The biting cold wind whizzed past mixed with snowflakes. On the snow-covered cliff, the space suddenly sank. After a period of distortion, a bright yellow portal appeared out of thin air.
Rhodes' figure walked out of the bright yellow portal, and a giant blue dragon appeared with him, exuding a shocking aura.
"I would like to ask, why did you turn into a human form before? Don't you think from the bottom of your heart that humans are inferior to dragons?" Looking at the blue holy dragon beside him, Rhodes asked with some doubts.
The dark yellow dragon eyes glanced at Rhodes, and the holy dragon let out a low roar.
"Do you even need to ask? It must be because of the momentum."
The person who answered Rhodes' words was the purple-robed skeleton walking out of the bright yellow portal.
"The Holy Dragon is the leader of all dragons. The aura it exudes is enough to make other dragons fearful. If Yosiah showed his true form, I am afraid that the dragons in the Green Crown would have been destroyed by her. How can you still fight if you lose your momentum?"
Recalling the fear of those giant dragons towards Jusia, Rhodes touched his pale skull: "What about you? I don't think you are affected by the aura of the Holy Dragon at all."
"That's because I have long been used to it. In the Dragon Kingdom where I once lived, there was the Holy Dragon King." The purple-robed skeleton glanced at the Holy Dragon beside him.
Rhodes snorted coldly: "It seems that you have completely recovered from the previous injury, Inota. You are worthy of the body of a dragon. If an ordinary creature is injured like this, it will have to rest for a long time."
Inota's skull shook: "Thanks to the top healing magic Rowling cast on me. Unlike you, you are not even proficient in this kind of magic!"
Rhodes coughed dryly, as if he was not used to the cold climate on the snow-capped mountains, but with his skeleton body at this time, he should not be able to feel any temperature.
Just when Rhodes was about to say something, the holy dragon in front suddenly turned around and let out a warning low roar.
"Be quiet. I can feel an unusual aura filling Chanzel."
Rhodes, who had already equipped himself with the Traveler's Sash, could understand the meaning of Jusia's roar.
Perception, the concentration of magic elements around him was abnormally disordered. It was clearly snowing heavily, but the concentration of fire magic elements was overwhelmingly higher than that of water magic elements.
After discovering this, Rhodes' expression suddenly changed: "Lord of Ice Prison, we may be late."
"Come up quickly, I want to go to the sky to find out." Yosia said in a cold tone.
Without any unnecessary words, Rhodes and Inota quickly climbed onto the huge body of the Holy Dragon.
Yosiah spread out the broad dragon wings, and with a burst of strong airflow, the blue dragon rose into the sky and arrived in the sky in the blink of an eye.
"Here..." Inota exclaimed.
Rhodes looked at the scene below in silence. Countless deep pits were spread all over the frosty peak, and the same was true further away. The falling snowflakes could not fill them up. The Dragon Kingdom, which originally had huge buildings, had been burned to the ground, forming ruins together with the rubble.
What Rhodes was more concerned about than the changes in the building was that he could no longer see any living dragons below.
"What happened? How could Shanzel become like this?" A dull roar came from the holy dragon's mouth, and Rhodes could feel the anger in Jusia's heart.
"He has already been here, the dragon-slaying hero..." Rhodes sighed, "After receiving the prophet's revelation, and after my mana recovered a little, we immediately set off and rushed here. Unexpectedly, it was still a step too late."
"How could this happen..." Inota said in a low tone, feeling lonely as she spoke, "Those giant dragons, they...did they all die in the hands of a hero?"
"This is really not necessarily true." Rhodes looked thoughtful, "The dragon-slaying hero has always been only interested in giant dragons with pure blood, and never paid attention to the sub-dragon species with incomplete blood. In other words, Ice The sub-dragon species imprisoned in the prison are likely to survive."
Hearing what Rhodes said, Yosia seemed to have found some hope. She flapped her wings and flew towards one of the cliffs.
Traces of meteorite bombardment always exist on the surface of the snow-capped mountains, and the top of the cliff where the ice prison is located has been almost completely flattened.
Arriving at the familiar periphery of the Ice Prison, the entrance was blocked by a large amount of rubble, making it difficult to enter for a while, but Rhodes was shocked and sensed that there was the presence of living things in the Ice Prison.
Looking at the rubble blocking the entrance to the Ice Prison, Yosia felt anxious. Just when she wanted to use her strong body to break through the rubble, she was stopped by Inota who was standing beside her.
"Let me handle it, Yosiah."
Worried that Jusia's forced breakthrough would cause a more serious collapse of the ice prison at the rear, Enota took the initiative to take over the task.
A bright yellow portal opened from the front of the pile of rubble. The powerful suction coming from it instantly sucked in a large amount of rubble and sent it to an unknown space.
Rhodes noticed that Inota's method of opening the door to another dimension was similar to the method of connecting her own storage space. Compared with the conventional door to another dimension, she did not consume much mana in doing so.
The entire snowy area where the Dragon Kingdom is located was almost bombarded by meteors and fire showers. The special rituals that originally existed under the snowy mountains to restrict space spells were no longer effective.
Soon, the boulder blocking the road was sucked away, revealing the deep, dark passage behind.
Rhodes and his party entered quickly. In addition to the breath of the living, Rhodes also sensed the rich energy of death.
The prison cells holding the sub-dragon species on both sides were still intact, and the ice walls around them bore traces of violent destruction. It seemed that they had not had much effect.
"That's..." Inota exclaimed.
Following Inota's line of sight, Rhodes noticed that it was the corpse of a sub-dragon species. He had a lizard-like body and looked thinner. His stiff body was already covered with frost. Due to the temperature here, Extremely low, the body will not decompose in a short period of time.
The corpse's hands poked out from between the fences made of ice, as if they wanted to escape from the ice prison, but with his strength, he was obviously unable to do so. Other than that, there were no obvious external injuries.
"He either starved to death or froze to death." After a brief observation, he saw that the death energy was always concentrated in the body and did not leak out like the killed creature. Rhodes came to his own conclusion, "Dragon-slaying hero Let him go, but he died in the ice prison imprisoning the dragon species."
Yosia snorted coldly, walked towards the depths of the Ice Prison without answering Rhodes' words.
