Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 537: The Dragon King's Curse, the Devil's Tribulation
The smell of blood, so thick that it was about to turn into liquid, surged in his nasal cavity. The breathing filtration system built into the helmet had long been damaged in the battle, but the warrior Spade had long ignored the discomfort from his nasal cavity and was wholeheartedly concentrating on killing the snake-men aliens that kept pouring in front of him.

As a full member of the Dragon and Lion's Fang, Spard has already fulfilled his boyhood dream. He has obtained all the material and emotional needs he wanted when he was young. Now, he has only one ideal in life.

Fight for His Majesty the Holy Dragon!

The worlds captured by the Chapter were once again in rebellion, and not only that, the rebels also slaughtered their fellow warriors and the governor in charge of administration.

There is no doubt that this is a contempt for the dignity of His Majesty the Holy Dragon and a trampling on the honor of the regiment. This shame must be washed away with blood.

However, the strength of the rebels was beyond the expectations of all members of the Dragon Lion's Fang Regiment. The moment the legion's floating layer entered the world, the fierce attack from the alien race submerged the floating city.

Spade had forgotten when the outer defense of the regiment's floating city was shattered. This matter was no longer important at the moment. What was important was how he could crush more snake people.

The snakemen were like demons from the abyss. They could never be killed. After killing one group, a second group would rush to the front. These endless streams of snakemen emerged and attacked the iron barrier formed by him and his brothers in the regiment.

This was an extremely difficult and bloody battle. Spard had forgotten everything and only had the enemy in front of him in his eyes. In the constant hacking and killing, the brothers in the regiment beside him, who were originally as indestructible as mountains, fell one by one under the continuous impact of the snake tide.

Although the modified dragonmen equipped with magic kinetic armor possess unparalleled combat power that is completely superior to that of the extraordinary people of the same level on the battlefield, they are not invincible after all. They will also be injured, bleed, and feel tired, and their strength is not endless.

Therefore, on a battlefield where there is no free time and it is difficult to rest, even the most elite champion warriors will fall.

However, even though the number of fighting brothers around him was decreasing, Spard did not have the slightest fear in his heart. Even though he had foreseen his own death, no soldier would be afraid of death, especially dying heroically on the battlefield.

This is the highest honor for a warrior, and also for a dragonman. His Majesty the Holy Dragon's Hall of Valor will open its doors to them, and they will gain eternal life therein.

But the dragon people will never pursue meaningless death in battle. Any warrior is proud to kill more enemies on the battlefield. This is a merit and also a glory.

Therefore, Spard, who has already disregarded life and death, is now thinking about how to kill more aliens who dare to offend the majesty of His Majesty the Holy Dragon before his life ends.

roar~
Standing on a mountain of corpses, walking in the blood and mud, Spard, holding a broken sword in his hand, suddenly looked up and saw the long winding shadow in the sky. Anger emerged, but before the warrior could do anything,

boom!
A ray of light descended from the sky and completely penetrated the floating city in an instant. He felt the wailing coming from the floating city.

This floating fortress was falling downwards, but even so, the snakemen that emerged from the cracks in time and space still did not give up the attack. They climbed up continuously, from the sky, from the earth, from every possible crack, and attacked the dragon warriors who were still swinging their swords.

"Barbarians! Accept your judgment!"

Even Spard, who was ready to face death, couldn't help but become furious when he felt the wailing of the city beneath his feet. He could accept his own death, but he would never accept the destruction of his regiment in this war.

But now that the floating city has been destroyed, everything seems to have become a foregone conclusion. How can the war group that has lost the floating city gain a foothold in the void, and how can they launch a response to the great expedition initiated by His Majesty the Holy Dragon.

Without a strategic floating city, no matter how outstanding a regiment is, it can only retreat to the second line and will not be qualified to enter the front-line battlefield.

But emotions like anger are meaningless on the battlefield. The furious Spard lost his composure and was unable to make the most accurate judgment.

Although the snakemen who fell under his sword died in a more miserable way, his defense also had gaps and his armor was torn apart by several snakemen.

"I can't die like this..."

Although he could no longer remember how many snakemen he had killed, Spard was certain that he had beheaded the most snakemen in the company, because when he looked around, he could no longer see any of his battle brothers, and it seemed that he was the only one who survived to the end.

If the legion was still in place, after the war, he should be able to obtain the title of champion warrior, obtain a higher military rank, and lead more brothers into a more brutal battlefield.

Unfortunately, he no longer had a chance. The shadow of death had already enveloped him. Although the glory of Valhalla was already shining on his body, Spard was still unwilling to give up. He felt that he had not killed enough and that he should be able to do better.

Ang~
With a long moan that sounded from the sun and echoed throughout the heaven and earth, a blazing warmth burst out and instantly filled his whole body. The chill of impending death was swept away, and Spard, who was on the verge of collapse and whose body was exhausted, began to burn up, and an unprecedented sense of power gradually spread throughout his body.

"Your Majesty the Holy Dragon!"

Although it was not the first time that he saw His Majesty the Holy Dragon perched above the sun, after leaving the abyss and bathing in the glory of His Majesty the Holy Dragon once again, Spard had a completely different feeling.

Because His Majesty the Holy Dragon came for the Dragon and Lion's Fang Regiment, Spard has already felt the blessing from His Majesty. An endless supply of power has been poured into his body. Not only has his physical fatigue and negative states been expelled, but even his mental decadence and fighting spirit have been completely wiped out.

Although his armor was damaged and the sword in his hand was broken, this did not affect Spard's renewed strength on the battlefield.

As tougher and thicker dragon scales grew out from his skin, these biomass armors began to replace his magical armor that had lost most of its effectiveness.

