Chapter 358 Black Dragon Goes Berserk!_2
Lance saw that he had disturbed the guards of Saint Blue City, so he dismissed the idea of continuing to test the strength of the "Book of Wisdom" until he left Saint Blue City, where he would properly assess the extent of power the Goddess of Wisdom had imbued in the "Book of Wisdom."
The nine huge black and red Thunder Arrays vanished, and the violent and ferocious Thunderstorm wreaked havoc for a moment before dissipating into thin air.
Only some faint electric arcs remained in the void.
The "Book of Wisdom," floating in the void, slowly descended into the hands of the silver-haired middle-aged man.
The silver-haired middle-aged man, Hammond, looked at the black and red thunder within the pages of the Book of Wisdom and smiled satisfyingly.
The Black Dragon's Power of Thunder was more ferocious than the Thunder Giant Dragon Erinna's Power of Thunder.
This was something that even he found a bit shocking.
It was not strange that the Black Dragon could wield the Power of Thunder; rather, it was strange that the Black Dragon's Power of Thunder was stronger than that of the Thunder Giant Dragon, which naturally had superior control over thunder; this was somewhat absurd.
No wonder Princess Sophia had used the Summoning God Technique when fighting the Black Dragon.
Austin said that the Black Dragon also knew human martial arts, and the strength of its dragon body had reached a level that even Divine Artifacts could not break.
Coming to Saint Blue with Austin this time, besides wanting to see for himself how strong the Black Dragon was, he also wanted to see if he could trap the Black Dragon inside the "Book of Wisdom."
The "Book of Wisdom" in his hands could seal Primordial Beasts; naturally, it could also seal dragons.
"Are you Austin's knight?"
"Yes, but I would prefer you to say I am Austin's partner because Austin doesn't like to hear others call me his knight, although it is the truth. For the sake of this old fellow's feelings, I'd prefer if you referred to me as [Austin's partner] when describing my relationship with Austin."
Hammond closed the "Book of Wisdom," his tone gentle, showing no hostility toward the Black Dragon; he harbored no immediate animosity toward the Black Dragon.
"My name is Hammond."
"You may call me Black Dragon for now. As for my name, you'll be entitled to know it only when you defeat me."
"Then by tonight, we should know your name."
"Can I borrow your 'Book of Wisdom' for a while?"
"To be honest, I really don't dare to lend you the 'Book of Wisdom'; I fear I might not get it back. If you don't mind, though, I could offer you a one-day tour of the 'Book of Wisdom.'"
Tsk.
So he wants to seal this Black Dragon inside the "Book of Wisdom"?
Don't say... the "Book of Wisdom" actually possesses that function.
He wanted to borrow the "Book of Wisdom" to research and see if he could use the Dragon Language to create a "Book of the Black Dragon" as a means of self-defense for the dragon cubs.
It seems now that, to borrow the "Book of Wisdom," he might need to assume the identity of the Abyssal Demon Race and snatch this "Book of Wisdom" from the hands of this human, Hammond.
Several figures appeared one after another in the sky above Saint Blue City, the Bronze Giant Dragon Melbourne, the Nightmare Evil Dragon Koln, and Sophia appearing in succession above Saint Blue City.
Sophia saw Erinna and Austin, waved to them, and flew over.
"Are you sure?"
"Confirmed, the Black Dragon that attacked me is the same Black Dragon here, not the human Lance."
"That's a relief."
Sophia smiled; she had been beaten by the Black Dragon in a previous life, and now that the Black Dragon had successively beaten both Austin and Erinna, she felt no psychological burden about ganging up on the Black Dragon in the upcoming battle.
Not to beat it to death, just to give the Black Dragon a painful beating.
"Erinna, I hope in the upcoming fight, you can defeat this Black Dragon with a single sentence."
The Bronze Giant Dragon Melbourne saw Erinna and Austin and recalled how these two had previously schemed against him.
In their words, the human Lance wasn't very strong, yet, he ended up being suppressed by Lance.
As for the Black Dragon... this fellow's strength could probably also suppress him.
"No way, Melbourne, you haven't beaten that viscount from Saint Blue, have you?"
"Hehe, Austin, after you finish your battle with the Black Dragon, let's find an opportunity to test each other."
