Chapter 215: The Proud Golden Dragon
Chapter 215: The Proud Golden Dragon
Not only Seth and Harvey encountered the attack of the remains of the gods, but the rest of the teams that came in also basically confronted the remains of the gods.
On Austin's side, together with Sophia and Augustus, after entering the Tomb of the Gods, they also noticed the remains of a thousand-meter-wide giant dragon in the distance. Since the team was composed of dragons, Augustus rushed there without thinking.
When passing by an island, he was attacked by the remains of a god that had just awakened.
These are the remains of a god who looks like a female, holding a longbow and wearing a hunting coat made of unknown animal skin.
Moreover, her strength was even stronger than the one that Seth and Harvey encountered. The arrows she shot directly blocked the sky completely. If she was not eliminated, the three dragons of Austin would never be able to leave here.
In desperation, Augustus could only temporarily give up going to the dragon's remains and first deal with the enemies in front of him.
After a fierce battle, the three dragons of Austin were barely defeated when the island below was shattered by the battle.
After dealing with the remains of the god, just like what Seth and Harvey encountered before, a memory appeared in their minds. At the same time, the knowledge that the remains of the god had before their death, which was the cornerstone of their becoming a god, also floated in front of them.
Although the three Austin dragons were badly injured in this battle, Augustus, who contributed the most, decided the distribution of this knowledge.
Augustus had the arrogance of a golden dragon. Although he knew that he had to collect enough knowledge to become a god, after taking a look at the specific information of this knowledge, he did not intend to take it.
In his opinion, the most powerful knowledge is needed.
This knowledge is called hunting, and the remains of the previous god are the goddess of hunting.
Looking at the knowledge floating in front of them, Austin and Sophia looked at each other, and Austin took the lead in pushing this knowledge to Sophia before Sophia spoke.
"Hunting knowledge is useless to me, you take it."
The reason why Austin gave the knowledge to Sophia was not because he was a bootlicker... Well, okay, there might be some reason, but not much. The most important reason was that as he said, the knowledge of hunting was really useless to him.
To be more specific, the main reason why Austin entered the Tomb of the Gods was because of Sophia. As for learning that one can become a god by collecting knowledge, it didn't matter to him at all.
Although he is an arrogant red dragon, Austin is also self-aware. First, he just wants to be a giant dragon lying in a mountain of gold coins counting money. Second, he has no intention of becoming a god at all.
Seeing that Austin said so, Sophia did not refuse and accepted this knowledge about hunting.
After Sophia accepted it, they both looked at Augustus, waiting for his next move.
Although they had successfully dealt with the remains of the gods, the three of them had indeed suffered considerable injuries. Even if they could continue to explore, the risks would certainly increase exponentially. If Augustus insisted on continuing to explore the tomb of the gods, they would have no objection.
Noticing that their eyes were focused on him, Augustus glanced at the injuries on their bodies and couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"I said I would act alone. Now I have to wait for you to recover."
Although he was complaining, Augustus still planned to stop and rest, and cast healing magic to heal Austin and Sophia.
Looking at Augustus's actions, Austin couldn't help but roll his eyes and complained in his heart that his words were insincere. After all, he saw the concern in Augustus's eyes just now.
If we use the words in the novel to describe Augustus, he would be called tsundere, which is a very fitting description for Jin Long's personality.
But Austin is not some yellow-haired prince, and Augustus is not some stupid old man, so Austin never likes Augustus's character.
After resting, Austin Sanlong continued on his journey.
In another space, Plague quietly watched everything that happened inside the God's Tomb on the screen.
On one side was Famine, who was half-crippled and trapped by tentacles, completely unable to move even for a moment, and War, who had completely lost his mind.
"You are indeed a thief who never leaves empty-handed. I finally understand why the war between gods was so brutal."
Hearing Famine's ridicule, Plague shook his tentacles and said nonchalantly, "Why do you say that? I don't remember that I was the one who started the God War."
"Are you still hiding it?"
Famine narrowed his eyes, and the dense power of chaos around him could not help but start to riot, trying to break free of the tentacles that trapped him in his last struggle, but it was all in vain. When the power of chaos came into contact with the tentacles, it was like a drop in the ocean, disappearing without a trace.
Seeing this, Plague's words remained calm.
"Do you think that after you get this power, you can escape from my control? Or do you think you can resist me by joining forces with War?"
Famine stared at the plague for a long time, and finally gave up the struggle helplessly.
"Very good, it seems you have given up." Plague said with a hint of ridicule: "After you accepted the knowledge from Chaos, you should know that this great power cannot be countered by your little tricks, even if you bring him with you."
Hearing this, Famine's pupils hidden in the mist suddenly shrank.
Plague chuckled at his shocked look.
"That dragon was indeed an unexpected event in my plan, and I didn't expect that he also possessed the power of chaos. But it doesn't matter, right? You now know the entire plan, and it can't be stopped. Who do you think can change this?"
"Mad man, I shouldn't have believed you in the first place."
"It's your own greed that ruined you. Who can you blame?"
They had previously speculated many possible plans of Famine and War for the Plague, and knew that they could not stop it with their own abilities, so they had already begun to have thoughts of retreating, which was why they had gone to find Ronnie before.
But after the God's Tomb was opened, Plague no longer hid and told all of its plans to Famine and War.
Famine and War also tried to stop Plague's crazy plan, but the end result was that War's mindset was wiped out on the spot, leaving only a body no different from death, while Famine was also seriously injured and would soon follow in War's footsteps.
The tentacles that bound Famine gradually increased in number, slowly wrapping him up, while at the same time destroying his thoughts.
At the last moment before his death, Famine wanted to utter one last harsh word, but Plague was not like him and would completely wipe out his remaining thoughts.
Looking at the famine and war that had left only the bodies and souls of the people before them, Plague could not help but shake his head, as if expressing regret.
"You should have known long ago that resistance is useless, so why not accept it calmly? Perhaps in the end, you will still be able to retain a trace of thought to witness the advent of greatness."
