Red dragon: in charge of natural disasters

"Boom--"

Instantly, the dark red and silver-white flames penetrated a series of defenses and rushed directly to Barachiel in the center of the fortress.

"Ah--" At this moment, the proud Lord of the Silver Heaven showed anger, his eyes shot out two thrilling beams of light, and He wailed for the first time.

At this moment, Barachiel was no longer perfect. The six huge wings behind Him were instantly scorched and gradually turned into ashes. His chest was burned and torn by the flames, revealing a transparent sphere flickering inside.

The background color of the sphere was the dark night sky, which was filled with stars, and also showed a silver ocean, an exquisite temple, and a majestic holy mountain, like a miniature universe-that was the origin of Barachiel's heaven.

He no longer looked like a living being, but like some kind of constructed creature. Everything in his body was a product of exquisite and perfect order created by the power of heaven.

Now, the fire of chaos brutally destroyed his body, tearing the order in his body, the flames raged and burned, turning everything into chaos.

Barachiel stretched out the silver sword with his burning arm and roared deafeningly: "I will make you pay! Judgment!"

He angrily swung down the sword, and the giant sword of stars in the sky also fell down. It contained the majestic power of the law of heaven, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at the rapidly climbing red dragon.

If hit by this sword of heaven, the fate of the red dragon would probably not be much better than that of Barachiel now.

However, for Cassius now, simple defense is useless, and offense is the best defense.

As long as all the sources of heaven's power are killed, this so-called final judgment will be like rootless water, and will disappear completely.

"Boom--"

Cassius also roared, and he flapped his wings suddenly, climbing up the Immortal Fortress with the blazing flames wrapped around his body.

The red dragon used its claws to grab the gap in the wall, and the veins on its arms bulged. It suddenly exerted force and tore the solid wall apart, enlarging the hole, and then retracted its wings and drilled in!

"Go to hell!"

Casius roared, turning into a red afterimage dragging flames, and rushed towards Barachiel in the center of the fortress with great momentum.

"Evildoer, you should die!" Barachiel swung his sword with all his strength, and sharp blades of light flew over, and countless thunders bombarded.

The bright silver horn also blew suddenly, accompanied by melodious and exciting hymns, grand and lofty words of creation, and various spiritual and soul attacks followed.

But Casius was not afraid, his scales suddenly turned golden and sparkled, and the characteristics of [Gilded Scales] were activated. Then, complex and mysterious patterns suddenly lit up, covering the surface of the red dragon, and the ability of [Carved Skin Dragon] was also displayed by Casius.

Under the effect of [Super Magic: Instant Casting], several layers of magic shields suddenly appeared on the red dragon's body, and star-like fragments surrounded its body.

"Roar——"

Due to Barachiel's fierce attack, in a very short time, all of Cassius's defenses were shattered, and his body surface became scarred.

But the red dragon still rushed to Barachiel with an unstoppable momentum under the overwhelming attack.

"Got you."

Cassius grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, showing a hideous smile, and stretched out his claws to hold Barachiel's burning body.

At this moment, Barachiel was surrounded by flames, and his perfect face had long been unrecognizable, charred all over, and even looked a little scary.

For beings who are born perfect and symbolize order, even a little flaw is enough to drive them crazy, and now Barachiel has completely changed.

If it weren't for the fact that Barachiel's soul had the essence of order, he would have lost his mind long ago.

At this moment, he roared to the sky like a demon burning in hell, twisting and struggling angrily, trying to escape from the claws of the red dragon.

"Sinner! I'm going to kill you!" Barachiel swung his sword with his arms about to break, and each sword stabbed at the eyes, throat, heart and other vital parts of the red dragon.

Deep scars appeared on Cassius' body, his scales were cut, and dragon blood flowed.

But the red dragon didn't care, just stared at Barachiel in his claws greedily, opened his mouth on his own, and a thrilling light was brewing in the depths of his throat.

"Boom--"

The air suddenly exploded, and the terrifying fire column shot straight at Barachiel's chest, bombarding the delicate sphere containing the origin of heaven.

[Breath of Plunder]

In an instant, half of Barachiel's body was burned by the dragon flame, leaving only the origin of heaven still resisting.

