Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 288 - Dismantling The Deflective Array By Burning It To Ash!

He didn't intervene usually in the two girls skirmishes, but right now the situation wasn't that easy to be underestimated by the two like this.

They needed to be ready, as he was pretty confident what happened here wasn't the end; it was only the beginning!

The moment the trio appeared in the pocket world, it was pretty obvious their appearance came out of the dark Dorfis clan's expectations.

There were many warriors here, but their formation was literally a mess; plus their defensive shield wasn't on yet!

"Sound the alarm!"

"Intruders!!"

"Kill them!!!"

Shout after another started to echo, but as they weren't ready, they would never be able to be a match for the trio, so Arthur just simply said:

"Go and have the fun you wanted."

Tina giggled as she jumped over the warriors here, killing anyone she could reach with her claws, and those far away were targeted by her ice breath.

"Let's go," Arthur then flew to the sky, with Sara following so close by. As there was no single defensive shield here, the trip to the pillar seemed like a walk in the park compared to the intense fighting they just had!

"It's too easy, isn't it somehow suspicious?" Sara was the one to speak out her mind, and Arthur just glanced at the nearby pillar and the small number of warriors defending the mages here as he said:

"No matter what, they are expecting us back at the star we left behind. If they had the power to cover up all these pillars with enough force to stop me; then they wouldn't ask for a hundred but a thousand pillars and they wouldn't be a middle sized clan."

She nodded in silence as his reply seemed logical to her. The next thing went smooth as he took the pillar and returned to unite with the two girls in the star map.

"They didn't come, huh?" he muttered when he appeared there, as the place seemed quiet with no danger of any kind. "They are up to something then," he believed more in this. He turned to the two girls who were standing silently behind him. "We will go to that star," he selected the total opposite star to the one they just snatched and turned dark.

The next star's pillar was snatched nice and easy without any problems. Tina was content with the fighting she had so far, despite the short time she had but she was happy she could now fight without any restraints, without any warrior running away.

Sara was still doubtful, and Arthur was pretty confident in his senses; his enemies are doing something in the shadows and he was confident he would discover it soon.

"To that star?" Sara asked as she pointed out to the opposite side. "No, we can't move on pattern or else this would be all pointless," he replied while glancing over the remaining twenty seven stars here.

"So where? To the centre?" she asked again.

"This one," he picked a star in close proximity to the dead central star of the main Dorfis clan headquarters. "Why?" she asked with curiosity, but she was doomed to be disappointed as he didn't answer.

He selected this star randomly, and also by a sense inside him. He rarely had this alarming sense, and so he needed to know what his enemies were planning.

He wasn't that worried, but this vague feeling was really annoying! When he selected the star, he felt the resonance with his inner warning. He knew he would find something there. "Be prepared, this fight will be dirty."

He just warned the two before directly entering the portal and appearing on the other side. As expected, he found a large number of warriors and mages waiting for him, combined by large number of monsters.

They stood there, with no fear at all, like they never heard the news, and that was simply unbelievable to be true!

"Why are they standing like showing off?" even Tina felt something was odd, so she asked, without venturing forward like her usual. "Is it an illusion?" Sara expressed her doubts, but Arthur didn't reply, as he glanced towards the distance, outside the thick layers of heavy enemies surrounding here.

He could see the pillar perfectly fine, and that meant this wasn't an illusion!

"They are trying to act smart and nasty," he sighed before flapping his wings to rise up as he added, "Let's move, we need to take the defensive and deflective shields first."

The two girls exchanged glances before following him. "What is the trick here?" Sara asked.

"Didn't you have deflective arrays back in your days?" Arthur was surprised to hear her question, making him jump to a conclusion based on her next answer; "No, this is the first time to hear of such a thing!"

"Sigh, it seems they had the help of the outside again," he muttered as this was the only explanation. It was also feasible for the later generation than Tina to discover such an array, but Arthur highly doubted that.

If they had such a knowledge breakthrough then they wouldn't have fallen under the clutches of the dark mages like this. "To destroy it we need to concentrate our attack on a single point, not large enough to stimulate its deflective function, and focused enough to cause the damage needed," he explained in plain words, but to the girls they seemed puzzles!

"What do you even mean by that?!!"

He glanced at Tina trying to hold his laughs. She looked quite cute. "This shield works by absorbing any attack and reflecting it towards the attacker's direction," he said.

"Then we should find another way to bypass it! What about my earth control ability? It's weak but it can work fine!"

"It's stimulated by a large area attack, like your arrow of extermination, right?"

"Right."

"Why don't you reply to me? huh?!!"

"So we need to make the area of attack as small as possible."

"But not too much to lose the intensity of the attack, losing the damage meant failure as well."

"You two… Roar!!!"

"Depleting the array, huh?"

"That's the theory."

"…"

"Which spot will we attack?"

"I think the central highest point in the dome array would be nice."

"…"

"I think so too."

"Tina," he finally paid attention to her, and when he did she was on the verge to explode out on their faces! "Go and vent your anger over that point there."

He didn't continue his words, and Tina just glanced at the direction of his claw before hurrying over there and started to vent her frustration out.

"Keep focusing over one point," he shouted, and his shout came out as a mighty roar!

"You did this on purpose?"

"Sure, I needed her to freeze it up before I step in and melt that down with the aid of your wind."

"…"

Sara was speechless as she didn't expect him to be able to play Tina so perfectly and naturally as this. A thought suddenly crossed her mind; was she also played out nice and neat like this before? Was she being played out right now?

She glanced silently at him, feeling for the first time how terrifying he was. She thought she could outsmart him somehow, but in the end she realized the old words which Tina once told her.

She wasn't trying to mock her or act superior as she initially wrongly thought; she was honestly advising her! Arthur wasn't simple, wasn't simple at all despite his kind nature, the face he kept showing to anyone!

They waited, for ten minutes, until Arthur felt it was enough for Tina to vent out her depressed anger, then he stepped in. "With me!" he said before releasing the energy he kept channeling all this time.

Two dragons, one flying tigress and three attacks; all focused on a single small point that didn't exceed one meter radius! It seemed amazing how precise and accurate they were. When the three attacks combined together, cracking sounds started to pop up everywhere.

"It's breaking!" Sara muttered as she glanced for a moment at the whole world around them; a huge dome appeared out of nowhere, and it was full of many long and irregular cracks!

"Keep attacking!" Tina was the one to roar out, as she still felt anger and much frustration; she wanted to go out and unleash all this over the whole army of warriors, mages, and monsters out there!

In less than two minutes, the array couldn't take anymore and started to burn on itself. Like dried tree leaves touching wisps of fire, curling on themselves and turning ashen gray before they went to oblivion with the wind; the array was destroyed and the outer enemies were now in reach.

"Roar!"

It was Tina's roar that reverberated all over the world. Arthur wanted to use the arrow of extermination to end this, but when he saw how angry she was, he preferred to give her more space.

Especially when no one, literally no one managed to stand a single attack from her!
