“Ann?…” Garen’s heart skipped a beat, “you’re saying that one of the leaders of the Dragons of Disaster group is called Ann?”
“Yes, is there a problem?” The four-tailed scorpion was puzzled, “You know this Dragon of Disaster?”
Garen did not reply.
“Can you talk about this situation related to Ann?”
“Situation? You should really exchange information with the alliance,” the four-scorpion said helplessly, “alright, alright, but I don’t know much.”
A pile of information then flowed into Garen’s mind. It was all about Ann’s situation and information as well as contents of the recent God-Lure Operations.
The operations were successful in some ways as many clones just a level beneath God were lured down and taken care of. This angered many of the churches, bringing the feud between the two parties to a next level.
Ann, a dragon that has engulfed over a hundred billion lives, Dragon of Disaster, Master of Time and Dark Shadow that died 4,600 years ago. There were rumors that she had not died but was hiding in an abyss. Ever since she lost the battle between God of Shadow and Time, she purposely lurked in the dark, concealing her existence from all beings. As the strongest existence amongst the Dark Shadow Dragons, she was once the most beneficiary contender for the divinity of time and shadow but she failed and transformed into a Dragon of Disaster, the energy source of destruction and massacre.
“Dark Shadow Dragon…” Garen suddenly understood why Ann helped him in the first place…
“You have an aura of Pearl of the Temple on you, you must have gotten it then? How lucky. I will not give you such a treasure then. I will instead, reward you with this.” The four-tailed scorpion tossed an item and something black rolled over to Garen.
Garen grabbed the item with his claw. It was a black metal bracelet the size of a human. He could only use it as a ring.
“This is?”
“A God-Favored Detector. It also has a dimensional communicating function. It could penetrate dimensions and communication with the alliance. There’s also some information on how to kill the beings of this world and absorb their energy. Killing beings between our two worlds enable us to obtain their energy. This is the most basic energy source. In simpler terms, the more you kill, the stronger you get!” The four-tailed scorpion concluded, “alright now, more is in there. Take your time to analyze it, I’ll make a move first!”
He quickly shrunk and snuck into the black lake before vanishing.
Garen kept the bracelet and searched around the corpse pieces on the ground, finding two rings with demonic attributes. He then looked around the surroundings and flew off when there was nothing more to be found.
“The more I kill, the stronger I will become?” Garen flipped through the contents in the bracelet while on flying on his way back. This thing was similar to a mini computer, there were all sorts of information in it.
The main thing was how to crystallize an Enneahedron crystal core.
An Enneahedron was the source for Mother Stream Void beings in obtaining this world’s energy.
The way to crystallizing was simple. Just killing a level two being and using its soul as material, could create an Enneahedron. It was naturally evolutional which it could continue to strengthen the main body’s ability as it grew.
He could not be bothered with questions by Blue Void and the rest and went into the tent directly to analyze it carefully, leaving the nitty-gritty to Kevin and his daughter to manage.
He happened to have a Soul Crystal which fulfilled the requirement of creating an Enneahedron.
Following instructions, he extracted the soul and compressed the Soul Power, laying down a simple yet profound course of dimensional formation.
It wasn’t long when an Enneahedron crystal core appeared in his hand.
Garen looked at the Enneahedron in his hand.
It looked similar to a normal Enneahedron crystal. It was colorless and transparent, looking insignificant.
He pressed the Enneahedron on his chest.
Hiss… the Enneahedron automatically mounted into the scales on his chest, becoming a natural ornament. Garen clicked his tongue in wonder.
He could not yet tell what this thing was used for.
Garen pondered for a while, and let the thing absorbed the remaining Soul Crystal. There were no changes.
The Enneahedron had a few stages. There would be a new change once it achieved qualitative changes. Garen was not in a hurry. He took out the Pearl of the Temple, which was the real highlight.
He did not plan to consume it as a single-use item, but rather absorb it gradually.
This gradual absorption was enough for him to add another Soul Ring. A Soul Ring was born through five Soul Seeds. Although it was not as solid as a Soul Ring from a foundation built step by step, this speed was faster than him realizing himself.
He was already at the red Soul Ring stage. Another Soul Ring could perhaps elevate him to the third stage of Heptachromic, at the level of yellow Soul Ring.
Storing the Pearl of the Temple, he swallowed it into his tummy to slowly absorb it in. Garen could feel his surroundings contorting. He was still in the tent moments ago and he suddenly appeared on a deserted, bleak grassland.
