The war was over, and after the carnival on the front lines, the coalition forces began to organize their retreat.
Because the number of casualties was controllable, the wounded were properly treated.
The dragon even took the initiative to send the City of Chaos and the Night Elves directly back to the City of Chaos. Of course, this was also because they happened to be on the way.
Mag was not in a hurry to leave. Although Cthulhu was sealed, not everything was going to be fine.
Jonas teamed up with several tenth-level formation mages and deployed several powerful formations in addition to the sealing formation. While strengthening the formation, it also prevented others from breaking in and lifting the seal.
In addition, each tribe also sent tenth-level strongmen to stay behind, and the rules of rotation were set for three years. In the first round, the Los Empire, Dragon Clan and Orc Clan sent tenth-level strongmen to stay. .
In addition, Lankester, who has not yet awakened, has also become a headache for Mag.
Elizabeth was still waiting by Lankester's side, looking worried.
After leaving Maimi's Restaurant for more than a month, she looked much thinner.
Lewis and Douglas stood at a distance, equally troubled by how to solve Lankester's problem.
Irina has used Holy Light to perform several rounds of deep cleaning on Lankester, dispelling all the dark evil energy from his body.
However, Cthulhu is so cunning that no one knows whether Lankester will ever truly regain his sanity.
Lankester is powerful and extremely dangerous.
Moreover, it is still unclear how he became possessed. These are all things that need to be traced back to their origins.
After Irina healed Lankester again, Lankester, who had been unconscious for several hours, finally woke up.
His eyelids moved and he opened his eyes, revealing a pair of clear golden eyes.
Looking at the sight of ice and snow, he was stunned for a moment. He tried to stand up, but was trapped by the seal and could not move.
"Father!"
Elizabeth couldn't hide her excitement, looked at Lankester and called out.
Lankester looked up at Elizabeth, was silent for a while, and said, "Elizabeth?"
"Yes, the father is me! Elizabeth." Elizabeth nodded quickly, looking at Elizabeth who was locked by the seal, her eyes full of distress.
"Why are you here? That devil..." Lankester seemed to suddenly remember something, his expression suddenly became tense, and his body was shining with golden light, trying to break free from the shackles of the seal.
"The devil has been re-sealed. Father, don't worry, we are safe now." Elizabeth said quickly.
"It seems that there is no problem." Irina whispered to Mag.
"We have to keep a closer look." Mag was noncommittal. When Qiao Xiu was controlled by the devil, he didn't show much abnormality and deceived countless people.
Douglas and Lewis also showed joy on their faces. If Lankester could regain his consciousness, it would undoubtedly be a good thing for the dragon clan.
"Has it been re-sealed?" Lankester was stunned for a moment, his eyes turned and fell on Mag who was standing aside, with a look of surprise on his face, "Alex? Why are you here?"
However, a look of pain soon appeared on his face, and some messy memory fragments began to flash back in his mind.
"Father!" Elizabeth looked at him nervously.
After a long time, Lankester digested those memories and sighed solemnly: "I am the guilty dragon."
Mag stepped forward, looked at Lankester and said: "It seems that you have remembered something. You don't have to feel too guilty, but we need to know what happened between you and Cthulhu? Why did you appear here? In the sealed cave under Dragon Island? Why did you follow Cthulhu here?"
Lankester thought for a while and said: "Three years ago, I discovered the ancient ruins under Dragon Island. Because there was black evil energy leaking out, and there was a terrible aura coming out, I stayed and waited. and observation.
But I didn't expect that the black demonic energy slowly eroded my sanity and was eventually controlled by it. When it escaped, I tried to kill it, but I was far from being a match for it and was completely controlled.
Later I lost my memory, but just now I remembered some fragments, which took me to the ice field and started digging and summoning ancient corpses. You and I have fought against each other before, and I have also killed humans and tribesmen..."
Lankester's voice was a little low, filled with deep remorse.
As a proud dragon, becoming an accomplice of the devil and bringing disaster to the world is something he cannot accept.
Moreover, he personally killed dozens of giant dragons and hundreds of coalition troops of various races, and his hands were stained with the blood of many innocent people.
Mag nodded slightly, which was not much different from what he expected.
Before this, almost no one knew what the existence of the Old Ones was. Lankester was controlled by Cthulhu without any defense. After his resistance failed, he became a puppet.
However, relying on the strong will, he at least preserved his sanity.
A weak-willed person like Qiao Xiu would soon have his soul devoured and become a tool man.
"How is your physical condition now? Can Cthulhu still exert influence on you? Is there still his breath left in your body?" Mag asked.
this point is very important.
Elizabeth also looked at Lankester nervously.
Douglas and Louis exchanged a glance, which is related to whether Lankester can regain his freedom.
Lankester closed his eyes, and his body glowed with a faint silver light.
Not long after, strands of black energy were forced out from between his scales, dissipated and annihilated after touching the sealing formation.
Lankester opened his eyes and said calmly: "All the demonic energy I can sense has been expelled from the body. It should be because Cthulhu is sealed. Now I am no longer affected by it."
Mag nodded slightly.
He looked at Lewis and Douglas.
These two are highly respected seniors of the Dragon Clan, and they are considered to be closely related to Lankester.
Douglas stepped forward, glanced at Lankester, and then looked at McGonagall and said: "Alex, Lankester was controlled by the devil before and made all kinds of murderous actions. Now he has regained his consciousness. Our Dragon Clan Hopefully we can get him back.”
Lewis also nodded and said: "I can't blame him for this. We all see how powerful Cthulhu is. It is already very difficult to maintain this sanity. If we continue to kill each other, we are just falling into Cthulhu's trap."
"Well, this matter is not Lankester's fault. Now that he has escaped the control of Cthulhu, it is best to start his life again." McGonagall nodded, even for the sake of Elizabeth and Yabei Mia. On the other hand, he would not embarrass Lankester.
And as the two said, Cthulhu is an existence beyond the scope of this world's cognition. Being controlled by him cannot be changed by anyone's will.
