Chapter 922 Silver Dragon Visits
It was a blatant slaughter!
The number of dragonborn hiding in ambush, paired with the perfect geography of Deadmoon Valley, should have allowed them to fend off the attack of an army that was a few thousand strong.
Unfortunately, their enemies were no ordinary beings; they were an adept army that had traveled from a different plane.
Their ability wasn’t even on the same level as the dragonborn!
Consequently, the entire battle was like a game, an interesting hunting game. The goblins’ overwhelming bombardment decimated the powerful dragonborn army who had once possessed a dominating position in Lance. The only result at having paid such a hefty price was the destruction of a meager seven Archers.
Once the battle had concluded, both the dead and living dragonborn were transported back to the Mothership, where they were used as materials for voodoo beasts or flesh golems. Meanwhile, the seven destroyed Archers were sent back to the goblin workshop for dismantling and reassembly. Fifteen minutes later, seven brand-new Archers walked off the assembly line.
Some of these operations succeeded and killed goblins in the army, but most of them failed.
After all, with the eyeball machines scanning from the sky, any lifeform that attempted to approach the army paid with their lives.
Of course, not all dragon lords were so ‘wise’!
The fourth dragon lord territory that the adepts passed through was the land of a First Grade dragon. This idealistic and passionate First Grade dragon refused to submit before the might of the adepts. He risked his own life and attempted to assault the adepts with his fast flight speed and mighty dragon’s breath.
As such, he came, and he stayed, successfully turning into the first valuable spoil of the adept expedition army!
This First Grade dragon was beaten black and blue, then pinned to the deck of the Mothership with steel tools dozens of tons in weight. He cried day and night, but no rescue came for him.
Finally, the arrogance of the adept expedition army attracted their first formidable enemy!
…………
The army avoided most swamps, hills, and deserts under Gru’s lead, always traveling on plains or wastelands.
Today, the army of metal were camped and resting by a lake. Several loud dragon cries could be heard on the distant horizon.
The goblins that had been bathing or retrieving water from the lakeside quickly dressed and got into their goblin chariots. Meanwhile, the golem dragon also adjusted its stance and pointed its head toward the black dot on the horizon that was growing larger.
A short moment later, a wild gust of wind swept across the camp. A completely silver dragon with a prideful and elegant stance stopped above the golem dragon.
It was obvious that he was exceptionally fearful of the golem dragon, as he stopped half a kilometer away from the adepts.
This silver dragon beat his slender wings and hovered in the air pridefully as he silently assessed the giant metal dragon and the First Grade dragon now bound to the collosal machine. After a while, the silver dragon lifted his head and looked at the Mothership above the clouds. It was then that he broke the silence with his thunderous roar.
“Outsiders, what are you trying to do, exactly? Why are you invading the plane of us dragons? Do you want to torture our kind?”
Greem smiled from within the Mothership.
It was a Third Grade silver dragon!
It was probably because the might of the expedition army had exceeded the limits of the dragon lords’ ability to respond that they had sent this silver dragon to find out their intentions. The dragons would not be interested in the motives of any other weakling. They would simply wipe them out of existence with a dragon’s breath. Who would ever want to come out to such a rural place to ask a question if it wasn’t necessary?
The roar of flames rang out in the air as the tall silhouette of a human adept appeared on the head of the golem dragon.
