Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 690 - A Meteorite Attack

Just as the system shouted in warning, Arthur instantly turned around and even glanced at the ground.

'Ding! From above… it's a series of meteorites!' The shout of the system made Arthur turn his head at once towards the sky where he spotted a scene that made him freeze.

Up there were many dark dots rapidly penetrating the sky and getting bigger the more time passed. "These… damn!" he couldn't help but curse out loud before turning at once towards the nearby Doaf and realized why he was let by his enemies to come here unhindered.

"Gege… prepare portals to take all of us away," he didn't hesitate to shout, "inform the tree to tell them to enter the portals, no question asked."

He then pushed at once to the front while many portals started to flash miles far, yet the reach of Gege's portals was still limited.

'I need the two of you to get closer,' she shouted while Arthur glanced at the sky again, and this time the shape of these meteorites became clearer.

Each one was like a giant island falling mercilessly towards the ground with a long tail of dark smoke and red fire engulfing them. "we have little time here," he reached to this conclusion, "we need to be swift… Did you inform them already?"

'They are ready,' Gege said, 'but what about you?'

"The same," he simply said, "I'll retreat with all and go towards the sect at once."

'Ding! That seems like a good plan, but those enemies are still coming after Doaf.'

Arthur noticed that behind the small group of Doaf, another group appeared. "They want to delay us," he muttered, "but it's also good… let them come. Gege, y'know what to do, right?"

Leave it to me,' Gege read his mind and knew what he was thinking about. 'I promise to take them all,' she ruthlessly said and Arthur only smiled in contentment.

He then totally ignored the front and his eyes were attracted over the closely coming meteorites. They kept gaining speed the more they descended, and that made them across a large distance in a short time.

Yet Arthur and Doaf's group were fast enough to finally get closer to each other.

"Enter now!" Arthur shouted and the next moment the army went inside the many portals around.

Yet at this moment many attacks started to rain down on them, covering nearly the entire area they were in.

"Leave me for later," Arthur checked again at the descending fiery rocks and realized he got two minutes at most, "let's start hunting them down."

'I've informed everyone,' Gege said, 'they are all ready.'

'Ding! This is going to be a close call,' the system warned, 'keep a portal ready all the time next to him.'

'I will.'

Arthur knew his system was just worried over him and so he didn't argue. The next minute passed and he got so close to the large group of those suicidal monsters and mages.

"Don't let him run away!"

"Trap him!"

"Kill him!"

Many shouts erupted and all the army started to attack him relentlessly. Yet from their far distance Arthur could easily evade their attacks, and not even a single attack landed over him.

"Now!"

All of sudden and just as the dense numbers of those fiery rocks got so close to his head, he shouted and Gege next acted.

"Swoosh!"

"Swoosh!"

"Swoosh!"

Portals suddenly appeared, flashing in extreme speed in front of many enemies. Their sudden appearance made many unable to dodge, and all went inside the garden before the portals vanished and switched places to appear just in front of another group.

Yet some started to take their caution and evade. Despite that and just before Arthur went into the portal next to him, most of that army was already taken inside.

"Kill them all!"

"Don't let anyone live!"

"Surrender or perish!"

"If you don't surrender, we'll kill you."

As the scene changed, the shouts came all of sudden and rained over the entire world. "It's no different than the outside," he laughed while watching his large army hunting down the enemies without showing mercy.

And the most brutal of all was Doaf and his men. They were pushed over the edge for so long. Being so frustrated, they didn't hesitate to use this chance to vent out some anger.

And Arthur stood like a death monarch over them all, observing with cold eyes the killing going on everywhere around for an entire hour before things settled at last.

"How much did we gain?" he casually asked Doaf, Amera, and the crow when they appeared next in front of him with blood covering every single place of their faces and bodies.

"We killed seven thousand so far," Amera laughed, "I believe this is almost one third of their entire elite forces."

"I believe they had more than that," Arthur couldn't help but say. He didn't think the number hunting down Doaf to be this large. "They sent them here to die with us, and that means they don't need them," he explained and the three exchanged silent glances together before nodding.

"But some already surrendered," the crow finally said, which Arthur wanted to hear, "almost two thousands are ready to be enslaved."

"Good," Arthur smiled before adding, "I'll start the process now and you gather up everyone and go outside."

"Isn't the world now under meteorite rain?" Doaf strangely asked.

"You'll go to the sect," Arthur said, "just enter the portals and you'll find yourselves there."

"Great," Doaf laughed, "I didn't vent everything yet. And I doubt my boys did."

"But I have to warn you," Arthur stopped them before adding, "there is a flying army coming to the sect from a different direction and there might be other hidden armies as well approaching the sect as we speak."

"This…" Amera muttered before suddenly laughing, "is simply one of the best fights I ever had in a long time."

The other two viciously smiled and nodded in agreement. "Alright, go and take care of things until I return," Arthur said before adding, "and be ready, I might send you out again."

"As long as we will kill more of those bastards then I won't mind doing it again," Doaf said, "we managed to kill all the giants when we attacked them. Our attack came like thunder over their heads."

"Yeah, and we killed many of their ground forces before we got hunted down," the crow said.

"They don't have as much power as you think," Amera added.

"I'm sure they aren't that weakened yet," Arthur warned, "don't underestimate them."

"We won't," Doaf promised, "let's go, I'm sure my boys will be very excited about this news."

Arthur watched them leave before taking a deep and long breath. "Start preparing the slave contract," he said and waited while many portals took everyone here outside.

'They are ready,' Gege said and then he flashed and started the slave process.

Like this he gained an additional two thousand of those higher up fighters, yet he wasn't that relieved yet. "I'm sure they had more, much more than that," he muttered while thinking about that brutal attack from before.

"Can you check the region attacked by the meteorites through the tree?" he suddenly asked.

'No need to,' Gege sighed, 'the devastation could be seen from even the far away sect.'

"To this degree?" Arthur was surprised, "then it's such a mass destruction technique… we need to guard against it."

'Ding! I think the shield outside is sturdy enough to take such a hit,' the system said.

"I… don't know," Arthur shook his head, "we can't risk it! ask Deem to start a series of dense defensive arrays to support the shield at once."

'I'll pass the word,' Gege said, 'but don't be worried like that. Plus the mechas are about to engage with their enemies and we will get more intel about those enemies soon.'

"Just in time," he said, "what about the other army?"

'It's getting closer,' Gege said, 'but the shockwave of that meteorite attack delayed them a bit. After all they got involved in the gigantic cloud of dust.'

"I hope they would lose some in the middle of that," Arthur prayed, "how about saving those poisoned here?"

'They are still working their best to heal as many as they can.'

"And the scanning process for the sect?"

'They are still midway,' Gege said, 'the sect is really huge and they need a lot of time to finish searching every rock there.'

"Tell them not to rush things," Arthur warned, "if we missed a place and a trap was there, then we would lose a lot."

'I understand.'
