Chapter 517 - 276: Black Dragon! Black Dragon!_3
"It’s a dragon roar." Raine immediately recognized the unique majesty of the Dragon Race within the roar.
"It’s a black dragon!"
"Based on that position, it must be the Black Dragon Soron Nairuthus!" Meredith exchanged a glance with her father and exclaimed.
Upon hearing Meredith’s words, Raine instantly understood why the Wings of Blaze were blocking their way.
It turned out to be the critical moment for ambushing the black dragon!
Wait, a black dragon?!
Suddenly, a thought popped into Raine’s mind.
Previously, before acquiring the protector, Raine had no intention of getting involved in the Urein Empire’s muddy waters, but now, the situation is different.
Firstly, he had successfully obtained the Emperor’s Dual Hammer’s protector, which had further enhanced his own power. Even against transcendent high-tier experts, he is now capable of fighting.
Secondly, the Urein Empire’s behavior is too aggressive and domineering.
Originally, the Mauritanian ancient tunnel was located in a border zone claimed by neither side, yet the Urein Empire forcibly occupied it.
And now, it’s even worse; they’ve directly blocked their route back to the surface.
Of course, while they could take a detour, it would take an extra half month’s time, and they would constantly have to guard against possible Hernet Family pursuers from behind.
There’s no doubt that the actions of the Urein Empire have forced them into a dangerous situation.
Since that’s the case, why not take this opportunity to cause them some trouble?
Lastly, there’s the allure of the black dragon’s bloodline!
A dragon’s bloodline stronger than that of the White Dragon represents... unspeakable significance!
...
Not far away.
"The Urein Empire intends to slay Soron Nairuthus, the black dragon, to clear the Muddy Marsh and launch a two-pronged attack on the Bane Family!"
As a drow high-tier priestess who is well-versed in deception and scheming, Siriel is extremely familiar with the geography of the Underdark. With a bit of thought, she understood the purpose of the Urein Empire’s actions this time.
Compared to the theft of an epic magic equipment, without a doubt, the current actions of the Urein Empire are far more significant to the entire Underdark and the entire drow elf race.
Siriel is convinced that even if Matron Lorina were present, she would make the same decision as her.
"Go! We must not let the Urein Empire successfully kill Soron Nairuthus!"
In fact, several black dragons live around the Hernet Family.
If there’s no territorial dispute, the Drow families and the black dragons can broadly maintain a balance of mutual exploitation or a relationship where one party pays and the other works.
Of course, if the drow elf family weakens, the black dragons would gladly have a cadre of drow elf dependents under their command.
Conversely, if the drow elves are strong enough, the black dragons often keep their distance or lend assistance in battle in exchange for certain wealth.
"Roar!!"
"Wait!" With the second pain-laden dragon roar, Siriel clearly sensed the dragon roar becoming clearer, evidently, the opponent was swiftly approaching their direction.
"Set up an ambush immediately. We’ll intercept the Urein Empire people right here!"
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Having made preparations and just about to venture alone into the core battle area between the Urein Empire and the black dragon for reconnaissance, Raine also heard the second dragon roar.
"Not good! It’s coming our way."
"Perfect, Sulfur Vine! A black dragon! A black dragon!!" Laisa cheerfully exclaimed, leaning her head towards Sulfur Vine to whisper with excitement.
