Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Within minutes, Agnus appeared from portals alongside an army of strong looking men.

"My lord," Agnus led the others to bow to Arthur whose appearance was now engraved in everyone's mind.

After all it wasn't that hard to forget a dragon, a blue scaled dragon like him.

"This ore…" Arthur pointed down at the ground, "I want it all out."

"Right away, my lord."

Agnus started to lead others to mine the ore. He took out many gears and tools he created a long time ago.

"Cling!"

"Clang!"

"Cling!"

"Clang!"

The sound of iron meeting the ore and the ground appeared all over the place. Arthur stood midair with nothing to do but to watch them.

And in no time, Amera and the crow came from far towards here.

They must have been alerted by the sudden sounds inside the settlement. The moment they arrived here, they all got perplexed by what they saw.

"What's… going on here?" Amera asked while the crow descended to check that ore.

"It's… something I never saw before," the crow said before returning high in the air, "what is it?"

"It's the thing that kept us alive so far," Arthur only said that before he returned to his silence.

"Is it related to that mysterious object?" Amera directly asked and Arthur figured out that they knew everything.

It wasn't a surprise. That object must have been tested more than once already. Those people living here must have noticed its existence and told everything they knew to these two.

"It's the only weapon we have to stop it," Arthur said, "it's the only thing that stopped that outburst of fire."

"What fire?" the crow asked and Arthur didn't answer.

He knew he couldn't explain what these two didn't see. It wasn't like he didn't want to tell them, but he didn't know what to say.

"What about Doaf and Jud?" Amera suddenly asked after a long period of silence.

During this period, the workers kept mining the ore and even managed to break it down to many pieces.

As Arthur thought, this ore wasn't brought here. It was already on the ground. As the workers excavated the ore from the surface, they discovered thick running veins underneath the settlement.

These veins ran in different directions, extending even beyond the settlement here. However it was here that this ore took the circular shape below the walls.

"Was it just coincidence?" Arthur couldn't help but sigh before turning to Amera and replied, "I've told them already to stay out of the settlements."

"What if enemies appeared there?" the crow asked and Arthur couldn't help but feel how naive he was.

That grandmaster wouldn't make a useless and pointless move at all. It was already given that Arthur knew what was going on inside these settlements.

So sending any mages to here would be fruitless. Besides he already stressed over those two to not fall to any provocation and not step inside the settlement.

Or else they would definitely die!

"Do you know the origin of this?" The crow was more interested in the ore itself rather than the object. He took some of the pieces excavated by those workers and kept playing with them.

He tried to infuse his energy inside, but nothing happened. He tried to hit it with his feathered wings and it cracked open.

"Strange, it seems so fragile against physical strength… however against energy it's like a behemoth," he muttered while Arthur didn't say a single word.

In fact inside his garden he left the mission of testing these ores to Gege and the other two. In fact they tried everything, even made the octopus monster eat a single piece of it.

The monster grew stronger, which was an indicator for it to contain its own energy. However Arthur and others couldn't identify this energy.

Even Arthur with his own special eyes couldn't find any clue. It seemed like a dead and useless piece of rock in his eyes.

However when Gege used it to trap some prisoners, they suppressed any energy inside. If used in an array like what Gege did, the ore could suppress anything, even if it was a grandmaster.

Arthur began to have some fears from this ore. It could be used to not only trap his army, but also to make them weak and powerless.

No matter the origin, anyone trapped inside them would end up being vulnerable to die.

Plus there was another thing they discovered.

When the golden dragon saw it contained its form of energy, he suggested using them in offensive arrays.

And a shocking thing happened. The offensive array turned to become a mighty weapon that unleashed hell itself.

It created a wave of energy, a purple wave of fire that Arthur could only see. It swept away a large area of land and left behind a dead zone.

If not for the small piece used here, Arthur feared it would have killed everything in the garden.

"It's a useless piece of sh*t," the crow finally got tired of playing with it and threw the pieces he had in hand towards the ground.

And Arthur's heart leapt at this moment out of fear.

'Gege…' he couldn't risk any of these ores to explode. Gege moved a few portals and took the ores away before they hit the ground.

"Phew," Arthur unintentionally sighed in relief while the crow looked in a weird way towards him like he was crazy.

"I'll go and check over the people we saved," the crow said before adding, "I might take any talent worthy of support."

"Take me with you," Amera was bored and decided to play this game with the crow.

As for Arthur, he only gave them his back and kept testing on the ores inside his garden.

The more he tested, the more frightened he became. These ores didn't respond to anything but pure energy. They suck in any amount of energy thrown towards their faces.

However in return to that, this made them quite deadly if the energy stored inside got released for some reason.

The main way to do so was through arrays. Defensive arrays stood firm against any attacks no matter what. As for the offensive arrays, Arthur didn't risk trying anything after what happened the first time.

After he reached these results, he found out that the work here was taking much longer than he expected.

"Agnus," Arthur found Agnus before he went directly to him.

"My lord," Agnus bowed in respect while many workers paused from what they were doing.

"You will come with me towards other places," Arthur said, "select those who will lead the workers here."

"A… Alright."

Agnus seemed to be startled by Arthur's words, however he didn't object to them.

As for Arthur, he flew high in the air before saying: "Tell these two to select a few of their capable mages to be stationed here for protection."

'Are you planning to go around and collect all the ores?' the golden dragon asked, 'but the ore runs in deep and giant veins. I doubt they will stop mining these in a month!'

'Ding! It's better to add these areas to the empire,' the system said and Arthur couldn't help but like what he heard.

"Great idea," Arthur nodded, "but we first need to secure these settlements. As for the people here, they will work fine as the base for the cities we will build."

Arthur agreed on the system suggestion, however he didn't ditch his plans. In return he took out a few bird wings and wrote his instructions to Amelia, Deem, and Gor.

He wanted them to send good architects here to build many cities. The resistance around this area was gone. Plus the three girls were already expanding the borders of the empire as well.

Arthur wanted to assign a task to look for ores like these, but he refrained. This issue must be kept secretive. Plus even if he tried to describe the ores, they wouldn't get it until seeing it with their own eyes.

Deem and Gor were very busy at the moment. Amelia was still suspicious of Arthur. So Agnus was left as the best candidate to lead such a big and important operation.

As for now, Arthur headed directly towards the biggest building in the settlement, planning to take that object with him.

He had some doubts about the safety of going there, so he didn't move before he stacked a lot of ores inside his garden. If things went wrong he would summon a mountain of the ore and hide within.

However as he went to the underground level of that big building, he found a surprise waiting for him.

"Oh… That's new…" Arthur paused for a long minute while trying to understand what he was seeing at the moment.

In front of him the object wasn't covered by anything. The black curtain from before was gone. Next to it the ground had a dead body of a giant person.

Someone came from the higher realm to here. As for the object itself, it was shocking news to know its nature.

It wasn't solid, it was a dark purple and constantly moving liquid hanging midair in front of Arthur's eyes.
