Chapter 275: Reward at the Fingertips

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The Dark Dragons were powerful both in their physical abilities and magic, but the alliance of the major factions also had exceptional abilities!

The first to take action was not the Church, which had the largest formation, nor the Dark Association, but the mysterious Bellimore family. They charged toward the stone statue a few hundred steps away as they shot out sharp auras from their swords, attacking the Dark Dragons hovering lower in the sky.

Seeing the Bellimore family approach quickly, a Dark Dragon swooped down from the sky. It had wanted to lift up the swordsman leading the group and tear him in two. Unexpectedly, a swordsman wearing a red cloak let out a shout as he jumped onto the shoulders of his clansmen, then high up into the air. His sharp longsword left a deep wound on the abdomen of the Dark Dragon.

Roar…

In intense pain, the injured Black Dragon grabbed the swordsman in the red cloak with its claws. However, just as it was about to take to the skies and tear the detestable swordsman in two, the Spellcasters of the Church shot out a rain of Holy Light Arrows. The arrows landed straight in the wound on the dragon’s abdomen.

The attack was not over for the unlucky Dark Dragon. Its demise had just begun!

It had just tilted its body to avoid the Church’s next wave of Holy Light Arrows when it was hit by the Beastmen’s powerful rain of harpoons. If this was an ordinary day, it would have been able to avoid the attack with its ultra-fast speed. However, it was not able to do so due to its severe injuries. Even though it managed to avoid a large portion of the harpoons, its abdomen still suffered from heavy impacts.

Faced with the continuous rain of attacks from the various factions, the injured Dark Dragon flailed its tail, using its last burst of energy to fly out of the group’s radius. Left without any other choice, it flew straight toward Yang Ling’s location, flying lower and lower before finally crashing into the ground, its blood flowing out everywhere!

“Quick, Young Master Harrison, hurry and refine the injured Dark Dragon!”

“Alright, Landa, follow me!”

The Dark Dragon’s body was a trove of treasures. Its tightly knit scales were a natural armor, its skeleton able to be made into magical staffs, its Essence Crystal worth a small fortune. However, to the Angus family who were famous Necromancers, the value of the Dark Dragons was not limited to that. The corpse of a level-nine Magical Beast could not be measured using crystal coins alone.

Seeing the injured Dark Dragon fall to the ground, the elder of the Angus family was the first to react, ordering the young man with long hair beside him to take action immediately. He instructed the group to tightly surround the rest of the Dark Dragons, even summoning his most valuable Cyclops.

After taking out a vial of dark medicine from his robes, the young man by the name of Harrison acted quickly under the cover of a group of Skeletons and Zombies, leading a few of his clansmen straight toward the Dark Dragon on the ground. Looking over, Yang Ling realized that the young man with long hair was the person he had schemed against in the shadows that night while he was scouting the Valenia Volcano Valley.

“Refine the injured Dark Dragon? Could they be trying to take this opportunity to turn the injured Dark Dragon into one of their zombie-like Magical Beasts?”

He did not know what the dark medicine in the hands of the young man was. It released a revolting stench he could smell even from far away. Seeing the Violent Earth Bear the young man’s side and its rigid movements, then recalling his identity and his abilities to control the corpses of Magical Beasts, Yang Ling quickly understood his intentions.

“An opportunity like this doesn’t come around twice!”

The young man with long hair was fast, but Yang Ling was faster. Seeing the heavily injured Dark Dragon, how could he bear to miss such a good opportunity to tame the creature? He silently recited the Wizard Mantra and teleported forward using the Earth Evasion Technique.

“Hehe, even if I can’t get the Divine Weapons within the relic of the giant dragon, this trip is still worth it if I tame a few Dark Dragons!”

Looking at the Dark Dragon covered in its own blood crawling on the ground, Harrison was incredibly excited. As the second son with the chance to become the successor of the Angus family, he knew exactly how much of a benefit refining a Dark Dragon would bring him.

Unlike ordinary Undead Wizards, the Angus family not only had the ability to summon dead souls such as Zombies and Skeletons to do battle, but they also had a special way of controlling a Magical Beast’s corpse to do battle, and could even strengthen the abilities of the Magical Beast. The more powerful the abilities of the Magical Beast while it was alive, the more powerful the battle capabilities of the Magical Beast would be after it was refined. A powerful Dark Dragon that had an immunity to mid- to low-level magic was definitely not to be missed!

After quickly arriving at the side of the Dark Dragon, Harrison suppressed his excited feelings and silently recited the incantations. However, just as he was about to pour the medicine onto the body of the Dark Dragon, he suddenly felt unease in his heart. He had just tumbled to the side when the air around where he had been standing started to ripple. Immediately after, a young man wielding a blood-red dagger appeared out of nowhere!

“Oh, His Lordship!”

Having stayed at Wissen Town for a long time, Harrison naturally recognized Yang Ling, the leader who was said to have abilities deep beyond comprehension. Looking at the sharp dagger in his hands, Harrison’s heart sank, and he retreated a few steps before summoning a group of Skeletons and Zombies to protect himself.

“A pity, what a pity!”

Seeing Harrison’s quick reaction, Yang Ling was all smiles on the surface but secretly cursing in his heart. Originally, he had wanted to kill two birds with one stone, killing Harrison before taming the Dark Dragon on the ground. He did not expect young Harrison to have such quick reactions and avoid his attack!

