Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

1870  A Racing Battle Royale!

-----

As the race began and all ten participants immediately rushed forward, leaving behind colorful ripples in space, Drake saw the quest notification again, this time making sure to put attention to the words in the requirements.

[Quest Duration: 6 Hours.]

First thing, he had to reach the goal, of course.

Second, the quest wasn't asking him to win, he could come at last place for all he wanted!

So, therefore, no pressure.

However, he still kind of wanted to get the first place anyways.

Third, there were some weird requirements for more points, such as falling into three traps, which would be detrimental to him most of the time.

Well, most of the time…

Another was to make the crowd call his name five times, or the name of any of his team members.

Maybe the Bullet Demon will be easier to make the people root for, as he was a nobody to them.

And then, to take down the three special pilots.

The previous race winner, Spike John, someone called "Ice Queen" and then the third, "Lightning Mac".

They all sounded quite interesting, and he immediately could tell who they were based on their ships.

The Ice Queen brought a huge spaceship covered on azure colored metal and crystals resembling ice, and it emanated a cold aura.

It was as if its entire engine worked on frost for some reason, which made little sense…

Then there was Lightning Mac's ship, it was red with golden lightning decorations, and a big "Lightning Mac" logo on it.

"Hey Carl, do you know who the Ice Queen and Lightning Mac are?" asked Drake.

"Ice Queen and Lightning Mac? Hm, I do know a bit about them," the Bullet Demon said when Drake asked him about them. "They're both famous racers, and outlaws. Criminals pretty much that also participate in various races. They had won several of them. the Ice Queen… I think she belongs to a race of aliens that live in a frozen moon, their technology is strange, working by using liquid nitrogen and cold, its incredibly powerful though, she kills by freezing anything else. Lightning Mac is just… very fast, can shoot lightning cannons from his ship, that's all I know."

"I see, thank you," Drake nodded, looking at the front and then around. "Everyone, keep a close eye at the other participants, at any moment they'll start attacking each other."

FLASH!

The ship passed through an empty alley as it evaded a huge cactus, and suddenly, in that moment, several ships appeared behind them.

"Papa, there's some ships behind us!" Kate said, as she was also controlling and keeping the ship together while fusing it with Gabriel, her senses expanded through the entire flying vehicle. "Three of them!"

"Three already?!" Miranda complained.

"That was fast!" Benladann said.

As the ships moved around the desert, evading obstacles and more, the ships drew closer constantly, as the pilots inside could be seen through the windows.

It wasn't any of the subjects of the quest though, but three completely different people.

A yellow ship in the shape of a moon, a blue and white ship shaped like a typical starship from some star wars movie, for a single pilot, and then a black spaceship with a spherical shap and a single red eye in the middle.

They buzzed while moving above the ground, getting closer and closer… And they weren't fighting each other either.

"I can already assume they've formed some sort of temporary alliance, then?" Drake wondered. "Bullet Demon, accelerate the ship! Miranda, Benladann, the moment they do something, take care of them."

"Roger that!" Benladann nodded, cracking her knuckles.

"Nice! Time to stretch the legs!" Miranda giggled, her aura growing stronger.

The three starships drew closer, and closer, and closer…

Until eventually!

The yellow ship began buzzing, as lightning shocks emerged from it.

The blue and white ship suddenly took out two large machineguns from below its body.

And the black spherical ship's crimson eye started charging energy.

"They're going for a triple attack!" Kate panicked.

"Deploy the shields!" said Drake.

"Okay! Benladra, help me out!" said Kate.

"Sure!"

Benladra touched the white sphere above the altar in the middle of the spaceship's interior, infusing her energies into it.

"Deploying Force Field Shields!" roared Kate. "Gabriel! Give it your best too!"

FLUOSH!

Golden shields of energy and light emerged, covering the entire spaceship with a golden angelic armor.

Yes, an angelic armor of light!

And to add to the grand appearance, a cosmic veil spread around it, boosting its defenses even further.

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

Three attacks hit the spaceship at once, shaking it a lot.

However, the shields were unscathed!

The pilots of these starships gasped in disbelief; the shield didn't even gain a single crack!

And they screamed even more when they saw a giantess encompassed in darkness swinging a massive axe against them.

CRAAASH!
