The crimson world around them was gradually collapsing, and the blood-red sky curtain created by the ancient dragon gradually faded away. Dick felt that his body had returned to the ground, and the scene in front of him had reappeared.
Not far from Dick, Klein had a painful look on his face, and a ferocious wound had appeared on his chest. It seemed that he had left it when he fought with the magical beast, who he had chosen as the opponent.
However, Dick didn't see the magical beast, which was chosen as the fighting object by Klein. Perhaps it was because of the special mission of the Halidom. They had been transferred to different places of the challenge when they arrived here.
But now that the ancient dragon in charge of the challenge had died, their challenge should be over.
Dick walked to Klein's side and gently patted his shoulder. Klein shivered and opened his eyes, looking at Dick in confusion.
"Dick? Why are you here? I was fighting with the magical beast at the four-stage spirit level. Where is the magical beast now?"
Klein was panting heavily. The wound on his chest was constantly oozing blood. Dick frowned, took out herbs and pills from his storage ring, and put them in Klein's palm, indicating Klein to deal with his wound first.
"Don't worry. Your task should be completed. Because I have killed the ancient dragon who arranged level-four magical beast for you."
Klein's hand holding the herbs trembled violently and almost threw the precious herbs on the ground. His voice trembled and he looked at Dick in disbelief.
"Well, let me ask you, what do you mean by killing that ancient dragon? Is that kind of thing able to be killed?"
Dick smiled and nodded at Klein.
"It seems that my guess is right. The ancient dragon shadows will be projected into our hearts and transfer our souls to different places to fight against the magical beast. Don't worry. Although that kind of thing is only a soul, it can still be killed."
After answering Klein's question, Dick asked Klein to absorb the herbs by himself, and he looked at Herzog, who was still in a coma.
Obviously, the ancient dragon had been killed, but Herzog seemed to be still immersed in the illusion created by the ancient dragon. And Herzog's lips were constantly moving as if he was reading something.
Dick put his ear close to Herzog's mouth, trying to hear what he was saying.
"My daughter... My daughter, you! Anyone who dares to hurt my daughter must die!"
Dick barely heard a few words coming out of Herzog's mouth, and then Herzog suddenly rioted. He grabbed Dick's neck and threw Dick on the wall.
Blood-red light began to burn on Herzog's body, and dark dragon scales began to grow on his body. Then he unexpectedly opened his sharp claws toward Dick, trying to kill Dick directly.
"Dick!"
Klein also noticed the situation of Dick. He didn't expect that Herzog would explode at this time. Before he could put away the medicinal materials, he dragged his injured body and ran to Dick, trying to stop Herzog from hurting Dick.
But he stopped halfway. He rubbed his eyes and couldn't believe what he saw.
At the moment when Herzog pounced on him, Dick punched at the crook of Herzog's arm and threw Herzog to the wall on the other side when he released his strength.
"I don't know what happened to your daughter. But it seems that you are deeply affected by the illusion of that dragon. Let me help you out."
Dick moved his wrists and appeared behind Herzog in a flash. Then he punched the back of Herzog's head, and the surging soul power poured into Herzog's soul.
In Herzog's blood-red soul world, there was only a little purity left. After Dick's soul entered, he immediately imprisoned the blood-red soul power. And at the same time, he roared at Herzog's soul.
"Bastard, get up! Don't you want to see your daughter? How can you see her when you sleep here?"
Herzog's soul was restless, and Dick's soul was always left in Herzog's soul to remove the stained soul power for him.
About ten minutes later, Herzog finally regained his consciousness. He leaned against the wall and struggled to open his eyes. It took him a long time to see clearly Dick standing in front of him.
"Well, tell me, did you challenge that ancient dragon and be bewitched by the flames it created in the illusion? What did you see in the illusion? Did something happen to your daughter?"
Dick reached out a hand to Herzog and said.
"Yes, I was indeed sealed in the illusion, but why should I tell you about my daughter's situation? After all, you and I are enemies. Don't forget that our unity can only be maintained in the halidom."
Herzog took a look at Dick's hand. There was a trace of loss in his eyes. Then he opened Dick's hand and stood up with difficulty.
"Don't say that. At least we are still on the same side now."
Dick said to Herzog with a smile. He had a hunch this was something that could open up Herzog's psychological defense line. Perhaps through this matter, he could recruit the most powerful member of the dragon race in the first competition area.
"You must have felt it just now. My soul power is very strong. The reason why you can escape from the ancient dragon's illusion is that I can help you. If you are worried about your daughter's soul problem, I can help you."
Dick smiled and whispered in Herzog's ear.
Herzog was shocked and widened his eyes. His lips trembled as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he was unable to say anything.
"Well, if you don't want to tell me, I won't force you. I have killed the ancient dragon and completed a task in this maze. You'd better check whether your task is completed or not."
Dick waved to Herzog and Klein.
The seed had been buried in Herzog's heart. Perhaps in the future, it would take root and sprout and become his help.
