I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 275 The Dragon's Test

"You damned fellows, how dare you covet the blood of our dragon race? This is absolutely unforgivable!" The dragon was furious and roared to the ground. Its huge dragon breath was as fierce as a hurricane and as sharp as a knife and an axe, sweeping over with endless anger.

Alpha was not afraid, he raised his sword high, stepped forward, and faced the majesty of the dragon. He shouted loudly: "No, the one who took away your dragon blood was a scum among us humans, but I, Alpha, swear on the honor of a warrior that I will never go along with him!" His eyes were firm and resolute, as if he was showing the dragon his justice and courage.

In this tense confrontation, the air seemed to freeze. The roar of the dragon echoed in the valley, as if it was a challenge to Alpha. Alpha used his sword as a weapon to cut through the void, showing unparalleled momentum. He wanted to prove with his actions that he was a defender of justice, and he would not back down even in the face of the dragon's wrath.

However, just when Alpha was about to be roasted dry by the dragon's breath, the dragon suddenly stopped roaring. A hint of doubt appeared in its majestic eyes, as if it was thinking about something.

"Strange, your body actually has the breath of the source of darkness, but I can't feel the evil breath of that guy." The dragon's voice echoed in the air, with a hint of surprise. The anger just now was just a test of everyone, and the unity and unswerving spirit of these knights gathered together in front of him let the dragon know that they were not evil people.

"What is the source of darkness, Lord Dragon?" Alpha already had a rough guess in his mind. He thought that the black potion might be the source of darkness, but he didn't dare to draw a conclusion easily.

"The source of darkness is the guy outside. Originally, our Dragon Tomb existed to suppress the source of darkness. However, a hundred years ago, you humans accidentally broke into this place and took away a small amount of the source of darkness. In order to gain power, you dared to study that terrifying existence.

Over the years, you humans have come again, and last time you took away our dragon race's blood and strength, and broke the seal of the source of darkness, allowing it to enter and exit the sealed area freely." At this time, the giant dragon changed from its previous old decrepitude and actually recovered its normal mental state.

"In order to protect this place, our dragon clan will now send the strongest dragon to guard this place, and I am this year's dragon guardian." It turned out that the dragon was not only not on the verge of death, but was also the strongest dragon of the clan.

"Lord Dragon, what is the nature of the source of darkness? How should we deal with it?" The source of darkness outside posed a huge threat. It was almost immune to all physical attacks, and even Darwin's magic had almost no effect.

“The essence of the source of darkness is the collection of all the dark energy and negative emotions in this space, including fear, death, evil, blood, killing, etc. The dark sides of you humans, our dragon race, and other races are all gathered here.

They are immortal and keep growing, and we can't completely eliminate them. So, we can only seal them deep in the earth and use the fire in the earth's core to stop them from spreading. Unfortunately, they still escaped. "The dragon didn't know how to deal with it, after all, the source of darkness is now more powerful than ever before.

"So what should we do now?" Alpha asked anxiously, his brows knitted tightly, his eyes revealing deep worry. He knew very well how terrible the source of darkness was. If he couldn't find a way to deal with it in time, the whole world would fall into endless darkness and face a catastrophe.

The dragon was silent for a moment, as if thinking about something. Finally, it slowly said: "The only way we have now is to find the weakness of the source of darkness and seal it again. However, this is by no means easy. The source of darkness has existed for too long, and its power is unfathomable, like an endless dark abyss."

Alpha nodded. He knew it was a difficult task, but he had no intention of backing down. He clenched his fists tightly, and a firm look flashed in his eyes: "Lord Dragon, we must try. For the sake of our world and our future, we have no other choice."

The dragon seemed moved by Alpha's determination. It nodded slightly to show its agreement: "Okay, I will do my best to help you. However, you must know that this may be a long and difficult battle that requires us to make great efforts and sacrifices."

Alpha took a deep breath, his heart filled with a sense of mission: "I am ready. Lord Dragon, do you know where the weakness of the source of darkness is? Or do you have any clues to guide us?"

