Chapter 1077 - Under the Three Moons
Chapter 1077: Under the Three Moons
The day of three full moons.
The three maroon full moons hung high up in the night sky, illuminating the land like it was a sea of blood. In contrast, the pitch-black shadows seemed particularly dense under their scarlet radiance. Soaring in the night sky, Rhode witnessed the twisted shadows under the heart-wrenching rays of red light as though they possessed their own consciousness and shifted with the living creatures. This scene seemed so distinct; no wonder players in the game often assessed the day of three full moons in the Country of Darkness as the opening of the gate to another world. On this day, the dark, terrifying world merged with the Country of Darkness as one and just as the name suggested, the Country of Darkness turned into a country under the unbounded dark night as the supreme rulers.
But all this was nothing to Rhode as he drifted in the air casually, gazing at the scenery below with curiosity. The Void Dragon expanded her wings beside him comfortably, soaring forward above the maroon surface. The darkness ahead turned denser like thick, black ink rendering heaven and earth in a mysterious hue.
"What method do you think the Dark Dragon will use to welcome us?"
Rhode gazed at the rapidly spreading darkness and said with a smile. They didn't board the magic warship because firstly, Rhode thought that he would be making a big fuss if he did it over this small matter. Secondly, he didn't wish to reveal his strongest, secret weapon to the Country of Darkness. Even though he could threaten the Country of Darkness greatly if he sent the magic warships over, it was unnecessary for Rhode to send a threat of this extent. If he only wanted to showcase his strength to the Country of Darkness, relying on his younger sister would be sufficient. At this thought, Rhode couldn't help but imagine the scene when Ion vomited blood out of rage. That would be truly pleasing and satisfying.
Well, who could blame my younger sister for being so adorable?
"Big Brother?"
At this moment, a crisp voice dragged him back to reality. Rhode lifted his head and looked ahead where an enormous, pitch-black city showed up before their eyes. That was the capital of the Country of Darkness, the Darkness Capital, Drekoen.
Unlike what outsiders imagined, Drekoen wasn't a lifeless, run-down city like a graveyard. Instead, even in the eyes of a transmigrator like Rhode, it could be considered a splendid and prosperous city. Bright spots of light shone throughout the entire city, making it stand out from the country of eternal darkness. Even though the ice-cold radiance wasn't as warm as the Country of Light, it exuded unnegligible prestige and magnificent presence.
"This is a great work of a city from those guys."
Rhode snorted at the sight of the six lighthouses emanating green brilliance.
The six lighthouses constructed around Drekoen could be considered one of the Country of Darkness's most lethal weapons. Just like the turtle-shell protection over Grandia from the plane of existence, the six lighthouses were known as the 'guardians of the eternal night sky'. As long as they were lit up, the strength of every undead creature within its range would be multiplied. At the same time, enemies would also be weakened drastically. Back then, when players in the game attacked Drekoen, they suffered gravely with the presence and support of the six lighthouses. Under the bright radiance, even the skeletal soldiers with the lowest level transformed into skeletal warriors, not to mention how powerful the great liches would became.
Attacking Drekoen was still the worst war that happened in the game. It lasted for a month and a half, involving 13 player guilds of the Country of Light and 8 player guilds of the Country of Darkness. During the peak of the war, there were more than 150,000 players involved. These players were the strongest of the game, equipped with the best armor and weapons. At the end of the war, each player died at least 100 times on average and corpses filled the land as blood flowed into rivers. There were several times when players managed to climb over the city walls of several meters tall through trampling over their own corpses that weren't removed by the system's refresh. The system refresh happened every 30 minutes and this went to show just how intense the war was.
Of course, it still wasn't able to stop the players. After they extinguished three of the lighthouses and occupied the front line, Rhode made Orchid Heart command other members to attract aggression from the troops ahead, while he led and sneaked in with the elites and deployed Starlight's most well-known 'backstabbing' tactic to defeat the Dark Dragon. After losing the Dark Dragon and his dragon soul protection, the Darkness Capital crumbled entirely thereafter.
But Rhode didn't know if he had the chance to repeat this scene from the game again.
Gazing at the Darkness Capital ahead, Rhode smacked his lips. It sure felt great to eradicate the Dark Dragon back then.
And now, he understood why he lit up the six lighthouses when there was no invasion from enemies. It was apparent that the six lighthouses were used as a military show of force. Perhaps this would be nothing in the face of Creator Dragons, but it expressed a certain attitude.
Alright then, I shall also show him our attitude in this matter.
"I'll leave it to you then."
"Got it, Big Brother."
As Rhode and his younger sister spoke, they had arrived above Drekoen. Then, the Void Dragon dove into the Darkness Capital nonchalantly, covering half the sky with her massive body as she narrowed her eyes and scanned the city below. Then, she flapped her wings slightly.
————!
In an instant, the scorching flames on the six lighthouses quickly weakened like flames struggling in a mighty storm. After a few seconds, they had turned into six, tiny bonfires. The incomparably bright flames were nowhere to be seen anymore. The omnipresent radiance had faded away. Looking at this scene, the undead creatures guarding above the lighthouses were baffled. They were aware that the Void Dragon was arriving, but this scene shook them. They didn't feel the presence of wind a few seconds ago. However, the Void Dragon merely flapped her wings and the dazzling flames were weakened to this large extent immediately.
How did the Void Dragon do it?
But the Void Dragon apparently had no intention of minding their dubious gazes. She gazed ahead and spotted the crowd gathered around the plaza below the tall, protruding tower in the Darkness Capital. She expanded her wings and descended to the plaza gradually, slowly transforming back to her human form in an ethereal brilliance. As soon as her feet touched the surface, the illusory radiance vanished and she strolled out of it.
She's the one?
Not only the Dark Dragon, but the three legendary generals also revealed dubious expressions. This was because in terms of appearance, she was indeed identical to Rhode. Besides, she also owned the dragon form, which left them even more dubious. Apart from Creator Dragons and their dependents, no one could transform into the dragon form. But if they were to compare this young lady with Erin, who was also a dependent, it wouldn't be appropriate either. This young lady's aura was so powerful that despite one standing far away, one would be in shock at the sight of this enormous dragon. If she was only a dependent of the Creator Dragons, that would be over exaggerating.
However, what surprised them more was the young lady in her human form. Unlike her in the dragon form, in terms of appearance, she seemed slender, delicate, and had a pale complexion as though she were suffering from a serious illness. If they were to judge her on her appearance, they couldn't see any presence of strength at all. But when one reached the caliber of the Dark Dragon and four legendary generals, one could clearly feel the massive power contained in her. Even though the power wasn't revealed entirely, its presence was much more staggering than the Dark Dragon's.
This puzzled them because in Dragon Soul Continent, physical fitness and internal strength were directly proportional. For instance, a young lady like Anne seldom fell sick even after she underwent hardships. As for beings in the Legendary Stage, they wouldn't be sick, poisoned, or whatnot. Although this young lady had powerful strength on the inside, she seemed extremely weak and delicate, which was astonishing to them.
Of course, they couldn't possibly know that this appearance of hers was what she looked like when she was sick in real life. It was due to this reason that after being affected by the power of contrast, the young lady continued to look pale and weak.
Who exactly is she?
Ion dwindled his astonished expression. He initially refused to believe his younger sister's words, but now he had to admit that even though this young lady looked identical as Rhode, her internal qualities were entirely unique. Ion didn't feel this powerful prestige from Rhode before and now…
Before he finished thinking through, the young lady brought on a calm, gentle smile and sauntered toward him.
"Greetings, Your Majesty Dark Dragon," she greeted.
