Chapter 116 The Return of the Missing Powerful
Chapter 116 The Return of the Missing Powerful
"Oh dear, the show is about to begin."
"I can't hide it any longer."
"Hurry up and speed up."
...
Beneath the forest lies the solid earth.
Beneath the earth lies endless underground magma and all sorts of underground rivers.
At this very moment, within an underground river, lies a vast, vacuum-like spherical space. Water from all sides is completely isolated.
Within the space, all sorts of people floated—otherworldly beings, elves, dragons, orcs, dwarves… They were all unconscious, not conscious. There were many of them, at least thirty-five.
If those superhumans who stormed the temple saw these guys, they would realize that these superhumans were the "comrades" who had previously gone missing.
However, if they are discovered, there might be another strange and unusual discovery.
For example, these extraordinary individuals all have a huge pattern on their bodies.
At this very moment, Loya was standing next to the newly captured human legend, Oztro. He quickly stripped the man naked and then took out his inscription pen, writing and drawing on it.
Not long after, a pattern similar to that of other superhumans appeared.
"Phew." Loya exhaled a deep breath and said, "Very good, another trump card is complete. From now on, even if a true epic-level powerhouse comes, I won't be afraid at all."
“I could even slaughter an epic-level powerhouse right now.”
A strange smile involuntarily crept onto Loya's dragon face once again.
He turned to look at the superhumans around him, "My little darlings, come here, I'll help you cover up these lovely inscriptions."
After resting for a while, Loya got back to work.
He took out a special potion and removed the inscriptions from these extraordinary individuals. However, this was only superficially removed; in reality, the inscriptions still remained.
"I should go now. Perhaps we'll meet again soon."
"I hope you'll be sensible when the time comes."
"After all, I only robbed you of your wealth; I didn't kill you."
"To be honest, I'm really kind."
"I have disgraced the dragon race."
Loya felt somewhat emotional, believing that he had truly done everything he could to be kind and righteous.
You see, a normal murderer, if they did this, would definitely try to hide it.
Only he would have the audacity to release these extraordinary beings.
Of course, this is mainly because they were not completely wiped out.
In this way, the powerful forces behind them should not make a big fuss and turn Loya into a mortal enemy.
Nowadays, at most only these "victims" still resent him.
However, these victims were no match for Loya, and their resentment wasn't a serious matter to him. On the contrary, the special benefits they brought to Loya were enough to offset these disadvantages.
With a "whoosh," Loya vanished into thin air.
The place has quieted down.
Yes, about a minute later.
"Huh, I'm not dead?"
A green-haired female elf slowly opened her eyes.
She looked around in confusion, but did not see the red dragon that had attacked her.
Meanwhile, other extraordinary individuals are also slowly recovering.
"Ah, how did I get here?"
"I was clearly attacked by the dragon earlier."
"The dragon that attacked you, was it red?"
"yes."
"Ah. I was also attacked by the red dragon."
...
They exchanged glances, and only then did they realize that they had all been attacked by the red dragon Loya.
“My power is still intact,” the human legend Oztro said, releasing a small portion of his power. “But my wealth is gone.”
Upon hearing this, the other superhumans also realized what was going on.
"Hmph, that evil dragon didn't even kill us." A short, dark-skinned old man said with displeasure, "But he took all my wealth, all the wealth I've accumulated over the past hundred years. Damn it, damn it, once we get out, I'll definitely put a warrant for his arrest."
"That's right, I'll also issue a warrant for his arrest."
"I will not rest until I kill him."
Everyone started making a ruckus again.
"Just surviving is something to be happy about and pray for. As for the lost wealth, we can accumulate it slowly later." Ottoro was very sensible; recalling Loya's power and elusive nature, he couldn't help but feel a chill. This kind of evil dragon looked just like a peak legend. And such a powerful being could absolutely not be dealt with by their own strength alone. Only an epic-level powerhouse could personally intervene and have any chance of success. However, how could an epic-level powerhouse possibly make a big fuss over their "trivial matter"?
