It was still afternoon in Dusk Valley. After the Crystal Dragon Lair crisis broke out, the Olsylvia Academy boys here began their big retreat. This time, several hundred Crystal Dragons rushed straight out from the Crystal Dragon Lair. Several hundreds of Crystal Dragons more than ten meters long charged over. If a male Savior’s “golden finger” isn’t up to the task, then they wouldn’t dare to fight that.
The Crystal Dragons and the Thunder Lizards belong to the same category of land-based demonic beings that walked on fours. However, the combat power of the Crystal Dragon is stronger. Their attacks are purely physical, not magical. The physical attack power of the Crystal Dragons is comparable to the Golden Dragon Race, but the Golden Dragon Race was not as numerous as the Crystal Dragons. The reproduction of these sub-dragon races is also better than that of the pure-blooded ones.
Now, the army of Crystal Dragons were moving towards the Forest of the Wild. Their target, for the time being, could not be determined. Considering that the participating students in the Forest of the Wild were all girls, they probably won’t be able to stand up to these Crystal Dragons that even the boys were avoiding, so the organizers decided to let the girls withdraw first.
However, the organizers had only just realized that they couldn’t contact the bounty hunters protecting the students at the Forest of the Wild anymore. Their camp had been completely wiped out by the Dark Goblin Warriors in an indirect partnership with Bella, so it would’ve been strange if they were able to contact them. The two men behind Manasvir Empire were each doing their own thing, and this Dark Goblin Warrior attack was also sent by the black-haired Dark God while the bounty hunters sent to spy on the girls were arranged by the blonde God of the Netherworld. It seemed just like some friendly fire scenario.
Nobody had any idea about Bella killing two S-rank Thunder Lizards. The Thunder Lizard was killed by the Dark Tyrant Dragon and no matter how they investigated, nobody would be able to link it back to Bella and the others. However, just killing the bunch of Dark Goblin Warriors alone was enough to earn Bella and the others a lot of points.
The Crystal Dragons moved very quickly and were soon approaching the border of the Forest of the Wild. The bounty hunters stationed here had already fled for their lives with emergency teleportation scrolls, leaving behind an empty camp. However, other demonic beings rushed over. One was New Moon Demonic Dragon Dorothea in a moon white elven dragon form, and the other was the sea blue oriental dragon-formed Sea Demonic Dragon Amy Beth. After receiving Bella’s summons, they teleported via teleportation magic to the Forest of the Wild and were planning to meet up with Bella and the others.
“Dorothea, did you get the teleportation magic right? Where’re Mistress Bella and the others?! But this is the Forest of the Wild, no doubt about that.”
“Don’t question my magic, Amy Beth. Mistress Bella and the others are here, only… I understand. Follow me, the place is a little special. Ignore those Crystal Dragons for now. There’s still time before they reach Bella’s place.”
Guided by New Moon Demonic Dragon Dorothea, Sea Demonic Dragon Amy Beth followed her and flew to the nameless lake area. It turned out that the nameless lake area Bella and the others were in was covered by a layer of “black curtain magic”. It’s difficult for people outside to find it. The “black curtain magic” was not merely a blindfold, but also restricted people from entering and leaving.
Outside of the “black curtain magic”, a large group of skeletons were digging trenches. They felt the footsteps of the Crystal Dragons too late so they couldn’t stop them, but anything they could do to delay them will help. If they really wanted to deal with the Crystal Dragons, then they’d have to dig really deep trenches, but it’s too late for that. Their goal is to slow down the advance of the Crystal Dragons so that New Moon Demonic Dragon Dorothea and Sea Dragon Amy Beth can make it to Bella’s side, and it seems like they’ve succeeded.
In the camp by the nameless lake in the Forest of the Wild, most of the girls fell asleep from exhaustion after having Thunder Lizard barbecue. Since their clothes hadn’t dried yet, the girls simply fell asleep leaning against each other in the nude. They didn’t have to worry about the appearance of stalking beasts that would steal away their beautiful bodies. Bella secretly gave orders to the White Bone Skeleton Soldiers guarding the perimeter to kill anyone they saw trespassing.
