Kress Mountains.

This area lies west of the southern border of the Fairy Empire. While not a large mountain range, it stretches for dozens of kilometers. Within the mountains, numerous magical beasts and rare medicinal plants live. Nearby, a fairy village lies at the foot of the mountain, attracting many adventurers who hunt magical beasts and explore the secret realms.

It’s not a prosperous area, but it’s quite lively.

Rumble——

However, at this moment, unexpected disaster befell these villages. As red meteors fell from the sky, the mountains in the distance collapsed one by one. Under the violent tremors of the earth, the land cracked and directly affected the villages that were farther away.

Most of the goblins in this kind of place are seventh-ring mages, and those at the eighth-ring level are extremely rare. Moreover, the strength of the goblin villagers is not on the same level as the imperial soldiers who are also at the seventh-ring level.

Even at the same level, there are huge differences in strength due to the degree of knowledge mastered, the strength of equipment, and the degree of amplification of the magic network.

These countryside goblin villagers are all extremely low-level goblins. Even if they are a seven-ring wizard, the magic power they can exert may not be as good as that of a five-ring wizard in the imperial capital.

Therefore, under the impact of the earthquake, a large number of fairy villagers could not escape and were buried alive due to the changes in the geographical environment. Most of them did not even have time to cast spells.

The goblin villagers, who had no time to cast spells, would naturally die instantly in the face of natural disasters, relying solely on their physical strength as the world turned upside down. This was the tragedy of low-level magicians, whose chances of survival were even worse than those of low-level warriors.

"Why is this happening...?"

"Great Fairy Mother... why did you send down such a divine punishment..."

“Save me—”

The location where the red meteor fell was dozens of kilometers away from the village here, but it was still affected by the earthquake and destroyed. Only a small number of survivors escaped. Looking at their destroyed homes, which were completely covered by mud and rocks, they couldn't help but cry out in resentment and helplessness.

No one expected that an ordinary and peaceful village would encounter such a horrific earthquake.

At this time, a black swordsman dressed in black was passing by on a magical beast. He glanced at the miserable plight of the villagers from afar. Although he had no expression on his face, he couldn't help but sigh.

"well..."

After all, this place is still within his territory, so these villagers are considered his people.

"Grand Duke..."

The two men next to him hurried forward, their expressions very complicated, and they seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"This is a sin caused by the evil dragon. Don't blame the Council of Elders. As the lord of this place, how can I watch my people die in vain and remain indifferent?"

The black swordsman knew what his subordinate wanted to say. He waved his hands repeatedly and then suddenly took out a pitch-black sword from his arms.

This black sword is covered with silver-grey rust, which looks extremely colorful, especially the blade, which is dull and does not look sharp at all.

Then he no longer cared about his subordinates, but instead controlled the magic tiger under him and charged towards the location where the meteor fell.

A place with huge pits.

Ouch——

Following a huge dragon roar, the pitch-black dragon body slowly climbed up, and when the smoke and lava dissipated, the figure of the evil dragon was revealed.

But at this moment, it was in an extremely miserable state, its whole body was in tatters. The black wings were almost only the skeleton, and the wing membranes and flesh on them had long disappeared. Its body was even more tattered, with black blood flowing in the places where the scales were broken. Even with the dragon's self-healing ability, it could not be repaired in a short time.

The seventeenth-ringed ancient evil dragon is already one of the most perfect creatures in the material world. However, after fighting against the fairy fleet and two legendary fairies in succession, it still suffered heavy damage.

If Ophelia's forbidden space spell is added, it is equivalent to fighting against four or five legendary enemies in a short period of time.

While there were differences in the rank of legendary creatures, the disparity wasn't drastic. Even a Primordial Evil Dragon would struggle to defeat a single legendary creature in its entirety.

What's more, another mid-level legendary is charging towards it.

Looking at the two giant beasts lying not far away, the Ancient Evil Dragon opened its golden pupils wearily. The two druids had simply fainted. Although it wanted to continue killing them, it...

It glanced straight ahead, and where the dust was rising, it saw a dark swordsman rushing towards it across space at an extremely fast speed.

"Damn it, the enemies keep coming. Even the great Derekus..."

The ancient evil dragon dragged its tired body and suddenly let out a roar when the black swordsman was about to approach its body.

The evil dragon's roar is one of the simplest and most powerful means of attack, which has the effect of directly disrupting the mind and dispersing the soul of a living creature.

Even if the soul of a legendary creature is unaffected, its offensive will inevitably stagnate in the face of a dragon's roar.

However, a blue light suddenly flashed in the black swordsman's eyes, and a layer of transparent film covered his body. He ignored the fluctuations of the dragon's roar and swung the black rusty sword fiercely, stabbing at the evil dragon's reverse scales.

As the most top-notch warrior, the Black Rose Grand Duke's magic and martial arts have both reached a perfect state. If he had not been stuck in a bottleneck for two thousand years, he would have reached the high-level legendary level long ago.

His rich combat experience allows him to find the enemy's weak points and hit them in a very short time, and he is never afraid of fighting, even if the enemy is much stronger than himself.
