Chapter 671: Transformation?
This concern was not unfounded. The Dragon Clan had managed Aklaya Mountain for so many years, and it could be said that Aklaya Mountain was their territory. They were indifferent to those who came to Aklaya Mountain to hunt magical beasts because the adventurers could only hunt low-level magical beasts, which did not affect their strength. Moreover, allowing those adventurers to hunt magical beasts would not attract the attention of the major empires on the continent.
If the Dragon Clan truly made Aklaya Mountain a place of great importance, the major empires on the continent would surely take notice. The geographical position of Aklaya Mountain was extremely crucial; it bordered the dwarf clan, was located within the Leon Empire, had a small portion of the mountains in the Pagoda Empire, and was adjacent to the Elf Forest. In this scenario, if Aklaya Mountain became a completely independent kingdom, these forces would never agree to it.
Thus, the Dragon Clan allowed the human race to enter Aklaya Mountain to hunt magical beasts. This way, there was no loss to their strength while also keeping the attention of those people away from them. Their strategy was quite successful.
Originally, Zhao Hai did not want to exterminate all these magical beasts. However, after discovering that even the Blue-eyed Rabbits and Long-tail Chickens, which had no attacking power, were attacking them, Zhao Hai became resolute in his determination to eliminate all the magical beasts in Aklaya Mountain. At the very least, he wanted to ensure they could not become a threat.
The Dragon Clan's control over the magical beasts in Aklaya Mountain was unmatched, as evident from the Blue-eyed Rabbits and Long-tail Chickens. However, their control over magical beasts from other places was not as strong. When facing the Leon Empire, the main force was the magical beast cavalry, whose mounts were captured from Aklaya Mountain. Therefore, when the Dragon Clan attacked the Leon Empire, these magical beasts revolted alongside them.
But against magical beasts from other regions or those raised by the human race, the Dragon Clan lacked command. At most, they could scare those beasts into immobility or even scare them to death. However, they could not command the magical beasts in Aklaya Mountain to attack the human race wildly. Thus, Zhao Hai did not fly directly to Dragon Mountain but rather advanced slowly on the ground, exterminating all the magical beasts that attacked them.
The mercenaries following Zhao Hai were on the verge of madness. Every inch of the land they walked on in Aklaya Mountain was stained red; the blood of the magical beasts had completely dyed the area.
Zhao Hai calmly observed everything before him. This time, they were not facing humans, so he felt no burden while killing, much like watching pigs being slaughtered. Except for a few special individuals, no one would sympathize with those pigs; they only thought about how delicious the pork would be.
Although the attacks from the magical beasts were fierce, they lacked any organization, merely charging in a chaotic manner. For Zhao Hai and his team, no matter how many magical beasts came, they were just delivering food to them.
Galen looked at the crazed magical beasts on the screen and sighed, "It seems we made the right decision to deal with the Dragon Clan. If the divine race really comes, and the Dragon Clan commands these crazed magical beasts to attack the human race, the consequences..."
At this point, Galen's expression turned grim. He could imagine how terrifying such a result would be.
Kun Zheng sighed, "Yes, the two trump cards left behind by the divine race are truly terrifying. One is the church of light, which has indoctrinated countless people, and the other is the Dragon Clan, which has controlled countless magical beasts with their unique identity. Initially, these magical beasts would not obey the commands of the Dragon Clan like those from other regions. However, the Dragon Clan has lived in Aklaya Mountain for far too long. Now, they are completely regarded as gods by the magical beasts. Even those beasts with little intelligence are willing to accept the commands of the Dragon Clan. This is the most frightening aspect of the Dragon Clan. If the divine race truly arrives, they will have an army that fears nothing, along with the dominance of the Dragon Clan, not to mention the church of light providing logistical support and experts from the divine race standing by. What kind of situation will we be facing then?"
