Chapter 257: Chapter 252: The Claw of Black Wolf
If it had been before, it could have instakilled Huang Yi with a single breath, but now Huang Yi was in the sa camp as the creature, so it couldn’t attack him. Not only that, all mbers of the Hero Guild were now in the sa camp as the Undead Flying Dragon, so there was no risk of accidental injury.
"Let’s get out of here!" said Huang Yi, walking slowly towards the exit of the prison with the Undead Flying Dragon.
"Prison Warden, I want my freedom too!"
"I’m willing to sign a guild contract with you."
"Kid, I’m powerful. No one can beat , whether in heaven or on earth. Why not sign a contract with ?"
"Hmph! What an arrogant claim. Who says no one can beat you? If you dare, fight . If I win, then we’ll sign a contract..."
At this mont, shouts from several criminals could be heard echoing from their cells. They had heard Huang Yi’s conversation clearly, and now, seeing the Undead Flying Dragon actually leaving the prison, they were convinced Huang Yi wasn’t lying. The criminals were all stirred up, eager to sign a guild contract with Huang Yi and gain their freedom.
"Sorry! There are limited opportunities!" Huang Yi looked around the cells and spoke out loud. He actually wanted to sign more criminals, but he had only bought three contract stones. Signing two more guardians for the subsidiary battle flags would suffice. Besides, the guild territory wasn’t in any danger now, and having one criminal guardian was already enough. Releasing so many criminals wouldn’t be very aningful.
Unfortunately, these criminals could only move within the territory and couldn’t follow him to the outside world. Otherwise, he would be able to conquer the whole world now. Releasing thousands of criminals to sweep across the world would leave no survivors wherever they went.
Soon after, Huang Yi and the Undead Flying Dragon stepped out of the Heroes’ Prison and into the outside world.
As the Undead Flying Dragon erged, it saw the green forests around it, gazed at the moonlit starry sky overhead, and breathed in the fresh air, its whole body trembling uncontrollably as tears involuntarily filled its eyes. It didn’t know how long it had been since it had seen such a sight.
Imdiately, it spread its massive wings and soared fiercely into the wide sky, flying freely in this wondrous world!
At that mont, the bright moon served as its backdrop, its fierce silhouette cast against the moon forming a giant shadow.
It opened its dragon’s mouth and let out a dragon’s cry, unrestrained, that had been pent up for countless ages. The cry echoed between heaven and earth, reaching every peak in the Heavenly Pit, every bird’s nest in the trees, and every beast’s territory, bringing with it an oppression like that of the soul.
In an instant, the entire land and all living beings trembled, shivering, afraid to make a sound.
The Undead Flying Dragon was a Level One Hundred and Ninety-Five powerhouse, even more formidable than the Sand Thief King. It was an unrivaled existence on the entire continent, and this area was but a speck of land on the map, with the Undead Flying Dragon reigning supre.
"Instakill, what on earth is that thing? It’s so powerful!" exclaid Qin Shiyu, patting her chest as she looked at the giant dragon shadow in the sky, astonished.
"That’s our Main Territory Guardian," said Huang Yi, looking up at the Undead Flying Dragon that was flying further and further away, and he slightly smiled. "Next, we need to find a king of the land and an overlord of the seas to guard our other two territories."
"With such powerful guardians, our territory is as secure as Fort Knox!" Qin Shiyu remarked with emotion.
"Now that we have the territory and the guardians, I need to head to Dragon City imdiately and take it over. Xiao Yu, I’m appointing you as vice president. You will be in charge of guild affairs during this ti," Huang Yi said, exercising the guild’s highest power and imdiately promoting Qin Shiyu to vice president.
"Okay! You don’t have to worry about internal affairs." Qin Shiyu nodded. "After you’ve taken Dragon City, you’ll have to fix the teleportation circle there. We have an array master who’s very talented here. He had a breakthrough a few days ago and now can repair teleportation circles even like the one in Dragon City. Though, it requires a lot of precious materials we don’t currently have. We’ll have to purchase them from the auction house."
"I’ll figure sothing out for that!" Huang Yi nodded, his desire for money intensified further. Money was needed everywhere now, and he had to amass a fortune quickly for the guild to develop.
Just then, the world suddenly darkened as the Undead Flying Dragon returned, its enormous wings blocking out the moonlight and casting a shadow over Huang Yi and the other two. At that mont, two smaller flying dragons flanked it on either side, likely summoned by the Undead Flying Dragon. Even these smaller dragons were imnsely powerful, capable of causing devastation wherever they went if set loose in the world.
"Your territory is too small!" the voice of the Undead Flying Dragon thundered, like booming thunder, "You need to expand your territory, preferably to cover the entire continent. Only then will I have enough space to fly to my heart’s content!"
"Such a day will co," Huang Yi replied, looking up at the massive and fearso Undead Flying Dragon in the sky. "For now, you’re in charge of protecting this place. If it falls, your life is forfeit too."
