Western Fantasy Lord: Starting with Daily Intelligence

Chapter 106 Lightning Strike

"etc!"

A voice suddenly rang out, stopping the soldiers from releasing their bowstrings.

The officer turned around and saw Ophelia approaching with a young-looking nobleman. He quickly bowed and said, "Lady Ophelia."

Ophelia hummed in agreement, then said, "Let them in."

She and Connors were talking in the office when she suddenly heard someone calling Connors' name outside. She came over to check and saw what had just happened.

The officer bowed his head: "Yes, sir."

North Gate Office.

Dominic and Bianca were sitting on the sofa, still shaken, when they saw Connors and a very beautiful older woman enter. He immediately stood up: "Connors, please save my dad, he, he..."

..

Seeing Dominic's face turn red with anxiety, his hands gesturing wildly, and his words coming out incoherently, Connors comforted him, "Don't worry, it's safe here. Speak slowly."

With his comforting words, Dominic gradually calmed down.

Next, through his explanation, Connors gradually understood the sequence of events.

Three dragonmen suddenly arrived at the tribe today and immediately started fighting, seriously injuring Gaoji. They threatened to find him and Vivian. Dominic and Bianca had sneaked out to play, which saved them from disaster. They then immediately came to inform him.

At this moment, three dragonmen were lying in wait at the Green Ox tribe, waiting for him to fall into their trap.

Connors frowned and glanced at Ophelia, who was sitting behind her desk, calmly drinking tea and watching the show.

We can't trouble Ophelia with this anymore. We've already bothered her too many times. If we have to ask her to solve even such trivial matters, she'll see through us.

"Okay, I understand. I'll go there. Wait for me here until then," Connors said.

"Connors, I want to go too!"

"Me too!"

Dominic and Bianca immediately stood up, ran over and grabbed his clothes, stubbornly insisting.

Connors frowned and snapped, "Wouldn't you just be making things worse? You stay here and I'll take care of everything perfectly."

"No! Those three bastards beat up my dad! I want revenge!" Dominic said bitterly.

Connors looked helpless. He secretly glanced at Vivian and gave her a signal. She immediately understood and came over, patting both of them on the shoulder.

yah~

A faint electric current traveled from his hands and feet to Dominic and Bianca, causing them to suddenly stiffen, their hair to stand on end, their eyes to roll back, and they to faint.

With a sigh, Connors laid the two of them down on the sofa and said, "Your Excellency, I'll trouble you to take them in until I return."

"Can."

Ophelia nodded slightly, and Connors nodded in agreement. Then, she led Vivian to the stable, mounted Flying Feather, and rode out of the city.

This time, instead of taking the main road, he went straight into the dense forest, scraping against the branches as he approached the location of the Green Ox tribe.

Gradually, the gaps between the branches ahead began to open up, and Connors pulled on the reins and stopped at the edge.

At the entrance to the Qingniu tribe, two towers were blackened and covered with traces of burning.

On the ground of the tower, there were two charred remains, as if something had burned there before, and wisps of smoke were still rising from the ground.

There was no sign of anyone, and the body Dominic mentioned was gone. It had probably been cleared away, waiting for me to come back so they could launch a surprise attack... Connors thought to himself.

"Lord Connors, should we just storm in?" Vivian asked in a low voice, her tone revealing barely suppressed excitement.

This was her first time fighting alongside Lord Connors.

Connors shook his head: "No, even as guardian knights, the dragonmen's combat power should not be underestimated. Their racial potential is no weaker than yours. We are at a disadvantage in both combat strength and numbers, so we cannot force our way in."

He had seen information about dragonkin in the materials provided by Ophelia. Currently, the only remaining large-scale inhabitants in the Chaotic Lands are the Crimson Dragons, and the strongest among the Crimson Dragon tribes seems to be only at the level of Earth Knights, with the main fighting force being Guardian Knights.

Connors pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up. "I've got it!"

Lan lay on the roof of a thatched house, yawning boredly and stretching like a wildcat. Her wheat-colored skin reflected the sunlight. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye and turned to look in the direction of the village entrance.

A human male walked in with a puzzled look on his face, looking around with a confused and bewildered expression.

