Chapter 215

"Hahaha, if nothing goes wrong, many people will have the same guess as you, but in fact, I died. Long before the world appeared on the verge of falling, all the dragons on the Dragon Nest that could leave did so under my instructions. And I, although I could also leave, decided to stay because I was investigating a matter, and in the end, I died because of the investigation."

Speaking of the investigation.

As if thinking of something, a look of undisguised hatred and anger flashed in the golden dragon's eyes.

Chen Ang frowned, noticed this, and asked softly, "I wonder what you were investigating?"

The Dragon King looked deeply at Chen Ang and replied, "Why my world suddenly came to the verge of falling."

Hearing this.

Chen Ang was shocked.

Why did it suddenly come to the verge of falling?

Wasn't it because the world itself had reached its end?

"Could it be that there is another reason for this?"

Chen Ang asked.

"Ah, that's right."

The Dragon King nodded, his voice icy. "If I hadn't investigated, I perhaps wouldn't have thought that the world's fall wasn't because the world had reached its end, but because those damn guys had actually targeted my world, and I even died at their hands!"

"Damn it!!"

"If my strength had been a little stronger, I could have spread this matter, but it's a pity that although I am a Dragon King, my strength was too weak. The moment I investigated the truth, I couldn't do anything; I could only watch helplessly as my body was killed by them and my soul was extinguished."

"Only leaving this remnant soul."

Chen Ang could hear it.

The Dragon King's tone revealed unwillingness and a trace of fear.

The one in front of him is a Dragon King.

A Dragon King of the Dragon race.

Even if not the Dragon King of the Dragon world, but the Dragon King of this world, his strength definitely couldn't be weak; at the very least, he was a top existence of this world, possessing World Lord level.

Such an existence would actually feel fear?

And when facing death, couldn't even struggle at all?!

What kind of terrifying existence is it?

Chen Ang was shocked.

But in his heart, there was more curiosity—curiosity so great that even though he knew knowing too much wasn't a good thing, he still couldn't help but ask.

"They... who are they?"

The Dragon King was silent.

He just stared at Chen Ang, and an oppressive force belonging to a Dragon King radiated out.

Chen Ang remained unmoved, locking eyes with the Dragon King.

After a long time.

The Dragon King grinned, revealing a smile that seemed extremely hideous to ordinary people but was actually one of appreciation. "Human, you are very good."

"I have some understanding of Talent-users; the rich dragon aura on you—it can be seen that you should be a dragon-attribute Talent-user, right?"

"Yes."

"You promise me one thing, and I can tell you who they are and bestow upon you a fortuitous encounter, how about it?"

"A fortuitous encounter?"

"Correct, a huge fortuitous encounter for you."

The Dragon King said in a deep voice. "That is my collection—a small world I opened up when I was preparing to investigate the truth, and I put all my collections into it, including the divine body left behind by an ancient ancestor of my lineage, a dragon deity."

"Although this world is about to fall, the small world I opened up has broken away from this world; no one knows its location, except for me."

"If you promise me, I can give you the coordinates of that small world, how about it?"

Damn.

Such a generous reward?

To be honest.

Upon hearing the Dragon King mention the treasures in the small world, Chen Ang's breathing suddenly quickened.

But at the same time, his expression became more grave.

The more generous the reward.

Without a doubt, the so-called matter was likely more dangerous.

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Ang looked up and asked, "Aren't you afraid that after you tell me the coordinates, I'll go directly to take all the harvest without fulfilling the thing I promised you? After all, you are only a projection now, right? You shouldn't be able to pose any threat to me."

"Hahaha, you're right, human."

"But don't underestimate a Dragon King of the Dragon race; even if I am only a projection now, I can still leave a restriction on you."

"As long as you don't fulfill what you promised me, the restriction won't be lifted, and you won't obtain the specific coordinates."

The Dragon King laughed and explained.

Hearing this, Chen Ang suddenly realized.

Then, he grinned, revealing a smile, and nodded. "Since that's the case, then... I promise you."

"Oh?"

A look of surprise flashed in the Dragon King's eyes. "Human, you should be able to guess that this matter will be very terrifying; aren't you afraid?"

"Afraid? Why should I be afraid?"

Chen Ang shook his head, his gaze flashing with unparalleled confidence, and he replied in a deep voice, "From the moment I became a Talent-user, I knew that things like fortuitous encounters, in any world, must be fought for by oneself."

"Fear cannot let me obtain fortuitous encounters or let me grow."

"Although dangerous, at least the reward is generous, isn't it? Since that's the case, why not take a gamble?"

"And I feel that I won't die, even if I am facing a deity!"

"Hahahahaha, human, you are very interesting."

The Dragon King laughed, his aura continuously spraying out, his pupils like stars staring at Chen Ang, and said, "I appreciate you, but you probably guessed wrong; what you have to face might not be just one deity."

What the hell?

These words left Chen Ang frozen in place.

In his heart, he subconsciously asked: Can I regret it now?

Not one deity?

You aren't kidding me, are you?

"Hoo!"

Chen Ang forced himself to calm down, took a deep breath, and asked, "I wonder... what exactly is the matter?"

The Golden Dragon King was silent, his eyes carrying a trace of memory, and then he sighed and spoke slowly:

"Human, you know about fallen worlds, right?"

"Naturally."

"Then do you know that among the countless fallen worlds in the endless heavens, many worlds were forced to die?"

"Those worlds that originally had long enough lifespans were watched by eyes, pushed by huge hands..."

"Buried into death!!"

217: Mutated skill, Dragon Soul Protection.

Along with the words.

Faintly.

It was as if a picture emerged.

In the picture, a clear world was displayed before his eyes.

Dragons were soaring above the clouds.

Orcs were struggling to survive in the desert.

In the human empire, nobles were communicating with each other, and banquets were constant.

And outside the world.

Unknown when, pairs of eyes appeared, watching this vibrant world.

Until the next moment.

A wisp of black energy surged into the world.

The world began to step into death.
