Chapter 316
Sure enough, ripples spread out from the center of the water, pushing the petals to the edge of the bathtub.
"What's going on...?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a loud bang was heard outside the Red Dragon Sanctuary.
The water in the bathtub was also shaken and rippled.
The next second, Leon rushed into the bathroom, speaking rapidly, "Are you alright?"
"It's nothing. What happened outside?"
Leon shook his head. "I don't know. I'll go see my daughters first."
"Good."
The couple quickly went to Noa's room.
The Dragon girl were also awakened by the sudden loud noise.
Noa held Mu En in her arms, and Leon bent down to pick up Xiao Guang.
"What happened, Daddy?" Noa asked.
"I don't know. But it probably won't be anything good."
He walked to the window and looked outside.
Just outside the Holy Temple, a dazzling flame rose from the ground.
Amidst the firelight, a colossal figure slowly emerged.
The crimson light reflected in Leon's pupils, and he saw the figure's face—or rather, its head.
"Constantine..."
The peaceful night was shattered by flames and chaos.
The Red Dragon Clan's guards immediately rushed to intercept the suddenly appearing enemy.
"Is that... the Dragon King? Or... something else?" A guard stared at the enormous creature before him.
The reason for asking this question is that the 'creature' that raided the Red Dragon Sanctuary at night was simply too bizarre.
It exhibits many characteristics of S-class and even S-class dangerous species—
Steel Rock Mammoth, Scaled Battle Rhino, Lava Triceratops, and so on.
These are just the more obvious features that can be seen; as for other parts of the body, some are so complex that they are indistinguishable.
However, the creature's head was easy to identify, which was also why the red dragon guard immediately mistook it for the "Dragon King".
That was... a dragon's head.
The massive, dark red head looked as if it had been glued to the "stitched" body.
Those ferocious and terrifying dragon eyes looked down at the life beneath their feet, and with each step they took, the flames spread further.
"It's... it's the head of the Crimson Flame Dragon King!"
Another red dragon guard recognized whose head it was.
"The Crimson Flame Dragon King? But wasn't he already exposed by Prince Leon? How could this be—"
Boom!--
Before the guards could even gasp in surprise, the 'reborn' Constantine launched his attack.
The massive body of the Steel Rock Mammoth could cause the earth to tremble with just a stomp of its foot.
The guards also spread their dragon wings, intending to respond from the air.
They had just observed that this stitched monster, while possessing many of the biological characteristics of dangerous species, had none of them.
This means it cannot fly.
Therefore, attacking from the air is the best option.
The red dragon guards simultaneously unleashed dragonfire upon Constantine.
Several fireballs struck its body, but caused no damage whatsoever.
"The body of Steel Rock Mammoth... its defensive capabilities are indeed ridiculously high." Cold sweat beaded on the guard's forehead.
S-class dangerous species: Steel Rock Mammoth.
That is a dangerous species that even Dragon Race dare not hunt easily.
Its defensive capabilities are even comparable to those of the Dragon King.
Even without taking a defensive stance, Constantine was completely unaffected by the guards' attack.
It continued toward the Red Dragon Sanctuary.
It seems that's where it's headed for tonight.
The guards continued their attack to stop Constantine's advance.
However, it still didn't have much effect.
More and more guards gathered around, and the flames of the dragon's fire illuminated the night sky.
But it did nothing to stop Constantine.
Meanwhile, on a distant mountaintop, Scott and a Dragon Race stood silently watching the scene unfold.
"I thought Mr. Nacho would be overseeing the battle again this time," the Dragon Race said.
"He's not coming, Fael."
Scott's tone betrayed his smugness. "He won't be coming again."
Ironwing Dragon King Fael, a "hero" who stole a portion of Noah's power at the end of the exploration project in the Far North.
Now that Ravi and other dragon kings have died in battle, he has no choice but to step forward and begin making contact with the people of the Empire.
In Fael's memory, that guy named Nacho Salaman was quite interesting—
Because Fael often heard Ravi complain about him.
However, now, the person who complained has been silenced, and the person who was complained about can no longer be seen.
Ah, things have changed, people are no longer the same, Fael thought with a touch of melancholy.
"Mr. Ailandi seems to have a lot of confidence in the reborn Constantine, as he only sent me, a Dragon King, to assist in the battle," Fael said.
"Of course, after all, this is the ultimate life form that the Empire put a lot of effort into creating."
