Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 1008 – The Necromancers

The moment the necromancers appeared, things started to change on the two battlefields.

It was the right decision after all. Bringing forth those white skeletons helped in dominating the scene. Through all this time, the three necromancers made great contributions and created even high quality skeletons.

Using the black curtain, their powers got augmented and increased on a rate visible to naked eye. Instead of just summoning basic skeletons with nothing of power and gears, they started summoning higher grade skeletons.

That cut the path of their skeletons' evolution by a lot. Also that helped at increasing the rate of transforming their skeletons to higher grades.

Yet there was no visible dragon out there. The highest grades available were cavalry skeletons and the newly formed magicians.

The skeleton magicians were really scary. Just imitating their three masters, they could summon skeletons. Of course the number and quality of these skeletons summoned by them paled in comparison to the three masters, but with their increasing numbers that helped in making a difference.

The moment the skeletons appeared, it looked like a gigantic white wave enveloped the entire world. Gege first summoned them to the islands they were attacking.

But later on she left many portals at the ground, just near the second battlefield and behind the arc made up by the mechas.

That helped a lot in aiding the forces fighting. Even if the main bulk of that endless army was made up from weak skeletons, they acted perfectly as cannon fodders.

Just the simple fact of losing them without any issues of regret provided itself to replace any other forces attacking the flying islands.

Even if the islands got detonated, things wouldn't come to such a bad state of losing valuable and hard to train forces.

Losing tens of thousands of skeletons? Then in the next hour much more would be summoned again. That made the three beings in Arthur's mind quite elated by such development.

As expected, they all directed the attention and effort of everyone else to go and hit the incoming and annoying ground and flying forces of the dark mages.

No matter how the enemy was sent, they failed to create another mess in this fight. The battle looked to continue for a long time, but now the losses were minimal and mainly composed of the skeletons.

Only a few strong mages were left behind to coordinate with the skeletons and made sure to get hold of the flying islands. Despite the presence of detonating islands, the losses became nil in the ranks of the mages.

Gege worked her best to save anyone trapped inside any detonating island. Paying attention to a couple hundred images was much easier than tens of thousands of them.

And with the help of skeletons, with their berserk way of fighting regardless of anything else, the rate of detonating islands became slower and grew scarcer with time.

As for Arthur, as the battlefield raged wildly around him he kept himself busy in absorbing the energy from this rare opportunity.

That pillar was mysterious in ways that shocked even Arthur. He thought the pillar's energy had a limit. But after weeks of absorbing it, he couldn't help but be inwardly shaking.

It seemed like that pillar was directly connected towards another realm, the realm of the advancement of his dragonair class.

He wasn't the only one thinking like that. During the past weeks, the battle was won and things finally stabilized here. But the three beings in his mind noticed that Arthur didn't show any signs of stopping.

The energy coming from that pillar looked endless. In their eyes they began to suspect the same thing as Arthur, which was something good actually.

If Arthur made full use of this chance, he would rise higher, way faster than anyone imagined. However during the past weeks, the other dragons seemed to hit a wall they couldn't pass.

One by one they stopped their absorption and opened their eyes. Their outer physique changed slightly and grew to become all like a similar version of the same species.

Lengths extending for hundreds of meters, scales so thick and shiny, brimming with bright light. Their strength seemed unfathomable, and the increase they gained in their strength and abilities looked more complicated and much advanced than just having their speed, defense, and strength augmented.

In the eyes of everyone, even those coming from the higher realms, even those gaining the augmentation of the black curtains like Amera and Doaf, these grand dragons might have reached a height no precedent before.

'What shall we do now?'

Gege asked after the end of this war and attaining their victory. According to her observation and own estimate, Arthur seemed to continue his own experience for a much longer time.

'Ding! We shall send them over the planet. This battle must have exhausted the main forces of the enemy!' the system expressed his own thoughts.

'But building cities will take slower pace than their advancement,' the golden dragon said in warning, 'plus Gege's portals won't be able to help.'

'Ding! I believe Arthur was slightly overprotective. His forces grew dependable on him recently. This last battle showed that flaw and we need to take advantage of this current special circumstances and send them out.'

'So we are going to send them blindly like that?' Gege was still reluctant. She used to grow fond of Arthur's way of doing things.

“We have to,'' the golden dragon seemed to agree on what the system said, “in fact Arthur planned to send them off to invade more planets without his help. Let them get a taste of this and also… You'll be helping from the side using the tree of mirror ability.'

'It's just a limited ability,' Gege expressed her doubts, 'it can't cover up the entire planet.'

'Ding! That's their problem, and they have to handle it.'

'Won't he be mad at us when he wakes up?' This was what troubled Gege the most. She knew that Arthur's mind wasn't normal, and he might get angry at their planning here.

'Ding! I don't think he will,' the system said before adding, 'Ding! And even if he is, I'll take the responsibility and explain everything to him.'

'I'll also stand by your side my friend,' the golden dragon expressed his utmost support to the system.

'Sigh, alright, I'll send everyone out.'
