Overgeared

Raiders and Nevartan had just destroyed their ninth Full Moon Fortress. On their way to their next destination, they had to fight an unfavorable battle. Many Absolutes were exuding blatant energy around the area near their destination.

Their attitude was, ‘If you are going to fight us, then just do it already,’ and they seemed extremely confident.

These two Absolutes were on the same level of power as the old dragons. In addition, there were six other Absolutes whose power level matched that of lower-rated dragons.

In terms of strength, Raiders and Nevartan were at a disadvantage.

Of course, they didn’t intend to avoid a fight. With their power, the old dragons were capable of causing catastrophes, so they were sure they’d win. They saw this as an opportunity to wipe out a powerful enemy.

Ray and Nevartan were speeding forward with great momentum only to stop in their tracks.

[What is that...?]

[I felt it as well.]

The old dragons didn’t make mistakes nor did they ever have misunderstandings. Misjudgments were rare because of their Transcendent senses.

The menacing energy had been there for only a fraction of a second, but it still intimidated them. To exaggerate a little bit, it felt like it threatened their lives.

The energy soon disappeared without leaving any traces behind, but this instilled a great sense of caution in the two old dragons.

[...Hayate?]

The old dragons knew Hayate better than anyone. They had been keeping a close eye on the Dragon Slayer for a long time. Lately, they had been spending half a day fighting him, so they had been observing and analyzing him thoroughly.

The Dragon Slayer had come back alive from hell. He got into trouble a few times, got back on his feet, and grew so strong, he became a threat to the old dragons.

A few months ago, when Trauka’s lair was thrown into chaos, Raiders and Nevartan faced Hayate, and frankly, they had been nervous. They could still clearly remember the friction sound caused by the transparent dragon killing energy that hovered around Hayate.

Back then, they couldn’t move rashly and could only focus their five senses on the movement of this evil energy. They had been nervous and afraid. It was very reasonable for them to suspect that Hayate was the source of the threatening energy that had just appeared.

[I didn’t detect the dragon killing energy, but... No one other than Hayate can make us feel so uneasy.]

[I agree. However, it’s surprising that Grid would send Hayate as reinforcements. There are many more Full Moon Fortresses in the West Continent. Can he afford to send Hayate here?]

[Maybe he did that to make sure we won’t cross the line.]

[What does he see us as?]

The old dragons snorted and resumed their rapid flight. They judged that, as long as they weren’t hostile to Grid, the presence just now wouldn’t pose a threat.

After a while—

Raiders and Nevartan frowned after arriving at their destination.

[There is a reason the spatial distortion here is so great.]

Three Full Moon Fortresses floated side by side. It seemed like there were four moons in the sky. But rather than being mystical and beautiful, they were ominous and bizarre.

Far from being intimidated by the appearance of the giant dragons, the thousands of cultivators exuded a ferocious energy as they split to the left and right in unison.
