Chapter 655: Chapter 348: Dual Deity Projections! (Part 2)
It doesn’t seem like she’s here to declare sovereignty?
But the Frost Giant Chief Begemir and Shaman Yogon were both familiar with Dragon Language.
Especially Shaman Yogon, as a special existence among the Frost Giants, he could definitely be called thoroughly proficient in Dragon Language.
So he realized at once that something must have gone wrong with the newly advanced Legendary White Dragon Avia Linsagos.
Since that was the case, he immediately turned to the Frost Giant Chief Begemir beside him and said:
"Chief, our chance has come."
"Hahaha, White Scale! Get down here for me!"
This made Frost Giant Chief Begemir burst into loud laughter, and he quickly took a sharply polished white bone Long Spear from a nearby Commander.
"Chiu!!"
With a violent throw, a white bone shadow instantly tore through the air, carrying a sharp screeching whistle as it struck the root of White Dragon Han Zhuo’s right wing dead-on.
Han Zhuo let out a miserable scream, and his flight path veered drastically, faintly showing signs of an impending crash.
"Quick! After him!"
Seeing this scene, the Frost Giant Commanders grew excited, calling out to their people as they charged in the direction where the White Dragon was slanting down.
....
Meanwhile, inside the White Dragon Nest.
The crowd and the massive body of Wing of the Icefield Avia reappeared in the spacious ice cavern, the only difference being that the once-proud Legendary White Dragon now had her eyes tightly shut and lay prone on the ground, not moving an inch.
"She really can’t take a beating at all!"
"It was over before I’d even warmed up."
The group of Dwarf Elders felt they had barely loosened their joints before the fight ended.
Once they were Teleported into the Gladiator Space, the battle naturally held no suspense.
Even the Elder Red Dragon Klaus, with a Challenge Level as high as Level 25, couldn’t withstand their group assault, let alone a White Dragon who had just advanced to Legendary, with a Challenge Level of only Level 21.
"Right, what do you think, could the hoard of a Legendary White Dragon be as rich as Dark Furnace City?"
"Forget it, Dinita, White Dragons are notoriously poor. And let me correct you on one point—Avia may be a Legendary White Dragon, but she only just advanced. So her treasury is only at the level of a seasoned adult White Dragon."
Elder Grenum spoke with a smiling squint, but his gaze was fixed on Raine.
Because he was very clear that the lion’s share of this haul belonged to Raine.
....
Far away, in Bator Hell, on the Avernus Layer.
Inside the Mother of Five-Colored Dragons’ lair.
Suddenly!
Tiamat opened the White Dragon eye in the central head, a look of puzzlement on her face.
"A little one who just advanced to Legendary has died?"
When White Dragon Avia Linsagos advanced to Legendary, she had of course devoutly offered a pious prayer to the Mother of Five-Colored Dragons, Tiamat.
For an ordinary White Dragon, even if it prayed, Tiamat couldn’t be bothered to pay attention, but the devout prayer of a White Dragon at Legendary Level was still worth investing a trace of attention to briefly take note of.
"Looks like the Valzeg Continent has been a bit turbulent lately."
But the death of a single White Dragon wasn’t enough to make Tiamat intend to descend a body.
It was just that, having awoken from a nap, she naturally thought of the task she had previously assigned to the Elder Red Dragon Klaus—"Investigate the Iron Hills and see if there is a Dragon Lich or a High-tier Mage conducting Dragon Vein experiments."
"Hm? Klaus, that little fellow’s aura has vanished??"
With a sudden Perception, the other four dragon heads of Tiamat abruptly opened their eyes, and she snapped fully awake.
It wasn’t that Klaus held such importance in her heart.
Rather, the information implied here finally made Tiamat take things seriously.
An Elder Red Dragon, in a Valzeg Continent whose highest Power tier was only Legendary Peak, was absolutely not an existence to be underestimated.
Yet the other party had been slain without her sensing any prayer or cry for help.
"Just disappeared without a sound like that?"
After pondering for a moment, Tiamat condensed a trace of Divine Power incarnation, opened a spatial passage in an instant, and projected it onto the Valzeg Continent.
....
At the same time.
In the Lankote Snowfield White Dragon Nest, Raine and his group, who were just about to Teleport the Legendary White Dragon’s corpse and the treasure back in batches, suddenly felt the sky dim slightly; immediately after, a certain tension welling up from the depths of their hearts arose spontaneously.
