I am the Holy Poisoner, the Empress advised me to calm down

A glimmer of hope arose in Leon's heart: "Was this... done by the girl who just went in?" He immediately ordered his men to continue to restrain the dragon and try to contact the girl's location.

Finally, in the silence that followed the chaos, that brave figure emerged again. "Everyone, come and help..." Although exhausted, she straightened her back and stood up.

The onlookers couldn't help but sigh with admiration: "Wow, this is truly admirable! This little girl actually managed to destroy the enemy's heart!"

Aiden quickly ran to her side and asked with concern, "Are you okay? Take a rest, and leave the rest to us!"

The girl smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, I can still fight... After all, this is our common goal."

After saying this, she readjusted her posture and gazed forward with a resolute gaze. "Next, I'm going to defeat this guy no matter what!" She spoke her inner resolve firmly.

Thus, with everyone's joint efforts, the ultimate battle against the most vicious enemy in history is about to begin. At this moment, no one knows where the future will lead; all they know is that they will fight hand in hand until the last moment arrives...

"For our home, our families, our loved ones, and our dreams!" Aiden shouted, leading all the soldiers in a decisive attack on the dark behemoth. "Forward! Let us write our own glorious chapter!"

The battle horn had sounded, and everyone was ready to face the challenges ahead, no matter what fate held. The courage and unity demonstrated in this moment became a legend, passed down through the ages. The battle reached a fever pitch, every moment filled with unpredictable tension. The dragon, emanating a black aura, roared, and each flap of its massive wings whipped up a fierce hurricane, shattering the surrounding ground and buildings. Though the warriors fought with all their might, they were still utterly insignificant in the face of such a formidable foe.

Leon gritted his teeth, his sword flashing brightly. "Everyone, defend! Protect the healing team!" He shouted, commanding his teammates to adopt a more stable formation to resist the dragon's attack. Suddenly, a golden beam struck the dragon's body from a distance, causing it to roar in pain. Looking back, Leah leaped high into the air, her sword gathering mighty power once again, preparing for a second attack.

"She's so amazing..." exclaimed a young apprentice in the crowd, "She's like the goddess of the dawn has truly descended!"

A little girl nearby grabbed her brother's arm and asked, "Can I win? This monster looks so fierce."

"I can do it." The boy answered confidently, clenching his fists to cheer for Leah.

Just as the dragon was distracted by its injuries, the young woman finally returned to the group, bearing news of victory. "The core has been severely damaged! Now is the time to strike a fatal blow!" she cried, breathlessly. Though her strength had reached its limit, her indomitable spirit still moved everyone.

Aiden was cheered up after hearing this: "Did everyone hear that? This is our chance to fight back! Gavin! Are you ready for your ultimate skill?"

"Of course! I've been waiting for this moment!" Gavin responded. He then grasped his axe with both hands and began to gather strength. The surrounding air seemed to be drawn in, forming a small vortex around him, signaling the immense power he was about to unleash.

The onlookers retreated to safe places, feeling a mixture of nervousness and excitement. "This is so exciting... I hope they can really defeat this terrifying monster."

Just when Gavin was making a full effort, the originally dark and starless sky was suddenly illuminated by several strange rays of light, which gradually converged into a huge rune mark hanging above the battlefield.

"What's going on?" Aiden frowned.

Then, an old voice resounded through the heavens and the earth: "Young people... you have done well. Now it is time for an old man like me to help end this."

Everyone looked up in the direction where the sound came from, only to see an old man in plain cloth standing at the edge of the battlefield. The pressure he exuded made everything around him seem to stop for a few seconds.

The dragon sensed the danger and stopped attacking, turning to stare at the new enemy. It angrily demanded, "Who are you?! Anyone who dares to interfere in the affairs of our people must die!"

The old man smiled faintly and didn't answer directly. Instead, he extended his hand and gestured. The mysterious symbol floating in the sky immediately transformed into dozens of beams of light and shot towards the opponent. At the same time, Gavin's attack landed on the same point...

The light produced by the violent collision made it impossible for everyone present to look directly. When everything settled down, the giant dragon was seen lying on the ground, struggling continuously, but eventually it slowly lost its vitality until it was completely motionless.

"Success..." Leon said with a sigh of relief. But the next moment, everyone's attention turned to the unknown old man - because he looked very tired and even showed signs of falling...

"Senior, are you alright?" Aiden quickly stepped forward to support the old man and asked. The old man waved his hand to indicate that he was fine. "It's okay, it's okay... I just used a very powerful move and I'm feeling a little unwell..."

Everyone around was surprised and started talking to each other: "So there's a hidden big shot...", "It's amazing that they could even deal with such a powerful enemy..."

The old man smiled, looked at the people around him, then turned to the protagonists and spoke seriously: "Alright... Although the crisis has been temporarily resolved, you still have many tasks to complete in the future. Remember today's experience and lessons and strive to become stronger!"

After saying this, he slowly disappeared from the spot, leaving behind only a gentle and mysterious figure that people could not forget for a long time.

Just as everyone was immersed in the excitement of victory, in an inconspicuous corner, a little boy with deep eyes watched everything thoughtfully, a strange smile on his face. No one noticed his abnormality...

The little boy whispered to himself, "The game... has just begun..." With the old man's mysterious disappearance, the atmosphere on the battlefield lightened considerably, but everyone seemed to have an inexplicable sense of strangeness in their hearts. Although they had temporarily resolved the immediate crisis, they realized that this was only the tip of the iceberg.

"Thank you for your hard work! Let's clean up the scene quickly and count the losses. We need to make sure everyone is safe." As the leader, Leon stepped forward again and began to deploy follow-up matters.
