Chapter 107: Invincible

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Augustine walked out of the dense forest and took a few deep breaths. The deep conversation had made him feel very uncomfortable. He did not like dealing with dark warlocks like Makhu Redd, as they gave an oppressing air to him.

As he thought about it, his eyes narrowed. “That Makhu Redd never mentioned before that lives would have to be sacrificed in order to summon a magic formation that is fatal to the Giant Dragon.”

“He deserves to die. He is asking me to send my soldiers to their deaths?” Augustine’s thoughts had caused his face to turn gloomy.

Even though he did not originate from Iron Nation, right now, these people were his soldiers. They were under his lead. He would definitely not allow them to die for nothing.

Even if it was to slay the dragon, he would not kill the goose that laid the golden eggs.

In particular, occupying the City of Dawn and facing the Black Lava Nation were more important issues. Maintaining their military power was even more important. He had to manage his priorities. Slaying the dragon could come later. The Black Lava Nation was now in chaos. It was a one-time opportunity to attack and infiltrate the Black Lava Nation, and if he missed it, the opportunity would not come again.

“Hmm, maybe this would work. We could attract the people of the Giant Dragon and offer them as sacrifice instead!” Augustine picked his eyebrows. For now, this was the only thing he could come up with7. He could not think of many solutions.

But Makhu Redd had said that he had placed a soundproof magic formation at the entrance of the dragon’s cave.

So, as long as the silent mountain started to move, even if the people of the Fire Dragon were all killed, the pig would not awaken. This was also what Makhu Redd meant. But when the time came, they would definitely lose a few soldiers.

Augustine climbed to the top of a tree and looked at the Snow Mountain of the East Sea in the distance. He broke into a grin. “We still have one day.”

William and his team of 2000 elites had finally caught up with the Iron Nation. They stopped exactly at the place where Augustine had chosen to take a temporary rest for the night.

They found the flowers and grass bent on the ground were bent. Some had been uprooted. Cuts had appeared on the surrounding trees, probably the work of some bored soldiers. They had even drawn some inappropriate pictures on the ground using tree branches…

Of course, this was a very common sight. There was no special meaning to this act.

As William followed their path, almost everywhere where they took a rest, they could find many traces of soldiers.

Augustine had led two legions. It was not possible for every soldier among them to be trained very well. Furthermore, in a party of so many people, it became difficult to not leave any traces in the forest.

Even Albert would practice a Battle Energy Cut if he had nothing to do…

The fallen trees were even more obvious.

Of course.

Most importantly, there were no armies chasing William. He did not need to be so cautious. Everyone was well aware as well.

“It does not seem that Augustine has employed any preventive tactics against us. Is he that confident?” William scratched his head. He could not quite understand why their journey was so easy.

Why had Augustine not even left a spy? Or had he left behind something that William had not noticed?

He recalled the memories from his previous life. Not only did Augustine have extraordinary combat power, he had shown excellent resourcefulness after the Iron Nation was extinguished by the darkness. He had established the Freedom Alliance.

But William had forgotten one thing…

No matter whether they were people or NPCs, everyone had to grow to reach heights!

The current Augustine was not what he remembered from the memories, currently, he was simply a proud young man.

He had known Goethe Nasis from a young age. They had established the Freedom Alliance together. Even though not everything was smooth-sailing, they were able to work together and control the Iron Nation in just a few years. How could Augustine not be proud?

Furthermore, Augustine had many epic experts under his wing, and he also had more troops than William.

What did he have to be afraid of?

Furthermore, he had an agreement with Makhu Redd.

Why would Augustine still be afraid?

He had achieved so much at just 28 years old. He had controlled a nation. Why would he not be confident?

It was an obvious thought.

Only complete failure could cause a person to either grow or fall. Augustine had not encountered any fatal setbacks. He had not yet achieved the subtle thinking and the resourcefulness he possessed in his previous life.

Of course,

More importantly, Augustine had never fought with an Elfin legion before.

It could even be said that many human nations in the legendary continent had forgotten the combat power of Elfin troops.

Elves had ruled the Gods’ continent in the second era, but humans ruled in the third!

Humans were the current victors, and winners wrote history.

Many historians had played down the combat power of the elves, which caused many human nations to underestimate the elves.

In the end, some dukedoms, grand duchies, and even some kingdoms could only use history books to understand elves as they did not gain the chance to come into contact with them. They only learned how mysterious the elves were, but not how strong they were…

Of course,

Some powerful grand duchies and empires had definitely experienced the correct version of history. They even remembered the power of the elves. They recognized their strengths and knew their weaknesses. They used their knowledge to ensure that the elves were never able to leave the forest.

After a short rest, William led the 2000 elites and continued chasing Augustine’s troops.

He believed that as long as he did not do anything risky, he would not lose completely.

If they won the fight against the dragon.

He would bring the greatest results in version 1.0. He would build a firm foundation for future versions.

Time was tight.

Lautner led 4500 soldiers in 13 ships, and they traveled along the coastline. They traveled faster than usual. They were about to reach the Snow Mountain of the East Sea.

Their actions were not concealed. They did not dare to enter the deep ocean in these ships,as the large ships that had been built could only be used as large-scale fishing boats. After all, they could not be used as warships.

But they were halfway done with building an epic warship. The basic structure was more or less complete.

It was just lacking…

Dragon bones!

At that moment, Lautner finally understood why William did not use other decent materials to supplement the dragon bones. If this was the case, the epic warship would already be completed.

“Now I get it… His true objective always had been to slay the dragon!” Lautner could not help but clench his fist. His blood boiled.

Slay the dragon!

This was the dream of every single man on the legendary continent!

The glorious name of Brave Dragon Slayer would follow them for the rest of their lives.

He could not imagine when William had hatched this plan.

“Half a year ago, he was looking everywhere for a ship builder. But since we found a legendary ship builder among the Moonlight Elves, only a few large-scale fishing boats have been built…”

“Warships have been built, but the cost of the materials is beyond our imagination!”

As William’s Executive, Lautner understood everything that William knew.

Half a year ago, the City of Dawn had almost 200 thousand gold coins in their stores.

But William spent almost 80 thousand gold coins on the epic warship!

All the materials, Mithril, Bronze, and Iron had been thrown into the building of the warship. Even the expensive Black Hophornbeam was also spent…

William’s thought process was – what if the quality was not good enough?

Make up for it with numbers!

William insisted on making this warship of epic level. He wanted to achieve the limit of what a legendary ship builder could achieve.

It was simple.

The price of this epic warship was more than the worth of half of the City of Dawn.

“On top of such a warship, if we add actual dragon bones after slaying the dragon…” Lautner suddenly understood.

He looked at the Snow Mountain of the East Sea and muttered to himself, “If we can really do that, then this will become a warship invincible in these seas…”
