Chapter 26: Quark Gummy Dragon Breath

The footsteps of the Blood Race were getting closer and closer, each step seemed to step on the tips of everyone's hearts, and a tense atmosphere spread out in the base. Kyle, Elena, Lucien and the Elf Queen stood at attention, their eyes revealing firmness and determination.

Kyle gripped the Geiger counter with both hands, the indicator lights on the instrument flashing frantically, showing the rapidly changing energies around him. His eyes stared tightly in the direction of the entrance, silently calculating the time of the arrival of the Bloods in his mind, ready to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy at the critical moment. "No matter how many Blood Clans come, we can't retreat." He said in a low voice, his voice was soft, but it was permeated with an unquestionable fortitude.

Elena closed her eyes slightly and concentrated on mobilizing the energy of the Blood Crystal Matrix. Her long, silver-white hair fluttered gently as the energy surrounded her, and the Klein Bottle Topology iris in her left eye shimmered intensely, bringing everything around her into the range of her quantum senses. "I can feel their energy fluctuations, there are quite a few of them. Be careful everyone, they may be prepared." She warned, her tone calm but unable to hide the caution in it.

Lucien bared his sharp fangs, the wolf claws of his hands waving in the air with a whirring sound. His silver-gray wolf ears were raised high, always catching even the slightest sound. "Hmph, I'm not afraid of how many Blood Clans come! Let them taste our power today!" He roared, his body exuding a strong feral aura, filled with eagerness for the upcoming battle.

The Elf Queen gently plucked the strings of the Cosmic String Harp, emitting a low and stirring note. The notes seemed to carry some sort of mysterious power, forming an invisible shield around the crowd. "My harp can provide you with some assistance, and I hope it can help you." She said, her eyes revealing determination and trust.

Soon, a group of Blood Clansmen rushed into the base. At the head of the group was a tall, cold-faced Blood Clan member, whose eyes flashed with a blood-red light and his body radiated a powerful aura. "You intruders, how dare you ruin our plans! Today, none of you will leave alive!" He said viciously.

Kyle responded undaunted, "It's your plots that won't succeed! Today, is your end!" With that, he fired a powerful beam of energy from his Geiger Counter, shooting it straight at the Blood Clan leader.

The leader of the Blood Race let out a cold smile and lightly waved his hand, a black energy barrier instantly appeared, blocking Kyle's attack. "Is that all you've got?" He taunted.

Seeing this, Elena manipulated the Blood Crystal Matrix to release a wave of cold energy, instantly forming a field of absolute zero around the Bloods. "Taste this!" She shouted.

The Blood Clans retreated, trying to dodge the cold energy. However, a few Blood Clans reacted a little slower and were frozen in place, a thick layer of frost forming on the surface of their bodies.

Lucien took the opportunity to charge up, swinging his wolf claws and launching a fierce attack on the Bloods. His movements were agile and ferocious, and each attack carried great power. "Die!" He snarled as his wolf claws sliced through the air, bringing up a green glow of quantized wolf venom.

For her part, the Elf Queen continued to play her harp, and the notes from the strings intertwined in the air, forming a strange ray of light that shot towards the Bloods. These rays of light seemed to be able to interfere with the Blood Clan's energy, causing their movements to become sluggish.

However, the Blood Clans were not willing to be weak either. They cast their abilities one after another and engaged in fierce battles with Kyle and the others. Some Blood Clans launched black energy balls, while others manipulated dark matter to attack, and the entire base was instantly thrown into chaos.

During the battle, Kyle realized that the Bloods seemed to be more powerful than they expected. "They seem to have gotten some kind of power boost, everyone be careful!" He shouted.

Elena concentrated on sensing the energy of the Bloods and realized that their power was linked to a mysterious particle. "They may be working on quark gluon plasma, a particle that gives them great power." She said.

Just then, suddenly, a deafening roar came from the depths of the base. It was as if the sound could penetrate one's soul, causing everyone's bodies to tremble.

"What is that sound?" Lucien asked in surprise, stopping what he was doing and looking warily in the direction the sound was coming from.

Before they could react, a huge creature rushed out from the darkness. It was huge, covered in black scales, its eyes flashed red, and its mouth spewed out burning flames, which seemed to be interspersed with strange energy fluctuations.

"This ... is a Topology Defect Dragon!" Elena exclaimed, her eyes filled with shock.

The Topaz Defect Dragon was an extremely powerful creature, and its appearance made the situation even more critical. It spread its huge wings and lunged towards the crowd, the powerful air currents blowing the surrounding items in all directions.

A smug smile appeared on the Blood Clan leader's face when he saw the dragon appear, "This is the Topsy Defective Dragon we awakened, and it will wipe you all out!"

Kyle quickly adjusted his Geiger counter and fired an energy beam in an attempt to stop the dragon's attack. However, the energy beam hit the dragon's scales with only a splash of sparks, doing little to no damage to it.

