Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 215 - Fighting Against An Army Dark Formation

As for Arthur, he jumped over Birdy's back, while asking:

"Did you memorize all their locations?"

"Sure, they were trying to move out sneakily in small groups, but I noted their locations, or Birdy did and he told me," she laughed as she said what happened. Arthur took out his map, and handed it over to Lily as he said:

"We are here, where are the locations of these warriors?"

Lily wasn't that good at maps, but she tried to approximately mark the locations she spotted. Just as she was midway in her demonstration, Arthur figured out the full arrangement at once.

It wasn't a random dispatch of the warriors, but a formation! A dark formation he once saw before!

"Interesting," he sneered, as it was time for him to fight a formation head on. He wasn't worried, as any formation had only one weakness.

If it was hit before being laid down, and enough numbers of the warriors were killed, the formation would fail, and those initiated it would have a backlash.

He smirked, as this was something he wanted to try. He wanted to see how a soul natured, dark formation's backlash would be like.

So, he made Birdy take him towards the places of these warriors. the moment he reached at the place of the most warriors, he didn't act on his own, but silently summoning the scorpion queen, taking advantage of the huge trees here, as he instructed:

"Kill to your heart content."

She waved her two tails left and right in excitement, as she was very pleased with Arthur lately. He took her out a lot, let her do whatever she wanted, kill as much as she desired, and never reprimanded her for doing that.

He was just the perfect master for her!

"Let's go to that place," Arthur pointed towards the opposite direction, as he landed his rhinoceros there, asking it to attack all the warriors here.

After laying down his two pets in the most essential points of this huge formation, he started to head towards the next cluster of villages and towns Lily had spotted.

Throughout the scout tour Lily had done, she found out the places of three other large clusters like the one Arthur just freed. These clusters were forming a direct line with the mine ore, making Arthur believe those working in the mine were living in these clusters.

This time his appearance above the first cluster was met by a sudden violent attack of arrows coming from the towns and villages walls and towers.

"You mixed yourselves with the people I desire? Interesting."

Arthur knew this plan was nasty, but he wasn't hopeless here. He simply channeled his energy, while he started to transform again into a dragon.

"Roar!"

He flew directly towards the biggest town in the centre of this cluster. Arrows were useless against him, so he didn't even try to dodge, descending like a lightning bolt, while channeling his energy inside his body.

"Splash!"

This time he tried another trick he once saw a dragon use, as he went down with extreme speed, then suddenly opened up his wings, while releasing a single splash of fire, before closing his mouth at this moment.

All this resulted in him throwing out a fire ball like a rocket towards the defensive tower zone in this town!

One hit, all it took was one hit and the concentrated clusters of towers here were ruined at no time. Arthur repeatedly hunted down those on the walls and towers, killing and demolishing the town's defenses in a visible eye speed.

And finally he managed to destroy all the resistance in this town in fifteen minutes.

He then flew over the cluster once more, waiting for anyone to attack, however no arrow came anymore, while all the towns and villages gates were opened, and a large number of people emerged from them.

Arthur then glanced at them, before taking a long fly around the cluster. From Lily's description, many soldiers were already distributed here. He just moved above the places of forest where Lily spotted these suspicious movements, and he didn't delay to cover them with his deadly fire.

A crescendo of screams erupted, and he didn't stop killing these warriors without hesitation.

He knew they were mostly forced to attack him, but that didn't mean he wouldn't kill them all if he had the chance.

If he didn't do it, then he would risk being severely wounded, or even killed!

Arthur then returned to Lily's Birdy, returned to his human form again, before saying:

"I will free them, and you start scouting again. for sure they will send another batch of warriors. also try to find their source."

Arthur knew it wasn't easy to dispatch all these warriors without care to the limited resources under the clan branch's disposal here. He smelled something fishy, as if this clan had a way to gain a huge number of warriors out of nowhere!

Arthur then started killing the strange mouth inside each warrior or villager, while erasing the cursed enslaving tattoo from their shoulders.

The process took him two more days, and through these days, Lily had given him many good news.

She had found a place that was only a large cave in a small mountain. It seemed this mountain had some relation with the ore mine, as it was formed of strange colored rocks that kept flashing in daylight.

Arthur didn't fully understand her meaning, but he at least knew something was fishy indeed. She described how many numbers of warriors kept getting out of this cave without an end. She also traced them down, and gave him many places where they were concentrated.

Arthur then recalled his two pets to his tattoos, before summoning them again. He gave them the general direction he needed them to act at, then he let the two loose.

The rhinoceros started to show some brutality from over killing, however Arthur wasn't worried. He didn't want his pets to be like Lily's pet, docile and cute, he wanted them to be ferocious, like real beasts.

After he sent them by one day, he started to move.. He sent all those freed towards his city, while flying in the sky on the back of Birdy.
