Transmigrating into a dragon clan experimental subject, is that even possible?

"Directly destroy the core?" Chu Zihang gripped the knife tightly and asked in a low voice.

“No, the enemy hasn’t shown themselves yet,” Tian said calmly. “Destroying the core is too direct; we need to confirm the Hermes family’s actions first.”

They remained hidden, waiting for their opportunity. The dark clouds gathered again, and the dragon's aura intensified, as if an even greater storm was brewing…

As time passed and the night deepened, the Hermes family's true plan gradually came to light in the valley.

As the night deepened, the stench of decay in the air grew stronger, as if the entire earth were preparing for some impending disaster.

Tian and Chu Zihang remained hidden in the shadows of the ancient building, their gazes fixed on the purple pillar of light, its intensity fluctuating with the energy of the runes. Clearly, the Hermes family was conducting some kind of ritual, and their key figure had yet to appear.

“This ruin is no ordinary place,” Chu Zihang said in a low voice, his hand gripping the hilt of his sword tightly, the blade gleaming faintly. “This place was once the center of the Dragon Clan. Their choice of this location as the site of their rituals must have had special significance.”

“That’s right, these runic ruins are still closely connected to the power of the dragons.” Tian calmly replied, his sharp gaze sweeping over the surroundings. “We must be even more careful; every rune here could be a trap.”

Suddenly, a deep incantation came from afar, and the energy fluctuations in the air intensified abruptly.

A group of black-robed priests slowly emerged from the central building of the ruins, holding runic staffs in their hands. Their steps were perfectly synchronized, as if they were performing some kind of mysterious ritual. The purple pillar of light grew brighter with the incantation, and the entire ruins were shrouded in an indescribable sense of oppression.

“The priests of the Hermes family,” Tian said coldly, his golden eyes flashing. “They are the core of this ritual and must be destroyed as soon as possible.”

“There aren’t many priests, but they’ve likely strengthened themselves through rune arrays,” Chu Zihang quickly analyzed, his knife trembling slightly as he prepared to strike at any moment. “You provide cover, I’ll destroy their magic array.”

Tian nodded, quickly cocked both pistols, and his golden eyes flashed with a cold light. "Move."

The two leaped swiftly from the shadows, their silhouettes almost imperceptible in the night. Chu Zihang's figure moved like a black lightning bolt, charging with incredible speed towards the center of the priesthood, while Tian rapidly deployed firepower on the flanks, precisely targeting the black-robed warriors approaching the altar, attempting to disrupt their defensive lines.

"Divine retribution!" Chu Zihang's low shout echoed through the night sky like thunder, and the blade, carrying the power of lightning, slashed fiercely towards the core of the rune array.

A blinding bolt of lightning streaked across the night sky, striking the runic pillar at the center of the altar. The priests were clearly unprepared for this attack; their staffs trembled, and the purple runic light suddenly became unstable.

"The rune energy fluctuations are weakening, continue to suppress them!" Tian said coldly, firing both guns at full power, bullets shooting towards the priests' defenses like meteors, successfully disrupting their spell rhythm.

"Stop them!" The priests were clearly aware of the crisis. One black-robed priest raised his staff and chanted ancient runes, trying to regain his power.

At the same time, more rune warriors poured out from all directions, guarding the altar and trying to stop Tian and Chu Zihang's attack.

The aura emanating from these rune warriors was even stronger than before, and their eyes flashed with purple light. They had clearly been completely controlled by the power of the dragons and had become exceptionally ferocious.

“These guys have been enhanced by the dragons,” Chu Zihang said coldly, a hint of chill flashing in his eyes. “We must speed things up.”

Tian moved swiftly, his golden eyes calmly analyzing every detail of the battlefield. "You go destroy the magic array, I'll deal with these warriors."

Chu Zihang said nothing, his blade flashing like lightning as he weaved through the enemy ranks, lightning and blade shadows intertwining, repelling the rune warriors who tried to stop him.

Each strike was aimed precisely at the enemy's vital points. Even with their enhanced strength, the rune warriors were still unable to withstand Chu Zihang's rapid attacks.

Tian Ze cleared a path for Chu Zihang, his dual pistols firing with unparalleled accuracy, suppressing the approaching enemies.

