381 – Clerics of Dawn
Yang Feng scanned the treasures with his gaze, and countless streams of data flashed in his eyes as the optical computer quickly analyzed the valuables in the treasury from a remote location.
Yang Feng’s gaze moved away from that huge mountain of gold and fell on a tract of stones, and his eyes sparkled with excitement: “Inert atlam stone, what an unexpected harvest!”
Inert atlam stone was a necessary material for making warp gates. Once you manufactured warp gates, you could easily cross the distance of thousands of kilometers, tens of thousands of kilometers, light years, or hundreds of thousands of light years between two warp gates with a single step.
He looked at the inert atlam stone, a scorching glint in his eyes: “The quality of the inert atlam stone here isn’t bad. Although it’s not up to par with first-rate quality inert atlam stone, but using it to produce a warping gate to cross tens of thousands of kilometers shouldn’t be an issue. With such a warp gate, the Desolate Islands will fall under my control.”
With warp gates, great distances could be crossed with a single step. With them, Yang Feng who ruled the Read Earth Wasteland and Funes Province could take control of the Desolate Islands. He could easily mobilize his strongest troops to support a certain region. Come what may, he could easily utilize his strongest military power to fight.
His expression suddenly changed, and he pulled out a fist-sized inert atlam stone from a pile of precious stones, a look of delight in his eyes: “This is… a first-rate inert atlam stone! How lucky! This first-rate quality inert atlam stone can be used to make four first-rate warp gates.”
The first-rate inert atlam stone was extremely precious, it was a precious ore that could be used to make warp gates to cross millions to tens of millions of light years. Even at their peak of technology, the xizu could at most synthesize enough first-rate inert atlam stone to produce a single warping gate per year.
Yang Feng’s heart stirred, and his eyes sparkled with scorching light: “The first-rate warp gates may be able to link different planes! By analyzing the information available on the Cangzhi Plane, the numerous planes in this starry sky should in fact belong to the same universe. From the scientific point of view, planar passageways should be using the most advanced wormhole technology.”
If it was as Yang Feng anticipated, then he could produce four warp gates lead to four different planes, enabling him to freely travel between four different planes and gain huge profits.
In addition to the inert atlam stone, Yang Feng also found a lot of ores and magic cores and corpses of extraordinary life forms that could be used to make Great Warlock rank battle robots as well as materials that could be used to refine Legend rank magical articles in the treasury.
Of the six black dragons, there was one black dragon proficient in alchemy. It was they who refined the Legend rank secret treasure silver dragon spear and gave it to Arlet.
On an island in the Desolate Islands, a black dragon exuding terrific ancient dragon might landed on a mountain peak and changed into human form. It was Millet, the leader of the six black dragons.
Millet gazed in the direction of the Black Dragon Country. Eyes flickering with malice and madness, he gnashed his teeth and solemnly said full of resentment: “Damn humans, you dare destroy my foundation. I’ll eat all of you! “
A ship as white as jade emitting sacred light flew over and, as if crossing the void, stopped above Millet.
Aboard the jade ship, there stood three clerics donned in gorgeous cleric robes, seemingly covered in pure light of dawn.
“Reptile, you want to eat people! Hereby, I pronounce you guilty! You are to be sealed by innumerable shackles!” A middle-aged man covered in the light of dawn and filled with sacred aura, as if a god looking at a mortal, indifferently looked and pointed at Millet with the scepter in his hand.
Extremely pure light of dawn converged into pure white chains. Exuding a sacred and dignified aura and containing the law of sealing, the pure white chains shot toward Millet.
“A bunch of wolves in sheep’s clothing! I’ll tear you to pieces, you smelly humans!” Eyes shimmering with fierce and violent aura, Millet blurred and transformed into an ancient black dragon with boundless power, and a fearsome dragon might spread from him.
Ancient black dragons possessed strength above that of the mountain giant. If it weren’t for the numerous divinity of chaos, the mountain giant would not be a match for Millet transformed into an ancient black dragon.
The pure white chains fell down and twisted around Millet transformed into an ancient black dragon.
