Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 1225  Enslaved Monsters

Outer Area of the Dragon Islands...

Because of the destruction of Fire Dragon Island, many dragons, ranging from Rank One to Rank Four were patrolling the outer areas of the Dragon Islands to prevent any further attacks.

The AI of the core of the Dragon Islands was also on high alert, continuously monitoring nearly one hundred million kilometres of the area around the Dragon Islands to find the attacker.

Although the consumption of such high-level search was astonishingly high, Zalthorak didn't care about it, because what the dragons lacked most was resources.

Moreover, the cost of creating a floating island suitable for dragons according to their needs was far greater than the cost of such a monitoring program.

If they didn't monitor everything carefully and the attacker destroyed another of their floating islands, the loss they would have to bear would be far greater than the cost of the current monitoring.

Unfortunately for Zalthorak, although he was spending a fortune on monitoring everything around the Dragon Islands, the core of the Dragon Islands completely ignored Anastasia, who was lying lazily in the underground cave of the central island.

If Zalthorak had somehow discovered that the culprit who had destroyed Fire Dragon Island was staying right under his nose, and he still couldn't find her after spending large amounts of resources, he would have definitely gone mad with anger.

"What is the situation?" Zalthorak asked, holding a communication crystal in his hand.

"We are preparing the teleportation formation. It is estimated that it will take three hours at most to prepare everything," A voice filled with respect replied from the other end of the crystal.

"Good. Let me know once you are ready. I will personally receive him," Zalthorak said in a deep voice and without waiting for a response, he ended the call.

"Three hours, huh..." The mid-level Rank Six Dragon muttered in a low voice, looking into the distance. "Drozon should return before the teleportation takes place."

After staring into the distance for a while, Zalthorak shook his head and stopped thinking about it, continuing to analyze all the data that the core of the Dragon Islands was sending him.

After seeing the destruction caused by the collision between Anastasia and the Rank Six water dragon on the seabed, and finding that the person who destroyed the Fire Dragon Island had suddenly disappeared, he concluded that the person who was responsible for all these events had escaped through the sea route.

The reason for this conclusion was the defence formation that covered the outer areas of the Dragon Islands.

To enter the Dragon Islands, one must pass through this formation, and even someone like Eldrakar couldn't escape its detection. But the person who caused the destruction definitely didn't enter the Dragon Islands through the normal way, otherwise, they would have been detected by the formation.

The only way to enter the Dragon Islands without coming into contact with the formation was via the sea route. Although there were many security measures in place in the sea area around the Dragon Islands, they were still a little behind compared to the security measures taken in the sky.

There were two reasons for this: Nôv(el)B\\jnn

First, the core of the Dragon Islands monitored most of the sea area around the Dragon Islands twenty-four-seven and could detect almost all of the anomalies that could threaten them.

Second, all the high-level sea monsters, including two Rank Six ones, living in the sea water area of the Dragon Islands were under the control of the dragons and acted as guards, always patrolling the surroundings.

With the protection of these sea monsters, there was no need for the dragons to use manpower or other resources to secure the sea area using high-level formations.

Currently, Zalthorak was receiving reports from these high-level sea monsters using the core of the Dragon Islands, and he just received a report that after some searching, a mid-level Rank Four sea monster found a low-level sea monster who was actually under the effect of some kind of skill, enslaving its soul and allowing it to ignore its command.

Unlike most land monsters, sea monsters lived in large groups, with clear hierarchies between them.

Normally, a low-level sea monster of the same tribe can't ignore the command of a high-level sea monster, but the Rank Four monster who reported the situation to Zalthorak found a low-rank monster whose soul was enslaved by someone and due to this slave mark, it completely ignored the command of the high-level sea monster.

After discovering this, the high-level sea monsters issued an order, and soon, they found a few more monsters similar to the enslaved one.

Zalthorak's face darkened when he received this information, and his suspicion that the person who destroyed the fire island entered the Dragon Islands using the sea route grew even more.

At the same time, he ordered the sea monsters to bring the low-level monsters who were enslaved to him so that he could examine them.

In just a few minutes, a mid-level Rank Four sea monster, resembling a great white shark with a body length of more than seven hundred meters appeared below the central island where Zalthorak was staying.

After receiving the message from the mid-level Rank Four monster, Zalthorak left the central island and soon arrived above the sea, where he looked at the small crab-like monster that the great white shark was holding between its teeth.

Seeing Zalthorak, the shark monster made a growling sound and spit the crab monster into the air.

Zalthorak waved his hand, and an invisible force grabbed the crab, bringing it just a meter away from him.

"There is really a soul mark in its soul..." Zalthorak muttered in a low voice, his eyes flashing with coldness.

He was about to use the Soul Search on the crab monster to see who had placed the soul mark on it, but before he could—

Wrzz!

His communication crystal vibrated, and he received a message from Drozon, telling him that he had returned to the Dragon Islands with the person who had destroyed the Void Tunnel.
