Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1391

"Then, let’s leave for now." Wind also felt that they shouldn’t take the risk of just barging in such a mysterious place. Otherwise, if their lives were put in danger, they would lose the opportunity to search in other places.

"No. We’re already here." However, Rain disagreed. "What if Mother is inside? We have to make sure. We have to save her."

"Rain, listen to me. You’re being too rash. What if Mother isn’t inside?" Wind rebutted.

"Then, that’s when we leave this place and look for her somewhere else," Rain quickly replied.

"You’re being too naive! You know yourself that this palace is very mysterious. We don’t know what kinds of danger we may encounter once we get in. Worst case, we may not be able to get out at all," Wind tried to explain.

"I guess you’re right…" Rain said with a frown after thinking for a while.

"Let’s go. We have to leave now," Darren urged.

"Come on, Rain. We must hurry up," Wind said.

"Okay…" Rain finally agreed.

With that, the three of them started leaving the area.

However, just as when they were flying, a huge shadow suddenly appeared in the void that almost covered the starry sky.

Without any time to react, Darren and the siblings were instantly enveloped by the shadow.

"What is this? What’s happening?"

The siblings started to panic. They felt that an extremely cold aura had just located them.

"We have to escape first. Let’s go!"

Darren sped up and rushed, trying to get out of the shadow.

"What the..."

When Darren had already flown about a hundred feet, he suddenly felt that some kind of force was restraining him. He encountered a strong resistance that kept him from moving forward.

Then, he felt the sensation of being stuck in a deep quagmire. The space around him got tighter and tighter, rendering him motionless. The same thing also happened to Wind and Rain. They were totally incapacitated and weren’t able to make a single move.

In a few moments, the three of them were completely frozen in the void.

Then, a storm suddenly swept over and carried all of them towards the palace.

Darren and the two siblings couldn’t escape at all. They were in a helpless situation and all they could do was let the strong force pull them.

"Argh!"

Meanwhile, Darren felt that his body was about to be torn apart because of the immense pressure. While being dragged, all he could see was a flash of darkness.

After some time, the suppressing force had finally subsided. Darren regained his senses and found himself inside a hall where Wind and Rain were also with him.

The hall had a primitive simplicity but there was an eerie feeling hovering around. On the walls, vivid patterns of beasts could be seen.

As Darren looked in the front of the hall, his eyes opened wide upon seeing a mind-boggling scene.

Right in front of his eyes, there was a golden dragon, which was being restrained by twenty-four black iron chains as thick as arms.

The dragon was about a thousand feet long. He had golden scales all over his body, making him look very dazzling.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, the golden dragon opened his eyes. Darren could also see that his pupils were gleaming in golden brightness.

‘A five-clawed golden dragon?’

Before, Darren was able to see the shadow of a five-clawed golden dragon once. He remembered that it was very similar to the creature he was seeing in front of him right now.

"Roar!"

The five-clawed golden dragon opened his huge mouth and let out a deafening roar, making the entire hall tremble.

Crack! Crack!

Instantly, several bolts of thunder and lightning struck down the dragon’s body, creating massive cracks on it.

However, he wasn’t willing to submit. He immediately raised his head high and swayed his body violently.

Crack!

Then, a terrifying bolt of red lightning, which was a thousand feet thick, hit the five-clawed golden dragon. He let out a painful roar a few times before finally calming down.

Darren and the siblings were utterly shocked at this scene.

Even though the golden dragon sustained damages all over his body, the wounds healed in just a few moments. Right after, he looked at Darren with his cold eyes.

"You are a dragon too."

The golden dragon spoke in the human language, but his tone was void of any emotion.

"Not exactly…" Darren replied with a hint of hesitation.

"Show me your dragon form," the golden dragon said.

Darren recognized that the golden dragon had no enmity towards him and was just trying to confirm his identity. So, without further ado, he did what he was told.

"Hum!"

Darren began activating his dragon blood aura. In a flash, a dark dragon body emerged across the hall.

Currently, Darren’s dragon body was about tens of thousands of feet long, making it much larger than the five-clawed golden dragon. However, when Darren transformed, he purposely shrank his dragon body to the size that matched the golden dragon.