Two pure White Dragon Guards were crouching not far off for a rest. Hearing the noise, they got up.
“You’re back?” The Dragon Guard exclaimed with joy.
“Uh huh, how long has it been?” Garen nodded.
“It’s been three days. We are currently at the north grassland near to Snow City. Passing a few more villages and we’ll see Snow City’s territory,” Ken answered.
Adjusting his mood, Garen gazed in the direction of Snow City. It was afternoon.
“Let’s go and continue the journey. Perhaps we’d be able to spend the night at Snow City.”
“Yes,” Annie and Ken did not have any objections.
The three White Dragons soared high up in the sky and flew away.
******
Among the nestled hills and countless mountains, a grand city stood on the highest peak, overlooking the mountain range.
A sea of clouds drifted beneath the city.
The afternoon sunlight painted the pure white city in red. Various flying dragons hovered around the city. Ear piercing howls and roars rattled eardrums from time to time.
The sun resided on the left of the city and was descending slowly.
The three White Dragons including Garen flew to this city. Viewing down from above the sea of clouds, they felt a wonderous feeling looking at the glowing, majestic city. They felt as though as they were flying towards a legendary, ancient city.
On the right of the city, was a high tower carved with a huge golden dragon head. Countless workers were hanging over the dragon head by ropes tied to themselves while they were in labor.
A silver airship measuring over a few hundred meters long swept past beneath Garen and the two White Dragons, sneaking into the clouds and heading towards the city. The passengers on the airship looked up to observe the three White Dragons at close distance.
The side of the vessel was hung with air-dried, white furs. A sculpture of a seductive woman was at the front of the ship.
Whizz!!
Out of a sudden, the space on Garen’s left side began to contort. A large amount of air compressed into the core of a circular area, surging wildly into it before rumbling.
Puff!
Countless air currents spewed out.
As the spurting air current dispersed, a metallic huge ball in a dusty color emerged in the air. It rotated slowly like a terrestrial globe, structured on top of it were densely complicated mechanics. A white halo orbited it like a planetary ring.
The ball was a product of Alchemy, at over a thousand meter in diameter, heading straight to Snow City.
A few figures flew out from the Snow City to welcome and receive it.
“What a wondrous and grand city,” Annie who was beside Garen gasped in admiration.
“I’m seriously considering living here,” Ken smiled.
“It’s a shame that we’d probably not be welcomed,” Garen shook his head. “Let’s go, faster now.”
The three White Dragons hastened their flight to the city.
Without any examination process, they penetrated a thin layer of transparent film without any hindrance when entering the city within a thousand-meter range. Garen passed through the city’s towering walls and descended on a landing spot by the city.
Further up was the attacking range of the center towers. Regardless if it was courtesy or by warning, they were not permitted to fly in the city and could only travel on foot.
Snow City was famous for its crowd of Wizard Towers in the city center. Over a hundred Wizard Towers were built in the city center, concealed by five, six thousand-meter high city walls. Outsiders would not be able to peek in.
The only tower that the city walls could not conceal was the Silver Tower.
It was also the same tower with the sculpture of a dragon head in progress. The ten thousand meters-high tower peaked the clouds. It was eye-catching being the only, standing tower in the whole of Snow City.
It was empty all around when they descended. A few wizard apprentices at the landing spot came up to welcome them.
“This is the descending spot for the dragon races. We have received permission of your descending. Please rest at Dragon Urban Area number 187. Someone has already reserved a room for three of you.”
The apprentice that spoke was a beautiful and innocent-looking young girl. She looked to be cultured, catering to their taste. Apparently, it was not a rumor that giant dragons favor innocent princesses.
“Noted. How do we get to the Dragon Urban Area?”
Garen asked casually.
“This is a guide. Upon activating it, you need not worry about getting lost in the city,” the female apprentice handed over a small round button in pale gold. The button was magnetic as upon contact, it immediately attached to Garen’s scales.
A pale blue cursor appeared before his sight. The striking cursor was in a shape of a guiding arrow.
“How convenient,” Garen sighed in admiration.
“Who helped us to book a room?” Annie was curious, “since we’ve never been here before?”
Garen smiled without saying a word. Apart from Soaring Wing King, he could not think of anyone else who would reserve a room for them. He was sure that Soaring Wing King would be in contact with him very soon after they settled down.
He really needed to establish a Wizard Tower as soon as possible or else he would not dare to investigate the divinity. Once the divinity was dissected for research, it was possible that God would detect his location and punished him from above.
Without a screen to isolate the Divine Power, this high-level research could not be done.
