Chapter 365 - Secrets Of The Ancient Era
The entire area fell silent.
The god continued to speak out a piece of news that caused the highgod experts to be even more shocked.
"According to the people who returned, he also has two demigod dragons. One is a fire-type dragon, while the other is a metal-type dragon. These two dragons are both extremely terrifying. According to their descriptions, these two dragons are as large as mountains and continents. In front of these dragons, Adrian doesn't even have the slightest bit of power to resist."
Hearing this, another round of discussion broke out.
"Giant dragons? Giant dragons aren't a very powerful race, how can they be so terrifying?"
"That's right, even a rare metal-type giant dragon can't be so powerful, let alone an ordinary fire-type giant dragon!"
"I think these people deliberately made up a lie in order to shirk responsibility!"
"Damn it! They actually dared to deceive the God of Slaughter!"
"Call all those who have returned here! Execute them all!"
Everyone didn't believe this at all. They clamored for execution.
The god looked at everyone. He didn't say anything else. He didn't know whether this news was true or false. He just came to report.
"Enough."
The God of Slaughter's face was calm as he spoke.
The highgods present instantly shut their mouths.
"I understand."
Hearing the God of Slaughter's reply, the god respectfully bowed, then withdrew from the temple.
The entire place fell into silence once more, and everyone turned to look at the God of Slaughter. Without the God of Slaughter speaking, no one dared to speak.
The God of Slaughter revealed a thoughtful look, as though he was recalling something.
And then he said to everyone, "What do you all think of this matter?"
"God of Slaughter, how can a demigod dragon be able to crush our demigod subordinates? That's impossible! I think it's a lie created by these people to shirk their responsibilities! They should all be executed!"
"That's right! It's not like we've never seen dragons before. There are many dragons in the endless planes. Aside from their wide distribution, there's nothing special about them. It's impossible for them to have such terrifying talent!"
Right at this moment, Augustellan spoke.
"Hmph!"
"What's the point of saying so much right now? Regardless of whether or not he has such a terrifying giant dragon, this has already happened. That person has already fled. There's no way to prove it!"
Augustellan's cold gaze swept over everyone, then said, "In the end, this is all because the demigods under your command are too weak!"
"You are all fighting for a chance to enter the trial plane, but you aren't able to guarantee the strength of the person who enters!"
"If one of my people enters the trial plane this time, regardless of whether or not he has a giant dragon, my people will capture him!"
The group of peak highgod experts was berated by Augustellan, but no one dared to retort.
It wasn't because they were afraid of him. Although Augustellan's power was one of the top few in the group, he wasn't the number one. It wasn't to the extent that no one dared to retort.
The most important reason was that for some unknown reason, Augustellan's subordinates had improved far faster than the others.
If Augustellan had belittled them, they would definitely retort.
However, Augustellan accused them of sending people who were too weak. If they were his people, they would definitely be able to capture them.
They really had no way to refute this point.
Who asked his people to advance so quickly.
At the same time, everyone was once again curious. What method did Augustellan use to let his people advance so quickly?
If they were able to master this method as well, then their own power would be able to rise explosively in a short period of time!
At this moment, another god ran in, his face filled with anxiety.
The gazes of the dozens of peak highgod experts immediately turned towards him.
The god suddenly discovered that there were dozens of peak highgod experts within the temple. They revealed terrified looks as they began to search the area.
"Lord Augustellan!"
The god ran in front of Augustellan, kneeling down as he called out.
Augustellan's face was ugly to behold. He had just bragged about his subordinates and now his own subordinates were frantically charging in. Compared to the gods under the God of Slaughter, they were simply too weak!
"What is it?" Augustellan asked, rather angry.
The god hurriedly said, "Milord, bad news! Those damned fellows fled from the Land of Slaughter!"
"What?"
Augustellan's eyes widened, revealing a look of disbelief.
He grabbed the collar of the god, then angrily shouted, "How many people ran away?"
The god hovered there in the air, trembling in terror. With difficulty, he said, "Milord, all of them... all of them ran away!"
Hearing this, Augustallen was stunned, frozen in place.
After a long time, he finally reacted.
It was over!
The impact of this matter far surpassed just capturing a few more people. It wasn't as simple as that!
In all these years, he had captured countless people, many of whom were backed by major clans and organizations.
Even though he was a peak highgod expert, he still couldn't bear the pressure of so many people working together!
"Where are the Watchers? Where is Barnard? Where are these damned fellows?"
Augustellan began to shout angrily, completely losing the bearing of a highgod expert.
The god said with a trembling voice, "They are all dead. They were killed by the giant dragon of Joelson!"
As soon as these words left his mouth, Augustellan immediately shut his mouth.
The entire area descended into a deathly silence.
They had just heard this name.
Under their questioning, the god told them the entire story. He wasn't a Watcher, so he didn't stay in the killing grounds. By the time he sensed that something was wrong, most of the people had fled. He had only captured a few scattered people and he asked them the entire story.
Everyone fell silent. They couldn't believe that such a terrifying demigod dragon existed.
However, both Augustellan's people and those who had returned from the trial plane gave the same explanation.
The only difference was that in the trial plane, there was a fire-type dragon and a metal-type dragon.
And in the Land of Slaughter, there was a fire-type dragon and a slaughter dragon.
All of this meant that this was true!
There really was a demigod giant dragon that could crush a god!
Everyone was silent, not saying a word. They had never heard of such a terrifying giant dragon.
At this moment, the God of Slaughter suddenly spoke.
"It should be that the bloodline of the ancient giant dragon has awakened. The ancient giant dragons weren't as weak as the current giant dragons. In the ancient era, the giant dragon race ruled over countless planes under the leadership of the Ancient Dragon God. They were the most powerful force in the endless planes. The current giant dragons are merely inferior products of the ancient giant dragons."
The crowd looked at the God of Slaughter with shock in their eyes. They had never heard of such an ancient secret.
