Chapter 729: Chapter 578: Pursuit_2
These mad scientists suddenly lost their foothold.
However, at this point, the Dragon Clan emerged. With the support of the Dragon Clan, these scientists had newfound motivation! After all, they are the Dragon Clan! Possessing such a powerful force, surely, Long Yi couldn’t turn it all around this time! So their only purpose here was to defeat Long Yi!
You’ve got to admit, humans are indeed very clever, they managed to get the gist of these Giant devices quickly. The Giant’s devices are incredibly complex, it’s simply impossible to fully comprehend how they work. Yet, using the Giant’s devices is incredibly easy. The Giant’s devices maintain a consistent principle — simplicity. Even the relatively less intelligent Dragon Clan can use the Giant’s leftover devices, which shows how user-friendly the Giant’s devices are.
With the help of these mad scientists, the revival speed of the Dragon Clan was improving. Furthermore, all the technological advancements accumulated by the Black Dragon Empire were now being applied to the Dragon Clan.
A councilor strutted by those human scientists with his head held high, but the scientists completely ignored him, engrossed in their own research.
Approaching the group of scientists, the councilor suddenly grew timid, carefully avoiding any contact with anyone as he made his way to the central part of the building.
The Life Replication Machine.
This machine can potentially endlessly replicate life from a single sample, as long as sufficient raw materials are supplied.
The device is over a hundred meters long, like a giant box lying on its side. At one end, there is a monstrous creature in a deep slumber. The councilor looks at that creature with an expression full of hostility.
The function of this creature is to supply the Life Replication Machine with a sample.
And at the other end, a similar creature is slowly emerging.
The soul will be transferred into the newly replicated being at the moment of successful replication. This creature has already prepared for battle.
Quietly, the councilor approached from behind the Life Replication Machine and inserted an object made of crystal into the sample creature’s back. This creature has no soul, no consciousness, and thus, didn’t react at all.
Then, he hid similar crystals in various concealed corners of the Life Replication Machine.
There was not a single guard here, and it wasn’t necessary for there to be any.
This place was Dragon Island, and no one dared to launch a surprise attack on Dragon Island.
After completing all of this, the councilor quietly left the scene.
His eyes were flashing with sheer madness!
Meanwhile, in the Burial Ground.
Tyl, with his enormous body, was supporting a tiny scroll, the two were completely disproportionate.
Over the years, Tyl and Raz had completely dominated the entirety of the Burial Ground. Now, there is only one supreme ruler in the Burial Ground, Raz. The gigantic Ghost Dragon was lying beside, its massive body preventing it from seeing the text on the scroll, however, the slightly anxious expression on its face clearly indicated that the content on that scroll was of utmost importance.
Tyl was staring at the scroll in front of him, his face devoid of any emotion. After reading everything, Tyl looked up at Raz standing on the side.
"Lord Raz, please get ready, the real freedom is about to come!"
Compared to normal Dragon clan members and Dragon Knights, Long Yi’s legion, though it dedicated greater effort in previous battles, recovered the fastest. The remaining Dragon clan members and Dragon Knights, although they felt they had not rested enough, in reality, had regained about ninety percent of their physical and mental energy.
At three in the morning, the army quietly set off.
There were not many dragons in the sky, majority of the Dragon Knights gathered on the backs of a few dragons. Meanwhile, their Mount Dragons were in rest mode, crawling on the riders’ backs. As a result, the huge army of three hundred thousand looked just like ten thousand Dragon clan members. And these ten thousand Giant Dragons scattered across the vast plain did not make a sound.
With the cover of night, the dragons ascended high into the sky. Riding the wind, they glided as quietly as possible.
Scouts continuously brought information from ahead. Surprisingly, on the double-headed Black Dragon’s territory, there were hardly any sentinels!
This was simply inexplicable.
Indeed, the Dragon Clan is not human. Their blind faith in their own strength often leads them to make actions that humans fail to understand.
For instance, Gulelie had not stationed any sentinels at this moment. Similarly, the councilors did not make such arrangements either, and nearly all of the double-headed Black Dragons were slithering along the ground for a rest. These Black Dragons were created solely for war. They found no sustenance here and did not expect to find any. From their perspective, this war ought to finish before starvation kicks in, and even if they starve to death, they’ll eventually be resurrected. Albeit, the feeling of hunger is equally unbearable, especially because they haven’t eaten anything since their rebirth. For now, with the conclusion of the war, most of the double-headed Black Dragons lay asleep to mitigate the constant pang of hunger.
Consequently, it provided an excellent window of opportunity for the ambushers.
From high above, Wesley had a full view of the situation. The Red Dragon Knights began to summon their mount dragons. In a blink of an eye, the entire army had dominated the sky!
Meanwhile, Gulelie rested with his eyes closed. Although he is strong, his body is of an old man. He was able to delay his aging through his internal strength but was not able to compensate for the expended energy. Even if he was not actually asleep, he still undoubtedly needed to rest.
Yet undeniably, he felt uneasy, as if something was about to transpire.
He opened his eyes and looked up at the starry sky. The dazzling stars up above were flickering, reflecting the thoughts within his mind.
At this moment, he remembered Long Yi’s request after his victory in the martial arts competition on Dragon Island.
Why did he make such a proposal?
Gulelie was perplexed. Being a Giant and knowing he would be enemies with the Dragon Clan, why would he make such a request? What was his intention?
Gulelie sighed and looked up. The stars flickered more frequently and some shone brighter than before.
"No! Those aren’t stars!"
Gulelie hollered, startling the councilors by his side.
"That’s Dragon Breath! An enemy attack is on its way!"
Boom!
Beams of light had already rained down, immediately followed by blazing explosive missiles from the sky. The double-headed Flying Dragons were still asleep and had no clue about the enemy attack.
The explosion’s sound was mixed with the angry roar of the Dragon Clan. The double-headed Flying Dragons were at their most vulnerable and the abruptness of the attack shocked all of them. Molten iron swept past, Fighting Aura slashes fell, Mental Impacts swelled continuously, and various magic flew about.
The entire battle lasted less than half an hour, then Long Yi and his men promptly withdrew. This battle had begun and ended so abruptly, without the slightest hint. But because it was an ambush, the double-headed Black Dragons suffered substantial losses, while the losses on the White Dragon and Red Dragon side were relatively minimal.
As Long Yi and his men left, Gulelie didn’t give any orders to pursue. He was not sure if Long Yi still had any tricks up his sleeve. After all, chasing after that scoundrel Long Yi would certainly bring no goodness.
Upon returning to their base, every Dragon Knight seemed to be elated. According to Wesley’s report, this ambush had given the combined army of White Dragons and Red Dragons a significant advantage.
Seeing the report, Long Yi finally felt somewhat balanced.
"I’ve always been the one bullying others! Trying to take advantage of me? No way!"
Long Yi gave orders for all to rest in place and remain on high alert. The double-headed Black Dragons who had just been ambushed were expected to strike back soon.
And just as Long Yi predicted, the double-headed Black Dragons charged back, fuelled by anger.
However, what welcomed the double-headed Black Dragons were the victorious soldiers who had just won a battle and had a significant morale boost.
Furthermore, they faced an enemy they had never imagined.
White Dragons.
A full one hundred White Dragons, which had just been freed from their curse, officially joined the war. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote and recommend it on qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
