Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

More than an hour had passed.

At the edge of the Misty Forest…

An enormous White Dragon and a Black Dragon were traversing the forest with great difficulty. The speed of the two dragons was extremely slow.

This did not conform to the usual understanding of dragons.

The Black Dragon was seriously injured, leaving a trail of pungent blood wherever it went.

One had to know that the dragon’s blood contained the aura of a high-level creature. Therefore, many other creatures fled from this forest area.

This was because the dragon’s blood naturally carried the pressure of a high-level creature. Those low-level creatures were born with instinctive fear and would run away from high-level creatures.

White Dragon was helping the Black Dragon and had almost exhausted its physical strength. If there was no rescue, the two dragons would not be able to hold on for too long.

The entire Misty Forest was filled with dangerous traps. If they were not careful, they would lose their lives.

As a powerful race of this Otherworld, dragons usually flew high in the sky. Of course, they did not know that there were many traps waiting for them below the ground.

Even if the Ice Dragon’s defense was amazing, once it was trapped, it would starve to death.

In the forest, the two dragons moved very slowly. The Black Dragon’s condition was getting worse, and the White Dragon’s physical strength was about to reach its limit.

Suddenly, the two dragons triggered a trap on the ground, and they fell into it. It was a trap set up long ago.

It would not be long before the natives of the Misty Forest came to the trap to kill their prey. It was unknown how the natives would react when they saw the two dragons in the trap.

In this Otherworld, the natives had powerful innate abilities. Unlike humans who had transmigrated to the other world, the natives were naturally strong.

About half an hour later, a group of strange-looking creatures appeared not far from the trap. Each of them had a huge body, and their upper limbs were very strong.

They noticed that the trapped had been triggered, and the camouflage used to hide the trap had disappeared, which meant that prey had fallen into the trap.

According to their usual experience, these natives did not immediately jump into the trap. This was because they did not know what kind of prey had fallen into the trap. If they entered rashly, their lives would also be threatened if they encountered powerful creatures.

The usual method was that these aborigines would wait patiently for a while on the ground outside the trap. Sometimes, they would send their forest black wolves into the trap.

The black wolves were very huge, more than five meters long. This kind of native species in the Misty Forest ran extremely fast and was very destructive.

The aborigines spent centuries to finally tame this wild creature.

Under the command of the aborigines, the black wolf jumped into the trap. The depth of the trap was about dozens of meters, enough to fit an entire dragon.

Not long after the black wolf jumped into the trap, a low roar came from the deep black trap. The aborigines who stayed on the ground suddenly realized that the creature they were hunting was different from usual.

They seemed to have heard this cry from somewhere, but they could not recall it at the moment.

Just as the aborigines were confused, the black wolf’s terrified howl came from the trap.

The sound was ear-piercing, proving that the black wolf was suffering from great fear.

This kind of situation was extremely rare. In the entire Misty Forest, there were very few powerful creatures that could make the black wolf feel afraid.

Even if it was a very high-level giant lizard, the black wolf would not show such fear even if it could not defeat it.

Finally, the aborigines on the ground realized that the trap was hunting a very powerful creature. If this was not handled properly, everyone would lose their lives.

For safety reasons, the aborigines began to take out a nearly transparent liquid from the bag they carried. This was the venom of the giant wasps in the Misty Forest. It was very difficult to collect this venom.

The venom of the giant wasps was filled in exquisite containers. This was all the stock of the aborigines. They decided to use a part of the venom of the giant wasps.

However, just as the aborigines opened the container and were ready to pour the venom into the trap, a loud dragon’s roar sounded in the air not far away.

Roar!

The dragon’s roar was accompanied by a vibration in the air as it flew across the ground at an extremely fast speed. The aborigines were all creatures from the Otherworld, so they were born with an innate fear towards these high-level creatures.

The leader of the native aborigines was obviously trembling when he spoke.

“It’s, it’s a dragon, it’s a giant dragon!”

Even before the leader spoke, the other aborigines had already guessed that it was the dragon’s roar.

They lowered their bodies and crawled on the ground, panting heavily.

The best thing to do when encountering a dragon was to play dead. This was a method that their ancestors had passed down from generation to generation.

However, none of the aborigines had tried to verify if this method worked. This was because those aborigines who might encounter a dragon had never returned.

A moment later, a huge black shadow enveloped the area.

Those aborigines who were crawling on the ground did not even dare to breathe. They could only tighten their bodies and try their best not to tremble.

However, this was completely useless. A giant Red Dragon landed to the ground. The giant Red Dragon was very close to those aborigines. The giant dragon also saw the entrance of the trap.

Its huge head shook as it walked towards the trap. Every time the dragon walked, it would cause the ground to shake violently. At the same time, it would shake the bodies and minds of the natives.

This fear was too great. These natives were scared to the point of paralysis, and yellow urine flowed out from between their legs.

The pungent smell was captured by the dragon with a keen sense of smell. The Red Dragon usually stayed comfortably in a castle, with servants tending to its every need. It had never encountered such a pungent smell before.

Very soon, the thick dragon tail swept away, and those aborigines who were crawling on the ground were sent to meet God.

This was the consequence of the huge difference in biological levels.

The Red Dragon shook its big head and walked to the edge of the trap. Blinking its red eyes, it saw two dragons that were just like it lying inside the trap.

The Red Dragon opened its mouth wide and used a language that only dragons could understand, calling out to its two companions.
