The Mighty Dragons Are Dead-Chapter 1104 - 1101: Murals of the Past

By then, all the Dragon Knights of the Legendary Continent combined might not be a match for Liszt.

He could then directly roll over all the empires and kingdoms of the Legendary Continent, purify the seas, and bring the Mafa Continent under his rule as well. Establishing a legacy undying through the ages, making the name “Liszt Flame” the noblest title of this era, passed down through generations.

“Hehe.”

Ach held a Hand Magic Tube, constantly observing the details of each dragon, in preparation for The Pictorial Compendium of Dragons.

Liszt turned his gaze to the underground hall; it was empty except for the dragon-shaped stone sculptures and the altar, leaving only the walls. However, when he concentrated on the walls, he abruptly realized that they were not devoid of content—they were adorned with giant murals.

The murals were not painted but created in relief, which made them less conspicuous.

The entire circular wall was one continuous mural, circling 360 degrees. At the point where it began and ended, there was a section of Moon Language narrative.

“Ach, come here, let’s study this mural.” Liszt called Ach over immediately.

Ach was quite proficient in Moon Language, swiftly translating the Moon Language narrative, which seemed like each segment had its own special melody and charm.

“In the beginning, humans lived like beasts; later, they learned to use tools and rites.”

“They grew, pondering the future.”

“From the will of humans, the Great Dragon awakened, to continue the order.”

“When the will wavered, the Great Dragon disintegrated; flesh and bones became Elves, soul became Giant Dragons; Elves spread as all things, Giant Dragons embodied power.”

“Sacred Dragons to reinforce the origin, Evil Dragons to purify pollution, Elemental Dragons to command weather, Gemstone Dragons to embellish time and space, Metal Dragons to diffuse resources.”

“There are Magic Dragons that operate the Magic Web, ruling over the cycles of the Sun and Moon, and therein lies Magic as well.”

“Mafa of the Sun, Legend of the Moon, both have the Magic Dragon as their totem, ceaselessly living, the stars shift and battle in the sky.”

The narrative of the Moon Language ended here, but it brought a huge impact to Liszt and Ach. Although the Moon Language from ancient times had some stumbling, it did not hinder understanding their meaning.

Liszt instantly had many questions: “Was the Great Dragon born from the will of humans? And after the Great Dragon disintegrated, there were Elves and many Giant Dragons? The Magic Dragon must be the Dragon of the Magic Web, the totem of the Moon Empire and Sun Empire? This sounds too… mythological.”

Ach’s gaze shifted from the Moon Language narrative to the mural, contemplative: “Brother, perhaps this story is true.”

Liszt did not immediately delve deeper: “Forget it, let’s first see what the mural depicts.”

He and Ach illuminated the mural with their Hand Magic Tubes, viewing it from right to left in a clockwise direction. The mural, complete in its entirety, primarily featured Dragons, with humans merely part of the symbolic elements.

The mural began with a Magic Dragon emanating threads like a spider’s web, connecting many cities on the ground, with Magicians floating above the cities, casting Magic. There were also some Dragons flying around the cities, creating an atmosphere of peace and tranquility.

One large city had the Moon hanging over it, while another had the Sun.

However, soon three Dragons began attacking humans. According to their sculpted images, they were the Shadow Dragon, the Cursed Dragon, and the Silent Dragon.

Consequently, the mural depicted humans overcoming these three Evil Dragons with the aid of other Dragons, especially the Magic Dragon. The Silent Dragon died to the north of the two cities, the Cursed Dragon in the sea between the two cities, and the Shadow Dragon around the city under the Sun.

The mural then transitioned into a new era, seemingly tainted by the three Evil Dragons, with heavy casualties in the Sun city and the sea.

Monsters emerged from the midst.

The Magic Dragon prepared to exhale Dragon Breath, aimed at the sea, the far north, and the monsters in the Sun city.

The human Magicians of the Moon city seemed to be aiding the Magic Dragon, but another group from the Moon city confronted them.

Subsequently, these dissenters, in alliance with the five Sacred Dragons, created a Magic Array atop a high mountain.

The Magic Array shot directly towards the Moon.

After discovering this, the Magic Dragon led a large group of Gemstone Dragons, Elemental Dragons, Metal Dragons, and surrounded the five Sacred Dragons. The Jade Dragon, Formless Dragon, Twilight Dragon, and Smoke Dragon were all killed, with only the Immortal Dragon apparently escaping to an unknown location.

The Magicians of the Moon city began to celebrate victory.

But then a Dragon was born on the Moon, which could clearly be seen as the Moon Dragon previously identified in the Dragon-shaped Stone Sculptures. The Moon Dragon flew out from the Moon and came to hover over the Moon city.

The Magic Dragon once again united with many Dragons and the Magicians of the Moon city to face the Moon Dragon.

Thus far.

The mural ended.

“This… it seems to be a story from before the fall of the Moon Empire. Ach, do you understand it?” Liszt asked.

Ach nodded: “Brother, Ach has made sense of the mural, combined with the poetry of the Moon Language we encountered earlier, it seems the Ancient Mages were introducing the history of the world’s origin.”

“Tell me what you’ve figured out, let’s see if it matches my understanding.”

“Mhmm.”

Ach began summarizing her comprehension: “After the birth of humanity, the great Dragons were born in accordance with the will of humans, but humans soon fell into war and other troubles, their will began to waver, and the great Dragons thus disintegrated. Then they split into Elves and Giant Dragons to help humans.”

At this time on the Legendary Continent and Mafa Continent, humans established two civilizations with the Magic Dragon as their totem, continuously developing Magic.

But soon after, Evil Dragons began to invade.

The Magic Dragon, many Dragons, and humans joined forces to slay the three Evil Dragons, but monsters contaminated by the Evil Dragons began to roam. The Magic Dragon planned to clear the monsters, while the Magicians of the Moon Empire were divided into two factions; one firmly intent on eradicating the monsters, and the other seemed to want to protect them.

The protecting faction received help from the Sacred Dragons, built the Moon Teleportation Circle, and went to the Moon.

The Sacred Dragons were then slaughtered by the Magic Dragon and others, with only the Immortal Dragon escaping. Afterwards, the Moon Dragon was born, returned to this planet, hence the Magic Dragon and the Moon Dragon, namely the eradication faction and the protection faction, began the decisive battle.

She paused.

Then Ach added: “The Moon Dragon certainly died, but its power spread to all Elves, assisting in their evolution, maybe it’s preparing to resurrect from the body of the Elf King… The Magic Dragon was gravely injured, it must be the Dragon of the Magic Web which brother and Ach saw, constantly sleeping, causing the Magic Web to wither… The Moon Empire also perished in this battle.”
