247 Chapter 245

He didn't hesitate to give this command because it served no use to have Jagu sacrifice his life to preserve the life of a being who was not immediately useful.

Jagu nodded and pulled out the spear. Ignoring his injury, he started running once more while only holding Mrah and Kalel, who clung tenaciously to his fur out of fear that they too might turn into Jezir.

With Jin's movement technique, Aron and Jagu's speed, it didn't take long for the group to be out of range for the spears as they soon entered the swamp they had exited not long ago.

"How far are we going to go?" Jin, who was getting worn out from employing both a technique and an art at once, questioned.

Aron froze at that point and turned to look in the direction they were running. Just as the mist cleared, his eyes began to morph, exposing the countless Dracona monsters still present.

[ Aspect: Collosal Ape ]

Aron then inhaled deeply before roaring fiercely and with all his power. He was able to focus the roar, unlike the beast to which it belonged.

Due to the fact that sound travels far, having this skill would be nightmare-inducing for creatures with even more sensitive hearing.

This was true of the Dracona.

Although Evanora's attack resulted in a massacre, many people were still on the move.

But suddenly, with the addition of Aron's roar, many individuals experience instant vertigo and nausea, losing their sense of balance and falling to the ground.

Only a few were still in the sky when Aron stopped howling, signaling they were the much stronger ones, but he didn't care.

"Evanora, once more."

Even though they were still flying, their bodies were racked with wounds, leaving them no choice but to flee when another wave of flying shards formed above them.

The numerous individuals who were hurt or had their wings damaged below could only scurry around on the ground like defenseless prey as the lethal rain descended.

Holding his hurt hand, which was now slowly healing, Aron watched this slaughter with a determined look.

When the assault resumed, he noticed that many of them were still alive; the shrewd ones had used dead bodies or lesser Dracona to totally protect themselves from the attack.

"Should Evanora do it again?" Aron decided to stop there for the time being because Evanora asked confidently and without any signs of fatigue. However, he could see that her fluctuations were becoming more erratic as she used her powers more frequently.

"No, this is sufficient. Rose, kindly recall your scouters and have them carry one or two live specimens. Someone needs to answer for this." He turned and gave the order to go.

As he did so, he took off his broken gauntlet and hurled it violently, knocking the tree it hit over.

….

The previously opulent green open valley was scorched and raised in several places as a result of this frightening conflict between the two powers.

The area was now covered in several bloody bodies, many of which were no longer alive.

The remaining Dracona watched from a distance out of dread of becoming a corpse themselves once the mist had completely cleared, but Aron and his party were nowhere to be found.

They were horrified to find that more than half of them had vanished in an instant, despite the fact that they had arrived full of confidence and believed they were about to come upon yet another easy target.

This was made further scarier by the fact that it was carried out by a single group; if there were more of these creatures, wouldn't it mean their demise?

They spent a considerable amount of time observing the dangerous valley, allowing Aron and his crew more than enough time to flee.

After a few scouts determined Aron was utterly unreachable, the Dracona approached it with considerable caution.

As they hovered above the gory valley, the remaining Dracona continued to count by tens while grimacing as they observed the bodies of their slain companions and considered how, if they hadn't been lucky, it might have been them instead.

The person in the lead had a dark blue tint to his scaly, muscle-bound body as well, and as he observed the action below, he couldn't help but exhibit a very obvious expression of rage.

"How is this possible? How?!"

Those behind him merely kept silent while he roared, as though they were afraid to speak up. Only one like Dracona in the distance didn't seem fazed by the male's outburst and turned to him bearing a disfigured looking smile on the face.

"You lost badly Manuvv, accept it. Your entire colony is gone, but I only lost a few because I only brought a few with me. Now, what will you do? You're welcome to join mine and come under me, our kind will treat you well." Manuvv and the other blue-scaled brethren were made fun of by a female gray-scaled Dracona.

"Go away, you lowly gray breed!" Manuvv showed her his sharp teeth in response to her obvious taunts of him and his kin.

"Inferior? That's bold coming from a colony that's on it's last legs." The Dracona's gruff laugh was appropriate for a creature of her sort.

Due to its peculiar pitch, if a human were to hear it, they would undoubtedly assume she was attempting to frighten someone.

"I'm warning you Greile, leave! That prey will be found by me, and I will destroy it! Make yourself useful and report to the olden ones about this, they must know." Manuvv continued to speak with an angry grimace on his already imposing face, but the woman didn't seem the least bit bothered.

She merely scoffed at him before launching herself back into the air with a smug smirk on her face.

"As you wish, should you not return however…."

Greile continued to chuckle harder before taking off with the other gray-scaled Dracona. Manuvv could do nothing but furiously observe this scene and stop his enormous, three-toed bare foot on the ground, setting off a small rumbling that spread over a few hundred meters.

"Spread out and start searching, the sooner I can deal with this vermin the sooner I can focus on strengthening the clan! Don't harm any of them, perhaps they can used as tools to battle the other colonies." Manuvv expressed while no longer paying mind to the many dead bodies around him.

He had no idea that the alleged prey he was pursuing was preparing hundreds of kilometers away.
