Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Arthur kept attacking the shield with the other two without saying a comment. His mind was thinking about the advantage his enemies currently had, as they didn\'t only have pillars, they also have this strange wicked way to absorb the souls of the long dead!

That was bad!

The shield proved hard to crack, however in less than four more hours the sounds of cracking appeared, and in less than one hour it got shattered, revealing a second formation; the illusion one.

This one didn\'t take half an hour from them to be breached. The moment this happened, all the small usually seen buildings here vanished, exposing the real face of this place.

A huge single building appeared in front of his eyes, with a height reaching to five stories at least. "Tina, continue observing the workers, and when Lily comes, send her to me."

"What about her?" Tina asked, with strange aggressiveness in her tone. "She will come with me."

Arthur simply replied, before heading directly to the ground. Sara just followed up, and when both reached the front door, he wasn\'t polite and smashed it to pieces, finally entering the place.

The interior looked more vast than what it appeared from outside. The warehouse wasn\'t only five stories tall, but it appeared to have like twenty levels at least!

It was towering to the sky, with a rounded large transparent doom in the middle of the roof. "There, you will find what you are looking for there," Sara pointed her claw towards the distance, where Arthur understood the significance of this transparent dome being here.

The whole place was filled with ores extracted from the ground! The amount stored here was really huge, neatly organized in large blocks, each containing one hundred cubic shaped ore, smoothly cut and arranged to be like large bricks.

They walked in the middle of this place, where everything around was filled with these ores, lined in long, seemingly endless lines. He just glanced at all this amount, then glanding at the higher levels, feeling amazed and dazed with all this amount.

The higher levels were built to be like the ground level they were walking at, with only the main road linking the door to the centre being exposed to the roof.

That means whatever lied here was also placed in the above levels as well! A treasure! A huge pile of treasure! "I will make sure all the warriors move these under the lead of Lily."

His eyes shone with greed, as this amount was enough to create the layout of his Ley Lines design in the ground of his entire city! As for the buildings, he was sure the workers here would extract much more amount than this, enough to build ten cities, not just one!

"Should I enlarge my plans then?"

After seeing all these ores, his mind started to think bigger. He knew the building process was always the hardest, and as they were laying down foundations, then why didn\'t he play it on a bigger scale?

"I should do that, after all I have the cards to make sure I will hold this place under my own control."

He decided to enlarge and expand his current city, adding more military based facilities and defenses. He now knew part of the real strength of the dark clans here, and facing them like this without enough preparations was considered suicidal!

He wouldn\'t stand by and let them destroy all the gains he had with hard work and precious time; and so he settled on building a fortress city, one that couldn\'t be breached by any army no matter what!

As he was lost in thoughts, he finally reached the central place of this warehouse; a large empty circle with two oval rounded teleportation portals.

"Which one is the one leading to the clan place?"

He stood in front of the two, puzzled, as the two were working, flashing with arcs of lightning. They were strangely similar, with one had some red lines in it, and the other had blue!

"It\'s the red one."

"Will my breaths work on it?"

He channeled his energy while thinking of using force to destroy it. however, Sara\'s face instantly changed, as she hurried to say:

"No, wait, this can\'t be destroyed by your weak level of energy."

He glanced at her in question, as she explained:

"It\'s a very high grade form of portal that is fortified heavily in the main clan home. If you use force upon it, the only result will be for a retaliation attack to erupt and destroy the whole place down!"

He got an instant scare! He wouldn\'t dare to risk losing all these precious ores! "What should I do?"

"A formation should be fought with a formation. Do you know any sealing arrays?"

He strangely glanced at her, as he already had one formation in mind, the one he used to cut down the linking circle inside the cave before. However what made him feel weird was for her to ask him about it.

"Don\'t you know one?"

She said she came from ancient times where formations were known and highly advanced there! "Not everyone has the knowledge of such complicated things."

He glanced deeply at her, as her reply was kinda logical, but he didn\'t buy it so far. "What are you proficient at then?" he asked.

She seemed hesitant, before sighing as she said:

"It\'s something related to the structure of empires and kingdoms."

He didn\'t understand, and she just expected him to be. "Listen, in old times, there were no clans, there were only empires and kingdoms. My specialty back then was called an empire maker."

Her words didn\'t serve except for adding more puzzlement to him. "I\'m the one they seek if a new power is rising, so I can guide them and make this power grow to be an empire," she added, trying to simplify things to him.

Arthur wasn\'t familiar with these concepts.. Back in his cultivation world, he only had some sects joining together to rule land under the name of kingdoms, but this wasn\'t so popular or in the shape she was speaking about.