Above Cassius's head, the giant sword of heaven was about to fall, but suddenly lost control and dissipated directly in the sky, turning into countless light particles.

The dark red chaos fire destroyed and destroyed the power of order contained in the origin of heaven, while the silver-white order fire reorganized the deconstructed power and transformed it into the "power of heaven" that belonged to Cassius.

At this moment, the pillar of fire in the red dragon's mouth was like a thick needle, constantly extracting the power from the origin of heaven and turning it into its own use.

"Hahahaha, is this the origin of heaven? It's so wonderful!" Cassius greedily devoured Barachiel's origin, and ecstasy appeared on his ferocious dragon face.

Hurry up and grab more at this good opportunity, or there may be no chance in the future, Cassius thought.

"No, no, you dare to plunder the origin of heaven? You will pay the price." Barachiel, who only had half of his body left, was terrified and made a weak voice.

But Cassius was not polite and directly manipulated the fire of chaos to destroy the remaining body of Barachiel, leaving his soul only in the origin of heaven.

From the definition of the material world, Barachiel is dead. The original "He" should abandon the dead body, and his soul and authority will return to Mount Heaven, and he will become one of the many angels again.

But this red dragon is so greedy that he actually tried to plunder the authority of Mount Heaven!

It is a glorious place, an idealization of the best, and a collection of order and kindness, sympathy and mercy in the universe! Even the devils avoid it, but this red dragon actually wants to take it?

In Barachiel's view, this was no longer just a simple villain, but an enemy of order! An existence comparable to the evil of God!

But as a soul, he could only watch this terrible red dragon devour his origin, but he could do nothing about it.

"No——"

Barachiel's soul trembled, uttering a heart-wrenching wail, and the Holy Word of Creation in his body took effect again, and his body suddenly released a dazzling light.

[Heaven Miracle Spell]

This is a spell to call on gods or some great existence, which can require the called to show miracles.

Suddenly, infinite light enveloped the sky, and a magnificent and distant voice came from above: "Stop, you have asked for enough——"

Casius raised his head as expected, looking up at the sky, but he did not stop his plundering at all, and was still transforming the origin of heaven.

"Sure enough, what is coming will come, the real controller of heaven." Casius' tone was a little regretful.

A swirl of shining golden energy slowly emerged above his head. Just by seeing its existence, Cassius could fully feel the breath of justice and fairness that could never exist in the mortal world.

This ball of energy gradually condensed, and a phantom hundreds of meters high appeared in the sky. He had pure golden skin and magnificent white wings shining with platinum metallic luster.

He was surrounded by blazing light, but his expression was humble and kind, and he would not show anger even when facing nominal enemies.

"Zafkiel." Cassius slowly uttered the last few words.

He was the only survivor among the founding members of the Seven Fierce Orders of the Heavens, and he was in charge of the highest level of the Seven Heavens - the Brilliant Heaven Kronias.

Looking up at the incarnation of Zafkiel, even Cassius felt a little hot in his body, as if some power was trying to purify himself.

It is said that he is the incarnation of the purest force of goodness. Only the kindest creatures and the most powerful evil creatures can stand in front of him without being annihilated by the sacred energy he exudes.

[Zafkiel]

Challenge level: ? ? ?

"As expected of the Lord of the Seven Heavens, the legendary existence that shines the entire Heaven Mountain and can rival the gods"

Casius felt the baptism of the breath of justice and fairness, and couldn't help but sigh, but he was not afraid.

In this war, Heaven Mountain also caused a lot of damage to the material world. Casius is a native of the material world, and even if it caused losses, it was the "internal affairs" of the material world, but Barachiel was not.

In this matter, Heaven Mountain was not right, and even violated the rules of the material world to a certain extent.

After all, Barachiel took office later, and there was still some humanity left. As the embodiment of pure order and goodness, Zafkiel would most likely not break the rules and attack him.

"Zafkiel, this evil dragon is plundering the origin of heaven!" Barachiel's soul called anxiously.

And Cassius roared confidently: "This is my territory. You people from Heaven Mountain openly invaded the material world. Don't you have to pay a certain price?"

"Enough."

Zafkiel looked solemn and majestic, and looked at the red dragon below him indifferently: "All disputes should end here."

