Game of the World Tree

▪️Enemy Attack

The Black Dragon is back?!

The high priest and Night Wanderer were both startled upon hearing the news

The vampire glanced at the Orc Priest as his brow furrowed in dismay. “Didn’t you say that the Black Dragon was already dead?”

Feeling the pressure emanating from the Blood Count and his scathing gaze, Jushan’s scalp tingled in alarm. “My Lord Count, the dragon…it never came back, and the warriors who went with it didn’t return either!”

He stuttered a bit after his explanation.

Night Wanderer then sighed, “Forget it. Let’s go out and see what’s going on.”

“Dragons have always covet treasures and messing with its possessions are a widely known taboo. Although it’s just a young Black Dragon, we still cannot be careless nonetheless.”

With that, he led the way out of the tribe’s main tent.

Seeing that Night Wanderer didn’t seem too nervous, Jushan also breathed a sigh of relief.

With a high-ranking Godwarden present and the summoning of the totem guardian imminent, a mere young Black Dragon in the Silver Rank should not pose too much of a threat to the tribe…

When they reached the outside, they could already hear Black Dragon’s angry roar from far away up high:

“Ruaaaaa~!”

“You despicable, shameless, evil, and cunning Orcs! Return this Lord’s treasure right now, or Meryer will surely eat you all!”

The dragon stood on the castle on the mountaintop, looking down at the Caverock tribe below akin to a monarch with Meryer’s voice spreading far and wide.

The intimidating dragon’s aura spread in all directions, and combined with its provocative threats, the Orcs inside the Caverock tribe became somewhat agitated.

Looking up at the Black Dragon from below, Night Wanderer smiled thinly and said, “Lord Black Dragon, your treasure has been temporarily requisitioned by our Patron God. I can swear on my soul that it will be returned to you threefold within one week.”

Three… three times!

In an instant, Meryer widened its eyes, and there was a hint of greed in its expression.

“A-Ahem…”

At this moment, Li’l Salty Cat that’s hidden behind Meryer’s back quickly coughed a few times and reminded, “Li’l Blackie, I heard that they are preparing to summon a demigod class guardian. If they succeed in doing so, then can you still escape? Think about the things you said to me before like your cause of justice, think about those comfortable massages, think about that honey-glazed roast meat…”

“The patron god of these orcs may not be as easy to talk to unlike our elven goddess…”

Justice? Massages? Roast meat?

Mayer’s eyes lit up, as it subconsciously swallowed.

But soon, the dragon reacted:

Demi…god Class!

In an instant, Mayer’s face turned stiff.

These damn bastards! They are deceiving it again!

“Meryer, delay the time and attract their attention again! Li Mu and I will build the magic array as soon as possible.”

Seeing the silly little black dragon being agitated, Li’l Salty Cat continued to speak to some reassurance to it.

As she spoke, Salty Cat rubbed her temples as it aches in frustration.

Originally, the players were planning for an ambush.

But who knew that this stubborn black dragon was too reckless and flew directly straight to the top of the mountain just below the tribe!

And after listening to her words, Meryer nodded and shouted loudly towards the bottom of the mountain:

“Ruaaaa! No! Meryer must get its treasure now! Otherwise, Meryer will destroy your tribe immediately!”

As soon as this statement came out, it immediately caused panic amongst the beastmen inside the stronghold.

Count Night frowned.

This is a critical period, and he cannot delay the timing of the summoning just because of this black dragon’s interference.

Immediately, he had to find a way to temporarily appease this obnoxious black dragon.

Although his strength was one level higher than the black dragon, the vampire is still not sure that he could kill the opponent rather easily.

Plus he didn’t want another troublesome enemy.

Therefore, Night Wanderer continued the persuasion:

“Sorry, Black Dragon, I won’t hide it from you. Your treasure has been used by us. But don’t worry, I can swear in the name of the Hunter God that I will give you a satisfactory answer within a week! Not only that, but if you can join our side as well, then I will reward you ten times instead!”

