Chapter 69

"Sir! Hurry up and go...!"

A Portland swordsman, his body enveloped in a fiery red combat aura, shouted at Glen with all his might, but he was unprepared for a cold, shadowy light that mercilessly swept across his waist in an instant.

His upper and lower body separated grotesquely, causing him to let out a horrifying scream as he struggled and rolled in a pool of blood.

"Sandy! Damn dragon!"

Glen felt a chill run through his body, as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over him from head to toe.

His subordinates were risking their lives to give him a chance to escape, but they could not stop the ferocious golden dragon for even a moment.

"Roar!~"

A massive beast, its body covered in sharp blades that shimmered with a silver light, roared with a deafening sound. It looked like a killing monster made up of various divine weapons, and the lightning-fast slash that had cut the Portland swordsman in half was from its blade-like tail.

In stark contrast to its large, brilliantly metallic body, there were many shocking and ugly pits on its surface, which seemed to be growing and writhing as if they had a life of their own. Even with the unparalleled healing ability of the golden dragon, it seemed unable to stop the decay and corruption of these terrible marks.

This was a very terrifying curse, causing the golden dragon to go berserk and also to greedily devour every piece of metal it encountered, hoping to delay and break down this strange curse.

The "Tiger Fang" team and several other groups dared to have the audacity to target this dragon, probably hoping to take advantage of its weakened state to finish it off. However, they had completely underestimated the terrifying power of the golden dragon.

The Portland Sword God saw Lin Mo, who had just rushed out of the prayer hall nearby, and his pupils constricted slightly, as if he had guessed something. In fact, he was very close to the truth.

That damned dragon rider had impersonated a priest of the Divine Court and successfully deceived him.

By a twist of fate, the Portland Sword God had hit the mark in a bizarre way.

"Sure enough, it's you!"

Glen roared, drew his giant sword, and dragged it on the ground as he charged at the dragon rider.

The green wind combat aura burned fiercely. Even if he could not escape today, he would drag the other party down with him.

A fierce wind blew, and a huge shadow fell from the sky, causing the ground to tremble violently.

The golden dragon landed with a thunderous crash in front of the prayer hall, crushing a large tree and a pond, and blocking Glen's charge.

"Damn it!"

The Portland Sword God's hair stood on end as he stared at Lin Mo's face through the golden dragon. Even if he was killed by the dragon in the next second, he would remember this despicable person who had toyed with him.

The dragon rider and the dragon were both present, and they had foolishly walked into a trap without knowing it!

The golden dragon casually turned, and its thick tail whistled toward the Portland Sword God. Glen's face changed drastically, but he could not dodge in time. He could only grit his teeth and muster all his combat aura to block it with his sword.

A translucent green circular shield suddenly appeared in front of his body, a wind element shield released by the fifth-rank alchemical artifact "Heart Shield" hidden in his chest. In front of the terrifying force of the dragon's tail, it was like a fragile bubble, shattering and dispersing instantly.

The thick tail then crashed into the giant sword without any resistance, and even the sword could not stop it. It struck Glen's chest directly, leaving him with only a bare sword hilt in his hand, and a mouthful of blood mist spewed out.

At the same time, a loud crack sounded from his chest. The fifth-rank alchemical artifact that had absorbed the impact and shattered the element shield disintegrated and became scrap.

The Portland Sword God, like a projectile glowing with green combat aura, crashed into a nearby shop, causing a loud commotion inside, and no one knew how many things he had knocked over.

Without reliable weapons, even a Sword God was no match for a dragon in hand-to-hand combat. His powerful combat aura was useless, and even if he gathered all his strength and struck the dragon, it was like scratching an itch, making no difference at all.

"It's not that guy, Gold!"

Lin Mo's face changed drastically when he saw such a wild and domineering scene.

Although dragons looked almost the same to humans, differing only in size and fatness, he immediately recognized that this dragon, which seemed to be under a vicious curse, was not the lazy glutton he knew.

Instead, it was an unfamiliar adult golden dragon, releasing a ruthless and murderous aura, with a bloody stench that suggested countless humans had fallen to its claws.

"Human!~"

This was the first time the golden dragon spoke, extending its sharp, blade-like claws toward Lin Mo.

