Chapter 1125: Chapter 1125
The territories of the four Dragon Kings were very regularly distributed, with the Holy Dragon King at the center of the world, atop a high mountain. It was said that apart from his own Flying Dragon Legion, there were no other members, and even Sub-Dragons had been driven to faraway places.
The other three Dragon Kings resided at three different corners of the world, forming an equilateral triangle. The very centers of their respective territories marked these spots. The Green Dragon King dwelled within a forest, the Black Dragon King in a valley, and the Golden Dragon King on another high mountain.
These three Dragon Kings ruled over all the living beings of the world. Humans were essentially their slaves, or slaves among slaves, and could only help them create value, gathering treasures, and the like.
The Dragon Men and Dragon Beasts, for their part, served as lower echelons attending to the Dragon Clan.
"Master, should we go directly for the most powerful one, or start with the weakest?" Lin Yushi was eager to try.
Du You shook his head, "No, our first target is the Black Dragon King."
Before the two could express their confusion, Du You began to explain, "Don’t forget that our strength has not yet reached its peak. My Dragon Clan bloodline is still at tier four. The Black Dragon King’s bloodline is most similar to mine, and there’s a great chance that killing him could elevate my bloodline level. By that time, facing the Holy Dragon King should be about right."
For some reason, Du You always felt a tremendous pressure coming from the Holy Dragon King. Going directly to him might mean his own failure. Additionally, alarming the enemy and stirring the grass would not be to his advantage.
"My plan is to assault three places separately, then turn their subordinates into Demonic Flame Skeletons; only then can we proceed with our plan," Du You outlined on the map as the two sisters nodded slightly.
"If that’s the case, then let’s set out," Lin Yushi could hardly contain herself.
The group did not launch an attack within the Green Dragon King’s territory but rather left the city quietly and flew from high above towards the adjacent territory of the Black Dragon King. Despite dragons being the Mid-air Kings, their numbers were too few, and most were members of the Flying Dragon Legion. They couldn’t possibly roam everywhere, so the skies were essentially safe.
Not long after, the trio arrived at the place. "Let’s start by attacking from the outside. It would be even better if we can attract them to attack us proactively," Du You said.
Without summoning his Summoned Beasts, Du You and the two sisters approached the position of the first Earth Dragon Legion. There were five Earth Dragon Legions at this place, comprised of various Dragon Beasts and Dragon Men, interspersed with higher-tier Sub-Dragons.
Regrettably, such forces were not considered opponents in Du You’s eyes.
Lin Yushi made the first move, her Thunderstorm Arrows slaying several Dragon Beasts. Then, countless Demon Extermination Spirits stood up. After hunting flying creatures, the Demon Extermination Spirits would sprout two wings, enabling them to fly through the skies.
Although Dragon Beasts had high resistance to Magic, they were helpless in the face of tier-five attacks.
"Well done." Du You waved his hand, unleashing a Dark Flame Arrow Array that enveloped all in sight.
As for Lin Yucha, to preserve the corpses, she didn’t use the whirlpool arrow, a skill of massive destructive power, but instead opted for Explosive Poison Snipe. Terrible toxins spread rapidly, leaving the Dragon Beasts utterly defenseless. They often struggled for a moment before succumbing to the poison—a death considered deeply shameful for Dragon Beasts.
Du You didn’t care much for the ones who slipped through the net; it would be best if high-tier dragons were drawn out by them.
"The numbers of this Earth Dragon Legion seem a bit too few," Lin Yushi remarked of the now-emptied legion. No wonder; such a so-called grand legion had merely twenty thousand enemies.
"It’s not too few, considering these are considered top combat forces in this world."
Having so many tier-three beings and one tier-four Sub-Dragon in charge was enough to sweep away everything below their level in this world. To maintain dominance, this structure was quite solid.
Du You descended and activated Dark Spirit Light, then began Summoning Demonic Flame Skeletons. There were quite a few tier-three Dragon Beast corpses here, which allowed him to create numerous level-21 Demonic Flame Skeletons.
Even as the corpses were used up, Du You saw no signs of Dragon Beasts from other legions coming to aid.
"Strange, none of those that ran away conveyed the message?"
Lin Yucha said, "Perhaps they’ve been too complacent for too long and can’t believe such a thing would happen. They might think it’s a prank." Such incidents were not uncommon in Other Worlds, with many similar cases recorded.
Beings that had reigned supreme in a world for too long, even when attacked by Professionals, might think it was no big deal, sometimes treating it as a minor diversion.
Such individuals often met a miserable end, and for the prideful race of dragons to display such behavior was actually quite normal.
"It looks like we’ll have to pay a visit in person," Du You said. Having just hunted down those Dragon Beasts and Sub-Dragons, Du You could feel his own blood begin to boil. Or rather, a special force in his blood. He knew it was the power of the Shadow Dragon bloodline, promising advancement with further hunting.
The party flew toward the next site, which was too easy to scout out.
Perhaps due to excessive complacency, the locations where the Dragon Clan legions and even the Dragon Kings themselves resided were common knowledge. In the eyes of ordinary people, these places were forbidden lands, and everyone committed these locations to memory.
Just like before, when they arrived, there was little to no vigilance among the Earth Dragon Legions. The Sub-Dragons and Dragon Beasts from the previous massacre appeared, but no matter how they explained, no one believed them. Official source ıs 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩
"Hahaha, stop joking. In this world, who would attack us, the Dragon Kings?"
"Psh, the Dragon Kings are too busy sleeping on treasures to bother. Who would carelessly attack? The Dragon Kings are all brothers."
"Exactly, if anyone has the guts, let’s see them attack us. As for humans, what human has that kind of power?"
Then, they beheld the sight they had long awaited. From the skies, countless black arrows alight with flames descended. Then a vast swath of red Thunderstorm Arrows covered the area, instantaneously slaughtering a multitude of Dragon Beasts.
The sudden onslaught left those who had been living in comfort for so long, and who had never experienced battle since joining the legion, utterly bewildered. By the time they came to their senses and attempted to organize a resistance, it was already too late.
What followed was a repeat of the obliteration of the first Earth Dragon Legion, a mere replica of their previous battle.
