Oath of Raging Waves Shatter.
After being penetrated by Red Emperor's iron wings, the storm lost its restraint and was returning to its original frenzy.
As a result, the storm became more violent than before, and the waves no longer undulated, but turned into moving mountains, rolling in from the end of the horizon, hitting the rocks, and splashing water tens of meters high.
The dark clouds hung low, almost reaching the sea.
However.
The tense atmosphere was like a bow string stretched to the extreme, but at some point, it quietly relaxed.
Gold Dragon Fenoris felt this change.
The pair of iron-like dragon claws on his neck did not tighten any further.
Red Emperor's claw fingers fit against his scales.
Hard, sharp, and dangerous.
He knew that as long as the other party pinched it gently, the golden dragon scales he was proud of would be pierced like paper, his spine would be broken, and his head would be twisted off.
But the paw didn't move.
Fenoris raised his head with difficulty and looked at the pair of dragon eyes reflecting lightning.
At this time, many images flashed through Gold Dragon's mind.
He remembered what Bronze Dragon King Sheffield said to himself before leaving Raging Tide Dragon Realm and going to Abyss.
"Fenoris, you are Raging Tide Dragon Realm's most outstanding warrior. After I leave, Raging Tide Dragon Realm will be left to you."
Bronze Dragon King said to him, "Keep Raging Tide, keep Oath of Raging Waves. When I return as Immortal Body, we will eliminate the entire Bernardo. By that time, the world will usher in unprecedented peace and justice."
Fenoris lowered his head and solemnly accepted this request.
Gold Dragon not only thinks of Bronze Dragon King's entrustment, but also thinks of everything he has paid for the Dragon Realm over the years.
But now, Red Emperor is standing in front of him.
A question he didn't want to face pierced into his mind like a thorn.
Is the justice he upholds really justice itself?
Or is he just firmly believing in a wrong path and has gone very far unknowingly?
Gold Dragon's eyes began to waver.
He doesn't want to admit this.
As one of the leaders of the Raging Tide Dragon Realm, his belief should be rock-solid, but at this moment, under the gaze of Red Emperor's calm dragon eyes, cracks began to appear in his rock.
Before, Red Emperor's voice was not high-pitched.
Not hurried or slow, it can even be said to be very calm.
But when Gold Dragon heard it, he had a deafening feeling, as if every word struck his heart and his soul trembled slightly.
"You----"
Gold Dragon's voice was hoarse and dry as he said, "Red Emperor, you led Aura Dragon to the Raging Waves Sea and penetrated Oath of Raging Waves----what exactly do you want to do?"
"Is it a crusade? Is it a conquest? Or are you going to turn us all into your slaves?"
Being shaken does not mean that you completely deny yourself.
Gold Dragon was indeed shaken in his heart, but he still remained vigilant and wary of the giant dragon in front of him.
Garos lowered his eyes and looked at him.
The dragon's claws slowly released, and the iron-like knuckles spread out one by one, releasing Gold Dragon from the clamp.
"Neither."
Red Iron Dragon's voice was low, his eyes stared at Gold Dragon, and he said, "As I said before, I am here to let you feel the glory of Sacred Aura."
Gold Dragon Fenoris is free.
He took a few steps back, distanced himself a bit, raised his dragon claws and rubbed his neck.
And under Red Emperor's gaze, Bronze Dragon King's instructions continued to echo in his heart, like a bell, ringing over and over again.
Gold Dragon's vigilance has not dissipated.
"If you want Raging Tide Dragon to work for you, if you want us to lower our heads, offer our loyalty to you, and kneel to your empire----"
"With just these few words, just with these empty words, it is absolutely impossible."
He straightened his body and spread his dragon wings slightly.
"You can defeat us, you can kill us."
Gold Dragon's voice gradually became louder and said, "However, you can't use a few words to make us betray everything we stand for. If you think you can make us surrender in this way, then you underestimate us."
At the same time.
Dragons of Auras have all passed through the water curtain of Shatter and landed on the major islands of the Raging Tide Dragon Realm, each occupying a favorable position.
Opposite them are the Legendary Realm Metal Dragon who were originally located on each of the major islands.
These giant dragons were already alert at the moment Oath of Raging Waves Shatter, holding on to their injuries and soared into the air. After the initial shock and shake, they were now glaring at Dragons of Aura, with angry flames burning in their dragon pupils.
But they did not attack immediately.
Dragons of Aura did not show off their power, but stood there with the calmness of a winner.
Neither arrogant nor impetuous, neither humble nor arrogant.
In comparison, Raging Tide Dragon is much more embarrassed.
Their scales more or less bear the scars of Oath of Raging Waves's backlash.
Their emotions are also completely different.
