Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 798 - Stressful Talk With Aemie

Arthur on the other hand was pushing his way through a dense pact of mages and monsters. Each step he took seemed to take ages yet he was at least moving forward.

The portal was drawing so near to him, and yet he felt it was miles far. The area around him kept flashing densely until all he could see now mostly was the silver white portals appearing everywhere with afterimages of people coming in and out from them.

Sounds of attacks rang all over the place while the dead bodies of those enemies kept piling up in hills. And he flew in the only valley in between them, like the valley of death.

"Hang on Gege," he kept encouraging his girl, "we are almost there."

It was less than fifty meters now, yet he couldn't take a single step forward. It wasn't a matter of many enemies attacking, but the entire road was blocked by endless bodies of mages and monsters.

They seemed to throw away their lives and simply crowded together, laying over each other to form a giant dam blocking his path.

'You should fly over them,' the golden dragon instructed,'hurry before they block the sky!'

Arthur saw Gege adapt and change the arrangement of the portals. Right now not a single enemy pushed his way towards Arthur. They all put this dam as their last line of defense.

And they started to form a dome shaped meat shield around the portal aiming to hide its entrance from him.

If they did that, he knew he wouldn't be able to get to the portal no matter what.

So he didn't hesitate to soar higher, fly to a level where he could bypass the dam's height.

And during this, the portals gave birth to many mages and mechas as they all lined around the dam and started raining it with their deadly attacks.

Monsters and mages started to fall like flies from that dam, yet it didn't even seem to affect it. In fact the dam just kept growing taller and thicker with each passing second.

"Each second counts!"

Arthur told himself that while gazing at the curved end of that dam. It was arching fast towards the top of the portal, aiming to cover it and seal it away.

"I can't let them do it!" he didn't hesitate to do the most reckless move here. "Gege… It's her turn now!" he shouted while flying downward in an oblique curved course like a rocket.

His aim was and still is only the portal. Yet the dam of meat wasn't the only thing standing between him and that portal.

The portal kept flushing out more mages and monsters, and they remained around the portal for a few moments before joining in building their meat dam.

Arthur didn't fear the dam, he feared this group of mages and monsters protecting it.

He knew he could bypass the dam's growth speed and reach the area beneath it. Yet things would turn ugly from there. He had to prepare for that, and that was where she would appear in the picture.

'She is ready,' Gege finally gave him the green light. He took a deep breath while preparing himself for what was going to happen. Even if he did this right, there was no guarantee for him to escape there unscathed.

Yet he was the only one who could do this.

He descended like an arched thunderbolt, trying to evade the rapidly growing edge of the meat dam. In a matter of seconds he already bypassed that edge and finally entered the space below.

And the world was filled with darkness beneath the meat dam, like there was no hope for light to be there anymore.

Even the portal started to dimly lit with strange crimson light, giving the place a more eerie feeling.

"I have to do it!" he clenched his fists and turned to face the next deadly block standing between him and the portal… a small army of monsters and mages.

"Woosh!"

Just before he could give the signal for Gege to move, a sudden flash appeared next to him as someone just teleported there.

"Aemie!!!" he was shocked to see the grandmaster of the cauldron clan standing between him and that army. "What… are you doing here?"

He wouldn't ask if not for her troubled face. That look she gave him made his heart sink. He didn't know why, but bad omen came to his mind and his gut told him things were going south.

"I have a question for you," Aemie slowly said as if the two were standing in the middle of a park. Just as she said these words, many monsters and mages jumped at the two of them from the portal.

And to make things far worse, more fell from the high up dome like deadly rocks, aiming to bring the two down to the ground.

"Stay away!" Aemie screamed in anger as she waved her sword. All she needed was just one swing and all the enemies close to the two were annihilated without exception.

And that made Arthur's heart drop in his feet.

"Why are you here?" he asked as he felt she wasn't here to help.

"I have a question for you," she repeated her last words before adding, "if you aren't honest with me, I swear I won't show you any mercy."

Arthur could only swallow his cold saliva and feel its coldness spread all over his body. He only nodded and she continued:

"This portal… there is something in there you need to stop, right?"

"It's another tower," Arthur slowly said, "or anything else that can do the same damage as that tower."

Aemie's face changed slightly before saying:

"I have one more question... This portal is aimed to break the shield, right?"

Arthur paused at her sudden question and hesitated. She looked silently at him, in a way that made feel she could see through his flesh and scan his soul with her two eyes.

At this moment, Aemie acted so weird and he felt greatly threatened by her.

'Ding! Tell her the truth,' the system suddenly said, 'Ding! Tell her what you think.'

'I… Don't have any backing to this theory of mine!' Arthur answered in his mind and at this moment, the face of Aemie changed as if she realized something.

Or heard something she never expected to hear.
