The giant dragon soaring in the sky, Verafa Nededonua, as the companion beast of the ancient god Alestat, has been destined to be extraordinary since its birth.
"When the world first opened, there were many living beings active on the earth that could not be seen. This has been the case for thousands of years, and I was one of them."
That huge figure that is as high as the sky is inseparable from Alestat, so it is regarded by the gods as the latter's half, and has a status equivalent to that of a god.
"Until a certain god appeared and gave us the eyes to see things clearly, in exchange he made a three-chapter agreement with us to accompany him as his dependents. In troubled times, gods are not good at fighting, because they are all accompanied by me when traveling like this. Escort escort."
Speaking of Alestat, he is the eldest son of one of the creator gods, "Titan". His terrifying appearance is also called the "Nine-armed Mountain of Flesh" by the gods. The limbs with fangs and tentacles are like pieces of mountain meat. Hai, whose identity and unusual appearance also keep the gods at a distance.
"The god's name is Alestat. He is a thin young man. His appearance is the same as that of the gods. However, he is rejected by the gods because of his withdrawn temperament and lack of words."
Alestat is the god of war, and the dragons of the sky accompany her to fight in all directions. Since her birth, wherever she goes, there are no exceptions to the flames of war, and the defeated wild tribes or wild beasts all bow to her powerful combat power. I surrender willingly.
"In ancient times, once the conflicts between the gods intensified, they would inevitably lead to fights between their respective families, and wars were common. Alestat couldn't bear the innocent creatures in the world to suffer the disaster of pond fish, so she set out to go there in person. Use his divine power to save the common people and accept them all as dependents to protect them from the harm of war."
It's a pity that Alestat's rule did not last long. At the moment when the human race was rising, that is, on the eve of the outbreak of the Shenxiang War, Alestat committed a great crime that once plunged the ancient gods into a desperate situation. , the gods sentenced him to death with the punishment of Ling Chi, and his body was cut into pieces and fed to the beasts of the abyss. From then on, he was forever doomed.
The benevolent gods pardoned the sins of their descendants, but the sky dragon was stubborn and vowed to avenge Alestat. However, after all, it was only half the body of Alestat, but it could not resist the oppression of the true god, and was eventually killed. The iron rope restrains and suppresses Shenxia Fei, and he will never be able to be freed.
"The rise of the human race threatened the status of the gods. The gods negotiated to give the humans who committed the crime of arrogance the punishment they deserve. But when the modern gods and the ancient gods reached a unified front, a heretic appeared among them. "
"Olemundos, the ancient god of hundreds of rivers, had already fallen in love with a human woman before. He revealed to the human race that the gods' invitation to congratulate him was the Hongmen Banquet, which also made the human race prepare for it in advance. So. The strength of the human race at that time was not enough to compete with the gods. They lacked an energy source that could make the machinery run with high power! So Olemondos set his sights on the holy fire formed by the power of faith of the gods. It is a sacred object that belongs to the ancient gods and is coveted by all gods."
"In order to steal the Holy Fire, Olemondos devised an extremely sophisticated plan, and was able to clear his suspicions after the gods discovered that the Holy Fire had been stolen. However, there is a secret, and Olemondos is When he dismissed the gods on duty and planned to take away the holy fire, he accidentally bumped into Alestat, who was excluded from the plan due to his sparse presence. Although Alestat didn't take it seriously and didn't He tried to stop him, but the matter still bothered Olemondos. He knew the other party's temperament well and was not worried that Alestat would betray him, but because the other party's appearance happened to disrupt his plan. Alestat, who was at the scene at that time and was already the target of public criticism, would undoubtedly replace one of the ancient gods planned to be sacrificed and was regarded as the biggest suspect. No god would believe his explanation. Waiting. His only will be judgment from the gods."
The giant dragon soaring in the sky felt a little tired, as if he was sleeping in the clouds, until a distant sound of the flute woke him up. He opened his eyes, and what he saw was a man leaning on a stone symbolizing the "floating world". Beside the bottle, the young man was playing the flute calmly as in the past.
The sky is getting late, and the sound of the flute in the quiet night seems to come from an open heart. It floats melodiously, lingers in memories, lingers with infinite thoughts and concerns, and slowly soars up. Rising into the deep sky with stars and bright moon, dancing gracefully with the clouds, it is like the noise of heaven and earth turning into a gorgeous tapestry, like a silent scroll of spiritual animation, and like a new and mysterious music of nature, Fading away in the endless mist.
As if seeing the giant dragon awakening, the sound of the flute stopped along with the boy's movements, and a long-lost greeting came.
"In order to prevent them from being implicated, I broke the contract. I know you have always longed for that freedom, and now you can leave without any worries like them."
"You should have a chance to explain, why did you choose not to act?" However, the dragon did not respond to his expectations, but only expressed the questions that troubled him.
"You know, empty explanations don't make any sense, and I don't think it's necessary." The young man said, looking away from the dragon, looking down at the land as a god as before.
"In fact, there is no reason. If executing me can get the result that everyone expects, then why not accept this fate. After all, in my opinion, if a god will be jealous and afraid of death, then How is He different from mortals?"
Perhaps that is Alestat's explanation. Gods only need to uphold "compassion" and ask for nothing more. Unlike those guys who think they are aloof but have the same desires as mortals, at least until death, he will still Worthy of being a god.
As a result, the dragon named Villafa Neddonua was unable to understand that determination until the end. Is it just because he is not a god and cannot resonate with his thoughts?
The old man of the dragon was unsmiling, and his falling body persisted in resisting death until the end. He flapped his incomplete wings and landed hard in the constant struggle.
He was not afraid of death, but felt ashamed because before that he had not been able to make the realization as calmly as Alestat and come up with a reason that could support his generous death.
But now, since he can repeat the conversation with that god in the revolving door before leaving, he has found that reason.
If I had to use one word to describe this reason...
Villafa lowered his head scarred, protecting a group of Imperial soldiers under his wingspan, and survived because of his protection.
Likewise, the warriors stared tremblingly at the scarred monster in front of them. Even if their hearts were as steely, they could not help but feel a little throbbing in resonance with the drop of blood and tears shed by the giant dragon.
At this moment, facing the despair of not seeing victory, their situation was the same, but compared to those warriors who were born to die, the dragon no longer had any regrets.
He looked up at the sky and let out the most tragic roar in his life. The fierce dragon roar overturned the ground, blocking all the monsters that tried to get close to him for hundreds of miles, and was outside the surging storm.
But this was not enough. Looking around, black shadows covered the sky and the sun. The step taken by the final beast had already reached their heads. Everything within sight, including the existence of the sky dragon itself, would also be destroyed. It was completely erased the moment the giant foot fell.
"Survive on my behalf."
A human voice came from the wind, awakening the consciousness of the dying warriors. When they reacted, the giant dragon in front of them had spread its huge wings and soared high. He would use his body to shake the place... world".
"I... no... I dreamed of a star, a bright moon, and I would be born in the depths of its brisk leisure, high in the mist-shrouded sky."
"There my life will complete its work, like a golden wheat field under the autumn sun."
"It's time to leave." The last words the young man left before leaving rang in his mind.
Accompanied by violent tremors and explosions as if a nuclear weapon had hit him head-on, the old man Long completed a great deed that only he could accomplish at the end of his life!
Although that result only stopped the giant beast for only ten seconds, it was enough to get those imperial soldiers out of danger. But above this, the king of the sky - Verafa Nededonua, guards the memory of the fallen dragon. Only he quietly welcomes the fallen dragon in the darkness with no hope. The "fall".
