Chapter 99 - Adjusting(2)
Right after Desmond turned around, he froze.
From the reflection of the shadow on the river water, Desmond could clearly see the body that was possessed. The body that was possessed turned out to be just like his guess.
Four-legged beasts with large wings spread out over their backs, with every scale protecting their bodies, using an ordinary sword would be impossible to pierce that scale.
Apart from that, the beast also has two horns on the back of its head, towering with a burning fire, at the tip of the horn.
The beast was a cargo truck's size, with red eyes and black skin that made it look like a symbol of evil.
Desmond paused for a moment to appreciate the beast's appearance that amazed him.
"This really is the little dragon in that room…" After admiring the dragon, Desmond came back to his senses and added, "Looks like this is the true form of the dragon; I have to admit that this form is really cool !!"
The amazed Desmond then saw that his gaze had suddenly come to the fore. A second later, he felt that his dry throat filled with water and now had become fresh. Desmond glanced down and saw a long tongue sticking out of the river and into the dragon's mouth.
The long tongue went in and out many times like it was drinking water.
"…" Desmond
Is this really how a dragon drinks water? Thought Desmond. Seeing the dragon, he admired drinking water like a dog, made his heartache.
After the dragon finished drinking, this time, Desmond felt his body advancing.
* blast *
The gaze before him wobbled; this gaze made Desmond dizzy. This went on so long that Desmond finally got used to his view of this.
He felt himself jumping right, forward, and up again and again.
What happens?
Still, Desmond tried to look around him in the same state and found that the dragon's body was jumping up and down repeatedly.
The dragon's tail also struck the river water repeatedly, making a huge splash and spreading everywhere.
Besides that, every time the dragon jumps, it also creates a shock to the surrounding area and makes another water blast.
"…" Desmond.
By the time Desmond saw this, he could already guess what the dragon was doing. He chooses to wait patiently; after all, he can't do anything…
…
After Desmond sensed that the dragon had stopped, this time his gaze moved forward again, returning to the place where the dragon had destroyed the meadow to make its way to the river.
But this time, something strange was bothering Desmond. He could feel the emotions of this dragon rising as if something was upsetting it.
Desmond also felt that this time the way the dragon walked was not as relaxed as before
* creak * * creak *
There was a sound like someone was unzipping a shirt pocket; simultaneously, Desmond also felt a new sensation appear on his body.
This time like a hand growing on his shoulder, Desmond felt the hand stretch out very wide.
Are these wings?
Desmond turned around and got his guess right.
Apart from the change in emotions, this time, Desmond saw the dragon spread its gigantic wings as well. Desmond saw that there was a long bone to the tip of the wing on the top of the wing. But, at the tip of the wing, there is a different bone shaped like an eagle's claw.
The wings' overall color is lighter than the color of the scales on the dragon's body, which is dark gray with circular patterns like plant roots decorating all parts of the dragon's wings.
Also, the membrane on the dragon's wing is similar to cow skin. Even though the dragon's wings were very soft like a cloth when viewed from the outside, if people approached and paid close attention to them, they would find a hard wrinkle.
Also, these wings were 1.5 times longer than the dragon's original body. Desmond imagined that if the dragon flew, wouldn't it look cool with its long wings?
After spreading the wings, Desmond felt that his body suddenly became light and
* swoosh *
His gaze slowly approached the sky; at that moment, he saw that the previous dragon's place had been shattered due to the pressure created by the dragon to fly.
* thump * thump *
The dragon was also like lunging at the leaves of a tree that blocking the sunlight from entering. Not only the leaves, but even a single tree fell due to the attack from the dragon's hard body.
Meanwhile, as Desmond was flying, below him, he saw a mass of humans. The humans were strangely wearing armor patterned with dragon skins.
Apart from that, the humans worn the helmet also gave the impression that it was part of a dragon's skull.
Desmond was surprised when he saw this. Not only were the clothes unfamiliar to him, but the attitude too. Even though Desmond was in the air, he was not entirely in the sky yet; therefore, Desmond could still hear what the humans were saying.
"! @ S #!" At first, he thought that he had heard wrong, but the next human spoke a foreign language, which confirmed his guess.
System, system, translate the language.
Desmond waited for the system while observing the way the humans communicated. Apart from opening their mouths, they also give a hand sign every time they finish speaking.
But after waiting for a while, Desmond also hadn't received a reply from the system. This made him frown; besides that, he slowly ascended into the sky, making these people's conversation no longer audible.
Is this really a dream? Thought Desmond. If this wasn't a dream, the system would definitely answer this command even when he was trapped in a separate dimension.
* swoosh *
The moment Desmond thought, he felt a sense of danger. An object advancing rapidly aimed at the dragon's left-wing.
* roar *
The dragon roared in pain; the dragon turned around and saw a fiery spear piercing and crushing its wing bones.
The dragon looked down at the people with red eyes, the dragon opened its mouth, and a blue flame shot out of its mouth.
The blue flame-like meteor but with slow speed and less pressure; still, the heat can't be underestimated; when the blue flame reaches the ground, it makes the surrounding area feel hot and cold at the same time.
Meanwhile, Desmond, who was thinking, suddenly shouted. Because he felt what the dragon also felt, the moment the spear pierced and crushed the dragon's wing bone, Desmond felt again how he lost his right hand.
This pain he would never forget; therefore, the dragon's emotions also affected Desmond's mind.
He stared at the humans with red eyes.
I'll kill you all.
As if the dragon could read Desmond's mind, its body shot down right at the humans.
* boom *
With its tough scales, a single impact on the ground didn't hurt it. But different from those humans.
* chink *
A moment later, instead of feeling the human flesh, a hard object suddenly appears, preventing the dragon's giant body smash.
The dragon looked down and found that all the humans were still alive in a dome made of a mixture of iron and wood.
Besides that, when the dragon saw the humans, the humans smiled evilly.
* roar *
Seeing this, Desmond and the dragon became irritated. The dragon opened its mouth and spat out blue flames at the dome.
* clatter ** clatter *
The dragon continued to spit out the blue flames, making the dome's exterior start to melt. This fire burns the surrounding environment, be it grass that is as tall as a human being, and even the logs that block the sunlight cannot be avoided.
DIE! DIE! DIE!
Desmond's killing intent emanated; although Desmond was only a form of consciousness, he sensed that this was his body. And those people made him lose a part of his body.
The fire kept coming out of the dragon's mouth until, for hours. And finally, the dome that protected the humans had completely melted.
But when the dome melted, Desmond and the dragon saw that the people had something in their hands.
* swoosh * * swoosh *
One by one, the spears shot towards the dragon, each of them gave off an aura of destruction, and each spear also represented the respective element of nature.
* roar *
Previously the dragon had been attacked silently but not this time. Desmond could feel his emotions getting out of control, and he was also thirsty for blood to kill all the humans in front of him.
After the dragon's roar, a shadow of a dragon's head appeared in front of the dragon, the shadow was made of light and charged forward to fight the spears.
* roar * * roar *
Every time the dragon roared, the shadow of the dragon's head also roared and made it even bigger; this time, the head was big enough to swallow the dragon's real body.
* boom *
The moment the shadow of the dragon's head met the spears, an explosion to occur
