Chapter 399: The Schemed Cangxue Dragon King
The girl has fair and delicate skin, blue pupils, and icy blue hair that reaches her waist. She is extremely beautiful. The only pity is that her emotions have never fluctuated much and are always cold and icy.
Esther, the Blue Snow Dragon King, is said to be the offspring of the original dragon and a god. She inherited the power of both parents and is the undisputed number one in the sequence. Once, two powerful sequence masters teamed up to challenge her but were easily defeated by her. Since then, no one has dared to question the value of the number one in the sequence.
When Barbatos invaded the world, the first thing he learned was the information about the powerful sequencers. Naturally, the first in sequence was the focus of his attention.
In order to solve the big trouble of the Cangxue Dragon King first, Barbatos opened the door to the demon world at all costs and summoned two capable subordinates, Ergal and Lesar. These two are the highest-level demons after Barbatos. They are powerful and extremely insidious.
Ergal is good at playing with people's hearts, a bit like the evil god Zora. He likes to slowly torture his enemies into physical and mental despair. The vampire clan was destroyed in his hands.
Lessar is a pure assassin who has been lurking in the darkness and is good at sneak attacks and assassinations. The wound on the Tree of Life was caused by him, and his shadow once shrouded the entire Elfland.
Barbatos was not a man of courage but strategy. As the son of the Demon King, he was also extremely intelligent. After some investigation, he prioritized the Snow Dragon King. He ordered Ergal and Lessar to take out the famous dragon-slaying sword 'Asgalon' from the Demon King's treasury.
After setting numerous traps, Barbatos deliberately spread the word that he wanted to have a one-on-one fight with the Blue Snow Dragon King, which attracted Esther's arrival. Victora, who was also a dragon king, was worried about problems and followed him secretly.
As expected, the scene that Victora was most worried about happened. Barbatos had no intention of fighting Esther head-on. After a few rounds of fighting, he pretended to be defeated to lower Esther's vigilance. Then Ergal and Lessar suddenly rushed out with the Dragon Slaying Sword and unexpectedly hit Esther hard.
The dragon-slaying sword 'Asgalon' has great lethality to dragons, and a slight touch can cause great damage. Esther was stabbed through by 'Asgalon' due to a moment of negligence, and was seriously injured on the spot, losing her combat effectiveness.
Seeing that Esther was about to fall to the demons, Victora, who had been watching secretly, suddenly appeared and rescued Esther with the space magic "Dimension Teleportation" prepared in advance. Before leaving, he used the magic item left to him by his father on the top demon Lessar to release the legendary magic "Dimension Cutting". Unfortunately, Lessar, as the strongest assassin in the demon world, was extremely sensitive to space fluctuations and avoided the fatal blow. Only one arm was chopped off and the dragon-slaying magic sword was lost.
Victora also knew that he couldn't fight three people alone, so he took away "Asgallon" and ran away.
Esther was seriously injured and unable to participate in the next battle. She could only return to Dragon Island to recuperate. The Dragon Slaying Sword was indeed worthy of its reputation. It could cause great trauma even to the body of a Dragon King. Moreover, ordinary healing magic had no effect on the injuries caused by it. She could only rely on herself to heal slowly.
By the time Esther recovered from the wound of the magic sword and rushed out aggressively, the war was over. Barbatos was forced to retreat, more than half of the strong men in the sequence died, the true ancestor of the vampire died, the Golden Lion King died, and her two best friends, the Black and White Dragon King, also died.
In extreme grief and self-blame, Esther came to the eternal snow region at the edge of the world, intending to seal herself and fall into eternal loneliness. However, she was worried that powerful enemies would still appear in the future, so she gave the awakening method to only Christine, and asked her not to wake her up unless she met an irresistible enemy. She voluntarily sunk in the ice and snow forever.
This is the story of Wei Esther, the first blue snow dragon in the sequence.
This time, for the sake of Moria and others, Christine had to bite the bullet and come here to ask Esther for help, but she had also thought of a reason. After all, the Nether Bone Dragon Knight was also an extremely dangerous enemy to the world.
But Christine didn't expect that Esther had been deliberately losing her power for so many years. If she had come a little later, she might have died from exhaustion of magic power.
Even if she is awakened in advance, Esther is no longer the Blue Snow Dragon King of the past. Her current strength is probably only slightly stronger than that of an ordinary sequence powerhouse, which is completely incomparable to her heyday a thousand years ago.
Christine did not deliberately hide anything, and told everything she knew about the Dark Demon Realm, the three-headed evil dragon, the Nether Bone Dragon Knight, and even the Fountain of Life and Death, and begged for Esther's help. "That's about it, Mr. Luo Qiu will help contain the Nether Bone Dragon Knight, but the three-headed evil dragon will require at least five sequence masters to deal with it, so I can only ask for your help." Christine said calmly.
"Ghost Bone Dragon Knight..."
When Esther heard that the Nether Bone Dragon Knight could kill the Ten-Winged Fallen Angel with one shot, her expressionless expression finally showed a hint of surprise, but it quickly disappeared.
Esther looked towards Luo Qiu, a strange blue light flashed in her beautiful eyes, as if she had used some kind of detecting magic, but Luo Qiu had the 'Heaven-Covering Divine Ring' in his hand, and she couldn't see through him at all with her now greatly reduced strength.
Seeing this, Meng Li's magic power slowly surged in his body, and there was more hostility in his eyes when he looked at Esther.
Christine grabbed Meng Li's little hand and shook her head gently at her.
"You are dangerous." Esther said to Luo Qiu.
"So what?" Luo Qiu smiled.
"I want to monitor you." Esther gave an answer that left everyone speechless.
……
Esther finally agreed to Christine's request and agreed to go to the "Dark Demon Realm" together, but she made a request that she would act as a monitor for Luo Qiu, the "dangerous element". Luo Qiu himself didn't care, anyway, he was confident that nothing would be discovered. Meng Li was defeated by Christine's earnest gaze and agreed that after Esther returned, she could return to the Kendenia Empire with them.
All in all, although there were some minor twists and turns along the way, this short journey to the Ten Thousand Years Snowland still achieved its goal. Luo Qiu tore the space apart again, and it took most of the day for the group of four to return to the Elf Country.
"I'm finally back." Meng Li breathed in the sweet air of the Elf Land, with a hint of intoxication on her pretty face.
Christine pursed her red lips and smiled.
"That damn place, the Ten Thousand Years Snow Region, is so depressing. I really don't know how you managed to stay there for thousands of years." Meng Li stretched and said lazily.
Esther's eyes dimmed, and her voice was so low that it could not be heard: "That is my atonement."
Even after so many years, she still couldn't let it go.
