Chapter 61 - 61 Serious Xu Yuan
However, Xu Yuan had quickly hidden everything away. He always appeared like an ordinary little black dragon.
However, in this situation, Xu Yuan didn’t hide himself anymore. Twelve dark energy balls appeared behind him, and a mysterious magic array appeared under his feet.
The Demon Eye on his chest glowed with a strange color, and countless particles appeared in his eyes.
“Xu Yuan, be careful. You do know the type of danger the dark Dragon King brings, right?”
Su Wan had always seen Xu Yuan sleeping or laying around. Seeing him so serious, confused Su Wan.
“Wanwan, your hero can transform?” asked Shi Linglong. “That’s great, Wanwan! I knew your hero wasn’t simple!”
Amid the danger, Shi Linglong seemed to have temporarily forgotten about her current situation. She was like a curious little girl looking in wonderment at Xu Yuan.
Shi Linglong was clearly amazed by the change in Xu Yuan, but she wasn’t very surprised. After all, he was Su Wan’s Initial Hero. She knew Su Wan was terrifying, too. So, her hero couldn’t be that simple.
“This one has his eyes on me!” said Xu Yuan.
Xu Yuan’s demonic aura usually intimidated many creatures, but the Dark Dragon King had gone crazy. When someone was insane, they feared nothing.
The Dark Dragon King sensed Xu Yuan aura. It turned to look at him.
“You all should go. I will deal with him,” said Xu Yuan.
Su Wan shook her head. “I can’t leave you. Let’s just go together. It’s dangerous to fight against the dark Dragon King alone!”
“You might not know this, but, in the past, some creatures had special powers. They can kill you even without destroying the Territory Core,” continued Su Wan. “You can’t even revive.”
Su Wan remembered another Boss, the Giant Turtle Island, from ten years ago. She told Xu Yuan about it. If the Dark Dragon King had such an ability, there would be no way to revive Xu Yuan.
“Oh right! There is indeed such a special ability,” said Shi Linglong. “Xu Yuan, you can’t fight the dark Dragon King. Let’s escape together!”
Shi Linglong suggested they escape. As the fight raged on, more Lords would appear. The Dark Dragon King might get distracted and leave them alone.
Su Wan received a message from Lin Yao.
[Lin Yao: Wanwan, I heard that the Dark Dragon King appeared in the area near you and Linglong? Are you two alright?]
[Su Wan: Situation is not good! It’s after us!]
[Lin Yao: What?! Oh no!]
Lin Yao had thought that they were still safe, so she just texted them to check in on them, but she didn’t expect them to be in danger.
After a moment of silence, Lin Yao replied to Su Wan.
[Lin Yao: I found some ancient books in the library. I have a bold idea about the Dark Dragon King.]
Lin Yao emphasized that the Dark Dragon King’s consciousness might not have been completely obliterated.
[Lin Yao: The Dark Dragon King used to be a hero, and his Overlord was one of the Sages of the Blue Planet. She died while protecting the Blue Planet. The Dark Dragon King’s Overlord was one of the sages who once protected the Blue Planet, so the Dark Dragon King has different feelings for the Blue Planet and the Blue Planet’s Overlord.]
Lin Yao believed that they could wake the dark demon Dragon from his current state of madness. If they could achieve that, the Dark Dragon King would not lay a hand on the Overlords from Blue Planet out of respect for his previous Overlord.
If things worked out like Lin Yao suggested, the problem would be solved at the root.
[Su Wan: But how do we wake the Dark Dragon King?]
Su wan thought that this might be equivalent to an SSS-level of difficulty. If she wanted to awaken the Dark Dragon King, she would have to get close to him.
However, the deranged Dark Dragon King did not recognize anyone. It was close to impossible to get close!
However, to Su Wan’s surprise, Lin Yao had a way for that too.
[Lin Yao: I got a special item here. It can enter the dreams of other creatures. The current Dark Dragon King’s soul might have fallen into a deep sleep, and his subconscious is controlling his body. That’s why he’s crazy!]
Lin Yao sent the special Oil Lamp through a remote transaction. Su Wan told Shi Linglong about the idea.
However, the terrified Shi Linglong felt that it was safest to escape back to the Blue Planet instead. She didn’t want to stay in this chaotic Overlord Plane for now.
Su Wan thought her fears were justifiable. Even if Lin Yao’s plan had the tiniest probability of working, the risk was still too great. It wasn’t a simple problem.
If it was a simple problem, they could still risk it in the hopes that they will be revived in their territory. However, this was dangerous. Fighting a Boss of this level could mean they would die.
“Let’s go!”
Su Wan and Shi Linglong made up their minds to return to the Blue Planet.
But, at the critical moment, they found that they could not go back. The surrounding area had been sealed.
The Flower Fairy looked deathly pale. She explained to them that the Dark Dragon King had sealed off the surrounding space. They were unable to return to the Blue Planet.
Xu Yuan was waiting and accumulating experience. If he wanted to fight the Dark Dragon King, he needed to upgrade his level. It would be a tough fight, otherwise.
Just as he thought about how to trick the Dark Dragon King, Su Wan also made up her mind.
“Since I can’t escape, I might as well fight,” she muttered.
Su Wan took out the special Oil Lamp that Lin Yao had remotely traded with her.
“Currently, we can only use this item to wake up the Dark Dragon King. Only then will we have a chance of survival!” Su Wan’s face was full of determination.
She wanted to tell Xu Yuan that there was no need to fight the Dark Dragon King. They could still escape through the abyss of darkness. However, Su Wan realized that that would only treat the symptoms, not the root of the problem.
The Dark Dragon King would continue to pursue them. Su Wan told Shi Linglong and Xu Yuan about the new plan to awaken the Dark Dragon King.
“Then, everyone, get ready!”
Su Wan held up the Oil Lamp in front of her.
Whoosh!
The Dragon Breath descended again, but the Oil Lamp strangely absorbed the Dark Dragon King’s Dragon breath.
The flame of the Oil Lamp flickered, and the scene in front changed.
