Drawing Cards in the Middle Ages to Rise in Ranks

Crack——

The Tyrannical Dragon took a step forward, its black-gray scales peeling off layer by layer. Within just a few breaths, new blood-colored scales grew anew, replacing the corroded black scales.

Even more so.

As it quickened its pace, the heavy shackles surrounding its body emitted a hum, unbearable of the burden.

With a loud bang.

All of the rune marks still glowing with blood light at this moment dimmed completely, and the shackles shattered in response.

The demon array that Furinjira painstakingly set up was so easily pierced by the Tyrannical Dragon!

The Tyrannical Dragon ignored Furinjira and kept its gaze fixed on Losa, whom it saw as a provocative "kin."

Jeanne shouted, "Furin, get out of the way first. This giant dragon's fire attribute magic power has a restraining effect on your blood magic power. You're no match for it."

Chelina's figure flickered.

She appeared on the other side of the volcano's mouth.

Her twin swords were already unsheathed.

She bent her knees slightly.

Behind her, the Tyrannical Dragon's body suddenly cracked open with blood streaks.

Scorching dragon blood spurted out and spilled onto the ground, its temperature seemingly higher than lava, scorching a pitted surface.

This heavy blow instantly elevated the Tyrannical Dragon's fury to a peak.

Only to see the Tyrannical Dragon open its massive mouth.

The temperature soared.

The terrifying high temperature caused Losa's hair to curl, emitting a charred smell.

"Hide behind me."

Prajna, expressionless, held the Black Shield and stood in front of everyone.

The Black Shield rapidly expanded, giving off a feeling of grandeur like a towering mountain; the ghost face carving atop it revealed a bitter melon expression.

Then, the Tyrannical Dragon took a deep breath.

In an instant, as if it sucked all the nearby air dry, a wild wind kicked up.

Its chest and abdomen swelled high.

Scorching dragon breath gathered in its mouth.

The volcano became restless.

The earth trembled.

Rolling lava spewed out from the volcano's mouth like garbage being flung, scattered with an acrid smoke, pounding the Ghost Face Shield like raindrops.

Boom——

Compared to the Breath of the Giant Dragon that Losa received, the temperature of the terrifying Dragon Flame sprayed from the Tyrannical Dragon's mouth was unfathomably higher.

At this moment.

The world seemed to plunge into darkness.

Thick smoke rose, obscuring the sky and sun.

The villagers at the foot of the mountain, terrified and bewildered, witnessed this horrific phenomenon and fell to their knees, as if praying for the omnipresent holy fire to stop this disaster.

This Tyrannical Dragon, through its centuries of slumber, seemed to have forged a bond with the volcano, which due to daily pilgrimages from the people, was regarded as the descent of holy fire, thereby taking on divinity.

Like beacons in the dark, two golden dragon eyes pierced through the darkness, through the shield like a Hell Gate, colliding with Losa's gaze.

This is a battle between dragon species.

The victor will be crowned new king.

The defeated will only pave the path to the new king's coronation with their bones.

Losa's heart beat faster and faster, the Dragon Bloodline rushing like a torrent inside him, making his body surface suddenly appear with a layer of jet-black scale armor.

Only previously appearing as a phantom behind him, the Demon Dragon now seemingly overlapped with Losa.

Your Dragon Bloodline is stimulated, activating a new milestone: King of Volcanoes.

Milestone Description: Kill it, devour it, leave not a trace.

Milestone Effect: Unknown.

Cough—

From Losa's mouth came a series of rapid, hoarse coughs.

His back bent, and sharp bone spurs pierced through his skin with a tearing sound, protruding from the gaps of dense black scales.

Roar——

As if an endless fury was hidden in his chest.

Losa's eyes, in an instant, were replaced by pure animalism.

"Kill it, devour it, leave not a trace!"

A hoarse voice rang out.

The Tyrannical Dragon seemed to understand and returned a roar filled with disdain and mockery.

Bam——

Its tail, like a Siege Hammer, slammed hard onto the Black Shield in Prajna's hand.

The moment the shield was skewed.

Once again, scorching dragon breath gathered in its mouth.

But at that moment.

Losa opened his hand.

A bloody streak of light, like the arrow used by Houyi in shooting down the sun, instantly pinned itself upon the Tyrannical Dragon's body.

This is also a throw of the Blood Spear.

Its power is even less than any thrown by Furinjira, unable to break the defenses of the Tyrannical Dragon at all.

However.

The Dragon Breath brewing in its mouth suddenly stopped.

This is a throat choke!

The linen shirt on Jeanne was damaged by the scorching heat, revealing the towering mounds beneath, along with smooth, flawless wheat-colored skin like jade.

It should have been an alluring scene.

But her expression was filled with a sense of sanctity, like the war and wisdom deity in myth and legend, inviolable, wearing the Thorn Crown.

She raised the Holy Spear high.

Murmuring a grand "Holy!" that seemed to be chanted by tens of thousands.

Gungnir.

Flashing like lightning through the sky.

With a roar of rage from the Tyrannical Dragon, it pierced out from its chest.

Jeanne raised her hand.

The Holy Spear returned to her hand, bringing back dragon blood that smoked in her palm.

Her expression remained unchanged, full of contempt, she loudly declared, "Inferior small god, not worth a sneer."

Scorching, viscous, lava-like dragon blood sprayed onto the earth.

Losa, without hesitation, stepped on the Black Shield in Prajna's hand to gain leverage and rose into the air.

In midair.

The Holy Spear condensed in his hand.

The enraged Tyrannical Dragon immediately focused its gaze on Losa, followed by the terrifying Dragon Breath instantly engulfing him.

"Milord!"

Furinjira's face instantly turned ashen.

Chelina watched the scene in astonishment, then without hesitation, soared into the air. With her level raised to fifty, her agility points had long exceeded three hundred.

In the eyes of most, she hadn't even moved from her spot.

But in the next moment.

Losa pierced through that horrific Dragon Breath, his clothes long burned away by flames, but the golden hue in his eyes grew stronger.

Prajna Talent, Solid Stone activated.

He momentarily gained immunity to all physical harm, allowing Losa to disregard the terrifying heat, holding the Holy Spear in his hand, exempt from the usual cost needed to activate the "Guaranteed Hit" feature.

Pouring all his spirit and physical strength into it.

The result was ultimate destructive power.

"Die!"

The Holy Spear pierced through the Tyrannical Dragon's chest, its terrifying destructive force made golden lines appear like webbing across its surface, when the golden net fully formed, it marked the death of the Tyrannical Dragon.

Scalding molten dragon blood splashed onto Losa.

Pain briefly awakened Losa's rationality, allowing him to still have the strength to invest all accumulated attribute points into physical strength and spiritual power.

This clearly became the last straw to break the camel's back.

The Holy Spear's insatiable appetite finally absorbed all of Losa's power, and even through his bond with Jeanne, it appropriated Jeanne's power as well.

The golden net formed.

Immediately.

The entire volcano crater bathed in golden glory.

Roar——

In its dying moment.

The Tyrannical Dragon uttered a deathly roar.

A pair of eyes belonging to the Evil Wolf suddenly illuminated above its head.

Chelina came to its neck with dual blades in hand.

The two swords crossed.

Execution!

The Dragon Head fell to the ground.

The splattering scorching dragon blood couldn't touch Chelina at all, and she was already back on the ground, supporting a staggering, nearly collapsing Losa.

The system's notification sounded like a bombardment in Losa's ear.