Some were angry, with their scales exploding; some were afraid, and did not dare to look at Red Emperor at all; some were silent, with their own lights flickering, thinking about something in their hearts.
Garos Look around.
He took everything in sight, then stretched his wings, and slowly raised his whole body into the air, so that all the giant dragons could see his posture more clearly.
"This battle is not for conquest."
"Not to plunder, not to slaughter, not to trample you under my feet.
97
Red Emperor's gaze swept over every dragon's face, inch by inch.
The giant dragons that he glanced at, whether it was Dragons of Aura or Raging Tide Dragon, couldn't help but become quiet.
His voice continued to sound, word for word. "This battle is just to tell the whole world that Sacred Aura belongs to the kingdom of dragons."
Under normal circumstances, dragons are always arrogant.
This is true for Chromatic Dragon, and even more so for Metal Dragon.
Especially Metal Dragon, they always feel that they are nobler than Chromatic Dragon, more civilized than Chromatic Dragon, and closer to what Dragon Race should be than Chromatic Dragon.
Wrong?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Even if they know they are wrong, the dragons will never admit it.
Metal Dragon who stand on the opposite side of Aura should instinctively reject Red Emperor.
They should be unable to listen to any of his words, stubborn in their own opinions, and regard all the other party's remarks as lies that deceive people's hearts.
This is the consistent style of the Raging Tide Dragon Realm and Purification Faction dragons.
However.
Red Emperor seems to have a special charm.
He is like the scorching sun, a gentle yet majestic sun in spring.
When his light shines on Raging Tide Dragon, Raging Tide Dragon can't help but let go of the rejection and guard in their hearts.
They began to think rationally about the meaning of his words, and even began to reflect.
Are you really wrong?
Should I look for the problem within myself?
This kind of reflection is almost unbelievable for the Purification Faction dragon.
But now, it just happened.
"It doesn't matter Chromatic Dragon or Metal Dragon, it doesn't matter Gem Dragon or Ferrous Dragon, it doesn't matter their skin color, it doesn't matter their origin."
Red Emperor's voice continued to sound, "Under the banner of Sacred Aura, all dragons who are willing to recast the glory of Dragon Race have a place."
Every word fell heavily on the hearts of Metal Dragons, shattering their stubbornness and psychological defenses.
Garos's face was like cast iron, and he could not see any ups and downs of emotions. He said calmly, "From now on, Sacred Aura will take over Raging Tide Dragon Realm."
"As for you...
He lowered his eyes and looked at the Raging Tide Dragons whose beliefs had begun to waver.
"Although you are stupid and stubborn and cannot see what the real future of Dragon Race is, I am still willing to give you a chance."
He paused and continued, "You can choose to stay at the Raging Tide Dragon Realm."
"Raging Waves Sea is still your home."
"Every island, every rock, every wave here will not be taken away."
"As long as you recognize your problems and are willing to get back on the right track with Dragon Race, Sacred Aura is willing to accept you. At that time, you will enjoy the same rights and dignity as other Dragons of Aura."
Then he gave a second option.
"You can also choose to leave."
"Leave Raging Waves Sea and continue to enforce your so-called justice elsewhere. Do not become enemies of Sacred Aura, and do not invade Aura's territory and people."
"At that time, Aura will not pursue all your previous offenses and provocations."
Finally, he said, "Choose. You have three minutes."
After saying that, Red Iron Dragon stopped talking, and his face mask covered all his expressions.
The strong wind blew through the scales of each giant dragon, making a whining sound, and lightning traveled in the sky, reflecting the sky and the earth in flickering light.
Metal Dragon They either bowed their heads in deep thought or looked at each other, their hearts filled with intense struggles and contradictions.
Most Metal Dragon couldn't help but look at Gold Dragon Fenoris.
When they can't make up their mind, they will be more inclined to accept the choices of other respected people.
As for Fenoris, as the most trusted subordinate of Bronze Dragon King and one of the most prestigious dragons of the Raging Tide Dragon Realm, his choice will directly affect the decisions of many dragons.
At the same time, Gold Dragon Fenoris landed on a cliff.
He was also anxious in his heart, and the dragon's claws scratched on the rocks unconsciously, leaving deep ravines, one after another, crisscrossing the rocks.
When he felt the eyes of many of his own race looking at him, the burden in his heart became heavier.
Stay?
Or leave?
Red Emperor's words kept echoing in his mind, forcing him to rethink many issues that he had never thought about before.
Phew!
A gust of wind sounded.
Silver Dragon Archer folded its wings and landed beside Gold Dragon.
She saw Gold Dragon's struggle.
Because she herself is also struggling.
Red Emperor's voice was even more deafening to her, and her expression kept changing. Eventually, everything slowly calmed down, and her eyes became firm.
"Fenoris."
Silver Dragon whispered and read the name Gold Dragon.
