Chapter 1765 Cure for Dragonsbane I
A lot of players started to rummage all they wanted to know about Dragonsbane because this is something that can determine the fate of a single player. The quest difficulty was not set but one could say that this very quest is something that can affect the entire lives of the dragon race and the dragon kin. If no one finds a cure, then the fighting force of the dragons that were keeping the angels at bay would rapidly diminish.
Adrian teleported with Apolaki while Solstice told them that she would need to go to another place to look for a solution. Adrian and Apolaki vanished from the area as they headed to Avalon. Apolaki immediately left for the secret islands in the southeast part of the eastern continent as he thought that there might be cure all herbs for dragons there.
Adrian already knows that secret place which is called Mahar Lika. A place where gods can fully materialize, and it is the most fascinating place that Adrian has been to. Adrian could feel that place itself was alive and did not dare to explore it without a guide as even Apolaki told him that he has yet to go to all of the land that is Mahar Lika.
"Let us go see my raging best friend then." Adrian stated as he immediately went towards the middle of Avalon where the Tree of Life and Death is located.
Adrian was greeted by the Tree of Life and Death with a fully bound Levin Cloud on the trunk of the tree. One could see that the Tree of Life and Death has volunteered to incapacitate him since the other elders were busy. The Daemos elders were too busy to spoil a child that is throwing a tantrum.
"Feeling a bit more…calm? I heard a report that you erupted in such anger that all the trees in the territory suddenly almost turned into monsters. You actually filled them with both life and death energy to the point that they almost became ents." Adrian stated.
"Mhsmsmp … mmppsp!" Levin Cloud exclaimed as he still has his mouth gagged.
"You can take off the mouth gag please. Thank you very much, Yewdrassil." Adrian stated as the Tree of Life and Death took out the vines that gagged Levin Cloud's mouth.
"I can finally speak! I told you that I am already calm enough so you can let me go." Levin Cloud stated.
"Are you?" Adrian asked with squinting eyes.
"I am. I have already calmed down because I have been hanging here for an hour. I was also frozen in time before that but that is beside the point. I am ready for a civil conversation." Levin Cloud stated.
"Okay then. Can you please let him go? Thank you." Adrian stated as the Tree of Life and Death created a thumbs up using a vine hanging from it.
Levin Cloud can now freely move his body after being subdued for an hour. He was able to calm down a bit and suddenly sprinted towards the guild house. Adrian sighed as he knew what his reckless best friend is about to do.
With a snap of Adrian's finger, Levin Cloud suddenly stopped moving as if he was frozen in time. Levin Cloud tried hard to make sure that his body would move. He even tried to transform himself into plants, but he could not do that as well. All of his body was frozen in time and the mastermind is none other than his own best friend.
"Near huh! I learned how to do this by carefully reading the chrono energy present in the surrounding. Also, I am empowered in my own territory which is why I can easily do this. If it is in another place, then I bet I can barely stop them in place." Adrian stated.
"You knew I was going for the teleportation circle." Levin Cloud stated.
"That I did. I also know that if you used it and placed the coordinates of Dragon Rock then you will die. A powerful barrier is placed on that island that prevents any form of teleportation inside of it. Should you succeed in teleporting, the powerful barrier would crush you immediately upon entry.
That is the reason why the elders or any of the Daemos are not helping you or any other players for that matter. If you were to choose a coordinate just beside Dragon Rock, then you would be directly sent to the Harsh Sea. It is basically a place where Blade Piranhas are the most common fish at the bottom of the barrel.
You would die before you even reach Peridot which is why I am stopping you. Am I clear? Or do I have to lock you in a pocket dimension because I am very capable of that in my own territory. I can assure you that I am not joking." Adrian stated in a serious tone.
"Guild Leader! Vice Guild Leader?!" Ark stated as he and Pana got out of the guild house to see a weird scene.
"Can I help you two?" Adrian asked.
"Can you help us get to Dragon Rock? I cannot carry Pana there on my own as we might get attacked from the sky. The sky ships are also fully booked to the point that all tickets for today have been sold out." Ark stated.
"I guess people are crazy about becoming a Dragonewt or a dragon. Even the dragonkin in our guild that were late to go to Dragon Rock are frantically looking for a way to dispel Dragonsbane. Also, why is the vice guild leader like that?" Pana stated.
"He was about to do something stupid and use the teleportation circle to teleport himself to Dragon Rock. I already informed him of the danger, but it seems that he keeps insisting. I will only release him after he calms down and also… why are you two filled with spatial interference energy? Did you two use the teleportation circle?" Adrian stated.
"Maybe you should have warned us about the dangers first. We kind off use it along with other eager guild members as we wanted to be the first at Dragon Rock. We were able to get there but an invisible force suddenly smashed us into meat pastes as soon as we arrived. It was not a very nice feeling." Ark stated as he laughed it out, but one can see the trauma induced in his eyes.
"We wanted to help Basil immediately, but that kind of thing happened." Pana added a little embarrassed as well.
Adrian snapped his fingers and Levin Cloud was released from his temporal isolation. He saw the way Ark and Pana looked after experiencing a horrific thing which is why he actually snapped back to reality. He suddenly felt that he should not be that dumb or else he might get an earful from Peridot instead.
"I told you I am telling the truth. Thankfully, we have witnesses that personally experienced it. Tell me, how is it to be squashed by retracting space? It can even affect me since a spell is used." Adrian stated as the spell to prevent teleportation wrapped around Dragon Rock is not something that prevents teleportation but a spell that kills those that teleport in it.
"It was not a great experience because you get this claustrophobic feeling before dying which makes it ten times worse." Ark stated to which Pana nodded vigorously.
"If it is like that then I can probably arrive there then. I can just revive myself on the spot as my first life will be used to arrive while the second one is to make sure that I get there." Levin Cloud stated.
"Do what you wish. If that is what you thought of then I will not stop your foolishness. Make sure to get a sample of the disease if you can then." Adrian stated as he did not want to admit but that plan was indeed plausible as he can arrive there as the first outsider.
"Thanks! I will get the sample and see if I can cure it by myself as well. Can you look into Dragonsbane for me?" Levin Cloud stated.
"Sure. Just go if you want to." Adrian stated as he has a headache dealing with his crazy best friend right now.
"Thanks! I will bring you guys good news." Levin Cloud stated as he entered the guild house.
A few seconds after, the magic circle of the guild house activated. Levin Cloud was able to leave Avalon and arrive at Dragon Rock. Adrian could hear the sound of his loud scream and vines cracking but he ignored it. He needed to find information about Dragonsbane as soon as possible as he did not want to bet on the chance that Levin Cloud could cure it.
"If it can be cured by priests then they would have been cured already by the Dragon Shamans there. The angels must have also factored in healing magic into the equation which is why the dragons had no choice but to call for help." Adrian stated.