Bella was still lying in that very enjoyable position. Princess Kriss and the others were awake, and they were just watching Bella, too afraid to sleep for fear that Bella would sneak out and attack those girls in the night. The girls were mostly defenseless, they just lay there lazily, fully in the nude, so it was the easiest for them to get attacked.
Maybe it wouldn’t be so fast for the others, but the ones closest to Bella were basically from the Rose Society, and the likelihood of Bella attacking them was high. For example, the Eight Chapters and the Holy Maidens of the Radiant Church were lying defenseless, with their snowy skin exposed just like that in the air. Don’t mention Bella, even Princess Kriss and her younger sister Lisha, who had tasted the forbidden fruit of lilies, were tempted. They actually took the initiative to bully the beautiful female captives who were imprisoned in the barracks in their fallen state.
“I have to say, you guys really don’t need to be so nervous. If I really wanted to do something bad…none of you will be able to escape. The first ones I eat up will be you.”
“Who says we’re going to run? Just rest easy, Bella, we’re all here. You…If you really can’t take it, then I…I’m fine with it.”
“You’re not resisting, Kriss? You must be trying to sneak away early. I can see through your ruse.”
“You’re overthinking it, Ariel. I…I wasn’t planning that much. If you want to join, I won’t mind.”
Swordsman Kriss’s open declaration left Mage Ariel stunned. Kriss was so open and easy-going that she had no idea how to answer for a moment and could only keep her head down, pretending that she couldn’t hear. Bella watched cozily as they bickered, feeling that the moonlight tonight was exceptionally charming. If only time could remain frozen in this moment.
At this time, a black shadow appeared in front of the full moon in the sky. From a distance in, it looked like a flying elven dragon. The once quiet surface of the nameless lake also began to ripple. A young oriental dragon rose up from the lake. Even though the two were very large, they didn’t make a single noise. It was truly amazing.
“Finally here? You two girls really aren’t fast enough. If you came sooner, then the Dark Tyrant Dragon wouldn’t have been in a lose-lose position. Also, the plan to explore the Thunder Canyon later is going to be a lot more difficult later, so hopefully you brought the stuff!”
Bella stood up and motioned for Kriss and the other girls and roommates to stay at the side while she went alone to the lake to greet her subordinates, New Moon Demonic Dragon Dorothea and Sea Demon Dragon Amy Beth. Kriss and the others didn’t follow and just stayed sensibly there. Only President Isaman’s face looked less and less confident.
This bad student Bella had naughty hands that were too good at hiding things. These two dragon-shaped demonic beasts were already existences at the level of Holy Beasts, but from their position, they seemed to be Bella’s subordinates. President Isaman was getting less and less confident with the bet she had between Bella and herself.
“Master, we were late, please punish us!”
“Master, we brought the things. This place is a little strange, it took us a long time to find.”
Dorothea and Amy Beth transformed into humanoid maidens and landed in front of Bella. They were naturally not covered up by anything. They could have covered up with magic, but if Bella wasn’t wearing anything, then it would be insincere for them to do so in front of their mistress. So, they simply “went with the flow” and showed up at the fantastic campfire party naked.
Amy Beth poured out a bunch of special fighting clothes. It was all bikini-style battlewear, inspired by Bella’s many adult-oriented fighting games from her previous life. Even though it was attractive, the actual combat resistance was tougher than that of heavy armor.
The bikini armor was originally created for military force professions, not necessarily for magical ones, but Bella designed it for the mage professions too for the sake of appreciation. None of the girls here would be able to escape this super “trap”.
The roaring sound of footsteps coming from the distance mixed in with the metallic clash of swords and armor woke up the sleeping girls. They were just about to look for their clothes when they realized that the clothes were still wet. They felt even wetter now. Besides their original clothes, each girl now had a set of sexy bikini armor in front of them, roughly the same size as the girls’ bodies. Bella had been able to collect data on the full body data of all the girls previously at the Christian Hotel’s pool.
