Chapter 1764 Dragonsbane
Peridot used all of the mana that she had and even forcibly used the mana that the surroundings have. The Elemental Apocalypse spell that she casted was able to forcibly break the magic circle that was created by the Angel Mikhail. Still, she was not safe from the effects of Dragonsbane even though she has destroyed the magic circle.

"Seriously!" Peridot stated as she suddenly could not revert back to a humanoid form and crashed to the ground.
Just before she could crash to the ground, the ancient dragons that were not afflicted by Extreme Dragonsbane Poisoning are able to cushion her landing. A great wind vortex suddenly appeared below her and landed her safely on the ground. She was thankful to the dragon that did this and wanted to thank them, but she could not move easily.
"All the ones that have been unafflicted must not touch those that have been afflicted by the Extreme Dragonsbane Poisoning! Those that can still move must go to the area on the other side so that they will not affect the others." One of the few ancient dragons stated.
It was not only dragons that were afflicted by the Extreme Dragonsbane Poisoning but also all beings that have draconic blood in their veins. Even the players that were of the dragonkin race were afflicted as well but the effects on them were reduced by half. Some of the players tried killing themselves in order to get rid off the Extreme Dragonsbane Poisoning but it only made it progressed.
The Extreme Dragonsbane Poisoning is a status ailment that did not vanish even if they are killed. It has already etched into the souls of the dragon race as soon as they were afflicted by it. This was not an easy task to accomplish because one needed a good understanding of souls in order to create an effect like this.
"We must get help from the other races or else they will all die miserably." The ancient dragons that were awake stated as they could see the that even the proud dragon kings could not withstand the effects of the Extreme Dragonsbane Poisoning.
"What if we get the help of other races but they managed to obtain the secrets of the Extreme Dragonsbane Poisoning? Will they not just get another or create another thing like it to make sure that we listen to their demands?" One of the ancient dragons stated as he was far too proud to get help from other races.
"What will be left of the dragon race should we do not get help? There are only a few young ones that are not infected by the Extreme Dragonsbane Poisoning. Some of those that have just grown up are also afflicted as well. What will be left of the dragon race if we do not solve this problem without outside help?" One of the ancient dragons stated as she cared more about the life of the other dragons.
"Not to mention, the daughter of the fierce tyrant of the east has been afflicted by Extreme Dragonsbane Poisoning because she wanted to save us. If she learns of this then even our heads might be sent flying." Another of the ancient dragons pointed out as Peridot was currently lying on the ground in a weakened state.
"We must issue the decree even if we sacrifice some of out draconic essence." The three ancient dragons immediately agreed upon seeing the state that Peridot is in now.

The sudden emergence of a world quest made the players go into a powerful commotion. The rewards for the quest completion were almost god tier as it was basically a chance to become a powerful version of the dragon race for players that are not dragonkins. The most eye-catching reward was none other than the chance to become a dragon if they are of the dragon race.
The dragonkin players that were running late for the end of the Festival of the Dragon King were suddenly filled with a burning passion to find the cure. Not all players of the dragonkin race were present in Dragon Rock as some only wanted to go when the baptism happens while some were not able to go because of some difficulties.
The sudden emergence of the world quest made even the laziest of the players become energetic. A sudden chance to become a Dragonewt is something that the players would want. They all know what the Dragonewt race is because the most famous player of this would be Hou Yiwei and he had to get lots of achievements in order to become this evolved dragonkin.
The fact that they can immediately start to a Dragonewt is something that can only happen in the fantasies of others. They did not expect that such a fantasy would playout since it is usually on in their imaginations. This race change is something even the top guild leaders would want to have as they have seen how powerful a Dragonewt can be due to Hou Yiwei.
The players immediately scrambled to find the cure for the so called Extreme Dragonsbane Poisoning. Some searched the libraries of all information they can find about Dragonsbane. Some immediately headed towards Dragon Rock in order to get some samples from the afflicted dragons.
All the players that wanted to go to Dragon Rock were now perplexed because there was actually no way to go there unless you have a flying mount which is still dangerous. Having an aquatic mount would be another way but it is also very dangerous due to the monsters. Some players even approached the demons from Avalon for help, but they flatly refused as there was an agreement that dragons and demons would never interact via a third party.
If the players wanted to get teleportation access to Dragon Rock, then they should get a dragon representative to talk to the elders of the Daemos race. Even though the demons could transfer them there, the dragons would view this as a sign of hostility as Dragon Rock is a sacred place for dragons. The Daemos does not want to even bother to do anything with regards with the dragons as they are very arrogant according to the former.

"Something happened to Peridot!" Solstice stated as Levin Cloud suddenly bombarded the guild chat that he needs transportation to Dragon Rock immediately.
"It seems that she is afflicted by a poisonous substance. I tried calming him down, but it seems that he might have lost his mind a little that he was severely restrained in Avalon. I can hear Old Man Pann berating me via the trinket that he gave me about Levin Cloud's outburst." Adrian stated.
"Did Peridot not come with Basil?" Apolaki stated as he knows Basil because she is one of the unique players in Pantheon.
"It seems that she is not afflicted but she cannot leave the island as well. It seems that no dragon can leave the island until a cure has been develop in order for them to monitor the spread of the disease." Adrian stated as he was communicating with Peridot of what was happening in real time.
"Is there something wrong?" Maya asked.
"There is. It seems that we have to put the raid on hold. The shadow unit will still monitor the field bosses while we deal with a more pressing matter." Adrian stated.
"In that case, we can just tell the detail to the village chief and stay here for the moment. We need to level up anyways and also get used to these virtual bodies. We can just go to Avalon if we get bored here. We can see the floating island on the distance."?Maya stated.
"Are you sure? One of us can stay and show you guys the ropes." Apolaki stated.
"It is fine. We want to explore the world for ourselves first. We can all play together once we catch up." Tala stated.
