"Longtimenosee."

Onlythey,untouchedbytime,tookcareoftheserareflowersandplantsinthesecludedtower,dayafterday,likediligentgardeners.

"Ienvyyou,alwayssocarefree,"Kingdom’sShieldsaid,watchingthebutterfliesdancefreelyinthefairygarden,asifshehadreturnedtoheryouthfuldays.

Backthen,shewaspureandflawless,herhandsuntouchedbysomuchblood.

Thewarbetweenhumansanddragonswasnotasjustandrighteousaslaterhistorybookswouldclaim.

Atthattime,therewerehumanswhochosetostandwiththestrongestrace,thedragons,believingthedragons’rulewasunshakable.

However,theydidn’texpectthearrivalofTheKingofUndead.

AmongthemillionsofundeadarmysleepingintheUndergroundCemetery,manywereoncehumanarmieswhohadsidedwiththedragons.

AndtheonewhodevisedthestrategytocompletelyannihilatethesehumanarmieswasnoneotherthanthehighestmilitaryleaderoftheUndergroundCemetery-theformernumberoneknightofthecontinent.

ThetrueKingofUndeadwasactuallymoreinclinedtowardsscholarlyresearch.

Ifitweren’tforthesituationwherewarhadcometothepointwherehumansanddragonscouldonlyremainonthecontinent,heprobablywouldn’thavetakentheinitiativetoparticipateinthefighting.

"Now,onthiscontinent,you’retheonlydragonleft."

"Youhavethequalificationstobetherepresentativeofthedragonclanandfulfilltheoriginalalliance."Regardingthedisappearanceofthedragonclan,noteventhemermaidsortheLamiaclanhaveanyclues.

Itseemsthatatsomepointintime,allthedragonclans,aswellassomeancientracesinthedeepsea,completelydisappearedfromSia’sworld.

Theskystillremainsunbroken,andinanerawherethemagictideisweakening,manypeoplebelievethattheseracescouldn’tadapttotheextremelyharshmagicalenvironmentandnaturallydiedout.

Kingdom’sShielddoesn’tbelievethatthedominantdragonclanofthisworldwouldsimplyvanish,buttheyalsocan’tfindanycluesaboutthem.

Itseemsthatinthisworld,thereistrulyonlythisyoungdragonleftbeforeoureyes.

However,thepowerofthisyoungdragonisextremelystrong,asifitembodiesthemiracleoftheentiredragonclan.

Thelasttimethisspecialdragonclanappeared,itwasnoneotherthanKingdom’sShield’shalf-body,theRiftSpaceDragon.

RiftSpaceDragonwastheonlyuniquedragonspeciesinthehistoryofthedragonrealm,carryingthehopeforthedragonclantobreakthroughSia’sworldandventureintothestars.

Duringthatwar,theRiftSpaceDragonwastaskedwithobservationsandreconnaissancefromtensofthousandsofmetershighinthesky,apositionunknowntohumans.

Theoretically,theweaponryofSia’sworldatthattimewasincapableofreachingtheheightswheretheRiftSpaceDragonresided,andevenotherdragonsofthesamespeciesposednothreattoit.

So,thedragonclanallowedtheRiftSpaceDragontopatrolatsuchheightswithfullconfidence.Thisyoungdragon,whohadonlyignitedthreeElectricRings,wasresponsibleforobservingtheentireSia’sworldandpreparingforthefuturebreakthroughofHeaven’sBanishment.

Thewarwithhumanswasimpossibletolose,andmanydragonseventreateditasagame.Intheearlystages,thegroundforcesledbythetrollclanalonepushedhumansbackinconstantretreat.

Ifhumansdidn’thaveanoverwhelmingadvantageinnumbers,theinitialcasualtieswouldhaveturnedthiswarintoaone-sidedmassacre.

Atrollwascapableofannihilatinghalfofahumanarmy,anundeadmonster.

NooneexpectedthattheRiftSpaceDragonwouldbeshotdownbyasuddenattack,withoutevenachanceforwarningorrescue.

Bytheendofthewar,thedragonclanstilldidn’tknowhowtheRiftSpaceDragondiedandwhatkindofattackcauseditsdemise.

ThehopethatsoaredthroughtheskywasshatteredforthedragonclanoftheRiftSpaceDragon.ViewingthedeathoftheRiftSpaceDragonasaturningpointfortheentirebattlefieldwasnotanexaggeration.

Losingtheadvantageouspositionofobservingthegroundfreelyfromtensofthousandsofmetershigh,combinedwiththeemergenceofTheKingofUndeadjoiningthebattleunderthecontrolofOperaHousePhantom,theUndeadArmybegantopushbackthedragonarmywhichonceheldabsolutesuperiority.

Intheend,thedragonclanretreatedfromthecontinentindisappointment,alsolosingthelasthopeofbreakingthroughSia’sworld,Heaven’sBanishment.

ThedeceasedRiftSpaceDragoncouldnolongergrow,andtherewereonlythreeoftheSevenElectricRingsleftthatcouldbeactivated.Inasense,thesuddendeathoftheRiftSpaceDragonwasmoredevastatingforthedragonclanthanthefailuretoclaimdominanceoverthecontinent.

Thishadnothingtodowithwar.Inreality,theRiftSpaceDragonhadneverparticipatedinthebattlefieldbetweenhumansanddragons.Itsgoalswerefarbroader.

TheRiftSpaceDragonyearnedfortheinfiniteexpanseofthestarrysky,andforthisreason,itgavebirthtotheSevenElectricRings,whichtheoreticallycouldbreakthroughHeaven’sBanishment.

However,boththeRiftSpaceDragonandTheKingofUndeadlosttheirmostimportantthingsbecauseofthatwar.