“The offensive power of the Dark Dragon is great, you must not approach it carelessly. You have to be careful!” After pretending to be kind and giving Harrison a reminder, Yang Ling quickly put the Dark Dragon into the Wizard Pagoda’s Space before continuing. “Guest who has come from faraway lands, the Magical Beast Territory welcomes your arrival. If you have any trouble in the future, you can look for me at Wissen Castle!”

Yang Ling left quickly after successfully accomplishing what he set out to do. Since Harrison was very cautious, there was no point in continuing to loiter around him. Rather than engage in a direct battle with the other party, he might as well wait patiently for the next opportunity to launch a surprise attack. Judging from the current situation, there would be more than enough opportunities for surprise attacks. Harrison might have been able to avoid his attack once, but that did not mean that he would be able to do so a second time!

“Welcomes my arrival?”

Looking at the hypocritical Yang Ling leaving quickly after stealing the Dark Dragon, Harrison grit his teeth in fury. He did not expect the reward that he had earned to be snatched away just like this!

“Do I chase after him and kill him, or tolerate this and find an opportunity to exact revenge?”

Looking at the speedy Yang Ling and the elite guards behind him, Harrison grew very hesitant. He could not tolerate this psychopath’s mistreatment but did not dare act against him recklessly.

Perhaps he could command his undead army to swarm forward and tear the detestable Yang Ling into pieces, but he had to consider the attacks and retaliation from the other party’s army after he had soothed his anger. It would be even more troublesome if he was unable to make the fatal blow and allowed the other party to escape.

As an influential leader, Yang Ling would definitely send out his army to exact revenge after escaping to safety. Even if his group was able to successfully snatch the Divine Weapons in the relic of the giant dragon, they might not be able to free themselves from trouble. Factions such as the Church, Dark Association, and Beastmen were already poised to be strong enemies. Getting another powerful opponent out of nowhere was definitely a foolish choice!

“Hmph, let’s go!”

After deliberating for a moment, Harrison had no choice but to tolerate the injustice, quickly retreating after letting out a grunt of frustration. His clansmen turned to follow him after shooting a fierce glare at Yang Ling.

After returning to the main formation, Yang Ling quickly entered the Wizard Pagoda’s Space and tamed the nearly dead Dark Dragon. He had easily obtained an unexpected reward while the other factions were locked in battle with the Dark Dragons, rivers of blood flowing around them.

The various major alliances had joined forces to take action in order to enter the underground city before the sunset. The increase in their offensive capabilities was not as simple as adding one plus one!

The strong offense of the Bellimore family, coupled with the impenetrable defense of the Church and the indefensible surprise attacks of the Dark Association—the complementary partnership of the three great factions gave the Dark Dragons much trouble. Along with the Beastmen and Angus family keeping them in check, the Dark Dragons were soon at a disadvantage.

Yang Ling was happy to observe the battle from the side when the Dark Dragons had the upper hand; however, seeing the various factions had joined forces to take action, and that several of the Dark Dragons were heavily injured, he naturally could not miss such a great opportunity to take advantage of the crisis.

“Brave warriors, eliminating the evil Dark Dragons in the territory is our natural responsibility, onward!”

After summoning his Magical Beast army, Yang Ling led his army to quickly advance under the name of exterminating evil, positioning themselves behind the army of the Church. The Church had a strong offense, but an even more exceptional defense. Getting into formation behind them would at least eliminate the possibility of the Dark Dragons flying at them head-on.

The best shade is often under the largest tree!

Seeing Yang Ling and his faction hiding behind them, showing themselves but not helping, several of the knights and Spellcasters of the Church couldn’t care less, while others clenched their teeth in fury. However, Yang Ling’s expression did not change, not caring about what they thought. He would be a fool not to utilize the conditions that he was presented with!

He would either let the army of the Church deal with the energetic Dark Dragon, or instruct the Flying Dragon King to lure the threat away toward the Angus family, Beastmen, or Wolf Troop Team.

When encountering an injured Dark Dragon, he naturally would not miss the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. He would order the army to swarm forward to pummel the dragon, shoot arrows, administer poison… Even though he utilized all of the techniques at his disposal, he insisted on obtaining the greatest benefit with the lowest cost.

Furthermore, he would also sneakily tamper with the other factions, sending someone to act as a troop and attack lone Beastmen during the chaos, or secretly summon the puppet Kayseri and instruct him to cast Holy Spells on the undead army of the Angus family… Inciting conflict within the already unstable alliance.

At the scene, only the Church would have a bone to pick with the Undead Wizards, and only they would know how to cast Holy Spells. Coupled with the fact that the attacks would come from the direction of the Church’s faction, the members of the Angus family would naturally think that the Church was secretly launching a surprise attack on them.

Even though they were unable to go into a full-blown conflict with the Church as they still needed to enter the underground city before time ran out, they would still small action in their fury. The faction of the Church had always seen the Angus family as a faction of cultists that should be killed, and they naturally retaliated every time they suffered an attack from the Angus family.

This way, even though there was no full-blown conflict between the two parties, the feelings of animosity would get greater and greater. Yang Ling could successfully deepen the feelings of conflict between the two parties. All he needed now was to light a fuse that would trigger the conflict!