“Break!” Millet smiled fiercely, roared wildly, and exerted his strength. He erupted with ancient dragon force capable of easily destroying a mountain in an instant and tried to break the pure white chains.
The pure white chains formed from the light of dawn loosen slightly, and then wrapped tightly around Millet, as if they had a life of their own.
When the pure light of dawn touched the dragon scales, it corroded the scales, issuing sizzling noises, and plunged Millet in a world of pain.
Millet in ancient black dragon form struggled wildly. The white chains tightened and loosened as they firmly twisted around him like maggots.
Burnt marks continuously appeared on Millet’s body, releasing a burnt smell.
Eyes bloodshot, Millet suddenly belched an ancient dragon breath shooting towards the three experts donned in cleric robes.
“The great light of dawn shall protect me from heresy!” A cleric holding scripture in his hand looked at Millet indifferently and uttered words filled with sanctity.
Light of dawn gushed out of the scripture and formed a pure barrier of dawn.
When the ancient dragon breath, which could easily burn demigods to ashes, slammed into the barrier, it was blocked by the pure light of dawn.
“Evil heretic, you shall be punished by the judgement spear!” The last cleric brandished a spear radiating pure light of dawn in his hands indifferently and stabbed Millet at once.
Boundless light of dawn suddenly burst out, and Millet uttered miserable screams from the resulting pain. His blood seemed to boil as his dragon force was slowly purified by the pure light of dawn.
The numerous light of dawn chains wound around Millet and firmly restrained him, twisting his joints and sealing his strength.
The leader of the clerics looked at Millet down below, who could not exert any strength, and said coldly: “Petty reptile, convert to the great and supreme Dawn Lord and you can live! Otherwise, we will carry out divine judgement here and purified you!”
Millet was in a terrible mess, and he promptly shouted: “I wish to convert!! Spare my life!! I wish to convert to the great Dawn Lord!!”
Black dragons were evil and selfish. If you were stronger than them, you could dominate them. Of course, as the master of evil dragons, you should always be on guard against them turning on you.
“Very good! I, cleric Ramat, a pious servant of the supreme and sole true god in the world, the Dawn Lord, spreading his glory on the Feisuo Plane hereby bestow upon you the mark of faith!”
The leader of the clerics looked at Millet from high above and pointed with the scepter in his hand, and pure light of dawn entered Millet’s forehead.
Fear flashed past Millet’s eyes as he could feel a terrifying power pervade his head and wrap around his magic core. Once that power erupted, his brain would be blown to pieces.
Millet resisted the desire to operate his dragon force to resist the power of dawn. Keeping silent, he let the power carve a mark on his magic core. He was well aware that he would die once he showed any signs of resistance.
Looking at Millet down below, Ramat uttered indifferently: “Very god, now you are also a servant of the supreme and only true god – the Dawn Lord, big lizard. We have come here to put an end to all the evil gods in the Desolate Islands and to spread the faith and glory of our Lord in this land. As an aboriginal of the Desolate Island, take us to the most suitable place to spread the faith and glory of our Lord.”
Millet’s eyes sparkled with endless resentment, but he said respectfully: “Yes, great Sirs. I, Millet, used to be the divine guardian of a state in the Desolate Islands. Now that state is occupied by another evil god. Sirs, please purify that evil god. I would like to offer that state to you to spread the faith and glory of the supreme and only true god – the Dawn Lord, Sirs.”
Ramat nodded and said unhurriedly: “Very well, Millet. As long as you piously spread the faith and glory of the supreme and only true god – the Dawn Lord, you’ll receive eternal life in the divine country of our Lord after your death.”
Leonhardt, one of the two other clerics, swept Millet with an indifferent glance and uttered: “Let’s go!”
Millet quivered, then flapped his wings and flew toward the Black Dragon Country in a gust of wind.
Following behind Millet, the jade ship flew toward the Black Dragon Country.
“Clerics, why have you come?” When the jade ship stopped above the Banij City, Yang Feng’s voice came from the city.
