Chapter 847 - The Passing Years



Chapter 847 The Passing Years

Greem had gone into seclusion once again!

This news was only spread to the higher-ups of the Crimson Clan. The outside world had no idea of this.

As for the purpose of this seclusion, only a few people knew of it.

This seclusion took up eight years.

…………

“Lady Mary is back!”

“Lady Mary is back!”

As these magic energy cannons took a long time to charge up–and an even longer time to cool down–Gazlowe had no choice but to create five of them. When the dragonflight invaded, he used the magic energy cannons to bombard from a distance. The giant magic energy cannons could be reserved for continuous attacks at a close range.

A wild flurry of untrained yet powerful blows could even kill a trained master of the martial arts!

Such an indestructible metal city combined with the overwhelming firepower defense immediately caused the dragonflight to run into a wall and face defeat in front of the giant cannons.

In this battle, the Crimson Clan obtained seven dragons, one of which was a Second Grade!

No one knew if it was the goddess of fortune possessing her or the Second Grade dragon being extremely unfortunate, but Mary managed to Embrace the Second Grade dragon on the very first try. She had turned it into a Blood Dragon.

This way, apart from two Second Grade blood knights and three Second Grade blood elves beneath Mary, she now also had a Second Grade blood dragon. It turned her vampire army into the largest force in the Crimson Clan!

In all honesty, if it weren’t for Greem and Mary’s intimate relationship, even he would have to start feeling concern over such an overly powerful subordinate.

Mary had just led her underlings into the magical hall, and the shouts and screams of the apprentices rang out from behind like a tidal wave. With the combined strength of two blood knights and the blood dragon, a Second Grade dragon completely wrapped in magical chains was lifted through the tower gates.

These days, Lady Mary always reaped rewards when she went on excursions in Lance. Still, most of her spoils were small First Grade dragons. A living Second Grade like today’s was pretty rare. It meant that the Crimson Clan would now have an additional million magical crystals of income!

“You, you, and you; throw this earth dragon into a prison and make sure it is properly locked up. See which foolish client might fancy it. You, send the gems and materials in the sack to Lana and have her work harder to appraise all of the stuff. Remember, tell her that if she dares to mistake another Third Grade Morningstar Gem for a glowstone and send it to Snorlax’s place, I will personally hang her from the wall and teach her a lesson.”

Mary opened her broad bat wings and floated to the top of the hall. Here, she could see all the members gathered here.

The ones she had appointed to lift the dragon to the prison were all body-refining apprentices that the clan was cultivating. They all had the power of an advanced apprentice or pseudo-adept. Only muscle monsters like them could lift such a heavy Second Grade earth dragon.

The clan appraiser, Lana, rushed into the hall and happened to hear Mary’s criticism of her. Her face immediately turned red as fire. However, when her eyes shifted to the multiple sacks on the blood dragon’s back, a cold sweat rolled down her face. She couldn’t help but scream out loud, “So…so many.”

It would have been alright if they were everyday items. With Lana’s adept-level Spirit, an apprentice-level Identify would deal with the issue. However, if they were magical items, every one of them had to be appraised with an adept-level Identify or Magic Item Discovery to obtain a vague answer of what it was.

However, there was so much of the dragon’s treasure here. How many adept-level Identifies would she need to use to appraise all of them?

When the first few dragon hoards were brought back, Gargamel the Crimson majordomo had to specially open up a fountain of magic energy from the energy room to Lana’s room. She had to drink magic energy potions whenever she ran out of power and drink a Spirit activity potion whenever she ran out of Spirit. Even then, it took her fifteen days and nights of continuous work to complete her mission.

However, the dragon hoard this time was two to three times larger than the last. The quality of the magical items was also much higher than in the past. This…Lana would probably have to appraise to her very death to finish the mission, wouldn’t she?!

The next instant, this adept-level appraiser that the Crimson Clan had specially trained and cultivated betrayed an expression of tragic sorrow as if life was more painful than death.
