As the screams of the vampires disappeared into the depths of the cave, the outside of the cave returned to its usual silence.
Wizard Forgan hesitated for a moment in mid-air, but he eventually landed with Amu.
The appearance of a level two Draconian had made him a little uneasy. He couldn't help but frown as he looked at the dark entrance of the cave.
"My Lord, although Grim has the help of a Draconian, he is still a level two. They have no chance of winning against a level three Lord Heiness. What are you still worried about? "Wizard Amu mustered up his courage and tried to comfort Forgan in a low voice.
"Hmph … What do you know!" Wizard Forgan frowned, "If Grim really has no chance of winning, why would he come out? If he hid in the Wizard's Pagoda, he would not suffer any losses no matter how much the enemy yelled. But he chose to come out and fight us head-on. I can't help but feel like there's a conspiracy going on here … "
"You mean …" Wizard Amu's eyes were wide open, a look of disbelief on his face.
He had lived in the Flame Monarch for decades. In the end, it was just a beginner's Wizard's Pagoda. If it wasn't for the Black Forest and the enviable resources of Magical Beasts and Living Creatures, it wouldn't have been so popular.
As one of Grim's disciples, Amu was very familiar with the Wizard's Pagoda. Other than a few forbidden areas that he could not get close to, he had already explored all the other facilities and found nothing out of the ordinary.
Some time ago, there was a rumor in the Wizard's Pagoda that his teacher had organized an invasion of another world. Since he was not involved, he did not know the details. However, it was true that a few core Wizards of the Wizard's Pagoda had gone missing.
Meryl, Sabrina, Bliss, Endor …
They had never appeared after disappearing from the Wizard's Pagoda. Grim and Mary, on the other hand, had reappeared after disappearing for two months. Amu did not notice anything out of the ordinary from their mannerisms.
The only unusual thing was that half a month ago, there was a problem with the sealing room on the third floor of the Wizard's Pagoda, and all Wizards were temporarily suspended from using it. As the sealing room was very limited, most Wizards would only use it a few times in their lives, so it did not attract the attention of the Wizards in the Wizard's Pagoda.
If Amu wasn't an observant person, perhaps even he wouldn't have noticed this little detail that had no impact on his life.
Now, it seemed that the problem with the sealing room was fake, and that there were more things inside!
Dragon People?
Could it be that Grim had intruded into a Dragon Kingdom?
Right when Am couldn't help but let his imagination run wild, his body suddenly swayed, and he became slightly unstable.
When he came back to his senses, he realized that it wasn't that he had lost his footing, but … the ground had begun to shake violently.
In front of him, the originally flat ground suddenly undulated like an earth dragon.
It was as if a huge creature had suddenly drilled its way into the ground and was frantically struggling to dig. The earth was like a piece of rag. Countless wrinkles and cracks appeared on its surface before it shattered in an instant. Countless bottomless ravines and hills suddenly appeared, and then shattered into pieces, continuously disintegrating …
A hundred-meter-tall pillar of dust shot out from the densely packed cracks, instantly devouring the camps and markets around the Flame Cavern.
Vaguely, Amu seemed to hear a loud and terrifying dragon roar coming from underground.
He must have heard it wrong. There were no dragons near the Blazing Flame Monarch!
However, just when Amu was feeling doubtful, Wizard Forgan, who was standing in front of him, suddenly widened his eyes as if he had seen a ghost.
Amu might not be able to make a clear judgement, but as a rank 2 Magus, there was no way he would make a mistake.
The explosion underground was not because the Blazing Flame Monarch had used some large-scale spell, but … but …
Just as Wizard Forgan's heart was pounding, a loud noise suddenly came from the entrance of the Flame Cavern.
Tons of lava boulders, as well as countless amounts of sand, stones, and soil, were thrown into the air by a tremendous force. Amidst this pillar of mud and dust that was hard to see, two creatures with huge differences in size soared upwards, flying while tangling with each other.
Even the thick, dusky dust could not block the bloody scratches of the rank 3 Marquis Hennes' Underworld Blood Ghost Claw. The extremely dense bloody energy was enough to show that Hennes was going all out.
Even so, Hennes' Netherblood Ghost Claw still couldn't break through the basin-sized layers of azure dragon scales on his opponent's body. As for the corrosive and blood poison properties of the Underworld Blood Ghost Claw, they were directly dispersed by the blinding lightning on the surface of the Marquis' body.
Hennes flapped his wings and flew swiftly while dodging his opponent's terrifying bite, pounce, wing strike, tail whip, as well as the frightening short dragon breath.