Lan paused for a moment, then excitedly slapped the thatch twice with her tail. She nimbly leaped down from the roof and landed beside her two companions, eagerly exclaiming, "Boss, Gabriel, the target has appeared!"

Xavier, the dragonman known as the boss, raised his tail, his face showing surprise: "So fast?"

After a moment's thought, he made a decisive decision: "Let's go!"

Connors was walking along the road of the Blue Ox tribe when the door of a house next to him suddenly opened a crack, and a head peeked out. After looking around furtively, the head waved to him.

Upon arriving, they heard the Green Ox tribesman nervously say, "The chieftain asked me to tell you that three members of the Crimson Dragon tribe have arrived and are waiting for you. You should hurry and leave before they spot you, or it will be too late."

Connors felt a warmth in his heart, but he couldn't leave yet. He exaggeratedly raised his voice and said, "What? What did you say? I didn't hear you? Say it again!"

Green Ox Clan: "???"

He was stunned. After realizing what was happening, he hurriedly waved his hands and gestures, trying to get Connors to keep his voice down so as not to attract attention.

However, Connors ignored him, bending over and feigning listening, then loudly and dramatically said, "Speak louder—ah—I didn't—hear—you—say—a single word!"

Green Ox Clan:

'

'

He looked at him with an expression that said, "You're out of your mind," and slammed the door shut.

Huh? It seems he's upset... Connors scratched his head sheepishly.

At that moment, he seemed to suddenly realize something, and turned around. Three dragonmen were already standing on the street behind him, looking down at him with disdain.

Connors covered his mouth, feigning surprise: "Who are you?"

Xavier frowned slightly, noticing that Connors was alone and the white tiger was not with him.

He stepped forward: "Hand over that white tiger, and I'll spare your life so you can return to Steel Dragon."

"What White Tiger breed? I don't know anything about it," Connors said, confused.

Bairiel sneered: "Humans are indeed a race full of lies. Your words may deceive people, but your scent cannot. That White Tiger was by your side not long ago, and you are covered in her scent."

Really? Vivian doesn't have such a strong body odor, does she? I remember she takes showers all the time... Connors wondered to himself.

Seeing that he remained silent, Bailier snorted coldly: "I think you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin."

With that, he conjured a ball of flame in his hand and shot it directly at Connors. The flame wasn't very powerful; it was just enough to cripple Connors.

Connors tapped his toes, and an ice wall rose in front of him, blocking the flames.

After blocking for a few seconds, the ice wall began to melt little by little like ice cream. Xavier's expression suddenly changed, and he grabbed Lan and Bailier by the collar, pulling them to the side.

The next second, a thick torrent of ice shot out from beside the ice wall, freezing the frost on the ground with crackling sounds.

Seeing the three people dodge, Connors stopped his Frost Roar and exhaled a wisp of soft white breath.

Xavier twisted his waist, causing his body to spin, and flung Lan and Bailier over.

Just in time!

Connors condensed frozen energy in his hands into a long icy spear, which he used to send Bairiel flying. Then, he stomped his foot, and sharp ice spikes shot out from the ground towards Lan.

Lan's expression changed, and flames erupted from her body, forming a protective shield to defend against the ice spikes.

While Connors was dealing with the two, Xavier had somehow appeared behind Connors, pulled back, and raging flames covered his entire arm as he slammed it down at Connors.

Flame Dragon Fist!

A fiery dragon snaked its way toward Connors.

Feeling the scorching heatwave, Connors' expression changed slightly. Before he could react, he was sent flying with a loud bang.

Bang bang bang bang... The figure flew through the air, crashing into a forest in succession.

"Hiss..." He pushed away the pile of trees that were pressing down on him, wincing in pain.

If he hadn't used freezing air to condense a layer of armor on his body at the crucial moment, this attack would definitely have caused severe burns.

But before he could catch his breath, a figure crashed through the earth, galloping from afar and arriving in the blink of an eye.

Bairiel leaped into the air and descended from the sky, his fists, which had transformed into molten lava, crashing down with the force of Mount Tai.

Before anyone arrived, the sweltering wind had already set off.

Connors dodged the meteor-like attack by leaping to the side in a sorry state.