He then took a very low posture as if submitting onto it.

Generally speaking, the dragons are still wary of the gods, especially those on par with the likes of legendary dragons.

They will still maintain a certain level of respect despite facing the servants of Gods.

Night Wanderer also believes that his words can appease the Black Dragon, or perhaps even move it…

There is no dragon that is not tempted by ten times the treasure after all!

Meryer eyes did jump a bit.

However, the light coughing behind him came once again.

Speaking in a gentle voice, but with a hint of disdain and very ostentatiously Li’l Cat rebuked,

“Cough cough, isn’t it just mere treasures? How much do you want in the future Blackie, I can find a way to get as much as you want! I’m definitely more reliable than him!”

Meryer was moved.

The dragon gave Li’l Salty Cat an implicit look of “I trust you so don’t deceive me”, then looked down the mountain again before roaring at the Night Traveler with a snarling grin:

“No! No! This Lord Meryer wants it now! Triple it! No! Meryer wants ten times now! Otherwise, I will breathe my dragon’s breath to your puny base!”

Night Traveler:…

This Black Dragon is being so difficult, does it brain have a loose screw or something?

For a moment, The blood count felt the veins in his forehead throb in exasperation.

He had neither the confidence to kill the Black Dragon in one shot, nor the ability to immediately satisfy its demands, so the two of them were just arguing about a pretty redundant matter.

However, as communication progressed, Count Night gradually realized that this Black Dragon seemed to be concerned about something and was only mouthing off nonsense.

It even dared not fly down from the mountaintop.

But…what’s the point of that?

Other than wasting time, then what’s its actual aim?

The vampire felt like he had encountered a greedy Black Dragon with a rotting brain.

Wait a minute…

Delaying time?

Suddenly, a proverbial bright light flashed into Night Wanderer’s mind, and his face became deathly serious.

Almost at the same time, a strong spatial fluctuation suddenly came from the direction of the castle on the top of the mountain…

Spatial magic fluctuations?

Not good! It’s a teleportation spell!

The vampires expression changed in horror.

In an instant, his vicinity was filled with numerous creatures with each of them waving weapons towards him.

What the—Elves?

The blood count was stunned for a moment, then his expression turned grave!

Those are…the elves from the forest!

Did these elves actually subdued an evil and greedy black dragon?

How did they do it?!

If it was a kind-hearted Silver Dragons then it would be easy since he remembered those White Dragons were rather close to the world tree ages ago…

But this is the evil Black Dragon Race!

And it’s infamous for being the most stubborn and rebellious than the rest of the dragon races.

In an instant, the vampire stared in utter disbelief.

At the same time, the black dragon Meryer became more excited.

It let out a roar and then flapped its wings strongly, swooping down towards the mountain and unleashing a torrent of dragon breath!

Night Wanderer surveyed the situation with hardened gaze. He didn’t care about the black dragon anymore but shouted “Enemy attack!” while retreating back to the main camp.

The Orc high priest was also stunned by this sudden situation.

“Elves…are attacking?!”

Calling his expression shocked would be an understatement.

The idea of elves taking the initiative to attack was the biggest joke in Saigües.

Even though he knew that the elves in the forest were acting a bit strange lately, he never expected this day to come.

Taking the initiative to attack a target was simply impossible for these peace-loving and submissive long-eared tree hugging folks!

But soon, he reacted and roared in commanding tone:

“Enemy attack! Sound the alarm!”

With the sound of the horn, the entire Caverock tribe finally began to mobilize.

And on the mountaintop, watching the black dragon charge down recklessly , Li’l Salty Cat felt even more annoyed:

“You stupid idiot! Why are you charging as well!? Can you beat that high ranked person you were talking to!? “

“Our people still haven’t even gathered fully yet! Come back and protect the teleportation array first!”
