Chapter 266 Invading the Heartland

"Arrogant Zern!" The Troll Water Elemental Mage roared, raising the nail-studded hammer in his hand, his eyes flashing fiercely.

"Wait!"

Go Gin raised his arm to stop the Troll Water Elemental Mage, looking up at the Mist Witch ahead:

"What exactly does that lord want to do? Is he asking us to start a war with the Zern tribe?"

The Mist Witch flickered lightly and appeared before Go Gin, raising her head and staring into Go Gin's serious eyes: "What the lord wants to do is not something you need to speculate about."

"Since they want to fight, then let's start a war."

The indifferent tone rang out.

This made the already volatile Troll Water Elemental Mage and Earth Elemental Troll, who had nowhere to vent their anger during this time, grin hideously.

Go Gin couldn't help but clench his fists, his gaze coldly fixed on the Mist Witch. At such a close distance, he was confident that he could severely injure or even kill the Mist Witch with a single blow.

But he couldn't do that yet.

As a warrior, he would not yield to anyone!

But Go Gin needed to figure out what that man was up to.

Thinking of the terrifying aura that suddenly emanated from the other party not long ago, Go Gin couldn't help but shudder inwardly.

If he couldn't be sure before.

Then at that moment, Go Gin knew that even if he found an opportunity to get close, he, as a warrior, would still not be a match for that magic caster.

Could it be that that man surpassed the "Hero Domain" and became… …

The first person that came to Go Gin's mind was the legendary "Imperial Guardian" of the human empire where he had previously been.

No!

That hateful man could never reach that realm.

Go Gin shook off the thoughts in his head. That man was indeed very strong, but as long as he joined forces with other powerhouses in the Abelion Hills, he should be able to defeat him.

"Hey, hey, what are you thinking about? That look in your eyes just now was very dangerous." The Mist Witch narrowed her eyes, staring at Go Gin as she spoke.

"Hmph."

Go Gin snorted coldly, "I'm afraid you can't be the master of that man."

The Mist Witch paused and withdrew her gaze.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Suddenly, dense sounds of rushing wind came from the direction of the Zern troops. They didn't have the Trolls' complicated situation.

Arrows pierced through the air, densely appearing in everyone's vision, falling down, causing the troll, who had barely managed to remain quiet, to roar and cry out in pain.

The Mist Witch, Go Gin, and the others could naturally avoid such attacks with ease.

"They attacked first. Now, we have to fight even if we don't want to." The Mist Witch said with a hint of excitement.

Compared to the steady Verdant Witch, the Mist Witch's personality was obviously more outgoing, the type who feared nothing more than the world being at peace.

Helplessness flashed in Go Gin's eyes, and he was just about to open his mouth.

Boom!

A roar came from the sky above everyone.

A huge shadow flew over from behind the troll troops and appeared in the center of the battlefield.

The Zern troops were the first to let out terrified cries of panic, each looking up at the sky in fear.

In the sky.

About three meters tall, with a pair of bone wings spanning six meters, a huge figure was flapping in mid-air, generating strong gusts of wind and ear-piercing bone whistles.

It was an aggregate completely composed of bones. Countless bones were connected together, imitating the great race with long necks, four legs, and wings—the Dragon!

Minori stood on the head of the Bone Dragon, his eyes indifferently overlooking the scene below.

"What is that… …"

"An Undead!"

"It's an Undead!"

Terrified and panicked voices constantly rang out in the Zern troops, especially the terrifying appearance of the Bone Dragon, which caused many Zerns to lose their will to fight at once.

Undead have always been existences feared and opposed by the living!

This Bone Dragon in front of them was an Undead species that most people, even races, had never even heard of.

This was an extremely rare Undead creature. Even during the 200+ years since the fall of the kingdom, they had only heard of it and never seen it.

Because the characteristics of the Bone Dragon were simply disastrous for magic casters from another world.

The Bone Dragon itself was only at the 16th level. Its pure strength was not considered high. Adventurers of Mythril-ranked and above possessed the power to fight against the Bone Dragon.

But this low-level Undead.

Possessed the ability to be immune to spells below the sixth tier, and this level of magic proficiency already belonged to the level of "aberrant."

With the talent of humans or even other races, being able to master the 5th tier of magic was already the best of geniuses, let alone the sixth tier of magic.

At this time, not to mention the Zern side.

Astonishment appeared on the faces of Go Gin and the others.

The Mist Witch opened her mouth, looking at the figure standing on the Bone Dragon in mid-air, her eyes filled with fear and respect.

The master's strength was like an abyss. The more you understood, the more you could appreciate the unfathomable terror.

"All spellcasters!"

"Attack the Undead in the sky!"