"Haha, humans are such cowards. They cower when treated like this." A powerful figure nearby couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
Oztro retorted sarcastically, "Your wealth is almost gone. What do you have left to offer as a bounty for that dragon? Do you know how much it takes to deal with a dragon of that level?"
The old dwarf sneered, "Don't underestimate me. I have plenty of friends. If I can't do it on my own, I'll ask my friends for help."
Oztro was helpless; unfortunately, he had no good friends. Even fewer were willing to help him fight that terrifying dragon.
...
"Alright, let's hurry up and get out of here. The legacy of the ancient Green Dragon King is still waiting for us to explore. I wonder if this treasure hunt is over yet?" A golden dragon about twenty meters long said impatiently.
"Crack!" The moment those words were spoken, the space that had isolated the water exploded.
Immediately afterwards, an immense amount of water was squeezed in.
"Roar!" Everyone couldn't help but roar, unleashing their own unique and powerful aura.
The water from all directions was completely blasted apart.
With a loud rumble, the earth trembled slightly.
The entire underground river is also expanding.
The underground soil and lava from all directions were also compressed and spread out, making the vacuum zone here even larger.
Magic: [Radiant Eyes]
There was a legendary magician who used magic to enhance eyesight.
“This is underground. If we join forces, we can break through this earth and get out,” the magician said.
"Does anyone know spatial magic, or other earth-burrowing magic? That way, we won't have to go through all that trouble to dig a hole," Oztro asked loudly.
“I will, but I won’t bring anyone with me,” a shifty-eyed orc legend suddenly said.
After he finished speaking, he disappeared without a trace.
Clearly, he used a technique similar to teleportation to escape from here.
"Damn rat demon!" The legendary superhumans around couldn't help but curse.
"Speed up!" The golden dragon opened its mouth and spewed out a brilliant golden beam of light.

...
With a leader in charge, everyone wholeheartedly began to advance.
With a loud crackling sound, the underground river trembled even more violently.
Even the ground surface experienced noticeable tremors.
Although their numbers were not as large as those of the powerful figures surrounding the temple, there were still several dozen of them.
When they join forces, they can even send an epic-level expert flying if they stand in front of them.
Of course, it's an epic-level story below "Level 3".
Even more powerful epic-level powerhouses might not be able to do it.
After all, although there were many legendary experts present, their true level was basically no higher than the sixth level of legend.
Otherwise, Loya wouldn't have been able to capture them so quietly in such a short time.
Legendary powerhouses at level six and above are all incredibly strong. Add to that some killer moves, and they're practically impossible to kill instantly.
...
The group of outsiders underground were quite far from the temple. Otherwise, the outsiders around the temple would definitely have been able to sense the commotion they were causing.
"Wow, this is truly spectacular."
Not far from the temple.
Loya, who had arrived here silently, stared in shock at the attack launched by the outsiders.
That being said, his claws were not idle.
He is rapidly adding inscriptions to his body.
Now that we are powerful and have abundant magic power...
He can inscribe intermediate-level inscriptions in seconds.
Advanced inscriptions, on the other hand, take at most one or two minutes.
At the same time, the inscriptions he has now engraved are all extremely small in size.
If Loya were to expose all the inscriptions on his body.
It would absolutely make even epic-level powerhouses shudder.
Unfortunately, Loya was very cautious; he had hidden all his inscriptions.
Moreover, it was sponsored by many legendary figures.
Loya's inscription invisibility potion is now much more powerful than before.
Some epic-level powerhouses, without any super-powerful skill that enhances their eyesight, probably wouldn't be able to see his [Witchcraft Inscription].
However, if the inscriptions of the sorcery are overloaded, fluctuations will definitely be revealed.
Unfortunately, there aren't many powerful individuals in this world who can force him to overload his [Witchcraft Inscriptions].
"Crackling sounds," the attack continued.
After dozens more waves of combined attacks, the protective force field on the surface of the temple finally gave way. The illusory dragon shadow on it let out a roar filled with unwilling anger and then disappeared.
