The Wyrmrest Temple is filled with Dragons soaring and circling everywhere.
After the Red Dragons of Galakrond's Rest returned to defend, the guards of the Wyrmrest Temple also rushed out, attacking the Twilight Dragon from both inside and outside.
Red Dragons would occasionally fall from the sky, howling and screaming, shouting the queen's name, crashing to the ground like meteorites, their life cut short.
Krasus couldn't help but shake his head. The Red Dragons clearly had an overwhelming numerical advantage and were also highly experienced in combat; they should have won easily.
Unfortunately, after many days of hard work, he was emaciated and exhausted. Facing the newly born Twilight Dragon, the casualty ratio was a staggering one to one.
The Red Dragon Queen remained lying on the top floor of the Wyrmrest Temple, completely unconcerned about the battle before her, and wistfully thinking of Kelitu Telazi.
The traitor to the Dragonkin must be brought back.
But how to handle it is entirely up to the Queen; the Queen is the law of the Red Dragonflight.
"If he's willing to admit his mistake, perhaps we should forgive him this once." The Red Dragon Queen's heart softened, and she secretly made up her mind.
As for those loyal and brave members of her tribe, the Red Dragon Queen didn't even want to look at them. They were nothing but a bunch of incompetent and cowardly good-for-nothings who deserved to die.
What exactly happened at the Ruby Sanctum?
The Red Dragon Queen appeared to be resting with her eyes closed, but she never stopped communicating with the offspring of the Ruby Sanctum.
The doors to the Ruby Sanctum are closed. The Twilight Dragon destroyed the laboratory on the first floor, and most tragically, thousands of Chromatic Dragons were lost—years of hard work gone in an instant.
Red Dragon Queen becomes powerful enough to Pain Suppression the Chromatic Dragons, she will hatch these Chromatic Dragons and replace the Red Dragonflight.
"The cause must be found out," the Red Dragon Queen sternly ordered her offspring.
The Red Dragon Queen instinctively thought it must be an accident, probably because the seal had failed.
Inside the Ruby Sanctum, the Red Dragon Queen's offspring entered the room where the Twilight Dragon was sealed and discovered traces proving that it was sabotaged by human hands.
There's a traitor.
The Red Dragon Queen frowned. Who could it be? The Ruby Sanctum was heavily guarded; no outsiders were allowed to enter except for the Queen's most trusted heirs.
"Unless"
"Your Majesty, a discovery has been made," Baozhu reported.
One of the offspring found a scale in a corner; it was a scale from a Red Dragon, exceptionally sturdy.
"This is my scale!" The Red Dragon Queen immediately recognized the scale through the orb.
Dragonkin regularly shed their old scales and replace them with new ones, and every Dragon cherishes its own scales.
The Red Dragon Queen's scales are tokens for entering and leaving the Ruby Sanctum.
"It must be Kelitu Telazi, the one I once gave a scale to, you willful little boy."
The Red Dragon Queen suddenly realized why Kelitu Telazi had fled.
Thinking of his timid, weak, and pitiful appearance, the Red Dragon Queen's heart softened again. She thought to herself that her beloved might have been coerced, and it must be by those so-called friends he mentioned.
"I will protect you, little boy," the Red Dragon Queen made up her mind.
After the battle at the Wyrmrest Temple, Krasus returned to report, expressing his sorrow for the fallen members of his people and pleading for a few days of rest for those who had fought so hard.
Unexpectedly, the Queen's mind wasn't on that. When a child of the Ruby Sanctum sent over scales, Krasus was secretly surprised, wondering how Robbie had managed it.
"The Red Dragonflight is at a critical juncture of life and death; no one can afford to be complacent."
The Red Dragon Queen's voice was cold, like the chilling winds of Northrend.
"I have witnessed and remembered the bravery of my people in their battles. However, the Holy Light Magic Circle cannot be delayed. I must return to the Galakrond's Rest immediately so that I can quickly get to work."
Krasus dared not disobey and could only bow his head in agreement.
The Red Dragon Queen slowly raised her head, stared at Krasus for a long time in thought, and then handed him a thin scale.
"These are scales from Kelitu Telazi," the Queen said gently and tenderly. "Go and take our little boy home, and tell him I won't blame him."
Krasus felt a surge of jealousy, but he could only keep it buried deep inside, daring not to show it.
"Your Majesty, I will certainly complete the mission."
Duskwood, Darkshire.
Kelitu Telazi transforms into Blood Elf, a melancholic and innocent little boy with fair, delicate skin and a handsome, endearing appearance.
With his extravagant attire, he looked like a runaway nobleman.
Inside the inn, the maids openly flirted, while Kelitu Telazi nervously drank his wine, waiting for the Twilight Father.
Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing a black hooded robe entered the inn and sat down directly in front of Kelitu Telazi.
"Are you Twilight Father?" Kelitu Telazi asked in a low voice.
The man nodded, revealing a pair of piercing eyes beneath his hood.
"Young Red Dragon, what have you seen?"
Kelitu Telazi, bewildered, replied strangely, "Inn, maids, wine."
"Anything else?" Twilight Father's voice was icy, giving off a reptilian, damp, and sinister feeling.
"Adventurer, table, mouse in the kitchen, cat under the table."
"Haha!" Twilight Father looked at him like a venomous snake. "What you see is only the surface. The world is far from what you perceive. Come, see the truth of the world."
A pair of hands landed on Kelitu Telazi's shoulders, and a strange power surged into his body, instantly filling his eyes with Flames.
The surroundings dimmed instantly; the inn vanished, replaced by Demons's palace, filled with raging Fel Flames.
The beautiful maidservant transformed into Succubus wielding a whip, the plump innkeeper became a hideous Doom Mother, and the fine wine in her hand turned into a cup of Fel Essence.
The adventurers were all Dreadlords, and the table became Test Subject for dismembering creatures.
The rats in the kitchen turned into Felbat, and the cat under the table became Three-headed Felhound.
"Ahhh!" Kelitu Telazi couldn't help but scream.
"Idiot, look at the top of your head, that's what you should be paying attention to," Twilight Father reminded him.
Kelitu Telazi looked up and saw a colossal Dragon circling in the sky, its entire body enveloped in green Fel Flames. It was enormous and emitted a loud dragon roar.
But that face was familiar to him; it was his own.
"What is this?" Kelitu Telazi asked in horror.
"The Burning Legion's Demons Dragons —the perfect fusion of dragon and Demons power—were researched by your Dragonkin ten thousand years ago, but unfortunately, it failed, and all the experiments were destroyed. Your queen believes that Fel is incompatible with Dragonkin, and that Demons Dragons cannot succeed."
Twilight Father revealed half his face, and said with a wicked smile:
"But I succeeded. As long as the Titans Power within the Dragonkin is removed, you can perfectly fuse with Fel."
Twilight Father withdrew his hand from his shoulder, and everything returned to normal, though the maid's burning gaze occasionally drifted over.
Kelitu Telazi, breathing heavily and drenched in sweat, asked anxiously:
"Twilight Father, why did you let me see these things?"
"I'm conducting an experiment." Twilight Father pulled his hood up, concealing his face.
"A combination of Holy Dragon and Demons Dragon, half Holy Light and half Fel —are you interested?"
