Chapter 144: Was Mike Going to Rescue the Human Captives?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mike looked at the rows of dragons in front of him with solemn expressions, ready to give the order at any time.

In the end, he chose the Undead Dragon Caesar. He naturally made this choice for his own reasons.

There was the matter of detecting the general environment of the elf tribe and the specific situation.

Firstly, because the Undead Dragon Caesar’s strength had reached the king-tier, although the suppression of the dragons against the elf species would be slightly weakened.

However, it would not be a problem for him to defeat three elves of the same tier.

The second reason was that Caesar possessed the aura of the undead. It was the aura of the undead that caused all living things to wither and disappear. It also had the ability to conceal its aura.

With these two points combined, even if Caesar encountered an enemy of the saint-tier, it would definitely be able to escape safely.

“Yes, my Lord! I am willing to gamble my life. I will definitely not let you down!”

The Undead Dragon Caesar, who had always been cold and silent, spoke solemnly to Mike.

This was because from the dragon Lord’s expression, he could feel the importance of investigating the elf tribe to his Lord.

After saying this, he turned around and flapped his dragon wings. Using the aura of the undead, he concealed himself and headed towards the coordinates of the elf tribe that his Lord had sent him.

The elven tribe was on the map. It was very close to the Dragon Castle in a straight line, more than 200 kilometers away.

Even though it was separated by a few mountains, if it was an ordinary soldier, it would take them three days to go back and forth.

However, the dragon could rely on its advantage in flight. With Caesar’s speed, it would probably take about 40 minutes.

It was estimated that before the main army of the gnome kingdom attacked him, the information of the Elven tribe had already been controlled by him.

And once he could conquer it…

Besides obtaining the resources of the elf tribe, Mike also wanted to raise a few elves in the castle. Putting aside the strength of the elves, it was worth it just to look at a beautiful woman.

Mike planned this in his heart and smiled slightly.

At this moment, Tyrell, who had been thinking about the threat of the gnome Kingdom, turned around and asked respectfully.

“Master, from the information you intentionally revealed to the gnome kingdom, the gnome kingdom’s army will probably send troops over soon. What do you plan to do? Do you need us dragons to immediately gather troops to prepare for battle?”

“No need, there’s no need to rush this matter.” Mike shook his head.

In fact, the gnome kingdom seemed to have a lot of troops, and the saint-tier grand elder was also extremely powerful.

However, with Sky City around and hundreds of dragon might cannons bombarding him, the so-called gnome army would only be cannon fodder no matter how many there were.

If the saint-tier grand elder dared to be arrogant, he would definitely be willing to pay the price of a thousand energy stones to teach him a lesson with a huge dragon power cannon.

There was no need to fear the invasion of the entire gnome kingdom.

…

After instructing the Red Lotus Fire Dragon Flosa and Azure Demon Dragon Hilar to hunt down the surrounding forces, Mike was once again free.

He casually opened the hyperspace chat channel and found that the chat channels had all exploded.

[F*ck, the army of the gnome kingdom in the Dark Forest is already so powerful?]

[Interrogation? What interrogation? It can’t be about the information of us Castle Lords, right? After all, it’s a fact that the alien races in this world have a great hatred towards Castle Lords!]

[If that’s really the case, the low-level Castle Lords are trembling in silence. Those Castle lords who were captured and brought back to the gnome kingdom, please don’t be my good friends. Otherwise, it’ll be over if you sell my castle address…]

[Uh… What are you guys talking about? I don’t understand !]

[Of course, it’s about the matter of the gnopme kingdom’s army suddenly starting to capture the Castle Lords and bring them back to the kingdom in the Dark Forest!]

[Recently, several Castle Lords sent messages in the channel about their castle being attacked by the gnome army. Strangely, after the gnomes sieged their castle, they didn’t kill the Castle Lord. Instead, they seemed to want to bring him back to the kingdom for interrogation. This also resulted in the Castle Lord being able to send messages in the chat channel after being captured!]

[What a confusing operation. Sending a distress message at this time, do you really expect a Castle Lord in the Dark Forest to take the risk of being targeted by the gnome kingdom to save this group of people?]

Countless people were guessing what the gnome kingdom’s strange actions were for, but no one gave an accurate answer.

In the end, the Castle Lord also sent a message, and the hyperspace chat channel exploded once again.

[Haha, this is hilarious. Castle Lords of the Dark Forest, now is the time to test the unity of our Castle Lords. Aren’t you going to gather your troops and save them?]

[Those who say you are going to save them, you have nothing to do with it. Do you want to add fuel to the fire? Why aren’t you going to save them?]

[That’s the gnome kingdom! The kingdom! Not the gnome tribe!]

[That’s f*cking ridiculous. They were captured by the gnome kingdom’s army, and they still expect us, the masters of low-and middle-level castles, to save them?]

[What I said before was right. It wasn’t easy for me to become a tier 7 militia. I reckon that if I were to face the gnome kingdom’s army, my ashes would be scattered! If I really wanted to save them, I think I would need the cooperation of the top Castle Lords in the Dark Forest!]

[No, we, the top Castle Lords, have announced that we will not participate in this mess.]

[Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter. If we really meet the gnome Kingdom, all the Top Castle Lords are afraid that their forces will be damaged, so they don’t dare to make a sound! ]

[Very good. The name of your castle is ‘Home of the Wild Beasts’, right? I’ll remember it.]

[Hehe, so what if you’re threatening me? I’m telling the truth! Even those top-tier soldiers of yours are having a hard time facing a king-tier enemy. Facing the army of the gnome kingdom, they’ll be crushed to pieces. Moreover, the strongest person on the other side might not only be a king-tier. If you’re not satisfied, why don’t you come and bite me?]

[Actually, after all that talk, I feel that there’s still someone who can save these Castle Lords!]

[Who?]

[Mike! He just happens to be in the Dark Forest. Don’t you think that even if there are very few creatures like the giant dragons, they can still kill a large number of gnomes in one breath? They are good at war!]

[Indeed, if it is Mike, there is a high possibility that he can save these people. Moreover, it is not a waste of the gnome kingdom. You have discussed so much, didn’t you think of this before?]

[Don’t mention it. Those Castle Lords who were captured just now cried and shouted for help to Mike in the channel, but Mike didn’t show up at all, and the friend request didn’t have any response!]

[As expected of big brother Mike, he’s always so cold and aloof! In fact, there are too many people who ask him for help every day. He probably won’t take this matter seriously either!]

[How could this be the same as usual? This is related to the fight between the lord of the Dark Forest castles and the two forces of the gnome kingdom. Mike is the highest combat power of our Castle Lords. Why doesn’t he step forward?]

[Yes, our comrades have been captured. Why doesn’t he step forward? isn’t he afraid of arousing public anger?]

[Uh… Forgive me for being blunt. To put it bluntly, what right does big brother Mike have to help you? What benefits can you bring him?]

[If I were Mike, I won’t help you either. It would be fine if I put it nicely, but look at what your Castle Lord of the Dark Forest is saying? I’m dying of laughter!]

From the beginning of the discussion about the Castle Lords being captured by the gnome kingdom’s army, it had evolved into the topic of why Mike did not save these people, and whether or not he should save them.

After reading the messages, Mike finally could not help but laugh.
