The Red Emperor's dragon flame possesses a special ability: continuous burning that blocks self-healing. No matter how fiercely Zidi resists, he is gradually consumed, leaving nothing behind.
[Successfully killed Zilong! Congratulations to the host for getting 1000 killing points!]
When Zach saw the system prompt, he was certain that the Purple Emperor had fallen, completely wiped out. Now it was his turn to take action. In an instant, he appeared before the barely surviving Zidi and began extracting it! Call!
Just to ensure he didn't miss an important opportunity, Zach acted swiftly.
[Extracting...]
[Extraction successful! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill Transformation Dragon, strength attribute +100, defense attribute +100, speed attribute +50, spell power +80!]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill of transforming into a dragon, automatically upgrading to SSS-level dragon transformation!]
[Calling...]
[Successful summoning! Congratulations to the host for obtaining Zilong·Zidi!]
After seeing the system notification, Zidi was summoned from Zach's shadow. Despite anticipating this, Qin Lu was still stunned. To think that after executing such brutal tactics to defeat the enemy, Zach could then "resurrect" them for his own use.
This ability only deepened Qin Lu's awe for Zach. She realized, even more firmly, that while she might not be able to partner with him, she absolutely could not afford to become his enemy. The only possible outcome would be death.
Looking around at the five-headed dragon, the Red Emperor, and the Flame Dragon it had summoned, as well as now the Purple Emperor, Zach couldn't help but think how much more interesting this would be if dragons had a better understanding of expressions like humans.
Dragon form!
The roar of the dragons was deafening, the sound so intense that it forced Qin Lu to stagger back several steps. The fierce wind mixed with sharp ice fragments was so dangerous that it could tear her clothes and cut into her skin, causing fresh blood to spill.
She quickly raised her hands to shield herself, accepting the fact that her arms would bear more scars than her face.
Boom!
Her back slammed against the stone door, pain evident in her face.
If the dragon battles she'd witnessed earlier were the epitome of a godly struggle, then this was a stark reminder of why mortals suffer when gods fight.
With great difficulty, she opened her eyes, activating her system's virtual panel. She quickly located the anti-riot shield and drew it out, gripping it tightly with both hands to protect herself.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of sharp ice shards striking the shield relentlessly caused Qin Lu's body to tremble. She realized she could do nothing to assist, merely struggling to maintain her position.
Through the observation window of the shield, she saw Zach, calm and unshaken amidst the chaos, his presence an image of strength and composure. Qin Lu couldn't help but deeply admire him.
In her mind, the term "strong man" was specifically created for Zach—truly no exaggeration.
"Let it, shut up." Zach commanded the three dragons.
The Purple Emperor, too, assumed dragon form. Four massive dragons charged ahead, unaffected by the biting wind and sharp ice, their scales impenetrable.
The five-headed dragon led the charge, unleashing a barrage of fire, frost, and high-pressure water jets at the White Emperor.
Meanwhile, the Red Emperor utilized the same strategy it used against the Purple Emperor, working with the Flame Dragon to sink its teeth into the White Emperor's neck and inject fire poison.
Boom!
Zidi soared into the air, slamming into the White Emperor with the force of a mountain, pinning it down. With relentless strength, Zidi's jaws tore into the White Emperor's wings, and its head was bashed apart!
The pain was excruciating, as evidenced by the White Emperor's agonizing roar, echoing with grief. The air was filled with splattered dragon blood, splashing like ink.
Qin Lu noticed that her arms, exposed to the bitter cold wind and the shield's observation window, were slowly being covered with frost, turning silver-white as the ice spread rapidly.
Each time the Purple Emperor tore off another wing from the White Emperor, the White Emperor's roars intensified, and the ice spread faster, thicker, and colder.
Soon, all four dragon wings were ripped from the White Emperor's body. Surrounded by the relentless onslaught of the four dragons, the White Emperor was on the brink of death, crumpling into a pool of blood.
Zach stepped forward, coming face-to-face with the White Emperor's head. Blood poured from the tightly shut mouth, signaling its last moments.
He raised his fire knife, preparing to end it himself.
Hmm?
He paused suddenly, as though hearing something faintly.
"Begging for mercy?" Zach muttered, uncertain.
He considered asking the Purple and Red Emperors for a translation, but neither responded. Perhaps dragons didn't even speak human language.
He shrugged it off, unwilling to waste time.
Crisis sensing!
Puchi!
Sensing the White Emperor's final struggle, Zach's blade, wreathed in flames, plunged into its head, twisting with brutal force.
Boom! Boom!
Flames pierced through the White Emperor's skull!
[Successfully killed the white dragon! Congratulations to the host for getting 1000 killing points!]
The last hope of the three dragons, the White Emperor, was finally extinguished.
[Extracting...]
[Extraction successful! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill Cold Wind Realm! Magic Power +150, Magic Defense +100, Strength +50, Speed +50!]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill Cold Wind Realm, automatically upgrading to SSS-level Cold Wind Realm!]
[Calling...]
[Successful summoning! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the White Dragon and White Emperor!]
At this point, all three dragons had surrendered to Zach.
The knight knelt before him, slowly sinking into the shadow world.
[Successful kill! Congratulations to the host for getting the clearance package!]
Seeing the system notification, Qin Lu realized the battle had finally ended.
She released the anti-riot shield, now completely frozen, and stood in place.
Standing up, crack! Crack!
The thick ice on her body shattered and fell away in chunks.
"Win..." Despite witnessing the victory firsthand, Qin Lu still couldn't quite believe it.
It had been far easier than she had imagined.
She had once thought she might die here...
Zach glanced at the time—three minutes left before midnight.
With a single click, he stored the dragon corpses in his bag.
"Goodbye." He glanced at Qin Lu briefly before exiting the Tower of Trials.
Qin Lu followed suit, confirming her exit.
"..."
When she got home, she collapsed onto her bed, still numb, unable to process what had just happened.
"How is he so strong?" The battle played out like a movie in her mind.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt overwhelmed, unable to control her emotions.
Clutching the pillow, she tossed and turned.
Meanwhile, Zach returned to his RV, sinking into the sofa to enjoy Miria's leg massage.
To his surprise, he hadn't expected her to be so skilled.
Her small expression was intense, and her technique was surprisingly professional.
As the clock struck twelve...
[Tianbang and Dibang will be announced soon. Do you want to check it?]
Zach selected yes without hesitation.
