Chapter 727 Avalon Curse



'He knows most of these dwarves belong to other dwarf communities and already pledge to certain forces.' thought Angus inwardly.

'Still, it is not certain yet. According to the story, this King's rock should be formed to unite the scattered dwarf communities. It means there are still huge chances that King's rock could affect these people.'

'Since he didn't openly use it, it means there are some restrictions, limits, or a chance for others to resist it. It is possible Dumrod is trying to make something to enhance the King's rock power.' thought Angus inwardly.

As Angus thought of a backup plan for Dumrod, he suddenly heard a familiar telepathy voice in his head.

'Master, it is done. *Yawn*' said Draven with a sleepy tone.

'What took you so long? Did you encounter any problem?' replied Angus.

'Nope. Those dwarves are too busy to pay attention to their surroundings. Anyway, I am going to sleep now.' replied Draven.

'Wait… What did you mean by sleeping?! We still need you to get out of here.' retorted Angus.

'Nope. Too much trouble.' replied Draven.

'Fine. Then, you will become Anna and those twin playmates after we go back.' said Angus.

'.... What should I do now?' replied Draven with a serious tone.

'For now, make sure to pay attention to the lockdown barrier. The moment you feel connected with outside, notify me immediately.' said Angus as he wasn't surprised at Draven's sudden change.

As Mundus' beast, Draven rarely shows himself outside the world except when Angus calls him. However, the Twin Gemini and Anna somehow could perceive him. Anna could even catch him out of the shadow.

Previously, Anna was unable to feel or even catch Draven. After returning from Nirvas, the little monster somehow could sense Draven as long as Mundus didn't cut himself from the outside world or hide.

Although Draven is a lazy cat, he also likes to see the outside world from the shadows. He may be lazy, but his curiosity as a cat is still not gone. It is his hobby to observe the outside world from the shadows.

During this time, he could be beaten to death if he gets caught by the naughty Anna and the twin Gemini. These three little girls are truly demons when finding and catching him for the first time.

If Angus didn't rescue him at that time, one of the legendary Mundus might become a cat stew or something worse. Since then, Draven has become more fearful of Anna and the Twin Gemini.

If he only feared little Anna because of her dreadful aura before, now he truly fears this naughty girl. In contrast, Angus gets another leverage to control this lazy Mundus beast.

Then, Angus talks to the surrounding Master Dwarves for a few more minutes before parting with them. These dwarves didn't intend to help them or interfere with all this mess.

They only want to wait until the last day before they leave this place and complete the Undermine Council tradition. According to these dwarves, the Undermine Council is not just a gathering or exhibition event.

It is also one of the important traditions in dwarf culture since ancient times. During the last day, all the dwarves will gather at the Stonehall to pay respect to their ancestors.

Hearing this, Angus could only stay silent since he hoped these master dwarves didn't know that he was the one that destroyed the Stonehall.

Fortunately, none of these dwarves care about these matters, as if it is not a big deal.

As the master dwarves leave the area, Angus and Jayna quickly apprehend all the snoring dwarfs. According to the master dwarf on the rooftop, his skill effect depends on the person.

Ordinary high-grade dwarves need a few hours to wake up. But, if the dwarf has a good body and resistance, they may be able to wake up in another few minutes to one hour. Therefore, Angus and Jayna decide to catch and restrict all these dwarves before they wake up.

[Drunken Snore] skill area of effect is vast and contagious. As long as one person is near or sees the person getting hit by the spell, they will also be affected by such a spell. As a result, all the dwarves' guards in the surrounding area fall asleep without exception.

"Hmmm… Ehh… Why is Anna's roasted pork decreasing?!" asked Anna while biting her roasted pork.

"Ehhh… Porky Porky is sleeping?! Hmph!! Lazy Porky, Anna is still hungry!! Don't just copy these grass bubbles." complained Anna while moving towards the sleeping Porky.

Surprisingly, the giant Porky is not affected by the sleeping skill. He is sleeping because he decides to also follow the surrounding dwarf action.