Following a clear and resonant dragon's roar, Hennes, who had been struck by the dragon's aura, paused for a moment before being engulfed by the horrifying wave of lightning.
After half a finger, Hennes let out a mournful cry and dragged his charred body out of the lightning. Not daring to stay any longer, the blood energy in his body exploded, and his entire body turned into a strange bloody shadow, disappearing in an instant.
At this moment, the terrifying opponent raised its neck and let out another resonant dragon roar in the direction Hennes had escaped. Only then did it flap its huge wings in satisfaction, occupying the sky and soaring to its heart's content.
That malevolent dragon horn, those gleaming fangs, that bony and lean body, those thick and powerful dragon claws, those huge and broad dragon wings, and that 8-meter-long bony tail … The proud rank 3 Lightning Dragon Armes proudly soared in the blue sky and white clouds, showing off its majestic body to this mysterious world.
Only after flying thrice in the sky to its heart's content did Lightning Dragon Armes notice the two human Magi who were staring at it with their mouths wide open, staring at it with a stupefied look in their eyes.
Eh, why are there still two little bugs here that haven't been chased away?
Seeing the two wizards opening their mouths to say something, Armes, who was filled with hatred towards wizards, didn't care about what they said. In the next second, a terrifying thunderstorm wrapped around the two Magi and flung them tens of kilometers away.
Hmph, I can't kill you, but I can at least let you suffer a little!
Thinking viciously, the rank 3 Lightning Dragon Armes landed on the ground.
The Lightning Dragon Armes landed gracefully on the ground amid the sound of sand and pebbles flying in the air.
After the short battle underground, the Flame Cavern had been completely destroyed by the battle between the two Type 3 powerhouses. The entire ground was in a state of desolation. Hot air kept rising from the ground, mixing with the sand and dirt. The air was so dirty that it was hard to breathe.
The two Magi had fought their way up, and the hole they created was covered up by the falling rocks and sand. If Armes wanted to go back underground, he would have to use his dragon claws to dig another way out. Otherwise, he would have to wait for the fire Magi to pick him up.
Armes squatted on top of the ruins and kept scanning the surroundings.
That damn fire Magi didn't just ask him to chase away the vampire leader, she also asked him to block the path of retreat of the other vampires.
Forcing him, a Tier 3 Thunder Dragon, to serve as a despicable thug was an insult to the great Thunder Dragon race. But for the sake of the precious Dragon Oath Gemstone, Armes decided to endure it.
Lightning Dragon Armes grumbled angrily while using his power of the Will to scan the ground for any abnormalities within a ten kilometer radius.
Abruptly, it straightened its body and stared unblinkingly at a pile of rubble a thousand meters away from it with a pair of huge amber-like eyes.
As if it had heard something, its huge and strong body instantly soared into the air, and then swooped down with an unstoppable momentum.
A muffled sound echoed.
The pile of rubble turned into powder under the dragon's huge claws, and a vampire that had just dug out a tunnel was stomped into meat paste in an instant.
Aiya, I was a bit too heavy!
Armes couldn't help but be startled. Only now did he remember that the fire Magi wanted him alive.
He raised his claws and licked the flesh on them.
They were weak, and seemed to be a rank 1 vampire. They weren't the target!
Relieved, Armes strolled back to his original spot and continued to remain vigilant.
With a rank 3 Lightning Dragon blocking the way, how could the vampires that had swarmed into the ground find a way to escape?
The vampires attacking this time were all core members of the Vic family. They were all powerful and skilled in battle, so Grimm didn't send out the Magi under him. Instead, he cooperated with the dragonman Zacha to search for traces of the vampires in the underground lava passageways that were broken into countless segments.
After all, this was the Blazing Flame Monarch's territory. Large amounts of fire eyes were released, and the vampires that were scurrying about in the tunnels were found one by one.
Grade 2 against Grade 1, and there were two of them at the same time. As such, it was difficult for the vampires to escape once they were targeted. They were all beaten black and blue, then bound up with anti-magic chains and thrown back to the Blazing Flame Monarch.
After a thorough search, Grimm's first target, the rank 2 vampire Lester, was finally found in a tunnel less than ten metres from the surface.
After a relaxing 'bloody battle', Lester was pierced in the thigh by Zacha's lightning spear and electrocuted into an afro. Only then was he captured by Grimm and brought back to the Blazing Flame Monarch.
With Lester here, Grimm couldn't be bothered to chase after another rank 2 vampire. He used a Gate of Fire to bring Armes back and cut off all contact with the surface.