Its red dragon eyes stared intently at the dragon rider, reflecting a疯狂的意味，杀戮之龙的名号绝非虚名。

林默的脸色有些发青，不由自主地一步步后退，但不敢露出半点害怕的神色。

这个陌生的家伙可不是自己家里的那个大吃货，可以随意捏扁捏圆，傲娇作怪，还会喊老板。

他有点后悔没把“龙将”穿在身上，不过就算穿上了也没什么大用，连波特兰剑神都被对方全垒打，想必一人一龙若是当场开练，下场也好不到哪里去。

当初他能制住金币那货，靠的是龙笛和龙骑士契约，而现在却什么都没有，自己与任人宰割的羔羊没有任何区别。

“人族，你让我有一种很奇怪的感觉！似乎……”

金系巨龙的眼睛忽然微微眯了起来，似乎在回忆着什么，满口獠牙距离龙骑士越来越近，一棵两人合抱的大树顶住了他的后背，退无可退。

无需怀疑，只要张开大口往前一噬，足以轻而易举地连人带树一同咬个粉碎。

大树后面不远处就是小镇的祈祷堂，一想到那个善良纯洁的小修女，林默便没有了继续后退的打算，不能让这头巨龙的注意力转移到祈祷堂里那些无辜者的身上。

无论她是神庭的人，还是一名斯兰平民，林默十分清楚自己被授封为龙骑士的那一天开始，他究竟为什么而战！

职责！荣誉！抑或是帝国！

哪怕被人说作是愚蠢至极的烂好人，也不能改变龙骑士的坚持。

“神啊！”

在祈祷堂大门口处看到这一幕的小修女梅莉朵尔仅仅只来得及发出这一声轻呼，立刻就被小镇药师历良和其他人捂住了嘴，联手拖了回去，带往祈祷堂的后门，曾死里逃生的“虎牙”团队深知这个大家伙的恐怖。

金系巨龙才不会在乎什么神庭，巨龙族的天空龙城可是能够同时强硬面对光明神庭和黑暗圣堂的强大存在。

“嗯！另一头金系巨龙的味道，你身上竟然有金系龙族的气息，难道你也是我的同族，不不不，你是人族，这毫无疑问，我想想，龙神在上，没错，你竟然得到了一位金系巨龙的真正友谊！”

带着浓重血腥味道的尖利无比龙牙几乎快要触及动弹不得的林默脑袋前一寸时猛然收了回去，这头陌生的金系巨龙抬起了巨大的头颅，不可置信地打量着这个渺小的人族，甚至一度忘了身上咒术给自己带来的痛苦。

一个人族没被桀骜不驯的杀戮之龙绞成渣渣就已经谢天谢地，竟然还能得到真正的龙族友谊，这简直是千古奇闻，若非亲眼所见，这头金系巨龙肯定会认为这是一个天大的笑话。

对方身上隐隐散发出只有金系龙族才能感应到的微弱契约痕迹，那不仅仅是友谊，还是生死与共的真正龙族契约！

究竟是哪一个昏了头的金系巨龙跟一个人族主动签下这样的契约，太疯狂了。

难道是漫长的时间磨灭了传承的记忆，忘记了这是金系龙族的最大禁忌吗？

“人族，你很幸运，我不会杀你！”

这头巨龙看向林默的目光当场就变了，就像看到一个烫手的大山芋。

还不待林默开口，它又接着说道：“当然，你若是想要解脱的话，我可以帮你，确切的说，应该是帮我的同族，终究还是有办法解开的，我不知道那家伙是怎么想的，竟然不顾传说中的禁忌与你签下这样的契约，这对你对它，绝不是什么好事，或者说，是一场即将发生的灾难，只有金系巨龙才能帮你，至少能让你死得痛快一点儿，少受些折磨。”

三句话不离本行，金系巨龙张口闭口就是杀戮，让林默有些胆战心惊，不过可以肯定的是，对方想要杀自己，却需要征得自己的同意。

真是令人寒彻灵魂的黑色幽默，不过对方的话却让林默暗中皱起了眉头，似乎隐约证实了自己曾经的猜测，那个吃货果然对自己做过了什么。

“抱歉，这位巨龙大人，我是一位龙骑士，我的座骑巨龙想必您也能猜得到，和您一样也是一头金系巨龙，只不过您刚才说的这些，我完全听不明白。”

林默无法理解有哪个中二青年会巴巴地找一头金系巨龙给自己做免费安乐死。

金系巨龙一怔，歪了歪脑袋重新上下打量着龙骑士，发出一阵怪异的冷笑，“你不需要明白，嘿，你很快就会有大麻烦，真的，一个天大的麻烦，我很期待！看在这个禁忌契约的份上，我可以提醒你，远离其他的巨龙，越远越好，嘿嘿，嘿嘿嘿······”

它的笑声让人感觉就像看到了一个被判死缓的重刑犯，让林默的一颗心飞快地沉了下去。

一双巨大的龙翼扑扇出狂风，托起释放出天赋“虚空磁场”的龙躯，金系巨龙摇摇晃晃地开始爬升，浑然不在意自己在起飞时撞塌了一座民宅再次引发一片尖叫声，飞快地消失在镇墙外。
