After Maxing out all Classes

Chapter 843: We Can't Let It Cause Havoc in the World Again

The queen was startled by the scene revealed in the crystal ball and was momentarily speechless.

The trembling scout on the other side spoke with a sobbing voice, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... The Black Dragon is brutally attacking the Sphinx behind me. What should I do now? I... I am a loyal and brave scout, willing to give everything for Gran. I have the courage to face death, but... it would be unjust to die under the claws of the Black Dragon. I request permission to retreat, to retreat..."

The queen's gaze quickly cleared up, "Retreat quickly, don't make a fearless sacrifice."

The scout breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly grabbed the crystal ball, running for his life.

While running, he held the crystal ball high, trying to keep the image stable and prevent it from shaking.

The queen saw an apocalyptic scene behind himearth shaking, flames raging, numerous desert warriors running amok. Some were charging towards the Black Dragon, while others were fleeing into the distance.

A group of shamans and witch doctors in the distance were casting various types of magic at the Black Dragon, but it proved to be futile.

Fireballs occasionally flew towards the screen from behind or from the side, followed by a loud explosion, and charred bodies would fly past the lens, their cries filled with despair.

Houses in the distance kept collapsing, and the Sphinx was beaten to the point where it couldn't even stand up.

With a sweep of its wings, a violent gust of wind raged, causing people around to fly about like kites with broken strings.

The queen couldn't help but sigh inwardly, [So this is the terrifying Black Dragon when it's not preoccupied with that man. Last time it attacked Westwind City, all its attention was focused on him, and many spells were interrupted by him. Otherwise... Westwind City at that time would have ended up like the Oasis City now.]

The queen took a deep breath and then placed the communication crystal ball that connected to the scout in front of the specialized communication crystal ball for Robb, "Ghostly Man, take a look at this."

Robb took a closer look and couldn't help but pause for a moment.

Suofa, who was standing behind him, exclaimed, "Hey? Hey? Hey? This... this is the Oasis City! The capital of the Desert Kingdom. The Black Dragon is there?"

It was year 1352 in the Fengmo calendar, and they had already been through 338 years of the Black Dragon's flight. The Desert Kingdom had never been attacked by the Black Dragon before. No one expected that the Black Dragon would go there this time, which was a huge surprise to everyone.

After focusing on the crystal ball for less than five seconds, Suofa's face turned pale. It was too dreadful. The shocking scene of the rampaging Black Dragon was like doomsday. Her fellow countrymen, with the same skin color and ethnicity as her, were being tragically killed under the Black Dragon's attack.

She felt her breath becoming heavy, and her whole body trembled uncontrollably.

Robb shoved a transmission scroll into her hand, saying, "Open the portal! I'll go deal with the Black Dragon."

Suofa shook her head sadly, "I can't open it... I... I've never been to the Oasis City. I can't open the portal to go there."

"Huh?" Robb paused for a moment, then understood. This was an ancient era, not the modern world. Transportation was inconvenient during this time, and it was impossible for just anyone to have been to the capital. Even in his own world, in an era with extremely convenient transportation, there were many people who had never been to the capital.

Suddenly, Robb remembered something and shouted to Motra in the crowd, "Motra, have you been to the Oasis City?"

Motra nodded, "I have been!"

"Good, quickly open the transmission portal to the Desert Kingdom," Robb instructed.

Motra nodded again and reached into his pocket, pulling out a transmission scroll, a standard item in Westwind City. Every important person had one, a magical tool that could be used anytime to escape back to Westwind City.

He held the transmission scroll, silently contemplated the word "activate," and then a transmission array unfolded. However, Motra quickly glanced over the array but couldn't find the "Oasis City."

"Godfather, something's not right. I can go to various cities, but I can't go to the Oasis City. This is strange," Motra said.

Robb was greatly puzzled, "The Oasis City doesn't have a church or a cemetery?"

"We don't have a church, but we have something similar called the Temple of Set. Behind the Temple of Set, there is also a cemetery that can be teleported to," Motra explained. "The transmission portal in my family's city can open it."

"Well, that's strange. Theoretically, the Oasis City should be able to open a transmission portal too, unless..." Robb trailed off, and several astute individuals simultaneously realized what he was implying. Robb, the queen, Elsie, the Elf elder, Baron Nuolun, and others almost spoke in unison, "The Temple of Set has been destroyed by the Black Dragon."

Everyone fell silent.

It was quite awkward. The Black Dragon was causing havoc in the Oasis City. It was heavy-handed, using large-scale magic spells. In a moment of carelessness, it had obliterated the Temple of Set and the cemetery behind it with AOE magic. It wasn't a very surprising occurrence.

Suofa collapsed to the ground with a thud and sorrowfully said, "There's not enough time to get there."

Robb also knew that there was definitely no time left. Even if he teleported to Crystal Canyon and immediately used the Flight spell, it wouldn't be enough. Although Flight was fast, it would still take at least an hour or two to fly to the middle of the vast desert. And by that time, it would be the time for the Black Dragon to retreat. Even if he hurried over, he would only see a destroyed city.

Helplessly, everyone watched the Black Dragon rampage inside the crystal ball with heavy hearts. Fireballs flew around on the screen, meteor showers continuously fell, and the oasis seemed to be uprooted. The screams of the people from the Desert Kingdom and the panicking camels filled the air. Buildings collapsed, sand and stones flew, and the Sphinx was torn in half by the Black Dragon, separating its lion body from its human face...

This terrifying scene lasted for several minutes. The scout holding the crystal ball managed to escape from the Oasis City. The image became increasingly distant and unclear. Gradually, all that could be seen was a pillar of smoke rising in the midst of the yellow sand, and flames reaching the sky. Then, nothing could be seen anymore.

The next thing they saw was the scout's face. He wore a look of post-disaster terror, pale-faced as he addressed the crystal ball, "Your Majesty, I managed to escape..." He couldn't help but burst into tears, "I finally escaped..."

Beside him, there was a group of Desert Kingdom civilians who had also managed to escape. They turned around and kneeled on the ground, facing the distant Oasis City.

On the side of the crystal ball, the people from Westwind City fell into silence.

After a long while, Robb's voice broke the silence, filled with cold determination, "Without eliminating the Black Dragon, the Fengmo Continent will never know peace. It's time to exert more effort. Let everyone intensify the search for rare mineral resources. We can no longer wait for four more years. This time, we must prepare as quickly as possible and then go to the Black Dragon's lair. We will kill it directly in its nest and prevent it from causing further havoc in the world."
