Chapter 344 Stealth Stones

Yale’s group followed the lizardmen to the place where the Dragon Race lived, and despite the fact that the lizardmen didn’t dare to go near to that place, they knew very well how to reach to the limits of their territory.

"The mountains in front of us are already territory of the Dragon Race. We don’t know anything about the area in that place."

Although they knew their own territory well enough to travel with closed eyes, they were unable to continue guiding Yale’s group once they entered into the territory of the Dragon Race.

"Everyone, activate the Stealth Stone."

The lizardman sighed in relief when Yale said those words and they obeyed instantaneously.

The Stealth Stones were a special type of stone that didn’t exist in the eastern continent that could block Spiritual Sense perception as long as there wasn’t any interaction with the other party. However, speaking with the other party or doing anything that confirms your presence to the other party would render the Stealth Stone useless and would break.

Although the Stealth Stones were quite common even in the lizardman forest, so no one worried about using them, Yale ordered to avoid using them until he ordered to activate them.

After all, those stones might be common for the lizardmen, but they were rare for Yale’s group, so he wanted to keep a huge stockpile for private use later on.

Yale was sure that the Dragon Race wouldn’t be hostile towards them as long as they didn’t show any hostility first, but he knew that while intruding in foreign territory, it was better to be cautious, and he also knew that the lizardmen would feel better in that way.

The forest was completely surrounded by mountains which were all the territory of the Dragon Race even though they only use a little bit of that enormous territory to live.

However, no one dared to try to claim any part of the area belonging to the Dragon Race in the last years because their strength was already pretty famous after having kicked off a lot of invasions.

Of course, it was still impossible for them to avoid others walking across their area to reach the forest of the lizardmen or to just wander about their area. In fact, as long as it didn’t seem an invasion force, they wouldn’t act at all.

With their power, it was nigh impossible for any small group to invade them, so they didn’t worry too much by what the others did on their territory. That was the opposite to the lizardmen, which due to the lack of strength were wary of any intruder. After all, although the lizardman chief was at the Sage Rank, he wasn’t among the strongest experts of the Sage Rank, and he was the only one at the Sage Rank, so the chances of getting invaded by a small elite group were still quite possible.

While advancing through the mountains, the group didn’t find any trap, but since there wasn’t any proper road to walk, so it was still quite difficult to advance walking.

Of course, they could choose to fly, but flying in a foreign territory could be considered as an attack, and the Dragon Tribe could misunderstand their intentions.

After five minutes of walking, Wyba decided to change into her wolf form and jumped to Yale’s head.

"You are too lazy."

Yale said that when he felt Wyba jumping to his head, but when saying those stern words while patting her head, the words lost all their effectivity. For good or not, Yale was unable to get really angry with Wyba even if she acted lazily.

In fact, Yale liked when Wyba acted like that because she was adorable, so Yale’s stern words were just a show, and even if Wyba always remained like that, Yale wouldn’t complain about her actions.

Nurvey, who was mounted in one of the wolves, couldn’t help but feel jealous when Wyba jumped towards Yale’s head because she also wanted to have Wyba on her head or hug her for a while, but she knew that there was no way she could compare with Yale in Wyba’s heart.

After some hours, the lizardman chief decided to speak toward Yale.

"Demon Lord, we don’t know exactly where their living place is, and it is starting to be late. Should we prepare to camp here tonight?"

The lizardman chief was expecting that they would fail to find the Dragon Race and Yale would get tired and decided to return. Moreover, since no one on their group knew where the Dragon Race was exactly, and the other party didn’t lack Stealth Stones, finding them was difficult, and no one could be blamed if they fail.

"No need. They have already found us."

At that moment, three shadows descended from the sky and landed in front of them. Of course, they were unable to sense them through Spiritual Sense until they appeared on their sight because they were also using Stealth Stones to conceal their presences.

They looked similar to the lizardmen, but their features were a bit more human than those of the lizardmen and they had sharp horns on their heads. Moreover, they had wings on their backs, although they disappeared after landing, so Yale guessed that those wings worked similar to his own and could appear and disappear at will.

"Our boss asked us to guide the Demon Lord and his subordinates to our tribe."

Yale smiled when hearing those words because he already expected that situation, but the rest were shocked by the situation, especially the lizardmen. For the lizardman, even if the Dragon Race avoided conflict with Yale due to his status as a Demon Lord, going to invite him was out of their expectations.

The members of the Dragon Race started to fly again, and Yale’s group flew behind them. After all, since they were invited to follow, there was no need to be wary of offending them by flying in their territory.

Although Yale could fly without his wings, he was using them to fly because he could fly more smoothly with them. The advantage of having wings was higher in low ranks, but even after the Grandmaster Rank when everyone could fly, having wings still increased the effectivity of the flight.

After flying some minutes, the group finally saw the place where the Dragon Race lived, the top on one of the mountains which seemed to have been cut off to have a huge flat area.

The tribe of the Dragon Race was bigger than the one of the lizardmen, and they also seemed to have a better culture looking at how their tribe looked. Their housings seemed simple but were filled with small decorations that were the result of a lot of work from talented artisans.

It was easy to see that despite the general style seemed unadvanced, the only reason it was like that was that of traditions and not because they were lacking the means of making buildings comparable to those of the big cities of the eastern continent.

"Welcome to our tribe. I am the tribe chief, and I will be entertaining you until our boss returns."

While the group was admiring the tribe, another member of the Dragon Race appeared before them, and by his aura, there was no doubt that he was a Law Master.

"Boss? You are the tribe chief, but you still have a boss?"

Sebe was the one who asked that question because he understood that it was unusual for rulers with power to acknowledge the superiority of others.

"I am the chief of the Dragon Race, but you should know that we aren’t true dragons and we only have some of their bloodlines. However, our boss is a true divine dragon."

Everyone had heard the rumor about the divine dragon backing the Dragon Race, but they didn’t expect that the chief would admit it openly at their first meeting.

"Did your boss leave?"

Yale wasn’t surprised by the fact that the rumors about the divine dragon were true, rather he didn’t expect that the divine dragon had left after inviting them.

"He went to attend some urgent matters, but he should return soon. Our boss ordered us to treat your group with the same respect we treat him. You can enjoy your rest here until he returns."

Although the chief wasn’t sure of the reasons of the divine dragon to treat Yale’s group like that, he knew that the divine dragon was wise and that he should have his reasons.

While Yale’s group was landing on the tribe of the Dragon Race, at another mountain, a huge sea monster and a dragon were battling.

"A mere sea monster like you dares to enter in the sacred grounds of my tribe, you are seeking death!"

The loud voice of the dragon echoed on the mountains while the sea monster was cursing on his mind.

"This isn’t my fault. I am just obeying orders that I can’t disobey."

Although sea monsters were less intelligent than beasts of their same level, that sea monster was intelligent enough to know that it was between two disastrous options because it couldn’t offend the woman who ordered it to attack, not he could beat the divine dragon despite being both Law Masters.

The divine dragon was a peak Law Master while the sea monster was just a normal Law Master, and the terrain also gave an advantage to the Divine Dragon, which put the sea monster in a complete disadvantage.
