In the castle.
The grayish-blue fog of the undead slowly dissipated.
Mike knew that the team of dragons and the elves had just left. This was the godly teleportation skill of the undead dragon, Caesar.
When he saw this, Mike had another question.
It was clear that the spatial dragon hilt also knew spatial magic. Why did Hilt not activate the teleportation just now?
Logically speaking, Hilt should be more proficient in the use of spatial magic!
After thinking for a while, Mike did not know the reason.
However, he guessed that although Hilt was more proficient in the use of spatial magic than Caesar, if he wanted to teleport, he would probably need to see a place beforehand.
Previously, he had asked Hilt if he could get the coordinates of an underground world, and if he could teleport the entire dragon battle team there.
Hilt’s answer was no.
He could only give up on the idea of teleporting the dragon battle team to the little loli through this method.
…
Underground world.
To the dragon battle team and the nature elves, it was just a blink of an eye. They had arrived at the gnome tribe.
The entire gnome tribe had an orange-yellow atmosphere under the magic torches. The place where they landed happened to be the square below the gnome tribe.
The facilities of the gnome tribe were mainly stone tools. In the corner of the underground square, there were rows and rows of wooden boxes for storing food.
If the gnomes who were working were hungry, they could take out apples, bananas, and other food from the wooden boxes at any time to satisfy their hunger before continuing to work.
However, when the dragon battle team had just arrived, the gnomes had just finished their morning work and were currently praying on a huge altar.
The entire altar was surrounded by tall stone pillars. On top of them was a totem that looked like a dragon.
In the middle of the altar, there were two statues.
One was a huge dragon spreading its wings, symbolizing the soaring of the huge dragon. The other, taller than the huge dragon, was a human-shaped statue.
The human-shaped statue naturally symbolized the Lord of the dragons — Mike!
At this moment, over 1,200 gnomes in the entire gnome tribe were all prostrating in front of the altar. Led by the gnome elder, they were worshipping under Mike’s feet!
The gnomes chanted the speech to the Lord of the dragon in an orderly fashion!
Seeing this scene, the great elf elders Serena, Becky, Imeiya, and the other nature elves were all surprised.
“Do these gnomes all believe in the Lord of the Dragon?”
“A total of 1,200 gnomes. It seems that they worship the Dragon Lord every day and sing praises to him!”
“Wow… What dense power of faith!”
Serena and the nature elf elders all sucked in a breath of cold air.
They had heard of faith before. However, ever since the day they were conceived by their mother, this was the first time they had seen such a large number of believers worship the god of faith!
“Such dense power of faith is definitely a solid foundation for the Dragon Lord to rely on faith to become a god in the future!” Serena took a deep breath and slowly said.
At this moment, Tyrell, the Nightmare Green Dragon, also answered her.
“That’s right. A few days ago, the light of the Dragon Lord enveloped this tribe!”
“The gnomes of this tribe all fell into the arms of the Dragon Lord!”
As Tyrell spoke, he looked at the praying gnomes with a happy expression.
In his eyes, even though gnomes were despicable creatures, they had at least found the right path.
“Mm.” Serena nodded, indicating that she understood.
After hearing this answer, Serena, Becky, Imeiya, and the other elven elders could not help but sigh in their hearts.
Could it be that so many gnomes, like the three fire red dragons back then, had bathed in Tyrell’s rain of light and started devoutly believing in the Dragon Lord?
Just thinking about this… They felt goosebumps all over their backs.
Once again, they realized how powerful the dragon sect was.
Right now, they naturally wanted to believe in the Dragon Lord as well. However, they did not want to forcefully change their faith.
This kind of faith actually made them feel like they had lost their sense of self!
Right at this moment, the gnome elder who was praying heard the commotion over here. He motioned for the believers who were praying to continue praying.
He walked alone in front of the dragon battle team and knelt respectfully on the ground.
“Lord Oracle, you’re here!”
“Yes, the Dragon Lord has ordered us to clear the underground world’s necropolis. He wants to clear the graveyard of the undead. We need you to lead the way,” Tyrell said calmly.
His emotions did not change in the slightest for the gnome elder’s respectful actions.
In his eyes, gnomes were creatures that should be like this.
Or rather… If not for the Dragon Lord asking them to be respectful, they should be arrogant in front of any other creature.
“Lord Oracle, the Dragon Lord has already informed us of this in advance!”
“I’ll lead the way for you now!”
The gnome elder smiled as he led Tyrell and the others forward.
…
Dragon Castle.
The dragon battle team and the nature elves had just left.
Derek brought the earth dragon battle team back to the castle with a full load of resources.
“It’s been hard hunting for such a long time. Derek, bring the earth dragon battle team to rest,” Mike instructed Derek.
There were over 50 earth dragons in the earth dragon battle team, and almost all of them had reached the tier 9 realm.
The only four or five tier 8 earth dragons had also reached the peak of tier 8.
Each of the earth dragons was covered in battle scars.
It was obvious. They wanted to catch up with the seniors of the dragon battle team. In order to let the Dragon Lord’s Dragon castle grow stronger as soon as possible, the earth dragon battle team had experienced another round of tireless hunting and killing.
However, facing Mike’s instructions to rest, Derek knelt on one knee on the ground and said respectfully in a deep voice, “it’s not hard at all! Me, the earth dragon general Derek, along with the earth dragon squad, will fight for the Dragon Lord!”
“For this, we are willing to pour out all the hot blood in our chests and burn with the soul of the earth dragon!”
“This was our mission. We will never say that it is hard!”
“…” The earth dragon general Derek’s words made Mike fall silent.
He looked at the injured earth dragon battle team once again. There was a deep meaning in his eyes.
Previously, due to his strength, he had been paying attention to the dragon battle team.
As time passed, he started to neglect the earth dragon battle team led by Derek.
That was when he did not receive any orders from him.
This team of only 50 earth dragons repeatedly carried out his last order, which was to hunt the monsters in the wild around the Dragon Castle. They continued to hunt tirelessly.
This kind of spirit was extremely valuable!
It also made Mike realize once again that the earth dragon battle team definitely had the potential to be nurtured.