However, as more rune warriors emerged, the battle became increasingly complex. The priests also began to regain control of the magic circle, the purple light intensified once more, and the entire altar was enveloped in energy, as if about to unleash some even more terrifying power.

"We can't delay any longer!" Chu Zihang gritted his teeth, his eyes icy cold. "We must destroy the core of the magic array!"

Just then, the runes on the altar suddenly flashed with an even stronger light, and a deep roar echoed in the air.

A colossal undead dragon phantom slowly emerged from the runic array, its massive body like a monster that blotted out the sky, engulfing the entire altar. Crimson flames burned in its eyes, as if announcing its resurrection.

"Damn it, the priests have activated the power of the dragon undead!" Tian said in a low voice, a hint of tension in his eyes. "They are summoning the remaining power of the dragons through a magic circle!"

“This thing is even more troublesome than the previous undead.” Chu Zihang stared intently at the enormous phantom, his knife trembling slightly. “It seems we have to go all out.”

The dragon undead let out a deafening roar, and the energy fluctuations in the air suddenly intensified.

Runic light enveloped its massive body, and purple flames erupted from its mouth, instantly engulfing the entire battlefield. All the rune warriors seemed to gain even greater power, their attacks becoming increasingly ferocious, as if they were providing energy to the undead.

"These guys are channeling power to the undead!" Tian quickly realized the enemy's intentions and calmly analyzed, "We must prioritize defeating these rune warriors, otherwise we won't be able to fight the undead head-on!"

Chu Zihang nodded, his gaze icy. "I'll deal with these warriors. You go and hold off the undead!"

"Understood." Tian acted swiftly, unleashing full firepower with both guns, precisely aiming at the rune warriors' vital points, attempting to weaken their power.

At the same time, the dragon undead slowly approached the sky, their enormous phantoms shrouding the entire battlefield with an aura of destruction.

Each step seemed to carry an irresistible pressure, and purple flames continuously spewed from its mouth, burning everything around it.

Tian swiftly dodged, his golden eyes calmly capturing every movement of the undead, searching for its weakness.

He fired his dual pistols in succession, trying to hold back the undead's attack, but the undead's phantom was like an immortal being; the bullets pierced its body without causing any real damage.

"We must find its core!" Tian gritted his teeth, quickly assessing the situation. "This thing relies on rune arrays; as long as we destroy the core, its power will crumble!"

Chu Zihang's thunderous power swept across the battlefield, swiftly eliminating the rune warriors.

Each strike was accompanied by endless lightning, and rune warriors fell one after another, but their numbers seemed inexhaustible, as if the power of the dragons was continuously supporting them.

"These guys are endless!" Chu Zihang gritted his teeth, feeling anxious.

"Time is running out, the power of the dragon undead is constantly increasing!" Tian shouted a warning, cocking his twin pistols again, a cold light flashing in his golden eyes. "I'll hold off the undead, you continue to clear out the warriors!"

The battle reached a fever pitch; the roars of the undead were deafening, and the oppressive atmosphere in the air was palpable.

The oppressive feeling in the air grew stronger, as if the entire battlefield was gradually collapsing under the power of the undead.

Purple flames flickered in the darkness, and every step the undead took carried an aura of intense destruction. Rune warriors surged in from all directions, like undead puppets, providing support for the undead's power.

Tian unleashed the full power of his twin pistols, his golden eyes flashing with a cold light.

Every bullet he fired was aimed precisely at the rune warriors' vital points, but the enemy seemed endless; even when they were knocked down, new warriors would quickly take their place.

"They are constantly drawing energy from the dragons; we must find the source!" Tian cursed under his breath, a hint of anxiety flashing in his eyes.

This battle was far more difficult than they had imagined. If they continued to be held back by these rune warriors, the power of the dragon undead would become unstoppable.

“The rune warriors keep coming, and we’ll be exhausted if this continues.” Chu Zihang gasped for breath, his knife already stained with blood, but his eyes remained resolute. “You go and destroy the core of the magic circle first, and I’ll cover you.”

Tian nodded, a determined light flashing in his golden eyes. "Hit the target."
