1283 Mishap 1 (1/2)
”You still aren't leaving yet?” Ann's voice instantly appeared in Garen's mind.
Garen was speechless as he levitated in the air. He stared at the crevice pitifully as he hoped that Ann would throw out the Suffering Cores. Since she might not see them as valuable items, he would gladly take them away.
It would be a waste for him to not take these cores.
However, it seemed that Ann did not intend to throw them out.
Garen shamelessly waited for a while longer and reluctantly left after realizing that it was hopeless.
He turned his head around and looked at the snowy peak before flying back into the blizzard.
He was unsure of Ann's identity, but he knew that she was way above him, especially when he first witnessed the ridiculous power where time seemed to have been reversed. Garen had never encountered such a ridiculous power, even when he was in the Mech World where the laws were the most lenient.
To be able to instantly recover what had already been destroyed. Something this ridiculous could only be referred to as a miracle...
Garen then flew into the white blizzard which connected the sky and the earth, carrying the remnants of his doubts along with him.
It was different from the previous experience as the necklace on his neck vanished as if it had never existed. At first, Garen could not see anything in front of him, and the next thing he realized was that he had already arrived at the entrance of the Fiery Blaze Mountain Range, which was directly in front of him.
The sky was already dark, and the purple crescent moon showered everything underneath it with a silver moonlight.
Garen was certain that he was inside the blizzard a moment ago; there was no longer a single indication of a blizzard around him.
”The blizzard appears at one second and disappears at the next. This is indeed mysterious... Perhaps it is a secondary plane independent of the primary plane?”
He did not put much thought into it; it would be pointless even if he had done so.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
He increased his speed as he started flying toward the White Dragon Clan.
*************
Deep within the Fiery Blaze Mountain Range.
A faint green fire was burning inside the cave.
”It happened again... They couldn't even release the Projection Scroll in time.” A pale, old voice came from the depths of the cave.
”We have already lost three knights. We have never encountered such a loss since the past few thousand years,” the silver-striped Knight said softly.
He and another silver-striped Knight were kneeling down in front of the green fire.
”I've done enough preparation this time but they couldn't even open up the scroll in time... My tracker had disappeared as well.” The old and pale voice sounded confused. ”Perhaps there exists a secondary plane nearby, since leaving the primary plane is the only way to disconnect the tracker that I created.”
”Master, do you wish to negotiate with the White Dragon Clan?” A beautiful female voice came from one of the dark corners.
”What's the point of looking for them? Even the White Dragon Clan does not wish to provoke the being behind that abnormal soul. That being is, at the very least, a Level Nine since it was able to eliminate two Level Seven instantly,” The old and pale voice responded.
”What do you mean?” The female voice sounded puzzled.
”We shall wait and see. Soon, something will happen to that small clan... And we will act when they're too busy with their own affairs. The movement of the Snow City... is soon...”
”I understand...” The female voice stopped speaking. She seemed to have recalled something as she understood what he was referring to.
**************
Four months had passed in a blink of an eye.
Garen had holed up inside the clan ever since his return for several reasons. Firstly, he was waiting to be summoned to collect Demon Cores. Secondly, it was obvious that the opponent had an incredibly-powerful organization backing two of the Suffering Knights whom he encountered back then. It was an organization so powerful that he currently could not fight against. Hence he decided to stay within the Elder's Peak to continue his training.
The rest of the teenage dragons from the teenage class had been summoned to participate in the war and only a few dragons had yet to be summoned. Garen was one of them. He even suspected that the summoner had accidentally died somewhere in the battlefield.
Since there were no updates, he decided to wander around within the White Dragon Clan.
Ever since he was reincarnated into this world, he did not dare to wreak havoc everywhere because his soul was unique. There was supervision being done by the God, not to mention the old White Dragon God lived in the area too. However, he felt that he had almost solved the issue in which his soul and body were not coordinated with each other.
Hence, he finally had enough courage to start understanding the overall situation around him.
He would set out every morning and start moving around the residential area. He would slowly fly around the Elder's Peak and avoid places protected by the Dragon Guards as well as private properties that had obviously been spread with the Draconic Aura.
It took Garen four full days to finish checking out the entire White Dragon Clan's area.
The Elder's Peak was not just a single peak. With the main peak as the epicenter, there were thirty-two other secondary peaks surrounding it, all of which housed the strongest and highest authoritative White Dragons.
Further out from the main peak was the residential area of the weaker White Dragon families. The outermost regions were the forests and breeding grounds. There were humans from the Deladia Empire living in the forest, together with the Thunder Snake of the Vassal Clan. There were also Dog-headed Humans as the minority. They knew how to speak in the Draconic Language even though they had just migrated here for less than a year. The Sacrificial Scroll unique to the Dog-headed Humans were the popular currency among the humans. They relied on the White Dragon Clan to protect them from the wild creatures and the small market that the humans had created had started to develop. The items that could be bought had expanded, and the variety had increased as well. Naturally, the prices had become more reasonable.
Occasionally, living beings from the other clans would bring their specialties along to make a trade as well.
They had been breeding dragon beasts species in groups in the breeding ground. They were the main cannon fodders in the war and would often be sold to the humans as pets or carriers. The material required to create the Dragon Leather Scroll which the Wizards required originated from them as well. The Dragon Leather Scroll and the Dragon Blood Ink actually did not derive from the bodies of the authentic dragon clan. In fact, they were products obtained from these dragon species.
In these aspects, the White Dragon Clan seemed to have reached a long-term agreement with the nobles from the Deladia Empire.