Spard was not the only dragon man who received a gift. Every warrior who had persisted until this moment had received a blessing from the Dragon King. Not only did they receive an all-round promotion and enhancement in their bloodline, they were also granted with at least three or more spiritual words.

This resulted in scarlet flowers suddenly bursting out in the floating city that was about to be submerged, and the dragons launched a small-scale counterattack.

Although it seems that the final result will not be changed, more snake people will die because of this. But how could the descending existence tolerate such a scene?

The angry will of the Word Spirit, the Judgment Dragon King, turned into a shadow of death at this moment, covering the sky and the earth. Wherever it passed, all things were silent. Even the projection of the being known as the Sun-Winged Dragon was still dimmed after the light of judgment swept by.

"You actually control the sun here?"

The shadow of the Sun Snake, which was drifting like a candle in the wind, looked at the Dragon King spreading his wings in the sun with some surprise, with deep confusion and bewilderment in his eyes.
"When?"

Since He chose this border world as a target and a breakthrough point, he had naturally conducted an investigation. Although the followers of the Dragon King in front of him had already occupied the land of this world, at the level of rules, the will of this world did not favor any existence.

But the Dragon King in front of him did indeed use the sun to cast his will, and also used the power of the sun to condense his body. This power, without a doubt, could break through the limitations of the material world and was enough to rival the power of a true God.

It was because he had witnessed all of this that the Sun Snake did not understand how the dragon in front of him could do this. Could it be that he could make the world's will submit to him in an instant? But how could this be possible? Unless the Creator descended, who could make the world's will without self-awareness submit?

But since we all possess the power of the Creator, why do we need such a weak power from the material world?

"Let your real body ask."

Noah was too disdainful to compete with a projection of an incarnation. This projection of an incarnation was not as durable as the incarnation cast by the gods. The restrictions and rejections of the epic by the world will were far greater than those of the gods.

Therefore, after leaving behind a few words, Noah spread his wings and flew out from the sun. His majestic and sacred dragon body illuminated the sky and made the entire earth burn.

Although the Sun Serpent was still trying to fight back, Noah defeated the Sun Serpent incarnation at the moment of contact and swallowed up its remaining power.

"I see."

After swallowing the incarnation power of the Sun Serpent, Noah suddenly understood a lot in his mind. Why did this Sun Serpent use his name and make trouble when it was being hunted by his offspring and had to flee and dodge?

In the final analysis, there was only one reason: the sun snake wanted to eat him!
No matter how special the creatures in the secular world are, or how incredible their fortunes are, even if they obtain the skeleton of the Dragon King, it is impossible for them to be promoted by devouring the skeleton of the Dragon King.

But once you cross that threshold and become an eternal and immortal being, you can enhance your own foundation by devouring another immortal being, especially a being with the same origin, the conversion rate is even higher.

Nothing happens without reason in this world. The reason why the giant snake targeted him was because of this reason. In his eyes, Noah, who mastered the power of the sun and was promoted to the Dragon King according to the rules related to the sun, was his own kind, and his own kind was the most delicious and could add more flavor.

However, Noah did not know about this before, but now, Noah, who originally did not care much about this snake, naturally became interested.

Although he didn't think he needed to increase his foundation by devouring another epic immortal, this guy had already run in front of him and it would be a shame not to eat him.

No, that's not right. The reason why the big snake was so upset was probably because it made the decision after learning about the power he possessed. Because they both possessed similar powers of the same kind and origin, either He ate Noah, or Noah ate Him.

As for friendly exchanges and harmonious coexistence, just ask those who believe in gods: Are gods in the same field willing to coexist with gods one level weaker than themselves?

Any god only hopes that the gods in the same realm as himself will die and be reborn soon. Peaceful coexistence does not exist. It is most reassuring to hold power in one's own hands.

This is true for gods, and epics are no different. In fact, there should be no conflicts between epics. Even if they master the same rules and possess similar powers, this will not affect or hinder each other.

But the problem is that the idea of ​​increasing one's foundation by eating a being of the same origin is too tempting, because obtaining source power is too difficult.

So, I dare to ask, which epic dares to bet on the kindness of another strange epic?

"You can't escape!"

After learning the reasons for the Sun Wing Dragon's hostility and targeted behavior towards him, a faint appetite suddenly brewed in Noah's burning dragon eyes.

However, Noah quickly suppressed his growing appetite and cast his gaze towards the earth below. Through the portal of the void, the legions from the Setra Snake Empire were still being continuously transported in.

Although the commanders of the snake expeditionary force had discovered the changes in the sky and the great snake that protected them and guided them in the expedition had been defeated, a war of this scale could not be easily reversed or retreated at will.

then
roar~
roar~
roar~
The sun, which was originally brilliant because of Noah's will, began to gradually dim. When dim flares appeared on the sun, the sky and the earth were dark. However, in the darkness, a dragon roar sounded, and dark yellow air fell from the sun.

The Devil is Coming
Except for a very small number of snake people who noticed something, the vast majority of them were unaware of this. When the snake people began to swing their butcher knives at their compatriots, began to slaughter each other, and devour the corpses of their own kind, emotions of confusion emerged in the eyes of every snake person who witnessed this bloody and tragic scene. They completely did not understand what was happening.

It was not until the first Sovereign Demon Dragon tore open the bulging belly of a giant snake-man, manifested itself, and came into the world that the snake-men realized that this was a curse from the Dragon King on the snake-men.

But even if you know, what does it matter? There is no essential difference between being killed without knowing it and being used as food after seeing and understanding everything with great fear.

"Go, bring down the devil's calamity on these lowly reptiles!"

Without the support of the Great Snake, and witnessing the killing of their own kind, the snakemen who had just been teleported over could not withstand such an impact and turned around to become deserters. The Sky Demon Dragon also entered the world of snakemen...
