The Immortal Baron

Chapter 3: Lightning in the Moonlight Castle

The next night it rained. The dark moonlight rustled through the deep forest like a lonely ghost walking in the night. The wind whimpered as if it were crying, adding an eerie atmosphere to this unusual night.

After a while, a bolt of lightning struck the stone sculpture at the top of Moonlight Castle. The huge sculpture shook a little, and then the lightning instantly surrounded it, transforming it into a flying three-headed monster that circled the ancient castle. From time to time, it would spit lightning bolts at the castle, which would pierce through the dilapidated castle and plunge straight into the ground.

Not far from the deep forest, a group of half-beast werewolves and minotaurs, not yet fully transformed, were running frantically from two directions, following the lightning!

Hurry, the three-headed spiky-tailed dragon has been reborn! It'll be too late if we're late! The ape-man leader shouted, increasing his speed.

Chief, there are other groups approaching! A werewolf with excellent hearing shouted.

The ape-man leader noticed this too, stopped, pricked up his big ears to listen, waved his hand and led the group in the direction of the sound.

The two groups of half-beasts were all running very fast, and they met in no time!

'Stop!

'Stop!

'Thunder and lightning are intensifying towards Moonlight Castle, and the three demon dragons have been reborn!' the ape leader shouted.

1500 years have passed, and the three spiky-tailed dragons are afraid to resurrect their master! We have been ordered to stop them,' the bull-headed leader said with a slight frown.

Let's put aside our grudges for now! What do you say?

'Let's do it! Let's hurry!

With that, the two groups of people began to run towards the castle again, as fast as speeding cars.

By this time, the rain was falling even harder! The sky was filled with thunder and lightning!

The three-headed dragon, surrounded by lightning and thunder, flapped its wings as it circled the castle. Each time it flew, it spat out a bolt of lightning, and each time it struck the same spot!

The lightning had created a large pit deep under the castle, and the castle was also shrouded in a thick fog, white and blinding!

At that moment, the Minotaur and the Monkey Man had arrived!

The leader of the Minotaur army, seeing the three-headed dragon spitting lightning into the depths of the castle, wasted no words, grunted, leapt a hundred metres straight up, raised his large axe in his hand, and slashed at the three-headed dragon.

This axe, as if with the momentum of thousands of acres, sent a wave of light flying towards the three-headed dragon!

The Thorn-tailed Three-headed Dragon roared, and a bolt of lightning shot out of its mouth and struck the great axe. The bull-headed leader was instantly hit and flew more than 200 metres.

Everyone, we can't wait any longer! This three-headed demon dragon has just been reborn and is still weak. This is the perfect time to capture it! Otherwise, even if we are extremely skilled today, we will still die! The bull-headed leader rose from the ground, dragging his injured body and roaring.

The three thorn-tailed dragons did not attack the others, but circled the castle, spitting lightning and thunder again and again!

The leader of the monkey group was at a loss as to what to do. He listened to the bullheaded man and frowned slightly. He thought to himself, "These three dragons have not attacked us yet, but if we provoke them, we will not be able to resist together!

As he hesitated, he saw that the three-headed spiky-tailed dragon had stopped firing lightning bolts, and its body was a little weaker!

***************,*********!

The castle also collapsed in an instant, and something strange happened! I saw all the deep forest mist rushing towards the castle ruins at a speed visible to the n***d eye!

The Monkey Chief assessed the situation and saw that the Three-Headed Spiked Tail Dragons had entered a period of weakness. Roaring, he led a group of werewolves and charged forward! The monkeys were agile and strong! They rolled, jumped and climbed trees with their feet, their fangs bared, and they pounced on the three-headed dragons!

The Triceratops does not panic at this sight! Its wings flapped, knocking most of the werewolves off their feet. The leader of the monkey squad, stepping on the bodies of his subordinates, charges at the triceratops with all his might!

The Triceratops has just fired a hundred lightning bolts and is obviously very weak. As he does so, he is once again caught up by the other monkeys, and the monkey leader hits him with full force, causing him to fall out of the air!

The Minotaurs also see their chance and rush over!

The three-headed Spiked Tail Dragon roared and swung its tail, plunging it straight into the chests of two of the monkeys! Then it swung its tail, and the two Minotaurs who didn't duck were sliced in half by the sharp spikes on its tail.

Seeing this, the monkeys went even more mad, their eyes turning blood red! Their attacks became even faster.

Attack from the front and the back, strike at the same time!' Someone said.

The ape leader's bloodshot eyes were fixed on the three heads of the spiked dragon.

He thought to himself, 'This strange beast is truly formidable. I would never have imagined that it could still display such powerful fighting skills when it is so weak! If it had been in its prime, I don't think any of us would have survived!

The monkey and the bullheaded men attacked from the front and the back at the same time. Needless to say, it was a good strategy. The three-headed dragon was increasingly unable to defend himself, and he had already been bitten by the apes and had many wounds on his body.

The sky rumbled and bolts of lightning approached the castle! The three-headed dragon looked up!

This was his chance!

His entire body doubled in size, and he used all his strength to knock the besieging monkeys and minotaurs away!

At that moment, the lightning came closer and closer,

'Rumble~~ crackle~~'

A loud noise, a flash of lightning accompanied by thunder, and the entire forest was illuminated!