But the other two didn't give him any time to adjust. The warlike instincts in the dragonman's bones were activated, and they launched a fierce attack on Connors with excitement and fervor.

Bang bang... Several people's fists and feet turned into afterimages, intertwining fiercely at an extremely fast speed.

Since entering the realm of Guardian Knight, Connors has been diligently cultivating without the slightest slackening. He studies the secret techniques he has collected in his study every day, accumulating a large amount of experience points. All he needs is a satisfying battle to transform these nutrients into a part of himself.

The people inside the fortress were different; they were all mindful of their status as masters and couldn't go all out in their training with him.

These few red dragons are just right, serving as whetstones for him.

As Connors fought the group, he grew stronger and stronger, and his eyes became increasingly sharp and piercing.

Once again swept away by the ice spear in his hand, Xavier reached out and stopped Lan from rushing forward again.

"What's wrong?" Lan asked, her breathing heavy, her face full of impatience at having her battle interrupted.

Xavier stared at the battlefield between Connors and Bailey, where the intertwined afterimages created a dazzling and unique scene.

"Have you noticed that even though there are three of us fighting him, most of the time he only has to face one person and bear the pressure from just one person?"

Xavier analyzed with a wise look in his eyes.

"So what? His stamina isn't unlimited. We'll just beat him until he's exhausted." Lan waved her hand irritably, and before he could speak, she charged forward again to join the battle.

This time, Xavier restrained the impulses surging through his blood. He remained detached from the battlefield of the three, observing carefully.

After Lan rushed forward, the human took a punch head-on and then slashed Bairiel away with his spear.

Then he turned around and met Lan.

Not long after Bailier regrouped, the same scene played out again, this time it was Lan who was sent flying.

On the field, Connors noticed another person observing from the sidelines, his eyes gleaming, and his heart skipped a beat.

"The timing is right; it's time to steer the conversation toward Vivian."

He stomped his foot heavily, and huge ice spikes sprang up from the ground around them, instantly causing the two to dodge.

This time, Connors didn't linger in the fight, but instead sped off in a certain direction.

"He can't hold on much longer, let's chase after him!" Lan was so excited that her face turned red. Flames rose from the soles of her feet, and she shot out like a rocket, instantly closing the distance between herself and Connors.

Xavier found it strange; the human didn't seem like he was about to collapse.

However, they had a huge advantage, so it was normal for Connors to be defeated and flee. The doubt only flashed through his mind for a moment, and he followed without thinking too much about it.

The dragonmen were very fast, and Connors not only couldn't shake them off, but was also gradually being closed in on.

Now he was completely relieved, no longer worried that they wouldn't be able to keep up.

soon.

After a chase, they arrived at an open area. The surrounding trees were so dense that they were impenetrable, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of branches and leaves, forming a unique floor.

The moment they stepped inside, they sensed something was wrong. It was clearly man-made, but the situation left them no time to think.

Rumble...

Suddenly, dark clouds filled the sky, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

Connors immediately curled his body into a ball as much as possible, with layers of freezing air wrapping around him and spreading outwards, sealing him in a thick ice fortress at its core.

In the jungle, Vivian hid in the shadows, her body crackling with electricity, her eyes blazing with lightning, her pupils like incandescent light bulbs.

She stretched out her hand, aiming it at the three dragonmen from afar. Her hair danced wildly under the unrestrained magic, making her resemble a majestic god who wielded thunder.

With her palm pressed down, Vivian murmured, "Lightning strike!"

"not good!"

The group sensed the magic gathering in the sky and realized something was wrong.

They had just turned around.

next second.

A thick pillar of lightning descended from the dark clouds, like a divine punishment from an ancient god.

In an instant, the three were engulfed in a blinding white lightning.

Xavier gritted his teeth, his body numb and stiff, as destructive lightning continuously ravaged his skin.

Fortunately, the dragon people are physically strong, so they can withstand this level of damage.

This skill is the most powerful of the three skills Vivian acquired, but it also consumes the most energy, almost instantly draining her of all her magic power.

Just when Xavier and his companions thought it was all over, five or six Justice II mines buried beneath the floor of leaves and branches were hit by a powerful impact and detonated instantly.

"boom--!"
