Chapter 111: Chapter 94 Luring the Snake out of the Hole_1


    In the end, these survivors took the money and food given to them by the others, carrying their grief and pain, and left the destroyed town. Watching their retreating figures, everyone remained silent for a long time. Duanmu Huai retracted his gaze, looked at Ann, and snorted coldly.


    “Well, Princess, now you tell me, how would you convince those in Manaria who lost their homes, friends, and family due to the dragon attacks, when they stand before you, begging you to y those dragons to avenge them, to live peacefully with the dragons?”


    “I……”


    Facing Duanmu Huai’s question, Ann was at a loss for words. She opened her mouth, trying to say something, but seeing the charred houses, carbonized corpses, and everything destroyed in front of her, she didn’t know what to say.


    “But, but… those dragons are not from the dragon race of Regnes…”


    “But they did nothing to stop it.”


    Duanmu Huai coldly interrupted Ann’s timid defense.


    “In the eyes of the victims, those who stand by and do nothing are aplices. Not to mention… the giant dragons of Regnes are still dragons. For them, distinguishing between the two is meaningless, because in any case, the dragons will not help them. Don’t you agree?”


    “………”


    This time, faced with Duanmu Huai’s rebuke, both were silent and Duanmu Huai turned away.


    “Alright, let’s move on. At least we have a destination now.”


    Saving these survivors was not in vain, ording to these survivors, those giant dragons flew from the Icebound Mountains to the north. Since they had not encountered this group of dragons before, it’s likely that they’re still in the Icebound Mountains. Although searching the entire mountain range is still a big task, it’s much better than wandering aimlessly.


    Afterwards, Ann and Greiya were silent along the way. Although they had heard reports before, it was only after witnessing everything firsthand that they truly understood how terrifying the pain, anger, and hatred were. Even the children were not spared, their hearts yearned for the death and destruction of all dragons, and this kind of hatred certainly can’t be resolved with a few words.


    The Metal Secret Dragon was fast. By dusk, the group had arrived at the foot of the Icebound Mountains. Owen tried to persuade the two princesses to eat something, but perhaps the impact of what they had seen was too great, neither had any appetite.


    “Enough, how long do you n to sulk?”


    Seeing the two princesses sitting on the Metal Secret Dragon looking depressed, Duanmu Huai was getting impatient. He smacked Ann on the back, then reached out and grabbed Greiya’s tail.


    “Ah!”


    “Yah!!”


    The sudden attack startled the two princesses, causing them to scream, while Duanmu Huai scowled at them.


    “How about it? Woken up a bit? This is not the time to be moping around, we are on an adventure, and we could encounter enemies at any moment! Who are you daydreaming for? Can daydreaming defeat the evil dragons? Don’t forget what you came out here to do! If you can’t handle it, get lost right away! This is not a child’s game!”


    “I, I won’t go back!!”


    Hearing this, Ann suddenly sprang up.


    “I swear, I will destroy the evil dragons and take revenge for the people of Manaria! And I will do it with Greiya! When the timees, we will return to Manaria with the bodies of the evil dragons! I will tell the people that it was Greiya who helped us defeat the evil dragons! Greiya is not a bad person!!”


    “I, I too…….”


    At this moment, Greiya also nodded vigorously, but for some reason, her face turned red.


    “I will also strive to eliminate Fafner, no matter what, it is my responsibility as a Dragonkin!”


    “Very good.”


    Hearing their responses, Duanmu Huai nodded in satisfaction.


    “Now eat something and prepare for battle!”


    “Battle?”


    “This, this of course is not a problem, but Mr. Knight…….!!”


    At this moment, Greiya looked up at Duanmu Huai, her eyes teary, her face flushed.


    “Please, please let go of my tail, I’m running out of energy…….”


    “Oh, sorry.”


    I must say, this tail feels quite good to hold. It’s plump and soft, veryfortable to touch.


    “But… after witnessing such a scene just now, Mr. Knight, you can still eat?”


    No wonder Ann had this thought. After all, they had just seen human bodies burnt to charcoal, so it was normal not to have an appetite. So, seeing Duanmu Huai and the others eating as usual, both princesses found it somewhat incredible.


    “What else?”


    Duanmu Huai snorted lightly.


    “People only have the strength to fight when they’ve eaten. If you don’t want to eat, that’s your business. But if we encounter a surprise attack and you are too weak to fight because you haven’t eaten and end up getting killed, that would be interesting. The most powerful mage of Manaria was killed because she was hungry? I can live on that joke for a year!”


