Chapter 372 - A Shocking Secret
Chapter 372: A Shocking Secret
Therefore, Klein shook his head.
“I just want to know the answer. Tell me, what is the secret here?”
“Furthermore, this place has been abandoned for a long time. Even if I didn’t come, perhaps you would have died sooner or later.”
Klein had long noticed that the chains on the Poison Dragon’s body weren’t right.
Was this something they did to tame him?
The Poison Dragon’s body had penetrated by more than a hundred of chains.
They had almost completely bound the Poison Dragon.
Under such circumstances, the fact that the Poison Dragon could release magic could only mean that the dragon was too angry.
If it was a human or a slightly weaker crypt creature, their bodies would’ve long been chilled to the bone.
And most importantly, the chains were still absorbing the Poison Dragon’s magic.
This was also the reason why the durability of such a massive Poison Dragon was so low.
If it had been a Poison Dragon in its entire body, Klein wouldn’t have been a match for it.
Clearly, there was a secret behind this that Klein didn’t know.
And it was very likely that it was related to the entire catacombs world.
Therefore, Klein held back.
“Human, change the question. You don’t want to know the answer.”
The Poison Dragon spoke again, but this time, its voice seemed to be much softer.
“Tell me. Not only will I tell you the answer, I’ll also let you leave this godforsaken place,” Klein said again.
His words weren’t groundless.
The Endless Sword in his hand could definitely cut through the chains on its body.
As for how to make it leave?
Klein had his own plans. Perhaps, if he was lucky, he could take in a mount.
After all, as Klein’s enemies grew stronger, the size of the catacomb also gradually increased. It was time to prepare a mount for himself.
“Leave? With just you? You don’t know how powerful that Lord is,” the Poison Dragon said tirelessly.
Although it said so on the surface, the Poison Dragon’s heart still jumped fiercely.
Freedom!
This was a dream that it had been dreaming of, and it couldn’t even sleep at night.
If it could leave this place, why would it still guard here for thousands of years?
However, if that was the case, there would probably be even greater trouble.
Thus, the Poison Dragon couldn’t make up its mind.
“No! You’re wrong. It’s because of the divine weapon in my hand. This sword is enough to let you out.”
“As for the Lord you spoke of…”
“Ridiculous! He chained you here like a dog, and you even addressed him as Lord. How interesting. Could it be that the legendary pride of the dragon race is fake?”
After Klein said that.
The Poison Dragon’s eyes immediately turned red.
It would have been fine if it was itself, but he had actually mentioned the dragon race!
Was the dragon race was something that a puny human could judge?
With this thought in mind, the Poison Dragon roared at Klein, expressing its dissatisfaction.
But at the same time, it began to carefully consider Klein’s suggestion.
It couldn’t help but think to itself, ‘Indeed, that Lord hasn’t appeared for decades. It’s very likely that he’s no longer around, or he’s already fallen. In any case, he definitely doesn’t care about this place, so why should I be afraid?’
‘And this cunning human seems to be right! Why did he tie me up here? Does he really think of me as a dog?’
‘Darn it, I’m a great dragon! How could he dare?!’
With that thought in mind, the Poison Dragon’s breathing grew heavier.
Klein took in the Poison Dragon’s behavior.
He knew that the other party was moved by his suggestion.
Indeed.
Klein’s suggestion might be nothing to others.
But to the Poison Dragon in front of him, it was very attractive.
On one hand, it was freedom, and on the other hand, it was the pride of the dragon race. Those weren’t things that the Poison Dragon could resist.
However, it wasn’t enough now!
Because the person who restrained the Poison Dragon was definitely not simple.
So powerful that even after so many years, the Poison Dragon didn’t dare to betray him in the slightest.
Thinking of this, Klein couldn’t help but think of the energy shield of the previous world.
Could it be… a person?
‘Forget it, let’s not think too much about it! No matter what kind of enemy it is, it’s not something I can deal with right now.’
After thinking for a while, Klein shook his head and looked at the Poison Dragon again.
“How long do you want to stay here? Ten years, a hundred years, a thousand years? Perhaps even you won’t live that long? Do you want to be restricted here for the rest of your life and become a watchdog?”
Klein’s words struck the Poison Dragon’s heart.
Instantly, the gigantic Poison Dragon’s eyes lit up as it stared at Klein.
In the end, it seemed to accept Klein’s suggestion and sighed.
“Alright, human, you’ve moved me. I’ll tell you the secrets of this place, but you have to promise to let me out.”
Klein nodded.
After receiving the promise, the Poison Dragon began to speak.
“You are very sharp. There are indeed secrets hidden here, and they are extremely huge.”
“You must have discovered the strangeness of the first level when you came down from above, right? The countless tier 5 or 6 crypt creatures.”
Klein nodded.
Then, the Poison Dragon said again, “Such a huge number of crypt creatures exist in such a strange way. It’s not because of anything else, but to suppress the existence beneath the earth.”
“I’ve only heard of that existence, but I know that the thing that caught the Lord’s eye is definitely not an ordinary thing.”
“The purpose of this existence is to suppress that existence and obtain its immense blood aura, which can be used to refine a great medicine.”
Upon hearing the Poison Dragon’s words, Klein frowned.
If that was true, then the person behind this was truly terrifying.
While Klein was still struggling to survive in the catacombs world, the other party was already playing with the catacombs world in his hands.
With this in mind, Klein asked again, “That person is Raksha?”
Raksha had almost become a knot in Klein’s heart.
In particular, many things had revealed Raksha’s figure.
Therefore, Klein had no choice but to be very careful.
“Raksha?”
The Poison Dragon revealed a look of disdain.
But it didn’t elaborate. Instead, it looked at Klein and said, “Human, the equivalent exchange you mentioned. Now, it’s time for you to tell me how you survived.”
“Don’t lie to me! I’m very clear about the strength of my own magic.”
Klein nodded.
He thought to himself, ‘It seems like the Poison Dragon knows quite a bit.’
His previous plan might have to change.
In that case, what harm was there in telling him?
Therefore, Klein said, “Your heavenly lightning didn’t completely cover everything. There were at least three or four spots that weren’t covered.”
Upon hearing Klein’s words, the Poison Dragon was taken aback.
It wasn’t stupid, so it naturally knew what Klein meant.
But what it never expected was that Klein was so lucky to be able to grasp that spot!
But soon, the Poison Dragon heaved a sigh of relief.
The way it looked at Klein changed as well.
Why?
Because the unknown was very terrifying.
Previously, it had thought that Klein had hidden his true strength, or that he had a body that was no less than a dragon’s. But now, it seemed like that wasn’t the case!
Therefore, the Poison Dragon’s thoughts began to stir.