His calm and docile nature makes him subconsciously follow the surrounding people's actions, especially regarding relaxation action.

Meanwhile, A massive lava pool covered the center of the Undermine Council. The previous lava pool from Angus' Lava Twin Swords spreads tens of kilometers away from Warchief Might [Solar Flare].

On top of this bubbling lava pool, a few dwarves fly at low heights with various burn wounds and ragged breaths. These dwarves are none other than surviving Elder dwarves.

During the last moment of [Solar Flare], they use all their strength and means to defend themselves. Unfortunately, it still heavily injures them.

Three of the Elder dwarves even died during the [Solar Flare] explosion. The dead ones are Marek Mountainfall, Thror Oakcoat, and Belmuth Ironhead.

Marek is the oldest and the most knowledgeable dwarf among the other elders. However, he is a pacifist and the weakest among the other elders. Still, his current power is a full-fledged pseudo-seventh-grade level.

Thror Oakcoat is actually one of the strongest combatants among the elders. However, his previous fight with Warchief Might has consumed much of his mana.

Moreover, as the bravest and the leader of the Silver Knight Dwarf squad, he is one of the closest people when fighting against Warchief Might. In other words, he is one of the dwarves that receive the full power of [Solar Flare] at point-blank range.

As for Belmuth Ironhead, he is simply unfortunate since he is on the way to retreat to get treatment from the fight. Unfortunately, the heat storm had already roasted his wounded body to ash before he could get treatment.

"*Cough* *Cough* They died… All of them.. Death!!" said Grimruk in frustration, trembling, and shock.

"Monster!! *Cough* *Cough*" roared Skok in anger.

At the same time, the last surviving Elder Forgus is not commenting on this horrible sight. Still, his bloodshot eyes show his hatred towards the grinning lion beastman not far from them.

"Hooo… Still, survive." said Warchief Might with a wide grin.

To everyone's surprise, the previously wounded and bruised Warchief Might's body is already completely recovered. It is as if the previous bruise does not exist and disappears along with [Solar Flare] explosion.

This makes all three dwarf elders fear Warchief Might and subconsciously take a step back. Warchief Might ignored the injured dwarf's words and observed them carefully before silently nodding in Forgus' direction.

Forgus didn't understand the Warchief Might gesture, but his two colleague elders suddenly started coughing blood continuously. Before Forgus can help them, the two wounded Elder dwarves suddenly fall into the lava pool below.

During their fall, Elder Forgus notices blood coming out from all of their orifices. With his heavily injured body, Forgus couldn't catch them in time and only witnessed their bodies roasted inside the bubbling lava pool below.

"*Cough* W-What did you do to them?!!" said Forgus angrily.

Warchief Might didn't say anything and took out a small glass bottle. Then, he threw it towards Forgus casually. The only remaining Elder dwarf wants to dodge the bottle but stops after hearing Warchief Might's next word.

"Drink it if you don't want to end up like them." said Warchief Might before glancing in another horizon direction.

The Warchief completely ignores Elder Forgus's confusion and focuses on looking at the scorched horizon from his previous [Solar Flare]. Suddenly, the seventh-grade beastman grinned widely before flying in a certain direction at a fast speed.

A moment later, a strong shockwave and explosion could be heard from far away. On the other hand, Elder Forgus could only see the vial in his hand. Inside the small glass bottle, there is a white transparent liquid.

Reading at the bottle label, he finds it is written in the common beastman language. Fortunately, Elder Forgus could still understand some parts of it.

"Remedy.. Of… Avalon curse?!!" muttered Elder Forgus.

At this moment, Elder Forgus remembers the bloody condition of his two colleagues' elders. After grimacing and shaking in fear, he looked at the shockwave and turbulence in the distance before shaking his head.

Elder Forgus silently contemplated for a few minutes before he decided to drink the liquid and fly to a safer place to recuperate. Among the other dwarf elders, Forgus is one of the elders familiar with Avalon Monster Overlord.

In fact, he is one of the people that still survives after seeing and witnessing Avalon at close range. He knows how terrible Avalon's curse and its symptoms are.
