Chapter 439 Taboo Refinement: Body of Reflection

Compared with Ivan, the pure black dragon that Nicholas II turned into is much smaller.

When the wings are extended to the maximum, they only have a wingspan of about six meters. When standing on the ground, the highest point is less than three meters away from the ground...it is about the height of the ceiling in a general room, and it belongs to the level that you can shrink in the room with your head down

Not even as tall as the previous "baboon monster".

This is because the giant dragon that Ivan turned into... was the frost-scaled dragon that turned into "after Annan died at this moment".

When the Frostwhisperers die, they may turn into frost-scaled dragons due to the effect of the "Heart of Winter".

The size of the dragons they turned into was roughly related to their age before death.

Annan is only fifteen years old this year. The "dragon in the lake" projected by Nicholas II with Annan's body may even be reluctant to "juvenile dragon" in terms of the age of the giant dragon.

"—The Frostscale Dragon."

Nicholas II uttered a deep dragon language: "It's really good. The dragon's body...is so strong and healthy, this seemingly endless vitality, the frost element rushing in the blood...is worthy of being the most noble creature. "

But obviously, Nicholas is very satisfied with this body.

Annan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is it my reflection..."

This is a transformation spell of the golden rank, [Forbidden Formation: Body of Reflection].

Its name in ancient times was called "Legendary Creature Mirror Art".

Annan knew this spell because Salvatore had told him about this spell long before the duel with the spirit monk.

Among taboo refining, the most taboo is not "human body refining", but "self refining".

It is not the "transfiguration" of the shaping school, but an irreversible transformation spell belonging to the transformation school.

By actively destroying one's old body, one "refines oneself after death". Project one of the existence essences of a designated target onto one's own corpse... making oneself obtain the mirror image body of the other party and be reborn immediately.

Even for a wizard, this is an extremely extreme way of fighting.

As long as the spell fails, it is tantamount to committing suicide on the spot. Because you have to be sure that you are dead before the transformation spell can take effect... so it is a little more thorough than someone else killing them yourself, and possibly dying.

I am afraid that only wizards who are proficient in the idol school and possess the "resurrection ability" dare to use this method...using their own bodies as transformation materials to transform themselves into "enemies".

It is obviously impossible for Nicholas II to have this ability.

He really wanted to resist the [Silver Flame Bombardment], but it was actually not difficult.

You only need to burn your soul and consume your elemental power to avoid this attack by hiding under the sublime false body.

But Nicholas II did not want to use this more conservative approach.

He would rather commit suicide directly in the fire than admit that he fell into a disadvantage and his hole cards were consumed.

In other words, he would rather gamble with dogs than lose resources.

Treat the attacks you are enduring, enough to destroy yourself, as part of "refinement".

Like a flame scorching copperstone—

Like burning "ore", he destroyed his body in the fire without hesitation.

At the moment when the flame stops, use the concept of "calcination" to compare the old body to ore and the new body to red copper.

The moment the flame stops, it is the time of "finishing" and resurrection from death.

And Nicholas II obviously believed that among Annan's many concepts... only the characteristic of "dragon species" was the most powerful.

Therefore, he did not change into his current glorious form, nor did he borrow Annan's Heart of Winter, nor did he even change into a posture related to Tianche...

... Absolute elitism?

Annan laughed silently.

This is indeed quite in line with the aesthetics of Nicholas II.

He considers himself "the supreme being".

Compared with humans, elves are a more noble and perfect race. The elves have a tradition of worshiping dragons, and they respect dragons more than gods.

That's why Nicholas II thought that if he could turn into a giant dragon—even if it was just a false dragon, he could be called the road to greatness. The previous body was just the residue after "calcination".

But probably Nicholas II did not know.

Friendly troops are not counted—after all, there are special cases from the Kingdom of Light.

But for the BOSS, the "giant transformation" is an immediate death in most cases...

Facing the giant dragon whose scales were like coal, Annan swung another blow in the air.

The crystal-like shining sword marks flashed across the air, leaving behind a string of frost marks frozen in the air.

As if time stood still.

The Reflecting Dragon just raised his head and let out a deep breath.

The dim red dragon's breath instantly dyed the air in front of it—like a dark red rose silently blooming in the air.

The moment the sword mark hit "Rose", the invisible crimson brilliance suddenly dissipated, and it caught the sword without a sound.

The crystal sword mark that seemed to be able to freeze space and time was instead dyed into a magnificent crystal red bit by bit by the dragon's breath from bottom to top.

——Is this the power of the elements?

Annan was a little surprised.

But Nicholas II obviously hasn't launched the sublime pseudonym... Or is his sublime pseudonym rather special? Will Annan be unable to help but ignore its existence?

Annan thought about it, and avoided it sideways without hesitation.

Prevent the crystal red unknown element of "reverse flow" from spreading to himself.

The next moment, he raised the lightsaber, which was halved in length, in front of him.

As the light wings behind Annan suddenly unfolded, he fell downward at an extremely fast speed——

After Nicholas II spit out the first breath of the dragon in his life, he got used to the dragon's body a little bit, and chanted again:

"【Left Hummingbird】."

When his voice fell, the dark scales on his body fell off one after another.

Every scale turned into a dark blue living flame, like an upside-down feather or a counterattacking meteor, facing Annan from bottom to top!

Every living flame is a high temperature that can instantly burn through the scales of a giant dragon.

Annan's figure changed suddenly - the mist around him burst into light, leaving "afterimages" every time he suddenly changed his flight trajectory.

But that is not an afterimage that can only remain in the retina.

It is a real "crystal double".

This is the ability that Annan has just mastered.

The power of "Glory" and "Frost" combined, and every time Annan retreated or dodged to the side, he would leave a stand-in that radiated light in place. And only when the stand-in is shattered will Annan's new location be revealed.

Those deep blue living flames, are misguided every time. After dodging three times, Annan was already close to the top of Nicholas II.

Although Nicholas II had wings, he was still prostrate on the ground.

Because he had just acquired the form of a dragon, he didn't dare to fly in front of Annan—after all, "flying" was still quite unfamiliar to him.

So when the players arrived at Blood Butterfly Valley panting, they saw an unforgettable spectacle:

Behind Annan, there are only tentacle-like light wings, but he flies in the air at high speed like a Valkyrie; he is obviously a legal profession, but he is holding a silver thin lightsaber that looks more like a lance—and has a strong personality. With powerful wings, but still refusing to fly, the pitch-black giant... young dragons who are down-to-earth fight close to each other.

Nicholas II caught this right away.

While he is extremely arrogant, he is also quite cautious.

When he saw reinforcements appearing on Annan's side... Nicholas II's first reaction was to prevent them from joining the battlefield.

Even if they are just a bunch of silver.

"【Earth's Misfortune】, 【Heaven's Corolla】..."

Nicholas II began to chant in a low voice.

After Annan faltered with a "shot", he retreated quickly - then suddenly fell, the spear of light pierced the dragon's shoulder blade, almost digging out Nicholas II's right wing!

But Nicholas II withstood the blow, but still chanted stubbornly: "[Devil's Blood], [Innocent Soul], [Cat's Footsteps], [Fish's Breath]..."

A trace of deceit flashed in its longan eyes.

Catching the trace of malicious intentions, although Annan didn't realize what it was, he suddenly felt a very strong sense of crisis that was almost deadly.

Even though I don't know what it is...but after such a long chant, it's safer to retreat for the time being.

So Annan did not hesitate, and after leaving a phantom, he immediately drew his gun and retreated.

At this time, the chanting of the giant dragon was finally close to completion:

"—[Poison Dust of the Triple Great Hermes]."
