Black Myth: The Legend of Tianpeng Seeking Demons

On the tranquil lakeside, the water ripples, reflecting the azure sky and lush forest.

A gentle breeze carries the fragrance of flowers, mingling with the fresh scent of the lake, creating a truly delightful experience.

Adrian rode the enormous frost dragon, soaring through the sky until it swooped down toward the lake, stirring up a gust of wind that rustled the leaves.

He dismounted from the dragon, his gaze sharp as he looked directly at Avril and Juckley, his voice deep and resonant, "Juckley, your golden bracers belong to us dragon knights!" His tone was serious, carrying an unquestionable authority.

Jukeli gazed at the majestic frost dragon, a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes. "Wow! This big guy is so cool!" he couldn't help but murmur in admiration, feeling a surge of excitement mixed with a touch of unease.

"You idiot, can't you be serious for once?" Little White's voice rang in Jukele's ear, tinged with anxiety. "Now is not the time to admire the scenery! That dragon knight is up to no good. You'd better think of a way to get out of here!"

Juckley shrugged helplessly, turned to look at Avril, only to find her staring coldly at Adrian, her eyes full of determination and defiance, as if she were defending herself.

“Adrian, I’ve already said it, I won’t give the bracers to anyone! This artifact is for commanding the dragons of Dragon Lake. Only with it can I fight the dark mage and reclaim everything I’ve lost!”

“You’re wrong, Avril,” Adrian said firmly, his brow furrowed. “You have no idea of ​​the true power of this artifact! It can guide dragons, but if it is used incorrectly, the consequences will be unimaginable!”

"So what?" Avril sneered, a disdainful smirk playing on her lips. "I don't care about anything as long as I can get revenge!" Her voice was filled with a chilling hatred, as if that was her only motivation.

Looking into her hateful eyes, Adrian felt a deep sense of worry. "Avril, I don't want to see you consumed by hatred; you'll lose even more if you do." He tried to remain calm, wanting to awaken the kindness within her.

"Enough!" Avril interrupted him angrily, her eyes icy. "I have no interest in you!" She turned to leave, and Juckley quickly followed, his heart filled with conflict.

Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed from afar, as if the earth itself trembled. Adrian and Avril both stopped in their tracks, their hearts tightening with worry.

"It's that fire dragon!" Adrian's expression changed drastically, his eyes narrowed, and his voice was urgent. "It's back!"

He rode his frost dragon swiftly toward the direction from which the sound came. Juckley and Avril looked up and saw a young fire dragon swooping down from the sky, as if proclaiming destruction. The dragon bared its fangs and claws, spewing forth raging flames that instantly engulfed the village, turning houses and farmland to ashes in a flash.

"Damn it!" Avril gritted her teeth, her face filled with anger and anxiety. "It's attacking the village again!"

“We have to stop it!” Juckley said anxiously, preparing to unleash his Nine-Toothed Rake, but Avril stopped him, her gaze unwavering.

“You don’t need to do it,” she said in a deep voice. “I’ll do it myself!”

She brandished her magic wand, concentrating all her power to unleash a powerful magical attack on the fire dragon. The icy blue light sliced ​​through the air and struck the dragon directly.

The fire dragon was struck, letting out a painful wail as its body tumbled through the air, some of its blazing flames being extinguished.

However, the fire dragon did not back down, but angrily retaliated, spewing out a ball of scorching flames. Avril hurriedly cast a protective spell, and a blue light shield formed in front of her, blocking the attack of the flames. The shield trembled slightly under the impact.

"Well done, keep attacking!" Jukeli encouraged from the side, though he was also filled with tension. His heart was pounding, knowing full well how difficult this battle would be.

Just then, Adrian swooped down from the sky on his frost dragon, his deep roar piercing the air and bringing a gust of cold wind. He used the dragon's power to attack the fire dragon, and the aura of frost instantly swept in all directions.

"Look at you, aren't you scared yet!" Adrian mocked Juckley, his gaze sharp as a knife. "Are you just going to stand by and watch?"

“Who said I’m scared?” Jukeli retorted defiantly, gritting his teeth. “I’m just… looking for an opportunity!” He thought to himself, this situation is too dangerous, how can I get involved?

Just then, the young fire dragon suddenly turned to Jukli, opened its huge mouth and spewed out flames. Jukli hurriedly dodged, the flames grazing his body, the scorching heat making him feel a sense of fear and suffocation.

