword, began to bloom more.
Besides, among the general-level guys, Vlady and Agato also showed signs of raising their ranks soon.
It seems to be because of the sword he held.
‘It would be nice if I could turn various weapons into corpses.’
Since Garcia used spears and shields, he couldn’t make spears, so it felt like his growth was slow. If the right time comes, the priority would be to increase the growth rate by obtaining a spear and shield.
“Wake up.”
Callius placed his hand on the dragon’s head, which had just been hacked up by the Corruption Spear.
Then the black tears swallowed the dragon and made it a new knight.
“Is this ten?”
The dragon column that made it knighted.
If Beatty, who was not at hand, was included, there were only 11 gray knights made of dragons.
It’s a pity that all of them are at the level of generals, but since they have been able to command more than 10 dragons, the power of Colius has increased.
‘It would have been perfect if the corruption could also be made into an article.’
Unfortunately, Corruption could not be knighted. This is because their spirits are not normal, and it is not something anyone can cause to become a knight.
This was the reason why he couldn’t raise all the fallen dragons on the battlefield because his strong grudge could be caused by synchronizing with the remaining ones.
However, this alone was enough for Carlisle.
‘Maybe I can call Beatty.’
The one entrusted to Brance is a bit uneasy, and it is the only dragon with the status of a nobleman.
Besides, since Beatty had hatched the egg herself, Callius had affection for him.
‘Come to think of it, Bibi was kept in the North.’
For now, I’d rather be safe there, so I didn’t have to worry about Bibi.
“Now then, what should I do…”
I had enough to gain.
The dragon and corruption were fighting fiercely, recalling old memories.
In the distance, the Sacred Army is spreading its formation, but it is not possible to approach it recklessly.
Today’s humanity, which has not experienced the dragon and the fall, is extremely weak.
Therefore, they were in a situation where they were not qualified to fight together in fear.
‘Even during the Great War, mankind was weak at first.’
But over time. got stronger
Such are the human strengths.
endurance. patience. Humans overcome everything with a heart that does not give up.
It will be like that this time too.
It just needs a little time.
“Things are running tight. Still, I want the empire to be destroyed.”
This was good enough for Callius and Carpe, but it was still lacking.
The current continent has become too big for an empire.
Callius wants the power of the Empire to weaken a bit.
‘Because it’s not all about power, whether it’s corruption or dragons.’
If so, what should I do?
What is the best course of action for you now?
Inside the battlefield where dragons and demons collide.
Carlyas thought while strolling there, and soon found an answer.
‘I am what Corruption wants.’
What the dragon wants is me.
I am what God wants.
And what mankind wants is also me.
“thinking about it.”
His place was the battlefield.
Then there is no need to worry.
“Kean.”
[Did you call. Lord.]
“Lead the archers and go to Emily. Return it safely.”
[Okay.]
To blame.
Seeing Kin and the elven archers disappear, Callius thought of Emily.
I don’t know what business he came for, but he must have been worrying for nothing.
Why not?
It is only natural that the only father has become the enemy of mankind.
So now it’s your turn to pay it back.
“It is better for the empire to suffer greatly once. That way you will get rid of your greed.”
Only when the Empire suffers fatal damage will humanity feel a sense of crisis.
so it grows
Due to himself, the fall and the appearance of dragons has sped up. In line with that, mankind must also grow rapidly.
otherwise it will perish.
This is not what he wants.
“Let’s play tag with the empire for now.”
come out
“Iron Armored Dragon.”
A huge shadow casts beneath Colius’ feet. Soon, they reveal their majesty in black tears.
An ironclad dragon clad in black armor.
The heat starts to roar with a hideous glow in the eyes and screams.
right after that.
Callius’ voice pierced the battlefield.
“Breath.”
immediately. Gray energy swirls from the jaws of the ironclad dragons.
[No way!]
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh-!!
The breath of ten ironclad dragons fired all at once pierced the battlefield.
The battlefield turns into a fierce battle in an instant due to the ironclad dragon’s breath that shakes the heavens and the earth.
Not only the corruption caused by the blind breath, but also the damage to the dragons was severe.
(This is what our compatriots are…!)
The black dragon, Benishiouf, shouted loudly.
His gaze turned to the sky.
blue sky.
Between the ironclad dragons that are turning the place gray. A man with flowing black hair was looking down at the battlefield.
[gray? What are you doing…]
The corrupt who tried to take him looked at him with bewildered faces.
(This guy to tear…!)
When the dragons saw the ironclad dragons flying beside him, they gnashed their teeth.
Receiving their gazes, he changed the rider of the ironclad dragon that Colius was riding.
“I’m tired of this place. Change places.”
Whoops-!!
As ten ironclad dragons flap their wings at once, a fierce wind rages.
In the sandstorm, Colius’ voice cut across the battlefield.
“Come to the Empire.”
On the battlefield, only his voice settled quietly as if it were echoing.
