Tales of The Mighty Dragonair

"Clovert sent one of the mages with him. He said he raided part of this group, and despite him acquiring some ores, these enemies seemed to call for reinforcements, using strange birds as the means of communication. This bird headed towards the mountains at our back."

Arthur took the ores and glanced at them for a moment, before saying:

"Tell him not to worry, there is a garrison there, and I have already sent my scorpion to deal with them."

The words of Arthur picked their interest, as they already received his warning about these hidden enemies a long time ago. "Will we move against them?" Amelia asked.

"Not yet," Arthur replied, "we first need to solve a problem, then we can move to clear them out later," he then closed his eyes, channeled his own energy, and sent a wisp into one of the ores, inspecting it.

He was immersed in examining the ore, and he didn't notice that a shape of a dragon appeared around his body at this moment, with both eyes opened, closely observing everyone in extreme vigilance, making everyone feel extremely shocked and panicked.

"As I expected…" he was in the middle of his words, before he noticed the strange expression of fear over their faces. "What's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me in such a way?" he asked, as he noticed their fearful look towards him.

"Ah, nothing!" Amelia had the courage out of all of them to reply. Arthur shook his head, while the others exchanged glances, wondering what just happened here.

"The myth of these monsters dwelling under the water is a lie," Arthur then dropped this matter, as he glanced over Geunin and said to him, making him forget his fear, and look in doubt towards Arthur, who raised the piece of ore in hand high in the air, as he added:

"This is an ore with some elixir added to it. this elixir is something I knew of, as it's used to enrage all the monsters in a certain area, driving them berserk, to attack any living creature around them."

Arthur didn't say everything he knew, as this potion was only part of a bigger one, a potion that was used to tame monsters.

First this elixir was used to make monsters addicted to it, then another potion was used to control the monsters.

Arthur doubted those warriors here knew already of this. However, he also had more ways, better ones, to utilize the basis these warriors had laid for him.

In front of him, two options presented themselves, one to make an antidote to this potion, and the second was to complete the potion by adding the missing part of it.

Despite that, he knew another solution, a better and far more worthy one to try, and he had also a use for that solution to serve his plans in better ways.

As for Geunin, he was so shocked by Athur's words, as he never thought the great clans would be this dirty and enslave the whole world under a reign of lies and terror!

"Go out now, start working. We won't stop working day or night, and leave this matter to me," Arthur said, as he decided what he would do next, before turning to Lily as he added, "stay close, as soon I would need your help."

They just nodded, before they left him and started cooperating with Geuning to start the grand building plan. There were twenty thousand villagers here, and all of them would take roles in this huge project.

As for Arthur, he knew the other five villages would greatly help in hurrying the process, however he had an urgent matter to solve right now, then he would be free to go to these villages, and subdue them all.

"Let's see, this elixir must be highly concentrated in the water already, so I need to make a concentrated, high quality potion of mine."

He muttered to himself, as he already was thinking of using the basis here and turned the tables to his benefit.

What he planned to do was to add a potion that would make these aquatic monsters enter the evolution phase forcibly. To complete the evolution, however, they were needed to attack each other, eat other monsters' meat and grow.

Eventually, a handful of them would remain and evolve to higher levels. The final level of growth varied according to the quality of the potions used, and the number of monsters participated in this process.

"Let's play it big then, it's time to use part of that heavenly treasure I had," he nodded as he closed his eyes and entered his consciousness into his ring. Inside, there was the huge carcass of the dead monster, the large number of silent snake eggs, and finally the remaining piece of the heavenly treasure.

'Let's take half of it just to be secured,' he muttered to himself, as he cut half of this treasure, and took it somewhere else in his ring.

He didn't risk taking it out, as he would be faced with extreme risk of instigating all the monsters in the forest and river. So, he decided to leave this treasure there for a while, before opening his eyes, taking his cauldron out, his ores, his explosive oil, and many variable materials from his ring.

He also took out parts of the bronzed giant flesh and blood. He also took out many fiery ores, the highest grade one, but he didn't throw them all on fire, as he left the cauldron to get hot, while he waved towards Lily as he instructed:

"Take some villagers and mages with you, and bring to me huge amounts of water."

He must use a sample of that potion in his making, or else his potion might fail eventually to produce the desired results. Lily glanced strangely at him, before she went to do her task.

As for him, he took out a huge pile of materials, these which he acquired from the great clans. There were a huge variety of materials in his rings right now, and he just selected randomly from them, as all the materials piled there were high grades.
