Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

"Go, there are sixty-five targets you should look for and destroy," he said before adding, "if you found them in the return route then kill them and start digging for the places in the array."

"Alright," they all said in unison before diverting into thirty-five smaller groups. Each group headed towards different directions while some knew their targets and others just went around looking for theirs.

"I hope they could find them in time," Arthur muttered while he wasn\'t feeling much pressure yet. "Destroying one point would make the array lose much of its power. Destroying up to one fourth of it will render it useless."

This was his reassuring point as that youth already knew the routes of at least fifteen of these teams.

\'Be aware that one array might escape their grasp,\' the golden dragon said.

\'You are correct, I should think about a counter measure then,\' Arthur sighed, \'how can I kill such a monster if he was brought forth to this world?\'

\'This…\' the golden dragon was hesitant, \'as far as I know being here is too much over the entire world. I hope the world will be ready for such a scenario.\'

\'Ding! I\'ll try to convey this message to the world\'s will.\'

\'This is a good move,\' Arthur said before adding, \'but it\'s not enough. I need  a weapon or a way to kill that beast.\'

\'I believe no one here has such power,\' the golden dragon sighed, \'if your godfather was here then we might stand a chance against such an ancient beast.\'

\'George…\' Arthur softly sighed, \'from the beginning I tried to reach him with no avail.\'

\'Ding! I hope he will come here to watch this competition,\' the system said, \'Ding! After all this world isn\'t much protected like the world of the academy I think.\'

\'I hope so,\' Arthur said, \'but away from that, there is no other way around, right?\'

\'…\'

\'…\'

\'I have a way,\' Gege suddenly said, \'but you won\'t like it.\'

\'Really?\' Arthur sighed, \'c\'mon tell it to me. I have a feeling it would be very bad.\'

\'It\'s…\' Gege herself seemed quite hesitant before adding, \'You know about that egg inside my body, right?\'

\'The one I snatched before, what about it?\'

\'I planned to use it to build up my human body,\' Gege sighed, \'this egg contained a massive amount of energy that would be more than enough to evolve me a couple of times more.\'

\'Do you want to use it to kill the beast? How?\'

\'Not using it alone,\' Gege said, \'I have to step in to control the egg.\'

Arthur felt more bad about it. \'And?\' he asked.

\'I\'ll start my evolution and use the beast as another source of energy.\'

\'Where is the bad news then?\' Arthur didn\'t believe this was everything.

\'Well… I will have to go into deep slumber for a period of time.\'

\'How long exactly?\'

\'One year.\'

\'…\'

Arthur was shocked even though his flying paused for a moment before he returned to fly again. \'This…\' he didn\'t know what to say.

\'And you already aware I\'m connected to your energies and dantian,\' she didn\'t stop spilling more bad news, \'you won\'t be able to upgrade them at all during my slumber plus the access to the star map will be severed.\'

\'This can\'t be done,\' Arthur didn\'t even hesitate to decline this option, \'If I do this I might escape the attack of the beast but won\'t be able to survive here for so long.\'

\'Ding! One year is really a long time,\' his system agreed on his decision.

\'Is there a way to shorten it?\' his golden dragon tried to find a mid solution for this crisis.

\'Well… if we managed to find another source of energy to support me, then yeah this period can be shortened.\'

\'How much?\' Arthur asked.

\'According to the type of that treasure,\' Gege said, \'if we are speaking about the egg for example, then this period can be shortened not to exceed three months.\'

\'Even this…\' Arthur sighed, \'Didn\'t we find an egg inside the origin world I once went to? You are absorbing it too, right?\'

\'I didn\'t finish absorbing it yet,\' Gege sighed, \'I need more time to do that.\'

Arthur thought a bit about this dilemma before adding, \'what if you absorbed it during your slumber?\'

\'It\'s a slumber… my conscious won\'t be there to do that!\'

Arthur felt every possible way was blocked in front of his face. \'I can\'t risk losing you for such a long time my dear.\'

\'Oh, and here I thought you already forgot about me,\' she chuckled while trying to crack a joke.

\'Let\'s hope this scenario will never come,\' he had to end the discussion here while his mind was troubled heavily by this disastrous situation. \'We need to make sure the three arrays are damaged or else…\'

He didn\'t need to speak more as everyone inside his mind was already aware of the grave results for such a fate.

\'Ding! There is a group to the north east from here,\' the system suddenly spoke after a few hours of flying, \'Ding! They match the group we are looking for.\'

\'Are they going or returning?\'

\'Ding! Still going.\'

\'Damn… flying for five hours and still moving forward… Was that dude so afraid of me figuring out his plan and ruining it to such a degree?\'

He turned to his werewolf and motioned to follow. The werewolf knew something was up even before seeing the group of almost a thousand up front of them.

And they were running with their fastest speed towards the front but their speed was much lower than Arthur\'s speed.

"Got you," he said before adding, "don\'t kill them all. We need more intel about the other groups."

"Sure," the werewolf simply said before the two of them descended upon the enemies like an apocalypse.

The first he used was his arrows as he launched dozens of them even before reaching the running group.

"Watch out!"

"Intruders!"

"Scatter fast!"

Shouts started to erupt as some spotted Arthur and his werewolf coming towards them. Yet they were slightly late to act as Arthur\'s arrows landed fast and killed a good number of them.

Then Arthur started spraying his fire breath over their heads while the werewolf jumped from a spot to another, harvesting lives without much hurdle.

The fight wasn\'t balanced from the beginning, and Arthur and his werewolf managed to kill most of the group in less than half an hour without having a single injury.

Only a handful of a hundred remained, including the boss of this team.

"Speak and live, keep your secrets with you then I promise they will take you to your graves," Arthur stood in the air a few tens of meters above the surviving group.

His words and tone were so cold and direct that everyone knew he wasn\'t bluffing.

"We won…"

One of the group was courageous enough to speak up expressing his refusal, but Arthur was much faster than him as he used a normal arrow and killed the mage before he could even finish his words.

"Anyone foolish enough to die for nothing?" Arthur turned his gaze around before adding, "one way or another one of you will speak making those who died look more foolish than ever."

"Kill!"

Just as he ended his words, a group shouted and instantly a fight erupted between themselves. Arthur didn\'t need to tell the werewolf what to do, and he also stepped in using his arrows to kill those who were trying to kill the others.

But he couldn\'t save everyone as in no time everyone was either trying to attack or defend, while both were aiming at each other\'s napes of the neck.

"Sigh, only twenty now remains," Arthur glanced over the scattered dead bodies underneath him. At some point he had to let those fighting each other alone while protecting those who were innocent here.

"Speak," he didn\'t need to threaten them anymore as he perfectly knew this little group was cowards.
