Reincarnated as a Red Dragon, Discipline Makes Me Stronger!-Chapter 50 - An Inescapable Net! Surrounded by a 100 Thousand-strong
Chapter 50: An Inescapable Net! Surrounded by a 100 Thousand-strong Army!
Golden grains of sand whizzed in the air as dark clouds filled the sky.
No one knew when rain would finally fall upon the dry desert region.
“Report, the Mountain Boar Squad has located the excrement of dragons!”
“Report, the Hunting Hound Squad has discovered the footprints of the Giant Dragon!”
“Sir Felix, the Cruel Lizard Squad has located food residue. They reason that a dragon lair is nearby!” ƒ𝑟𝙚e𝔀𝗲𝒃n𝒐𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝗼𝚖
Piece after piece of information came to Felix’s notice as he peered forward at he mountain ridge before him with his massive staff in hand.
“Everyone, maintain a Level 1 Alert! Be prepared to fight against a dragon at any time!”
Felix ordered as he got off his horse.
The two-meter-tall Felix closed his eyes slowly and stuck his staff into the ground as he muttered something softly.
“Wind spirits, heed my call, and describe what you’ve witnessed!”
This was the tracking magic that Tahir had used previously, Wind Speak. It was also thanks to this powerful ability that had allowed Tahir to locate Max back then.
Obviously, Felix was not as strong as Tahir. Although Wind Speak’s effective had been magnified by several magnitudes due to the desert terrain, as Felix was only a Platinum Rank mage, it was impossible to match Tahir’s search range.
Compared to Tahir’s search range that covered almost half of the desert, Felix’s search range had covered only a little more than 500 meters. At the same time, his search accuracy was also not as accurate as Tahir’s.
The difference in spell strength of more than a hundred times was not something that could be easily bridged.
After searching for a few minutes, Felix suddenly opened his eyes. A hint of excitement flashed past his eyes.
“I found them!”
Felix said excitedly.
With the use of Wind Speak, Felix had located three gigantic silhouettes within a cave!
‘They’re definitely dragons!’
‘The dragons haven’t even noticed us, and they’re still sleeping soundly in their cave!’
‘As expected, these arrogant and stupid dragons could not compare to the intelligent and brave humans!’
‘They are inches away from death, and yet they’re still sleeping! Dying in their sleep? That’s simply pathetic!’
“Sir Felix, have you located it?”
The soldier beside him could not help but ask when he saw Felix’s excited expression.
“Yes, but it’s not the mysterious dragon in the rumors. It’s the Ancient Dragon Agatha and her two Dragon Hatchlings.”
“Huh? Doesn’t this mean that we’ve located the wrong target?” ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m
“We have to report this to Sir Calsus and come up with a new plan.”
The soldier beside him could not help but feel disappointed and said in annoyance.
Felix snorted. “This operation is a crusade against the dragons. Sir Calsus has incorporated all the dragons in his strategy.”
“Lady Luck is not on Agatha’s side. Her death is imminent!”
Felix licked his dry lips in excitement.
Calsus had assigned each of their armies a Dragon-vanquishing Ballista and five slaying ballista and five Dragon-vanquishing Bolts.
The ballista was a great weapon that could easily penetrate the scales of Ancient Dragons. Better still, all three dragons were “asleep” and completely unaware of the human army lying in wait! To Felix, this was an opportunity of a lifetime!
There was not a single soul on the continent who did not recognize Bloom’s name.
The reputation that Bloom held was something that Felix had yearned for, and in this moment, the opportunity to gain such a reputation had finally presented itself!
Felix was 80% certain that so long as he targeted Agatha’s vital points with the Dragon-vanquishing Ballista, Agatha would instantly be knocked out of the fight.
A dragon that had lost its ability to fight was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered!
Moreover, according to the information he had gained from Wind Speak, Agatha also had her children by her side. Without Agatha’s protection, there was no way the Dragon Hatchlings would escape.
“According to reliable information of the wind spirits, Agatha and her children are sleeping in the cave. They have not discovered us yet.”
“Now is the best time for us to make our move!”
“Moldy Bread Squad[1], Mountain Hound Squad, assemble the Dragon-vanquishing Ballista immediately! Iron Maiden Squad, prepare the Dragon-vanquishing Bolts!”
“We have only once chance. Once we make our move, we must take down Agatha with lightning speed! Should we fail here, the consequences will be disastrous!”
Felix mounted his horse and approached the cave with his most trusted subordinates.
The Moldy Bread Squad and the Mountain Hound Squad who had already finished assembling the Dragon-vanquishing Ballista followed closely behind Felix.
On the dragon-slaying ballista, the pure black Dragon-vanquishing arrow was flickering with a cold glint!
The Iron Maiden Squad that was in charge of arming the bolts was also ready to reload at any time.
The remaining troops were also on standby and they were surrounding the lair.
“What are you trying to do, Felix?”
Just as Felic was about to step into the lair, a regal voice suddenly came from behind him.
Felix turned around and saw that it was Calsus.
The three huge armies had officially gathered and they had successfully blocked off the surroundings of the cave.
Countless traps and archers were already in place. They only needed to give the order to form an inescapable net.
In the sky, Max, who was observing all of this, clicked his tongue.
‘The humans have expended great amount of resources to deal with me.’
‘This is definitely a costly venture that requires the cooperation of several lords.’
“Sir Calsus, I have already used Wind Speak to probe the cave! have confirmed that Agatha and her children are sleeping inside! Our presence has gone unnoticed!”
“As long as we launch an attack now and give Agatha a a fatal blow, we will be able to save a large portion of our resources!”
Felix quickly explained the situation to Calsus. After all, in the original strategy, Felix was supposed to wait for the three armies to gather before launching their operation.
However, Felix had acted on his own accord. It was no wonder that Calsus was so angry.
After hearing Felix’s explanation, Calsus thought for a while before answering, “Will you take responsibility for whatever comes next?”
“Of course, I’m willing to swear on my life!”
Felix said excitedly.
Gallio said coldly, “I hope that you’re not trying to claim all the glory for yourself. Careful that you’ll bite more than you can chill.”