Lucien roared and rushed towards the dragon. He swung his wolf claws and grabbed the dragon's body fiercely. However, the dragon's scales were incredibly hard, and the wolf claw only left a few shallow marks on it. "Damn it, why are these scales so hard!" He gritted his teeth.

Elena manipulated the Blood Crystal Matrix and released various powerful energies to attack the dragon, but they were all easily resisted by the dragon. "This won't work, we have to think of a solution!" She said anxiously.

The Elf Queen plays her harp and tries to calm the dragon with the power of music, but the dragon seems unaffected and still attacks the crowd in a frenzy.

During the intense battle, Lucien realized that the dragon's weakness seemed to be in its throat area. "Elena, Kyle, I've realized that its throat is weaker, let's focus our efforts there!" He shouted.

Kyle and Elena immediately understood what he meant, and they worked with Lucien to focus their energy on the dragon's throat in coordination with each other. Kyle fired a powerful beam of energy with his Geiger Counter, while Elena released a wave of energy with her Blood Crystal Matrix, and Lucien infused quantized Wolfsbane energy into the attack.

Three powerful energies struck the dragon's throat at the same time, and the dragon let out a roar of pain. Its body trembled violently, and the flames spewing from its mouth became even more violent. But it wasn't knocked down, instead, it became even angrier and its attacks became even more frantic.

"Looks like we didn't attack enough!" Kyle shouted, as he increased the energy output of the Geiger counter.

Elena also went all out, and the light of the Blood Crystal Matrix became even more dazzling. "Let's go harder!" She shouted.

Just then, the Elf Queen played a stirring melody, and the strings of her harp emitted an intense glow. The rays of light gathered together and formed a huge column of energy that shot towards the dragon's throat.

With the concerted efforts of the crowd, the dragon finally couldn't support itself and collapsed to the ground. Its body rolled over on the ground, sending up a huge cloud of smoke.

"Whew, finally beat it." Kyle let out a sigh of relief, his body a little weak from the overuse of energy.

Lucien walked over to the dragon's body and looked at the huge dragon with emotion in his heart. "This dragon is really powerful, if we didn't work together, we really wouldn't be its match." He said.

Just as Lucien was about to leave, he suddenly realized that there was a scale on the dragon's body that was very special. This scale flashed with a strange light and seemed to contain a powerful force. With a movement in his heart, he secretly hid this scale. "This piece of scale might be useful to us." He thought secretly.

Elena frowned slightly as she watched Lucien's movements, but didn't say anything. She knew that Lucien probably had his reasons for doing so.

Kyle, on the other hand, checked the surrounding area and realized that the Bloods had taken the opportunity to flee after the dragon appeared. "Those Bloods are pretty fast runners." He said.

The Elf Queen sighed softly, "Although we defeated the Topsy Defective Dragon this time, the Blood Clan's plot has not been completely stopped. We must continue to be careful." She said.

Elena nodded in agreement, "That's right, and we still have to figure out what the Bloods are really working on, they must have a greater purpose for awakening the Topo Defective Dragon."

Lucien chimed in, "I'll have the werewolf pack continue to investigate the movements of the Bloods and let you know as soon as I have any news."

Kyle looked at the dragon's corpse and said thoughtfully, "The appearance of this dragon has given me a new insight into the study of the Bloods. The dragon's breath seems to contain the essence of strong interaction forces, which could be the key to our understanding of the power of the Bloods."

Elena stepped forward and said, "Perhaps we can start with this dragon's breath and study the source of the Blood's power. But we need a safe place to do the research."

Lucien thought for a moment and said, "There is a secluded place in the werewolf territory that is good for research. We can go there."

Thus, the group took the sample of Dragon's Breath and headed to the werewolf territory. Along the way, they were careful for fear of encountering another attack from the Blood Clan.

When they arrived at the research site in the werewolf territory, Lucien's people gave them a warm welcome. Lucien gave a sample of the Dragon's Breath to the wise men of his clan for them to study.

In the course of their research, the Wise Men discovered some amazing clues. They found the remains of human civilization in the Dragon Mound, which seemed to be inextricably linked to the Bloods' research.

"These ruins look ancient, and they contain words and symbols we have never seen before." A wise man said.

Kyle looked at the relics and was filled with doubt, "What the hell is going on here? Could it be that the Blood Clan was conducting some kind of research across time and space?"

Elena, on the other hand, was deep in thought, "Perhaps these relics will help us uncover the secrets of the Bloods and find a way to stop their plot."

Lucien looked at everyone and said, "No matter what, we must find out the truth. As long as the Blood Race's conspiracy is not stopped, the world will not have peace."

However, what they didn't know was that the Blood Clan was plotting even crazier plans after escaping. And the relics of human civilization they found in the Dragon Mound hide many unknown dangers and secrets. Can they find the key clues from these relics and succeed in stopping the Bloods' plot? The road ahead is full of challenges and uncertainties, but the hearts of Kyle, Elena and Lucien are full of firm beliefs, and they will continue to go forward to explore the truth and guard the peace of the world.
