Chapter 98

"Neither can you?" Dewey took a deep breath.

"Me?" The old magician laughed: "I can't, at least in this world, I only think there are two guys whose magic power may surpass mine. One is his Majesty the pope in the temple, and the other is the chairman of the Magic Union. "

Dewey didn't understand the old magician.

But then the old magician said with a wry smile, "I think the two guys I just mentioned may surpass me. But the dragon clan leader is the guy I know, whose strength is definitely better than mine! Because when I came here 200 years ago, I had a fight with it. It almost killed me with half of its strength. I think that if I didn't have the contract between Aragon and the dragon, I would have died here 200 years ago! "

Just then, the voice of the dragon clan leader has come from the cave.

"You are too modest, my friend."

The patriarch had already come back. He came slowly with a long and narrow box in his hand and said with a smile, "I want to correct your two mistakes. First, I don't know about others, but I think the chairman of the magician Union in the human world is not as powerful as you. Second, the strength of his holiness is not "possible" above you, but certainly above you. "

"How do you know?" Dewey asked.

"Because, I've been to your human world... Incarnated like this, to travel your human world, to learn your culture and civilization... Because I'm curious, what's the human world like, and there are strong people like Aragorn! I go to the human world every 100 years, but I am disappointed every time! Because it seems that even the largest number of races: humans. There has never been a strong man like Aragorn The head of the dragon clan said faintly: "I have secretly challenged the chairman of the magician Union and the Pope of the temple. So, my old friend, you don't have to be modest. I think you can definitely rank first in the ranks of magicians in the human world... If the Pope doesn't leave the temple. "

With that, he threw the box on the ground. The tone gradually cooled down: "OK! Take the key and go! My old friend, you know where the secret room is! Open it, take what's inside, and leave my domain! You have at least one thing right: I still hate human beings! Especially that wretch of Aragon

With that, the Dragon patriarch snorted and turned to leave.

Just as it hummed, Dewey suddenly felt the sound in his ears. As if there is an invisible big hand hard to hold his heart, and then as if the whole body of blood are pouring up!

The sound was like a heavy hammer!

Du Wei's face turned pale for a moment, then he almost fainted in the dark! Fortunately, the old magician took Duwei seriously, and his palm was on the back of Duwei's heart. A glimmer of light came over Dewey. Dewey took a deep breath and came back.

But then, behind him, Hussein's face suddenly changed, and the proud Knight opened his mouth. A mouthful of blood came out of my mouth!

The knight was shocked and looked at the cave where the dragon clan leader disappeared. He gritted his teeth and said, "this... What is this?"

"It's dragon magic." The old magician sighed: "it has been merciful."

"But why is she OK?" Dewey points to Medusa standing there quietly.

"Because the patriarch hates only humans." The old magician grinned bitterly. He looked at Hussein with an angry look: "Hussein! Don't expect you to challenge him now! Believe me, even if you are a paladin, your strength is far from it! "

Before the head of the dragon clan left, the magic of dragon language was really powerful. Under the comfort of the old magician's light magic, Du Wei's mind gradually calmed down, and his blood gradually calmed down. And Hussein. If it wasn't for the old magician's warning, the proud Knight would have gone to fight with the dragon clan leader now.

"It seems that the bearing of the dragon people is not so good." Du Wei said with a wry smile: "because Aragon defeated the dragon people and made them lose face, so the patriarch hated Aragon so much that even we hated him?"

The old magician frowned and whispered, "I told you. The patriarch is a complicated guy. It says that Aragorn is the one it hates the most. In fact, it seems to me. It not only hated Aragorn, but also had a subtle respect. After all, Aragorn is the only human who has defeated the dragon head head head head. It is this kind of complex mind that makes it sneak into the human world to travel

With these words, the old magician said in a loud voice: "well, don't waste time. It's important for us to get down to business! Follow me. Let's go and see the secret room that Aragorn left here! "

Immediately, people followed the old magician out of the hall. The old guy seems to be familiar with the road here. After passing through a cave, facing countless forks inside, he took a few people to turn left and right without hesitation,

Along the way, to Dewey's surprise, they saw some strange "things.".

It was in the passage of the cave (to be honest, Dewey even doubted whether he had got into the rat hole. The cave of the dragon people extends in all directions, with forks everywhere, There are some high rock platforms. Those rocks are all black rock iron unique to Shenshan. On the platform, there are sharp spines, big and small... Heads!