The Bone Dragon was at a height that normal arrows could not reach. The commander of the Zern troops calmed down and shouted loudly.

The Zern tribe possessed considerable talent as spellcasters, especially the royal family, who controlled the rare mental-type spellcaster class.

In an instant!

Spells flew from below, bombarding the Bone Dragon, which did not dodge at all.

Before the spellcasters could rejoice, all the Zerns revealed incredulous expressions. The magic they released landed on the Bone Dragon without producing any effect or damage, as if a stone had sunk into the sea.

Fear spread among the Zerns.

"You've finished attacking, now it's my turn."

Minori stepped on the head of the Bone Dragon, raised his arm and aimed at the Zern troops below, chanting in a hoarse voice:

"Lightning Dragon!"

"Ka—kachak—"

Blue electric light suddenly condensed on his arm, then gradually emitted a dazzling white light, and then formed a dragon-shaped lightning in mid-air, crashing down.

Boom!

The astonishing Lightning Dragon lightning streaked across the sky in a blue flash. The spellcasters in the Zern troops did not have time to cast defensive spells.

They could only watch as the electric current exploded in the center of the troops.

Powerful electric light swept all around!

"No… …"

The Zern Commander only felt a flash of white before his eyes, followed by a shockwave that spread out, blasting her away and smashing her into the ground in the distance.

Severe pain swept through her body. The electric current formed by the spread of the lightning turned the smooth surface of her body black.

The Zern Commander's catfish-shaped mouth constantly spewed out liquid and minced meat. Her blurry consciousness could only hear the screams and wails of her compatriots.

The 500-strong Zern troop suffered nearly a hundred casualties from just one "Lightning Dragon," and the entire troop directly collapsed.

'Experience gained: 71 points'

'Experience gained: 75 points'

'… … … …'

[Experience Bar: 348923 / 410000]

Minori scanned the attribute panel, gaining about 7000 experience points at once.

"Capture the living Zerns and continue the advance." Minori stood on the Bone Dragon and said to the Mist Witch and the others below.

The Troll Water Elemental Mage and Earth Elemental Troll beat their chests and roared excitedly.

For the troll clan, who worshiped the strong, the strength Minori displayed had completely subjugated them.

The group continued to advance.

The defense line built by the Zern tribe was easily destroyed and broken through by Minori's powerful offensive.

The power of the fifth-tier magic was simply not something ordinary Zern tribe soldiers could resist, and the magic attacks released by the many spellcasters of the Zern tribe.

Also could not cause any damage to the Bone Dragon at all.

This scene created an almost crushing situation. Even though Minori did not engage in much killing, he still gained a lot of experience.

Before long.

Minori led the Troll legion and had already invaded the Zern tribe's hinterland.

Although the Zern tribe had a strong reproductive ability, they did not have a large population, about 6000 people.

The reason for this situation was that there were too few males, that is, only two members of the royal family, and on the other hand, there was the problem of food.

Whoosh!

The Bone Dragon's bone wings flapped, forming gusts of wind.

Below were a group of Zern soldiers stubbornly guarding the entrance to a cave. There were less than 200 of them. General Boobeebee stood at the forefront, wearing magical armor completely tailored to the race.

"Everyone, defend the position to the death."

"Buy time for the king to leave." Boobeebee gripped the weapon in his hand, staring intently at the human in the sky.

If he hadn't witnessed all of this with his own eyes, Boobeebee would never have imagined that the entire legion of the tribe would be completely broken through in such a short period of time.

This human's power was too strong!

That undead creature that could resist all magic attacks, and the fifth-tier magic power that the other party released, which surpassed the fourth-tier magic power.

This level was no longer something that could be overcome by sheer numbers.

"Are you planning to put up a last-ditch resistance?"

"Or are you buying time for your king to flee?" Minori's indifferent, hoarse voice came from mid-air.

Causing Boobeebee's heart to tighten.

This was not difficult to guess.

The Zern tribe only needed one male and one female to ensure the survival of the race. As for the other members?

The Zerns were actually cold-blooded creatures.

Minori remembered that in the library version of the novel, the Zern tribe would easily abandon more than three thousand Zern troops in order to rescue the prince.

In the eyes of the Zerns, as long as the group could survive, individual life and death were not important.

"Human, you control the undead… …" Boobeebee gripped her weapon, angrily shouting loudly.

But before she could finish speaking, a burst of commotion suddenly came from behind, causing Boobeebee's heart to jump. She turned her head in a panic and looked towards the rear.

She saw a strange creature, a purple worm-like chrysalis with six or seven wart-like feet on its upper body, crawling out of the cave behind.

"King!" Boobeebee was shocked and panicked when he saw this figure.
