Chapter 135: Sanctuary Church’s Emergency Measures
“Oww…” The Red Dragon who took a solid punch on the chin felt like his teeth were about to shatter. The punch was not only heavy, but the super strong lightning attack that erupted after hitting him was like a thunder hammer, slamming heavily onto his head, making him dizzy, feeling as if his brains were about to be shaken out.
This was just a Little Dragon, damn it, just a Little Dragon! The Red Dragon roared in disbelief in his heart. The physical punch made him feel like he was facing an Adult Dragon of the same level, and the subsequent lightning attack burst out, bringing power that exceeded that of the punch.
Plus the damage from the electric current, it directly sent him into a long period of dizziness. No matter how frustrated he felt inside, he could only tumble down toward the ground in a daze…
The people in the Campsite stared blankly at the Red Dragon falling from the sky, their expressions as if they had seen a ghost. Holy crap, an Adult Dragon was actually defeated by a Juvenile Dragon—there was a huge gap between youth and adulthood stages!
Each age period for the Dragon Clan had at least several decades of difference. Plus, they were a race that could grow stronger just by sleeping, so spanning a stage meant it was like a child facing a fitness coach—how could they fight?
But now he had actually won, and with just one punch, he knocked out this Adult Red Dragon. What kind of drug did this Little Dragon take to achieve this level? Was he cheating or something!
“That really hurt…” Zheng Yichen looked down at his claw, slightly curling the corner of his mouth. The Magic released in the previous thunderous strike was just a low-level Magic. Currently, he could only grasp a low-level Magic and forcefully squeeze it into his fist, compressing the quality of this Magic to the extreme. Of course, even if that thing was compressed to the limit, holding it wasn’t very comfortable.
It was like grabbing a sea urchin… how sour and thrilling did that feel?
But the benefits of doing this were also huge. A low-level Magic, when compressed to the extreme and then burst out, exerted power that already surpassed mid-level Magic, and wasn’t even worse than some weaker High-Level Magic. The difference was that this was single-target.
The effect? Knocking out that Red Dragon with one punch was the most obvious result. As for the consequences, Zheng Yichen’s claw was still smoking, the paint applied to the Scales was completely burned away, and his whole claw felt numb.
Thud—
The Red Dragon falling from the sky slammed into the ground. Someone had acted to slow down its fall; otherwise, falling from that height would have been enough to seriously injure it. Looking at this unconscious Red Dragon, the Mage who slowed its descent felt helpless. This Red Dragon was called by the Sanctuary Church, and as payment for taking action, the Sanctuary Church gave him sufficient rewards.
Even though he knew he was dealing with a Little Dragon, he didn’t ask for less reward. But this time, he was probably going to lose face big time. Not only did he fail to get things done, but he also got his head smashed by a Little Dragon. In the future, wherever he went, he’d likely be laughed at by his fellow Dragons.
Even if this Little Dragon was really strong!
Seeing the miserable state of this Red Dragon, the Mage shook her head slightly. She didn’t look down on this Red Dragon; the Light Screen in the sky greatly affected the Red Dragon’s power, while that Little Dragon could freely use his own strength. This was an unfair fight from the start…
Anyway, this Red Dragon’s defeat wasn’t unjust.
Considering the Red Dragon’s weight, the arriving handlers couldn’t move it either, so they had to deal with it on the spot. The injuries on the Red Dragon’s arm needed treatment… and they could also collect some of the broken Scales nearby. Dragon Blood could be collected too—if left alone, it would just flow away and be wasted. As for the Little Dragon in the sky,
Before the Light Screen’s structure fully formed, they had no way to interfere. Even if they forced their way up, they wouldn’t perform much better than this Red Dragon; the result would probably be getting smashed too.
Zheng Yichen, flying at the edge of the Light Screen, was weaving Mana Threads. This time, he was weaving a large Magic Rune Array, preparing to cast a large-scale Light Refraction Art. Once this Magic was successfully cast, a thin mirror-like surface appeared in front of Zheng Yichen, distorting the scenery ahead and reflecting the incoming moonlight from another angle.
“…” This scene left the Archbishop of the Sanctuary Church who was watching Zheng Yichen speechless. This Little Dragon’s idea was something else too—using this method to counter the White Moonlight purified by the Light Screen. Although simple and crude, it was extremely effective!
If the Light Screen’s structure fully formed, even if Zheng Yichen used a higher-level Light Refraction Art, he couldn’t refract the slightest bit of Blood Moon’s glow inside. The area illuminated by the formed Light Screen would become an isolating dome. Though invisible and intangible, the White Moonlight that appeared then would block any Blood Moon’s glow from entering.
Anything touching the White Moonlight would be purified by it, unlike now, where the refracted Blood Moon’s glow and White Moonlight collided fiercely, like hot oil poured into water, continuously poured in.
All of this was because that Little Dragon kept damaging the Light Screen, preventing it from ever reaching a perfect structure. The people of the Sanctuary Church could only stare helplessly. Now, the refracted Blood Moon’s glow, though it couldn’t pose a real threat to White Moonlight, would cause extra consumption, reducing the efficiency of White Moonlight eliminating Black Mist.
If he kept causing trouble like this until dawn, with less White Moonlight suppression and plenty of Black Mist left, the Witch’s Power wouldn’t weaken but might even gain extra enhancement. This was absolutely infuriating!
Was this Little Dragon really here just to make people uncomfortable? Especially when some saw him grinning, they gritted their teeth in anger. Damn it, didn’t he know how many casualties a Witch Rampage could cause?
This was practically making an enemy of all living beings!
“Prepare to start the emergency measures,” an Archbishop said with a dark face. Originally, it was a foolproof plan, but now there had been multiple changes, all brought by a Little Dragon he could easily handle under normal circumstances.
As his order was given, some Sanctuary Church members quickly mobilized. They brought out many boxes and took out Crystal Rods, each between one and two meters long. As soon as these Crystal Rods appeared, they started rapidly absorbing White Moonlight.
This action was supposed to happen only after the Light Screen fully formed. But now, due to Zheng Yichen’s interference, the Light Screen couldn’t reach perfect formation. With his meddling, it might even drag on until dawn… So they had to do this earlier.
Since it was hard to form anyway, using special storage tools to absorb White Moonlight and affect its efficiency in purifying Black Mist didn’t matter…