"Watch out, you idiot!" Avril shouted, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes.

Juklee was terrified. In his panic, he accidentally activated the power of the golden bracers. A powerful energy surged into his body, and he felt a strange connection between himself and the young fire dragon.

"Roar!" Juklee tentatively let out a dragon's roar. To everyone's surprise, the young fire dragon stopped its attack, turned its head to look at him, and its eyes were full of doubt and curiosity.

"What...what's going on?" Jukeli said in surprise, his mind filled with disbelief. "I...I think I can control it!"

He tried to control the young fire dragon with his mind, a mixture of anxiety and excitement coursing through him. He silently chanted, "Come here!"

The young fire dragon actually flew towards Juklee and temporarily stopped its attack. Juklee was thrilled and exclaimed, "That's awesome! I can actually control a dragon!"

Avril and Adrian were both stunned. They hadn't expected Juckley to master the power of the Golden Wrist so quickly. To wield this power, one not only needed to possess powerful magic, but also to be able to skillfully chant the secret incantations of the Dragon Knight race.

"Who...who exactly are you?" Avril asked, her eyes filled with shock and confusion.

“I…I’m just an ordinary bard,” Juklee replied with a smile, his heart filled with pride. “Perhaps…it was this artifact that gave me the power.”

"An ordinary bard? I think he's even more powerful than us dragon knights!" Adrian sneered, his tone full of disdain. "Stop holding back and lend a hand!"

Jukeli curled his lip and retorted, "You really are stupid! I was almost burned to a crisp just now, and you expect me to rush up there right now?"

“You’re a brave bard, aren’t you?” Adrian teased, his eyes gleaming with anticipation. “Go quickly, lest the dragon’s flames burn our village to ashes!”

Jukli took a deep breath. "Dragon's Command!" he shouted, his golden bracers radiating a dazzling light, as if in response to his call. His voice carried an unprecedented confidence, guiding the young fire dragon in its direction.

The young fire dragon was suppressed by Jukli's power, letting out a painful roar, and the surrounding air became scorching and distorted due to the violent magical impact.

"Avril! Don't give it a chance to breathe! It will continue to attack the village!" Adrian roared, his frost dragon circling in the air, ready to deliver the fatal blow at any moment.

Avril nodded, her fighting spirit ignited. She waved her magic wand, and the icy blue light shone out once more, striking the young fire dragon.

The fire dragon struggled to escape, but Jukli's command was like an invisible thread, firmly pulling it along.

"Don't let it escape! Go all out!" Adrian shouted, his excitement almost overflowing.

The fire dragon let out a deep roar, its body forced to twist, heading straight for Avril's attack.

A decisive glint flashed in Avril's eyes. She seized the opportunity and forcefully pointed her magic wand at the fire dragon. Instantly, a huge beam of frost swept out like a frozen river in winter, heading straight for the fire dragon's heart.

The fire dragon was struck, and the intense pain caused it to roll angrily, scattering flames everywhere.

"Now!" Adrian's voice pierced through the clamor as he swooped down, ready to deliver the final blow. The frost dragon's wings sliced ​​through the air, whipping up a biting wind, and it instantly reached above the fire dragon, unleashing a wall of frost from its mouth.

As flames and frost clashed violently, a piercing sound erupted in the air. The fire dragon was struck twice over, and in an instant, anger and fear intertwined. Its body trembled under the combined attack of frost and fire, and finally lost the ability to resist, roaring painfully to the sky.

Its body was torn apart by the instantaneous energy, gradually turning into countless points of light, dissipating into the air, and becoming a stillness.

After the battle, the lakeside returned to tranquility, with only a gentle breeze rippling the water's surface.

Juklee breathed a sigh of relief, "We did it!"

Avril and Adrian exchanged a smile.

As the sunlight gradually pierced through the thick clouds, warm and bright light shone down on them.

Juklee raised his arm, and the golden bracers gleamed brilliantly in the sunlight.

The light illuminated everything around him, enveloping Juklee in a mysterious and majestic glow.

At that moment, Juklee appeared as if a god of war had descended to earth, his figure towering and imposing in the sunlight.

He gripped a sharp longsword tightly in his hand, its blade gleaming with a cold light, complementing the golden bracers and exuding an unparalleled domineering aura.
