Chapter 494 - 495: The Encounter of the Two Despicable Dragons
Lide couldn’t uncover any more secrets from the Black Dragon, and after several failed attempts to remove the Twelve Magic Scrolls from its head, he didn’t linger much longer.
He gave up on continuing the pointless conversation with the Black Dragon.
There was still a golden thigh in Dawn City; when he returned, he’d ask Kacharina if the half-mermaid beauty knew anything about the past of the Twelve Magic Scrolls.
The fact that they sealed the power of Hell and could turn someone who hadn’t even stepped into the Legendary realm into a level 32 Divine Monster made it an interest definitely worth his attention.
"Black Dragon, if you don’t want to be imprisoned by me for all eternity and displayed like a common beast by those races you consider lowly, then spit out your true intentions sooner rather than later!
As the envoy of the Lord of Nine Prisons, I shall not tolerate outsiders coveting the power of Hell!"
Though Lide didn’t get much out of the dragon, he still left with these righteous words before turning around and departing.
The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting, and words cost nothing; who knows if one day, one of these words might change the dragon’s mind.
The Black Dragon glared at Lide with hatred, completely ignoring him.
Long after Lide had left, the Black Dragon, still raging and cursing, suddenly stiffened. A red light flashed over the scrolls in its mind, and an image of a flame-shaped figure appeared in its amber dragon eyes.
The Black Dragon’s demeanor changed in an instant, and its previously weak body stood up. It turned its head alertly to scan its surroundings then shook its head after feeling around briefly.
It inexplicably uttered a segment of extremely malevolent Hell Profanity.
