Chapter 923 Otherworld Poison Battles
The silver dragon couldn’t help but narrow his eyes and stare at the newcomer.
“Who are you, sir, and what should I call you?”
After the fire dispersed, Greem landed steadily on the head of the magical golem dragon.
The dragon had two long metal horns on its head, with a small twenty-meter square platform in front of them. Greem landed firmly on that platform and looked at the silver dragon with a smile on his face
A Third Grade human adept.
The silver dragon didn’t require any detection spells to know the identity of the adept. He quickly determined the opponent’s power and attributes based on the intensity of the flames created by the teleportation spell.
Moreover, he also smelled the stench of a dragonsoul curse on the adept. Many dragons had fallen victim to his hands. Otherwise, the dragonsoul curse lingering around him wouldn’t be so thick and repulsive.
It was too quiet here. Clearly, the silver dragon had already taken off.
Greem gazed at the giant cave nearby and turned to look at Billis, who was standing behind him.
Billis understood his intentions immediately. He stepped forward, and tens of thousands of black beetles swarmed out of his robe and charged into the cave in a black tide.
A short moment later, the black cave trembled and shook, the sounds of elementium explosions echoing outward.
Billis let out a grunt and said, “There’s nothing left in the dragon’s cave save for plenty of elementium traps and magical contraptions. It seems like that fellow intended for us to have a bad time here.”
Billis had lost nearly twenty percent of the bugs he had sent out, cloaking his face in a dark gloom.
“Hmph! Does he think he can make us retreat with just some traps? Contact Gonga and tell him to raze this mountain!”
A short moment later, after Greem and his adepts had boarded the Mothership and left the mountain, the lone peak in the clouds shook furiously. Then, it slowly collapsed amidst a thunderous, earth-splitting roar.
News of Storm’s Peak being forcefully destroyed by the adepts quickly spread out.
This time, those who were still ignorant of the might of the adept expedition were finally jolted awake.
Even a Third Grade dragon lord had to flee in fear of the enemy and lose his lair in the process. It wasn’t hard to imagine how powerful the enemy was!
For the rest of the journey, there were no more incompetent fools who dared to disrupt the adept’s army.
Moreover, the dragons weren’t fools either. Based on the adepts’ marching route, they quickly figured that their target was the territory of Fourth Grade Dragon Lord Toril.
That was what shocked and confused them tremendously!
What were they counting on? A group of human adepts with no more than Second and Third Grade abilities dare challenge a Fourth Grade dragon lord?
It was simply unbelievable!
Were they counting on that strange metal dragon?
The dragons that had been evicted from their homes quickly gathered together, believing they had found the heart of the issue. They started using all the means available to them to investigate the power of the metal dragon.
Of course, no dragon would be willing to risk their own lives for such an investigation, but they were more than happy to send some dragonborn guards and high-grade Dragon Cultists for the job!
Thus, a good half of Lance was stirred into action by the orders of the dragon lords, along with a massive bounty. Powerful dragonborn warriors and native creatures with unique skills swarmed toward the adept expedition army and started to assault their forces.
And who would have known? There were indeed some unique individuals amongst these talents that had been gathered from all over Lance.
Some of these individuals excelled at hiding their life signs. They would hide near the goblin camps and ambush the goblins when they left to fetch water. It caused decent casualties to the goblins.
However, the frequent patrols of the goblin chariots also inflicted substantial damage to the enemy. The native elites had to pay the price of a dozen lives on average to kill a single goblin.
Some individuals who were skilled at poison also attempted to poison the goblin’s water source. Unfortunately, the army possessed a comprehensive testing system and quickly discovered their plot. With the potion masters in the army, there was no chance of any goblins being poisoned to death.
After all, the poisoners of Lance were more like voodoo doctors when compared to the potion masters that had been systematically trained in the World of Adepts!
Their knowledge and abilities were not even on the same level. After a single round of exchanges between the two parties, the potion masters successfully drove out the Lance natives and foiled their attempts at poisoning.
It also reminded Greem that now was the adepts’ turn to spread their poison!
