Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Just as he and others waited, the first wave of mages appeared from a distance. Around two hundred mages descended on the peak from the back of flying pets.

"Lily, go back with them, and help bring more," Arthur ordered, as this batch would help them for a while, and more mages meant less pressure.

"Hmm," Lily gladly complied, before she went with the flying pets back to the camp.

Lily's pet of Lily was their largest, so the next batch would be huge for certain. "Listen up, take your posts following the leaders here, and summon your pets at once," Arthur ordered, as he could feel the ground underneath him trembling faintly from the large number of monsters ascending the mountain.

Arthur had already scanned the mountain, it really had a harsh nature there. The ascension journey wouldn't be that easy for monsters, many would stumble and fall from high altitude, especially when their minds were controlled by their innate desire.

The heavenly treasure he had here was a real stroke of luck, it also reminded him of Zilia, and her great help to him. without her, he wouldn't be a dragonair from the first place, or he would have lost his soul for that greedy sinister master of old times.

He and others didn't wait for long, as after ten minutes, the first wave of monsters appeared. The moment they broke from the cloud layer, heavy attacks started to rain upon them, killing them all, and causing several explosions here and there, shocking the mountain, and making more pieces of it to fall.

Arthur looked at this with delight, as if he had the ability to break this whole mountain down, he would! The explosions came in succession, and their shock wave started to stir the cloud layer, causing many gaps in it.

Arthur could see parts of the whole mountain now. As he expected, many monsters just kept falling off the mountain along the way, dying if they fell from very high altitude, or becoming severely wounded if they fell from lower levels.

The fight started hot, and the top of the mountain turned into a restricted area for monsters, covered in violent flames. After half an hour, his main mages ordered others to stop, as nearly one third of the mountain was now covered in a fiery layer, making this part shine from far away like it was made of red gems.

This long distance of fire acted as a buffer, plus it already pushed the cloud layer away, making them all see the whole mountain, and the area adjacent to its base clearly.

Monsters were falling, at a higher rate than killing them by fire. As they paused and rested, monsters who reached the fiery layer weren't able to sustain the fire, and most of them fell, while the rest died in their places, with burnt corpses.

The trees growing on the mountain started to catch fire in return, but they took quite some time to be burnt into charcoal. Arthur eyed these trees, and decided to gather them when the fight ended.

After four more hours, another batch, larger in size, of mages reinforcements came to support them. The number of mages over the top of this mountain escalated to reach one thousand in number, approximately, which helped to alleviate pressure over the present mages.

The fight started to be smoother, as every time the fire died for a bit, the leading mages would order their followers to start using the explosive ores again. After three to five waves of attack, the fire reignited strongly again, making the area top of the mountain restricted once more.

Despite the large number of killed and injured monsters down the mountain, Arthur didn't dare to throw himself down there. The mountain was surrounded by a huge flood of monsters, much larger than the previous times he used this tactic.

So, he decided to wait until he got satisfied by the results, take back the treasure, then start collecting his trophies from below after the monsters tide subsided.

The night fell on them, and the scene of the sky full of bright stars here was really unforgettable. The clearness of the sky and their high altitude made it feel as they were in another part of the world, very peaceful, very enchanting.

The fight never ceased, as monsters were crazy by the treasure Arthur had. However, not a single monster managed to lay a single foot on the peak, or even get close to it.

Not until dawn, when another batch of mages were added, making their numbers break through one thousand formally. At this time, a new wave of monsters appeared, coming from the sky.

Arthur was the first to detect them, as he noticed this dark cloud moving so fast towards them. this wasn't natural, so his senses alarmed him of the new wave coming.

"Flying monsters are approaching, be prepared!"

He took out his bow as he yelled at others to be aware of this threat. This wasn't the first time for him facing flying monsters, but they usually came in low numbers, or sporadic, making it easy to kill.

However this wave seemed more special, with their huge size, that made it easy to guess their numbers; they were in hundreds!

This huge amount of monsters were enough to startle everyone, however Arthur followed his previous warning with his subsequent instructions.

"All mages with flying pets make them fly away from here for now. when the fight starts, come and aid us, hitting the back of this monster wave," he ordered, before adding, "other mages will use the explosive ores and throw them towards the monsters when they come near here. divide yourselves into three groups.

One to face the incoming ground monsters, one to attack the flying monsters, and the rest will act as emergency teams, killing those which might set foot on this carcass."

His orders were detailed, and timely, appropriate to the situation. The leaders of his mages' army started to relay orders based on his instructions, arranging everyone into three teams.

It was lucky their numbers were enough to do that! at once, the whole mages under the large carcass were divided into three groups, the largest one was tasked by hitting the monsters in the air, the smallest one acted as the emergency team, climbing the carcass towards Arthur.

The last group remained defending the wooden wall, preventing any monster from setting foot here by keeping the fire raging.

The real fight was about to start now!
