The Dragon Attacks
The corpses left were now only broken bones—the cold wind brought an inexplicable whimpering sound.
In the distance, on the desolate land, more than a dozen colossal magic warships lay quietly on the ground like crawling demon shadows.
“Go! Clean them up one by one!”
These magic battleships were two to three times larger than the sky-patrolling battleships they had obtained in the Azure World. They were hundreds of feet tall and hundreds of meters long, and each was comparable to the aircraft carriers of their previous lives.
Li Xiang led his men to jump onto one of the battleships and began cleaning them up from top to bottom.
Without needing Li Xiang to do anything, Kayla cast a large purification spell and enveloped the entire battleship. All the evil demons and devils hidden in the darkness were instantly purified into nothingness.
Only a few powerful demons and monsters struggled to resist but were easily killed by Alice and her crew.
After cleaning up the crew of a battleship, Li Xiang summoned a Cross-Border teleportation array and teleported the battleship back to the Kingdom of Dawn.
Just this one battleship alone consumed more than three hundred fist-sized crystals.
Li Xiang owned crystal ore as he used crystals as an energy source. No other kings would do this.
The huge teleportation array enveloped the warship. Then, the warship turned into a shadow and disappeared with the teleportation array.
Then, Li Xiang continued to clean up the next warship.
On average, each warship only needed about an hour. Even if there were an accident, it would take at most two hours to solve.
Li Xiang was afraid that the Alliance of Gods would find an opportunity to take away these warships, so he did not rest. He spent an entire day sending all the warships back to the Kingdom of Dawn.
In the Sky Workshop, Li Xiang gathered all the master craftsmen and said, “Everyone, from now on, you only have one task. Research and understand this magic warship for me. At the very least, you must be able to produce it yourself. Can you do it?”
A human master craftsman asked, “Country Lord, can we dismantle these warships?”
Li Xiang pondered for a moment and said, “You can dismantle one as research, but I need to see your results before I can begin disassembling it. As long as there are good results, I have no objection to you dismantling all of these warships. But if the warships are dismantled, and there are no results, that would betray my trust!”
“Yes, we will do our best not to betray your trust!”
“Alright, actually, I don’t mean that harshly! Just do your best!”
Li Xiang did not think that these master craftsmen would be so clueless. They needed to dismantle more than ten magic warships to be able to understand it. By saying this, it was nothing more than giving them a little pressure. He would find a place to cry if they dismantled all the warships.
He knew the magic warship’s most important asset was its magic restriction. Although these master craftsmen were very powerful, it was unrealistic for them to understand it in a short time.
He had already sent all the Demon Mages and their commanders over to assist these craftsmen in their research on the magic warship.
After the arrangements were made, he teleported back to the palace. Only then did Li Xiang remember that he had not seen Yang Mi and the others for two days. He immediately asked Eye Demon, “What are Yang Mi and the others up to?”
“Reporting to the King! The madams are cultivating privately. They are leading their heroes and armies to clear out the wild monsters in the territory.”
“Oh? They are so diligent?”
Li Xiang was slightly surprised, but he didn’t say anything more.
Yang Mi and the others were naturally outstanding among the newly descended kings, but compared to the other experts in this world, they were lacking.
However, a few of them didn’t have any battle talent. They were proactive this time because a few had already used their five halo skill stones. They were merely testing their skills, not honing their strengths to level up.
“Eye Demon, how’s the investigation of the country’s border coming along?”
“Country Lord, we have already investigated the area within a radius of a thousand miles. A total of six countries have been discovered. There are no human countries. Among them are three countries of the Beast Clan, the Wolf Clan, the Ox Clan, the Pegasus Clan, the Night Demon Country Clan, the Underworld Clan, and the Eternal Clan. There are many humans in each of these six countries.”
Li Xiang nodded. He marked the locations of the six countries on the map according to Eye Demon’s words.
These countries would be the enemies of the Kingdom of Dawn in the future, and they had to be conquered or even destroyed.
While thinking, Li Xiang suddenly felt something strange and raised his head.
In the void, a huge figure appeared in the sky, spewing fire to attack the protective shield of the Kingdom of Dawn.
The intense flames almost covered the entire protective barrier.
Although the protective barrier covered the entire Kingdom of Dawn and wasn’t daunted by such an attack, the high temperature brought about by the intense flames had a massive impact on the Kingdom of Dawn.
When he raised his head, the sky was fiery red.
The temperature within the Kingdom of Dawn’s territory was rapidly rising.
The heroes under Li Xiang, including Yang Mi and the others, also returned quickly.
“Country Lord, what happened?”
Li Xiang squinted his eyes and looked at the sky.
Behind the flames, the silhouette of the huge figure could be clearly seen.
It was a huge red dragon, at least three to four hundred meters tall. It was not considered big compared to the entire Kingdom of Dawn, but more massive than hundreds of red dragons combined.
Li Xiang did not know what was going on. Had he poked a Dragon’s Nest?
The roars of the dragons echoed in the sky, constantly spitting fire and roasting the protective shield.
If the system only provided a protective shield, these dragons might cause much trouble for the Kingdom of Dawn.
After all, in just a few minutes, the temperature around them had risen by several degrees.
If this continued for a period of time, it might not matter to extraordinary humans like Li Xiang, but it would be more difficult for ordinary humans to endure.
Moreover, the rapid water evaporation on the ground would also lead to abnormal weather conditions, which would lead to more terrible weather and even natural disasters.
He had not expected that the system’s protection would have such a loophole.
But what made him even more puzzled was the goals of these giant dragons.
Although Ya Fei was a dark giant dragon of the same race as the giant dragons in the sky, she came from another world and had no relationship with these red dragons at all.
“Country Lord, do you want me to question these giant dragons about their purpose?”
Ye Xi asked for instructions.
“Not for the time being. I’d like to see how long they can last. Even if the giant dragons can use their breath to raise the country’s temperature, their breath is not endless.”
Ya Fei had the most right to speak about this, she said bluntly, “A small half of the giant dragons that landed are of divide grade, and their levels are around two hundred. If they use their dragon breath, they can last for at least three hours and raise the temperature in the country by ten to fifteen degrees.”
