Chapter Thirteen: The Abnormality of Death Forest
I hope everyone will wait until it's ripe before killing it, haha, thank you.
Sophie elegantly picked up her cup, took a light sip, and suddenly seemed to think of something, turning serious: "Maple, do you know if there's been anything unusual about the 'Death Forest' recently?"
"What's wrong? Nothing." Liu Feng said with some confusion.
"We received several messages a few days ago, a large number of high-level demon beasts left the interior of the 'Death Forest' and surged outwards. Many weaker mercenary groups have already been annihilated." Sophia said with a serious expression.
"Oh, there's such a thing." Liu Feng was slightly surprised, his heart moved, and he thought of the day when he saved Kens, wasn't it because a seventh-order magical beast "Fire Cloud Lion" appeared outside the forest?
"How will the Mercenary Guild handle this matter?" Liu Feng asked.
"Hehe, the Mercenary Guild has finally released an A-level mission 'Investigate the Monster Riot in Death Forest', and many powerful mercenary groups on the continent are already rushing to 'Death Forest'. It's been years since an A-level mission appeared, those mercenary groups are like dogs seeing bones, wolves seeing... generally excited!" Sophie said with a coquettish smile, adding two sentences of rough language she had heard at the Mercenary Guild.
Liu Feng stroked his chin and smiled: "Then this time, 'Adventure Town' is going to be a sensation."
"Hehe, Feng, you're in trouble too." Su Fei giggled like a little fox.
"What troubles could I possibly have? Those monsters weren't summoned by me." Liu Feng asked in puzzlement.
"Hehe, I heard that the leader of the Four Great Mercenary Groups this time is their young commander, known in the mercenary world as one of the 'Four Great Mercenary Geniuses'." Sophia said with a smile, counting on her slender white fingers.
Looking at the enchanting smile on Yuren's mouth, Liu Feng suddenly felt a stir in his heart and asked, "Are they all your pursuers?"
"Pineapple, congratulations on answering correctly, unfortunately there is no prize." Su Fei said with a smile, patting her jade-like hand.
Liu Feng shrugged, his face full of indifference. However, seeing Su Fei's pretty face stiffen up due to his attitude, he could only say viciously: "If anyone dares to have ideas about you, I'll kill him."
Although the words are arrogant, they are based on a foundation of strength, and only the strong have this qualification.
In a month's time in Adventure Town, as Sophie said, countless mercenaries rushed to the town from all over the mainland.
The winds rise and clouds gather, strong ones assemble.
In the adventurer's town, the population suddenly surged, and the local inns were packed to the brim. The inn owners were overjoyed, their mouths stretched wide with laughter, as they watched the mercenaries coming and going on the streets, treating them like their own fathers had arrived.
A week has passed and due to the extreme danger of Death Forest, the Mercenary Guild advised mercenaries not to enter temporarily. Most mercenaries reluctantly agreed.
Another week has passed and the mercenaries have finally lost their patience.
The next day, the first mercenary corps rushed into the Death Forest in a hurry, and then countless mercenaries also surged in.
The town suddenly became much cleaner.
But the mercenaries who entered the Death Forest were like they had vanished, and not one of them returned. The bustling mercenaries in the town fell into a low mood.
A week later, a mercenary covered in blood stumbled out of the Death Forest and was rescued by passing mercenaries.
On that day, a shocking explosion message came out of the mouth of a mercenary who had just woken up.
"In the Death Forest, there is a black giant dragon. Next to the black dragon is a gigantic egg covered in blood vessels. The dragon's strength... 9th rank... probably just after giving birth, its strength suddenly dropped."
In half a day's time, the news spread rapidly throughout the entire Night Luminous Continent through various channels.
The news spread and the mainland was shaken.
Giant Dragon, the pinnacle of the food chain on the Dark Continent, a powerful tribe that dares to rival the gods.
Most adult dragons are above the Holy Rank and below the Supreme Rank. The king of the dragon clan is even born directly at the Supreme Rank.
However, the law of the creator god is also fair, with gain comes cost.
The giant dragon obtained the power of the world's strongest, but lost its normal reproductive ability. As a result, the number of giant dragons never exceeded 500. At the peak of the giant dragon clan, there were only about 300. However, after the era of the gods, their numbers drastically decreased. Even though they have been cultivating for hundreds of years, there are still only around 100 left today.
Due to the giant dragon's formidable power, it triggered human greed, and they foolishly wanted to possess it for themselves, achieving their own evil ambitions.
However, as the giant dragon at the top of the golden pyramid, how could it possibly obey humans who are like ants in their eyes? Thus, countless people with evil intentions all disappeared under the angry dragon's breath.
However, human greed did not end there. When they saw that capturing adult giant dragons was hopeless, they turned their attention to the slightly weaker young dragons and dragon eggs.
The Hols Empire, the continental overlord a century ago, occupied nearly half of the territory of the Night Umbra continent, and no empire at that time could resist it alone.
The reason is that the Hols Empire has a giant dragon... a red giant dragon.
Every breath on the battlefield will take away the lives of hundreds of soldiers, under its vast dragon power, any creature is trembling with fear, dare not provoke it.
This giant dragon was obtained by the Hols Empire after much effort, and at the time of its acquisition, it was still an unhatched dragon egg.
However, the Hols Empire used evil dark magic to forcibly bring it into being, and sacrificed the dragon's long lifespan in exchange for rapid growth.
One year later, the giant dragon matured and the Hols Empire began its conquests.
With the help of a giant dragon, the Hols Empire quickly occupied vast territories.
However, the giant dragon, after three years, on top of a grand war, gradually died due to exhaustion of vitality. The Hols Empire also suffered a great defeat and was forced to retreat by countless allied forces, ceding territory and surrendering.
Although the dream of the Hols Empire's conquest of the mainland was shattered, all the major empires clearly felt the powerful effect of the giant dragon on the battlefield.
After that, all major empires were secretly and openly seeking news of young dragons or dragon eggs. Often a single rumor could bring countless killings.
However, the human's rampant capture of dragon eggs finally brought the wrath of the giant dragons.
The giant dragon has been in existence for eighty years, and the entire clan of giant dragons launched an attack on the Fuhang Empire, which was notorious for its capture of dragon eggs at that time. Eighty-seven giant dragons were involved in this attack.
The Afghan Empire, with all its might, resisted it.
Three days... In just three short days, 280,000 troops were completely annihilated.
The Durrani Empire was destroyed.
Mainland shock.
The giant dragon tells all living things on the continent with its powerful and domineering power that goes against heaven.
There is an inverted scale on the dragon's back; whoever touches it will provoke its wrath.
The giant dragon has been silent for fifty years, and now the giant dragon clan is spreading news again.
The Black Dragon Clan has been severed from the Dragon Clan, and the Dragon Clan will no longer interfere with any of their actions.
In an instant, the Black Dragon Egg became the most precious thing on the mainland, and everyone went crazy for it.
I hope everyone, this book is about to be updated in the new library. If you think there are too few words, wait until it's updated and then read it, haha, thank you!