    “Uh…….”


    After this, the two princesses, who had cheered up a bit, finally returned to normal, ate a little, drank some water, and somewhat regained their energy. Although they were still a bit down, for Duanmu Huai, it was enough that they had recovered to a state where they could fight.


    However…….


    “Mr. Knight, you said battle? Who are we going to battle with?”


    “Of course it’s a giant dragon.”


    Faced with Ann’s foolish question, Duanmu Huai replied rather speechlessly.


    “But… there are no enemies nearby, are there?”


    Owen also raised his own doubts. He thought there was an ambush when he heard Duanmu Huai say they were going to fight, which frightened him into quickly scanning the surroundings, but he did not find any shadows.


    “The enemy is not here, but we can lure them over.”


    Duanmu Huai chuckled, looking up at the Icebound Mountains in front of him.


    “As you’ve heard earlier, the giant dragons that attacked the vige all flew over from the Icebound Mountains, so there’s a high probability that they are still there. But this ce is so vast, it could take us forever to find them. So why not just draw them out.”


    “Draw them out?”


    “How would we draw them out?”


    “Watch this. Cover your ears,” As Duanmu Huai spoke, he summoned two Servo Skulls to fly up into the sky then activated his directional amplification mode.


    Then, facing the Icebound Mountains, he took a deep breath.


    “You lowly, despicable, winged lizards,e out and meet your death!!!”


    With Duanmu Huai’s roar, an ear-splitting curse echoed through the Icebound Mountains.


    “What’s the matter? Got cold feet, you cowards? Despite your massive size, you have smaller guts than a pine nut! If you have the guts,e out. Let’s see how I skin and bone you!!!”


    “Is Fafner an idiot, and are all those under hismand nothing but shifty-eyed scum?!!!”


    “………”


    Even with their ears covered, everyone could hear Duanmu Huai’s thunderous roar and insults. Hearing his roar, everyone looked at each other at a loss, not knowing what to say.


    However, at that very moment…


    “Roar——————!!!”


    An angry roar erupted from within the mountains. Soon after, they saw several ck shadows emerge from the sky and charge towards them.


    “It turns out they’re all a bunch of brainless idiots.”


    Duanmu Huai chuckled, tightly gripping his war hammer.


    “Alright, prepare for battle!”


    It must be said, Duanmu Huai’s method, though crude, was highly effective. In the blink of an eye, several ck shadows descended from the sky, surrounding thempletely.


    “Despicable creature, are you the one who sphemes the majesty of the dragon?!!”


    The ck dragon at the front angrily red at Duanmu Huai and opened its mouth, letting out a ferocious roar. Just being there and watching its massive body was enough to incite fear. However, Duanmu Huai, carrying his war hammer, was not afraid at all.


    “I should be the one asking you that, winged lizard, I……….”


    “Please wait!!”


    However, at that moment, Greiya suddenly interrupted Duanmu Huai. She lowered her hood, raised her head, and looked at the dragon before her.


    “May I ask….were you the ones…who destroyed that small town ahead?”


    “Town? You mean the nest of those monkeys?”


    Perhaps because it saw a fellow dragon, the ck dragon gave a response.


    “Indeed, we did it.”


    “Why? Did you have any grudges?”


    “Grudges??”


    Upon hearing Greiya’s question, the ck dragon snorted coldly.


    “Those monkeys have nothing to do with us. We just wanted some simple fun. Watching those foolish bipeds screaming, fleeing, and then dying under our mes, how entertaining! We, the dragon race, are at the pinnacle of all life. Every other creature is just a toy for us!”


    “Boom!!!”


    However, before the ck dragon even finished speaking, an explosive sound echoed as a dazzling magic light shot up into the sky. When everyone turned their heads, they saw Ann clenching her fists, staring at them angrily.


    “Just… just for fun, you took the lives of those people and destroyed their homes? I will never forgive you…!! Heroic spirit, heed my call and eradicate the enemy!!”


    As she spoke, Ann raised her hand high. The next moment, a heroic spirit knight,rge enough to rival the giant dragon, d in armor and wielding a spear and shield, appeared out of thin air. It raised its spear high and charged towards the ck dragon!


    “Attack!!”


    At that moment, Duanmu Huai also leaped forward, raising his war hammer high and swinging it down hard at the giant dragon!!
