Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System-Novel

Chapter 1653  Clash Of Armies

-----

"Ah, we sure got a terrible Territory for us, it's all just flammable forests…" Sighed Surtr, looking from his black colored castle.

To make things worse, his walls were especially weaker compared to the other Territories, made completely out of just wood!

For a team that specialized mostly on the usage of the Fire Element, this was disastrous. Their Territory would quickly catch fire and then they would be left with no strategic areas either.

To make things worse, the walls could be easily destroyed, leaving the castle exposed to even more danger.

"If only I could go and touch the walls, I could immediately combine them with Materials I have and reinforce it, but I can't step out of my castle, or I'll be disqualified."

"I guess we'll have to take care of things on our own then, Master Surtr!" Jamar said, resting his long sword over his armor-covered little shoulders.

"Don't worry, it's not like we are defenseless, the shields we were given are very tough," Nadia said.

"That's right! We'll fight and defend the territory, you sit back and relax," Mina smiled.

"You three are taking this way too easily! A whole army of Demons is coming…" Surtr felt frustrated. "Dammit, now I see the challenge in this, as a Participant of the Inheritance, I am left completely unable to do a thing! Was the whole challenge having reliable and strong allies? Well, I do have that but even then, I'm worried…"

"I could probably improve the walls for you, Surtr," Emerald said. "With my abilities, and some materials, I can fuse the Heavenly Winds like I did when I made the divine equipment."

"Emerald… That would be fantastic then!" Surtr nodded. "But even then… If I release my own Divine Realm Divine Monsters, then they're going to burn the whole freaking forest."

"The forest was going to burn against Pandemonium's summons sooner or later anyways," Tyrannus offered his insight. "I would say that you shouldn't worry about it, it's a weakness which we cannot overcome, so simply take it into consideration for the next strategy."

"I guess there's no helping it…" Surtr nodded. "Well- Hm?"

"Surtr! Can you hear me?"

Surtr suddenly heard Drake's voice reverberating inside of his head.

"Yes, Master Drake, I can!" Surtr answered happily. "I assume we'll make an alliance?"

"Naturally, we must get the best scores. As long as its either of the two, it's good," Drake nodded. "Just give me whatever Divine Treasure is rewarded, I need that for my Ascendancy Law."

"Of course! Though, seeing my situation right now, I doubt I'll get the highest score…" Surtr sighed. "You have little faith on your friends, don't you? Don't be like this," Drake sighed. "First, let's switch troops."

"Troops?" Surtr wondered.

"You know what I mean, Surtr," Drake smiled. "I'll give you my Ice-Attribute Divine Monsters, and you'll give me your Fire Attribute Divine Monsters." Follow current s on novelenglish.net . (ꜰ)ire.ɴet

"T-That's… But how can we…?" Surtr asked.

"Remember the Dungeon Gate I left inside your Divine Realm?" asked Drake. "Oh, that!" Surtr nodded.

Drake had prepared beforehand, to make things easier between different Divine Realms, he had installed Dungeon Teleportation Gates in all the Divine Realms of his allies.

This way, he could easily teleport people and resources between them. It was thanks to this amazing device that he could give Surtr resources and viceversa, both were constantly exchanging resources, as they had very unique Divine Treasures growing in their own Divine Realms.

"I've already prepared one thousand Divine Frost Monsters," Drake said. "And three hundred Demonic Frost Beasts, I've already given them the order to obey you."

"Then let me do the same, thank you very much!" Surtr felt lucky that his master was here to back him up.

His Divine Realm shook as nine hundred Blazing Divine Monsters appeared, gathering together into a big team. Surtr felt slightly bad as he didn't have as many resources as Drake.

"I'm sorry master, I don't have enough… Only nine hundred for you," He sighed.

"That's fine, send them over. Enchant them with your Heavenly Smith, you can do that as long as it is inside your Divine Realm, where your powers can reach anywhere even without you making physical contact, right?" Drake asked.

"Indeed, very well!" Surtr nodded.

The skies of the volcanic landscape that was Surtr's Divine Realm rumbled, divine light surging from within as Surtr teleported piles after piles of divine materials and the souls of divine monsters he had accumulated previously.

"{Heavenly Smith}!"

FLUOSH!

Using this power, he enchanted the Blazing Divine Monsters with his Origin Flames and these materials and souls, evolving them into even stronger beings.

In seconds, the beasts of all shapes and sizes, from wolves, to snakes, hydras, flying sharks, giant lizards, bears, golems, bats, and so on gained golden and red armors their sizes doubling.

Their Auras exuded the power of Origin Flames of the highest quality!

The Dungeon Gates trembled as two armies quickly exchanged positions.

And as Drake and Surtr opened portals to their Divine Realms, Frost and Demonic Beasts appeared on Surtr's Territory and Enchanted Origin Flame Divine Monsters appeared on Drake's Territory!

"Hoh?"

The Venerable of Flames watched the scene with interest.

"So they have overcome the terrible starting Territories by switching troops, how ingenious of them…"

He quickly glanced at the incoming armies of Demons and Demonic Beasts, now numbering almost three thousand, which quickly split in almost equal numbers towards both Surtr and Drake's Territories.

"Let's if that's enough though…"

Pandemonium was watching the scene with his sharp eyes on top of his castle's terrace, he laughed out loud.

"Hahahah! Those fools are so funny! Do they truly believe their little, shitty monsters can compare to my Demons? Fools!"

He watched with a smile as his Demonic Army reached the enemy territory. Surtr's forest began to burn almost instantly, slowly, his entire territory would lose their strategic advantage and become a barren wasteland that would be incredibly easy to conquer!

"Yes, burn it all!"

As Pandemonium smiled and celebrated, his Demons clashed against Surtr's frost-attribute army.

"GROOOHH!"

"ROOAAR!"

The beasts roared, explosions of frost and demonic flames clashing against one another.

CLASH! BAAM! CRASH!

Immediately, Surtr's troops began dying, the demons were overwhelmingly strong.

Pandemonium only felt even more happier as he saw this scene.

"Pathetic, to even think you could go against my army with such feeble little- Huh?"

Yet Death was not the end of these monsters.

"Thank you for killing them so quickly, you fucking idiot."

Drake's powers spread across both territories at once.

An Aura of darkness and death permeated the corpses immediately after.

Their bodies began moving instantly.

RUMBLE!

Giant graveyards surged everywhere, phantasmal mist began blinding the sight of the demons, and weakening them, they felt their strength slowly being drained.

Several of the Undead Beasts began to combine together, as if that wasn't enough.

Their bodies changed, becoming gigantic, threatening black-colored Dracoliches!

"They… are changing?"

Pandemonium was unable to comprehend what was happening.

Drake only smiled.

"{Death Awakening} and {Divine Dracolich Phantom Graveyard} make for a deadly combo…"

The young Dragon King commanded his powered-up troops, who became several times stronger after death, to clash against the tough, invincible demons.

BAAM! CRASH! BOOM!

And the demons began falling back, being both frozen and burned by the phantasmal energies the Undead wielded.

"This is just the beginning, Pandemonium."

Drake was going to flip the game upside down.