Raine snapped his head up, his pupils shrinking sharply.
He saw a pillar of light appear in the sky, within which the vague image was clearly a colossal being with five-colored dragon heads.
Apparently having Perceived that there were humans below, the phantom instantly shifted, and a beautiful lady holding a Magic Staff tipped with a Red Dragon head appeared at the mouth of the ice cavern, manifesting before everyone.
The endless pressure and almost tangible aura made everyone’s expressions change at once; there was no way they didn’t know that the one before them was none other than Tiamat, the Mother of Five-Colored Dragons!
’Damn! We kill one White Dragon and the Mother of Dragons actually descends a projection?’ Elder Grenum’s heart pounded!
’Even if it’s a Legendary White Dragon, for it to trigger Tiamat to send down a projection, just how devout was this White Dragon Avia Linsagos?’ Elder Dinita was likewise inwardly ill at ease!
Thump-thump-thump—Raine’s heart was hammering madly now, his hands tightening again and again around his Warhammer.
Raine knew all too well what he had done; from the day the Elder Red Dragon Klaus came knocking, he had already imagined this very scene.
He just hadn’t expected this day to arrive so quickly.
Was he really going to face a projection of a Divine Being head-on?
There was no way Raine wasn’t nervous.
But why hadn’t Tiamat appeared when the Elder Red Dragon Klaus was killed, and instead showed up upon the death of a White Dragon who shouldn’t have warranted such importance?
Suddenly, another question occurred to Raine.
"Hm? Followers of Elisabeth and followers of Moradin?"
Before Raine could figure it out, the Red Dragon Staff lady who was Tiamat’s projection swept her stern gaze around once, then focused again on the Drow Elf and the Dwarves.
After all, a female Drow Elf plus a group of Surface Dwarf Elders—such a combination was something not seen once in a thousand years.
Because the Golden Finger did not cause Multi-colored Giant Dragon Bloodline to literally flow in Raine’s body, even though he was standing not far away at this moment, Tiamat, without deliberately focusing, did not Perceive anything.
And from the moment Tiamat appeared, the quickest to react on-site was still Ilgerina.
She had already yanked the necklace from her neck with a sharp pull, clenched it tight in her hand, and her lips moved rapidly.
Just then.
Raine and the others again saw a majestic pillar of light shoot into the ice cavern and fall before Ilgerina.
Tiamat merely let out a soft "Oh?", her gaze sliding past Ilgerina to the phantom that had just descended in front of her—
It was the phantom of a Drow Elf maiden holding a Curved Sword, her long white hair like a white ribbon trailing all the way down to her feet.
"Yo, and here I was wondering who it was—turns out it’s the Little Princess Moonlight. She’s your devout believer?" Tiamat glanced at Elisabeth’s projection and mocked carelessly.
Though they were both Divine Beings, their strength differed like heaven and earth.
Elisabeth was Rose’s daughter, a Weak Divine Power, still far removed from Tiamat’s tier.
"Mother of Five-Colored Dragons, the Valzeg Continent has its own rules of operation; you shouldn’t interfere at will."
"My affairs aren’t something even Rose dares meddle with, you..."
Just then.
Suddenly, both Divine Beings turned their heads to look in the same direction.
"Seems something interesting has happened. I didn’t expect that just as we mentioned Rose, she would show up too."
In a flash, the Red Dragon Staff lady who was Tiamat’s avatar vanished from where she stood.
Right after, the Dark Maiden Elisabeth gave Ilgerina a slight nod, then disappeared as well.
The departure of the two Divine Beings’ projections instantly relaxed the atmosphere on-site; it felt as if they had been holding their breath underwater and could now finally surface and gulp down fresh air.
"Scared me half to death! I thought I was going to die here today."
The female Dwarf Elder Wenna Fire Wine spoke as she quickly pulled a steel flask from her belt and took a long swig.
"Mr. Rein, dragon-slaying with you is indeed a thrill, but in these few days I’ve experienced more than in the past few hundred years. This is the first time I’ve ever run into a case of the Mother of Five-Colored Dragons’ projection descending."
"Yeah!"
Raine, however, was looking in the direction the two Divine Beings had just turned their heads toward, deep in thought.
That direction? It seems to be....
