Chapter 986 Black Flood Dragon Attack

Chapter 986 Black Flood Dragon Attack

The two devil worshippers' initial strengths were only around the Preliminary Accession-stage Transcendent Realm.

However, after undergoing gigantification, the two devil worshippers' brute strengths surged to the Seeking Insight-stage Transcendent Realm!

The ordinary Transcendent-level troops were not their match!

Duke Flugerd flew into the sky and prepared to slay the two gigantified monsters before sustaining any further loss of Transcendent-level troops.

However, several blood-crimson rays whipped toward Duke Flugerd, interrupting him from saving his troops.

Duke Flugerd was forced to black water from his interspatial water storage to conjure a shield to defend himself.

He might be a Half-step Paragon, but his body was still weak, even against ordinary knives and swords.

"Since you decided to throw fodders my way, why bother saving them?" Priest Merkkon casually said.

The blood-crimson rays quickly retracted into Priest Merkkon's hands, but their forms were clearly seen for a moment.

They were actually Priest Merkkon's blood, veins, and muscles, yet they moved like snakes, completely under Priest Merkkon's control.

"What kind of abomination are you?" Duke Flugerd focused on Priest Merkkon with his gloomy eyes, no longer paying attention to the Transcendent-level troops.

Marquis Raygor and the other three earls had jumped into action to save the troops from the two gigantified monsters.

With their collective strengths of one Peak Seeking Insight-stage Transcendent and three Late Seeking Insight-stage Transcendents, they should make quick work of the two Rank 2 Transcendent-level gigantified monsters.

More importantly, Priest Merkkon was the biggest threat out of the three devil worshippers.

"What abomination am I?" Priest Merkkon chuckled and said, "The words of an ignorant person. The bodies of Sun God's worshippers can be freely controlled and transformed according to our whims. Of course, a non-believer like you wouldn't—!"

Swoosh!

Before Priest Merkkon could finish speaking, Duke Flugerd abruptly lunged forward and fired several black water lances at him, all aiming at his vital areas.

However, Priest Merkkon reacted quickly, parrying away a few black water lances and evading the rest.

Even so, a Half-step Paragon's attack wasn't something Priest Merkkon could parry completely.

The tremendous force broke his hands and blew Priest Merkkon some distance away, knocking his hood back and revealing his appearance.

"How rude. Don't you know it's bad manners to interrupt when someone is talking?" Priest Merkkon casually said as his broken hands fixed themselves back into shape in an instance.

At the same time, Duke Flugerd narrowed his eyes.

"This Duke knows the face of every Peak Seeking Insight-stage Transcendent in the kingdom, and you are not one of them. Who the hell are you? Are you from the outside the kingdom?" Duke Flugerd interrogated.

"Who I am or where I come from isn't important. Besides, you didn't bother answering any questions of mine, yet expect me to answer yours? You should apologize first if you want any answers," Priest Merkkon said dismissively.

Of course, Priest Merkkon wouldn't answer even if Duke Flugerd apologized.

Duke Flugerd knew that, and his gaze became colder.

"You're right. It's a waste of time to try and pry any information out of you. All devil worshippers should be put to death on the spot for the crime of destabilizing the kingdom!" Duke Flugerd said firmly.

The weather rapidly changed as grey clouds gathered in the skies above the city, and water drops formed from the very air en masse.

At the same time, all the black water in Duke Flugerd's interspatial water storage flowed out and mixed with the surrounding newly-formed water drops.

All the water in the surrounding space quickly gathered, forming an enormous body of water that soon took the form of a black flood dragon.

"Rejoice, knowing this Duke will kill you at full power!" Duke Flugerd declared before suddenly attacking without warning.

Duke Flugerd will not give Priest Merkkon the chance to gigantify and drastically increase his strength like the other two devil worshippers.

"Yoohoho~! Isn't this overkill, Duke Flugerd? Don't you care for the people living in this city?"

Priest Merkkon replied slightly nervously while creating distance from the descending black flood dragon.

However, the enormous black flood dragon drew closer rather than further from Priest Merkkon.

Priest Merkkon could not outrun the black flood dragon!

Boom!

The enormous black flood dragon slammed into the surface of the land, destroying all buildings and other obstacles without resistance.

"Nooo—!"

Many people had long evacuated from the battlefield, but they couldn't escape the black flood dragon attack range.

It was like an inland tsunami that threatened to swallow and drown the entire region!

However, it was more destructive than a natural disaster and even louder than the wrath of the heavens.

The black flood dragon attack wiped out one-third of the city and everyone and everything beyond it, including all trees and forms of vegetation.

The land was drowned in a black sea.

However, the black flood dragon attack didn't end there.

The powerful momentum of the attack continued to carry the enormous body of black water to devastate several dozen miles of land further to the north.

Duke Flugerd watched the outcome of his own making with cold eyes, not caring about the hundreds or thousands of lives he may have snuffed out.

"This Duke does not care for the lives of those that do not belong to the kingdom!" Duke Flugerd coldly stated.

Furthermore, they had to be at the Transcendent level, at the very least, for him to care.

"We might have gotten away with just the array and the death of the two Transcendents. However, there's no way this level of destruction will go unnoticed, Lord Flugerd," Marquis Raygor mentioned his concern.

The previous two gigantified monsters had been swiftly dealt with, and most of the Transcendent-level troops had been saved.

However, now they have a bigger problem on their hand.

Even if they made excessive demands of the Crawford Kingdom, there's no more they would give in so easily now that so many people died.

Marquis Raygor feared the Crawford Kingdom might take this matter very hard and wage an all-out war on the kingdom, disregarding whether they could actually win against the kingdom or not.

Boom!

A towering water column suddenly erupted from the flood region in the distant north, causing Duke Flugerd's gaze to turn serious.