The dragon shook its head, a hint of helplessness in its eyes: "The weakness of the Source of Darkness is not obvious, it is hidden in the darkness deep inside. But I can tell you that although the Source of Darkness is powerful, it is not invincible. Its power comes from people's fear and negative emotions. As long as we can find a way to restrain these emotions, perhaps we can find the key to defeating it."

Alpha sat there quietly, his eyes becoming deep and blurred, as if he was caught in an endless vortex of thought. All the experiences in the past were like an epic movie, constantly playing in his mind.

He recalled the fear he had when facing difficulties and setbacks, and the despair that surged like a tide, which still frightened him. He knew that in order to defeat the source of darkness, he must first defeat the darkness in his own heart, which was an unfathomable swamp, and if he was not careful, he would be deeply trapped in it.

"Lord Dragon, I understand. What we need is not only courage and faith, but also the determination to face our inner fears and defeat darkness." Alpha's voice was firm and powerful, as if it contained endless power.

The dragon showed a relieved smile on his face: "You are right, courage and faith are the key to defeating darkness. But this is far from enough, we still need to unite all the forces that can be united to fight against darkness together."

Alpha's eyes revealed great determination: "I understand, I will re-seal the source of darkness and let light return to the earth." He stood up, emitting an unparalleled aura, as if the whole world was cheering for him.

However, just as he was about to embark on the journey, Alpha suddenly stopped, realizing that this would be an extremely difficult battle and that he needed to be fully prepared.

"Wait." Alpha called out to his holy comrades. "Lord Dragon, you are fooling us! If we rush forward like this, won't we just die in vain?" He finally reacted, and couldn't help but secretly sigh at the dragon's ability to fool people.

A smile flashed in the dragon's eyes: "Okay, you have passed my test. The power of the source of darkness is not just physical attack, its most terrifying is mental attack. You must have a firm will to resist its erosion."

There was a faint smile in the dragon's eyes, as if this was really a test for Alpha.

"Humans, three of you, including yourself, are emitting the aura of the Source of Darkness. You use the Source of Darkness to increase your strength. This is a sign of moving towards darkness. I must execute you." The roar of the dragon suddenly sounded, and the huge pressure and dragon breath surged again.

It was not until this moment that Alpha truly realized the unpredictable temper of the dragon race. Things in the world are unpredictable, and the speed at which the dragon's expression changes is comparable to that of a baby's.

"No, power itself has no distinction between good and evil. Evil exists in the hearts and souls of us spiritual creatures. If we use the power of darkness to defeat darkness, then our souls will still be bright; if we use the power of light to do evil, that is also an act of darkness." Alpha defended himself loudly. At the same time, Darwin, the caracal and Hoyce also stepped forward. Even the weakest monkey came forward without hesitation.

At this moment, Alpha's eyes were firm, and he firmly believed in his own point of view. He knew that power was just a tool, and how to use this tool depended on the user's heart and purpose. Alpha looked at the dragon, with a firm light flashing in his eyes, as if he was telling the dragon his belief.

Darwin, the wise scholar, said in a calm tone: "Lord Dragon, you should understand that the source of darkness is not inherently evil. It is just a force, a resource that can be utilized. We humans have the ability to harness this force and make it fight for justice."

The caracal demonstrates his point of view with agile movements: "We are not blindly pursuing power, but to protect ourselves and what we cherish. The source of darkness gives us strength and enables us to fight against evil."

Hoyes, the brave warrior, had power in his voice: "We will use the power of the source of darkness to defend the light and our dignity."

Alpha knows that the nature of power is neither good nor evil. It can be used to create good, or it can be used to bring destruction. The key lies in the intention and moral values ​​of the user. Just like a sword, it can be a weapon to protect others, or it can be a weapon to hurt others.

Darwin's ideas further emphasize the importance of human wisdom and choice. Humans have a responsibility to use power prudently and ensure that it is used for just causes.

The manul's perspective highlights the instinct of protection. People often seek power to protect themselves and the people and things they care about. The power provided by the source of darkness enables them to resist evil and maintain peace and justice.

Hoyes's words show the courage and sense of mission of the warriors, who are willing to use their strength to defend the light and protect society from the erosion of darkness.
