Chapter 632: Chapter 457: Setting Off for Storm Cape, the Flowing Wind Giant Dragon’s Wrath
The mountains and rivers below steadily receded from view.
The Cloud Sea Giant Whale’s flight was unbelievably smooth.
Its massive body didn’t seem to be flying, but rather gliding across an invisible ocean.
Aside from the wind whistling past their ears, there was almost no turbulence.
Raylo stood at the very front of the whale’s back, his cloak snapping in the wind.
The three little ones behind him had tired themselves out from playing. Moonlight and Lightning were curled up asleep at his feet, leaving only Sun to remain vigilant, its eyes occasionally scanning the clouds below.
The three Giants—Kado, Gordo, and Ug—sat motionless as three statues in the center of the whale’s back.
Grand Elder Gu sat cross-legged on the edge of the whale’s back, his eyes closed, as if he had entered a deep meditative state.
They traveled in silence.
As the sun sank in the west and night draped the land like enormous, ink-black velvet, a damp, salty sea breeze blew against their faces.
"WHOOOOO!"
The Cloud Sea Giant Whale let out a long, drawn-out cry, its flight speed gradually slowing.
Raylo gazed ahead.
At the limit of his vision, a jagged coastline lay shrouded in the night.
Countless black reefs, like the fangs of a Giant Beast, jutted out from the churning waves.
Storm Cape. They had arrived.
This was the easternmost point of the Continent, perennially shrouded in violent hurricanes and Thunderstorms—hence its name.
Under Raylo’s guidance, the Cloud Sea Giant Whale slowly descended onto the highest mountain peak.
The mountain peak was like a sharp sword piercing the sky, its summit a vast platform that had been flattened by the wind.
The moment they landed, a violent gust of wind blasted them, nearly knocking them off their feet.
"Yipe!"
Lightning was sent tumbling by the wind. It let out an indignant yelp and, transforming into a streak of electricity, zipped back into Raylo’s arms.
Just then, a vast and ancient will descended upon the mountain peak.
"Human, you have come."
A voice echoed directly in Raylo’s mind.
Raylo looked up.
On the summit, a colossal figure emerged from the storm ahead.
It was a Giant Dragon.
Its body was a strange turquoise color, as if condensed from the purest Wind Element.
Beneath its scales, countless tiny vortexes could be seen swirling.
The Flowing Wind Giant Dragon.
The true master of Storm Cape.
"Lord Flowing Wind."
Raylo replied in kind, using his Spiritual Power.
"I’ve received word that the Light Holy See is capturing lone Giant Dragons to conduct some sort of cruel experiment."
"Storm Cape is their exact target. This time, they’ve sent two Catastrophe Level powerhouses: one Tier Six Holy Knight, and one... Six-winged Angel of Death."
Raylo clearly felt the Flowing Wind Giant Dragon’s emotions erupt into a towering rage.
"The Light Holy See!"
A furious will exploded in Raylo’s mind like a hurricane.
"The minions of that Pseudo-Deity again! How dare they set foot on this land!"
A terrifying Dragon Mighty erupted from the Flowing Wind Giant Dragon as its epicenter.
Clearly, this was not the Flowing Wind Giant Dragon’s first encounter with the Light Holy See. Judging by its reaction, it had likely even suffered at their hands before.
In an instant, the gales across the summit grew even more violent. Countless bits of rubble were swept into the air, letting out piercing shrieks.
The clouds above churned as tempests tore through them, accompanied by the dull rumble of thunder.
Raylo braced himself against the Dragon Mighty, struggling to maintain the Spiritual Link.
"Calm down! Anger won’t solve anything! We need to conserve our Power and wait for them to arrive!"
The Flowing Wind Giant Dragon’s massive chest heaved. After a long moment, the furious Dragon Mighty slowly subsided.
"You’re right, human."
Its voice still carried an irrepressible fury.
"I will make them pay for their arrogance in blood!"
