Chapter 15 Monster Lord
Finally the flames stopped temporarily.
Maybe it was intentional, or maybe there was insufficient reserve.
The red dragon still hung high in the sky, staring coldly at the flying dragon below.
At this time, the flying dragon had been burned black all over and was in a mess, with no trace of its original majestic appearance.
However, its natural recklessness and aggressiveness made it not think of escaping when it was injured, but instead it became angry and humiliated.
"roar~"
The pterosaur roared almost madly, then flapped its wings vigorously and flew directly towards the red dragon in the sky.
The thick tail was slightly bent, the muscles were instantly tensed, and the sharp tail stinger was ready to pierce at any time after approaching, injecting the deadly dragon toxin.
Just as it was about to pounce.
When touching the scales of the red dragon.
"Thunder Wave (Dragon Language)"
"boom!"
Thunder roared in the clear sky.
A strong sound wave spread out with Cassius' body as the center.
The invisible sound waves instantly blew the defenseless flying dragon several meters away, causing its wings to lose balance and fall uncontrollably.
The goblins who were watching the fun below covered their ears, and some of the timid ones even hid behind rocks, too frightened to look up.
As the dragon fell from the sky, Cassius continued to experiment with his magic.
"Witch Arrow"
A blue energy spear wrapped in shattered magic power spurted out from the red dragon's mouth and shot rapidly towards the flying dragon not far away.
The flying dragon was unable to dodge and was hit by the energy spear coming from the air. The energy of the lightning made its scales crackle and put its already scarred body into extreme pain.
However, this is not the end. A long-lasting electric arc is generated at the place where the spell hits, connecting the red dragon and the flying dragon, transmitting magic lightning all the time, and even wrapping its body with weak electric arcs.
"boom!"
The flying dragon fell to the ground, black smoke coming out of its body, and it rolled weakly a few times.
"It, it's going to fall down!"
"Help me—"
"Run—"
The goblins were so frightened that they fled in all directions, but a few of them were crushed by the huge body of the flying dragon and ended their lives.
Cassius didn't care and just landed easily.
Walk step by step to the flying dragon.
More than a dozen flying dragons surrendered.
This flying dragon is not necessary for him, but rather a good target to make an example of.
"Ow"
The two-legged dragon raised its head with difficulty and let out a weak howl, trying to express its surrender at this last moment.
But the red dragon stretched out its strong claws, pressed on its slender neck, and then pressed hard.
"Click"
The sound of breaking bones suddenly rang out.
The flying dragon's head still had the look of fear in its eyes, but there was no sound anymore.
The dozen or so flying dragons that came along were immediately frightened and quickly flapped their wings and flew over, surrounding the red dragon.
The wyverns bent their long necks, lowered their ferocious heads, and emitted low whimpering sounds from their throats to show the absolute submission of the dragons to the strong.
"Casius Claudeu Noricius, your master (Dragon language)."
"Roar--"
The red dragon stepped on the dead dragon and howled to the sky. The flying dragons also knew what to do and raised their heads and howled as well. The sound was noisy and hoarse, as if they were celebrating the birth of the new king.
After a long time, the red dragon let go of the flying dragons that were dying beneath his feet, and ordered the flying dragons to live in the caves on the cliffs of the valley.
"Cut off its head and hang it on the wall."
"Make the poison from its tail into arrows."
Red Dragon ordered casually.
"Yes, my powerful master, your might is unmatched." The big goblin waited for orders on the side, flattered him earnestly, and then drove his goblins to do the work.
"My lord, I'm afraid it's still alive."
The goblins shrank back and dared not approach the huge corpse.
"waste!"
"What's the use of you!"
Dolo's already red face turned even redder with anger, and he swung the whip in his hand.
The ensuing scolding and whipping forced the goblins to overcome their fear and step forward.
The Chimera in the cave looked at the dead flying dragon from afar, with a hint of fear in its eyes.
Lang Pu looked at the dragon's corpse, marveling at the red dragon's strength, and was delighted by this easy victory:
"Master will definitely conquer this world."
The ogre Big Head followed him and whispered in his ear, "Boss, that big lizard has so much meat, can you let us brothers have some?"
"Ouch!"
Another blow came from him.
This time, killing the chicken to scare the monkey was very effective.
Although this "chicken" is a bit too big.
A translucent blue light curtain unfolded in front of the red dragon after a long absence.

A wonderful power surged into Cassius' body.
His charisma was enhanced.
The "charm" here does not simply refer to the superficial appearance that humans talk about, it is more appropriate to say "influence".
Even if you are short and ugly, if you have extraordinary leadership qualities that can make soldiers follow you to death and conquer the world with you, then your charisma attribute is undoubtedly very high.
In Erezega, a world full of magic, if intelligence represents the internal parts such as memory and logic, and perception represents the influence of receiving information and divine power from the outside world, then charm represents the output of influence - whether it is to influence others with eloquence or to influence the world with natural spellcasting.
As a warlock, Cassius's spellcasting relies on the attribute of "charm". He uses his own connection with the world to influence the magic network and change reality with willpower.
The Red Dragon deeply felt that his connection with the surrounding elements was closer, his influence on reality was more significant, and there seemed to be an extra thread of fate between him and his clan, as if he could easily change the world with just one move.
He let out a happy roar, flapped his wings, and flew back into the Giant's Mouth Cave.
Looking down at his family members below.
Following the whistle, the ogres who were working hard to carry the logs seemed to be infected and cheered loudly while holding up the logs.
The panicked goblins also stared up at the sky, as if they saw the gods in their hearts.
Even the Chimera that was secretly spying in the cave couldn't help but lower its head. It felt a powerful aura that made it want to submit.
This is the terrifying influence of the "Lord of Monsters".
In the underground mines farther away, the dog-headed people seemed to be inspired, put down their hoes, and moved involuntarily in a certain direction. The lizardmen lit a bonfire in the dark camp and performed a primitive dance.
Some terrible creature lurks deeper in the cave, crawling on the ground.