Scott narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the monster that seemed poised to burn everything in its path. "It's also the ultimate weapon specifically designed to hunt down Leon Casmod."
"It certainly takes a lot of effort to integrate the abilities and characteristics of so many dangerous species."
"I just have one thing I'm very worried about," Fael said.
Scott glanced at him sideways. "What?"
"Will Constantine, reborn, truly obey the Empire completely? Has Constantine lost all his independent will?"
Upon hearing this, Scott snorted coldly, "Of course. What independent will can a dead dragon have? Don't worry about it, Fael, our Imperial Royal Sorcerer Group are very professional."
"Really? Then I'm relieved."
Fael said,
"After all, if Constantine's mad dragon could freely control this powerful body... hehe, I'm afraid it wouldn't just be Leon Casmod who gets hunted down; he could even kill most of the living things on the Samael Continent."
Although Constantine was the first dragon king to be singled out by Leon Casmod in the Empire and the Dragon Race's 'plan', no one would question his brutality and ruthlessness.
He is the most typical Dragon Race, embodying all the characteristics of this race.
Now that he has returned from hell, he is even more befitting of his former temperament.
"It's a fight to the death... Constantine."
As he spoke softly, Fael continued to gaze at the distant battlefield.
Outside the Holy Temple, the battle was completely one-sided.
None of the guards' attacks could harm Constantine, who possessed the body of Steel Rock Mammoth.
"What should we do... this guy is really terrifying."
"Our attacks can't hurt it at all, what should we do...?"
"..."
Just as the guards were losing hope, they heard a strong female voice behind them.
"Everyone, back off."
The guards turned to look.
Ischa and two other Prince are walking this way.
"Is His Your Majesty finally going to make a move...? It seems that this opponent is indeed beyond our capabilities."
The guards parted to make way, and once Leon and his companions reached the center of the Holy Temple's front courtyard, a guard stepped forward to report.
"Your Majesty, after a brief exchange, we were unable to confirm the race or type of the enemy, but we can confirm that its head... belongs to the Crimson Flame Dragon King Constantine."
Ischa's expression was serious. "Yes, I understand. Take the nearby tribespeople to the underground shelter first, and arrange more people to protect the three Princess. There must be no mishaps."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The guards evacuated in an orderly manner, guiding the other members of the tribe to seek refuge.
In the vast courtyard, only Leon and his two companions remained, along with the fused monster burning with the flames of vengeance.
"I swear I will never tell Constantine's hellish jokes again."
Leon stared at the behemoth before him. "He really can win the revival match."
"Resurrection... there are many ways to do it, the question is how he managed to approach the Red Dragon Sanctuary so quietly?"
"Such a massive body, even a single step it takes would cause a slight tremor," said Losweiser. "yet it suddenly appeared outside the Holy Temple. And judging from its body structure, it can't fly. It's almost as if... it appeared out of thin air."
"Well, maybe it crawled right out of the graveyard, that's why it didn't make a sound—"
"Roar!!--"
"Okay, okay, I really won't tell your hellish jokes again, don't worry, don't worry."
Losweiser spread her dragon wings, assuming an offensive stance.
"Get serious, Leon."
"Good."
Leon stepped forward, opened his right hand, and a blue light suddenly shone.
The next second, the burst of chirping Thousand Birds echoed through the night sky.
The battle horn has sounded.
The tall, ferocious monster seemed to have some memories awakened by the sound of the Thousand Birds in Leon's hand.
The invasion was initially as leisurely as a stroll, but when a sharp explosion rang out, Constantine suddenly sprang up, his heavy Steel Rock Mammoth body like a giant cannonball, heading straight for Leon and his companions.
Flames burned everything in his path, and the withered, half-rotten dragon head let out a chilling roar.
Ischa stepped slightly forward, her brow furrowed, staring at the courtyard that Constantine had destroyed in the blink of an eye, and said through gritted teeth,
"Do you know how much those flower beds and lawns cost me, you bastard!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the Red Dragon Queen instantly transformed into Dragon form and charged towards Constantine.
The two enormous creatures collided, their roars echoing through the heavens.
Red Dragon Clan are much stronger than silver dragons in both offense and defense, which allows them to unleash this most primitive and savage dragon charge.
However, the results of hedging seem to be unsatisfactory.
Ischa retreated repeatedly, and after transforming back into human form, she gathered dragon flames in her hands and flung them out one after the other.
The dragon flame attack of Dragon King level being is several times stronger than that of the guards from before.
