Ultraman: The Dark Shadow Mage, Creating a Magic Empire

Chapter 10 The Dragon!

Norman's most immediate impression upon seeing the monsters was that these three monsters were stronger than the previous Red King!

The monsters destroying the city walls ahead looked like two standing Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Their forelimbs are also enormous, and their bodies are covered in scales, making them look like an alternative Gomora.

Beneath the frozen river lay an even larger monster. Norman couldn't see its full form, but he could make out its enormous head, which resembled a... dragon!

"Help!"

"what!"

"No! Mom!"

"My child, my child! Save him!"

That's the annoying thing about his enhanced hearing; he can hear all the screams below. His kind soul makes him reluctant to listen, but the power of his bloodline excites him when he hears the screams and smells the blood...

But he didn't care. The first thing he learned in this world was not to care.

All he cared about was how to stop these monsters, protect his warriors as much as possible, and prevent them from harming his strategic locations.

As for those who haven't become his citizens yet... well, let's save them a little, it doesn't really matter anyway.

As Norman thought about it, dark red lines appeared on his skin.

As he raised his hand, the frozen blood on the ground began to change, surging like a river and converging into Norman's palm.

Blood gathered in his hand, coalescing into a crimson greatsword.

Caitlin also rushed out at this moment, leading the Black Riders out of the city to form a battle formation.

Norman seized the opportunity, transforming into a black shadow as he leaped forward with his greatsword, charging towards the two monsters.

Based on the distance between these three monsters, prioritizing the elimination of the two rampaging dinosaur monsters is the right approach!

Norman charged forward, and the monster opposite him saw him.

The powerful aura he exuded constantly stimulated the monsters' nerves.

"roar!"

The two monsters roared and charged toward Norman, crushing the already ravaged street to pieces in their wake!

Norman drew his sword, a greatsword made of congealed blood, and struck the dinosaur monster in the thigh.

The two passed each other, and the dinosaur monster instantly fell to the ground, its thigh severed by Norman!

"They've become stronger. Does that mean the people in our country have improved their capabilities?"

Norman looked at the sword in his hand. In the instant he attacked, he felt that his strength was much greater than when he killed Red King.

It must be that the policies implemented within the Black Kingdom have led to a rapid increase in the strength of its citizens, which has then benefited them.

The reason why I didn't feel it is probably because the increase was not significant, and there wasn't the same sense of difference as the first time when the increase was huge.

Norman leaped again and killed the dinosaur monster with a single sword strike!

"I wonder if I can refine them into alchemical creatures. I'll try catching another one when I have the chance."

Norman raised his sword to kill another dinosaur monster, but just then, the monster in the river suddenly roared!

"roar!"

Norman instinctively looked over and saw a huge blue claw extending from the edge of the river.

Those claws were huge, bigger than the heads of those two dinosaur monsters!

Then the giant monster in the river crawled out.

Norman saw it; it was just like the Western dragon from Earth's mythology in his previous life—it had the head of a large lizard, but with horns on its head.

Its thick limbs demonstrate its strength and power, and its huge body is like a mountain, causing the earth to tremble with every step it takes!

"roar!"

As it emerged from the river and fully extended its wings, an icy blue color appeared in the eyes of Norman, as well as Caitlin and the Black Knights behind it.

Its wingspan alone is over a hundred meters, and this giant dragon is more than twice the size of the dinosaur monster from before!

The dragon burst forth from the great river and roared toward Norman.

Norman understood; it was challenging him to a fight!

It viewed Norman as its enemy, as an enemy that would compete with it for territory!

Norman looked at the roaring dinosaur monster, then at the flapping-winged dragon, and was momentarily at a loss.

Just then, he heard Caitlin's voice.

"Black Knights, form ranks! For His Majesty—Charge!"

"For His Majesty!"

"For His Majesty!"

The Black Riders roared, and Caitlin took the lead, charging towards another dinosaur monster with them.

Seeing Caitlin make her decision, Norman no longer hesitated and charged toward the dragon with his sword.

The dragon roared and swooped down on Norman.

Norman was not afraid at all. His powerful strength erupted at this moment, and he charged towards the dragon!

……

As Norman charged toward the dragon, Caitlin and the Black Knight also crashed into the dinosaur monster.

"Pfft!"

Caitlin forcefully thrust her lance into the dinosaur monster's thigh, then released it and galloped past on horseback.

Behind her, the Black Knights charged forward fiercely.

However, compared to Norman, the powerful progenitor of the Night Children who was almost at the planetary level, Caitlin and the Black Knights were naturally much weaker.

They rushed to the dinosaur monster's feet, using their blood magic and lances to stab at its feet and legs.

With the power of blood magic and the Black Knights, the lance successfully pierced the scales on the dinosaur monster's skin!

After thrusting out their lances, they released their grip and ran behind the monster.

This is the actual use of lances in war.

A lance with excellent piercing power is often a disposable item for the first wave of a powerful charge. Once it pierces you, you can't pull it out in time and have to just discard it, otherwise you might be pulled off your horse by the recoil!

"roar!!"

The Black Knight's lances inflicted pain on the monster, with hundreds of lances simultaneously piercing its legs and feet, almost tearing them apart!

These are all lances imbued with blood magic; once they pierce you, they will continuously cause bleeding, and the flowing blood will continuously strengthen the Black Knight!

The monster went berserk after being hurt, stomping and trampling incessantly.

The black riders that ran ahead were fine, but many of those that rushed up from behind were trampled to death on the spot!

"Damn it! That beast!" Caitlin was furious when she saw this.

"charge!"

She drew her longsword and led the Black Knights in another charge.

Seeing this, the monster swept its tail, and Caitlin pulled on the reins, mustered all her strength, and swung her sword to charge at it!

"Thump!"

The violent impact exploded, the monster's tail was thrown off, but Caitlin was not thrown out; she blocked it!

As she absorbed more and more blood, her strength increased rapidly!

Caitlin's body began to change. Two bulges appeared on her back, and her face was covered with strange patterns. Sharp teeth grew out, her ears became pointed, and her beautiful eyes turned scarlet.

She felt the power within her, then leaped up and swung her sword at the monster's tail.

"Clang!"

"Boom!"

"Roar roar roar—"

A flash of silver light appeared in the darkness, followed by a huge roar, and the monster let out a painful howl.

Caitlin successfully cut off the monster's tail!

"General, you are mighty!"

Behind her, the Black Knights roared excitedly and joined Caitlin in launching another attack on the monster.

The saying goes, "Too many ants can kill an elephant."

These Black Knights may seem like ants in front of the monsters, but their strength is not as insignificant as that of ants!
