Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 501 - Fighting Monsters With Monsters

Those hit by the arrays directly lost their lives in the process, while those who were sent flying mostly entered into his garden by the timely actions of his system.

This trial jumped straight up towards the higher level without warning, and Arthur was now using all the arrays he had to crush those monsters.

"One week? Huh, I can't even stay a single day here," he helplessly muttered as he knew the stock of his arrays wouldn't sustain him all this long. "Let me try this spear then," he glanced all around and was slightly content with the devastation he caused here.

In the area he could reach with his arrays the monsters were literally in chaos. The attack of his runes had another advantage over the arrows; they lasted longer, for hours, before their energies were depleted.

That made him throw the arrays and cover as much area as he could, then he started using his spear.

The moment he threw his spear for the first time, the shadow only moved to hit a far group of monsters, exploding there and clearing a small area not exceeding a hundred meter radius.

"Weak but I can use it all the time without any pause," he assessed his spear, trying to reach a perfect strategy to kill those monsters.

He kept releasing his spear in places his arrays didn't cover. Despite his fast attacks, he couldn't cover everything alone.

Some monsters managed to slip by this tight area of devastation and portals, to reach his hill finally. Yet when they did, they only came in scattered groups, making it easier for his three pets to kill them.

This made not a single monster able to attack him, or even touch the top of the hill even after an entire day passed.

During this day, he exhausted many arrays, arrows, and also tricks to maintain his advantage. His system had already absorbed endless numbers of monsters, and at the middle of the second day, it became clear he couldn't keep this rhythm for much longer than a couple more days.

"I need a solution fast," he said to his system and golden dragon.

"Why not try to run away from this hill?" the golden dragon asked.

"Going where?" Arthur shrugged, "everywhere around is just plains, I'm already in the best location here."

"Ding! You can summon the vast armies in your garden to help."

The moment his system said this, Arthur suddenly paused. "Is it possible to do that?"

"Ding! I believe it's possible, and not only warriors, you can also bring normal monsters here to help them advance," the system said before adding, "Ding! Your three pets have already killed many of these monsters, and they started to show signs of advancements. This place has such unique rules, they don't need to take time to advance, they actually are advancing as they fight."

"Interesting," Arthur muttered before adding, "and worth a shot. C'mon, bring monsters here."

"Ding! What about warriors?"

"No, leave them for now," Arthur shook his head before adding, "those warriors can die and gain no benefits in return of killing monsters here. Not like my garden monsters."

"Ding! Alright, I'll bring a batch of thousand to test."

"Sounds great to me," Arthur then waited, while launching his arrows to cover areas wide enough between his arrays to let many monsters to pass safely from.

The system took a couple of minutes before he finally brought a batch of a thousand monsters. They were all double horned with halos, making Arthur realize why he took all this time in doing that.

"Make them attack those monsters and see," Arthur was excited, as this was such a turning point in this trial.

The monsters received the orders, and like obedient pets they moved fast to the base of the hill, killing any other monster in their way.

The fight suddenly got intensified, and after an entire hour the system started to report.

"Ding! They managed to absorb energy from those monsters they killed. They are evolving, yet needing more monsters to kill."

"Hahaha, so this is all about," Arthur laughed while recalling those special monsters who spoke when he first got here. "it's not me against these monster hordes, it's me against those special monsters with our armies fighting for us."

He finally realized what this all was about. "Bring everything inside my garden, even those newly added monsters provided that they will be controlled by my garden, me, and you."

"Ding! Any monster entered the garden has its soul branded by the garden. So don't worry about them not following orders, they are officially your monsters now."

"Amazing," Arthur laughed again, "send them all, let's clear this world and start exploring it."

Knowing the hidden trick behind the trial here made him confident in his victory at last. He heaved a long sigh of relief when his system moved endless hordes of monsters, which moved to face the incoming enemies.

"I don't need to over exert myself now," he smiled while stopping any kind of attack from his side, leaving the stage clearly to his monsters.

He stood patiently, waited for the monsters to evolve and assess the value of this place.

The first one to advance was Don, which had suddenly grown larger and started to grow more normal horns over his head with time. His rhinoceros was the second, as it started to obtain more horns,and finally it had a crown taking shape.

As for his scorpion queen, she kept fighting with much pleasure and excitement for two days before she showed signs of evolution.

"Wow, I should have brought Tina here," he muttered before adding, 'can you bring her to this place?"

"Ding! I can't," the system answered before explaining, "Ding! I can only bring those you have in the garden, nothing more."

"Can't the garden connect to the outer world?" he asked.

"Ding! Unfortunately no," the system answered.

"Tsk, what a bad luck this little dragon is," he shook his head before thinking about something, "I can come here again and bring her later with me."

"You can, but not this time," the golden dragon said, "you will waste one week here, already months back in your garden. Your time won't suffice for another visit here."

Arthur realized this matter which made him greatly startled. "You are right," he muttered, "I just hope we won't stay here longer than expected."

As he had nothing else to do, he started to think about something else. "I'll train on my cultivation path, to wake me if things got out of control," he said before sitting on the ground and starting to regulate his breathing.

To his surprise, the moment he did so he felt a strange influx of pure spiritual energy coming from this world to his dantian. "Impressive, I can raise my cultivation by a couple of small bases during this week."

Despite having such good news, he wasn't that excited really. He knew he would stay here for a single week, yet he would have wasted months back in the garden world.

This wasn't a fair trade to him, yet he was trying his best not to waste any minute without getting stronger.