It's the head, and the shapes are different. What's more puzzling is that it seems that none of these heads belong to human beings!

On the sharp edges like these spikes, the skulls were different in appearance, and some wore strange helmets, but the same thing was that Dewey could see that these skulls seemed to have been twisted off!

I don't know how many years have passed. Fortunately, the temperature in this place is very cold and dry, so these heads have been dried. But they didn't rot, and they could barely see their true colors!

So Dewey saw these things:

Those heads are three or four times bigger than ordinary people. From the facial features and bone shape, they seem to be like some kind of cat, as well as the faint residual lines on their dried skin... Flat mouth and nose, as well as the ears above the head... What's terrible is that the edges and corners below pierce their necks. Then he stretched out from his mouth, which made the scene particularly frightening!

For others, the mouth is long and convex, but you can't see the obvious nose. It's just two small holes above the mouth, probably the nostrils for breathing. But the ear is very small... From the shape, it is more like some kind of animal like cattle and horses.

It has a long jaw like a crocodile. Occupying two-thirds of the whole skull, the teeth are distributed on the upper and lower jaw, extremely sharp... Anyway, humans can't have such teeth.

Seeing these skulls and thinking of the headless mummies at the foot of the mountain, Dewey couldn't help but feel excited! These heads have been weathered for an unknown number of years. The skin is dry and shriveled. Although it doesn't rot, it looks terrible, especially some eyelids that haven't been closed. There are empty eyes in the drooping eyelids

Of course, there are also some guys who are very similar to human beings. Their heads are slightly smaller, even much thinner than normal human beings. From the size of their heads, Dewey guesses that the stature of this race is about shorter and thinner than ordinary human beings, but their appearance is the most pleasing to the eye among these heads. Even if it's weathered and dried up. The faces of these guys are still vivid. From the outline of their facial features, they are obviously very delicate and well proportioned, only their long, pointed ears

"These are the elves." The old magician appropriately reminded him, his tone was very low: "those big things are orcs."

"You know?" Dewey looked back at the old magician.

"Yes, these. It's the expelled race. " The old magician whispered.

The expelled race. Dewey said this in his heart. Seems to have a feeling, slowly through these inserted head of the sharp rocks.

But all the way. To his surprise, after walking out of this channel, it was a bottomless abyss!

The abyss is in the hinterland of the holy mountain. The edge of the abyss is very narrow. However, in the distance where Duwei is, you can see a large cave mouth. Then a protruding rock extends all the way to the abyss, forming a huge platform.

Under the abyss, there was a faint wind whistling, and it was still winding with the black air of death. The wind seemed to be mixed with some kind of shrill cry, which made people feel creepy!

"Here is the sacrificial altar." The old magician pointed to the protruding rock opposite the abyss and said with a smile, "that's the altar. The dragon people will store the heads of the killed prisoners around the abyss, insert them on the stabbed rocks, and then offer sacrifices every 100 years. They're going to take those heads off the spiked rock, and after a ritual, they're going to throw them into the canyon. And then... Looking forward to the next century, in which they will continue to kill the strong of the expelled race who are trying to come back from the north, and then put their heads on the spikes, waiting for the next sacrifice, and then throw them into the abyss. "

"What's the point of that?" Dewey didn't understand.

"The mission of the dragon people is to guard here! But this mission has existed for many years! Even before the time of Aragon, the dragon people have been here! You think that such a mission is to guard, but in fact, it is not a kind of imprisonment for the dragon people? Isn't it the same as limiting the dragon clan here forever? What's the difference between this and a prisoner? Therefore, when the dragon people accepted the mission given by the gods, they were not willing. So the gods left them a glimmer of hope... A glimmer of hope to get rid of this mission. A condition for fulfilling the mission. "

"What conditions?"

The old magician had a strange look in his eyes. He looked at the unfathomable abyss under his feet and listened to the wind coming from below. He whispered: "the gods and the dragon have an agreement: if one day, when the heads of the evil races they left behind are enough to fill the abyss, the mission of the dragon will be completed! Then, the dragon can live freely! No longer bound by this mission

Fill the abyss with his head... Dewey looks ahead and looks at the dark, bottomless bottom. How many heads do he have to use!