Gold Dragon slowly turned around and looked at Silver Dragon Archer.
Archer didn't say much. She just nodded slightly to Gold Dragon with a simple and slight movement.
Both are Crown Dragon, and they have known each other for thousands of years. They are familiar enough with each other that they can understand each other's choices with just a simple look without the need for words.
Gold Dragon was slightly startled at first, and then felt relieved.
He turned around, faced Red Emperor, and bowed his head deeply.
"Mighty Red Emperor, I once thought you were an evil tyrant, but when you appeared here, I realized that maybe I was wrong."
"I still can't completely trust Sacred Aura.
1
"But I feel that under your brilliance, Dragon Race may move towards a more glorious future. I am willing to stay to prove that my intuition is right."
He bowed his head and made his choice.
The emperor could kill them, but he still gave them a choice, and the conditions were quite loose. Therefore, Gold Dragon decided to stay and see for the time being. If what Sacred Aura did was not to his liking, it would not be too late to leave at that time.
However, this goes against his original beliefs.
In this regard----
Sheffield Your Majesty, I'm sorry.
However, this Red Emperor Pale Star is by no means an evil dragon. He is Dragon Emperor, who is difficult to give birth to even in tens of thousands of years. With the great ideal of making Dragon Race glorious again, Gold Dragon thought silently in his heart and no longer wavered.
It was as if a heavy stone had been lifted from his body and he became much more relaxed.
The choice of Fenoris is a start.
After Gold Dragon set an example, Silver Dragon Archer also stepped forward and bowed his head. "Your Majesty, I am willing to stay with the Raging Tide Dragon Realm and strive for Sacred Aura's acceptance."
After the two, more and more Metal Dragon made the same choice.
One after another, some were straightforward, some hesitated and finally stepped forward, and some lowered their heads under the gaze of their companions.
Eventually.
The vast majority of Raging Tide Dragon chose to stay. After all, staying now does not mean that they completely trust Aura. They can still leave if they are not satisfied, but as long as they choose to stay, it means that their hearts have been shaken.
Some dragons also chose to leave.
However, even after leaving, there was very little hatred or resentment in the eyes of these dragons.
They simply did not want to accept the control of an unfamiliar empire.
They still don't like Evil Dragon.
But for Red Emperor----
Even if they don't want to crowd around Dragon Emperor, who fights for Dragon Race and is willing to let his light shine on all Dragon Race, they shouldn't be too hostile.
These few Metal Dragon left silently.
Their figures were gradually engulfed by the storm and disappeared at the end of the Raging Waves Sea gray skyline.
No one chased or retained them.
The Raging Tide Dragon who stayed behind watched in silence as their figures disappeared between the sea and the sky.
After that, Sanctum hanging high in space lit up.
More and more Dragons of Aura come out of the light pillar and will be responsible for taking over Raging Tide Dragon Realm.
Garos has never been interested in this kind of aftermath work.
He stood on a towering sea cliff, facing the turbulent Raging Waves Domain, and behind him was Raging Tide Dragon Realm who had been shrouded in his light.
"Once upon a time, I could not avoid Ocean because of the existence of the Raging Tide Dragon Realm."
Garos thought to himself.
Before he grew up, this Purification Faction dragon's base camp had always been a thorn in his heart, making him feel deeply uneasy and staying away from the sea.
Now, Raging Tide Dragon Realm is his.
At this time, Chromium Dragon flew over.
He landed on the sea cliff, folded his wings, and walked to Garos's side.
"Your Majesty, these Metal Dragon are too bullying and afraid of the strong."
"As early as Orotara, I have heard about the reputation of the Raging Tide Dragon Realm and Purification Faction. The extremists in Metal Dragon are more stubborn than the others and would rather die than surrender."
He licked his fangs and showed a dissatisfied expression.
"But what's the result? Their performance is completely unworthy of the rumored reputation. They don't even have a decent resistance. What's this? They're not as strong as the Elf bones I chewed on in Orotara."
To be honest, he was really disappointed.
He even hoped that these Metal Dragon would rather die than surrender, and looked forward to them using the most intense resistance to prove their backbone, and looking forward to them fighting to the end in the most extreme way.
Then, he can legitimately torture them and make them completely submit in pain.
That's Chromium Dragon's favorite part.
The current situation made him feel boring.
.. Even a crazy dragon like you can learn to control himself under my command, let alone a group of Metal Dragon who can't figure out what they want?
Garos turned around and glanced at Chromium Dragon.
Compared with Chromium Dragon when he was crazy, these Metal Dragon are extremely normal dragons.
"The dragon always mocks those weak biological races, saying that they like to follow the herd blindly, have no independent opinions, and will only follow others when encountering problems."
"However, most dragons are not fundamentally different from other races in this regard."
"They just don't want to admit it."
