nMax continued to move forward in the snowstorm.

nHeavy snow rained down, and paved Max’s path forward.

nHis surroundings were a vast expanse of whiteness. Other than the sky, everything was white.

nMax shook the snow that had piled up on his wings.

nHe had already been at the Moldos Mountain Range for 2 whole days, but aside from the human settlements that he had spotted around the mountains, he had not found anything else.

nMax was in no hurry, however. After all, as an Ancient Dragon, he could easily live to the ripe old age of 12 thousand years old. 2 or 3 days was but a blink of an eye in the face of his long lifespan.

nMoreover, as a dragon, even a slumber that lasted for several months was considered to be a short nap for him.

nThe map had only given a general area in which Max was supposed to conduct his search in. However, with the heavy blizzard that robbed one’s sense of direction impeding him, Max had found it difficult, frustratingly so, to locate the Dark Snow Lotus Crystal that was supposed to treat his sister.

nWithout his sense of direction gone, Max could not even determine whether he was going in circles or not.

n

n

nAnother 2 to 3 hours passed. Max peered forward, only to frown slightly.

nHe had located his own footprints.

nFrom the looks of it, it had not been to long since he was in the area.

nWith a flap of his powerful wings, Max was launched into the air.

nFrom his lofty position in the sky, the snowstorm that plagued the region looked even more pronounced.

nMax looked into the distance. There was a village there.

nWithin the darkness of the snowstorm, the village that was surrounded by lights looked eye-catching. It reminded Max of the stars in the night sky.

nWithout a second thought, Max then flew in the direction of the village.

nThe village was not particularly far from Max. It was only a few kilometers away. For some reason, Marx had not discovered this village prior to this. The only reason he had spotted it now was due to the lights that had illuminated the village.

nIn less than half a minute, Max had appeared directly above the village.

nMax’s huge figure slowly landed in the middle of the village.

nCountless villagers spotted Max’s huge figure landing and wetted their pants out of fear. Their legs went soft as they collapsed to the ground. With terror flashing across their eyes, they shouted, “A DRAGON!!”

n“It’s really a dragon!”

n“Run!”

n“A dragon has arrived to eat us!”

nMany people chose to escape. While they fled, they made sure to alert their fellow villagers of the dragon’s existence. However, the ruckus had upset Max.

nPowerful jolts of electricity churned within his mouth. Following this, Max lifted his head toward the sky and unleashed a powerful ray of lightning into the sky.

nKrakoom!

nA frightening beam of electricity that was 3 meters thick bore through the clouds!

nThe sheer power contained within the beam unleashed a powerful shockwave within a 300 meter radius. Many of the tiles on the houses fell off in an instant, and several cracks had formed on the walls of the houses within the blast radius.

nDue to Max’s powerful blast, the dark clouds that had gathered in the sky were instantly blown away.

nThe originally gloomy sky instantly became clear. The glow of the moon had finally penetrated the atmosphere and illuminated the ground.

nThis was a skill that Max had obtained from devouring the terrifyingly powerful Dragonkin, the Lightning Beam.

nAlthough its magnitude per spell strength was nowhere close to Thunderous Divine Retribution, it did not require much Spell Strength to achieve a great deal of damage.

nBetween the two skills, Max preferred Lightning Beam more, as he considered his spell strength too low to make full use of Thunderous Lightning Retribution.

nMax’s frightening attack had momentarily stunned the villagers. They turned their heads to look at the Red Dragon in shock. Fear ran deep within their eyes.

nThrough Max’s display of power, they immediately understood that if Max had so desired it, they would have already been dead. No, they would be worse than dead, they would be disintegrated until not even their ashes remained.

nRealizing that the villagers had finally calmed down, Max slowly opened his mouth to speak with the villagers around him.

n“Bring me the person in charge of your village. I want to meet them.”

nMax’s words had once again shocked the surrounding villagers.

nThey had never met a dragon before. Living in the edge of the continent had kept them isolated from the rest of the world most of the time, and thus, the only info they had regarding the dragons had come from the rumors of the rare travelers that had wandered into their village.

nThus, the fact that the dragon, Max, was capable of speaking the human tongue had given them a huge fright.

n“You, you… You can speak human tongue!?”

nA villager mustered up his courage and asked Max.

nMax did not intend to waste his breath on these people. He glared coldly at the villager.

nThe villager felt Max’s intense glare and instantly shuddered. Although he was wearing thick clothes, but he felt as if he was not wearing anything. The frigidness of Max’s glared had seeped through his skin and chilled him right in his bones.

nHe felt as if he was locked in an ice cellar, and Max had become the executioner who decided whether he would live or die.

nHe was certain that it would take a mere instant for the Red Dragon to kill him.

nFrightened by Max’s gaze, the villager hurriedly shut his mouth.

nThe surrounding people were also silent in fear. They dared not speak a single word.

n“You have a minute to bring the leader of this village to me.”

n“Once that minute passes, you shall experience a dragon’s wrath firsthand.”

nMax looked around at the villagers and said threateningly.

nUpon hearing Max’s words, the villagers trembled.

nThey were just a small village. How could they bear the fury of such a huge dragon?!

nAn image of Bohr Village burning immediately appeared within their minds.

nIn less than half a minute, the old village chief had arrived before Max.

nThe old village chief had just returned with Osse, and he was panting.

n

n

nHe hurriedly ran to Max, and after taking a deep breath, he finally spoke.

n“Respected Mr. Dragon, May I ask why you have graced Bohr village with your presence? Is there anything that you need us to do?”

nMax glanced at the village chief and demanded.

n“Give me food, water, and any information you have about this object.”

nMax raised his eyebrows. Following this, a holographic projection appeared before everyone’s eyes.

nIt was a crystal-like lotus blooming in the icy world.

nIt was the target of Max’s trip, the Dark Snow Lotus Crystal.

nA doubt flashed across the eyes of the village chief when he saw this extremely beautiful snow lotus.

nOsse’s pupils immediately shrunk upon this sight!