“Everyone, we of the Rose Society are heading to the Thunder Canyon for shelter. There is a major outbreak in the Crystal Dragon Lair in Dusk Valley, and a large number of Crystal Dragons are coming over. The way back is cut off now. Those who wish to follow the Rose Society, put on the bikini armor in front of you and follow us. If you wish to retreat back and head west, you’ll be able to reach the bounty hunter’s camp in the Cloud Sea Basin.”
Faced with Bella’s ploy, a large number of girls thought about it, but still put on the extremely embarrassing bikini battle armor in front of them and followed Bella’s Rose Society to the Thunder Canyon. The bounty hunter camp at the Forest of the Wild has already been destroyed by the Dark Goblins, and the return teleportation magic array setup there had been converted into a magic teleportation array to Thunder Canyon. With the assistance of New Moon Demonic Dragon Dorothea to help repair it, it managed to recover from the fire and can be used to teleport there directly so they can take refuge in the Thunder Canyon.
Early on at Christian Hotel, the participating female students of Olsylvia Academy had already tried on the bikini swimsuits, so it wasn’t as shameful to put on the similar-looking battle armor. Bella had everything set up for the girls at the start to get them used to accepting bikini swimsuits as a product.
The Thunder Canyon has its own magic boundary that isolates it from the rest of the dragon race bloodline. Crystal Dragons can’t enter. Similarly, New Moon Demonic Dragon Dorothea and Sea Demonic Dragon Amy Beth also could not enter. According to their speculation, the Thunder Canyon is hiding a very terrifying thunder dragon race whose strength they cannot determine, but they wouldn’t be weaker than them.
Thunder magic restrains water magic. Even if it was the former Holy Beast Sea Demonic Dragon Amy Beth, she will still be severely restricted in the Thunder Canyon. This is the home of the thunder attribute. Wherever she, a water attribute Holy Beast went, she would also end up unable to kill even a Thunder Lizard because of the elemental weakness. After delivering the bikini armor, Amy Beth joined Dorothea to help Bella transport the captured bounty hunter beauties away.
New Moon Demonic Dragon Dorothea wanted to go, but she couldn’t enter the Thunder Canyon. She had a hint of dragon blood in her. The only one that can go is the Dark Tyrant Dragon. It suffered a lot of lightning damage from battling two Thunder Lizards in a row, mostly from the first fight because it didn’t have any equipment to protect it against the lightning, so it can only be taken into the pet space so it can recuperate from its wounds.
Through the magic of the Moonlight Teleportation Array, the girls put away their originally wet clothes and disappeared into the array. Not long after all the girls disappeared, the Crystal Dragons arrived, but the tens of thousands of Skeleton Soldiers blocking them had already been crushed in their trenches. Even the heavily-armored units are just a quick stomp for the Crystal Dragons.
“They actually all escaped…Damn it, this magic aura…Seems like they were helped by others with draconic blood. They’re not low-leveled.”
On the back of the leading Crystal Dragon is a beautiful young maiden with a loli figure. From the looks of it, she was the leader of the Crystal Dragons. She jumped down and stood on the Moonlight Teleportation Magic Array that was left behind and stomped angrily. They were one step away from catching them.
The Crystal Dragons are “illiterate” when it comes to magic. Even if she’s the leader, the strongest Crystal Dragon, she still can’t understand the complicated draconic magic written by New Moon Demonic Dragon Dorothea. Isn’t she intentionally making things difficult for her?
“To the Cloud Sea Basin. The Thunder Canyon…Forget it. As long as we capture that bounty hunter’s camp and get to the city with their more useful teleportation magic array…we won’t be caught. If only we had some hostages…”
“Leader…Our companions at the back won’t last much longer. Let’s hurry up and move! Those two damned guys are chasing after us again.”
Under the command of the leader, the Crystal Dragon group quickly made their way to the Cloud Sea Basin. Not far behind the Crystal Dragon group were two huge dragon-shaped demonic beings that were chasing after the flying Crystal Dragon group, leaving behind crushed remains of Crystal Dragons everywhere along the way. These Crystal Dragons that humans can’t even compare to become as weak as goblins before these two demonic dragons. They could kill them as easily as ants.