Storms were rolling on the skyline, there was almost no boundary between the dark clouds and the sea water, the entire sky was gray and black, and the whole world seemed to be swallowed up by darkness.
Red Iron Dragon turned to look at Claude, and the voice continued to sound, "Few of the Purification Faction dragons here are truly extreme to the core."
"Most of them just admire Bronze Dragon King and have chosen a similar path under the influence of Bronze Dragon King;
Or maybe they just want to stand out in a different way to make themselves special among the same race."
"And when the moment of real choice comes, all illusions are shattered."
"They find that they are not as determined as they thought, nor are they ready to sacrifice everything for so-called justice. Then, they can only make the most realistic choice."
The above is just one aspect.
Garos knows very well that the more important aspect is because of himself.
Charm is not just for attracting the opposite sex.
Power, authority, conversation, posture, reputation, magnanimity, past... all these elements together create an attribute called charm.
Charm cannot be measured in terms of levels, nor does it have a specific numerical value.
But it really exists, and in many cases is more important than power itself.
It can transform fear into awe, hostility into surrender, and make opponents who are supposed to resist desperately put down their claws and lower their heads willingly.
The charm of Garos is so high that it is condensed into characteristics.
Because of this, those Raging Tide Dragon will feel the irresistible charm in him that makes dragons want to follow him, and then let go of their stubbornness.
"What if it's Bronze Dragon King?"
Claude flicked his tail and asked curiously, "If it were Bronze Dragon King standing here today, would he change his mind?"
Garos did not answer.
He calmly withdrew his gaze and looked back at the rolling waves in front of the sea cliff.
The Raging Tide Dragon Realm incident has gradually come to an end.
Soon after, the place was completely taken over by Sacred Aura. Under the dispatch of Dragons of Aura, the order of the Raging Tide Dragon Realm was gradually restored.
And in the secret, many people are looking forward to the internal battle of Dragon Race.
They hope to see Metal Dragon and Aura Empire kill each other, leaving Dragon Race to consume strength in internal conflicts.
However, these people failed to do so.
The other four Dragon Realm did not carry out any crusade against this, not even censure.
On the contrary, Radiant Dragon Realm and Wave-Subduing Dragon Realm even publicly expressed their support for Sacred Aura. They believed that Sacred Aura brought the lost Metal Dragon back to the right path, which is something worthy of recognition.
As for the Raging Tide Dragon Realm.
The dragons who chose to stay were full of admiration for Red Emperor itself.
In fact, the influence of some past thoughts still remains in their hearts, and it will not disappear completely just because of a battle. It will take time to eliminate it.
Only after time has passed and been tested can they truly be accepted and recognized by Sacred Aura.
However, this won't take too long.
Dragons of Aura pursues Victory and Glory, not evil and destruction.
In their hearts, they longed to recreate the glorious era of Dragon Race under the leadership of the emperor. To this end, Dragons of Aura could put in more blood, sweat and efforts than other dragons could imagine.
After close contact, more and more Metal Dragon realized this.
They began to understand that even Chromatic Dragon could have firm beliefs and lofty ideals, and was not as evil and chaotic as they imagined.
Raging Tide Dragon Realm, is gradually becoming Aura.
While Raging Tide Dragon Realm was gradually taken over by Sacred Aura.
Bottomless Abyss.
Some unknown level.
Rot's silt is accumulated on the ground that has been deposited for an unknown number of years. It exudes a disgusting smell and no living thing is willing to come near this place.
And under the thick mud.
A pair of pale blue eyes slowly opened.
Even in the Rot filthy Abyss mud, they still shine brightly without any wavering or confusion.
Bronze Dragon King, Sheffield.
He is not dead.
In the battle with Demon King, he was severely injured by Demon King, and his body was almost torn apart.
At the last moment, Shatter's Space Rift involved him and threw him into this unknown Abyss level.
At the beginning, Bronze Dragon King narrowly escaped death. He encountered many dangers. Some of them he managed to cope with with his remaining strength, while others could only be avoided.
But as time passed, his injuries gradually improved.
The nearly fatal wound began to heal, Shatter's scales grew again, and the lost strength slowly recovered.
Moreover, his life strength not only did not decrease due to injury, but continued to advance rapidly, sprinting towards a level above Destiny Rank.
The worse the environment, the more determined Bronze Dragon King's will is.
As long as he has not truly died, his faith can allow him to persevere in any environment and become stronger.
"It's just the last step."
"Soon, I will return to Bernardo as Immortal Body. At that time, I will lead my Raging Tide Dragon Realm people to correct the chaos and eliminate all evil."
Bronze Dragon King thought in his heart, and then closed his eyes.
He lay silent under the mud like a dead thing, but the breath of life under his scales became more intense, attacking Immortal Realm again and again.
