Don't Mess with That Dragon

Chapter 187: Thunderstorm Strikes (First Update)


Zzzla!

Lightning tore through the sky, piercing the void, arcs of fire surrounding Austin's body, with brilliant light shimmering on the blue scales. The gigantic figure soared into the sky.

As the Legendary Law that had gradually unlocked a trace of power began to affect the sky covered by clouds and mist, a dense black cloud floated over without anyone noticing, thunder faintly visible within.

To command wind and thunder is the authority of the Blue Dragon, and also the power hidden in the body of the Giant Dragon by the Legendary Law!

The black clouds rolled, covering the sky above, and the air was filled with an oppressive sensation that stifled the heart.

The next moment,

Thunder Strike Technique · Thunderstorm!

With the activation of the talent magic, in an instant, dozens to hundreds of thunderbolts crashed down from the sky under the heavy clouds, transforming into columns of light that pierced the earth and engulfed the Snake Valley where the Giant Snake coiled, shattering the thick clouds below the Wet Bone Forest!

With Austin's growth, the power had increased tenfold, a hundredfold compared to two years ago. Back when the Thunder Strike Technique awakened, using it once would consume over half his strength.

But now, with the Thunder Strike Technique as the core, combined with the vast heavenly thunder in the thunderstorm, in an instant, the terrifying scene of hundreds of lightning bolts crashing down was induced!

Rumble!!!

Amid the earth-shattering thunderous roar, the group of giant snakes resting in Snake Valley awoke one after another, looking up at the sky.

These giant snakes, perhaps belonging to those that rest during the day and are active at night, would lay coiled in Snake Valley during the day to sleep. Added to the snakes' rather insensitivity to external movements, even when the Dragon Nest Legion approached, they showed no reaction.

Ultimately, this survival habit brought them a catastrophe!

Rumble!!!

Dozens to hundreds of thunderbolts crashed down from the sky, the terrifying thunderstorm engulfing the entire valley entrance, visible electric light blossoming, igniting and charring both the shrubs and the soil in an instant.

One by one, the giant snakes writhed in agony amid the thunderstorm, their powerful bodies containing lifeforce allowing them to withstand the thunder's power without immediately turning into charred black coal. Yet this powerful lifeforce made their suffering even more terrifying.

The entire entrance to Snake Valley became an ocean of lightning at that moment, with giant snakes violently rolling, wailing in agony, their scales being torn apart by the spreading lightning, wounds falling off, and the skin being charred by the lightning.

After a good while, the thunderstorm at the valley entrance ceased, with the entire Snake Valley filled with struggling, writhing giant snakes, their skin black as charcoal, and the air filled with the aroma of grilled meat.

"This is the power of His Highness Austin!"

The thunderstorm fell from the sky, and even the dense mist enveloping Snake Valley was dispersed and shattered, the view ahead becoming clear.

All the beastmen looked at everything inside Snake Valley, their hearts filled with unbelievable shock.

This is their guardian deity, leading tens of thousands of beastmen, the great overlord commanding authority within a hundred-mile radius—His Highness Austin's power!

That divine power like the wrath of thunder, like omnipresent divine might, went straight into the heart of every beastman.

"This dragon..."

Within the legion, Gory stared at the shadow flickering in the sky, his gaze flickering, his inner thoughts unknown.

Perhaps serving under such a powerful individual might be rather beneficial...

"All troops, advance!"

Rodney, being the first to recover from the shock, immediately waved his hand and issued an order.

"Charge! Kill them for me!"

With the rattling clash of Copper Armor, rows upon rows of heavy-armored spear and shield soldiers surged forward like a tidal wave, crushing everything in front.

At this time, the giant snake group had just suffered the attack from the thunderstorm Austin unleashed from the sky, heavily battered. Although the giant snake's lifeforce was extremely strong, more than half their life had been lost under the thunderstorm's strike, leaving them unable to mount any decent resistance.

The beastman legion charged forward like a black torrent, their sharp long spears penetrating the bodies of the giant snakes, with the charred skin, scales peeled by the lightning, unable to resist, the long spears making muffled sounds as they deeply pierced, blood splattering out.

One after another, the severely injured giant snakes were surrounded and killed by the beastmen, the beastman legion continuously advancing within the valley entrance, the ground filled with snake corpses.

Occasionally, some stronger snakes would roll their bodies, their massive tails crashing down with great force, but in the face of the well-equipped Dragon's Nest army, it had little effect, and instead, beastman officers seized the opportunity, a single thrust directly piercing seven inches, ending their lives completely.

Despite these beastman officers being strong in Fighting Qi, not yet meeting the requirements to learn the Beastman Six Techniques, Austin had researched much in the process of developing Gale Wave on Fighting Qi Sword.

Though the beastman officers could not unleash Gale Wave, by developing a semi-finished product from Gale Wave, they attached rotating Fighting Qi onto their weapons, forming combat techniques like electric saws, their power exceptionally strong.

With the beastman officers and junior officers holding the line, the surrounding snakes were quickly cleared, while other ambushers from all directions pressed in, moving in all directions.

As the saying goes, a thousand troops, a horizon-reaching number.

Under the Dragon Nest beastmen army's charge, it seemed that the mountains and plains were filled with the Dragon Nest beastmen army.

By this time, the giant snake group had completely fallen into certain death.

Seeing victory imminent, Austin did not become complacent; his figure soared in the sky, heavy clouds above rolling, lightning streaking through them, illuminating the deep clouds faintly as he carefully observed everything below.

Amid a group from the Demon Beast Race, unless a lone rider, there undoubtedly exists a leader similar to a commander.

Judging by the snake attack last night, there's a high chance a giant snake leader was secretly commanding.

Although Austin's thunderstorm was powerful and had instantly rendered the entire giant snake group nearly powerless to resist, due to the dispersal of thunderstorm power, there weren't many snakes dead on the spot, most merely severely injured by the thunder's strike.

He didn't presume that a thunderstorm unable to kill snakes on the spot could kill the giant snake leader.

Indeed, as the Dragon Nest Legion pressed closer into Snake Valley, suddenly a sharp hiss pierced through, resembling nails scraping on glass, shockingly piercing, causing the beastmen present to go weak in their limbs.

Szzz!

At the same time, a dense, foul-smelling gray mist spread below the valley, and as it touched the edge shrubs, they visibly withered at a naked eye's pace—a bush as tall as a person wilted rapidly, leaves falling...