"Forget it, forget it, you are already a father and a Pureblood Dragon. Fighting and killing isn't good. Alright, alright, we can talk more later, now my conversation partner is the Black Dragon."
Sophia nodded, and with a flap of her wings, flew beside the head of Dragon Erinna. Seeing this, Hammond also flapped his wings and flew beside Austin.
"Black Dragon, you still have a chance to apologize. Just say, 'Sorry, I was wrong,' to Austin and Erinna, and then your opponent in the following fight will only be me.
If you don't say it, you will be facing all four of us in the coming fight."
"All four of you come on together then. Austin and Erinna, both have been beaten by me, and your fight with me that night, you were just lucky that I got distracted. Otherwise... you might have experienced something you experienced in your previous life."
One versus four.
If he couldn't beat them, he would run.
He wouldn't fight to the death.
"Then let's head to the area where we fought that night, and hope you won't be the ones crying after."
"We'll see who ends up crying."
"Black Dragon, I join this battle as Knight Austin. This battle is unfair to you, but... if you are as strong as Austin says, then I think this lineup is the greatest respect we can show you."
Lance smirked, an honest Knight with a hint of cunning, almost wanted to put him in the Book of Wisdom, talking about respect...
It didn't matter, he also had his eyes on the Book of Wisdom.
Lance soared into the sky with a flap of his wings.
Sophia flew onto the back of Erinna, who carried Sophia and chased after Lance into the horizon.
Austin also carried Hammond and followed.
The Young Dragon carrying Er Gouzi, followed by the Bronze Giant Dragon Melbourne and the Nightmare Evil Dragon Koln, flew towards the battle area chosen by Lance and the others.
By the time she reached the area, the battle between Lance, Thunder Giant Dragon Erinna, Golden Giant Dragon Austin, Sophia, and Hammond had already begun.
In that void, various Arrays alternated appearances.
Black and red Thunder clashed with purple and blue Thunder. Golden Giant Dragon Austin Breathes Dragon's Breath, while Lance cast Ice Magic, freezing Austin's Dragon Breath.
Knight Hammond, holding the Book of Wisdom, stood on Austin's dragon back, flipping through the Book of Wisdom. One after another, mighty Primordial Beasts roared, flying out of the book, charging at Lance.
The first to charge at Lance was a gigantic King Kong with a body as large as a small hill.
King Kong, beating its chest, leaped up, swinging its huge fists to attack Lance's dragon head.
Lance Breathes Dragon's Breath, King Kong punched the Dragon's Breath to burst into flames, and at the moment it fell, a huge golden Array appeared under King Kong's feet. Using it, King Kong leaped up again, swinging its fists at Lance.
This time Lance did not Breathe Dragon's Breath. He roared into the sky, and his 300-meter-long dragon body instantly swelled to over ten thousand meters.
Seeing this scene, King Kong, who had jumped up swinging its fists at Lance, showed a look of horror in its eyes. When it tried to flee, a gigantic Dragon Claw that covered the sky grabbed it.
Lance instinctively wanted to squeeze hard, but at the crucial moment, he restrained this violent emotion. If he really squeezed hard, this King Kong would be instantly crushed by him.
He threw the King Kong high up in his Dragon Claw and then punched, sending King Kong flying into the sky, turning it into a shooting star that disappeared into the horizon.
Meanwhile, various ferocious Primordial Beasts running out from the Book of Wisdom, seeing this scene and facing the ten thousand-meter-tall Black Dragon, instantly lost their desire to fight. Their attack posture, in a moment, turned into running.
They competed to be the first to run back into the Book of Wisdom, fearing being swallowed by the huge Black Dragon if they were a second late.
Run?
Can they escape?
Lance grinned, lightly flicked his Dragon Claw, and more than a dozen Primordial Beasts that ran out from the Book of Wisdom were swept up into the sky, becoming shooting stars.
Golden Giant Dragon Austin watched the huge Black Dragon Lance, stunned; such a massive Black Dragon could swallow a Pureblood Dragon with a single bite.
It appeared that Black Dragon hadn't used his full strength when he beat him before.
Lance caught Austin's gaze, grinned, and flicked his finger towards Austin's dragon head. Accompanied by the sound of tens of defensive Arrays shattering and the noise of paper tearing, it barely stopped Lance's flick.
