Chapter 152 - The King Of Dragons
"My father will make sure that all of you will get hanged after being tortured in the worst possible way. You have seen me like this, so all of you will definitely die.", the girl shouted, her throat horse as the time went by.
However, the soldiers around her were by no means deterred by her threats. For one, they were not completely sure who her father was, but they knew it wasn't the king, or she wouldn't be in this situation. And next, she was by no means ugly. She was stunningly beautiful, and even if she was just a teenager, she was completely developed, and all around her, soldiers were looking at her like a wolf was looking at a lamb.
The girl cried out with embarrassment. Her troupe of a few girls were dressed up and looking at this situation with complex expressions. They knew how big this incident was going to blow up, but they were also aware of the fact that the two people responsible for this were capable of flight!
The girl who was forced to give her towel to the girl who was being punished had her fists clenched. She muttered in her breath, "Serves her right! She always picked on me because I was just the daughter of a Baron. Now, look at what she is reduced to.. Her father will definitely throw her away because she is worthless now."
Meanwhile, near the King's quarters which were moved to the city lord mansion.
"Welcome, respected sir. I was told that you were supposed to come two weeks later, I certainly did not expect that you would be here so fast. I understand that you have faced a small inconvenience with your arrival. I will make sure that that is taken care of immediately.", Liu Man's voice could be heard.
"It has been a very exhausting journey. For the first time in a very, very long time, we have left the western realm of Dicain and into the central continent. I certainly would not believe that I would be so close to the magical forest. I was surprised that the contractor is still alive after Bai Du discovered him.", the hoarse voice that the man had spoke in with the Oscar and the rest was completely gone. His voice was majestic now, and it spread out through the room.
"Yes Sir, My son will be arriving shortly and he will discuss the appropriate details of your stay. For now, do you wish to look at our plans for the war? I was told that I should tell you the plans we have to face the demons."
"Have you ever faced them? Because if you did, I doubt that you will be confident about this war. The demons are much more powerful than you realize and they have not been idling away inside their territory. When in a strong area of demonic and corrupted mana, the demons thrive and ascend ranks like no other genius can. So far, all I have seen is a stubborn system that is predominant among you humans that will only serve to hinder the fight. How many people do you have that can fight with the demon soldiers?"
"All of them. Liu Feng has outfitted them with this contraption that was devised by the master of the mage tower that allows any mortal to just push a button and instantly vaporise a demon of a high rank even. It is truly marvelous, and it seems that this is a novel idea that was not even used in the original demon war. Please, allow me to demonstrate."
As he said this, Liu Man took out a gun from one of the drawers of his desk. They were in the study of the mansion, and they faced the window. Liu Man opened the window and pointed the gun towards the sky. The sky was still bright with the day in its prime, but when Liu Man pressed the trigger, a blast of mana flew up. It was very visible even in the bright sky, and the green flare was quite visible in the blue, cloudless sky. As the dragon king looked up, he laughed.
"This is indeed very interesting. It is almost as if it does not belong to our world. I must certainly meet this master of the mage tower. He has created a game changing device. But you must not place too much hope on this one, what do you call this toy?"
"It is a gun, Sir. And you called it a toy? This is a very capable device. I have personally seen it in action against very powerful demons and it has killed them with ease."
"Once again, you underestimate the powers of the demon race. Do you think that this one device will change the tides? When the first demon war occured, we had countless armies gathered, and hundreds of thousands of people in the fourth and even the fifth order. All I see outside are a bunch of first orders and a few second orders. That Feng Luang can hold off a demon general and the dragons can hold off the demon captains and a general, but at the end of the day there will still be numerous fifth order demon captains that will destroy your army. This gun of yours can make these small fries a fourth order mage at best. But the gun cannot give the user the reflexes, the control of mana, and the sheer battle experience that the demon captains and the higher level demon soldiers have. After a point, the army will fall."
"Please advise us then, King of Dragons. We do need help. In fact, Liu Feng had even requested the king of the magical forest for help, but he had refused, saying that we could defeat the demons on our own."