These two demonic dragons are unusually gorgeous, one emitting a bright green luster like that of an emerald all throughout its body. The other was even more amazing. Its entire body glimmered like a gemstone. Against the background of the night, the two demonic dragons were gorgeous like two precious works of art.
“Demonic Emerald Dragon, you move fast. That group of mining slaves actually escaped. Especially that girl, Purple Glaze. I’ve said early on that that little one has had a longing of freedom in her eyes and told you to lock her up with more chains, but you wouldn’t listen. If something big happens later, Master will…”
“Don’t worry, Gem Dragon. They won’t be able to head into a human city. If it wasn’t for that nasty group of humans prying open the seal array, how could the Crystal Dragons have a chance to escape…As long as they don’t go to the Thunder Canyon, the two forbidden high-ranking existences in the Cloud Sea Basin have already returned to their masters. That group of Crystal Dragons would only be caught if they went…”
The ones chasing after the Crystal Dragons were the Demonic Emerald Dragon and the Gem Dragon. These two are under one of the two evil gods secretly controlling Manasvir Empire’s Imperial City, the Netherworld Creator. The Crystal Dragon’s lair in Dusk Valley is actually a slave house enslaving the Crystal Dragons to excavate precious minerals. The Crystal Dragons’ mining abilities are several times stronger than that of the Goblin laborers.
This time, among the ones participating in the competition in Olsylvia Academy was one of the male Saviors, God Chosen Knight Scott. Scott’s character had already erupted and with the usual s*** luck of a Savior, he directly broke the entrapment array, releasing the imprisoned Crystal Dragons. It’s a pity that he wasn’t able to hold on, because if he held on a little longer, he might have been able to act in a heroic rescue play, taking the leader of the Crystal Dragons, a beautiful loli maiden, into his harem. Now, he could be considered to have given another transmigrator the cheap pass.
The Thunder Canyon’s environment was way beyond Bella’s expectations. Based on the lush forest environment of the Forest of the Wild, she estimated that no matter how bad the Thunder Canyon was, it should at least have some trees and vegetation! But truth was, the Thunder Canyon was not the same world as the Forest of the Wild at all.
This is a special area of desolate desert mixed in with oases. The blazing sun burned overhead, constantly baking the earth, and there were only a few small oases, the rest was a desert. Even though there wasn’t a sandstorm blowing yet, with so few trees and vegetation, it would be a tricky natural disaster if a sandstorm ever came blowing through.
There was a special layer of a translucent magical barrier in the sky, blocking the ultraviolet rays of the sun, but not the heat. It was fortunate that the girls were all wearing bikinis, otherwise the heat would be unbearable. At least, it was still within their tolerance range. The girls had gotten so hot and sweaty that the girls who were complaining about being forced to wear bikinis all shut up. It was too hot in the Thunder Canyon. Some of the girls even wanted to take off their bikini tops, but they could only endure it if nobody was going to do it first.
The environment of the Thunder Canyon felt to Bella like a re-creation of the environment on Earth in prehistoric eras before the extinction of dinosaurs with a barren desert everywhere. The place had sparse vegetation, and Thunder Lizard skeletons were all over the place. This scene caused Bella to wonder if she stepped onto the wrong set, or if New Moon Demonic Dragon Dorothea was playing her on purpose, or if they were teleported somewhere else on mistake.
“Strange, this is Thunder Canyon on the map, there’s no mistaking it!”
Bella took out the map and looked around, finding no faults. They weren’t off the location depicted on the map at all. And, before coming here, Bella had proofread the map specifically and the other points lined up perfectly. Still, the sharp-eyed President Isaman who was first to discover the problem with the map gave Bella a rude awakening.”
“Bella, this map of yours… is at least a few hundred years old. The environment changed long ago. Your map is outdated…The Thunder Canyon no longer looks as it did hundreds of years ago.”
