Era of Castles: Starting with 99 Dragon Eggs Novel - Chapter 22
Chapter 22: Dragon Attack!
Mike closed the chat with the little loli.
Then, he summoned Tyrell and Barr to continue hunting wild monsters.
All the food and equipment that he had put on the shelf in the [space exchange] had been auctioned off.
Mike looked at the notification of the auction.
In this auction, he had obtained a total of 18,000 units of wood, 14,000 units of stones, and 500 units of refined iron.
Even 720 units of food had been exchanged for 3,000 units of wood and 2,100 units of stone.
Adding them up, he had obtained 21,000 units of wood, 16,100 units of stone, and 500 units of refined iron.
Along with the materials he had previously stored.
In the castle’s warehouse, there were 98,830 units of wood, 32,400 units of stone, and 1,620 units of refined iron.
They were one step closer to upgrading the Dragon King Castle to Dragon King Town.
It could be said that.
Mike was definitely the richest among all the Castle Lords.
No Castle Lord’s reserve resources could compare to Mike’s.
In fact.
Many Castle Lords had not upgraded their castles to advanced level.
Mike was already preparing the resources to upgrade the town.
He was ahead of everyone.
“Phew, I should be able to collect the materials to upgrade the town after the auction in two days!”
Mike thought to himself.
The little loli would be constantly provided with refined iron.
Although there was not much refined iron at the moment, he had already gathered one-tenth of it.
He was advancing step by step.
“My current goal is to upgrade to the level 3 dragon nest first!”
“I have 410 energy stones in my hands, and four of them are already there.”
“I’ve quickly reached the requirements to level up the dragon nest!”
“Tyrell and Barr, put in some effort. Energy stones aren’t a problem, but these strange crystals are still too rare and precious!”
Mike looked at the dragon’s nest and said indifferently.
“Tyrell, Barr, continue hunting!”
“Yes, my Lord!”
No matter what, they had to get 500 energy stones first.
…
Night fell once again.
The light of the blood moon enveloped the entire Otherworld Continent.
Demonic red light poured down, making the originally gloomy forest of extinction even more terrifying.
There were groups of beasts roaring in unison, and night owls crying.
At some point in time.
Dense green light appeared in the dense forest outside the castle.
Barr shot out a flame.
Instantly, the flame appeared, reflecting countless wild monsters.
Black wolves, demonic bears, giant pythons, gray foxes…
During the day, they were killed and fled in all directions.
At night, the Blood Moon Hung High in the sky.
They gathered again, berserk like monsters, eyeing the Dragon King Castle.
There were at least a thousand of them.
There were also a large number of elite-level and commander-level monsters among them.
Along with the ‘night mechanism’.
The strength of the monsters at night had increased threefold.
Even with Barr’s tier 5 strength, it would still be difficult to wipe them out, and there might even be unpredictable risks.
Now, with the protection of the protective shield.
These monsters did not dare to get too close.
But as the days passed.
The light of the protective shield was getting weaker and weaker.
Perhaps when the protective shield disappeared, they would immediately pounce on the Dragon King Castle.
“It seems that we should not ask Barr to go out to hunt at night!”
“Recently, there are more and more monsters in the wild near the castle at night.”
“If there is an accident, it will really not be worth it!”
“Now, the castle only depends on them. It would be painful to lose one.”
“When another dragon hatches, perhaps the risk of hunting at night will be reduced.”
At this moment.
In the distant sky, flames bloomed.
There was a huge figure soaring high in the sky, spewing flames at the same time.
In the flames, a large number of black shadows were turned into ashes.
It was countless small-sized flying monsters that attacked the huge figure after going crazy.
In the end, the bird-type monsters were no match for it and were burned by the group.
Finally, the huge figure won and suppressed the entire forest.
No monster dared to provoke it again.
It flapped its wings and attacked from the sky, appearing in the sky above Dragon King Castle.
It was a huge dragon that was dozens of meters long!
Its entire body was dark red.
Fine dragon scales covered its entire body.
When its wings spread out, it also reached dozens of meters.
The dragon hovered high in the sky, blocking the blood moon and casting a large shadow. It looked down at the Dragon King Castle below.
Its face was ferocious.
Between its breaths, flames spurted out from its mouth and nose.
Its gaze was cold as it stared at Mike, who was standing in the castle yard.
Bloodthirsty and ruthless!
Tyrell and Barr, who were beside Mike, sensed something.
They immediately floated in front of Mike with hostility in their eyes.
They looked at the giant dragons outside the castle. One after another, dragon roars came out of the mouths of the giant dragons!
However, in the end, they did not make a move.
Instead, they flapped their wings and disappeared into the distant horizon amidst the fierce wind.
Tyrell and Barr, who were in the castle, were the same type of giant dragons as them.
Moreover, its strength was only that of tier 5 elite tier boss.
Moreover, Tyrell and Barr were both tier 5.
It might not even be able to fight one-on-one, let alone one-on-two.
Furthermore, the castle had a protective shield, so all of its attacks were useless. It would not harm the castle at all.
It could only choose to leave.
Mike looked at the departing dragon.
“Dragon, it’s the same as my army.”
“This dragon must be a native intelligent creature of the Nirvana Forest. It’s not a monster in the wild.”
“I didn’t expect to see a dragon other than my own army.”
“This dragon’s strength isn’t weak. It should have reached the maturity stage.”
“It was attracted by the Dragon King Castle and came to take a look.”
“But it knew that it couldn’t destroy the castle’s protective shield and wasn’t a match for it, so it left decisively!”
“I have to become stronger!”
“Otherwise…”
“Once the novice period is over, the protective shield will disappear, and this big guy will summon a group of people over. I’m afraid the castle will be in danger!”
However, Mike turned his head and thought.
“Although it’s dangerous, if I can subdue that giant dragon, won’t the strength of my castle increase again?”
“If its strength increases, will it increase the chances of survival in the face of the initial Beast Tide?”
“Isn’t the only reward closer to the strongest castle?”
Mike was constantly thinking about the only reward.
“My lord, there’s no need to worry.”
Barr replied, “That’s just a tier 5 dragon, we’re not afraid of it. When we reach the tier 6 realm, it’ll be easy for us to wipe it out!”
“You’re all dragons, you should be able to subdue it, right?”
“It is still possible to subdue a weaker dragon!”
“After all, there are different species of dragons compared to us. If the opponent’s strength is higher than ours, you will not be able to subdue it!”
Barr and Tyrell said respectfully.
“It seems that my unique species is only limited to the Castle Lord. There are probably powerful dragon creatures on this foreign world continent!”
“If I can subdue all the dragons on this foreign land, won’t I be able to have a huge dragon army and sweep through everything?”
“However, my current strength is still too weak.”
“I can only think about it now!”