"Rest assured! As long as they aren’t Celestial Realm experts over Level Two Hundred, I fear no one. Also, this continent seems very weak; it lacks the vast power of the earth. A barren land like this is unlikely to give birth to any powerful beings," the voice of the Undead Flying Dragon spread in all directions.
Huang Yi glanced at Qin Shiyu and said, "Xiao Yu, there’s no ti to lose. I need to start my journey to Dragon City imdiately!"
"Big brother, I want to go too!" Xiao Chunzi clung tightly to Huang Yi’s arm, pouting and insisting.
"You stay here; I’ll be back soon." Huang Yi patted Xiao Chunzi’s head. "Besides, my incarnation is already on its way to Bai Long Lake. Tomorrow, I’ll be able to bring Little Wang over so that we can all play together."
"Okay then! Let
give you a status boost first!" Xiao Chunzi pondered for a mont before finally nodding her small head. She waved her little hand and a green light filled with the essence of life flew out, blessing Huang Yi.
Suddenly, Huang Yi gained a status—[Returning Light]—for the next 10 days, he would have the ability to resurrect in place once after death without any loss.
This was the first ability Huang Yi knew of that allowed one to resurrect without any loss after death; probably one of the most powerful support abilities in The Second World. However, this was Xiao Chunzi’s Nefalem Skill, which required the Power of the Nefalem to cast, so it couldn’t be used indiscriminately.
With this status, Huang Yi felt much safer. There were already few who could kill him, and even fewer could do so twice.
"Brother, you must co back safely!" Xiao Chunzi said, hugging Huang Yi’s body and burying her face in his chest to savor the last bit of warmth.
Huang Yi smiled faintly and patted her head, "As long as you’re willing to wait, I’ll definitely co back!" With those words, he imdiately turned around and strode away.
Qin Shiyu and Xiao Chunzi watched Huang Yi from afar as his silhouette gradually beca more distant.
A dark cloud drifted over, obscuring the bright moon, darkening the land ever so slightly. Huang Yi’s figure was completely enveloped in darkness, swallowed by the night.
...
Huang Yi teleported to Tiantai City using the Teleportation Circle and then teleported from there to Sand Dust Town, which was only a two-day journey from Dragon City. Given his speed, vastly surpassing that of average players, he estimated that he could get there in just one day.
At the mont, so players were gathering around the teleportation circle in Sand Dust Town, preparing to head to the Tower of Pantheons. Their chatter reached Huang Yi’s ears.
"Bai Changtao, which guild do you think will take over Dragon City?"
"It’s hard to say. But judging by the current situation, among the several guilds amassed outside Dragon City, the Undying Guild has the highest chance, especially since it has the brothers Unbeaten and Nonexistence. They’re among the top fighters in the China region! Then there’s Eternal Myth—their guild leader, Eternal Road, is also a high-level player on the leaderboards."
"I personally think Wind Kingdom has the best shot, established by Ice Wind Water Soul. He was in the top ten on the leaderboards before slipping but is still not to be underestimated. What’s more, he’s good friends with Feng Zhi. Ever since Instakill led the breakout of six hundred thousand players from Dragon City, Feng Zhi has surprisingly changed his strategy. Rather than breaking out, he’s stayed put in Dragon City, taking control of the city. Shortly after that, Ice Wind Water Soul happens to establish Wind Kingdom. They could have already made arrangents in advance to seize Dragon City. Once Ice Wind Water Soul’s group gets the War Flag in there, that city is as good as theirs. After all, anyone else going there would face their siege and couldn’t take it over, and even if they did, their War Flag would be destroyed. Only Ice Wind Water Soul’s n could enter unscathed."
"That’s not necessarily true. Have you forgotten Instakill? Initially, he took on Feng Zhi and his three hundred and thirty thousand n alone, wiping them clean. And just tonight, Instakill has created the eleventh guild in China. Naturally, he’d have his eye on Dragon City, this delectable prize. He’s bound to step in, and once he does, the situation will be up in the air..."
Through the conversation of these few people, Huang Yi quickly gained a general understanding of the current situation in Dragon City.
It seed that several guilds all wanted to take over Dragon City, but because the Skeleton Ocean outside of Dragon City had yet to recede, making a breach would require a great effort. The guilds were mutually restraining each other, with no one willing to make the first move and risk letting others profit from their work.
Additionally, sothing that Huang Yi had not expected was that Feng Zhi and his allies were still holed up in Dragon City. Now it appeared that they were plotting sothing, just as the others had discussed. It was very possible that they had already negotiated with Ice Wind Water Soul to take over the place.
Huang Yi could see that his upcoming quest to seize Dragon City would not be peaceful; he was likely to face another large-scale slaughter.
Without delay, he imdiately left Sand Dust Town and sped towards Dragon City.
