〈Fafnir〉.
It is an evil dragon recorded in Nordic mythology, and appears in works such as the Poetic Edda, the Prose Edda, the Volsung Saga, and the Ring of the Nibelungs. A legendary dragon species.
It is synonymous with evil that terrifies mankind.
The dragon's breath it exhaled has killed countless heroes.
It was not until the dragon-slaying hero Siegfried appeared and killed him with the holy sword that the evil dragon was finally killed.
However, even that hero, when facing this evil dragon, experienced countless dangers and several lucky stacks before killing it, bathing in its dragon blood, and thus obtained the immortality. body.
Such an evil dragon that combines many legends has now appeared in this world.
Summoned by Dark Joan using the as a medium.
"Hohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohohoho"
The roar of the dragon was like a storm, turning the air into a whirlpool. While churning endlessly, it expanded in all directions with the dark evil dragon as the center.
A heavy air wave arose.
The layers of impact exploded.
The legendary evil dragon let out a roar that could make the whole world tremble, causing the airflow to become disordered.
"!"
Faced with this roar, fear began to creep in.
Facing this sound wave, the soul becomes fragile.
As if on a conditioned reflex, Luo Zhen raised his hands to block in front of himself to prevent himself from being blown away by the oncoming roaring impact.
"senior!"
"Master!"
Fortunately, both Matthew and Joan of Arc reacted first and blocked Luo Zhen without any explanation. One raised his shield and the other raised the holy flag to block the oncoming storm.
But bathed in the storm caused by the roar, sweat still appeared on the faces of Matthew and Jeanne.
"It's actually Fafnir...!?"
Joan of Arc's expression looked unusually solemn.
"Legendary level dragon species...!"
Matthew also bit his lip.
Obviously, facing the ferocious monster in front of them, even the two girls who were servants felt indescribable pressure and crisis.
"That's not a character that ordinary servants can deal with! Be careful!"
Roman also made such a cry in Chaldea, which can only be said to be nonsense.
Black Joan of Arc stood in front of the evil dragon named Fafnir, with her back to the incoming sound waves, the evil flag with dragon patterns in her hands buzzing, and the expression on her face was equally cruel.
That appearance just confirms the nickname "Dragon Witch".
"Come! Let's kill!"
As if looking forward to seeing the next scene of destruction, Black Joan smiled very wickedly.
This is also true.
Although Mashu has gone through a lot of training and initially mastered the ability as a sub-server, she is just a girl after all and cannot compare to the legendary heroes and heroes. As a servant, she is still Still immature.
Needless to say, Joan of Arc's ability has been severely weakened. In terms of this appearance, it is also only half-baked.
Such two cavalry servants can only face ordinary threats. If they want to deal with the legendary evil dragon, even with Luo Zhen's support, it is almost impossible.
Even Luo Zhen himself came to this conclusion.
"If we implement our defense, we can still hold on."
Both Matthew and Jeanne are good at this type of battle, so if they defend well, even if they can't win, they won't lose.
But if you want to defeat Fafnir, it is undoubtedly a dream.
In this way, the scene of destruction that Black Joan expects to see will naturally appear.
If there are no subsequent changes.
"Roar…"
Fafnir, who stared at Luo Zhen and his party with a pair of violent and ferocious eyes, suddenly stopped roaring, and the ferocious dragon head hung down slightly as if it had lost its vitality.
This change made everyone present look stunned.
"This is…?"
"how…?"
Matthew and Jeanne were completely stunned.
"Wha...what?"
Caster also made a sound in astonishment.
"Fafnir!? What's going on!?"
Black Joan turned around sharply, looked at the abnormal evil dragon behind her, and raised her voice.
However, Fafnir lost all the violence and ferocity he had before. He seemed to be sleepy, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the dragon's head kept moving, appearing to droop more and more.
"Fafnir? Fafnir!"
A bad premonition appeared in Black Joan's heart, and she shouted the evil dragon's name loudly.
Unfortunately, the evil dragon named Fafnir finally seemed to be unable to hold on any longer and closed his eyes completely.
"Bang..."
Not long after, with a dull sound, the giant dragon lay down on the ground, and fell into a deep sleep right next to the big hole where it appeared.
The sound of snoozing slowly sounded from the dragon.
"..."
An atmosphere of deathly silence suddenly filled the air.
Matthew and Jeanne looked at each other.
Caster couldn't react at all.
Black Joan of Arc stared at the sleeping Fafnir, and finally turned around again and cast her sharp gaze on the only person on the field whose expression did not change.
"Did it work?"
Luo Zhen murmured these words and stretched out a hand.
"Whoosh!"
A black shadow suddenly emerged from Fafnir's body, flew towards Luo Zhen, and climbed onto his arm.
That's a snake.
A snake whose entire body is pitch black but somewhat transparent.
Seeing this scene, how could everyone present not know
Fafnir's anomaly is exactly what Luo Zhen did.
"… what have you done?"
Black Joan's expression was very gloomy.
Seeing this, Luo Zhen curled his lips and smiled.
"I would like to ask you, why do you think I didn't do anything?"
Luo Zhen said this.
"I've obviously seen that dragon and am aware of its threat, but I still came here. Don't you think I must have some way to deal with it?"
after all…
"I knew that you had summoned a real dragon species two days ago."
Luo Zhen said so.
As early as two days ago when he attempted to attack Orleans, Luo Zhen already knew that even if he could successfully attack Orleans, he would have to face two dangers, even if he did not count the threats posed by Black Joan and his party.
Of these two dangers, one has witnessed it with his own eyes and the other has known about it for a long time.
Among them, the first danger is the threat Luo Zhen witnessed in this castle, the real dragon Fafnir summoned through the "Holy Grail".
This is a dragon species that exists in legends, a creature that is at the pinnacle of fantasy species and may reach the realm of mythical beasts.
Except for dragon slayers like Siegfried, only heroes who can successfully defeat such monsters can only be those who are truly at the top of the Servants. Even a being like King Arthur can successfully defeat Fafnir. Still an unknown.
In this case, this danger naturally needs to be addressed.
This is something Luo Zhen has been considering for a long time.
Therefore…
"Because of this, when that dragon was lying down and sleeping in front of me, do you think I would do nothing?"
Luo Zhen lifted the snake on his hand and showed it in front of everyone.
"At that time, I had already thrown the familiar onto the dragon."
This is why Fafnir fell into a deep sleep.