At that moment, the three-headed Spiked Tail Dragon moved! He spread his wings and leapt, his whole body crashing into the pillar of lightning.

The three-headed dragon knew very well that the lightning would only last for a moment, and that he was already extremely weak and unable to fly! If he didn't take this opportunity, he would probably die here today!

So there was no room for error on this jump, and he dove headfirst into the position where the lightning would strike.

The moment the three-headed dragon was struck, there was a dragon roar and thunder, and the scream was miserable. One could imagine that this blow had a powerful energy.

Everyone was shocked.

After the flash, the three-headed dragon lay motionless on the ground.

The apes and tauren gathered around it.

The two leaders looked at the already lifeless three-headed dragon, still in a state of shock, and glanced at each other.

The ape leader waved his hand behind him, and one ape understood and stepped forward to check on this strange monster.

In front of him lay the huge corpse of the thorn-tailed dragon, a layer of blackened skin burnt to the surface. The monkey walked from the thorn-tailed dragon's tail to its heart, leaning in close to listen to the heartbeat with his body. The monkey had excellent hearing!

The ape-man was sure that the thorn-tailed dragon had no heartbeat. Then, wanting to turn his head to look at the leader, he raised his right hand into a clenched fist and waved it! It means safety! The Spiky-tailed Dragon is confirmed dead!

The ape-man and the bull-headed man began to approach each other!

Suddenly, the Spiky-tailed Dragon moved! The Monkey Man, who was standing on the Spiky-tailed Dragon's corpse, unconsciously bent his legs slightly and waved his hand behind him.

The Monkey Man and the group of bullheaded men suddenly became nervous!

The monkey man slowly pulled out a curved knife from his waist, bent slightly, slowly raised the knife, aimed at his heart, and stabbed it violently...

At that moment, the spiky-tailed dragon suddenly opened its eyes and a bolt of lightning shot out of its body. The Monkey Man was instantly reduced to ashes!

The ape-man leader was shocked, "Quick, get back!

'Roar~' With a roar like thunder, the spiky-tailed dragon slowly stood up, surrounded by lightning even more powerful than before!

The spiky-tailed dragon spread its wings and flew up, roaring and opening its mouth as a bolt of lightning shot out. The beasts were agile too, jumping to avoid it!

The bullheaded leader was shocked. The three thorn-tailed dragons had regained their strength after the lightning baptism, and the next battle would be extremely dangerous.

The monkey-man leader and the bull-headed leader ordered everyone to disperse so that they would not be accidentally injured by the demon dragon, and they could also attack from different directions with their fists and feet!

However, at this time, the Thorn-tailed Dragon was looking at the group of ants in the air like a king.

The ape-man leader and the Minotaur leader exchanged glances, unleashed their full power and catapulted out. The Minotaur leader raised his great axe and charged directly at the Sting Dragon's heart, while the Ape Man leader took a spear and aimed straight for the centre of the Sting Dragon's head. Other beasts also rushed forward with the sole purpose of inflicting serious injury on the demon dragon with a single blow.

But in a flash, the spiky-tailed dragon swung its tail and swept the beasts away. The beasts that did not dodge fell heavily to the ground. Three spiked dragons spat lightning from their mouths, following close behind. The orcs that were struck did not even have a chance to react before they were destroyed by the lightning, not even leaving a trace!

The bullheaded leader was among them, but he was unaffected. He swung his large axe directly and violently. The spiky-tailed dragon had just shot a bolt and paused for a moment, but it was too late to avoid the swift blow. All it could do was flap its wings and fly aside, but unexpectedly, it was still unable to dodge the blow. The great axe came as expected and struck the tail!

This blow did not seriously injure the Spiked Tail Dragon, but it did infuriate it even more.

The Spiked Tail Dragon soared up, flew even higher, and then swooped down. It opened its mouth three times, and three lightning bolts exploded among the beasts.

With this single strike, more than half of the orcs were destroyed.

The spiked-tailed dragon thought to himself, "These orcs are really looking for death. I didn't want to get serious, but you just kept on pushing! Fine, I'll just destroy you all!

Three more waves of lightning shot out, and the ape and minotaur leaders quickly jumped away to avoid them, but the other orcs didn't have the strength to dodge, and the casualties were heavy.

The two looked at the remaining orcs around them, and their faces were grave! They thought to themselves that the orc army of 200 was so vulnerable in the face of the mighty demon dragon!

It was gone in a few strikes. The lightning bolts were terrifying! They really couldn't understand how their ancestors had fought back in the past!

There was no time for them to think about it. A bolt of lightning shot out, and the two of them combined their efforts to unleash the Beast Soul's superpower within their bodies and bravely withstood the strike!

But the shockwave also knocked them to the ground! There was no time to think about the pain. They both had the same idea: they had to escape quickly. They thought that if they were fast enough, they might be able to escape unharmed through the thick forest fog.

The ape-man was the first to turn his head and take a few quick steps, catapulting himself into the deep forest...

After running only a hundred metres, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. The fog barrier in the dark, moonlit forest was gone?

All that was left was a bit of thick fog around the crumbling castle that was slowly sinking into the ground!

Before he could think about it, he was about to turn and run for his life when he saw the Minotaur leader get struck by lightning and fall to the ground with a groan.

Seeing this, the ape leader understood that he too was doomed.

So he looked up to the sky and roared with all his might,

Then lightning struck and he died.
