385 Chapter 385 Sky Island
The cloud was thick that night, but Aldred and the others kept staring up, waiting.
“Just wait. It will appear,” Wena said.
A few seconds later, the clouds parted and the three moons revealed itself.
“They have turned white!” a soldier exclaimed in shock because he had never seen the moons done that before.
“Wait! Look over there!”
Everyone narrowed their gaze towards the distance.
“It’s an island!”
“It’s a flying island!”
“That’s our destination!” Aldred shouted. “Everyone, fly up!”
The dragons roared and leaped off the ground before they flapped their wings, piercing through the air at high speed.
Aldred smiled. “This is it. This is our last destination. We will change the world after this.”
Everyone smiled after hearing that including Wena while Zara hoped that day would ever come true.
But suddenly, thousands of creatures leaped off the ground and flew skyward.
“Adventurers!”
Aldred clicked his tongue. “Seriously, how am I still have competitors.”
“The world is bigger than you think, Aldred. A lot of people doesn’t have your skills and abilities, but you also don’t have theirs,” Wena said.
“That might be true.” Aldred nodded in agreement. These adventurers were tough. They always find ways to get back into the game.
“But they don’t have dragons.” Aldred smiled.
When the adventurers noticed the presence of one another, they were shocked that someone else knew what they knew.
Zakos Valik was sent here by a noble from the Ceraisian Empire. Almost every noble had a few adventure group under their thumb to do their biddings. And it was especially useful to have in situations like this.
He was the leader of VenomBow, and just like its name, the main weapons of this group was a bow coated with poison magic.
“Kill every target you see,” He calmly said as he drew his bow and fired an accurate arrow to the neck of a pegasus.
The pegasus was pushed, but it kept going until its skin turned purple, and its feather began to shed.
“Fuck, my mount has been poisoned!”
Even though the man realized that, it was too late for him. The pegasus began to fall, bringing the man along with him.
His scream was only one among many that fell from the sky.
“Not bad for a group of human.”
Zakos looked to the side and noticed a large group of elves aiming their bows at them.
“My name is Carmaris Cedarfond. Make sure to remember that in your afterlife, human.”
Zakos’ whole body jolted as his mouth went wide open to give command to his men.
Carmaris grinned as his subordinates rained arrows upon the enemy.
But VenomBow wasn’t an easy group to defeat. For one reason or another, they managed to avoid critical injuries from the volley of arrows, and began to counter.
Aldred watched the adventurers killed each other with all kinds of weapons.
“Stupid. Fighting in the sky is no use. They all should wait until island,” Zara said.
“No. It’s a good thing. This way, we can cull their numbers before we set foot on the island,” Aldred said with a smile.
“Wena, please communicate my instructions to the dragons. Helped me eradicate the enemy.”
Wena nodded without hesitation.
Aldred looked at his enemies and his eyes glinted with cold sheen.
Under his command, the dragons all dived down, and struck everything in their path.
With their true form revealed, the dragons could now use their true power, and it painted the sky with myriads of color.
Aldred’s dragon belched a powerful green beam that vaporized everything it touched.
He gave it a pat as he pointed at another target. The dragon understood his instructions and blasted the man out of the sky.
“Fuck! What are these dragons!? Their attacks are more powerful than any dragons I have seen!”
Zakos and Carmaris noticed Aldred and his army of dragons.
“Hey, elf. We should set aside our battle and deal with them first.” Zakos pointed.
Carmaris furrowed his eyebrows as he stared at the dragons massacring the adventurers. “Fine.”
Zakos and Carmaris led their men away from each other and began attacking the dragons.
Aldred noticed this development soon later. “Someone from the Ceraisian Empire?”
His dragon vaporized dozens of archers before he stopped in front of Zakos. “We come from the same nation. Work with me.”
Zakos frowned and took a careful look at Aldred’s face. “You are… hahaha. I can’t believe this. You are Aldred.”
“How did you know my name?”
“Your face and name has been announced in every corner. There is a big bounty for your head.”
“How much did they put on me?”
“Death or alive. Whoever did it will become a Duke.”
Aldred grinned, and then he burst into laughter.
Zakos frowned. “Why are you laughing. Everyone will be hunting you.”
Aldred could not hold his laughter, and he kept laughing like a maniac. He then stopped and looked at Zakos. “Them putting a high bounty on me means that they cannot kill me with their own hand. The emperor is weaker than I thought.”
Zakos wore a difficult expression after hearing that. ‘This man doesn’t’ feel scared or anxious at all when an entire nation is hunting him. And it’s the Ceraisian Empire. One of the strongest nation on this continent!’
Being affiliated with him in any way would be a bad idea.
“I am sorry, but I have to refuse your offer,” Zakos said.
“Oh, so you have chosen death?”
Sweat trickled down Zakos’ forehead. “No. I want us to stay away from each other until we get on the island.”
Aldred’s gaze became cold. “Only the strong gets to decide their fate. You are weak. You are my enemy. Therefore, you will die.”
“Arrogant bastard!” Zakos fired his arrows.
Aldred ferociously bit it and held it with his mouth.
“Impossible!” His eyes widened
“Now die!” Aldred reached out with his hand.
“RED RAIN.”
The sky instantly turned crimson red, and everyone halted in mid-air before they looked up.
That was when a sharp pain struck their mind and they held their head, holding the pain with gritted teeth.
“What is this power?” Zakos watched in shock.
“The power that will let me rule the world.”
Giant red spears became falling from the sky by the thousands.