Without the protective shield, the temple felt noticeably fresher.
However, the temple was still unclear.
"It seems to have merged into the surface space. The ancient Green Dragon King's research on spatial power seems to be quite good."
The robust old man, Fonte, couldn't help but complain, "It seems there are other obstacles waiting for us next."
Lasha didn't take it seriously: "With our combined strength, no obstacle in the future can stop us."
...
Many outsiders began to rush forward.
A faint, sacred dragon's might flickered across the temple.
This thing can make the weak tremble with fear. Even the strong will feel very uncomfortable, and their strength will be weakened.
“This is definitely the residual power left behind by the ancient Green Dragon King,” Hallena said, her voice heavy with embarrassment.
Fenrir Langdon: "Perhaps it contains the remains of the ancient Green Dragon King, a divine body, which is extremely valuable."
Font shouted, "Those who can't withstand the dragon's pressure will stay outside and watch!"
If a weaker person forces their way in, they might hold their companions back.
They were getting closer and closer to the temple.
It was only then that everyone realized that the temple gave people a visual illusion of "looking at a mountain but running to death."
And the temple grew larger and larger.
The divine dragon's might grew stronger and stronger.
"Ah, I can't go on." A first-level legendary human stopped, panting heavily.
"I think I've reached my limit too." Not far away, other extraordinary beings also felt that they had reached their limits.
"Damn it, how could this happen?"
"We can't even withstand the might of this ancient Green Dragon King?"
"Ugh, this is so unlucky."
...
Even the weakest legends are never peaceful.
"Hey, Poison Horned Dragon, let's team up and go somewhere else, shall we? If we can't get the benefits from the Temple, let's find some other local specialties." A chubby, strange-looking man with butterfly-like wings flew over to a dragon without wings and with poison horns on its head and said.
This sub-dragon walks on its two legs, much like a Tyrannosaurus Rex, except that its upper limbs are slightly larger.
"Well, that's settled then," said the Poison Horned Dragon, though he was very unwilling.
But since they can't get in now, they can only plunder other little treasures.
Otherwise, this trip would have been a complete waste of time. That's something they can't accept.
In fact, the legend of intelligence doesn't only extend to the two of them.
Soon, the weaker legendary figures from other directions also began to retreat, preparing to scavenge for local specialties in distant lands.
...
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh," soon after, the retreating and advancing powerhouses suddenly stopped, turning their heads in astonishment to look towards the distant east.
"What is this?" Lasha's eyes widened, his face filled with shock, mixed with obvious surprise.
“There’s no mistake, I can sense those lost clansmen.” The Silvermoon Elf Karl clenched his hands, his handsome face filled with excitement and surprise.
"Hahaha, that's amazing, they're still alive."
...
In the short time it took to exchange just a few words, a large shadow appeared in the distant sky. Upon closer inspection, it became clear that they were all prisoners who had been freed from the underground river.
Not long after, the missing superhuman arrived here.
The two sides begin their round.
"Sanglang, what exactly is going on with you?" Lasha rushed to one of the golden dragons and forcefully protected it.
Sang Lang chuckled foolishly, "Brother Lasha, be gentle. You're going to kill me."
Lasha took a deep breath to calm himself down. He put Sanglang down and asked, "I'm sorry, I was too excited. I thought you were dead."
Sang Lang nodded: "At first, I also thought I was dead."
Lasha asked curiously, "What exactly is going on with you guys?"
Not only was Lasha curious, but other factions were also filled with curiosity about these surviving missing persons.
The missing persons made no attempt to conceal anything; their expressions turned awkward and resentful. They eagerly began to explain and looked around, trying to see if the red dragon that had captured them was still there.
Unfortunately, they were disappointed.
They couldn't even see a shadow of Loya.
"What? The red dragon did it?"
"You were beaten half to death?"
"All the wealth has been stolen?"
"Hmph, you red, trashy dragon, better if I find you, or else..."
When everyone learned that the red dragon was the murderer, they were all filled with rage.
