Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 1128 -174: Overwhelming Victory and the Comical Red Dragon Drake

Su Li’s decision was issued, and the entire territory began to move swiftly and vigorously.

Drake, being a simple-minded red dragon, was still easy to target; just by gathering a small amount of high-level power for a decapitation strike.

Therefore, the Hesse Territory quickly mobilized a large number of Chosen Warriors. Apart from Oerstein continuing as Marshal to hold the fort in the Hesse Territory, all other Secular Knights and Church Knights were dispatched.

Including the Deputy Leader of the Eternal Light Knight Order, Bradley; the War Saintess, High-level Attendant Chief, Hilude; the Fiery Sun Goddess Chosen, Tiberus and Rong’en; Mole’s Chosen One, Demster; Shalya’s Chosen, Dietrich; and the Dwarf Chosen, Sogard.

And certainly, the most excited participant in this battle—the Green Dragon, Aeliria.

Eight Chosen Warriors in total, along with nearly a hundred Champion Knights, mounted on a multitude of Griffins, Half Griffins, Horse Vultures, and Flying Horses, quickly arrived at the Dusk Mountain Range.

Su Li rode his mount, Death’s Claw, wielding a warhammer, high up in the air, surrounded by numerous Iron Armors and powerful knights, with banners fluttering behind him, armored warriors standing tall, and gazed downward at the warhammer below.

Deep within the Dusk Mountain Range, the severe cold of midwinter was mostly dispelled by the heat surging from underground, yet the piercing cold wind still howled through the towering peaks. A massive lava lake lay like an unhealed burn on the earth, the crimson magma slowly surging, exuding a suffocating sulfurous stench and rolling heat waves. At the center of the lake, on an island made of solidified black magma and gigantic obsidian, lay the ruler of this region—the High Tier Divine Chosen Level Red Dragon, Drake.

His massive body was covered with thick crimson scale armor, reflecting a metallic dull sheen in the magma’s glow. A stout neck supported a menacing head, nostrils puffing dense smoke with sparks as he breathed. At this moment, his huge body was gently undulating, reclined on piled metal ingots and rough minerals, seemingly napping. At the island’s edge, in the rock crevices untouched by the heat, remnants of unmelted snow lingered.

Suddenly, a high-pitched, powerful dragon roar tore through the heavy air above the lava lake! Aeliria’s green dragon true form swooped down from the lead-gray clouds suffused with sulfuric steam, her emerald scales strikingly vivid against the crimson backdrop. Instead of directly attacking, she circled rapidly in the air above the lava lake, emitting continuous, sharp provoking screeches, her forest-like chilling dragon mighty fiercely pressing against Drake. ℴ

Considering the hostility and disdain between green dragons and red dragons, Su Li did not ride on the green dragon’s back for this battle, to avoid her pride and dignity being insulted and mocked by the red dragon.

Yet even so, the red dragon was the first to roar at the green dragon: “Roar—! Aeliria! You traitor! Toy of the crawlers! How dare you set foot in my territory!”

Within the Dusk Mountain Range, Drake’s giant head suddenly lifted high, his golden vertical pupils instantaneously locking onto the green shadow in the sky, roaring furiously and unleashing a wave of scorching air that caused the cave ceiling to quake and debris to rain down.

His massive body then rose dramatically, wing membranes expanded, shrouding much of the light from the lava lake. He felt extremely offended; a green dragon dared to bring a group of humans and dwarves to invade his magmatic throne!

Lies don’t hurt, it’s the truth that cuts sharply.

In reality, Aeliria’s current identity was indeed as Su Li’s plaything; last night, Su Li had fiercely conquered her many times, riding her and exerting his authority, leaving her no choice but to beg for mercy, stripped of any dragon majesty, becoming a plaything dominated by a crawler.

Aeliria, although enjoying her current life, could not tolerate being taunted by a red dragon, her anger erupted, golden pupils flashing icy cold: “Drake, you muscle-brained fool! Dare to provoke us, we’ve come to collect you!”

“Then come down! You lowly, venomous, cunning disgrace of the dragon race.” Drake flapped a wing, stirring up a cloud of flying sand and rolling stones, roaring: “Come down and fight me, let’s see who collects whom! I’ll tear you to pieces. You green dragons are the shame of the dragon race!”

Before Aeliria could respond, Su Li patted Death’s Claw’s back, and the griffin instantly soared, sketching a perfect curve in the sky, landing beside Aeliria. Hilude raised the mighty banner of Hesse Territory, appearing behind him, followed by numerous knights piercing through the dense clouds, arrayed under the banner.

In an instant, the strong military formation in the sky was lined with iron armors, the formation imposing, banners and armors gleaming brilliantly.

Under the powerful banner effect, this entourage not only appeared majestic but towering in physique, terrifyingly imposing, filled with an overwhelming sense of oppression.

Su Li gazed calmly at Drake below, speaking smoothly: “Drake, you’ve repeatedly sent minions to harass the human settlements below the Dusk Mountain Range, causing extensive slaughter, and now my mighty army bears righteous force, rampaging interlopers will surely be slain.”

“I give you two choices: one, resist stubbornly, and today will be your day of execution! We’ll strip you, flay you, and take all treasures from your Dragon’s Nest.”

“Two, bow in submission, offering half of your Dragon’s Nest treasures. We’ll spare your life, even allow you to stay in the Dusk Mountain Range. Naturally, you must dissolve all minions, remain holed up in your Dragon’s Nest, and be responsible for clearing out all monsters within the Dusk Mountain Range. Any monster descending causing plunder and harm, you will compensate with treasures from the Dragon’s Nest.”
