A Core Ship From The Start

Chapter 112: Chapter 95 The Tower of Ice_1

For ordinary people, a giant dragon is a very terrifying creature. They possess strong, enormous bodies, scary claws and wide-open mouths full of sharp teeth, showing no mercy to other creatures.

But for players, the mere mention of the word “dragon” sets their eyes glittering, breath quickening, and heart rate accelerating!

Why?

Because Dragon equals Riches equals Treasures in dragon’s lair equals Rare equipment!!

Whether on the human planet or in the starry sky, players can’t afford to miss anything related to dragons.

Now it’s the same case.

“Bang!!”

The giant dragon heavily fell on the ground. It raised its head and stared fearfully at the Black Knight who was stepping on its head.

“Monster… monster…”

The giant dragon, who was initially full of arrogance, now looked at Duanmu Huai fearfully. No wonder it reacted this way, as its companions had been completely annihilated.

The black dragon, who made arrogant remarks initially, had its body pierced by the heroic spirit summoned by an infuriated Ann. Another dragon, who didn’t even have time to utter the typical villainous line, “How dare you…” was blown away by Greiya’s leap and claw attack. The dragon scale-covered body, hard enough to withstand the sharp blade of a weapon, was deeply carved with bone-deep bloody marks.

As for the other dragons, they didn’t fare any better. One was sliced into steaks by Ogis’ casual finger action. Another, who thought Lorena would be an easy target, intended to attack her. He was slapped by Lorena which made his head turn 180 degrees. And then… well, there was no “and then”.

The entire battle from start to finish didn’t even last two minutes. If not for Duanmu Huai deciding to keep a live captive, this giant dragon would be left with only one path: death.

“Next, I ask, you answer, understand?”

Duanmu Huai took off his helmet, with one hand pressing his Chainsaw Sword against the giant dragon’s neck and coldly staring at it as he spoke. Seeing Duanmu Huai’s face, the giant dragon turned white with fear.

“No, don’t! Don’t come over! I’ll do anything! Please don’t!!”

Along with the wailing of the giant dragon, a putrid smell suddenly wafted in the air. Smelling this odor, both Ann and Greiya frowned, then looked down towards the dragon’s lower body…

“…Wow, it wet itself from fear.”

“Ann, it’s a dragon, it doesn’t need to wear pants.”

“Dragon is such a coward, just like Sir Knight said, they are as timid as a pinecone.”

“……The disgrace of the dragon race……”

Ignoring the whispering of the two princesses, Duanmu Huai acted as if he had heard nothing, focusing his gaze on the giant dragon in front of him.

“Answer my question.”

“Yes…Yes…”

“Are you under Fafner’s command?”

“Yes…We are members of the Evil Dragon Legion…”

“Was the attack on the town an order from the Evil Dragon Legion?”

“Actually, no, the Legion is currently on another mission, we are mainly in the rear and got bored…”

“What did you say…!!”

Upon hearing the dragon’s response, Ann’s face turned red with anger. She was about to summon the heroic spirit again to take down this giant dragon, but thankfully Greiya and Lorena stopped her in time.

“Undergoing tasks?”

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Huai raised his eyebrows.

“What mission are you guys on?!”

“This…”

At Duanmu Huai’s question, the giant dragon was momentarily left dumbstruck. Meanwhile, Duanmu Huai immediately, without hesitation, pushed the button.

“Buzz————!!”

The Chainsaw Sword began to spin frantically, causing the giant dragon, fearing for its life, to start begging for mercy.

“I… I’ll tell! Actually, I’m not quite sure, all I know is they’re here for a tower in the Icebound Valley! They say it seems there is an ancient Flame Devil Dragon sealed under that tower, and Lord Fafner seems to want to bring it under his command, so he sent the Evil Dragon Legion to break the seal!”

“What!?”

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked. Duanmu Huai, who was also surprised, turned his head doubtfully to look at Ann and Greiya.

“You didn’t know?”

“I’ve never heard of such a thing, and there’s no record of it in the library either…”

Ann’s head shook like a drum, she seemed genuinely shocked by the news.

“What about you, Greiya? Aren’t you a dragonkin? Have you heard of this?”

“I’ve never heard of such a thing either…”

Greiya also looked confused. Clearly, they both were unaware of this secret here.

“Regardless, we must prevent the resurrection of the sealed dragon!”

Duanmu Huai made an immediate decision. It was no joke. This was like a final boss from a game about to be revived and recruiting his four heavenly kings. What happens if it succeeds?

“Do you know where the tower is? Lead us quickly!”

“But I…”

“Buzz—————!!!”

“I’ll take you there, ah ah ah stop it no more stabbing in ah ah ah ah!!!”

Hearing the giant dragon’s scream, Ann quietly moved to Greiya’s side and whispered.

“Greiya, this giant dragon really is as cowardly as the knight said…”

Finally, threatened by Duanmu Huai, the severely injured giant dragon, flapping its wings but carrying everyone, set off for the high tower deep in the Icebound Mountains.

It was already late at night. The moonlight illuminated the entire Icebound Mountains. Sitting on the giant dragon, Duanmu Huai searched around and soon found their destination.

Not because Duanmu Huai had good eyesight but because… it was really noticeable.

Flames shot up into the sky, revealing a white ice tower standing in a huge pit deep in the mountains. The entire tower appeared to be made of ice. Bathed in the moonlight, dozens of shattered corpses of giant dragons were visible around the Ice Tower, fire still burning on the ground…

However, a large hole had been blasted underneath the ice tower and the other dragons had apparently entered the tower.

“We must also hurry…”

Before Duanmu Huai could finish his sentence, a cold gust suddenly blew from the direction of the ice tower, heading straight for them!

“Watch out!”

Duanmu Huai grabbed Ogis and Lorena in one arm and he himself leapt into the air while Ann and Greiya also quickly took flight. This was followed by seeing the cold gust of wind flash below them, instantly turning the unfortunate giant dragon into a popsicle. The dragon plummeted to the ground without uttering a word, shattering into several pieces of wreckage on impact.

“This place is indeed formidable.”

Seeing this, Duanmu Huai also tensed up and quickly descended to the ground with the others. Now he finally understood why there were so many dragon corpses littered around the ice tower.

It seemed that the defensive power of the ice tower was truly astonishing.

On the other hand, this implied that below the ice tower something truly formidable was sealed. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be this much powerful energy.

With this in mind, Duanmu Huai tightened his grip on the War Hammer, looking towards the large hole in the ice tower.

“Let’s go!”

Under Duanmu Huai’s lead, they rushed into the ice tower, but as soon as they entered, an intense cold wave hit them in the face.

“It’s so cold!”

“How can it be this cold?!”

The girls clearly did not expect it to be this cold and screamed out. Fortunately, someone was prepared.

“Here are some coats, Princess, Miss Lorena, Miss Ogis, please use them.”

You’re here.

Seeing Owen somewhat unexpectedly emerging from somewhere distributing coats, Duanmu Huai also paused.

This guy really lacked presence; he had almost forgotten the other’s existence.

Speaking of which, where did you keep all these clothes?

“Sir Knight? Would you like one…”

“I don’t need it. But I’d appreciate a cup of tea when this is over.”

Duanmu Huai declined Owen’s offer, then turned his gaze forward. The entire Ice Tower was a mess, filled with the bodies of giant dragons and dragon beasts. But luckily, they had paved a path. Now all Duanmu Huai had to do was follow the trail of these corpses and keep moving forward.

“Alright, let’s go. Hopefully, we won’t be too late.”
