Chapter 364: Schemes & Recruiting Dragons

-----

Drakon Ignitias received the news about the death of the generals and the entire army of 100 Dragon Soldiers and could only despair.

From what watchers from far away using special tools could see, they were able to see an enormous vortex swallow the entire army and then the three generals who struggled in vain…

"The enemy… they have such a powerful Space Attribute Magic user?! Are the Space Dragons involved into this whole scheme?!" asked Drakon Ignitias, the King of the Ignitias Kingdom.

"We don't know, their faces… we can't recognize them." Said the soldiers.

"This is hopeless… even the Dragon heroes could fail…!" said a scared aristocrat.

"No, we cannot falter… We cannot let them get away with this! I can't simply lose my precious Kingdom! What about my daughter? My family? The people?!" roared Drakon.

"Kufufu… Don't worry, my King, I have the perfect tool for that!"

Suddenly, a figure that has been in silence this entire time spoke!

It was not an aristocrat, but a renewed Alchemist of the Ignitias Kingdom, an old dragon man in the shape of a humanoid, his beard was long and white, and his scales were dry and black.

It was…

"Dragovic? What do you mean?" asked the King.

"I have designed many specimens according to the necessities of the Kingdom, you see… Thanks to your funds and these years of investigation, I've created a series of powerful Specimens… One of them should be capable of fighting against space magic!" said the Alchemist.

"What?!"

Everyone was shocked!

Did their Kingdom had such a weapon?

"Hmm… I knew that investing into you wouldn't be a bad investment… These monsters, although they go against the Righteous Nations Beliefs, are powerful… And could become great weapons!" said the King.

"However, it won't be able to fight alone, the Heroes must join, all of the troops that you can possibly have, King… If we go once more, we have to go all out!" said Dragovic.

"Trusting everything we have in this war?!"

"Are you crazy, Dragovic?!"

"If we do that, we'll be unprotected!"

"Think a bit! I thought you were a genius alchemist…"

"I know that my King will choose the right answer…" said Dragovic.

The King squinted his eyes, he didn't had many other options.

A monster such as the one that swallowed the generals and the dragons with a single spatial attack wasn't normal at all.

There was only one option at the end, escaping, or going all out with the biggest army he could muster.

It was gambling at this point.

"Very well… We are hopeless either way. I will ready my things to escape the moment the war begins to go wrong. If that happens, Dragovic, I'll have you executed before running away with my family!" said the King.

"Yes, my King! I assure you… My creations would never disappoint you! Kufufu…" The Alchemist walked away hurriedly, waving his scaled tail around as he was excited about finally using the monstrous abominations that he has been creating for all these years…

"King, are you sure?!"

"He's right, we don't have many other options…"

"We'll have to ultimately escape at the end…"

"We might as well throw everything we got!"

The Dragons of the Royal Families grew desperate… they had to bet it all against this calamity.

And if things were to go wrong anyways… then, they were just going to escape and live another day!

The King glanced at the window with concern… He was concerned about his family.

Meanwhile, the dawn of a new day came to the Kingdom and the Dark Forest, as Noah's clones finally managed to get through the magical barrier by devouring a bit of it and then slipping inside.

They explored around leisurely, as they glanced at the people inside the Kingdom, many of them seemed to have high bloodlines but lived way too lazily, and didn't developed their power as much as those in the farming villages did through hunting and more…

Due to this, they seemed like easy meals that contained high quality essence within them, EXP bags for Noah's Class Levels…

But the flesh clones contained themselves, as Noah's primary goal was to add all of this people to his subordinates and make them pray for him like his Vampire population, this way, he would get more out of it in the long run through prayers and shared energy from Bloodline Soul.

He had already begun to spread his Vampiric Curse over the Dragons of this world, the first ones to taste it were the Dragons from the village nearest to the forest…

They were all given a cup of his blood, and they all drank it without much problem, it was just a cup of blood after all.

Noah glanced as they began to slowly change, their appearance remained the same in some cases, although some awakened new powers. He noticed that they didn't gained a Blood Core but that their Dragon Hearts became half blood core, gaining a crimson-red color in their jewel appearance.

Not all become Vampire Dragons, in fact, only the Elder of the Village was able to as it seems that his thin royal bloodline which allowed him to turn into an humanoid shape made it possible for him to gain the Vampire Dragon Race!

The other Dragons became Blood Dragons, some even Ghoulish Dragons, and there were a few that became Dragon Zombies, although they didn't became rotten nor as stupid as zombies, they gained Undead-like capabilities.

But most of them gained the power to wield Blood Attribute now, a strange attribute within the world, which seemed to not exist at all until Noah appeared here! Blood Dragons seemed to not exist here!

And while making these alien dragons into new citizens sharing his bloodline, they naturally gained the System as well, and even Classes!

With the assistance of their newfound power, Noah brought them outside again and ordered them to join the blood undead army and fight the draconic monsters to gain essence and cultivate their dragon hearts, alongside leveling up their classes…

As Noah watched this occur through a clone, his real body moved around his Divine Realm, reaching Planet Earth…