The golden giant hand descended from the sky, took away the Heaven Origin that had been absorbed for the most part, along with Barachiel's soul, and then disappeared in the sky without leaving any movement.

Casius just watched with regret and did not make a move to stop it. After all, he was not strong enough to fight against Zafkiel's level.

"Although it's a pity, the gains from this battle are enough."

The red dragon felt the power of Amanata and the power of Heaven Origin in his body, and then looked at the information constantly refreshed on the panel, and immediately showed a very satisfied smile.

[You killed [Walter Graham, Wing of Fadlan (Challenge Level: 24)], and received 65,000 XP]

[Killed [Lord of the Messenger - Barachiel (Challenge Level: 31)], and received 185,000 XP

[You killed a Lord of Heaven, and received the legendary achievement [Saint Killer]]

The red dragon flapped its wings, creating a strong hurricane, blowing away the mixed clouds produced by the battle, and letting the sun shine again on the earth.

"North Ethel, also completely belongs to me, this will be the starting point for the Burning Empire to conquer the Fadlan continent!" Cassius looked down at the broken earth, opened his bloody mouth, and let out a long and distant howl.

"Roar——"

On the ground, the officers and soldiers of the coalition army looked up at the sky nervously.

The rolling clouds sometimes burst into dark red flames, sometimes into white holy light, and constantly rang with deafening explosions, making it impossible for them to estimate the situation of the battle.

Finally, the light lit up the sky and penetrated the clouds, and the movement on the battlefield seemed to stop abruptly.

"God, is the battle finally over?"

"Who won?"

"I just felt an extremely holy and fair breath, which should be released by Lord Barachiel."

"So, it was the Lord from heaven who won and the red dragon lost?"

"Amaunator, please protect us, I hope that the evil dragon will be completely destroyed and never invade the south."

"God, please send down a miracle"

The officers and soldiers of the coalition army talked about the outcome of the war, and finally prayed together for their ally, the angel from heaven who represented justice and justice, to win.

Before this, they had witnessed the fall of the God-born Duke Walter and the defeat of the ancient golden dragon Titus, and they had placed their only remaining hope on this most noble and powerful ally.

If even Lord Barachiel could not stop the Burning Emperor, what reason did they have to support themselves to fight?

It can be said that the outcome of this battle will determine their future fate, victory or failure, life or death, everything is hidden behind the thick clouds.

But the Burning Legion was extremely confident. They played passionate music and sang "Ode to Cassius", without any doubt that the red dragon could achieve the final victory.

"Long live His Majesty Cassius!"

"The great red dragon is eternal and invincible!"

"Victory! Victory!"

After all, that was the Burning Emperor. As long as he appeared there, it meant that the war was about to be won. This was the experience summed up by the imperial people over the years.

Finally, a violent gust of wind swept across the sky and blew in, making everyone on the earth feel a hot, sulfurous breath.

Smelling this familiar breath, the officers and soldiers of the coalition army suddenly had their hearts beating wildly, and some extremely bad premonitions emerged in their hearts.

And under such a strong wind, the dense clouds in the sky were also blown away, and the sun shone on the earth again.

"Roar--"

The long dragon roar sounded, which shocked everyone present.

In countless eyes from bottom to top, the red dragon spread out its wings that covered the sky and the sun, and showed off its extremely majestic body wantonly, and the red scales shone brightly under the sunlight.

The cheers of the Burning Ash Legion were even more enthusiastic, like a tsunami, and the passionate "Ode to Cassius" also echoed on this battlefield.

"Gods above."

In the coalition position, the soldiers stared at the red dragon in the sky as if they were looking at the god of destruction who brought the end of the world, and the same fear and despair were revealed in those different eyes.

The white feathers fell gracefully on the soldiers' heads. They knew that the angel was also killed by the dragon.

"Just as he did in the north, the emperor once again stepped onto the stage of the continent of Feansuo with a tough and invincible attitude.

The stage play planned by the emperor was also grand enough. He roared and roared, unstoppably split open the chest of the descendants of gods, broke the wings of the golden dragon, and even took the life of a ruler of heaven.

From then on, the old order of the continent of Feansuo had an irreversible crack."
